One Zombie, Sharing Her Love of all Things Hallyu With The World
For your viewing pleasure, here’s a quick and convenient way to catch up on some of this past week’s latest K-Pop music videos. (Hooray!) I know which are my favorites but I don’t know which videos you loved so be sure to let me know in the comments below! Enjoy!
NU’EST “Good Bye Bye”
It feels like I’ve been waiting just about forever for C-Clown to make their comeback and this week they did, in a big way, with their incredibly amazing new track, “Let’s Love”.
A fantastic mix of hip-hop and dance, with a touch of rock thrown in for good measure, “Let’s Love” makes you rethink your entire definition of what a good love song should be. You’ll find no happy-sappy, sugary sweet ballads here, just the simple confession of a boy (or boys, as the case may be) proclaiming, quite boldly, that he’s “Mr. Right” and all the other guys in the world are hosers. (Okay, so that’s my paraphrase but it’s essentially what the song’s about.) Produced by Shinsadong Tiger (known for his work with 4Minut, BEAST, Trouble Maker, T-ara, Ailee and Apink, to name a few), Caesar & Loui and Andreas Oberg, “Let’s Love” is the title track of C-Clown’s newest mini-album.
I think what I like the most about C-Clown’s “Let’s Love” aside from sound itself, is how the band is portrayed in the music video. They come across as tough, bad boys but the lyrics reveal they have a soft spot for the girl they like which makes them absolutely irresistible. I mean, let’s be honest, is there a girl in the world who doesn’t dream of being the love interest of a bad boy? (Or maybe that’s just me… I do have a thing for bad boys, you know.)
Whether you like bad boys or not, if you’re a fan of C-Clown, K-Pop, hip-hop or just good music, you ought to give “Let’s Love” a listen and you should most definitely check out the video because it’s quite the visual treat (especially if you’re a fan of Rome… Just sayin’). Of course once you’ve given “Let’s Love” a listen, be sure to let me know what you think by leaving me a comment below!
Zombie: To wrap up the month of February, we’ve decided to each pick a MV from the past month to talk about (or drool over…) so let’s get to it…
KpopKolorado: Do you want us to do C-Clown, Nelly?
Nelly: Yes. My current crack song now 😀
1. K.Will & Mamamoo “Peppermint Chocolate”
and yes, that was VIXX’s Hongbing and N dancing at the end. *Squeee!*
With so many songs being released this week, I felt bad about only being able to highlight one as my Tune of the Week so I decided to give you a chance to listen to those songs that are worth a listen but didn’t make the Tune of the Week cut. So here they are, in no particular order…
1. Rain “30Sexy”
or if you prefer, here’s the alternate version of “30Sexy”
2. Rain “La Song”
3. BEAT WIN “She’s My Girl”
4. C-Clown “Tell Me” (and just so you know, this isn’t the official MV, it’s just a “making of” MV they released as a teaser pre-release of their upcoming album Crowns)
and I couldn’t pass up the chance to put this week’s featured tune…
5. Ailee “Singing Got Better”
So which song was your favorite? Were there any I missed? Whose comeback are you most looking forward to? Let me know in the comments below!
