Is it weird that I've been looking forward to SS501's Comeback more than my own birthday?  XD;

They certainly didn't disappoint with their new mini-album, REBIRTH.  All five songs are really good, and my new favorite song is their title track, "Love Like This."  It's so lovely and catchy, and not in an annoyingly hypnotic hook song way, but an ( Read more... )
