I’m almost convinced that SHINee makes the music I wish TVXQ would make. I think this almost every time I listen to, let’s say, 내 곁에만 있어 (Best Place). When I actually listened to their album in full after my friend bought it for me and heard that song I was like, “woah”. There’s something very slick and modern about their music (even though most of it is sampled/a cover/not completely original). It’s cool. Even Super Junior has been getting cool music — perfect example would be Sorry Sorry. Not only was it 201838213x better than MIROTIC, the choreography was fucking fantastic. And then the songs from their repackage ♥ It’s like SM thinks TVXQ can get away with getting shitty music because they can outsing any group ever.
But back to SHINee; there hasn’t been a song of theirs that I haven’t liked. AMIGO was a little too loud for my tastes and Juliette was originally sung by Corbin Bleu, but for the most part — I really, really do like their music. And their latest song (title song, maybe?)… well, I think I’m going to love it.
