there's just something with the way mingyu pronounces "darumdarimda" that is so On Point, no other excess sound can be hears except darumdarimda. no h's and eum's (dah-reum-dah-rim-dah) its literally just DA-RUM-DA-RIM-DA
listen side by side to his and shua's pronunciation. shua goes dah-reum-dah-rim-dah while mingyu goes da-rum-da-rim-da
and how jeonghan sings the "시간과 공간에 구애받지 않는 자세" that doesnt sound weird to end every line with "ey" to rhyme with "say" especially in live stages, you can just hear it so clearly
it's quite different with how hoshi sings this line cz he ends every line with "eh" he goes "shigan-gwa gong-ganeh guaebadji ahn-neun jaseh" compared to jeonghan's "shigan-gwa gong-ganey guaebadji ahn-neun jasey"
the difference in how they sing/say "son-o-gong/손오공" too. chan pronounces it in the korean way, as in son o-gong, while myungho pronounces it more as the chinese way as in sun wu-kong.
i think myungho talked about this? but i can't remember where or when haha (please do tell if you know T^T)
i just love the way they take the same lines and make it their own, despite it being the same lyrics. maybe its the singing members who decided to do those, or maybe woozi or bumzu when directing them. either way, i love noticing this kinds of things in seventeen's songs.
shows how much they care in their crafts even in the littlest details like this <3
"The Romantic era (1820-1900) was the golden age of the virtuoso, where the most difficult music would be performed with nonchalant ease. Instrumentation became even more prominent, with orchestras growing to higher numbers than ever before."
(this is a ranking based on my first listen of the new svt album; ive only heard each song once, but its always fun to post so in a week i can go back and see how my opinions drastically change!!)
1 - april showers: oooooo groovy, this song would totally eat on a hot day at the river with my best friends AND THE BREAKDOWN??? i was skeptical this morning when i saw everyone eating this up but it really did just play and knock i dont understand to spot number 2. i hope they do this live at some point because it would bring me JOY. category of songs that make my heart soar
2 - idubilu - my style fr this is a song that makes u want to MOVE. this song needs a dance like yesterday and i want to project it right into my brain put it in my brain. this is quite possibly one of the best songs. its got the vocals, the drama, the emotion. its everything.
3 - dust: this is so cute omg; like the opening of a shoujo anime that i would be obsessed with. eating up that falsetto for breakfast 🥣; i love a song that i can close my eyes and teleport!!
4 - super: a banger but like every svt song is but this one is like SERVE. GIRLBOSS. they said we need a motivating power anthem and this is it fr. also this shows off a lot of the members vocally in new ways (lookin at u mingyu omg) (AND THE MV I DONT INCLUDE IN THESE RANKINGS BUT THEY ALL HAVE SUCH GOOD LOOKS IM MELTING LONG HAIR MINGHAO AND JEONGHAN WITH HIS HAIR UP!! (except the jorts pants)) anyways can we bottle up the outro and inject it into my veins
5 - fml: ok this is so good its so dreamy and the SPOKEN PARTS?? also rlly connecting bcuz im at a very nostalgic time rn and the song just gives me like REMEMBER vibes
6 - fire: oh my god vernons voice im losing my mind my fucking mind. they need to play kpop in the club so i can shake my ass to this. its literally only ranked so low because the album is good like AOTY‼️
seeing comments about dust (먼지) official audio on you/tube how its such a happy and comforting song as if its not the most gut wrenching, heart breaking, soul yearning song i've ever heard
what part of "the dust of stinging and bitter longing that is stained with your scent" is happy?
what part of "no matter how much i throw away the memories along the flower bed path, they return back like dust and fills up my heart" is comforting?
what part of "i say the blatant lie that deep memories are childish, i knowingly want to be deceived" is happy?
what part of "what are the feelings that have piled up on top of it? the dust of stinging and bitter longing that contains my memories of you" is comforting?
