Greatest Hits:: miss A: Hush
I don't actually know much about this group other than they're a JYP group and some very general details. I think one of their songs was covered on a survival show I've seen, which doesn't help. (This is also proof of the random wheel generator because if I was going to go with a second gen girl group, I'd have gone with After School or ChoColat or SNSD. I like my Pledis groups, SNSD is legendary, and I'm just a huge fan of ChoColat and they deserved more). So let's go back to 2013 and take a look at Hush, shall we?
- Group: miss A
- Debut Date: 2010 July 01
- Company: JYP Entertainment
- Status: Disbanded (2017 December 27)
- Album: Hush
- Song: Hush
- Release Date: 2013 November 06
In miss A's discography, there are few songs that stand out like Hush does. Not only is it a return to the brash and bold sound of their rookie days, but that chorus is incredibly catchy. The entire song is and manages to get away with repetitive lyrics that from a different group would have turned the song into an aggravating nightmare, but from miss A? Nah, this group has the gravitas and voices to pull it off. There's a hypnotic touch to the song that lulls you in to forgetting how repetitive the lyrics actually are. Which, realistically, they are. But this thing comes together so well that it ultimately doesn't matter. Just about every time the lyrics repeat, the harmonies change a little, which creates the most intriguing sense of textures to the song. And it's incredible.
But as catchy and seductive as the song is, that's not the only thing that most people remember about this song. So have the Music Core stage from 20131207, which I think is better than the MCountdown comeback stage because I like the individuality of the costumes here. Also, a stage that has more views than some music videos? Impressive. And I'm not sure which one she is, but her hair looks so absolutely gorgeous. You want to talk about face cards that never decline? All four of them are unbelievably gorgeous.
Hush easily ranks among one of the most iconic songs released by a K-Pop artist. Eleven years after it was released, it's still one that fans and non-fans alike return to, and fans of new groups should know.
