Quote from L0ok

Thats blackpink's impact. The rise of the loud title tracks is due to the popularity of blackpink and companies trying to release their own version hoping it'll just be as popular.

Yeah I should have worded it better

I meant loud songs not just in terms of instrumental but loud songs with loud shouty vocals. I know Blackpink spread the loud instrumental title tracks but I think the shouty vocal lines came from Itzy.

Quote from Jasmine_Waters

I thought you would mention the crown hand gestures they do above their head. Itzy 100% started that and now have since had others copy them.

That's interesting. Ofc I know Itzy have that iconic ending pose but I didn't know other groups did that too. Which groups have copied that?

Quote from catzi

You're right about performances but girl crush sound was 100% Bp's impact.

Yes the girl crush revival was Bp's impact. I meant more of the loud singsong chanting Itzy have in their songs.

Quote from itiswhatitisss

I think loud title tracks were mostly because of BP especially after D4

You have a point with more emphasis on hard-hitting performances and choreo though and I'd argue they brought teen crush to the forefront of KPOP for a while

Yes this is it. When I say loud title tracks I mean songs with loud instrumentals + loud singsong chanty vocals which is basically the teen crush concept.

Looking at girl groups that debuted pre and post Itzy there was a rise in girl groups with loud title tracks in the 4th gen after Itzy debuted. But their biggest impact imo is the way they changed the game for girl group performances. 4th gen girl group dances are much more high energy and dynamic compared to previous generations and we have Itzy to thank for that

Bop bop bop

Loved how smooth the song sounded

Thank youu, I'll have a listen to these

Quote from doesitneedsaying

Finland televote agrees with me he got 2nd highest score on televote in history and he didn't win

I knew it! I am biased to Loreen but I have to agree, Cha cha cha was so popular and such a fun song, I loved that it wasn't in English too so I kind of wanted it to win as well

Maybe the singer can come back and win it for Finland next time

Let's play a game called rate and recommend.

You rate the song above you out of 5 or 10 and then recommend a song of your own.

The theme is Spring songs or songs that remind you of spring.

I'll start

So I've kind of finally entered my anime era after years of dilly dallying

I've watched Spy x Family 3 times, Fruits Basket and Tokyo Ghoul S2.

I kind of want to keep the momentum up but I don't know where to start.

So please drop your recommendations for an anime that's easy to watch- as in not too many episodes, no long 1 hour episodes and maybe an addictive plot.

Quote from SooYoung

Hey

I just want to take some solo vacation and travel

Ad i just saw that london is very cheap

So i'm curious

Is London safe if you're travelling alone ?

Is it safe if your going home late ?

Is food,clothes or activities expensive there ?

Display More

Um from my experience of visiting London recently is that

Travelling on the underground/by train is pretty safe if you are going to central London (which is where all the sights/attractions mainly are anyway) since they're usually always packed. Even at night time since people come home late from work and there's the London night life, especially on a Friday evening.

The food won't be expensive if you know where to shop. Don't shop from the small Tescos, Sainsburys in central London- they will always be overpriced.

Check out the bigger Tescos, Asda, Lidl and Aldi if you can.

Clothing- if you want to buy stuff sustainably I would recommend shopping online, H&M might be a good alternative too but I feel like H&M can be found in a lot of countries so it might not be that special.

Activities might be a bit of a tricky one- what sort of activities do you have in mind?

A lot of museums and galleries are free to enter, and other attractions like the Tower of London are like £1 or something so it's just a matter of finding the right places.

Overall, if I compare London to Paris, especially for food, London is cheaper.

Hope that helps!

I've wanted to know a bit more about US college life too- like whether all the content you need for the exam is in the lectures or classes or whether the lectures/classes just skim over the content you yourself need to go into in-depth by yourself?

Quote from doesitneedsaying

I'm too pissed right now to think about lol

I'll come back later

Wait who were you rooting for this year?

Quote from Lulu_Key

I became his fan after that

I actually like most of his songs

I need to get into his discography pronto

Do you have any recommendations for what songs I should check out first?

Quote from nana18

Kyo of course and Akito is the worst

Kyo is so funny and loveable!

Yeah she's a very sinister villain, but I do appreciate how complex and human they made her at the same time

Back to their vampire prince roots but keeping their foot in the slight concept change with Karma

So all in all, I'll be tuning in for what sounds like the album of the year
