Listening Party: EXO "Don't Mess Up My Tempo" Album Reaction - First Listen 

5:19 Sign 10:55 Ooh La La La 17:16 Gravity 28:40 With You 33:04 24/7 37:46 Bad Dream 41:56 Damage 47:22 Smile On My Face 54:48 Oasis

finally someone gave the deserved reaction to Gravity damn

FUN FACT: Each B side track is about a specific member and is based on each of their super powers! Sign is Chanyeol (fire), Ooh La La La is Kai (teleportation), Gravity is D.O (Earth/strength), 가끔 With You is BaekHyun (light), 24/7 is Xiumin (Icing/frost), 후폭풍 Bad Dream is Sehun (wind), Damage is Chen (lightning), Smile on my Face is Lay (healing), and lastly Oasis is Suho (water)!

kinda sad a lot of people just reduced a lot of these songs to just "sexy." very few actually sounds that sexy and i feel like that is totally ignoring what the song is actually about because a lot of this album the lyrics are sad. 24/7 is one of my favorites and a big reason why is because of the lyrics. the song sounds happy but the lyrics are totally different.

"The gay in me jumped out" The power of Kai lmao

when PD says Gravity is one of the best kpop songs he had ever heard, then IT IS. period.

SEHUN'S RAP IN GRAVITY. That's it, that's the comment.

*best album of the year*

the lack of people talking about suhos vocals on this album is criminal... yall going to JAIL he really served the best vocals of all time to be taken for granite like this im shaking

the cringey 14 yr olds in the chat screaming about sex the entire time for clout......... where are your parents.... go do ur homework....

u reacting to gravity is my favourite thing now

I think Sign is kind of like Transformer from EXODUS

EXO=DIVERSITY=TALENT=OUT OF THIS UNIVERSE

Tbh I think you should try and listen to as many EXO songs as you can. Personally EXO is a group were I never get tired of them. Each album have songs that are way different from each other.

lmao some of the commenters need to go bathe in holy water then confess after this livestream 😷

Exo never disappoints honestly. They are one of the few kpop groups who in my opinion have consistenly AMAZING b-side tracks (not just the title track) Theyre called ALBUM KINGS for a reason and sell a million copies with each release. When you wait for an Exo comeback you dont wait for the MV or the Title track you wait for the WHOLE ALBUM and the 2 new songs in the repack.

GRAVITY has that LUCKY ONE vibes. ❤

21:02 *PD realising that they have been missing out on so much of exo's music*

Gravity is amazing. There is a "LDN Noise 'Behind The Beat' - EXO Gravity" video, they reveal all the layers of the song there, it's really cool.

Gravity is THAT song! Anyways thanks for uploading PD

u really cant limit exo's genre bc they literally tried/trying everything

Gravity left me wigless, the first time I listened to it with my eyes closed while laying in bed and I felt like I time-traveled when I was done listening to it, like... No kidding, that song took me places, I couldn't even analyze it because it hit me so hard on the feels. And I think it's my favorite exo song at the moment, like, based on the type of stuff I like now (I've liked exo for around 5 years now and I feel like I've grown with them sort of... I started listening to them when I was 14 and I'm now 19y/o so... I used to like other songs from them at other times but based on my preferences now, which can change in the future and for sure are not the same as before, I think gravity is my favorite song, that's what I mean with "what I like now").

LOL @ people saying Sign sounds like Monsta X or NCT. EXO did Transformer before those 2 groups even had their debut.

OH MY GOD 1 HOUR OF YOU AND EXO IM SO READY

ok but what you *REALLY NEED* to listen to is their japanese album "countdown" (you don't have to film a reaction since i know you can't post japanese content here but honestly it's a top tier album)

There was...NO REASON FOR YOU TO GO THAT DEEP FOR SMILE ON MY FACE. I came hear for a good time dances and smile but you cant just come after my emotions like that. But yes this is one of if not the Best exo album. I said it i meant it you cant change my mind it might have dethroned exodus but I need to see how it ages.

