Just A Little Fangirl Love

Release date: 2026 October 01 Album tracklist: Tell Me, Five Hours in Pieces , I'll Be Okay, fool Album runtime: 14 minutes  I'm going to try my very hardest not to be as behind in October as I was in July, August, and September. Starting with TIOT.  I left this on repeat while I got up to go grab some salami because I just wanted to enjoy the song for a moment before I got all scrunchy between my eyebrows from listening. The answer is that I really just like this song. It's comfortingly energetic, which is a weird combination of words, but this is definitely a rock song with a comforting pat to the head. It's also very pretty, especially the very introduction, which is why I wanted to just spend some time with it. Like, genuinely, even though I'm not super paying attention to it, I've literally had it on repeat for roughly forty-five minutes and I'm just chilling with it. Alright. The rapping is very intense compared to the rest of the vocals, but it's ...

Release date: 2026 October 02 Album tracklist:  너란 섬 , 너란 섬 - Instrumental Album runtime: 8 minutes Oof, that's a long song. Excellent. This was apparently the Yeosu World Island Expo Theme Song, but it wasn't actually officially released until just now. I think.  The very start of the instrumental reminds me of one of the opening themes for Seven Deadly Sins, and then it becomes a lot more cheerful than I was expecting. And it sounds like there may be a little bit of organ work going on, or at least the synthesizer or the keyboard has been made to sound like an organ. We've got chimes. We've got a very prominent guitar that takes the dominant position for the aural landscape with the drums at a very close second. But this is very cheerful, and I'm happy we got the instrumental only track because then we can just hang out on it for almost four minutes. Bless the songwriters. I think my favorite thing about his voice is the fact that I don't think he could hide h...

 The turnaround on this one is quick because I am not going to be behind for October. I have not planned my October posts, technically, but I do have a shortlist of twenty songs that I've been refining for about three months. We are starting with fun because I like fun and I think we need fun. It's the most wonderful time of the year! With the kids trick or treating and everyone meeting to scream from a spook! It's the most wonderful time of the year! I did almost do Nightmare instead because I love that song, but we need the fun more. Not that I don't love this song, but I was recently reminded of how much I love that song. SHINee debuted in 2008 under SM Entertainment as a five-member group. They're the reason for the Halloween costume contest at SM, which has resulted in some fantastic costumes over the years, although Key's are definitely consistently at the top or almost the top. Married To The Music is the title track of SHINee's fourth repackaged al...

Release date: 2026 September 28 Album tracklist: 360 (Feat. MABELZ), YueBei, I See You, Dexire, Inward, 4give, 9 Album runtime: 14 minutes  Did he give us another addition to the horror songs he previously has dropped for us in his solo stuff? Both Psycho and Limbo are in my Halloween playlist, I want you to know. This is an odd set of tracks with almost half of them under a minute. It's an interesting choice. Removing those three, we're looking at about a three-minute runtime for the average. Jun, I know what kind of choreography this song needs because that is a strong beat right there. THe instrumental also gets sparkly at the end with what is possibly a bridge. It's a fun combination that does a lot for the song in its variability because otherwise it's more of a basic dance track, which is a crime against his talent. There's a lot of repetition is what I'm saying. But the beat is doing a lot of the heavy lifting because this obviously has the choreography t...

Release date: 2026 August 19 Album tracklist: BiiiG Album runtime: 02  minutes  One of the singularly best concerts I've ever seen. Full stop. Even my mom, who doesn't listen to them, said she'd absolutely see them again without hesitation. For the record, this absolutely sounds like a BIGBANG song and it doesn't sound out of place in their discography. It's a bit clingy with a simultaneously grungy guitar settled underneath the metallic clanging. But the entire song isn't that way. We've got variation and multiple sections, which is especially ideal given that this song is not even three minutes long. That's the least BIGBANG thing about this song. The introduction is interesting, before the squeal and scratch that heralds the start of the vocals, and it's also oddly James Bond. I don't know how else to describe it. Good news, they're not doing the mumble rap thing. Everyone sounds exactly like they should and Daesung has his moment where he...

Release date: 2026 August 03 Album tracklist: ABD, SUN KISS , Echo, Flip-Flop Girl, GRLS Album runtime: 15 minutes  I don't understand why HYBE didn't have this group debut at Pledis where HSS already is. Also, for all the news articles that mention him connected to After School, Seventeen, and TWS, I understand why you're not mentioning Pristin. They made a huge splash and are still angrily beloved, but they were short-lived. But NU'EST survived ten years and near disbandment just for y'all to erasure the impact they had? Really? I'm so tired of the NU'EST erasure. I actually accelerated my plan of when to post this because the backlog is large and in charge. But then I found out that this is almost a proper Pledis group and the company Pledis's first subsidiary after twenty years. The company has issues and I'm a little peeved over certain things that have happened recently. However. They are NU'EST's little sisters for all intents and purp...
