MONSTER is about BIGBANG telling everyone who sees them as monsters that they are not really a monster. That they are imperfect, commit a lot of mistakes but they are not monsters. During BIGBANG dark times, a lot of people hated them, wishing them dead, to stop making music. They were called monsters. So BIGBANG dedicated them this song.
The lyrics hits deep, and the MV concept is wild. I remember when they performed it on a japanese tv show, it's so wild to see the costumes out of the MV LMAO. But their Monster in Me costume... Whew (Its kinda funny to me bc GD got a mushroom hat, Daesung got numbers tatted on his boobs, and Taeyang's hair became a meme but TOP looks so hot it's insane)
When kpop was still very traditional, people hated BIGBANG’s revolution and avant-garde, and called them monsters and evil existences. If you read the lyrics of "Monster", you can probably understand their feelings
Really like this mv - enjoyed hearing how you felt about their voices and music. The lyrics to Monster are so good. GD is great with lyrics and TOP in writing his own lines. Would be nice to be fluent in Korean to get the full experience of the song. Back in 2012 this mv took the record for highest number of youtube views in one day :)
This is not always recommended but it's one of my fav bigbang songs. Please check out 'love song' the vibe of the song is so chill n nice n I love their styles there
Love this song. The live version of this would be great. Please can we can the LIVE for CAFE, IF YOU and CANDLE/FOOL OF TEARS - these live versions are just wow!
Sadly no. RU-vid blocked my stream because they don’t like copyrighted music to be played during a stream. I have to start doing reaction streams on Twitch.
