When he says "feels good to be the bad guy" I-

I love it! It's been years since I've loved a title track so much on first listen. The only thing is that it's reminding me of another song, a song by Taylor Swift I think but I can't quite place which one.

One of my personal favorites. I loved it in the teasers and even more so on stage.

Mine is Chinese but it's so good

The sound was still dated for me and not innovative or interesting for both GGs and BGs

To each their own

Not really the reason I found it bad was because it was rehashing old 90s boy band/dance pop. Boy band was sort of dying in the west during the mid 00s so it felt like there was no counter part but kpop was just stuck doing old stuff.

I somewhat agree with that for boy groups. I was always a gg stan though and everything that they were releasing was fire. Afterschool with Flashback, Sistar with Alone, and 9Muses with News.

I think 2nd generation was the peak of what made K-pop K-pop. It seems like the people who weren't present always say it isn't that good. Compared to the music being released in America, it had a completely different sound and it stood out. It felt Korean. I like all generations of K-pop but the 2nd generation had a different vibe and I truly believe you can only appreciate it fully if you were present at the time. Have any of you ever considered that there must be a reason why so many K-pop fans say this?

If I'm being honest I think that Formula of Love is their worst album release to date. I like Scientist but felt that most of the b-sides were forgettable. I've always loved Twice's music and generally their full albums serve even harder than their mini albums but not this time. I still love Twice though and I'm always looking forward to their future releases

It's not true but most people on here don't give smaller groups a chance. Hi-L, GWSN, DreamNote, ICHILLIN', and fromis_9 are all groups that are basically the opposite of what you're describing. Hi-L and ICHILLIN' are the only ones that are 'newer' but everyone still sleeps on them.

I see so many people complaining about the performance being short but it's a parade guys. It's common for the performances to be short.

I was happy with it! Generally the performances aren't long so that was expected. It was pretty cool for my favorite gg to perform at the parade since I've been watching it every year since I was a kid.

No i mean like in general since there is this Macy's parade every year just to celebrate Thanksgiving. That seems extra to me so i wonder if Thanksgiving is usually a really big event.

Yeah there has been a Macy's parade every year since 1924! It's like an icon of Thanksgiving in North America, similar to Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve. It's a national holiday so I would say that generally Thanksgiving is a big event. Sorry for going on but yeah I'm American so I thought I would explain it a bit

Quote from tetetete

That's true for all groups

have u tried to share polarizing opinions for other groups u stan?

I actually have shared polarizing opinions about the music because I don't mindlessly love everything they release but you usually don't see the same result when you're within the fandom. Now, if you're outside the fandom, you must be a hater and not just someone with their own opinion. K-pop logic.

I literally love this.

I never want to see any of y'all saying Taeyeon only releases ballads again

Quote from tetetete

Fans will obviously think their faves are the best?

nothing crazy about it

You must also think your faves are the best right? That's why u stan them

It becomes a problem when these same fans (who act like BTS can do no wrong musically) attack others for sharing an opinion that they don't agree with. If you say you don't like something, then you get attacked. I'm tired of people acting like it's not true. I've been a casual listener since their debut and this is just the reality.

I'm constantly replaying these four songs lately.

I agree with this wholeheartedly. I was there for their debut but kind of forgot about them but when they released I Need U they had my full attention again. It was truly an iconic era and the song is still so good.

It really is so good for me it's on the same level as The Paradise.

I don't understand questions like this. Like are we sorcerers or wizards? We don't know the future. It's possible that they will, it's also possible that they won't lol but I'm leaning towards yes, they will.

I'm still trying to figure out how the heck y'all use Spotify. I use Apple Music but I tried Spotify and it's so confusing. Still cool to see what everyone is listening to
