KATSEYE -- Animal
https://youtu.be/m7k9UMcHbr0?si=fp-tfzhjlXX8yamjThe other day I posted that I was newly open to KATSEYE on the strength of the "Animal" teaser, so now that the MV is here I feel I should post my opinion.
The good: I should say "better", as having the members actually singing marks a huge improvement as far as I am concerned over the awful "Gnarly" and "Pinky Up", but the song is not that interesting. Still, I am pleased that they have gone for the melodic.
A lot of people have noted the homage to "Bound", that super erotic 1996 neonoir from the Wachowskis. As I watched the MV, I was also reminded of the conceptually similar but musically superior WJSN The Black -- Easy.
The mystifying: I couldn't follow the plot, if there even was one, of the MV, and was both surprised and puzzled by the sudden appearance of Demi Moore. Perhaps there is some KATSEYE or more general pop culture joke or reference here which has not registered with me.
The bad: If I told you that "thighs" and "spicy" applied to a sequence of the MV, you would probably give me a knowing wink; little would you know that I was referring to the thighs to be found in the Jollibees Chickenjoy Bucket served with the signature spicy gravy, all on display in the MV starting at 1:54.
When it comes to product placement in an MV, some consideration has to be given to the matching of product and overall concept. The high end audio of Bose fits with the glamorous aspirations of "Animal", but nothing could be further from that glamour than a fast food fried chicken meal deal. Jollibees is less sharp suits, sexy lingerie, and high heels than graphic tees, baggy shorts, and flipflops.
Th ugly: Those bleached eyebrows! Daniela ( I think that's her name) looks like something from a horror film.
In general: better than their most recent releases, but not something I will be saving to my playlist.

Every weekend I look back at the preceding week in Kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen STAYC – 2 LOVE -- Inkigayo 260621.
Everything one might expect and want from a Kpop summer track. I was going to post the 1TheK performance video, but then I saw this stage and was taken by Seeun's bob and the pale yellows of her outfit.

Should this be added to the playlist?
tripleS -- Christmas Alone -- Special Clip

fromis_9 -- Like You Better
https://youtu.be/r1QapH1SIAI?si=Qkpvjj-_5oYSx8rAMy final post for #CarsAndTrucks is this wonderful summer song released this year by a group so many of us had given up on as lost to the industry at its merciless worst.
Wouldn't you like to squeeze into the back seat and join in with the "Whoah oh whoah whoah whoah oh whoah"?

As always, thank you for setting this up; it's always fun!
Here's my selection:
APRIL -- Now or Never
https://youtu.be/i0bA3fFmIMY?si=x34J8ApHB6ubkfE1
This was their final comeback before their disbandment. It's entertaining, but by no means up to the standard of the best of their earlier songs.
What it does have, though, is a water fight sequence with water guns that begins at 2:01!

1. Enjoyed reading Somerset Maugham's short story "The Book-Bag" while sitting in a diner eating a cheese, pepper, and ham omelette with home fries.
2. In Starbucks, the barista told me how she and her coworkers like to dip madeleines in cold foam. She gave me a free cup so I could try it out. Delicious!
3. Two Kpop groups put out performance videos that I had been wanting to see.

I'm pleased my grumpy post about "Come Over" has been noticed by YouTube/HYBE/SourceMusic/LeSserafim/TheGods ...https://c.im/@jemmesedi/114255078596512293

Every Sunday I look back at the preceding week in kpop and pick out a music video or performance that I have particularly liked. This week I have chosen Le Sserafim – Come Over.
Let me make it clear right away that I don’t think “Come Over” is a song for the ages. I don’t even think it’s the best song on the album, as I found both “Ash” and “So Cynical” more engaging musically; “Hot”, as so often is the case with Le Sserafim title tracks, left me cold. No – I’ve chosen this “Come Over” stage because of the choreography, which is strikingly different from the girl group norm. As a bonus, the wave hairdos look good and Eunchae (fun fur top) unselfconsciously confirms my belief that she is one of the prettiest idols.
