Catch me Catch me if you wanna~~!
I am currently listening to Catch Me Album by my beloved TVXQ (even if this name currently belongs to only 2 people). It's definitely an album which holds up the dignity of TVXQ as a group and as kings of KPop :D. And I am proud to be a Cassiopeia since 2005.
So let's do a little review of each track :D.
Catch Me - The song opens with synthesized piano... which I LOVE!!!!<3 It's a dance track of course :D A lot of dubsteps sounds in it. The lines that I love is when Yun Ho says: This fool can’t even tell me not to go hahahaha. The dance choreography to this song is really awesome, I myself haven't seen the MV (what a bad cassie). But the preview of this song on ITunes prompted me to buy this album straight away.
Insaeng eun Bichnanda (Viva)- This track in my opinion is the reggae track of this whole album :D. My second favourite after Catch Me. Even if the song has that really reggae vibe, behind all the melody there's a really sad reality of the lyrics reflecting TVXQ's effort to become the kings of KPop of the new generation after H.O.T and Shin Hwa. This song talks about their growth through scandals and rumours throughout their early days.
Destiny - An R&B track :DDDD. I like the instrumental arrangement :D. Reminded me of Before U Go, however with a totally different touch. First stanza described a girl to which the gentleman fell for before their official meeting.
Binu Cheorom (Like Soap) - Opens up to drum, bass and acoustic guitar. It gives you a light feeling, but then this song talks about a guy who compared himself to a block of soap. Talks about his heart hurting because the girl doen't see his love. I LIKE IT :DDD.
I Don't Know - I think we all know of this track's name :333. I literally sing the Japanese version as soon as I heard this version xD hehehehehe. The same music arrangements but different language for the lyrics xD. I find this song really fits with the whole melody, the lyrics doesn't sound awkward at all.
Kkum (Dream) - This song starts off really bubbly despite the sad lyrics. It talks about a guy who could only admire the love of his life from a far. And he could only dream about her in his sleep, because he's afraid of the change of personality in reality. As the song suggest by the title, the guy lives in a dream.
How Are You - A story about memories, of the great times the two people shared during their time together. I think this song is very suitable for an OST XDDD. A very sweet song and I love the strings playing in it too :D.
Getaway - A rock piece, this is more suited for Chang Min solo xDD. I don't really like it, but I hope to love it as time goes by :D.
I Swear - A sweet ballad, the lyrics are written by Chang Min :D. I think with this song we can see that Chang Min is extending himself into lyrics compositions, which I think is really great :D. A song of appreciative love from the boys to their world wide throngs of fans especially Cassiopeia and BigEast. This song is a veryyyy meaning full song :D.
Gorgeous - This song in my opinion is more suited for Jun Su xD since it does have the same vibe as tarantallegra. It still have the rock sound to it, but it's mostly electronic. But I still kinda like it :D.
Good Night - A song similar to Destiny, a slow R&B song :D. Will definitely put most listeners to sleep if put on low volume.
Overall a very satisfying album, it shows the growth that TVXQ as a duo has gone through since the 2009 break up. Equal amounts of ballads/ slow rhythm songs as well as upbeat more SMP-ish songs. I hope they continue to grow and also I hope that all the fans will have a listen to this LONGGG awaited album :D.
