Weekly Music Video

Today's video is Perfume by NCT DOJAEJUNG. They are the 5th and newest sub-unit of Korean boy band NCT. The full group had 23 members at one time but currently consists of 20. The other 4 sub-units are NCT U, NCT 127, NCT Dream and WayV (Chinese unit). Two more were supposed to debut (NCT Hollywood and NCT Tokyo) but there have been no further updates on them so far. 

NCT DOJAEJUNG are more of an R'n'B group than the other units. There are 3 members- Doyoung (real name Kim Dong-young), Jaehyun (Jeong Jae-hyun/Yun-o) and Jungwoo (Kim Jung Woo). Their name comes from the main band name (NCT stands for "Neo Culture Technology") and the first initials of the members.* 

The group was formed in early 2022 and made their official debut in April this year, with the release of their debut mini album Perfume and the title track.

Perfume is an R'n'B electropop song about wanting to leave your scent on a loved one so you're not forgotten. Both album and single were released on 17th April. Click "Subtitles/closed captions on YouTube for English subtitles! :)

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),
