Chikai (誓い) is DAI’s second newest song. It’s very good. Classic DAI.

The music video consists of live footage. The sound goes flat in a few places, where they cut to the live audio.

 

Saw this video today and it’s so funny. It’s a medley of different K-Pop groups in 8bit sound and graphics.

Some group members stand out more than others, like T-ara’s Bo-ram, 2NE1’s Dara, f(x)’ Sulli and SNSD’s Yu-ri :lol: .

IU selca

I must make an IU post today! I was listening to her songs today and I felt the need to upgrade the ratings on some of them. Some that I felt were average have really grown on me. I listen to IU all the time, but this particular listening session was prompted by the selca that IU posted on her Me2day earlier today (click the picture on the right). It’s the cutest thing I’ve seen in a long while! *melts*

Speaking of IU, I’ve been meaning to post a video of Raindrop and now seems like as good a time as any ;) . It’s a nice song. This performance is perhaps not the most emotion packed that IU has done, but it’s the only one I have.

It didn’t take many seconds before I was using the picture above as the wallpaper for my cellphone lock screen. Now, I can’t help but smile each time I pick up my phone :)

Lucifer is probably my favourite SHINee song. It was requested a while back by Stella.

I’m a bit disappointed with the music video though. They’re not flying around in the air with Wolverine claws shooting lasers like they did at SMTown Paris :lol: .

 

OK, I can’t wait for this song to be released any longer, so I made a PV rip of the song to listen to for the time being.

Update: added 320 kbps CD rip. Tags are in Japanese.

LG Roboking

I recently bought an LG Roboking robotic vacuum cleaner and thought I’d write up a review of it, and perhaps clear up some misconceptions I’ve seen online.

The version I got is the LG Roboking VR6171LVM, which is the second newest Korean model at the moment. The Roboking is sold under the name LG Hom-bot in a few European countries, but not here in Sweden.

I will be comparing it to my old iRobot Roomba Discovery SE (4xx-series). I’ve been using the Roboking daily for about two and a half weeks.

Prepare for a loooong read :) . […] there’s more! »

 

I’ve been using Roly-Poly as my ringtone for a couple of weeks now. I normally don’t get many calls at work, but last week I spoke a lot on the phone and all day my phone went ♪Lolli-polli~lollilollipolli~♪, but none of my co-workers complained.

It was so hard to choose which performance to post. Some have nicer outfits, some better expressions. So I gave up and just picked this one :lol: .

Here’s a performance of Roly-Poly in Copacabana, which is the second version of the song. I prefer the original song, but this one is good too. The choreography is a bit different. Eun-jung, So-yeon and especially Ji-yeon look great here. Enjoy! :)

Mr. Simple is the title track of Super Junior’s latest album and it sounds pretty much like their previous hit songs… all mixed into one. I can hear 미인아 (Bonamana) and the woooo-o-o from Super Girl somewhere in there. The song is all over the place. Kind of like a medley of a bunch of songs.

What I like most about Super Junior is the synchronized dancing and you get your dose of that in this video. And the song does grow on you (despite my aversion to song titles starting with “Mr.”).

If you already bought the album, be ready to pony up more dough, because version B will be released next week.

Requested by joonxfan95 and SimpleMe.

 

New K-Pop groups pop up all the time. This group is called Chocolat (쇼콜라) and just released their debut song Syndrome. I happened to watch the video on allkpop and it’s not bad. It’s pretty generic sounding, but it’s kind of catchy.

They should just have cut out the ending of the video, because it’s so awkward that I feel embarrassed watching it :lol: . I cringe every time.

It’s kind of hard to form an opinion on this group since they mainly focus on the girl named Tia. When she has her hair up in a ponytail and wears the red skirt and colourful top, she kind of reminds me of Wonder Girls’ So-hee from their Tell Me days. Their faces don’t look alike, but the style is kinda similar. Tia is actually almost one year younger than So-hee was when Tell Me came out :shock: . I wouldn’t have thought so when I first watched the video. Suddenly I feel dirty for posting this.
