♪ "Still trapped in this endless dream // I don't know where I'm going tonight" ♪

The wait is over! I have been so confused about this whole concept project since the very first announcement came out (i.e. flying poster landed on the sidewalk) about this completely random Jeonghan & Wonwoo duet, but it's finally making more sense with the full MV out. This whole time, all the company SNS updates kept spamming "THIS MAN", but then the title track is actually called "Last Night" (works out for me in the end).

"Who wouldn't want to go with him?" — What a great way to end the prologue before the song starts!

You can hear the guitar in the intro now! Funny how the editors timed Jeonghan's "This silent moonlit night" with him opening his eyes (the literal translation is more like "moon-rising night").

"Nox" is Latin for "night", which fits the entire concept.

It looks like Jeonghan is eating clam chowder based on the color & how he added black pepper to his bowl (just random thoughts).

"It's a PAIN that digs deep" — "PAIN" is in English. Reminds of the awful font where "MAN" was stylized to also look like "PAIN".

"The more it hurts me, the happier I'll be." — OK Wonwoo XD

The transition from each verse/prechorus to the chorus is surprisingly fast (feels like less than a second in between).

Not a whole lot of rapping for Wonwoo, but his 2nd verse is something else... The cartoon lemon reminds me of his juice box.

BLACK & WHITE ANIMATED JxW FOR LIFE! (even if the cameo was short) I can't stop replaying the scene where Jeonghan falls to his knees dramatically at daybreak (i.e. TIME TO WAKE UP) while Wonwoo kneels down slowly & (mercifully) takes JH out of this (miserable) dreamland.

I assume white-shirt Jeonghan is in reality whereas black-suit Jeonghan is in his dreamland. (Wonwoo wears black during the entire MV.) Whoever styled his hair at the very end when he woke up (with the glass of lemonade) made him look like Joshua. @_@

There is LITERALLY NO VISIBLE CHOREO in this MV (& barely any lipsyncing to the lyrics), so you have no idea what to expect for any upcoming performances (which might only be 1 or 2 at most based on current chatter).

Technically, there isn't a 3rd/final chorus, but after the UNIQUE BRIDGE (thank goodness for that) is a repeat of the post-chorus. Both are enough for my expectations!

You get Wonwoo as the MV thumbnail because Jeonghan is already on the teaser thumbnail :D It took me a while to cleanly make this GIF of the animation sequence.

As for the B-side solos, I have very different thoughts about each, but I agree that they both could be OSTs (for completely different drama genres, though):

"Leftover (Wastebasket)": I could play Wonwoo's solo on repeat (genuinely surprised by the ballad theme). The chorus reminded me of "Endless Love" by Jackie Chan & Kim Hee Seon (from their movie "The Myth"). This song could be an OST for a modern or historical drama (just have to slightly modify the lyrics).

"Beautiful Monster": I don't think I can play Jeonghan's solo ever again because it's too bubbly for me (no 3rd chorus = more than a minute shorter than Wonwoo's solo). This sounds like an OST for... a Taiwanese idol drama??? (I'm being as nice as possible here)

Full CD is here on YouTube Music! (I wish there was another duet for a total of 4 tracks to make a maxi single ._.)

The post

[sm0keyb0nes]

J'ai juste besoin de lui ; rien ne sait compter plus que lui. J'ai besoin de le voir sur la table, à se faire comprendre pour avoir des croquettes ; et puis miauler, parce qu'il sait bien faire maintenant, et miauler parce que ça va pas assez vite ! Je veux le retrouver tout mouillé et que monsieur attend qu'on l'essuie parce que quand même, il va pas se sécher tout seul ! Je veux le sentir frétiller sous la serviette et ronronner même un peu ; et puis le voir descendre de la table, avec sa démarche de danseuse et réclamer à sortir encore, alors qu'il pleut et que je viens de l'essuyer ; de quoi je me plains, c'est un honneur de recommencer ça toutes les dix minutes !

