Big Bang and their 5th Album "Alive" on My Review

I'm not a huge fans of Big Bang (not totally a trully VIP), but everytime they release a new album i always got interested to listening what song will come to catch my interest.

First i saw them with Haru Haru 하루하루 or called Day by Day (i think this song was trully blew up their popularity overseas as a Korean Boyband). I saw it because my cousin was forced me by showing their MV clip video in front of my eyes. And..... DAMN her ! I love the beat ! I like this song !
The first time i saw them, i didn't like the members, i just like the song. At that time (2008) i just got interested with DBSK's member.

On November 2008, I watched MKMF and were startled with Big Bang again (for the second time). It was amazing that they have beat DBSK in some nomination (Best Male Group and Artist of The Year, if i'm not wrong).
I started to find, their profile and their song. Then i become interested with "Lies".

Just go directly to 2011 (to cut all my stories around 2008 until 2011). I love when they release "Tonight", the music is so catchy with the strong beat ! Then the song officially become my morning alarm. I hope the strong beat of it will wake me up in the morning. But for sure, i never wake up.

Move forward to 2012. After "Tonight" in 2011, now they were comeback again with their 5th mini album "Alive" this year. I really didn't know about it, but at that time i've got some news from some people (included my sister), that they will released it on 29th Feb. Wow, released in unique date, their song must be interesting. And so, it does...

Now, i got addicted to play it times and decided to buy the official album ! I have pre-oredered it, and it will surely come to my hand after 6th April. Yaaaayy !!!!! *throw laptop*
I will create post about my review on the album design package soon (after it arrive)~ =]

REVIEW

So let's started our blah..blah..blah... = b

1. Alive (Intro)
First time i heard, i have no focus on it. The song is like babbling into my head (I think i was sleepy at that time). But for the second and the third time i've heard it, the song was really made you "alive". It shows like you have lost your desire or you almost give up on something;  but then you get you spirit again, become tough and strong, and ready to take any responsibilities and beat them out. After that your heart will screaming "I'm still alive".
Listen to this song : Intro_Alive


2.Blue
First song that catch my interest in this album was "Blue". It was unexpected that it feels different than any other Big Bang music i've ever heard. I got to replay it times and got addicted to it. What this song give to you is so soothing, there's a feel of someone's lonely, broken heart, emptyness, missing, but the feel was peacefull inside. Starting with smooth soft piano sound then followed by accoustic guitar, it seems not like an ordinary Big Bang's song here, but when the up-beat come on the chorus, it giving a catchy appearance of this song and confidently release who behind this. "Hey, it's Big Bang !" , then you'll happy to continue listening to it. The song itself i think, really "The true blue (loyalty of love)".

3.Love Dust (사랑먼지)
Love dust seems to be like happy ending song from a movie, but the lyrics is not was you're expected. The lyrics itself talks about break up and love remains, how times passed so quickly. But with pop-rock genre, this music is actually catchy to hear. Althrough it should be melancholic, but the upbeat is happy. This song seems like to show "You have to leave all sad things on your past, go forward and catch the better future"
Listen to this song : 사랑먼지 (Love Dust)


4.Bad Boy
This song now stands on my favorite list. After blue, Big Bang is giving more R&B slow song but in different beat. This song have slower beat than blue, more melting sounds, and a little jazzy inside. It's was retro and nostalgic. The beat wants to make your head nod and follow the rhythms. The song looks like calling you to remember about something wrong that you've did in the past and make you feel regreted about it, you feel so sorry. The song itself seems talks "Even you're leaving, i still care about you. I hope you don't forget about me, about us. Maybe we reunite again someday?"

5.Ain't No Fun (재미없어)
If i have a chance to make movie from this Big Bang album, i'll choose this song for the ending part of the movie, where the name of all cast and staff appeared. Why i was thinking like that? For the song itself, it was talked to represent or, it's a signature of G-Dragon's song (i read on soompi). Oh yes it is, as G-Dragon started this song with his rap well (look like he's singing,but he's not), what i got here -> he seems to rap look like a tired person. The lyric itself talks about the guy who have been tired of all things from his girlfriend. Just to made this simple, what this song wanna say is, "Just end here, i'm tired"<- This is why i choose it as ending song, kekeke~= b

6.Fantastic Baby
This song is trully Big Bang soul. Strong beat and fast-paced electropop tune bring you want to dance on the floor. For the truth, first time i've heard it i don't really like it. But when my sister repeat it times with a damn huge stereo bass in our rooms, i started to addicted to 'Boomshakalaka" thing. Actually, this song is "bring you to the dance floor". When talked about films, i was thinking to use this song for action or scientific act, or something robotic? Ah, something i wanna make with my machinima project.

7.Wings (날개)_DaeSung (대성) SOLO
This song is the last song to be appeared in this album. It sounds cheering for the past and seems to be happy to remember back the times passed. It was personal, not just about Dae Sung who is the only one to sing this song, but it also have a personal feelings on it. The song reflect a happy feeling in the morning. It's like "When you're wake up, get outside and looking at the sky, you feel blessed about good times happened in the past."
Listen to this song : 날개(Wings) - 대성(Dae Sung) Solo


My impression for this album :
This is a great combination of pop-dance-R&B-ballad-rock-jazz-hiphop-all things. It was a great album. At least, if you like some combination of song's genre, you should have to listening it. I never so addicted to Korean song, and heard it about 100times since DBSK, but now i realize that another group band who rises and come along with their successfull work have made a great artwork here on music. It's Big Bang yo ! And i recommend y'all to hear all of this song, for not just once !

Big Bang is...

 G-Dragon

 T.O.P

 Tae Yang

 Dae Sung

 Seung Ri

Big Bang is Back !

