1. (–) CNBlue – Love *** 3 WEEKS NO. 1 ***
Score: 926
Genre: Rock

Music: SEIKOZI / Lyrics: Han Sung Ho
Album: CNBlue 2nd mini-album “Blue Love” Track 1
Comment: CNBlue remains No. 1 with “Love” for the third straight week. Being the top rookie group in 2010, CNBlue had hyped up the music scene with their single, “Loner” earlier this year has returned with their second mini album. Their songs are upgraded alternative rock based ballads with a hint of rap, showcasing their full potential as a band.

2. (–) SS501 – Love Ya

Genre: Pop / Dance

Music: Steven Lee / Lyrics: Lee Seung Je
Album: SS501 mini-album “Destination” Track 2
Comment: SS501’s “Love Ya” remains at No. 2 this week. After their mini album last September [REBIRTH], SS501 is recognized for [Love Like This],[WASTELAND],[Just One Day]is back with new mini-album (DESTINATION). SS501 worked on this album for 3 months after finishing their Asia Tour. This album worked as a world project and even the jacket cuts are gaining attention. American Producer Steven Lee who worked with REBIRTH (famous for global gold disks) is back for another run and this album is quite universal with a combination of American, European and and Korean sounds. This album can be recognized and differentiated from other groups for less electronic sounds but more piano, lived based to express SS501’s sincere emotions. The title song LOVE YA is produced by Steven Lee and rings out with the harmony of the orchestra and piano. This allows SS501’s powerful but sincerity to be expressed.

3. (–) 4minute – Huh

My Current Playlist

Hai hai..

List berikut ini lagu-lagu yang masih bertengger di playlist MP3 player saya :

1. 행복하길 바래 – 임형주 . Lagu ini tuh OST Sassy Girl Chun Hyang yang paling saya suka dan dengernya ga pernah bosen. Lagunya enaaaak banget didenger walopun liriknya sedih. Suara penyanyinya yang dalem (hampir mirip ma Park Hyo Shin) bikin ga bosen dengerinnya. Yups, sampe sekarang masih jadi penghuni setia playlist saya.
2. Love Sick – Gilmi ft. Bobby Kim. Hmm.. Yang mengasyikkan dari lagu ini adalah, pada intronya terdengar suara solo Bobby Kim trus dilanjutkan ma rap-nya Gilmi. Asli lagu ini keren banget. Sampe sekarang belum bosen. Perpaduan rap dan nyanyiannya keren walopun liriknya sedih. Intro lagu ini sempet saya jadikan nada SMS di hape, karena liriknya bagus “사랑해, 너를 사랑해, 뜨겁던 한마디…”^^. Kalo mendengarkan lagu ini dengan sungguh-sungguh (maksudnya emang cuma dengerin lagu aja tanpa aktivitas lain), bikin memori kembali ke masa-masa saya diklat 4 bulan.
3. 외톨이야 – CN Blue. Cuma satu kata untuk lagu ini : W.O.W !! Mantabh deh pas dengerin untuk pertama kali. Beatnya asyik banget kontras ma liriknya yang sedih. Mana ada lagu judulnya “I’m A Loner” tapi pake beat cepat. Mungkin untuk menghibur diri biar ga kesepian, hehehe. Intro lagu ini juga sempet saya jadiin nada SMS. Tapi.. karena cukup berisik dan dirasa mengganggu, akhirnya cuma bertahan sebentar saja.
4. 씨야 (Seeya)- 그놈 목소리 (His Voice). Saya pertama kali denger lagunya Seeya itu waktu nonton drama East of Eden. Lagu OSTnya bergenre ballad dan mendayu-dayu. Pas denger lagu ini, langsung tersepona gara-gara lagu ini berirama cepat dan ada campuran nada ajeb-ajeb. Wowow… asik buat dance !
5. 추억은 사랑을 닮아 -박효신. This song is one of my fav song from Park Hyo Shin. Bergenre pop ballad yang memang ciri khasnya, tapi ada yang beda dengan lagu-lagu PHS yang pernah saya denger.