J'ai besoin de le prendre dans mes bras, de l'embrasser partout sur la tête et le sentir serein, bien posé, sentir son tout petit poids relâché, là, dans le creux de mes bras. Même qu'on ronronne un peu mais pas tant, mais je sais que chez lui c'est énorme, qu'il a appris y'a même pas si longtemps ! Parce qu'il s'arrête jamais d'apprendre à être heureux, de comment c'est d'être un petit chat ; un jour, il ira vraiment pour préférer un carton à n'importe quoi d'autre dans une pièce... En attendant il est décidé qu'il dormirait à tel endroit et puis c'est tout ! J'aurais beau le ramener dans le lit, non non, il part directement pour se mettre dans le coin le plus inconfortable de la baraque ! Vraiment sa spécialité ça, alors qu'il a cent autres endroits où se mettre, tous mille fois plus confortables que ça !

Ouais, il a encore beaucoup à apprendre ; il m'impressionne toujours autant, parce que maintenant il fait des progrès de géant ! Alors qu'il est effrayé par les gens, il parvient à leur donner sa confiance maintenant, parce qu'il me croit, parce qu'il me voit aimer et que si j'aime la personne, il peut y aller aussi ! Il a ce grand coeur qui demande que ça dans le fond, comme avec Osiris ; le supporté pas au début et finalement c'est devenu son meilleur pote, à miauler derrière lui pour être sûr qu'il rentre quand on vient ouvrir la porte, qu'on y voit que du feu à se dire que c'était Marvel et en fait non !

Je veux qu'il revienne me faire râler ; en montant sur mes épaules ou sur mes cuisses quand je suis sur le pc ; à dormir sur mes côtes la nuit, à m'obliger de me réveiller un peu pour bouger sans l'écraser ; à le tenir d'une main tout en me tournant, en râlant dans mon sommeil avant de me rendormir, tandis qu'il se réinstalle en s'en fichant bien que je râle !

J'ai oublié ce que c'est, de vivre sans lui.

Parce qu'il m'a fait vivre pour lui.

Parce qu'il a vécu pour moi.

J'ai peur que cette journée se termine. J'ai peur de me réveiller demain. J'ai peur de me dire que ça fera déjà une journée sans lui. J'ai peur. J'en veux pas, de tout ça.

Je voudrais juste retrouver sa chaleur tout contre moi.

Comment on se remet de la perte de son ange gardien ?

♪ "You may fake it but I make it // Buy a ticket // Cause you know Imma run my show" ♪

Most of you are NOT going to understand Yumi Chung's "Crack!" (especially since there are no English subs), but I'm still going to post this because I've discovered several new soloists from STARS Academy (which was a survival competition show from TVB Music). Yumi Chung is my favorite contestant by far! (I admit that biased toward her because she looks like a mini Linda Chung.) My favorite song from her is "Breakin' My Heart" (sorry no subs), & I was surprised to hear that she was going to release "Crack!" because it's a total 180 from her previous singles.

I could translate the lyrics into English if I had time. The problem is that something as little as 4 characters could easily be a compound sentence in English. @_@ Basically, this song is about how Yumi (or any typical girl in general) has decided to undergo metamorphosis & "crack" (break) open from the chrysalis to become something completely different. I guess I'll select a few lines to translate:

"你注重老牌 正確流派 // 我注重個人 怕腳踭跳壞" = You focus on established brands & being right, but I focus on the individual & not breaking my ankles when dancing (i.e. making critical mistakes by following the norm that may not work for me).

"積分表畫交叉都好 [...] 積分表自己加剔號" = You can put cross marks on all my papers however you like (i.e. this is unacceptable or wrong), but I'll add my own check marks (i.e. I determine what's correct for me).

One of the promo hashtags translated to, "the lyrics are kind of bi+chy" XD. I obviously understand Cantonese, but everything is appropriate. Maybe the way how Yumi initiatively approaches the male lead was the flirty part XD.