Oasis is so beautiful. Like you said, it sounds like goodbye but also not in a sad way. It's more like "We're leaving for now. Don't worry though, we'll reunite once again." It makes a great conclusion to the album in my opinion. When they all started singing together, it was beautiful. It just makes me feel at home

People just come for the "sexy" EXO and say almost each and every song is "sexy" and "sexual" when in fact it isn't and it's so unnecessary and SMH appreciate the songs and vocals and rappers and NOT JUST THEIR SEXINESS because EXO (or any artist/anyone) is MORE THAN JUST THEIR SEXINESS.

Why EXO slay any genre? bcs you know, those vocals can do anything! everything EXO sings is already amazing :)

D.O's vocals on this album are my favorite of all he has done and it's not even on his looks cuz I'm not even physically attracted to him but I will admit his voice just idk I guess just makes me smile and it's so relaxing

ooh la la la, gravity and smile on my face are my faves on this album and im not that much into exo so i was surprised to like this album that much!

YOU LOVE LAY AND XIUMIN WHAT AN INTELLECTUAL 🔥🔥🔥 EXO THAT AMAZING AMAZING SIDE TRACKS IN ALL THEIR ALBUMS I'M NOT SAYING BECAUSE I'M AN EXO-L BUT I BECAME AN EXO-L BECAUSE OF THEIR MUSIC ESPECIALLY THEIR BALLADS I legit screamed

all exo songs deserves an mv. 💞

PD had me so soft in this (even if the comments weren’t. Y’all need Jesus). Like his dancing and reactions were so cute and when he pressed the headphones closer to his ears during Oasis to hear the violins and his sleeves were covering his hands, i bust mad uwu’s

"But what EXO did was... they took SynthWave... FED IT CRACK... and then give it that Kpop twist". *The best description for a song ever.* Lmao

dont mess up my tempo is exo's fucking IT. i really didn't expect much bcs the album came so so late this year. when i was first listen to the whole album, i was like, wow this song is geeewwd. and then the next song came up, i was like wHat?! why is this so freaking good? like every single freaking song is so lit. and when it came to the end i was like DAMN it reminded me how i got to stan exo all along, they know what they're doing and they're so good at it, they made it happen for us exo-l, PERIOD. honestly, i CANNOT not be there for exo.

GRAVITY IS LEGENDARY

sign = nct songs? lol these people definitely haven't heard The war album. go listen to exo's previous album please, all of them are golden!

If you've heard any Daft Punk, you've heard serious influences of Vaporwave. Gravity could have literally been penned for Tron 2. This song was created by LDN (LonDoN) NOISE, also gives reference right in the beginning to Power, which they also crafted. I am always shocked that no one ever notices. Yeah, I see them comment during Bad Dreams!!! 😆😆😆😆😆😆 It's definitely a song for grinding those hips to!!! But damn y'all need the bath in the holy water!!! AND, YESS!!! PLEASE DO LISTEN TO THE NCT REGULAR/IRREGULAR &SIMON SAYS REPACKAGED ALBUM!!!! PLEASE DO THAT!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Oasis is personally my favourite song its so refreshing idk the first time i heard it i was like WOW , also Im so excited for your reaction to The Boyz' new song because the cinematography is so interesting

His reaction during gravity says it all. Exo is that powerful 🤣🤣🔥👏👏👏

ALBUM OF THE YEAR

PD glad you did this listening party....If you listen to EXO's whole album, you'll realize why they continue to be one of the most anticipated Kpop groups CB. Every album they released are truly remarkable.

