Shimon: Yeah yeah yeah yeah Naokie: Oh
Emiel: I Got Love
Umu: So this is her most recent one that also came out a few days ago and I was just like this is different (Note: this is old footage)
Like I mean it's a little bit more American pop-y but still I just really enjoyed listening to it and it would be cool if you guys explained what you liked about it too
Kevin: Dabaga go
*Click*
Gwen: Oh f*** me up first of all those boots Hugo: F***ing glitter
Kevin: Tch that's pretty Yunyi: Spark-
Henry: Wow! Fiona: Oohhh
Kevin: Acoustic drum
Hugo: Oh f*** Gwen: Yeah
Kevin: Oh yeah
Yunyi: Oh it's like modern cabaret
Lindsey: Immediately oh woah
Kevin: Oh filters
Henry: Wwwwow
This is pretty intense
Naoki: I mean the voice is completely different
Hugo: Damn!
Ungh
Yunyi: That bass is overwhelming but in the best way
Henry: Is she like lowkey running a very very lucrative yet very very illegal diamond- Emiel: this is like the most diamonds
Emiel: -I've ever seen in my entire life
Henry: Trade or something Fiona: She's beautiful
Hugo: Music wise, holy sh*t! Gwen: Teehahah
Kevin: Suspensions overload
Gwen: You know those songs that when you're wearing six inch heels
Gwen: You put on and you're just- Hugo: Yeah, f*** yeah!
Fiona: Yes Henry: So much gliteeerrrr
Gwen: And you like- you walk and it's just like, murder
Emiel: Wow
Kevin: Of the kpop songs we've heard this one borders on American pop a little more than the others Yunyi: It does
Kevin: Yeah
Fiona: Oooh Henry: Oooh I see
Yunyi: OOohhhh Woah! Kevin: *flips out* that's-
Lindsey: I like how it seemed like there should be a drop but then it just went ptttptp
Gwen: And it's like- Hugo: I love this minimalism here
Naoki: There's guitar with like a modulator thing
Kevin: It's a very filtered Umu: Saxophone
Kevin: Saxophone Yunyi: It sounded almost like a flute
Kevin: Yeah
Naoki: Does it sound like a wind- It doesn't sound winded like a wind instrument Shimon: No it was definitely plucked
Emiel: This song definitely has an acquired taste to it Henry: Yeah
Henry: I don't know if I have the taste Emiel: If you don't have the taste for this, you definitely don't enjoy it
Emiel: as much as you should if you had the taste for it
Henry: Do you have the taste for this kind of music Fiona: I think I kinda like it Emiel: See I'm kinda half way which is why I'm not really gettin the full of it
Lindsey: Oh there's no beat anymore now
Umu: Is her voice good?
Yunyi: I love those fourths Kevin: Blown by the instrumentals
Yunyi: I love those fourths
Kevin: Yeah it's pretty well done
Gwen: It's- it's good for the style
Hugo: It's lower
Hugo: It's lower than most kpop artists we've listened to Gwen: yeah it's- she's- she's hella alto
Kevin: Duuuuut
Hugo: She knows how to use her range though
Kevin: I like how the- the note's a little sharp
Yunyi: Yeah yeah yeah
Again, microtonal composition
Kevin: It's almost a half step sharper
Umu: *yawns something* Yunyi: Almost Kevin: Yeah
Yunyi: It's like a little past a quarter tone Kevin: Uh huh
Henry: Ta- there was just drums for no reason
Ooh
Hey now
Kevin: You're right, harmonically it's as simple as it gets
But it totally captures the vibe
Lindsey: It- it like- It just like slightly scoops up a little it's like BWAAH BWaah Bwooh bwuuh
Naoki: It's almost jazzy with that kind of range
Like that kind of sound as well when she's down lower
Henry: I love the diamond imagery of like all- like
You know like the multiple frames, like the sort of kaleidoscopey sort of thing
And then there's the ff- the shot where she's like in the mirror
Hugo: Ooh that was good that was really f***ing good!
