My First Listen To Born Pink: 

1. The Happiest Girl - bye not me liking a ballad but easily the best song here... one of their best songs ngl... and jisoo sounds amazing here finally 

2. Shut Down - the chorus stuck in my head since the leak :messga: WHEN WE PULL YK ITS A SHUT DOWN!!! and the instrumental kinda interesting to hear when matched with the rapping. its strange combination but it works. not my friend calling this a blaccent mess tho lmao. 

3. Typa Girl - idk i just like it 

4. Pink Venom - that twerking bop!!! the way i was so mixed on it and called the chorus trash a month ago only to realize its the best part a month later.

5. Yeah Yeah Yeah - a chill retro bop... would be a good song with a chorus instead of a drop... it kinda reminds me of their old music... wbk a roadtrip bop ig

5. Hardest To Love - it kinda sounds like the music i used to listen to in middle school... like that country pop mixed with disney channel... rose sounds amazing tho

5. Tally - its good but its been a while since i heard this sound... like early 2010s sounding... like when cher llyod was around/bebe was big... bye the way tally wouldve lowkey been on the victorious soundtrack

8. Ready For Love - not as bad as i remember but still mid

Irrelevant

im glad blackpink did something different with shut down, although the MV concept should've been shut down as well

listened to some bsides here and there and it's definitely weaker than all their past albums/minis. typa girl sounds like another pretty savage

I actually really enjoy Shut Down, both the song and the MV. Would've loved to see them do even MORE with the MV tho. Especially since they're essentially all old sets I would've loved to see many more old props. Or maybe even old outfits reimagined? Because it seems like they're also only wearing two outfits each?

Maybe my expectations were simply too high because of those rumours of YG spending a record number on these comeback MVs but neither Pink Venom's nor Shut Down's MVs have truly blown me away.

None of the album tracks have really grabbed me tbh. I was so excited to see some Teddy-less songs when the tracklist was announced, hoping they'd finally bought some amazing demos from other writers but those songs weren't really my thing after all :smh:

@PopReaper I think this just came out last week :giveup: instantly love the chorus. It's giving early 2000s American pop-punk

 

Oh wait this is a really cute bop :music: Chanmina ha Gayle/Olivia Rodrigo moment

Hope there's a new EP or album coming soon

@PopReaper Somewhere Near Marseilles basically has a music video at this point: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i9dQZF1DX3w8qegwHz4e (I don't think GGD will embed this correctly, it's a video on Spotify of her performing the song at Sea Paradise)

I won :giveup: This has become one of my Top 3 Utada songs tbh

She also did a really cute special (interview + a performance of Bad Mode) on NHK a couple weeks ago: https://www3.nhk.or.jp/nhkworld/en/ondemand/video/2080036/

Shut Down wasn't bad but I wish they'd have picked Yeah Yeah Yeah as the title track tbh

that song cute… the verses fire and the build up is nice but i wish there was more of a chorus instead of them just saying “yeah yeah yeah” followed with some kidz bop beat drop.

LOOΠΔ's London concert was... oof!

I know some people were planning on getting there around 8am (earliest the venue said as they weren't letting people queue over night) but I didn't plan on getting there until 2pm when the VIP wrist banding thing opened for meet & greet after the show.

I think in the end people started to queue from 4am? And due to plans changing with the people I was meeting were got there around 12noon. By that point the line was almost looped around the entire building.

By 3/4pm ish the line was so long it was now stretch back down the street parallel to the first line of the queue, all the way around the next block, back up the side of the other street and down the next one 🥲

Concert started pretty much started on time just after 7:30pm

The venue tried to do a 1 minute silence for the Queen but everyone boo'd 💀

Concert was really good but my feet were killing me the entire time from standing all day so that kinda took away from it for a bit.

The VIP was a mess tho... I think it started like 2 hours late, everyone was constantly having to sit down on the floor then stand up as they shouted instructions and we thought we were starting then sitting down again when nothing happened.

The meet & greet part was literally over in 3 seconds.

I think most of them if not all of the girls recognised me (even with a face mask). HyunJin was like "hi" and then "Oh! It's you!" and Yves was like "So nice to finally meet you!"

I'd paused walking for like .1 seconds whilst the girls talked and at the end of the line the security guy pulled me along since there was now like a 1 person gap in the line 💀

Then had to go back in the queue for the group photo and merch bag.

Not sure I'd be rushing back to do it again - maybe do seated tickets next time.
