New Releases

Now here are a few new releases for November and December.



K.A.R.D- You In Me

This is  K.A.R.D's latest single which is from their 2nd EP You & Me. You In Me was released on 21st November as the first single from the EP, which came out on the same day. It's about a relationship which goes badly wrong due to obsession. Click on "Subtitles/closed captions on YouTube for English subtitles!



There's also a choreography video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvKkaCkWjvY



K.AR.D- Trust Me (J.Seph and Jiwoo version)

The video for Trust Me was uploaded to YouTube on 6th December. There are two versions and this is Jiwoo and J.seph's version. (Presumably they'll do a video for the BM and Somin version too). I don't think it's a single, just a promo video, but all songs can be bought separately on iTunes.

 

I plan to listen to the rest of You & Me, so look out for a future post on the other songs :)



Red Velvet- Peek-A-Boo

Red Velvet have a new single called Peek A Boo. It's from their 2nd full length album Perfect Velvet, and both single and album were released on 17th November. Bit of a weird video but interesting!






MONSTA X-DRAMARAMA

MONSTA X brought out the single DRAMARAMA at the beginning of last month. It's from their latest EP The Code. The video has a storyline about time travel.





TWICE- Heart Shaker

And here is Heart Shaker by Twice. It's from the Christmas reissue of their debut album Twicetagram. The album has been repackaged as Merry & Happy and was released on 11th December.

I personally don't like it when the record companies re-release albums because you've bothered to buy the first one and now they've added extra songs on to it! (The only album I've ever got twice- no pun intended!- is Mariah Carey's Emancipation of Mimi). But it's much easier these days with iTunes and Amazon Music etc., where you can buy individual songs.

The Heart Shaker video was uploaded to YouTube on 11th Dec.





Update 22/12/17: I found a K-pop Christmas playlist on YouTube! Check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UC5-ZK_YGQI



Hope you enjoyed the post! Stay tuned for another Christmas themed post next Friday or Saturday. :)

25th Anniversary of Mariah Carey's Butterfly Album

My favourite singer Mariah Carey recently released a 25th anniversary edition of her 6th studio album Butterfly. The original album was released on 16th September 1997 and featured songs such as her hit single Honey, The Roof and My All. It was actually the first album I ever bought (on cassette tape, lol) and I still consider it one of my fave MC albums. :) Butterfly was the first album that Mariah had more control over and it is R'n'B, rather than the pop (and later pop/R'n'B) of her previous releases. It also has pop and hip hop influences. The expanded edition contain 8 extra tracks (the original standard edition has 12)- a duet version of Whenever You Call with Brian McKnight , a new take on The Roof featuring Brandy , live versions of Butterfly and My All, acapella versions of Fourth of July and Outside, an Amorphous Anniversary Club Mix of Butterfly (with DJ Amorphous ) and a remix of Honey (Another Taste of Honey David Morales Mix). I had previously heard the D...

New Unexpected

We're finally getting the new season of the reality TV series Unexpected in the UK! Season 3 was shown in the US last summer , and I wondered when we'd get it here. I don't have any online streaming services so thought I'd just watch clips on YouTube, lol. However it's now starting here in early March. Similar to the popular MTV franchise Teen Mom , Unexpected focuses on teen parents. The first series featured 3 couples expecting babies- Lily Bennett and her boyfriend James Kennedy who have daughter Aaliyah, now 2;  Mckayla Adkins and partner Caelan Morrison who have son Timothy, also known as Timmy (and now daughter Gracelynn , born in January 2019), and  Lexus Scheller and boyfriend Shayden Massey who have daughter Scarlett. Season 2 saw the departure of Lilly and the addition of 3 new pregnant girls and their partners- Laura Barron and her boyfriend (now husband) Tylor Stawmyor who have son Lucas (and have since had another baby , a 2nd son, who is named Leo), ...