That vocal line had just the right amount of resonance to it
It was like, it wasn't belty but it wasn't screaming
Lindsey: You- It like-
When you're just listening to the backgrounds you almost don't really feel a strong
Naoki: Is it plugged I can' tell
Lindsey: Key or like
Whatever but I mean there definitely is one
Emiel: Sharp four
It's like sharp four to five on the top line. It's kinda uhggmh
Gwen: Hell yeah
Hugo: It was
Different but I liked it. It was definitely different than anything we've watched so far
Umu: Ok but yeah what did you think overall of that song?
Naoki: Yeah that was cool
Shimon: Very different Naoki: I'd like another listen to it I think
Hugo: This is empowerment Gwen: This is like a woman who's like rich husband that didn't really love her died
Gwen: 4 months ago and she's not sad about it
His massive champagne collection she's just like bathing in it and she's just like soooooo- Hugo: What the f*** are you talkin' about! (Same)
Gwen: Cool Hugo: What the f*** are you talking about Umu: I can see it, I could see it!
Gwen: She's a badass woman
Hugo: I d- no that I do not argue with I'm just like how did you get to that storyline
Fiona: She's fabulous she's like *sassy snap* I'm in charge
Henry: That definitely was like- Emiel: Took control of the stage Fiona: Girl you got it
Hugo: It was a really cool song, it was kind of- Gwen: I liked it!
*Hugo so done*
Gwen: That was on- Hugo: Yeah
Gwen: That was on purpose Hugo: Yeah yeah
Hugo: Ok you know what else is on purpose *Pretend punch*
Umu: HAHAHAHHAHA Gwen: :000
Umu: But she's never done this type of video. She usually does like very nature, natural
Lindsey: Oh then this is an awesome contrast to that Davis: Oh ok Umu: So this is new
Davis: Then this is incredible Lindsey: Then this is like- this is like I am woman
Lindsey: Hear me roar
Lindsey: Awwrrrrrrr hehehe Davis: Yeah that's where I'm getting all the beyonce from
Umu: Ok LIndsey: That's- that's what I'm getting from her Davis: Very female empowering
Emiel: Bass was good, the mids and the highs were eennnnggg a bit questionable
Emiel: But it was good
It was kinda- it wasn't as enjoyable as it could've been if I had like the taste for it
Umu: Mhm Henry: They used a synthesizer that kinda sounded like a very distorted guitar but it was so like
I thought that was Fender Rhodes that was really really distorted
Umu: Oh Emiel: It could've been too Henry: The Eeeng eenng unng unnnngg
Umu: It sounded like backwards saxophone to me Emiel: Honestly you can make any-
Henry: Fender Rhodes
Umu: But honestly like just what you said, you didn't get tired of it
Umu: Because I was listening and I'm like this is repetitive but *Whispers* I like it Kevin: Exactly yeah Yunyi: Yeah
Umu: *Whispers* What the f***
Yunyi: Cuz it's so funky that you just want more of it each time Umu: And like the video was so cool
Kevin: Yeah, I like how it uses video effects more than just like glamorous background
Like sometimes you know there's the little *noise* the little mosaic that kind of appears for a little bit
Kevin: It's- yeah, nice for retro Yunyi: It was so- It was just so classy
Kevin: Mhm I agree
Umu: Let's do, let's do Taeyeon I
So this is her original style. She's more of like a natural, naturey type of person *Reaction filmed a few weeks later, hence the change of clothes lol*
Umu: and this is very more acoustic and- Shimon: nature
Umu: Wait, first introduce yourself while you're feeling Gwen's hair
*WOOOO ANOTHER PERSON*
Jeremy: Hi I'm Jeremy, I am subbing for Hugo right now
I am a freshman vocalist and I have participated in the vocalists react *Ep 2 coming soon*
before but you have not seen that yet so stay tuned
Umu: Hugo is super busy (dead jk) for the next few weeks with opera
Gwen: Sooo we kicked him out Jeremy: Even though I'm in the opera too
Gwen: Yeah basically subtweet Hugo
Gwen: Get your life together Jeremy: Like @Hugo come here (That's not his handle btw)
Gwen: Hey at least he won't
Hate me
Umu: You've seen I Got Love Jeremy: I have
Umu: What were your first thoughts
Jeremy: Uh well the video was like
A little
Jeremy: Odd but Umu: Hyaahahahaha
Jeremy: Not out of line of what a lot of people are doing with American pop music as well
And the music I liked a lot except for like there was this one part of the chorus that just like
Was a little freaky
Jeremy: I don't know Umu: Freaky, is that the part where she stops singing and then it was like the weird synth part
Gwen: Nyewww
Jeremy: Yeah it's like a weird sound I don't know what it was
Umu: Yes I know what you're talking about Jeremy: Yeah it was a little freaky
Umu: Let's go
*Misses click*
*Click*
Umu: Tah XD
Henry: Look at all that ocean
Gwen: One, Taeyeon (Gwen she just told you it's I)
Kevin: Portland?
