What is your absolute favorite NewJeans/NJZ song and why?

  • We're officially one week away from a big decision in a year+ long dispute between the girls and HYBE. As such, I'll be making at least one NewJeans/NJZ thread a day.


    The first we've done before, but let's do it again.


    What is your favorite NewJeans song?


    Maybe mine will change when they release new music in the future, but it may forever be Hype Boy.


    It is simply pop perfection.


    The more I listen to the song (with good ear buds), the more intricate layers I find to appreciate about the song from a music production standpoint.


    The song is just perfectly balanced. The girls' vocals flow effortlessly through the verses and culminate in one of the most addicting choruses in arguably any pop song I've heard.


    As great as the song is, the choreography expresses the message of the song and personality of the group so well that it can't go unmentioned. When you hear the song, you see those moves. You feel like you're watching a group of friends hanging out and vibing together.


    It's not a shock that Rolling Stone named it one of the greatest songs of the 21st century recently. It's no less of a surprise that 3 years have passed and Korea still hasn't grown tired of this song.


    To the BunniesTaglist that are still active here, let your voices be heard! Also, stay strong and stay positive. :cheer-bunny:

  • It’s so hard to choose, but going solely on my Spotify Stats it’s How Sweet, which is my most played song of any artist on my account.


    It’s always a bit bitter sweet watching lives of How Sweet because Hyein was going through a tough time and wasn’t there for the regular promotions, so that’s why this OT5 performance from earlier this year is my favourite rendition of it:

  • Bubble Gum. It's immaculate.

    NewJeans + City Pop was always destined for greatness and something I had been praying for since early 2023.

    It’s so hard to choose, but going solely on my Spotify Stats it’s How Sweet, which is my most played song of any artist on my account.

    If 10/30 has a positive outcome for the girls, How Sweet will surge up into a solid top 3 spot for me, due to lyrics and message of the song alone.

  • Yeah I can imagine. It's not the most upbeat or singles oriented song but I think it almost has a meditative quality. Also can we talk about the music video? It's so beautiful. I love the nods to wizards of oz, and ophelia etc.

    Oh the music video is visually stunning and one of the best productions their team has ever released. It feels like the pages of a fairy tale have come to life.

  • “Hurt” because it’s personal to me. It has this old-school West Coast R&B sound, especially with the groovy synths, that’s just so nostalgic. It sounds like something I heard as a kid growing up in California.


    It’s their only true non-OST ballad in the classical sense. I know there’s “Ditto,” which has elements of a ballad, but that’s a bit more modernized. “Cool with You” is more of a short interlude.


    Also, people don’t talk about its charting, so I don’t have to deal with that. Fellow “Hurt” enthusiasts truly appreciate NewJeans for their craft, not just charting positions. :finger-heart:


    I just have a soft spot for it even though other ones, such as “Supernatural,” “OMG,” “Hype Boy,” and “DITTO,” also make the rounds for me.


    “ASAP” was the one song I was most hyped for prior to release. The teasers made it sound so good. It got to a point where I listened to unofficial, fan-made versions and predictions on repeat. Example:

    Newjeans - 'ASAP' (DEMO.ver) by 2iO88
    Newjeans - 'ASAP' (DEMO.ver) fanmade song Arranged by 2iO88

    Such a limited but great discography.

    I'm reading this as the instrumental cycles through my autoplay and I am livid

    The best intro song and choreo I've ever heard.


    I feel fortunate to have experienced it in person once. The hype levels were off the charts.

  • For me it's this one, like if i had to chose only one NJZ song it would be Ditto remix:

    Ditto remix is my clear favorite song from them. It's just so warm and cosy and nostalgic :lighter-pepe: . But if we go by original versions only, it's a tie between Ditto and Supernatural. The beats are amazing, and the melodies and their voices just always gets me in my feels like :pepe-onions: . Also I REALLY love Supernatural lyrics :teddy-pepe: .


    Plus Cookie on the podim DEFINITLY:

    That song is for me their pop/dance masterpiece (alongside New Jeans but it's more on an intro). Cookie is their most catchy song and their biggest banger! Visuals, artwork, styling, vibes, sound, beats, dance moves, marketing etc... everything is IMMACULATE. Cookie is their POP PERFECTION!


    And of course special mention to Get up. Which if it was a full song, could easily challenge the number one position and snatch itself into the Ditto/Super best NJZ song battle :pepe-cowboy: .

  • It might be rare for somebody to say it but it’s supernatural. That song is perfection and it sounds so good when played with a good sound system or headphones. I really like how they captured new jack swing and their vocals on the track was so good . Also thought the choreography for it was good and mv was cool too . I think this song was the evolution for NewJeans in finding a new sound and it was so good.

  • First it was Hype boy, I agree with you it's probably the most "perfect" song quality wise and what made me pay attention to them that much. When they dropped OMG I became obsessed with it because for me it's the catchiest song and probably my most replayed NJ song... But if you ask me now it has to be Ditto. I'm 90% sure it's because of the current situation and how it's their most emotional song and how its concept and era fits so well the nostalgic vibe that right now is specially touching for fans.


    It wouldn't surprise me if it changes again, it's so hard to choose when you've so many 10/10s in your discography.

  • I like the original