I got teary-eyed when I first heard Gravity, it is THAT good

YOU GOTTA DO FIRST LISTEN TO ALL ALBUMS, MINI's too!!! PLZ!!! they have the craziest, unexpected drops, tempo changes and most interesting bridges and very old-school inspired 80's, 90's music but with a modern twist. you will see that if you listen to them more. Also, I think ppl who dont know EXO or are prejudiced bcz of whatever reason, really dont understand their level of versatility, talent and ability to do literally ANY genre. as you go from their first to latest album you will see the amount of growth they had and how far they have come not only as group but as individuals and have expanded their repertoire out of their assigned roles at the time of debut. no one can pull off things that they do and you dont see yourself even imagining of a group who cud do it.Saying that its just sexy music is also unfair bcz yes it may sound sexy but contrary to general idea their lyrics are also meaningful.

EXO is a revolution,both musically and by performances.EXO can't be analysed quantitatively,but rather qualitatively. And they always score Big on that.

I guess we can all agree that Gravity is one of the utt best songs from exo, LDN Noise and Chanyeol were not playing in the making

Gravity is a superior power 😎

*Sehun snapped this comeback*

FYI Gravity ranked.1 for best and most listened to side tracks of 2018 for all artists Korea.

I love SKY's (Sehun/Kai/Yeol) parts in the album. Especially Kai's voice. 💖

I CANT BELIEVED YOU ONLY HEARD EXO RNB SONGS? RNB SONGS ARE ONLY THEIR BONUS THEIR OTHER SONGS ARE MOSTLY BOPS

Sign: 5:25 Ooh La La La: 10:58 Gravity: 17:21 With You: 28:46 24/7: 33:06 Bad Dream: 37:51 Damage: 41:57 Smile On My Face: 47:25 Oasis: 54:52

I know lots of people will ask you that, but you should REALLY listen to other Exo albums; like, at least for personal knowledge haha, because it's such a loss to not know them! I understand you were not into Exo music, but now that you have listened to a full album, you do understand title tracks is clearly not what make exo-l so into their music. Personally NONE of the title tracks are my fav, even far from it haha. Also some random listening to some songs is not really representative, people should listen to the album overall! I don't think you're gonna like Xoxo album (I LOVE IT SO MUCH THOUGH UGH), but you should definitely give a shot to "the War" and "Universe" (moreover since you liked the title track of the later so much there's no doubt you would fall (hehe, fall) for the album, which is basically on the same mood.) I would like to recommand everything actually, starting from their very first one, or their japanese "countdown" etc, buuut, I think you'll get the motivation if you liked the war and universe as much as this one haha. It's great fucking music, it'd be suuuch a shame to not listen to more hehe. Well, that being said, THANKSsss for that great reaction, I enjoyed it (and the comments lmao), love

Smile On My Face melody somehow reminds me of old ballads like How Did I Fall In Love With You or something. I can actually imagine Backstreet Boys singing to this song

PD was malfunctioning during Gravity!!! A glitch in the Matrix!!! 🤣😂🤣😂 This was complete 80’s Miami Vice music I grew up with!!!🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️

the best k-pop reactor ever reacting to the best k-pop album ever by the best k-pop group ever!! ICONIC

Gravity has that heavy Daft Punk vibe. Producers of Gravity, LDN, have a "making of" vid for this track that is amazing.

pd freaking out about sehun's lines was my reaction the first time

Oasis was the very first song I heard when I fell in love with EXO. It was like an official sound track of a movie or a background of a scene where you are above the clouds and you see an areal view of rolling green hills where deers & horses are running in one direction-that kind of feel....

*EXO DROPS A BEST ALBUM OF 2018* EVERY SONG IS SO DIVERSE AND EPIC 👏 *HAND'S DOWN*

'no nut November has left the chat' *sis.same*

20:34 I got real confused on what I was watching again

*Oasis* is my Fav💕.

If you prefer dark heavy bass sound, I recommend you their EXODUS and The War album. ☺️👌 Actually, you’ll find something heavy in all their albums. 😆

chanyeol really does add to the songs greatly. i cant imagine any other rapper rapping in EXO songs. chanyeol's voice just has an EXO vibe, if that makes sense.

“If y’all don’t like Sehun, y’all don’t have taste” And that’s on periodt cookie. 🙌🏼💯

Fact: Exo can slay all music genre. 😊

I love Gravity too!! I already predicted the song would be my favorite since the teaser, and apparently it is.