Henry: Are they in Portland?
Kevin: Oh my gosh
Henry: I love Portland, Oregon. Its- tha- that was the state of Washington (Henry you just said it's in Oregon)
Gwen: Grass
Hnenry: Aw Emiel: Got some nice photoshoots here
Henry: Oh it wasn't the state of Washington. It was Portland... Oregon
Shimon: Oh I remember her last intro too Naoki: Wait is she speaking English
*Swooned*
Henry: Wow Fiona: Is this country haha Emiel: Good voice
Henry: Is this country XDXD
Jeremy: She sounds a lot more natural here
Naoki: Man this is pretty cool
That bass, I'm liking that bass
Emiel: Yeah her voice is really good
Yunyi: Oh Kevin: Oh no what
Henry: Sevenths unnng that's beautiful
Shimon: I like that
Gwen: Also
This guy's
cool
Emiel: Some good rapping
Shimon: White people (Omg lol)
Yunyi: I just kinda wanna listen Kevin: My chem- I'm getting My Chemical Romance
Yunyi: How? Kevin: Vibe
Yunyi: Oh the duh diguduhduh Kevin: Yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Gwen: Oh don't yell at her she's really cute
Henry: What's the deal with him Fiona: You jerk
Naoki: What's that, I don't remember Shimon: SHEEP!
Naoki: SHEEP IT MUST BE FILMED IN NEW ZEALAND Shimon: SHEEP SHEEP SHEEP
Gwen: She- yeah she has an actual like
Resonance in this style
Davis: Wow I don't know how to describe this music right now
Davis: You know what I mean. What are- it sounds like
Lindsey: The whole thing's like over a tonic pedal
Lindsey: You hear like NNnnngngngnng
Jeremy: This style of music is much more suited for her voice. I'm not saying the other song wasn't it's just that they're such different extremes
Kevin: The melody is still very kpop though
Dun duh dun duh dun dun dun dun
Naoki: OH WAIT WAIT GO BACK I HAVE TO STOP IT Shimon: No no no no we can't
Naoki: Yes we have to go and see that city Shimon: We can't go back no no we're already recording
Naoki: Ok we're checking after Shimon: We can go back after we're done
Kevin: Like you don't hear that in American
Kevin: It's like so based on a pentatonic scale, I mean there are a couple of other notes but there's like a pentatonic skeleton Yunyi: You're right
Kevin: I like pentatonic skeletons
Davis: This is like straight up Caucasian, just American pop music right now
Yunyi: What is even happening harmonically
Yunyi: Has it- I feel like it just- Kevin: I think it's intriguing
Yunyi: Bit on one and moved
Kevin: Yeah Yunyi: From ch- like third relations
Emiel: There's nothing that pops out like it usually does you know there's always something weird that sticks out like right off the bat
Kevin: My life is so beauti-.... ful
Ful? *looks to umu for reassurance*
Umu: Are you liking the instrumentals and the melodic lines
Jeremy: Yeah, I liked it more so in the beginning Umu: Mhm
Jeremy: But I still really like it Gwen: Well I really like- I like the kind of strummed electric guitar in the background a lot
Henry: Is she just about to quit
Henry: Do it, Do it! Fiona: Quit your job. She's quitting her job Emiel: Oh
Fiona: She was inspired by the magic butterfly I told you
Henry: I'm out
Henry: Adios b*tch Emiel: Butterfly changed her life Fiona: Screw you
Fiona: I'm stealing your car Henry: I'm ta- hah I'm steal Emiel: Hahahaha