Dream will be JUST DREAM, If...

If you ask what is effort, all of these were called effort !

I'm sure people have their own dreams. Sometimes i heard, some people have got to reach their own dreams and become success. Another people, just be an ordinary person who always said "I think my dreams is too hard to reach, it will never happened".

What i want to discuss here, is....why some people got to reach their dream and another not?

It's not simple to answer but, when i try to answer this -> their differences in effort (escpecially hard working), condition and situation. Maybe is right?
I think IT IS RIGHT!

So many inspirational people always said this. What they said look like simple, but for the truth it is not. It said so easy, but for me it is really hard to do.

Everyone can reach their dream, if they have enough effort to do, the right condition and situation, and a little bit of luck. One thing that's important is... success people NEVER WASTE their time. For them, time is a tool for them to reach success. Their thought "If you lose some 'time', you'll lose some 'tool' to reach success, it will just make you far away from success."

I think i'll explain again about their thought, i'm sure when i first read it, it looks like mean "You will not success if you waste your time". But when i'm understand about it, their thought is not mean like that.
It is mean......
"You will lose your value of success if you waste your time. Losing value may cause you lost your success or you will success but not the 'success' thing that you really want."
That's the point...

Thinking again about it, besides "don't waste time" as a tool for reach the real success, condition and situation of life may ruin your time to get success a little bit or a lot.
I have a dreams and wants, but when situation and condition cause me not to take effort to make my dreams come true, it made me so pathethic. (I have experience this before, the situation and condition ruins me a lot. The situation and condition always realted with rules. At that time i don't have enough authority to break the rules)

If so, what will you need if your situation and condition ruins your life to get success?
A little bit of luck...

Unfortunately, at that time. I don't have luck to reach what i want. That's make me so pathethic person.

Now i'm realize, if i want to get success, i must have three things :
-. Enough time to take some effort of hard-working. (I'll not waste my time from now.)
-. Right situation and condition. (It's the hard things to control, but i'm sure we can control it ! How to... break the rules? = b )
-. Luck. (God's gift. So, just pray to God to have this thing =] )

What will you do now?
Don't waste your time to read this article twice, go and reach your success ! =]

I Love Red Not Because of Nichkhun

Why you love red? It because you are fans of Nichkhun 2PM right? Nichkhun really love red and you follow him.

Some people always said that to me when they know that i love red colour so much. One thing they don't know about me is, i love red colour NOT because i'm a big fans of Nichkhun 2PM.

Remember about Super Mario Bross?
I've been playing about that game since i was 5, and now sometimes i opened my PC to play it with PC version. (For the truth i really miss the NES version, but can't find my old nintendo anywhere =[ )

The main character, Mario, always using red suit whenever version of the game was. For the first time i saw him (the game), i didn't really understand what's going on and what must i do to finish it. Just heard from my dad that "do not touch the power button", so the game would not came back to start point. He also said that i can play the game but he warned me again for second time "do not touch the power button".

When i become 8 years old, i start to understand what type of game it was, and i really love the game. When i was primary school, i always play with my friends and one game version of Mario Bross that we loved a lot is Super Mario Bross 3 (1988).

What is Super Mario 88 ? You can see this video =]

I always played it at home, and the first time i finish the game was totally 4 hours non-stop. When i think about it now, it was kinda crazy.

What made it crazy?
That, I NEVER save the game and always remember to NOT PUSH THE POWER BUTTON.

***

Back to topic, when i love Mario so much i started to like a red colour but not so maniac. At that time i still love blue colour and didn't have any interest of red colour.

So what thing make you love the colour red so much? Is it because of Mario?
I can say it yes and no. I started to love red when i was 15 years old. Being bullied and insulted by some people as the nerd person made me want to change my character. When i heard people always saying like this, "A person who love red colour always have braveness for their life, sometimes they can called the soldier of light.", i remember Mario Bross.
Why?
The word "soldier of light", that means a hero for the goodness, remember me to Mario who always become a hero in the game and one thing made me remember him is, he always wear the red suit.

For the truth, the game maker himself coloured Mario red due to the graphical limitations of arcade hardware at the time. Miyamoto (the creator) clothed the character in red overalls and a blue shirt to contrast against each other and the background.

***

After i started to like red colour, i try to find what the colour means. I found that red colour means of anything like fearless (brave), strong, love, hardworker, courage, confidence, joy, passion, life with pleasure, thrist of action, etc. Red also symbolize a cupid and a devil (the good and the bad).

All of the meaning makes me wonder of myself. Almost all of the character of this colour seems to be like me, and one thing i don't have when i was 15 is braveness. So, i started to like this colour, and started to change my character.

Mario Bross is not the only one who make me love red colour so much. The circumstances which causing from my teenager life is also support. By the way, if you know about Mario now, he always wear a hat with a red "M" in a white circle on the front of it. My name starting with "M", the symbolize of the hat made me more and more to love red colour, it show "Red is M" that look like to means "Red Is Me".

Now i like red colour so much and not so much like for blue colour. For me, Mario Bross is the starting point for me to like red. And when he was remake and have red-blue suit, it made me perception that "inside the blue is the red", it means after the calmness die will born the fearless, don't try to fool around with this type of person.

Look at his hat and suit, made me remember that i change my past to my future now.

When you asked me do you success to change your character? For sure, i really made it. I learn that what colour you like is reflect who you are, your personality of course.

When i love blue my personality is calm, nerd, always in peace, life on burden, never want to take something which would threaten my life. But now, when i love red colour, i always take anything dangerous, i'm confidence to what i choose, i life with pleasure, took positive perception from so many people's thoughts about me.

That's better right?

Just one thing i should say to you that, don't follow me to like red colours, just be yourself~ =]
