Big Bang and Epik High are great at writing sad, heartbreaking lyrics, but giving it a bumpin, dance beat. I remember Tablo said that making people dance while they're sad is the hardest thing to do which is why it's so important to make music like that. so even when ppl feel like crap, you can make them dance
I love this song so much already because it reminds me of the kind of music that was popular in Europe when I was growing up. Europop mets kpop, I can't even describe this feeling.
When i first watched the mv i thought the lyrics were going to be something along the lines of partying and getting drunk for fun but when i checked out the trans my heart broke :( it depressed me so much lol i think my whole day might be ruined now 😩 still a jam though!! actually calling it crooked 2.0 might not be a bad idea the songs are actually (lyrically) very similar!!
WanderLust me too! I thought it was about you being sober but your love makes you fell drunk. But then I read the translation and I can't even. And the bridge that Riri and Ji are singing is actually what Ji sang as an intro to crooked at Mama 2013.
YES i still cant believe we heard a part of the song and we didnt even know it. I find it really strange though that his mama performance including that preview of the song was for a song that was released almost 3 years later 😂😂😓😓😓
"did he kiss the face or the boobs" "looking like they killed a bunch of smurfs to get those suits made" Only you would actually say this +JRE haha By the way, the "If You" audio is out and it seems like it's all in english, would would you do a listen to it and say what you think the MV will be like? Since YG says it's gonna be their saddest song yet so I imagine some acting in the MV...
The english one is a different , older song by bibang (forget what it's called, something love i think). Someone else put the actual audio, so look for that , it has "if you" in english several times in the chorus :)
Carlu Gonzalez just a suggestion but if yg wanted people to focus on the lyrics and music, they could have uploaded a lyric video like baek ahyeon and amber. just saying, but it doesn't really matter.
the lyrics are actually quite melancholic which creates nice contrast ENGLISH TRANSLATION: ( SOBER ) Stop acting like you're all that You're actually the most pathetic Yeah, try to provoke me even more So I can have some fun for a moment If you only chase after money, power and fame Your crotch is gonna rip and you're gonna fall They say love is good, friendship is good But be warned, the back of your head might be in pain Hey doctor doctor, please save me Because I'm about to go insane Stop trying to awkwardly change the subject Hear me say It's hard for me to be sober I can't do anything I hate being sober I can't fall asleep without you Time is so damn slow, I'm just growing old, I live like I'm dead I have so many damn things to do but I have nothing that I want to do The world is cold to me People's eyes are prickling on me I seem like an adult but I'm really a child that's really tall My young dreams are just faded fantasies My mood is like a vast wilderness People don't understand me So I just wanna lose it without even knowing Get drunk, get drunk, go to heaven After I wake, I'm in hell, I don't last long I'm like Popeye without spinach The laughter bomb tempts me Hey TAXI TAXI, take me away Because this place is too hard to be in So I can at least breathe for a few days It's hard for me to be sober I can't do anything I hate being sober I can't fall asleep without you Time is so damn slow, I'm just growing old, I live like I'm dead I have so many damn things to do but I have nothing that I want to do Without you, everything is hard Without you, this dark night, this cold world It's too hard for me Without you, I'm still left alone here I'm waiting for you, only believing in you But I'm a fool, no no no It's hard for me to be sober I can't do anything I hate being sober I can't fall asleep without you
I wonder what G-Dragon had to do to get the girl? Maybe it happened like this: G-Dragon: Okay I get the girl. Derector: No..... TOP will get the girl. G-Dragon: No I get the girl, TOP can have a goat!. 😂😂
"Do you...Do you....Taeyang? You trapped? Want me to save you??" - 90% of Tae's fangirl's reactions X'D I laughed pretty hard, I won't lie XD Thanks again for fangirling with me X'D
LOL you are the best. Daesung makes me feel like a little school girl and its SO WEIRD!! Cause seriously Im way to old for that shit but I just cant help it... Atleast they are older now so it dont feel to wrong :P
the face you made when you talked about how much you love daesung is literally the face i make at him all the time. he's a ball of freaking sunshine that must be protected
JREKML Your reactions are always on point as usual. How the hell did you get it up so fast? You have a time machine hidden in your closet don't you?.....LOLOLOL Love the reaction dude. We both agree on Daesung....He looks awesome and the video was anything but Sober.
