*PETITION FOR T.O.P TO PERFORM THIS ON AN AWARD SHOW AT 2020 AND SAY "LONG TIME NO SEE, LONG LONG TIME NO SEE" KPOP WILL LOOSE ITS OXYGEN INCLUDING ME*
10 years Later and its still one of the most insanely artistic korean music videos ever made. Theres so many art references, film references, eastereggs, etc. T.O.P. really needs to come back to show us more of this artistic side to him. He'll easily top the charts/media with his style and concepts.
@awesomestuffies 2001 space oddesy reference of evolution, dadaism movement, some references to crying baby being born into a world of chaos while riding having an evolutionary friend, etc. Also I think one of the costumes is from Django unchained.
Dada is from Dadaism, a satirical art movement formed in negative reaction to the horrors of WWI. Doom is synonymous with destruction. The nuclear bomb, apes, and skeletons symbolize the extinction of humankind. It's a metaphor for how the world [mass media] tries to destroy a person's individuality, but their art will be preserved and used to inspire future generations (the apes discover a mic = T.O.P's music). The giant baby is the innocence of his artistic integrity. IDK the lyrics but this was my interpretation of the MV!
Divina Commedia It’s such a mature take on flexing skills and showing personality and taste. I’m just floored every time I hear/see it, because he’s holding back, it really is about making a really good song - building and showing nuance, not so much about passing out from lack of oxygen, but he let’s us know he could go there. That’s how to stand the test of time.
why is this so addicting ??? when i listened to this for the first time i thought this is a weird song but now my replay button broke xD Edit: when did my comment get 2700 likes ?! You're crazy 😂 xD
Siac Jayakarta NGL, from all the hype BTS got, I hoped they would be like a newer version of BIGBANG but the more I listen, the more I like BIGBANG 🤷♀️
This is by far the hottest korean rap song, sung by THE best Korean rapper of all time. I mean come on. Sick flows, deep vocals, with that Visual. Sorry. No one come close to him. Period.
@@marcusgunn2614 salvatore riina, joe masseria, joe profaci, russel bufalini and so on they're all overweight and ball and T.O.P. just looks like a model
I don’t understand Korean people and idols, as far as I know, they never take TOP as their role model or idol of their music career or rap world. But, they follow TOP’s path, and transforming underground rapper to idol rapper. And the biggest thing is, every idol group has a member of deep voice and talented one responsible for rapper of this group. This is the blueprint of TOP. Why Korean are reluctant to admit that TOP is one of their inspirations.
True. I don't understand why. T.O.P is a genius, maybe idols really idolize GD because he has more solos and more active compare to T.O.P., bingu tabi has only 6 solos. I love GD but T.O.P is a genius in writing songs too, it's just sad that his not into solo.
@@ACChannel08 yeah, I agree with your point. May be he doesn’t have many solo songs and solo album. Actually, it’s enough to judge on his rap verse in Bigbang songs. So sad for TOP.
@@phoopwintkhine9004 He doesn't really care about solo album, hoping he will release a full solo album when he comeback. He teases us solos in his IG. Praying that it will be a solo ablum but if it's a subunit again with GD it's okay.
Thanks for this comment, just wanted to write that. It think this is one of the best tracks, and MVs, in K-pop. I am amazed how they planned harmonics on simple syllables in the chorus. Featured this track in my 2014 thesis. Interesting that the groups of that time mostly vanished and trends developed differently that I've been predicting.
Mia LikesDubstep now you got to add seeing him perform it live at a concert to your bucket list. I got to see it and it almost blew me back into my chair - highlight of the BB concert for me.
No kidding. That's exactly what I thought the first time I heard it (a couple months ago). I like Big Bang, and a couple G-Dragon songs are at the top of my list. But I was NOT prepared for how much I would love this song. It's a standalone masterpiece! TOP, come back!!!!
I will crying...and scream 'yess in deed been missing you TOoooppppp'...in case in their future concert you heard that scream in the crowd , it's must be me 🙋
I'm so so worried about him, he seems really sad lately and has said explicitly that he isn't okay. We as V.I.Ps need to do everything we can to support him and whatever decisions he may make. The number of Korean idols' deaths influenced by similar situations has been increasing frighteningly recently, and we need to make sure he is okay. We love you, T.O.P!
@@honhonhonbaguettes Thank you ! And yes ! VIP's are always for T.O.P ! And fore G-Dragon, and for Seungri, and for Daesung and for Taeyang !! VIP forever ❤❤❤❤❤
@@clfdclementine5215 I will always be here for T.O.P, GD, Daesung, and Taeyang. I have a fear that I cannot trust Seungri, but I will always support him if he truly is innocent. I don't believe he deserves the hate he has gotten, even if he did have something to do with these things.

Me before: I want a prince charming riding a white horse.... Me after watching Doom Dada: I want a prince like TOP riding a zebra.. 😂❤👑 Only Tabi.. ❤❤❤❤❤
I think YT give me a chamber of secrets like in Harry Potter, but as I said, nothing stop fan girl, I will divide it into 3 comments, see which part is the magic one.😂😂😂 btw, I am more concerned about has anyone see my post about petition in mandrain?
