here's a review of alcohol free from an ex-once (preferred their cute style, and eventually lost interest but love the girls)
1. Voices:
momo's voice has always been nasal and not my style, but i love sana/mina/tzuyus/jeongs vocal color sooooo much. nayeon's voice sounded really pretty in icsm but it really really annoyed me in alcohol free and i feel bad that i feel this way but i cant help it. jihyos voice always sticks out because of the way she sings and i felt like she was out of place in alcohol free, singing deep and strong in a chill song... ofc this is debatable.
solid 5/10, did not suit the main vocalists' vocal color
2. Vibes:
icsm was a bop and thats what i hoped from them. no more m&m and alcohol-free type songs please. i wish twice took a missa direction instead... But the vibes for this song are great, a downgrade from icsm but still amazing.
amazing 10/10
3. choreography:
it was ok, but kind of weird in some places but the straight lines were beautiful and i did love a good part of it. twice are amazing dancers so they obv pulled it off.
great 8/10, could be better and some hand movements were straight up ugly
4. lyrics:
either this was badly translated into english or the song has pretty crappy lyrics. waiting for the japanese ver so i can actually understand the lyrics. the chorus listing out random drinks was a terrible decision and jyp should self reflect.
1/10 is it the translation or was jyp drunk writing this?
5. Melody/Music:
the background music has vibessssssss, the beat couldve gone harder in the chorus but i can hear this playing at a tropical bar so it's really pretty. will make excellent elevator music in the future.
7/10 vibe or elevator music, bop nonetheless.
6. outfits:
sweet mother of god i HATE these outfits. at least they suit the concept but theyre like really really really bland i apologise.
5/10 at least they fit the concept.
overall:
36/60 ---> 60%
upper range blop.
not icsm level but not nearly as bad as the mess m&m is
twice's best song is tbtied and no one can change my mind.
comment if u have another song u want me to review and i'll try