the end got me "Wow T.O.P cant jump? Really T.O.P u dont wanna jump" He isnt top if he isnt following his own trend gotta love him even more for that he is the outcast of his own world it doesnt make sense but to T.O.P it clearly does.xD
Am I the only one that's thinking of JRE while watching Sober? I'm like: OMG. How is JRE going to react to this? Would he be cussing and crying like what happened when he watched Bang Bang Bang? Damn. ㅠ ㅠ
Guys read the english lyrics it explains the video, this is why I love big bang they are the type of artist who are willing to be risky and confusing/strange, but they don't make it too hard for you to understand, just listen/read the lyrics and they explain everything to you.
I was a huge Bigbang fan since 2013 but I have up on them early this year because I was sick of waiting. But out of their comebacks this year Bang Bang Bang and Sober have seriously killed me. Both song especially Sober are just amazing (especially when daesang sings)!
it became a habit of mine to check ur reaction right after the i watch the MV solo... but yeah you're right this MV has it's own kinda feeling ! i dunno i was so happy while i was watching it that i seriously shed a tear ! bigbang never fails to surprise me ! 3 years of waiting was TOTALLY WORTH IT
When I watch reaction videos I tend to watch the video the reactor is reacting on in the video screen instead of watching the reactor's reaction. But you're reactions are just so hilarious I can't stop looking. Hahahahahaha
actually they are sober and they dont want to be like that because it makes them always remember the girls they love. its pretty late but this is what the song means.
Totally off topic but that you so much JRE for sharing the K-Pop Amino app I've only had it for a few days and I've met so many fellow K-Pop fans from all around the world! Totally different from real life where no one I know listens to Korean stuff
I love your reviews especially your reactions as the MV unfolds I'm a huge big bang fan and really admire their talent and uniqueness like you I keep N open mind and enjoy their style and creativity for what it is...however whacky and weird their mv's may appear, they ate a force to be reckoned with and big ups for their huge success with this new album and staying up on the music charts..they will always be remembered for many years to come
I watched the mv three times in a row. There was so much coming at me at once. I looked up the English translation of the lyrics. It is a very sad song. All in all , Big Bang did not fail in entertaining me. Love the mv and liked the song. Can't wait for next month.
your intros are getting more and more awesome XD the 'body-roll' comment made me laugh so hard))) love your reaction videos, they're so much fun) I always watch the MV first, and then go to your channel and it's an entirely different experience)) keep up the good work, you're great XD
The E from MADE just came out and its epic. The first is ''let's not fall in love'' then there's ''Zutter'' it a GD&TOP song but its amazing!! Please watch and react to them . you're awesome FIGHTING!!!
This song is basically Bae Bae+We Like 2 Party. Crazy and drunk and stuff. The way they just.... Yeah. Luv this reaction vid like any other. Do more pls!!
I think the concept is reality vs dreams(like that DREAMS poll they run towards) in here like Daesung playing the drums vs the real one who dreams of it more or less while doing what he doesn't really like in reality,GD maybe finding his soulmate,Ri running towards something or someone and wanting to be rich,the lyrics are sad like Crooked
MGS Codec tone...how did you know my text tone? Also, I used to dislike you're reactions because of all the dancing...then I realized I do the same thing to some extent and now you are one of my favorite people to watch! Thanks for all the great vids and keep going!!! Oh and this MV felt very 90s to me in terms of the look and color.
This song is actually really sad and listening to it, it's so much like Crooked in that it sounds really happy and fun but then you read the lyrics and it has a completely different meaning i just...THIS NEW RELEASE HAS KILLED ME
As usual, u were soooo fasttttt !! Each time any videos were released, my finger will automatically key-in 'jrekml' just to watch ur reactions ! I'm your fan from Malaysia 😎
A lot of people didn't seem to like Taeyang's new hairstyle but I'm digging it, it looks great on him! Well.. Anything looks great on these guys but you know what I mean!
