pretty much adore all of the songs this mini-album!

Kwon Ji Yong is gold. GD&TOP = sizzling.
Diplo collab was awesome. Tiesto & Big Bang will be EPIC.

Ahhh. So, I'm in denial but it looks like Big Bang's new album won't drop mid-November like GD had hoped for on YGTV.  I mean, "still in the middle of recording"...oi.  I hope that just means tweaking the guest features and re-doing certain final edits for a December release? /delusional

Anyhow, I'm making SHINee's "Hello Hello" relevant in a way outside of Shin Se Kyung being Jonghyun's official gf because I just listened to the English version (Holla, Holla) by J.Cates and Mohamed Ali.  Both are good, but I'm digging J.Cates' cover mainly because I find it really cool to hear a female voice cover and Mohamed Ali just sounds sooooo boyishly young. 

I absolutely adore this song.  Noona, neumeu yeppo/Replay is still my #1 fave...but jeez the uber cuteness in this MV never gets old.

Onew never fails to make me smile and laugh *cough/biased*...and he's acting like he's in one of his musical, lmao.  Taemin *pinches those adorable cheeks* is developing his voice very nicely.  Key = flawless as usual...love the way he sings "ooooh, yeah baby baby girl" soooo much.  Minho is his ridiculous awkward boyish self.  And I want Jonghyun's clothes.

Suju - No Other MV

The dance is not as good as bonamana and the song is super happy-cheesy...but they're so cute that I keep watching their performances on Inkigayo, Music Core/Bank, etc and it's grown on me. The MV is just so damn adorable, too.

Eunhyuk should always keep this haircut. And b/c of this song, I've also been converted into a Yesung/Sungmin fan.  Hankyung would've been so cute in this as well.

Man, I thought this day would never come...yours truly is officially a Super Junior fangirl.  Oh, elfs.

It's funny how the boy groups at are around my age range (86'er) debuted/gained popularity when I was away from kpop fandom (2005-2008ish)...but now in addition to being a noona fan to the likes of Big Bang, SHINee, 2PM, I'm totally converted.  DBSK's Mirotic was the song that finally did me in.

*currently downloading watching Suju's Full House and Exploration of the Human Body...freakin' HILARIOUS*

....never too late for some of this.

EDIT: news just released today (same day after I woke up, lols), YHS (YGE prez) has said that BB will be coming back at the end of AUGUST! ...now if only it doesn't get delayed and Se7en releases his album in the meantime, kekeke.

I saw and loved the release by YGE last week, and so should've posted it then...but was MIA.  Anyhow, I must post this before I head to bed.  Hoping for the release of a full album before the end of the summer.  I'm in dire need of more Big Bang music ^^

Ack! It's already 1 AM..must sleep now so I'll cut the gushing short hehe.  GD is all badass here, keke...Dae looks suave (I see those insoles, boy!) and sounds amazing, as does Taeyang (no insoles, of course). Seungri suddenly looks all grown up (voice is also changing) and TOP's hair...omg, craziness but I do like.  Except his rap part was weirdly tooo short!

And I simply adore the piano and melody. Although seems rather mellow for Big Bang...


BIG BANG, you tease~~!

............ah, this makes me look forward to the 2NE1 comeback album, too. This summer is so full of YG love.Tell Me Goodbye, the original version is still the best.  Not liking the sound of the remix...it's not really Big Bang style at all. Hands Up is catchy, hehe.  But more importantly, Kwon Ji Young and TOP finally rap in Japanese!!!!!!!!!

/need full album, please.

EDIT: Absolutely loving the Taeyang and TOP solos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
