Big Bang - If You

Hello!

It is that time again.

I was browsing Youtube, like you do, and this particular song came up in my suggestions. Never heard of it before so I went and had a gander, and where we are!




Big Bang - If You

This song starts off with a very sad melody, which stays consisten throughout the song. The first vocals I believe is T.O.P? Who is the bands rapper. Which I find is very intestesting. Throughout the whole song, there is not a single rap break. This, to me, shows the full emotion of the song as a whole and how important the concept is for them all. T.O.P's vocals aren't perfect harmony, but I find that they portray the emotion very well. Personally, I think he should try and sing more. A lovely deep voice.

All of the other vocals are amazingly emotional, making the listener feel the sorrow and pain in the lyrics. The reason I picked up and wrote about T.O.P's vocals is because it was perfect for starting the song. Creating the melancholy and broken feeling to the song right from the get-go.

This particular video has the English translation. It is quite clear that it is about a break-up or losing someone they loved. I think a lot of us have been there, feeling broken, feeling regret. Doing silly things because we want to mask the pain, like alcohol and such. Luckily, I have never felt the urge to overdose or take drugs after a break up, but that doesn't mean others haven't. Losing someone like that can destroy people. Especially when they start to think on how their relationship was, and they knew they were at fault (to a point, it takes two to tango.) We all blame ourselves to some extent. The video shows each of the boys dealing with this emotional pain, its a very sad song.

Once again, Big Bang have showed their talent and it is amazing. It is very difficult to portray these kind of emotions and not over-do it and make it overly dramatic. All of their voices work harmoniously together and it creates something beautiful, something that touches peoples hearts. Well done to them, keep it up.

Hope you enjoy this song as much as I did!

Big Bang - Bang Bang Bang

Hey there!

Another? Yes, two in a row!

I have another recommendation from a friend. I don't remember which one though. They should own up to this one!



Big Bang - Bang Bang Bang
 
 
I remember someone asking me to write about this one, I wasn't sure if he was serious. But here it is! So I was sat here, remembered and decided to put it on. Well. To my surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
 
So much energy in the music and the performance (in the vid) I pretty much started dancing from the get-go. The intro brings in the idea that this is going to make you dance, whether you like it or not. I know that if I heard this in a club or a party I would dance all the way through. Grind against my partying pals- like most ladies do when they are out with a group of friends. haha! I listen to this and imagine people gyrating against each other. An amusing thought, but probably what happens! The music gets you pumped up, ready for action, great gym workout music or partying. Either works!

The video shows a huge amount of energy and great visual effects. I don't really have too much to say on that. lol.

I have no idea what the lyrics are - but who cares right?

I will admit, I have yet to be disappointed by a Big Bang song. New challenge- disappointment me! Mwahaha - or not. Your choice!

Keep the recommendations coming. Hope you enjoy this track as much as I did. I was dancing throughout the whole thing, and now it is stuck in my head. Hurrah!

Big Bang - Loser

Hey there!

I have another recommendation from a friend. Asked personally I might add! hehe.

Okay- ONWARDS!

This song is actually quite interesting to me. From my past experience of listening to Big Bang, they were quite upbeat and love song. This one seems to go in the opposite direction, the imagery on the music video clears that point up nicely.
 
It is a nice sound, in my honest opinion. It is calm, which is what I would expect from a song like this. Quite sorrowful. When you read the lyrics, they are quite...hard hitting. The melody of the song fits the lyrics perfectly as I feel when you are in that state of mind- everything seems slower. A lot of bands put the feeling "loser" or melancholy to hard, fast, thrashing around music as if its anger. It is not, and this gives off the feeling that they are slowly declining into depression - leading to suicide, or wanting to be dead.
 
As much as this song is depression, it is absolutely beautiful - for that reason. It is quite refreshing to hear a band sing a song about these darker feelings instead of happy love is everywhere. There is a huge difference between a song like this and a song about a breakup. Or maybe this is just a song about love/breakup and is just very dramatic. haha!
 
I am so glad I was given this song. It is something I can sit and listen to, thoroughly enjoy. It is a nice, easy listening song. Hope you enjoy it!
