So I realized that the challenge is actually a 30 day challenge so there's 30 entries. But March has 31 days. So I decided why not have one bonus entry on whatever I want to write? And so this baby happened.
What I wanna do is I'm gonna listen to MONSTA X's new album and while listening I will write down whatever I think of the song currently playing. It will probably be pretty jumbled up and cut mid-sentence because I won't be able to write everything that comes to my mind at the time. I won't edit whatever I wrote so that it really shows what I really wrote at the time.
Ready... GO!
Okay first song is Ready or Not. I think it's a nice opening track. I remember seeing it performed live and the people in the comment keep saying it brings them back to Trespass era. At first I really didn't feel that way and was confused. But then I saw someone wrote it has No Exit vibes and then yup I see it now. Its a pretty nice song. I absolutely love Kihyun's hair during the performance. That definitely brought me back to Trespass era. The line distribution for the song is pretty fair I think. Except for the live perfs where they only perform half so IM has no lines sadly. I rushed thinking the song was about to end only for the bridge to come in lol. Yeah so now it is about to end. Love Kihyun's adlibs.
Now we have the title track Beautiful! The first time I saw the MV I was shocked to hear the beats and then suddenly Jooheon enters with his angry rapping and I was shook. Because I kept on hearing the teaser and previews so I was not expecting the first part. OM I love Hyungwon and his lines and him being in the center gosh. Yeah sick dance break. I also like how they have All In in the lyrics not just in this song but another song too. I love Wonho's lines too. And Kihyun's. OMG Minhyuk's so beautiful is the best. Okay I like all the parts. Okay and now the jacket is about to come off. KYAA I screamed loudly when I saw this the first time. Like, I had to pause the video. It was amazing. Okay I love your last part Hyungwon.
Areumdawo. I like how the next song starts with that line. This is Incomparable and in the preview I was so-so with it. Then I heard the full song and it is amazing. Okay now the buildup is coming. I think it's a bit out of place but it's not too bad. I love the chorus. And the fact that Minhyuk is singing it. Amazing. Also there's a lot of adlib-ish things during the chorus which really sounds interesting. I really like this song. Jooheon' scream at the back sounds funny if you pay attention to it haha. But I wonder why they're singing break up though. OMG Hyungwon's got lines! Just kidding, OMG Jooheon's semi rap semi singing part sounds beautiful. And of course the climax too. Man this song is really good.
What's next? Ahh I Need You. This song is a bit on the bubbly(?) song? Ooh I like Kihyun's I Need You at the beginning where he ends it a bit in a staccato style? Wow there goes all my music knowledge. Yay Hyungwon again. The chorus is pretty catchy. I like the uh-huh at the back too. OMG Jooheon's beautiful girl sounds so amazing in a slightly eccentric way. Haa there's another All In lyrics~ Nan niga piryohae~ This is quite a bop. The line distribution not only for this song but the album overall I think is pretty fair. Maybe Hyungwon has one song where he does not have lines. But others is okay
OMG OI IS MY JAM!! It was amazing like the first listen through the album and the songs I immediately downloaded was Beautifu obviously and OI! I dunno, the song is so lit. No not lit but you get super turnt up! Wow I love Jooheon's rap. Amen is also included in this song. The chorus sounds so strong and I saw the lyrics and it was like pretty gangster-like and it's just amazing. Ooh my fav part is Wonho's part in saying go away~ Jooheon sang something that sounded like 'feels so gay'. Chorus is sick. Oioioioi part too. And Wonho's part afterwards is also amazing. OMG the climax I love Kihyun's scream. Get turnt up man OI!
What's this? Aahh Miss You. Ooo I just realized Minhyuk starts the song. Mmm there's so many improvements I feel so proud. This song is composed by Jooheon if I remember correctly. No wonder the chorus goes 'where u at~'. Kihyun's lisp in miss you is so cute. I don't have a lot to write suddenly haha. The song I'm so-so with it. It's good but I just don't get too hooked with it. Ooh Jooheon's rap breakdown is great. Where u at~ jigeum. Why do they all sing Mish youh? Well it's okay, still cute.
Next is.... CALM DOWN! I love the theme where Calm Down is the song that turns you up like how Be Quiet was the song that gets you screaming too. Wow IM's rap sounds nice. OMG love Wonho's part after the rap. Chorus for me at first sounds like Boy's Republic Get Down. I also just realized how long Jooheon rap is in this song. Seriously it's pretty long. And then my fav part. Minhyuk can sing pretty well. The song is pretty great. But yeah the chorus kinda sounds disjointed. The stop calm down part is pretty nice haha. Ooh I dunno if this next part is just Jooheon or he sang it with Hyungwon. That would be pretty nice. This is the song where Hyungwon doesn't get any line btw. STOP CALM DOWN LET'S STOP CALM DOWN.
And now we have, ooh All I Do. Snazzy intro. This song is nice too. Nunbit~ Hmm somehow I like Wonho's parts a lot. Nan noman saenggake~ oh this is all I dooo~oo~oo~ Yay Hyungwon! I like all the songs in the album really. Now that I think about it this song has the vibe of KNK's upbeat song I don't remember the name. Rap breakdown is pretty nice here too haha maybe it's because I'm so used to it. Oh and the rap has a slight part where it sounds like S COUPS rap in Boom Boom. All I doo~oo~~
Oh wow here we go. This is 5:14 Last Page. The song that will make you cry. The lyrics are about their journey and the time 5:14 is their debut date. When you think about it and read the lyrics and listen to the song you can probably cry. Once again my fav part is Wonho's. I said it somewhere in a comment but I'll say it gain everytime Wonho's part comes in this song I tear up a little. And I love the 5:14 usage throughout the song. Aahh this song is so nice. There are a lot of lyrics where it's really touching. IM sounds like he's holding back tears. It's beautiful. This song is beautiful. I love it. Amazing. Amado urin~ hamke haltenikka~ We gotta slow it down~
And last but definitely not least, my most awaited song, I'll Be There or Neon Oddae? They performed it once at an event and it was amazing I kept waiting for it to be released and it was also Wonho's first song to be performed so I really enjoyed it and waited for it. It's a song for Monbebes and the lyrics are pretty sweet especially a line which actually started Wonho cry in the MonSurprise Vapp. Aahh I love this song. Oddae~ nan joeundae~ Also love the rap parts. It's so nice and like relaxed manner? Hmm nice. Neon oddae? No thanks~ No ways~ Love the fact that Shownu sings while Kihyun does the adlib and also Minhyuk singing the chorus. Man I love this song. Perfect song to end the album.
And it ends. Fuhh this is pretty tiring. I just edited typing errors and things that result from other things. The songs where I wrote little means that I didn't know what to write haha.
Overall I think all the songs in the album are great. I just feel like some of the songs have parts which kinda not flow and transition was not so smooth. Well, this is my opinion. I still enjoy all the songs. I dunno what to say about the arrangement of the album because I dunno how to judge that. For me, I love it. Well duh, because I love MONSTA X. No but really, because there are quite a few types of songs in the album so you would be able to find at least one that you like.
I just realized the album is 30+ mins long so that means I wrote non-stop for 30+ mins. Ah I'm tired. I'm gonna go sleep now (even though I have 3 entries piled up huehue)
