I have had Last Angel by Koda Kumi featuring Tohoshinki and the two singles by AnyBand on repeat for the past 5 hours. It is kind of amazing how the members of DBSK sounds so much more awesome with a female singer that knows how to sing. Junsu and BoA together does this amazing thing where their two voices seem to melt into each other. And Last Angel is just so damn catchy, it is the perfect song to go jogging with.

perseid, I see what you mean by Forever Love, it is um, it is a good song, it shows off all their singing abilities (they have improved so very much) very well. However, there is just something about the tune of this song that makes it very generic and easily forgettable. I actually prefer Day Moon over it. All I know is that compared to Lovin' You and Proud the two singles seem a bit lacklustre.

Also, I present you AnyBand - the band that was specifically created for the sake of making the Samsung Anycall commercial. It features Junsu of DBSK, Bora (I don’t know much about her), BoA and Tablo of Epik High. It is over 9 minutes long, and if it was a movie I’d buying tickets for it right about now.

And this is why the Asian media (especially Korea and Japan) has marketing to perfection.

Mood: relaxed

Jin Bora is a 19-yr-old Korean pianist prodigy, mainly jazz-oriented who I believe will be taking up a music scholarship at Berkley soon.

...damn all these young, pretty talents. -__-

P.S. YES, I so love Junsu's parts in the Anyband songs!! He has a more mature sound to him when he sings with BoA. I have been playing the ad and the songs to death and death and death. XD

Marketing indeed - it boggles my mind that they're actually going to have a concert. Special guest singers Epik High and DBSK, naturally. XD And a third single called Daydream supposed to be coming out soon, wooh! XDXD

Jesus woman, go out and take a walk. You made THREE comments to one single entry, you hardly EVER make more than 1post, hell, you hardly ever reply to an post! WALK! Get some sun and try to be healthy.

But yes - complete agreement. I try not to think about their age because it hurts me, and I rather be in DENIAL about the success of them in comparison to me.

But Junsu is so very hot in this vid, it is interesting seeing him without the rest of DBSK, he seems much more mature here than when he did Timeless. Also, he's so much more mature when he's on his own. I can't remember who said it but someone said that when DBSK are not together they seem less, like they are not whole, and when they are together it is like this synergetic energy that's just amazing. I’m extremely curious about their future, their individual growth and the paths they choose will be very interesting, however, I also don’t want them to go their own ways! CONFLICTED!
