I Steh Auf Bergbauerbuam

Melissa judges some talent show, and magically gets all the dudes into more traditional and appropriate attire for the event.

voXXclub + Troglauer Buam

This is a really tough song to beat! It’s just fantastically fun sounding, has a nifty yodelling bit and it finishes up well too. I reckon this is better than Troglauer Buam’s earlier version on their own.

This seems to be a reworded French song, because when I was watching The Darjeeling Limited this year (2021), I heard the same song, under a different name in French. Chomps A Leesay, or however you spell it.
The MV’s a bit jerky, ’cos it looks like they dropped the frame rate without any blending between frames.

Gleiches Herz Gleicher Beat

I’d say this is like a rock ballad, I guess. It builds up from being quite mellow at the start to a lot more powerful at the end. The MV is all greyscale, and shows the band setting up for a street peformance, and finally everyone who paid to come along.

It sounds more like: “Ooh wow!” @ 1st than Woowa, if you ask me, but if you listen closely, I guess it’s Woowa. This is rather fun, and DIA go roller skating at a cool looking joint. There seems to be lots of neat glowing stuff around as well. I’d like to know where this is, for the record, so write in if you know.

I’m glad to hear that Westlife have stayed consistent with their original style from their early years. The group’s down to just 4 members now. I think Brian was the name of the other guy. Shane, Nicky, Kian & uh… the other dude, remain.

Yesung (of Super Junior)

This starts off a bit slowly, but it really picks up by the end, and you’ll be swinging around, getting into it. Kyuhyun and Donghae from Super Junior make an appearance too. I dunno who the chick is.
I definitely recommend checking this one out.

This one has a really synthesised / electronic-ish sound, which is apparently common to this group. Mako does the main singing, and one of the dudes follows along at a bit of a softer, deeper tone. It doesn’t end the best, but I think it’s pretty good for most of it, and a bit different to other stuff I’ve heard.

KeshYou
(КЕШЬЮ / КЕШYou)

This is quite a fabbo quick sounding song. Definitely worth checking out.

Also, is that a Mega Drive I see? It sure looks like one.

This one’s quite beautiful, and Binnie looks super pretty in her white dress, up on that rocky thing with the flower.

BunGee (Fall In Love)

This is brighter than a 1000 W lighthouse bulb! Super cheery and happy feeling.

I reckon YooA looks more attractive in this than usual. Jiho looks great with her blonde hair as well.

This is pretty much the only song I liked from NCT 127. It’s a pretty good looking video as well, with stuff done by LASERs by the looks of it.

“Oh yeah; I’d better go & check out that new Pink Fantasy video.” I said to myself 2 years ago. And holey moley! It’s just as well I did! This was one of my most favourite songs for the whole year! SeeA & Yechan come across as the 2 prominent singers in this one, if you ask me, starting with SeeA’s beginning of that sweet spot at 2:29, and ending with Yechan’s powerful, higher stuff at 2:46 to 2:52. Plus SeeA is just:

What I would do with her on a cold, rainy night.

This one’s a real gem that’ll give you a buzz and leave you feeling amazed!
I almost bought the single CD of this, but it was going to cost a fortune to get it from Korea.

Yoon Jong Shin + Urban Zakapa

A retro kind of song that sounds really superb! This was part of Yoon Jong Shin’s 30th year of doing music, and he gets involved with people who were born in 1989. (So they’re younger than me.) It’s also his monthly song for June. Everyone goes roller skating and perhaps looking mildly 1980s-ish. (Yoon Jong Shin was born 11 years before me, but we have the same birthday.)

This is a Japanese song that Red Velvet did, and it’s a really good, catchy tune.

Red Velvet go on holiday and the weather sucks. The place leaks, there’s a huge storm and the ladies end up playing under the dining table. Oh yeah, and poor Seulgi has to go up on the roof, and risks getting electrocuted to adjust the TV antenna. It’s a really great, fun song though that just demands a replay.

Probably a good one if you do feel as though you’re about to lose your rag with someone, or about something.

Oh Hayoung (of APink)

Don’t Make Me Laugh

Hayoung goes solo, and sings a real beauty of a song. Plus she looks rather good as well. This reminds me just a little bit of That’s The Way It Is, which Celine Dion sang.

This is a great song, but the MV’s like looking through the slit under a door, it’s so thin.

Holey moley. It’s like a 8:3 aspect ratio. You can barely see anything.

IZ
(Pronounced like eyes, I think.)

Apart from the squeaky bit at the end, the rest of this is really great, and that guitar playing sounds amazing.

This is a great song, although it’s not the cheery, happy kind of thing I usually go for. That said, do check it out anyway.

This is nothing to do with The Lion King either.

Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra + Narashino High School Brass Band

Kaze No Purofyi-Ru / Profile Of The Wind

One of the TSPO’s really great tunes. Get ready for the transition at around 1:56, when the whole band kicks in. This MV made me wonder what those tall, white instruments are, and they’re sousaphones (/ sousaphone tubas).

One of the best songs from Dejan. In the video, he cleans up the house, and then cooks dinner for his woman, who pops over to his joint @ the end. Let’s hope he’s still got some energy left if things turn intimate later.

This is rather great.

Now, uh… are they said like: Micro's, or it is it more like U's? Normally µ means micro. Feel free to write in and tell me!
• I think it’s like U’s, based on another MV of theirs.

This is a pretty decent song, but the video is as jerky as hell.

They probably spent an age recording it all, and then at the last moment they stuff it by doing a $#!++y frame rate conversion. It really beats my head in how so called professionals can get away with this. I’d have sacked them.

Shuka Saitō
(斉藤朱夏)

If you can get passed the advertising business saying it’s now on sale, that’s stuck there for all time, this is a pretty good one to watch.

For hockey in Slovakia. Some of you sporting types might prefer if I had something Australian, but I don’t know anything about hockey anyway, so what do I care? (I couldn’t even tell you if it’s for ice hockey or the regular kind.) Anyway, it’s an enthusiastic tune to pump you up for the game by the sounds of it, and that’s the bit I like to hear. Plus, since it’s by Kandráčovci, it’s worth a squizz, seeing as they’re often really good.
• This is actually for ice hockey, after further “research.”

This tune was just okay. Listening to it again now in 2024 makes me realise it was a bit mild for my tastes, and the ending was cr*p, but it’s better than a lot of stuff I’ve heard from Korea. (The singers are actually Japanese, but the song is in Korean.) 2 of the chicks in this were really attractive. Moko Sakura & Sara. Mm mmmm!
A couple of them were apparently AV idols, and this lead to a bit of controversy. Well, they weren’t doing anything risqué in the video, and there are plenty of other worse pr*cks and b!+¢#€s out there doing a lot more offensive stuff than what we never saw these women doing anyway. So it didn’t bother me to a great degree. I think if they’d been prompoting their slutty behaviour in the video, it might’ve been a different story.