@@lecampagnardfandestarwars5597 Yes, lol. I think we(VIPs) tend to get lazy with out periods sometimes(myself included). But he is most definitely Mr. T.O.P
This song is aging really well. It sounds good 10 years later and will still sound good in 10 years from now. It was very "out there", outside of the trends, which is a risky bet but in this case it paid off really well. TOP can be proud of what he achieved as an artist.
I cant wait for the day that Seunghyun comes back. When he says Doom Dada the ground will shake and all haters will fall silent and i will be slayed. #TheKingWillNeverDie
@Yoongi /Army He'll be done next year June 30th. If you mean comeback as in music, we have no idea. The dude debuted in 2006 and have only 2 solo songs (that aren't part of BIGBANG albums). We know better than to keep asking him, he'll do it when he feels ready. He just doesn't like promoting alone.
I want his bitch ex-gf to fall and be slain first. The stupid woman wants to stop TOP on coming back, blackmailing him with stuff. She's so bitter because even TOP made a mistake, VIPs are willing to forgive him and support him while she, fortunately, will not have a chance to debut as an artist.
Are you kidding me? Were having a discussion about history and racism? Really?? That's not the point here. did we forget about the sexy man singing the interesting song?
SarahGrace Williams I give a crap if people are here trying to excuse the use of the n-word. Although it's weird as fuck to discuss it since T.O.P does not use the word in this song anywhere,
SunyiSideUp I don't not give a crap about racism. I hate it it's stupid and I get livid talking about it it's terrible. But I just mean why here on this video. It's random and like you said he didn't even say it in the song!
umm... actually he does get tremendous attention probably not as much as the active days of 2007-2011 or 2012. But i think most of times, people are way too focused on his good looks...though he has many other talents..For example, in comment section under his mv or the latest commercial video, many only talk about how handsome or hot he is. That's just one thing i noticed when looking for his stuffs to enjoy some of his music.
Good point Yoon Marie! He is beautiful so it's hard not to focus on how handsome he is. But I still think he has a lot to offer musically and I am hopeful we will hear more soon. I just want his star to keep shining brightly:)
Flavian Ho hes already famous alot enough he shows off alot his shirtless body anyways and his amazing solo albums daesung the 1 who needs more attention
Can we just straight up talk about how sexy he is? I mean c'mon..... You gotta admit he’s hella fine and always will be. That deep voice and rapping of his gets me everytime
jawline, killer stare, looks good in eyeliner, deep voice, talented.... the list goes on. Also he doesn't show his body very often which probs makes people more interested, kind of like the idea behind playing hard to get
TOP is NOT in jail. He was NEVER sentenced to prison. His sentence was 2yrs probation and will spend 10 months in jail ➡ONLY⬅ if he broke another law. Right now he's serving the rest of his military enlistment as a public worker at the Seoul Yongsan District's Office and will be done on June 30 2019. I'm just gonna leave this here for those that don't know but still open their mouths as if they know. EDIT: According to the new system (since the Ministry of National Defense has agreed to lower enlistment length), TOP is now expected to be discharged on the 27th of June next year. Edit Edit: His last day of service is July 6th, last officiall day is July 8th.
Little Weirdo I think when some people read 10 months sentence with 2yrs suspension, they actually think it means automatic 2yrs in prison. *sigh* I just want people to know the truth and stop spreading false information.
I miss the fans that would have in depth conversations about the song and mv and talk about things that they liked. Nowadays people just say things like mentioning looks, bringing other groups down, and making jokes or stupid comments to get likes
T.O.P is not someone who needs our sympathy. No need to say poor baby. He knows what kind of art he wants to create and he create it without apology. Art cannot and should not be dictated by anyone. And if anyone believes that art is something confined and limited then please go study the history of the world's greatest artists! The playwrights, the poets, the musicians, the composers, the painters, the sculptors...the best of the best thought outside the box. They expressed emotions both light and dark, they explored the human psyche, and created works that evoked our imagination. T.O.P does just that. This man is an artist in every fiber of his body. So, to those expressing sympathy please save it. There is not a single member of BB who does not hold their own or express their artistic freedom. That is what makes BigBang a cut above the rest of kpop. Good day all of you. VIPs here's to us and here's to BB and here's to our Tabi!
The person doesn't even know what GD and TOP look like. They mixed up their parts in the mvs think they are the same person. Lol when some doesn't even have correct info or basic facts they should not speak as if they are stating facts.
@@ribbitlillypad7846 correct! If that comment had been submitted in my class as a response it would have red marks all over for failing to make sense, use reliable information, using incorrect examples, and not even knowing the subject of their comment. My students learn how to properly and correctly submit a response that is an opinion.
@Sherloft Love I still remember him winning an award on one of the weekly music shows when it came out and there wasn't even any promotions for it. Neither did he perform it on the show. So glad he at least performed it in MAMA that year. This song is such a gem.
I've been calling my dog to me for like 5 minutes straight but officially gave up. Then right when I playing this he comes running. Like yes dog come listen to T.O.P
God, I always know that T.O.P is handsome but this video really fuckin' highlights it Even though there's so much freaky shit going on in the background all I can focus on is his face and the way his eyes are focused on the camera completely. He's so damn fine this isn't f a i r
Half of me feels like this video has a deeper meaning to it, and the other half of me is too distracted by T.O.P's face to try and figure out what that meaning is.
Dana Williams Please direct me to where I can find this person's explanation of the video lol. I'm sure it had some science references in it, especially with the primates being in it and all I was sensing a kind of evolution sense from it.