I love how shook he was when he heard Smile On My Face. Like he genuinely did not know what to say or how to react other than a dropped jaw. And honestly this song is _so_ powerful and beautiful. You get this feeling of wanting to cry but also wanting to smile. It's so freaking touching

That was exactly my reaction the first time I listened to Gravity... and every time I listen to it!

Shit pd got me with the hidden pain/Smile On My Face interpretation. That's exactly what I'd been feeling from the song, and oml I started tearing up 😢

Lol he needs to listen to the rest of their albums because he will no doubt find more favorites

Most channels fake it but FOT I can count on to give actual, legit, criticism, thank you. Also I’m gonna put in a request for ‘get cool’ by Stray Kids

Kyungsoo, Chanyeol and Sehun shined a lot in this album :')

Chanyeol literally killed it during the entire album. His line in smile on my face is my favorite line in the entire album

Gravity is my JAM lol

EXO switch up the tempo (ironically) or tone at the bridge. It’s something I’m noticing more and more with their newer songs. They become less predictable and really keep you listening. I’m guilty of skipping songs in the car like you but I know with EXO it’s a build up with the best to come before the mellow it out again. It’s a slow build and then release unlike of like most kpop songs these days. I feel like a lot of songs feel like they have to be catchy from the get go to pull people in. EXO are confident enough in their style in versatility that they don’t feel the need to do this as much? I feel like Gravity would have been a better title track because of this. Tempo gives the catchy chorus almost right away but the bridge changes it up enough to keep it to that same versatile style...anyways! Thank you for giving this a chance.

Tbh Sign reminds me of exo basically.. like their Overdose and transformer. Btw nct's limitless is the most exo like song they have. Nct are their juniors, and the producers at sm do a lot of song shuffling, limitless was given to them. And now sm is trying to expand on the same genre for nct.

Rewatching this after watching you just uploaded your first listen to Obsession. Your reaction to Gravity and the "they took synthwave, fed it crack and gave it that K-pop twist" never fails to get me 😂😂

Your reaction to gravity is totally my reaction when I first heard it

thank you so much for uploading this!!

yehey! Thank you for this! Still waiting for GOT7's present you 1st listen and diving deeper!

Damage sounds like they are preparing to kick someones ass (and actually do this in Sign)

I was JUST about to study

Finally, someone gave "Gravity" the attention it deserves 💛 I always feel it's somehow underrated.

I just see an eargasm with Gravitygasm... because is a songasm itself! Thats the marvelous match with EXO + London Noise. Thanks God for this.

It's funny how you mentioned Chen when describing Damage because it's Chen's song

The pure bliss on your face when Chanyeol starts rapping in Gravity is a mood

a year later im watching it again and oh godd gravity still gives me that chills im gonna go watch gravity lives again. i think you should really check out pdnim if you still haven't watched

SEHUN GETTING THE RECOGNITION HE DESERVES - YES

D.O's voice.....every álbum....every year....every single time

THIS WAS SO MUCH FUN TO WATCH THANKS FOR UPLOADING THIS HERE PD

i come here once a month just to see pd’s reaction to gravity lmao it’s precious

I thought the same way when I started listening to Gravity, I already knew it would be my favorite, and indeed it was/is. Also, the way D.O. sings "...butjapgo isseo" is the end for me... not enough, Baek comes to me with the second verse that is THAT

i love the way he explain oasis.... i hear you pd. its like... the main character reachs his/her goal and looks on top of a mountain and sees a new world full of misterys

Are you going to listen to other EXO albums in the future?

Gravity ended pd... That's how powerful it is!! And Chanyeol wrote gravity base on Kyungsoo's power which is strength!!

Album of the year. All of the songs are THAT song

and this why i love him u kno, he's literally know music and he isn't that reactioners who just being hyped or maybe "fake hyped" about the music and reactions
