In honour of my upcoming concert, I am requesting NCT's newest album!

Do your thing word nerd 🙂‍↕️

Only a week and a half to go 😭 I'm not ready!

yeah yeah we get it you get to see ilichil while i have to take a math midterm the morning after my show would've been 😭

a ranking of walk on the beat by nct 127

11. suddenly: just straight up mid. it was the only song during my listening experience in which i zoned out. i like how the chorus is layered and taeyong's tone quality is always really nice to listen to because he always makes every song his bitch. on the album as a whole i noticed a lost of jazz inspired elements which i really enjoyed and that was present in this song as well. i just liked the rest of the album more.

10. gas: if you're not familiar with the concept of semantic satiation, it's when you say or hear a word so many times that the neural connection between the world and its perceived meaning breaks down and it no longer feels like a word anymore. that happened to me during the chorus of this song. however, haechan was in fact spitting like he said. i did note that the instrumental sounded vaguely like a chainsaw combined with a techno-toned zipper. do what you will with that. thought it was funny that mark is yet again randomly referencing past titles, it was sticker this time.

9. intro: wall to wall: it's a bit long for an album intro but i really didn't hate it. it struck a nice balance between the more hype tracks and the ones that are meant to calm your brain down. the instrumental pulsating and the electronic vocalizing were very neo, very nice. you don't always hear from every member on an album intro, yet with this one you do and i think that's pretty cool.

8. orange seoul: again with the jazz fusion, it tickled my brain. i noted that it made me feel like i was on a yacht, very fancy very rich. i'm not sure what it is about the chorus but i felt like it was missing something, i probably thought the tempo didn't suit the rest of the song. i think it's cool that they pushed that metaphor of them letting the city burn with the love they feel for it.

7. rain drop: didn't have a whole lot to say about this one other than that the sound really does fit the title. i feel like i'm on a city street while it's raining yet i also feel like i'm being chased. the whistles in the background remind me of west side story, so perhaps that's why. we also get a certified haechan bridge moment which is always a positive element.

6. no clue: i love taeyong immediately popping off, but i will give a controversial take and say that mark's occasional style of raspy, mumbly rapping isn't always my favorite, and it didn't really work for me here. jungwoo and yuta's "my city my ocean" had me ascending because everything the two of them do is awesome. i didn't love the first part of the chorus, but once they actually started singing it was much better. they said "we'll not stop it" instead of "we will not stop it" or "we're not stopping" which did not make my brain feel good at ALL. jaehyun and johnny also slayed though and the bridge was an epic nct bridge for sure.

5. walk: probably my favorite 127 title track. i 100% went into this thinking that this would be the best song on the album. it's not, and that's kind of crazy. it's so sassy and johnny's intro is so fun and and and- i love that you can't sit still while listening to it and i LOVE the high notes in the bridge and final chorus.

4. pricey: i wish i could eat this song, it would probably taste very good. very smooth but also so very groovy. the bass line is doing exactly what it's meant to do. haechan had another fantastic bridge feature and the instrumental outro ending with the little piano plink plonks fit SO WELL. shoutout to whoever produced this song.

3. can't help myself: a big reason why this song is ranked so high is because mark and taeyong start it off by singing. i love when rappers sing, it's so pure to me. i was not expecting the chorus to be the way it was but i'm here for it either way. very straight boy coded, but i suppose i can't really complain about that.. the vocal layering and ad libs at the final chorus should have been overstimulating but they really weren't. the instrumental swelling and then cutting out almost entirely to leave doyoung with the piano at the end was pretty epic. my only real complaint is about johnny's stupid throwaway piece of dialogue at the end because let the man sing??? PLEASE???

2. meaning of love: jaehyun's intro reminded me both of exo's the first snow as well as ateez's thank u. i loved that. jungwoo and haechan harmonizing together with haechan being the one on melody was an incredible choice. i literally wrote in my notes, "i love when johnny actually gets to sing" because he sounds so good when there are lines given to him. they made good use of claps emphasizing the beat during the last chorus, you can't really go wrong with that.

1. time capsule: the mmmms at the beginning were very calming. i could definitely sleep to this song. i always feel like the token slow jam on a 127 album hits every time. a very smooth experience, jungwoo got featured on the bridge which is always good because that's my goat right there. i now remember why he was my first bias. also loved the synth pulses layered into the instrumental.

definitely did not expect all of the slow songs to be at the top of the list but here you go, goose goose. hope you enjoyed this.

You know what's the funniest thing in the k-pop industry? That when a female idol has a scandal it's always about them reading a feminist book or DATING and when a male idol has a scandal it's about SA and being a ped0. Guess who gets more shit