Henry: *gibberish*
Fiona: *Gibberish*
Davis: Yeah it's pretty vanilla I think they something to spicen it up here
Umu: Mhm
Lindsey: Do you he- There is seriously a tonic pedal going on in the entire thing Davis: Oh yeah, yeah
Naoki: That looks like a New Zealand pay machine. Like it actually does Shimon: MMMMMMmmmmmmmmm
Kevin: Oh my gosh Yunyi: Right
Yunyi: Beauty standards
Yunyi: Out the roof right now Kevin: Yup
Yunyi: Sev, one, five, three
Fiiivee, threeee
Yunyi: Seeevvveeennn Kevin: It's interesting how-
Kevin: Unlike other pop songs this one substitutes a five chord with a five like-
Naoki: She's gonna eat the flower hah Shimon: Hah I thought she had butterflies
Naoki: Oh haha
Kevin: Six four chord, one six four chord. So the bass is still five but it's like
Shimon: It's squirming inside her mouth Umu: *is eating salad and dies* Oh my god HAHahahah Naoki: Waaaiiit that acutally looks really fa- familiar
I feel like that's in Paihia (I looked that up guys I'm proud)
Gwen: Wait it has very rock vibes, like very soft rock vibes but then there's the electronic beats and
stuff like that under it with some synth
Yunyi: yeah this ch- this ch- Kevin: Product placement XD
Gwen: If she was a waitress how does she afford a BMW (She stole her boss' car remember)
Umu: Heh
Jeremy: Rich daddy (That word causes me physical pain but lol)
Yunyi: This song is like, exploiting
how the major seventh chord on one utilizes like both tonic and dominant functions (This honestly sounds like math)
Umu: It was shot in New Zealand
Naoki: I told you
Gwen: It's just so powerful
It's like overwhelming in a good way
Kevin: I guess so Yunyi: It's kinda cool cuz if you just play within the major seven chord and add in like, add in a nine
You get like scale degrees one, two, three, five and seven. And then so you can build dominant and tonic- SO IT CAN BE DOMINANT AND TOMIC!
Yunyi: Dominant- Umu: YOU DID IT AGAIN!!
Yunyi: Dominant and tonic!
Shimon: WOooooaaaaaahhh Naoki: Wait what
Yunyi: At the same time
Naoki: What
Fiona: -a minute, wait there's two of them!
Kevin: Woah
Henry: What Fiona: Did you just see that
Kevin: Oh double the beauty standards
Gwen: I'm confused she's lookin at herself
Yunyi: Woah
Gwen: She's lookin at herself
Naoki: Wait are the- they representative of two different styles or something
Lindsey: Oh she's living two different liiiveess because that's the one in New Zealand and the one in f***in Portland, Oregan Davis: But she's saying, I
Kevin: Wumppumpumpumpumpumpum (Yes I counted the pums)
Kevin: It's just me myself and I (Oh my gosh)
Fiona: AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH
Jeremy: Yeah there were two different storylines
Fiona: So she was missing her inner self, she just met her inner self on the beach because
She- she lost herself by going and taking that crappy job, by putting up with stuff she had to change herself as a person to make others happy
And she quit everything, she came to that beach and found her- her real self in the wild with sheep
Emiel: Wow
Shimon: You wanna check the city scape
Naoki: Yeah yeah let's do that
It looked like the Auckland city scape just putting it out there now that I know it's in New Zealand
OH!
