ok so i'm excited to know what this sounds like !!!!!!!!! such a shame they haven't written anything in it but oh well :-) fuck sm

  • peek-a-boo
    • i looove this instrumental so much, it's got such a halloween vibe
    • wendy's adlibs are literally so good, i love her voice
    • this is such a bop and it's so catchy, bless this title track, it's the only i like the most from the ones they've releasesd this year
    • production is so nice as usual, and i really like the bass
    • vocals on point as usual, red velvet doesn't disapoint
    • the lyrics are kinda tsundere-y but it's alright what can you expect from a title track
    • (edit: irene fucking that outro up it's my favourite part honestly i could never get tired of this song)
  • look
    • i'm scared this will be a ballad
    • it wasn't a ballad lmao it was lowkey slow though
    • v v 80s, i didn't think they'd go for this vibe, f(x) would kinda suit this sound beter, not that they don't suit it
    • it's a solid track but not my favourite kind of sound
    • i really liked the verse after the first chorus, the transition was smooth and the bass sounded nice
    • production again !!!! striking it !!!
    • (edit: the transition between the second chorus and the bridge and the part after the bridge are SO nice i like those sections a lot)
    • (edit 2: this song's grown on me i like it a lot)
  • i just(sus)
    • ooooh boy i loved this one so much
    • the lyrics !!!! so damn !!! mysterious !!!
    • production once again this one is so pretty i wasn't really getting into it at first but oh my god that chorus sealed the deal (edit: it was lowkey all over the place but nah. just fuck hitchhiker i can't stand him)
    • the instrumental had me lowkey grooving
    • THEIR VOICES how do they do it it's so pretty this can't be a real song
    • it kinda had the right emotion??? i don't know how to explain it i just loved it so much
    • and also the fact that it doesn't have the typical structure of a pop song BLESS that helps a lot when conveying the emotions
    • (edit: the intro is so liberating ?? idek what i'm saying but yes)
    • (edit 2: seulgi and wendy were doing the most for me in this song tbh bless this the roduction is exquisite their voices are angelic and the composition is so chill and nice)
  • kingdom come
    • instrumental and production were playing a lot, though i didn't like it when it faded out in the end why do you do this to me :-(
    • lyrics were v v hopeless, love ain't worth it y'all
    • her voices once again they delivered amazing vocals and ad-libs, they played a lot on this one
    • the instrumental lowkey had that tapping vibe that i would expect on war chants ??? i don't even know what i'm saying
    • i liked it a lot though
    • i don't know where this album is going
    • (edit: this song is a whole religious experience. once again, wendy, stop ruining my life)
    • (edit 2: the bridge of this with that harmony uhh we eating good today)
  • my second date
    • why does this have such a shitty title already
    • this song is a tragic mess
    • it's so catchy though ugh
    • lyrics are like the worst thing they've ever made them sing why are they like this they're grown ups now
    • instrumental was lowkey basic, they just played a little bit with the production
    • the raps and the bridge were lit tho
  • attaboy
    • not as tragic as my second date but only because the bridge saved it, wendy and joy were doing the most
    • lowkey gave me "freay"" by hyuna vibes i don't know how to deal with it
    • lyrics were meh
    • instrumental was meh but the bridge part was Nice
    • production did something on the pre-chorus and it's weird i'm not sure i like it
    • (edit: the intro is lit i wish it was like that the whole song)
    • (edit 2: it's kinda annoying but it's better than my second date lmao)
  • perfect 10
    • VOCALS were served i love this vibe they went all out
    • what is up with wendy and her english sentences in the middle of songs i can't deal with this
    • the instrumental was so pretty and smooth highkey wish this was the vibe of the whole album
    • the lyrics were so sexy YASSSSS i loved them
    • production was laid back and chill yet they played with the "ten"s a lot and i liked that (edit: the tens reminded me of the chorus of oh wonder's "high on humans" y'all should know why)
    • probs my fave with i just up until now
    • why does it have such a shitty title though sigh
    • (edit: the production was so smoth and seemless and the transition are so nice definitely my second favourite of the album)
  • about love
    • it lowkey has that velvet side but not completely
    • i really liked the instrumental 'cause it's very laid back and old school (edit: it kinda reminds me of bts's "outro: her" because it's kinda the same sound)
    • the lyrics were meh it's not like perfect 10 these are just ugh
    • production was nice but i feel like this song doesn't stand out at all
    • vocals were nice as usual
  • moonlight melody
    • HIGHKEY EXCITED BECAUSE WHO LOVES ME THE MOON OH YES I DO !!!
    • the piano sounds so nice the instrumental lowkey reminded me of 1000 by jonghyun because of the strings but Also love is so nice ??? for some reason ??? maybe the piano fading out in the end
    • their voices are so pretty, they all can sing and they do it so beautifully
    • nice one to close the album it's like listening to hear the sea all over again
    • not enough moon refences on the lyrics but they were fine
    • production was Really Nice
    • (edit: the rhythm in this reminds me of exo's "stronger" someone needs to do a mash-up of the songs they would go really well together)

i kinda wanna take some of these and just say it's a whole velvet side album but tragically it's not sigh

  • production: the whole vibe of this was lowkey experimental and each song was really different from the others so i'm really puzzled. they all sounded good but there were some that were obviously beter than other ones.
    • fav production: i just and peek-a-boo
  • lyrics: it really makes me sad that they won't let them write this shit i'm sure they have a lot of potential !!! just let them sm !!!! but the lyrics of this were really nice, props to the writers !!!
    • fav lyrics: i just because they have that story-telling vibe i adore
  • compositions/instrumentals: most of these are bops so yeah they nailed it with these instrumentals. some sections were nicer than others but overall i can listen to the whole thing and bop to it !!!
    • fav composition/instrumental: kingdom come and perfect 10
  • vocals: is there anything red velvet cant do with their voices i mean they sound like angels and they complement each other so so so well !!! they never dissapoint !!!
    • fav vocals: perfect 10 and kingdom come
