The 2NE1 Comeback Album

Post by Shoujo Q »

I decided to make this its own thread since it'll probably get cluttered to bits in the Kpop thread.





2NE1 will be releasing their first full length album on September 9th. They'll be promoting the first three tracks with MVs at once.



Tracklist is as follows.



1. Can't Nobody 1:30 Preview

2. Go Away

3. Bakssu Cheo (박수 쳐; Clap Your Hands) 1:28 Preview

4. Nan Bappa (난 바빠; I'm Busy)

5. Apa (SLOW) (아파; It Hurts) 1:33 Preview

6. Sarangeun Ayaya (사랑은 아야야; Love Is Ayaya)

7. YOU AND I (Bom solo) MV

8. PLEASE DON'T GO (CL & Minzy) Single Version / Live Version

9. KISS (Sandara solo) MV

10. Nal Ddara Haebwayo (날 따라 해봐요; Try to Follow Me) MV

11. I DON'T CARE (Reggae mix)

12. Can't Nobody (Eng. Ver)







I'm happy to see they have the solo works on the album. I really loved Bom's solo song, though I think it had more to do with the video. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':cryalot:' /> Surprised to see an English version of a song on there, but that'll make me happy. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':D' />



I ordered the album, but I wont be getting it till the Muten Musume single comes out. I probably shouldn't have done that, but what's a month's wait? <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... pyeyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />

2NE1 TWA TWA TO A-NEE-WAN



Anyway. Sadly, none of the new clips really strike me as anything special yet. I don't usually warm up to 2NE1 songs immediately anyway, so I'm not especially worried about that.



Neither CL and Minzy's nor Sandara's single songs ever really stuck with me, either, but I am massively in love with You and I. On second listen, though, all those songs are pretty enjoyable.



I really can't comment with anything except general excitement. 2NE1 have definitely locked down a unique style and the girls are always lovable and awesome. Something about them just makes me smile, and I'm glad they seem to be keeping on track instead of implementing some sort of style change to blend in with all the other girl groups out there currently.

I've only had a chance to listen to the album once, but my initial impressions are good. Out of the three tracks they're promoting, I like Clap Your Hands the most, followed by Go Away, and then Can't Nobody. Both of the slower new songs, It Hurts and Love is Ouch, are good, too.



I remember that it actually took a few listens before the non-single tracks on their first mini album grew on me. In comparison, I liked a lot more songs from this album on first listen. I'm looking forward to the music videos and performances!

I downloaded it yesterday.

It's not as good as their other album I think. I'll listen more later, but I'm not really into it so far.

Nice concept for the Clap your hands video, I wonder if they're going to work the bench into their live performances?

The MV for "Can't Nobody" is out now.

I'm waiting to do a proper write-up on the videos and CD, but I just want to say they really dropped the ball on the cool clothes at the end there. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

It's so wrong that I want to be a 16 year old girl when I grow up.

I finally figured out who each girl is. I feel proud of myself. It also helps that they all have different colored hair so it's easier to tell who is who. Next time they release something I'll probably be back at square one again. D:



PS. This explains 2NE1's fashion choices.

[center]TO ANYONE ALBUM REVIEW



Image

[tinytext]I cannot say I feel good about being the creator of this image.[/tinytext]

[/center]

1. Can’t Nobody (Korean) I love this song. This is likely influenced by how much I enjoyed the video, but it has some parts I really enjoy, particularly toward the end. Just a really good electro-y track with a good beat. 5/5

2. Go Away This song grew on me a lot from first listen. I really felt that it was overwhelmingly “eh” at first. The more I listen to it, the more I think I could belt this out while driving. As an aside, what is with the cursing on this record? 4/5

3. Bakssu Cheo (Clap Your Hands) I’m not really digging it. The “bakssu cheoooOooo” bits are nice enough, but overall it just feels jerky and odd to me. Not nearly as good as the other singles. 2/5

4. Nan Bappa (I'm Busy) Nan bappa, very bappa, nan bappa, DAYUM bappa, nan bappa, very bappa, nan bappa, DAYUM bappa, nan bappa, very bappa, nan bappa, DAYUM bappa, nan bappa, very bappa, nan bappa, DAYUM bappa. Hey, guess what guys? This song is really busy. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... imshot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' /> 3/5

5. Apa (It Hurts) I, eh. It’s nice enough, but I need to warm up to it, I think. I have a feeling it will grow on me. 3/5

6. Sarangeun Ayaya (Love Is Ayaya) Awww, this song is pleasant on my earsies. I approve, but am not blown away yet. Another grower, I think. 3.5/5

7. YOU AND I (Bom solo) I love this song, I have always loved this song, and this song is half of why I warmed up to Bom and Bom’s voice. The other half being this video. The… forced feel of her singing always bothers me a bit, but the girl is awesome. 5/5

8. PLEASE DON'T GO (CL & Minzy) I honestly didn’t care for this song at all initially, but it’s really turned into an ear worm. I know it’s bad in my heart of hearts, yet I keep listening. I feel dirty. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... ryalot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':shlick:' /> 4/5

9. KISS (Sandara solo) I keep saying this… but I judged this song too harshly. I’m sorry, KISS. You're actually pretty neat. We cool? 4/5

10. Nal Ddara Haebwayo (Try to Follow Me) Same as track 8. YOU SHOULD BE SUCH A CRAPPY SONG. WHY DO I LOVE YOU? (My shame goes bang-a bang-a bang, bang-a bang-a bang) 4/5

11. I DON'T CARE (Reggae mix) A cute, albeit slightly annoying remix of a good song. 2.5/5

12. Can't Nobody (English) brb peein’ my pants. 5/5 for hilarity



Overall score: 3.75/5 8o



I really enjoy this album, and half or so of the tracks will be going into my playlist rotation.

I'm not too surprised given that it sounded like she's been on a ridiculous diet for the past few months. Hope she gets better soon.

They've been bouncing around from the top to the bottom. Every time someone says they are #1 I check and they are back down into the 20s D:

People are arguing over the legitimacy of that a bit, and apparently they were just #1 for that day or something. That said, who really cares? The fact that they're charting this way in any capacity is amazing.



I am so excited. YOU GO, 2NE1!

BEST VIDEO. BEST BAND. BEST BEST BEST



THERE'S CAKE EVEN.



I am literally... I can't even... this is just all so perfect. I want to weep. 2NE1 and I, together forever AND I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO THANK THE WORLD ENOUGH.



Seriously it's like they made this as a personal present. They looked me in the eye and said, Phlegm, happy bakery opening gift. Here is a video of your favorite girls in amazing clothes in a Tim Burton set with a motherfucking cake singing a song that makes you weep. WE LOVE YOU.



I can overlook the guy. I will overlook the guy. I will stan this video into eternity, forever.

Being as two different 2NE1 songs have been top music video on youtube and JYP has already sent over an artist for the HOB concert series stuff, I wonder if 2NE1 would ever do one. I would certainly be a lot more excited for them than the Wonder Girls lol. Of course, I'm still waiting on 2pm to have their own as well, cause that would rock too.

Big meh at both of those videos. The song It Hurts is kinda OK, but the video is lame. And my god, reading the Youtube comments on this shit is like watching 5 year olds fight with each other. No OUR VIDEOS HAVE MORE PEOPLE WATCHING THEM. No OURS DO.

My screen is at such a high resolution that I usually see the first 3-5 comments at the bottom of my screen while I'm watching the video, so I can't help but look down, LOL. And yeah, after reading those 3-5 I'll often just quickly scroll down to see if most of the other comments are basically the same, and the usually are, so then I close Firefox.
