SM released. and My opinion on it.

I didn't mean to start of my post (after a week of absence) with this; but its about the only thing I can get going on...hahaha please just beruang (bear) with me on this one.

First off,
Jonghyun 2nd Mini Album.
a song called 02:34 is one of the song that have been played most among the 9 songs on the album.



The first song of this album, called The End of the Day, was actually very Jonghyun-i~ and I like it.



and this song, Like You, deserves a mention. not because I like it but because I literally laugh out loud at one point coz I thought I heard him say 'fcuk u' (not the one during the chorus. the one around 1:09-1:12 is the start. you can hear it again thru out the song) hahahaha
have a listen



and the rest of the songs in this album are just ..I'm not crazy about them.  
Maybe it's the music. as Kris (ex-member of EXO) once said, "Naega style aniya".
I know I should be more constructive with my 'criticism' but since I'm no expert (and I'm dead lazy kan berhujah or ber-debate) that's about the only polite way to say it.
that low key, breathy way of singing is also Naega Style Aniya 
I admit that I'm always so proud when I see on some article that says Jonghyun wrote the lyric of this songs and Jonghyun write and compose a song for other artists but that doesn't mean I have to like it, right? I am still entitle to my own opinion and feelings.
I listen to music to get my mind off things, and most of Jonghyun musics make me feel uncomfortable. Not because of the lyrics (coz God knows I don't understand Korean) but just the way it was 'presented'. I don't know eh cemana kan explain lagi. Go figure it out yourselves. but if you happened to like Jonghyun songs, good for you. Jonghyun made this album for you. you don't need to bash me. I still bought his original as a way of supporting his career. even though I'm just one person and may seems like I don't contribute much, the Emperor from Mulan said, 'A single grain of rice can tip the scale. One man maybe the difference between victory and defeat'. LOL nah ko! sampai Mulan ku bawa kemari ani...jua lagi aku inda making my point...hahaha

and btw, his album 'skin' is literally no skin at all. there are no Jonghyun face anywhere.
these are some of the photos from the booklet;

 I thought, "He got it wrong. this is Onew's. His should be a puppy"

this is pretty. almost like Alice in Wonderland theme. Mad-Hatter-ly.

Second off,
Taeyeon 1st Mini Album
fav song? I 



I listened and watched the mv at the same time. My initial reaction was touched. or sebak di dada. or something like that. I hate Taeyeon's acting. but the rest of the mv with the song reminds me of Ireland. I don't know why. maybe it's the green-field scene with kambing. I don't know. it just reminds me of Ireland.
and I've never been to Ireland, mind you. I mostly ever seen glimpse of it from Westlife's DVD footage. So, maybe it just reminds me of Westlife and ultimately of Ireland too.
I like the entire album. the songs choice fits Taeyeon's voice (in my opinion). music wise is well received by my ears and brain. 
But her live performance sucks. and I'm not even sorry for that. She could've done so much better. I don't know what she's trying to hide or why she's holding back. she can do better and I hope that she will. 

annddd
there ya go.
my me-making-an-effort-to-post today.

this post just shows just how you can never judge people from the outside. We will never know what's going on inside their head.
Like me; I LOVE SHINee but I can't seem to kid myself to go gaga over Jonghyun's music releases. and Taeyeon, I have been feeling annoyed with her (all the other SNSD members, really) ever since the Jessica's Cast Out drama. So, I was surprised when I fell in love with her album.

you can never know.
