E-E-Electric Shock

OK

This song

totally

ROCKS!

We love this song

The dragon base line

and the super catchy chorus

has pushed this music video to around

16 million views!

And I'm sure it will keep on going

Now we usually have something to complain about when we are reviewing a song

but it was really hard to find something to complain about with this song

Biggest complaint that we could thing of is that

this song kinda sounds like really similar to fx's other songs

But it doesn't really bother us that much

so we're not gonna put it up there in a complaint section

Hello, complaint section

NO.1 My parrot is dead

NO.2 fx's recent songs are so much to the last song

but it still rocks

Scratch that last one

Start to finish, we just love this song

and we think it perfectly fits to fx's style

and we are happy to see fx back in the game

Now, some people think that we are keep on ragging on SM

But really our favorite songs of the year comes from SM

SHINNEE, 'Sherlock' is still intensely awesome

and EXO's 'I lost my pants' song is just as flawless as ever

even though "RIPPITO FLIPPITO SIPPI slow motion"

SM makes some really awesome music

We just wish we could say the same thing about their music videos

which their tendency to trap their artists in oddly rooms

are really painfully boring

They are colorful that's for sure

but plotless and

super

duper

scooper uncreative

But honestly, Simon and I have discussed this really a lot ousted of our videos

and we have come to a kind of shocking conclusion

From SM's perspective,

Why would they wanna spend more money for a creative music video?

And we don't mean this as sarcastically

If the song sounds good,

people will listen to it and watch the music video

And if they don't like the music video, doesn't really matter

because fan groups will watch the music video on loop

regardless of how boring and repetitive the music video is

because they wanna show their support for their favorite group

So.. how making a creative music video

really will help out SM Entertainment?

They are getting tens and tons of views regardless

and so they think

It ain't broke don't fix it!!

Now for their new groups, like EXO

SM is still trying to impress people

and get new fans into the group

So of course they are going to make a bigger budget video

But for the stable groups who has got tons of support

I guess it's a waste of money to spend money on a big budget video

However, if they are interest in getting new people into Kpop

People who aren't into Korean culture

or aren't into Korean music

or have no association with Asian culture

then they've gotta need to change up their music video a bit

That's all I'm saying

Even though we super duper love this song

I'm personally getting really bored

with the really predictable music video machine

which is SM Entertainment

Oh look what a surprise

fx is wearing bizarre, mix-match, neon clothing

ooh.. cactus earring

one single Junsu banana earring

a single dinosaur earring

ooh Amber is wearing a fashionable gold pack

as a life vest

and she just have one sock

which is covered in random vegetables

And she pulled the whole look together with her army shorts

I mean I get it

fx is suppose to be SM's like

corky bizarre dressed group

But c'mon

Isn't it possible for them to grow a bit and

to change

and to wear that is actually fashionable and cool looking?

They always look like a dollar store exploded all over them

I mean what could possible have happened

fx to be stuck to this particular image?

Hey Joe

I'm punching out ok?

Oh good night buddy, i'll see you later

Good night~ / You too~

oh...crap!!!!

Argh!! I'm gonna get fired for this

Ah... which one goes where...

oh...god

Maybe this here

and.. this there

Ah...god I hope that's enough

Oh god.. they'll never know!

They'll never know!

Horrendously unfashionable decide

that flashy boxes that SM is consistently trapping their artist in their music videos

For once,

it's kind of relevant

The song is called the Electric Shock

and you can see the neon light kind of flowing

almost like an electrical current

So that sure SHOCKINGLY make sense

Get it? Shock

Shockingly..

Make sense....

(Martina) You cut off my joke in the beginning

OH because your joke wasn't funny

The song is about falling in love

but playing with the is kind of

like a heart bouncy kind of metaphor which make sense

Dancing with your friends and playing with catarrhous and taisors

is just a little bit unfair

In last, that kind of SM is your thing

SM Entertainment

Safety word for tonight is banana

And then there is a part of the song

where they are describing to a doctor

they symptoms that they are feeling

Hello, I'm a doctor

Doctor, I've got the weirdest symptoms and I'm really worried

Tell me about them

Well for starters, I think i'm going blind

I can see that

Please continue tacky lady

Also I'm out of breath

I have a fever

I can bearly speak

And my ears are ding dong ding dong

ding dong ding dong is not a clinical term

carry on

Also my head spinning and also my heart is beating very fast

Is that all?

Yes doctor, those are my symptoms

I...I think i'm in love

and I think your dying from super mega gita black plaid

with a side of leopard seat

please touch your armpits

ooh,.. tender

oh.. oh yah

We're gonna need a lock down and core 1 team on super tacky lady

WHAT? My name is Amber

okay? Not super tacky lady

Amber!!!

[the dance]

I thought the dance for this song was pretty cute

Not quite what I imagined for a song called Electric Shock

this dance looks kind of more like a bysap curl

Yah... you guise ready?

You ready to sweat??

You ready to do it? Let's do it

Alright! Let's go

One two~ Oh yeah~~~

One two~ Oh yeah~~~

OH...NO..

I'll take that back

I'm sorry I'll take that back

Because I expected more sharp and quick like more fierce

something like violent like electrical feel

like running through all different members

when they touch each other sets up like a domino effect dance moves

like someone is being electrocuted

That would have been really cool

But I did really like the members like criss cross around each other

and moved a lot around the stage

But it wasn't really intricate and catchy as their past dances

like NU-ABO and Danger

[the english ]

As for the English of this song we've gotta say

4 out of 5

It's gotta the typical amount of cool English words sprinkled throughout the song

and we are quite impressed with the word electric

Having the vast potential of disastrous mispronunciation

was actually pronounced just fine

But there is one word in this song that doesn't make no sense

Gazy?

Ge-ge gazy

I'm not sure if they are trying to say gaze

as with in your eyes

or gauge as in a tool for measuring stuff

But that doesn't make one drop of sense to me

Frankly I wanna give them a 3 out of 5 with that horrendous word

but Martina insisted on a 4 out of 5

but in my heart of heats

I give you 3 and that's the only thing that matters

I think it's a three

I've been noticing these kind of patterns from fx's

I know some of them speak English fluently

but the lyrics seem as if they have the vocabulary of a 2 year old

In Danger we had

dadadadadadada!!

In N we had

nanananananana!!

And here we have

Na na na na na na!!

Hey fx and 2NE1, I'm on to your nonsense language

My next guess, give it to 2 years from now

You're not even gonna sing a English or a Korean song

but a baby talk

[the showdown]

Last week asked which retro throw back song you preferred

Infinite with Paradise

or U-kiss in Believe

and the winner was...

Infinite

by like....

A LOT

sounded exactly like it, didn't it?

It was perfect

I know, it was like exact cover of the song

You are really accurate at this thing

YES!

For this week's childhood vocabulary edition we ask

which nonsense language do you prefer?

fx's "na na na na na" in Electric Shock

or 2NE1's "bam baratatata" in I'm the Best

WHOOH...this is going to be nasty battle, isn't it?

Leave your votes in the comments

or in our Facebook pole

and we'll announce the winner next week

Also next week's KPOP Music Monday is going to be really hard
