The ninth part of my SVT discography review!
Ranking system:
š - 10.0 BNM one of their most iconic slays
š - fantastic song that made me feel something
š - eating, a few flaws that are either easy to overlook or a bit charming
š - good background music but i wouldn't seek it out
š - it does nothing for me but isn't outright offensive
š - does nothing for me and is offensive
š - so bad that it almost wraps back around to good just bc i was laffing so much
(note: tracklists are not in album order. they are very loosely ranked)
š Holiday
The pan flutes lmfaoooo like this is really their vacation album. Aw jeonghan served a honey vocal slsksdhifkjgfā¦itās kinda like, slideshow music if Iām being real. And theyāre dangerously close to millennial whoop territory, but then Dino dips into his rizzler bag and saves the track. Idk the prechorus is kinda nice, too. But the chorus is underwhelming and then itās followed up by thatā¦chantingā¦tropicalā¦sectionā¦idk, maybe the weather isnāt good enough for this one yet. Iād have to be at the beach tbhā¦
š Come to Me
Itās kinda funny how this whole album seems summer-themed, lol. The instrumentals are all tropical in that late 2010s kpop way, and theyāre playing around with all sorts of āexoticā FL studio presets. Like if this was just the instrumental, itād be really good music for like, the amphibian and reptile exhibit at a zooā¦Iād be looking at all the snakes and frogs like yoooā¦this is kinda magicalā¦I think I like it more than holiday cuz they donāt bullshit me with a bunch of chanting. Itās pretty pleasant.
š Whatās Good
This wonāt be my favorite song no matter how many times you try to gaslight me into believing it is, Vernā¦sorryā¦Mingyu lisping that we should bounce is kinda hilarious. It also took me out that Mingyu announced heās 22 years old (21 in international age). Like what the fuck, you were still that young? Jesus christā¦I also think Vernās pen game is getting better, like āJust spit out any konglish, you know what Iām sayingā thatās kinda hilarious of him dfgjfdkgj. Itās a pretty fun song.
š Our Dawn Is Hotter Than Day
Spent twenty fooour hours, I need moooore hours with youā¦I mean, if you want Girls Like You without Adam Levine and with Seventeen then this is for you. Honestly, I appreciate that it existsā¦I wonder if Woozi does this on purpose or if heās just exposed to the radio too much and accidentally writes better versions of the songs he hears lmfao. I donāt mind this at all, itās pleasant and pretty nice end-of-the-party music. I donāt have parties anymore, though, so it makes me a little sad. Iām really lonelyā¦
š MOONWALKER
I mean this oneās just fun. I think that for the āfun summer trackā PFU are the ones best suited to that concept, and yet they went a little freaky with it and I appreciate that! Itās almostā¦dancehall-esque at some parts, which is kinda fun. I like the production on this song a lot, and the hook is really catchy, I kinda regret listening to this on a night where I gotta go to bed early cuzā¦likeā¦itās gonna be echoing in my mindā¦
š Oh My!
Sheās a little nauseating, if Iām being realā¦but itās in a fun way. The piano is so cheerful, and the sway of it sorta makes me dizzy. I probably shouldnāt listen to this song while walking around or Iāll bump into people and/or fall over. As a jjf, Iām obligated to say that he sounds great here. Pretty much everyone does, if Iām being honest. Like they were energized! The bridge always catches me off guard, still not totally sure if I fuck with it, especially since it slams back into the chorus on the off-beat. Makes me queasyā¦I like this one, though. Itās giving, likeā¦candy store or something.
