Hands Up!

Hei there. Don't be confused by the sudden change of username, it's still Azii. (kea ada aja yang baca blog ini XD)

There had been an error of some sort concerning the use of my Google account. It has something to do with a certain youtube account and a certain person, but let's not get into detail. The point being, from now on, I will be using this account to post in my blog. This is saddening, really, but I have no choice. Well, no. I have several other choices, but I find them too troublesome.

ANYWAY.
Here I am.
I chose Japanese as the system language for my time on blogger. Why? Because I think it will be good for practice. ^^

Well, on with the post!
I'm sure you guys (who on earth am I talking to? XD) have seen 2PM's latest song and Music Video: HANDS UP. Oh yeah, see the title of the post. I'm sure you saw this coming. xD

At first I did not quite like the Music Video or the song. Even though, I admit, the song is catchy and has a 98% chance of making the first-time listeners addicted to it, it would seem that I am included in that other 2% who did not become addicted to it. I was kinda surprised when I first heard the song. It was a different kind of genre from 2PM's previous songs that I've heard, e.g. I'll Be Back, Without U, etc (I'm not counting Fly To Seoul because that song is for tourism advertisement purposes). This song is upbeat and cheerful and all about fun, where as I'll Be Back and Without U is angst-filled and dark and gloomy. I don't know whether this change of genre is for the better or worse, but I know that I am glad they tried something new - or maybe this change isn't new? I'm not a HOTTEST after all, I just enjoy their music and I mostly only listen to their promotional songs. I'm not going to discuss about they guys' lines or voice or anything like that because I honestly don't pay much attention to that (though I pay attention to those kind of stuffs when it comes to my fandom e.g. Arashi, B2ST).

Now, about the Music Video. To be frank, I don't quite like it. Yes, it's fun, but it is also confusing. Well, to me it is. I mean, the video was fast-forwarding, pausing, playing, moving, shaking, blinking, fast-forwarding again, changing suddenly between scenes, zooming, panning, shaking, staying still, and all kinds off stuff. I guess that's as much as my poor eyes can take... I dunno bout you guys though. x__x But it is an interesting and, I quote, "edgy" Music Video. It also matches well with the beat of the song. But I'm no expert, so this is just blah blah XD
About the clothes and hairstyles and stuff - I have no complaints. Nichkhun certainly looked beastly in that vest (at least, I think it's a vest). I have nothing against Taecyeon's jagged hairdo - but I am interested in his and Junho's (was it Junho?) jacket. Everyone looked hot! Chansung included lol. I've never really liked his looks, but damn he looks good in this MV - not forgetting Junkay! He was absolutely stunning! And yeah, Wooyoung and Junho also looked smexy. ^^
As far as the dancing goes ... it's 2PM. Their dancing is lively, powerful, interesting, and so beastly. They are the beastly idols after all. ^^


Enough of my subjective rant. Enjoy the vid!



Turn on some blaring music
Everyone put your hands up and get your drinks up
Go crazy with the whole world
Everyone put your hands up and get your drinks up
Now, put your hands up, put your hands up put, put, put, put, put

Raise the volume until the speakers burst
and all together go crazy until you lose your minds
Shake your whole body and lose your minds

Together all night,
all the people who agree with me mansei,
until the end of tonight keep running
Giddy up! Giddy up! You know what I’m sayin’
this is an energy restoring tonic you hear with your ears
The catalyst that explodes the party, dancing all night under the lights,
They go together exactly, aren’t I right

Here we go here we go constantly running and
Right now it’s barely midnight, the sunrise is still far away
So lets have one more glass and start again

Before the sun rises absolutely do not cut off the music, DJ take care of tonight
“Oppa I can trust you OK?” Yes Sir, I won’t say I’m leaving first
Lets all have another glass together. One shot. Everyone lets go.

Don’t stop Tonight empty all thoughts and all have fun together
