REAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was so obsessed with the van burens…

First BIG watch in five years…

I’m on trying to live my truth….girl

The whole song is a this old man interpolation and it EATS!! Specifically the verses: “this young girl” “this young boy”

And the bridge “knick knack patty got a fine little swag” open.spotify.com/track/6vqx1a...

The second verse has the three jacks

Fee-fi-fo-fum, better run and hide
I smell the blood of a petty little coward
Jack, be lethal, Jack, be slick (slick)
Jill will leave you lonely, dying in a filthy ditch

But enough of this cringe song let’s talk about something lighter. Cody Simpson

This is so cringe but also clever

I love songs with nursery rhyme interpolations! And this song has at least three, seamlessly integrated.

Jack and Jill
Jack be nimble
Jack and the beanstalk

And I lowkey didn’t even notice until today that those are three different things being put into one song. BUT THERES MORE OMG

and after changing management in 2024, potential finally starts to be realized again. Multiple comebacks, excellent music, good promotion, FIRST WIN, actual concert tour…that’s how it’s meant to be!

Chinese comeback is going to be special I can’t wait 😁

And by the time same time in 2023 there was more music, and still the potential was not realized. It’s not a problem that on my youth was primarily promoted in China, but the bside — more was needed

Still, omy is a beautiful and symbolic song, it’s so different from everything else, real rebirth

But the album was GOOD!!! dare I say excellent. Phantom is cohesive, but still fun and unique, really delivered some new classics. The symbolism will never be lost on me.

But still…there’s untapped potential. We gotta send them out! It’s time to fully restart. Fanmeeting tour (with no us stops)

but the group was not the same.

regardless of this, wayv pushed forward with a new era, and a title track that got the absolute bare minimum in terms of promotion. comeback postponed due to new unforeseen circumstances, to the very end of the year, rollout stuffed between several other artists

but due to unforeseen circumstances all those plans were put on hold! and picked back up after a year and a half for phantom. And really they were the same plans in many ways, same concept, same choreo, same songs even — lighthouse having been from around the same time as horizon

in the thick of a global pandemic they separated the group, back to work, to conquer different markets. and nothing was ever the same. (that doesn’t mean everything was bad)

There was a plan for that fall, new comeback, a continuation of the momentum. and now we were officially NCT…whatever

there were good songs before that, of course. love talk was already a hit. but it had been two years since love talk…something was needed

Then action figure was born and it became the poster child of wayv potential, stifled and never fully realized

I’m almost out of the deleted video trenches. I haven’t watched any of these since the mid 2010s (I’d never rewatch videos) and gahlee it’s easy to tell why they were deleted. But there’s also a bit of nostalgia there
Except the internet support groups, I did rewatch those within the last two years