Hang on
*Click*
Naoki: That's the sky tower, that's the ANZ building (I had to look the 2nd one up too lol)
That's the ver- That's the toilet seat building! (Vero Centre, it does kinda look like one)
So that means she's probably filming ooonnn the north shore like at Devonport
Umu: I wonder if they did film in two places, No when I looked it up it just said New Zealand (It was a bar in New Zealand called The Portland Public House)
Umu: But it could be like- it could be like Lindsey: Well it said Portland cafe and everyone was super American so (Her older brother was in the cafe apparently)
Umu: What did you think of this song musically, her voice
Gwen: Oh it was pretty, it was just really pretty
Jeremy: Yeah I think her voice is really nice
I- I mean I would want to hear something acoustic
Of her
Jeremy: She sounds really good Gwen: Well this, was comparatively pretty acoustic but Umu: Right
Umu: We're definitely gonna be hearing more of her Um I'm just running a few things by Kevin and to make- to double check like to make sure like hey is this musically interesting enough for us to react to
Davis: Oh you can hear it going where it's gonna go Lindsey: Oh I agree, the whole thing seems very Americanized
Davis: I don't know there's just like a depth that isn't really there it was just a little underseasoned
Umu: Did you at least like her voice
Davis: Yeah she had a good voice Lindsey: Oh yeah no she's great but it's just the song itself, like the overall song was just meh
Lindsey: I didn't- it's not that I didn't like it
I just
Didn't like it
Kevin: I don't think it's that American Umu: Ok
Kevin: It's definitely that pop rock area like maybe a little towards the Coldplay side
Fiona: I like that the chorus is really catchy, *Sings chorus*
Which got kinda old
Henry: That was some pretty aggressive seventh motion happening Fiona: It was- it was so powerful
Emiel: Her voice is just really good too Henry: Her voice was really good
Umu: Can say like why out of first listen someone might think this sounds American-y
Kevin: The chord progressions for sure Yunyi: Yeah dude it was just kind of on one chord the whole time
Yunyi: But then, the major seventh chord Kevin: It kind of- yeah the thing is
Kevin: Dominant is the chord that wants to go to tonic
But in this- Ugh I'm gonna, i'm gonna come on do the thing do the thing
The chorus goes like
The bass notes are
just very very
Simple
And most artists would do
So we hear this chord we think it goes either to here or here because...
That's the dominant chord, it likes to go places
But in this song
She substitutes it for
It's like a six four chord
And it doesn't want to go anywhere, it- just the whole song just feels like you know it feels more mellow, it feels more vanilla and it feels like
Not directionless because of the rhythm still leads it but like it's just
Harmonically not as driven
Dude I didn't even hear chord changes in that song, I- I heard everything- Kevin: Really it's because you see the seventh
yunyi: yeah I heard everything
yeah I heard everything as suspensions or appoggiaturas of the major seventh chord
yunyi: cuz like the....root was like hammered in like the
whole song umu: *sings* root root root
umu: rooooot is this rooot yunyi: yeah that's root
kevin: root is one, but the chorus actually doesn't have the root...you see the chorus just goes umu: still singing root
umu pls
yunyi: in the instrumentals it wasn't there
kevin: because there's no dominant, everything feels like one
yunyi orr- like but the things is it's not like totally placid
because like again you know, kevin: sounds pretty placid to me I think
Yunyi: Well it's obviously not just
Yunyi: one one one one one one one one it's because like she sings on like, she sings on the appoggiatura
Yunyi: and suspensions which makes it feel like there's not a dominant Kevin: So maybe the whole piece is plagal because it just goes foooouuurrrr
Kevin: Like four is literally the only other chord- well there is the minor, nevermind
I think we're making this pop song too- we're going a little too far with this pop song
Umu: If we're comparing this to I Got Love, which one do you like better
Gwen: This one Jeremy: Uhh yeah this one
Naoki: Oh this one is way better, it's way more authentic. Like I'm not biased at all Shimon: Hahahahaha
Shimon: Hahahaha Naoki: It could be filmed in Australia and I'd still say the same thing
Umu: But only music-wise
Naoki: No I actually really liked it, it like
Shimon: Was peaceful
Naoki: Yeah it conveyed this kind of like natural kind of atmosphere
Shimon: I like this one better, it was laid back and you know we needed the variety of intense music and peaceful music, it's a nice balance
Umu: Ok so right after that you guys already like I Got Love better?
Davis: Oh yeah Lindsey: Oh yeah yeah yeah
Fiona: I like this one more
Umu: Ok so both of you I Got Love better?
Kevin: Yes Umu: Even though it was like a style that isn't her usual
Kevin: Oh yeah Yunyi: I Got Love for love, like I got- I love
Kevin: You got love for I Got Love Yunyi: W- I can not talk today
Kevin: I got love for love XD Yunyi: I think I'm having a Hugo and Gwen 3 hours of sleep moment
