Genre/short comment: A slow, sad song with meaningful lyrics. Genre/short comment: Fast, energizing electro-kpop with addictive rap. Genre/short comment: An “edgy” pop song with good lyrics, an amazing beat, and an addictive bass beat. Genre/short comment: An upbeat, summery song with a minimal backing track, never trust a k-pop fan who doesn’t know this song. Genre/short comment: (The acoustic version is superior), a slow but not sad song with great vocals.

The verse after all the lalala includes a bit of rap too, so if you’re interested in that, there’s some of that. then into the chorus, it sounded a bit like a cheerleader joined the squad, and it turned from an acoustic romance song to a bit of an upbeat schoolgirl song. The lyrics are pretty encouraging, and it sounds like a “cool kid” songĪt the start (and the first verse), it sounded a bit like a female Korean version of an Ed Sheeran song. The overall beat is pretty slow, but it does contain some “rap”. This somehow manages to remind me of multiple different songs. I can imagine it being some Korean romance show’s intro, or a romance movie’s credit scene song. Soft, romantic, sweet, doesn’t really have a climax, great if you want to relax a bit.

Hopefully, we provide a few new songs that peak your interest. We’ve also listened to some songs recommended by other people. Thus, Alvin and I (Amy) decided to put together song playlists for each other to rate so we could find new songs outside of our comfort zone, while possibly also seeing the different sides of our personalities that our music tastes reflect. Some also say music taste can reflect personality. However, finding enjoyable songs and discovering a personal niche in music can be a gruelling chore because everyone’s tastes differ. Watching or following singers and performers is also a way to stay entertained during quarantine. For some it’s just a way to relieve boredom, while others connect and find deep meaning in lyrics and melodies. Although this may not always be the case, music can be great for mood, energy, and stress. Apparently, music helps improve memory and cognitive function.
