Do you love me? 2ne1 Pre-MV Response (among other whinings)

... and a lot of sev-whining. Hey! It's my blog.

I am quite surprised at my lack of blog posts. Not that anyone should care, just that I find it weird. I think sevvy's activity is proportionate to TOP's appearance... which is to say not so much the past months. I dunno. I am so lethargic and unenthused as of late I think I need booster shots (you know, literal ones that would boost my enthusiasm to life). Life is so ing boring these days, I want to play Russian Roulette so I can get something out of it. I'm exaggerating, shoot me. Yes, I mean for real. On that note, I'm going skydiving this Friday... So if anyone is curious, if I die, all my stories ends horribly with a mass suicide/ homicide/genocide with a Kool Aid punch. :D No, not really. Hahaha. Oh my gad, if I get more bored, I think my head will just spontaneously implode.

Why do you think this has become less fun? I used to have so much fun at AFF. Now, I find everything either tedious or boring. Or tediously boring. Or heck-no tedious. Oh well. I mean, I used to like comments. Now I just don't. I mean there are still comments I like, but not a lot. I know, I sound like a tedious person. Hahaha. I mean to say, a dislikable person. I don't really like myself so there's no argument there.

There are just moments that I feel sorry for being me. Like the literal sense of it. Like apologetic. Ugh. I really do wish I was a rock. Under the sea. You know part of the eternal blue. Oh wow.

But, whatever, no comforts for the insane, no [mental] rest for the wicked. So let's just get into this response thingy. Not that you should care, but I do. And it's my blog, why are you even here?

 

First of, YG, oh my gad. Countdowns should not go up, it should go down. Ajdhaghdlfg. I mean, I'm cool with the delay if it's necessary. But can you give yourself accurate or rounded up estimations so you don't disappoint. I mean, you're a heck of a social media marketer but yeah, we kinda don't like being yoyo'd around like idiots, you know? I mean, this troll reputation is kind of funny, but then it lacks professionalism. I mean, everyone is excited, I know even YG company is... but yeah, give yourself the benefit of a slack... so you know, you don't drive insane fans to the depths of further insanity. You should know it's annoying, the delay is annoying (you've made us wait for a year, what's a few more hours? A few more damn whinnings from fanbrats. I know you just ignore it. But yeah, it annoys me. That's called selective audience response. You should really hire me for your international social media marketing... No not really, I'd probably tell a lot of those fanbrats to it up, and shut the up.). The wait is annoying, how you brush it off like our annoyance is nothing is more annoying. But yeah, we're just fans right. So all the whinning only makes us fools. I wish YG treated us better. I wish they acted more professional regarding releases and comebacks. Yeah, I guess I am having a bad day. Haha. I mean, I'm usually on YG side... with the delays and all that. But yeah, I wish as producers they could be more professional with deadlines and . Music is an art, but that doesn't mean they can slack off in discipline.

 

Now I kinda feel bad because I have zero discipline. Oh, well.

 

I got to see this video the minute it went out. The audio was bad... LOL. Of course it's from a practice shoot, it's not like I expected any better. But holy. I like this. Not as much as FIL (possibly because I did get to see FIL MV first), but really, in just epictastic levels. Do you love me? Is answered with a resounding yes! The practice video had me smiling within seconds. As a very biased fan, I must say that it took me several watches before I could take it all in. I mean, my neongreen-pants-M&Msweatshirt-wearing princess was a sevvy distraction. I am biased. I really, really am. Though CL and Bom's part were powerful and just whoa, sevvy's attention is just owned by Dara-princess. Never mind that I hate what she's wearing. I really do. Um. But that's beside the point. I think DYLM's tone matches Sandara's personality, it was so energy charged from the beginning to the end... It was so hyper, it was just so Dara. Of course I am playing favourites, but I do like her and I find no reason to tone down my liking of her. So yeah.

You should watch these Dara MVs. You just should.

 

Oh look at this comment:

She is definitely the female equivalent of Bingu TOP xDDDDD

Wahaha. This may be why I like them both?
 

 

I have no idea why this kind of turned out to be a Dara blog. Oh well, she distracts me. Wahaha. Oh man, let's just get back to DYLM. So I watched this last night, and was super hyped about it. I'm your good ol' regular BJ, I mean, even if I don't like 2ne1's song, I usually actually do. Haha. But yeah. This one is great! Not as much of I love this! Like FIL. But yeah, I need the MV. Somehow I feel like I've said this earlier. But , I just need to keep on track.

 

I love that slow build up in the beginning and that just slow syncing of the group. I love the D-O-Y-O-U choreo. It's snappy and cute and LOL at my DARaLING for her whole torso moving while in that opening, while the others were just mildly moving their shoulders. I don't know how Dara makes things look wrong and right at the same time. I loved the choreo, it matches the song. I mean I still think their moves were a bit knobbly and weirdly sharp but it matches the playfulness of the song. I like how it's a cute song telling a guy I'm crazy for you in a crazy way, and kind of trying to make him say it back in a very "I'm going to go bat crazy on you if you say no." It's fun funny. I just loved it. I really want to see the MV and subsequent performances. I really do. I really, really do.

When it comes to the dance, I got to say I like CL's moves the best. Just cause it's good but still not as explosive as Minzy's (which is awesome but I dunno, it's kind of hard to digest). But whatever Dara lacks in skill she makes up for her sheer enthusiasm. Bom is more like TOP (my tabisan heart despairs, but really her minimalistic moves just reminds me of TOP. It's not bad dancing. It has it's impact. Specially when she stops completely and reminds you why she's main vocal). I love, love the candidness of the choreo, the weird bunny chase part, the Dara gong was hilarious. But there was a lot of dance moves that actually looked epictastically difficult. Like waaaah. It was good, in a great kind of way.

 

As for the song. I did get a chance to buy after I actually physically stopped myself from watching the video. iTunes makes life so fantastically easy and convenient for iFans. :DDD The studio version is so much cleaner and yeah CL is not overpowering me with her vocals. That's nice once in awhile. I mean strong performances are good... just sometimes, I appreciate listening to CL not being too strained vocally. I should say, I love Bom's voice but then there'd be nothing new to that. I really am bad at trying to be fair. I do love my girls. I really do. I love Minzy's parts like I always do... but here it comes. HOLY DARA'S LOWER OCTAVE. OCTAVE? TONE? BEDROOM SULTRY VOICE WHATTTTTT? I know during their debut she was criticized for being a weak singer, having her voice autotuned most of the time to match the group. But really, I love YG for seeing her potential and really, she has more than a charming voice, it's different. It's just hard to use her, and I love 2ne1 for trying to find her niche. I mean it. It's just my baby tries so hard and recently, DYLM and FIL used Dara's voice so effectively as a good hook, I am just a happy daraling, you know? Hahaha. OMG. I should give I love you a listen. I think I like that the least but just how they deal with the love theme is so cool. Like ILY is more about obsession than true love, DYLM is about uncontained passion, FIL is about the process of finding yourself falling... you know, it's not a extraordinary take but it's still different, if you really think about it.

 

I used up all my playing favourites card so I'll just end this with I do really love you Dara. And yeah, I'll never get tired of loving you even if you do make me feel like a loser sap. <33
