Math rock. So my birthday song for the year 2011 is f(x)’s NU ABO. I can’t think of a better song to mark this time in my life. The absolute best Kpop song i’ve come across in my short time with it. It’s untouchable. The fiercest, most intense, most cocky thing. Everything is on, even the parts that are usually so much in Kpop out of place, affectatious afterthoughts – the rapping, the singing showing off – those things put in so every member with their distinct style and contributions have their chance to shine.
So often the trend of putting everything in leads to disparate messes, leaving me thinking "This would be perfect if only…" That "if only" is always a wish for something to be left out. Not here. Everything is necessary and everything propels it unremittingly forward to perfection.
