Old Cat Lady Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 Looks like Jin did the Japanese show without any back track. The Astronaut sounds so beautiful. Running Wild doesn't sound quite as powerful as it has before. I haven't been able to find a full performance of it yet, but I'll Be There sounds amazing.

Old Cat Lady Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 Found a longer performance of I'll Be There. You can hear a backing track for this, but at least it's not loud. I imagine the backing track helps as a guide for the singer to stay on key. The Japanese crowd really deserve him - they're really into this Jin MC'd another one of his friends' weddings. They did the Super Tuna dance - saw a clip of it somewhere but, alas, I misplaced it According to this tweet, Jin's MC'd 10 of these. Yet he claims he doesn't have many friends - he must be comparing himself to his bandmates. I'd be exasperated if that many friends wanted me to MC their weddings.

Old Cat Lady Posted December 7 Share Posted December 7 RM takes the crown. He was also names as the best Album by a Korean artist from Rolling Stone, NME, and another major music magazine that I can't remember - Hypebeast(?). A bit of a backhanded compliment but both Indigo and RPWP were #1 "Kpop" albums of their respective years by Billboard. Happy by Jin was #22 on the list, which, again, I feel ambivalent about. Muse and Hope On the Street didn't make it at all, which is just an insult, but, to be fair, I haven't heard the other albums so I guess I can't really judge.

After having watched the RPWP documentary, I'm now certain that while Namjoon would chuckle at that result, it's absolutely the last thing he'd ever want to do in reality.

Also - too dangerous. I want him safe and happy in the studio and on stage, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Cat Lady Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 So far, no one seems to be recognizing my favorite song (Nuts) but excited to see RM continuing to get critical acclaim Jin's success in Japan is kind of incredible. I'm always excited to see the less popular members get support in at least some spheres and "Winter Ahead" made the Hot 100 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Cat Lady Posted December 10 Share Posted December 10 Even with the influx of Christmas songs, Jimin continues trucking along in the middle of the Hot 100 ETA: woops. I guess this was last week's Hot 100. Jimin is predicted for #49 this week with Mariah Carey already being declared #1 again. I don't hate it, but "All I Want For Christmas is You" is so overrated.

Agree on the way over rated Mariah Carey song- and I hear it way too often. Oddly, my least favorite perennial Christmas song (it literally makes me cringe) is Burl Ives - It's a Holly Jolly Christmas - and I heard it today in Seoul. Eee gads. And wondering what is on with TXT- I feel like it's nothing good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the opposit for me, my first thought really was "finally!" I don't care if it was planned before or if they scheduled it because they know Soobin needs more time and it's better to tackle the next comeback with all five. I'm just happy they get their first! break that deserves the title "break". Of course the long term break is a bit so-so, but as they call one week "break", I hope they mean at least a month.
