What the f*ck is going on in here on this day

(if you close your eyes it's actually a decent trot song)

It’s the way she sings and dances better than some of the current idols 💀

I love everything but the song itself :smh:
LOVE the concept, outfits and MV but the chorus is so repetitive and boring

Btw I think it's so interesting that 4K MVs have kinda become the new standard in K-pop. Even the nugu-est nugus have 4K MVs sometimes!
I was just watching Billie Eilish's newest MV and when I went to increase the video quality I noticed it only goes up to 1080p. I noticed other artists like Gaga and Beyoncé have 0 4K MVs on their channels either.
It just seems like a wasted opportunity to spend so much money on an MV and not have it be 4K, given how accessible it is nowadays.

@PopReaperai otsuka has a new song out, it's a duet with Akkogorilla (idk who that is)

It's called ”あいびき” ("Aibiki") which I think is Japanese for "Snoring." Anyway I can't find it on YouTube but it's on Spotify and probably Apple Music, so go find it :laughga: It's pretty good, not Love Tricky-quality but then again what is. Apparently they have two more songs coming out soon.

Look at the artwork:

Some indie artists I follow post their MVs in 4K. It's like just them sitting there singing and it's in ultra-HD :laughga: 

Then again Gaga isn't exactly known for being ahead of the curve when it comes to video quality. IIRC "Bad Romance" was like one of the last big MVs that wasn't uploaded in HD. And "Stupid Love" was recorded on an iPhone :lolga:

Just listened, it's pretty good :music: Hopefully one of the other songs will be an I'm lonely/affair-level bop :sis:

Fun Fact: The K in KPop stands for "Kate Bush"

Don't even get my hopes up, I still listen to I'm Lonely so often. Why has there been so few songs since 2015 that are that good :giveup: 

I can't believe that album got no singles, no MVs... she just put out an excellent electronic album and was like "okay I'm done"

The way the only visual we got was this medley video filmed with an iPhone in a hotel lobby... thrifty queen!

Parallel World is still THAT whimsical j-pop classic :giveup:

lmao I remember watching that back then and being so pissed that they play a verse of I'm Lonely and switch to the next song as it's reaching the chorus (at like 4:40). So rude. (Though "end and and" is pretty underrated)

I looked on Spotify and all the songs have so few plays, her next album (Love Honey) has so many more despite being not very good. I'm trying to think of other artists' albums that are like barely known despite being their best work...

The fact that I'm Lonely has 11k plays and I'm probably a full 5% of that lol
