'Even If I Die, I Can't Let You Go' - Dream High covers
From Dream High, IU and 2PM's Wooyoung both sang these covers. I really want a full version of IU's cover T_T I love her acoustic covers, especially the 'Gee' and 'Sorry Sorry' covers.
Comeback- miss A with 'Touch'!
Plus JYP has English subtitles! (I'm not sure how accurate they are translation-wise; I know that they weren't translations in 'Bad Girl Good Girl', more of a 'how it would sound if in English'.
On the song itself? Not bad...but not the eye-popping, shimmering, sparks-throwing comeback I was hoping for. The concept photos seen here are thought-provoking (yes, thought-provoking) and subtly sexy, but not all out there. Maybe they should've given me a hint (and I admit, they did- I was wondering about the cream-bandages-and-rose-petals versus, say, Suzy's cat ears in 'Goodbye Baby'), but I was still hoping for more.
The MV itself isn't bad, it's quite good, but the way 'Touch' is being showcased doesn't look very...exciting, for lack of a better term. It's a chill song- much more low-key than 'Goodbye Baby'. The dancing is very smooth in the movements- it's not hard-and-fast club style dancing, and neither is it full of pop-y jazz hands and jumps. It's...nice.
Overall, the MV and song are both together nice. But is nice what they were going for? I don't know, but I still love miss A.
In other words, I'm really liking the mini-album as a whole- all the songs are cohesive and they sound great, and also really different from miss A's usual style. 'Lips' especially sounds catchy to me.
The last note that I have: I loooooooooooooove Suzy's hair.
Loook~
I love the highlights.

Kpop: Antis.
For whoever is not familiar: antis are those certain people who hate a group and its member. No, I've no idea why.
Case in point: an SNSD anti.
"You’re talking about Tiffany aren’t you. Yep I hate that bitch.
XXXXX is a great singer, she surely looks better than Taeyeon and is taller!"
...what the hell? No, really, this doesn't make any sense to me. You're perfectly within your rights to not like a certain group's music and all, but the members themselves?
1. You have not met them, therefore you do not know them.
2. See number one.
The second sentence is opinion, yes. The second half of it confounds me- it's all well and good if your idea of beauty has height in it, but it definitely shouldn't be a determining factor in hating someone you have only seen third- or fourth-hand.
"Yep I hate that bitch." You don't know her...that's pretty much it.
I just don't understand antis.
Disclaimer: this is my confused response to one anti. I am by no means addressing all of the antis in the world, and this is entirely my opinion.
