My Feels on 2ne1's comeback

If you, my readers, don't want to listen to a rant, don't read this blog post. :D I just had to write my feelings right now or I might burst. 

Ok, so I just watched 2ne1's new mvs last night and for me it was just perfect. I know some say they looked weird and stuff but to me they are just like I said perfect. Maybe it's because I've been waiting for their comeback for soooooo long. Actually, when I first saw it, I thought maybe it was one of those troll videos that came out because people have nothing else to do. Because in the beginning of the video, CL's lips weren't syncing with the song, or at least that's what it looked like to me. Then I see that it was released from they're main channel and I knew it was legit. I kinda liked that the video matched their teaser photos. I've heard of other groups releasing teaser photos before and it doesn't match up with the video. I loved 2ne1's teaser photos for their AON tour. I love the futuristic vibe since I'm a bit of a sci-fi geek or nerd, whatever you want to call it.

Anyways, onto the videos. I wasn't expecting 2 videos to come out at once so I was really ecstatic about finding the 2nd video. And it's a video of my favorite song too "Happy". 

The first video I saw was "Come Back Home". To watch video, go to this link  http://youtu.be/vLbfv-AAyvQ . The setting is kinda like what they normally show on futuristic movies. People hooked up to virtual reality worlds. And the girls, my queens are wanting to get back to the real world. So they set out to destroy the ones who make the virtual reality places. On a side note, I noticed Dara was the only one with a guy. (My appler heart). Anyways, it seemed like one of the reasons, she wanted to destroy the virtual reality company was she lost her boyfriend to it. It seemed like he had some kind of drug problem then he kinda got hooked on VR, hence the scene where she unplugs him later. Then it kinda looked like they tried to destroy the company from within. These are just my interpretations on what I've seen, so don't think I got this from them. These are just my opinions. The lyrics of the song...I just want to say, I listened to the whole album when it first came out and I hunted all the english translations of all the songs. I love them all. "Come Back Home" is a song about waiting for the other person to...well come back home. 

While looking through 2ne1 articles I also found this interview, http://noisey.vice.com/blog/video-k-pop-2ne1-happy-come-back-home . Apparently, Come Back Home was also a title one of the biggest Korean songs by Seo Taiji and the boys. Of course all of us Blackjacks, know is Papa YG's former group. I kinda liked the idea they did Come Back Home as shout out to him. 

The second video was "Happy". My first favorite song from the album. To watch the video, go to this link http://youtu.be/didptMJxjpE . The video looks cute, fluffy and funny, the music is upbeat, but when you look at the words, they're not really happy. It's about a girl who wishes her guy to be happy even if they're not together anymore. She's not happy but she hopes he's happy. I love seeing Dara (my goddess) with regular hair XD. I mean towards the end of the video, her hair is normal color and style. But overall, I like the video. It was shot in LA. Sometimes, I wish I lived in California. At least I could've been on the same state, they were in. 

On to the songs from the album, Crush.

1. Crush - is upbeat and the lyrics are about girl power. :D With lines like, "Whatever I do, I do it my way." "Don't be deceived by my smile because I'm dangerous.", you know it's them saying don't mess with me. To listen to this, go here http://youtu.be/OODTt2kahI0 .

2. Come Back Home - like I said from the paragraph above. Song about waiting for someone to come back home. 

3. Gotta Be You - omg...this song. I love the beat. One morning, I wake up singing, and I'm like what is this song... and it turns out it's "Gotta Be You". It's really catchy. But reading the lyrics, I can imagine a lot of fanfics will appears soon. Just from this song alone. It's about the girl is still not over the guy she broke up with. She's still waiting for him to come back. She's not over him, she doesn't want to meet new people, she wants to turn back time to when they were still together because he is her first and last love. Is that not epic or what. To listen to this, go here http://youtu.be/pbQP9Q2tNoU .

4. If I Were You - is a song about the girl wanting to switch with the guy even for just a day, so he can feel how she feels. It's really a nice slow song. Go to this link to listen http://youtu.be/zZ79oTKS4iw .

5. Good To You - first and foremost, it was co-written by GD (My king to My queen Dara) that already has like so many points. Then Dara said on the interview that it's her favorite song and it represents her well (my Appler heart again). It's a song about a girl falling for a bad boy, and he's with another girl. She's like, that girl won't cry for you or wait for you like I can because I'm good to you, and then later on realizes maybe she's to good for him and it's no use being good. This is seriously becoming my 3rd favorite. To listen to this go here, http://youtu.be/tfyHYb9slTg .

6. MTBD (CL SOLO) Mental Breakdown - this song is so catchy and it just makes you want to dance. It's got a nice beat and it's just a song about having fun. To listen to this, go here, http://youtu.be/4IpsPPuh3cQ .

7. Happy - My first favorite. Maybe it's because I've done it before. I've wished someone happy even though I wasn't happy. Anyways, like I said before I love the beat and the lyrics of the song.

8. Scream - this song was actually an older song. But it was only released in Japan. To watch the video go to this link http://youtu.be/CcV7wc5iBmw . In this song, the girl is finally over the guy, she just wants to move on with her life. 

9. Baby, I Miss You - is a song about the girl missing the guy, thinking of him all day and finally letting her feelings show. Hoping someday she can be with him out in the open. To listen to the song, go here http://youtu.be/mYOkdzk2Mmk . 

10. Come Back Home (Unplugged Version) - This is my 2nd favorite song in the album. I just love all of it. To listen to this, go here, http://youtu.be/gLEInVPziUA .

Ok. Wow that was a long rant. If you're still reading this, thank you for staying. What are your favorite 2ne1 songs? Let me know. :D

Their comeback tracks are Come Back Home and Gotta Be You. Expect another CBH MV but for the unplugged version and the MV to Gotta Be You once they're done with their promotions for CBH, since it will be their follow up title track. Also, another MV for CRUSH was put up. ^^
