JITTER DOLL - Vocaloid PV

There are absolutely loads of Vocaloid songs and PVs, but I'd like to introduce you to a really good one - JITTER DOLL!

It is a really upbeat song with a PV that is quite down-scale - but attracted me as of its complexity...and of course because it was catchy. There are multiple Vocaloids who have covered this song, all who have done so incredibly well, my favourite being Gakupo V3's version.

English Lyrics:

Gazing at a droplet when the rain recedes,

The right eye connects to a power adapter,

Disorder, disorder,  With this temperature,

Everything seems to melt,

Go, go, With this hologram,

To a world filled with melancholy,

And I am manipulated, manipulated,
What can you see in that world,

The abnormal level of subconscious noise,
Humans, yes, still call this love,
There is no one who has not been granted with love, 

In this world of love and being loved,

Install the repeating history, 

And a whitish blue flash of thunder drones,
Connect, connect,  With this cord to a world filled with conflicts,
Dye, dye,  With a parasite ,

Into the bloodstream,

And what can you see, what can you see,
A flash of light breaking the sky,

The mad, uncertain power source,
Humans, yes, still call this life,
There is no one who anguish in tears, 

In this world of protecting and stealing lives,
Believe...

A trace of miracle in the clearing sky,
A trace of heartbeat in the blooming puddle,
Wake up, wake up,
The rusting gears start to move,
Connect...

Those who hold life,
Humans, yes, still call them humans,
There is no one who anguish in tears, 

In this world of protecting and killing people,

The abnormal level of subconscious noise,
Humans, yes, still call this God,
There is no one who bemoan with a withered voice,

In a world that can be salvaged while believing in God,
Believe...

Japanese Lyrics: JITTER DOLL Romaji Lyrics

Obviously, I also mentioned the different versions of this song. I'll post them below. Please take a listen :)

Cover: Kagamine Len

I found this cover really good, as it was clearer than most but still quite deep. It also has the full PV attached.

Cover: Kamui Gakupo V3 Native

This one is my favourite. Although his voice is not as loud compared to the music, his tone really suits the song, being is all deep and husky.

Cover: UTAUloid's Ritsu Namine

This is one of the most popular covers of the song. UTAUloid is a really hard program to get voices spot on, but the person who created this used the mascot's voice in a lower octave - making it (in my opinion) one of the best UTAUloid covers made. By the way, before anyone asks - Ritsu is in fact a guy who dresses as a female...

So, now they're all down...which one is your favourite? I know there is tough competition, but I suppose everyone will have their fave :)

Marshmallow by IU

 
Although this song was release quite a while ago, it's my new current addiction. Charming, sweet and upbeat, I adore it!


This is my type of Music Video, as it is an addicting song, without anything aimed at girls that's suggestive (they should save it for the guys...). Here is the video on YouTube:

Korean Lyrics: Marshmallow Romaji Lyrics

English Lyrics: 

It's so soft, soft, soft, soft,

You're special,
And perfect. You've been analysed and compared,
And you're different from the others (definitely boy~),

I am wretched,
And insufficient,
Oh silly me,
Am I staring at you again?

Why am I doing this?

 While thinking about you,
La La Oh La,
  I could fly to the sky,

What should I do? You are walking towards me,
Then all I hear is "blah, blah",
  I can't hear any of your words,

The time goes tic-tock tic-tock.. Then it stops!

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
It's so sweet...

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
Could this be love?

It's so soft, soft, soft,
It's just so soft, 

Girl girl, baby girl,

 Clap, Clap and let it go!
Plump like a jelly,
Soft like a cookie,
Boy boy, baby boy boy, (It's a marshmallow!)

I'm shy,
And worrisome,

When I think about you,
my face turns red.

Why am I doing this? 

While thinking about you,
La La Oh La
  I could fly to the sky,

What should I do? 

You're walking towards me, (say what?)
Then you ask for a date, (oh gosh!)
I'm addicted to your voice,
Everyone, Shhh! So I can hear!

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
It's so sweet,

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
Could this be love?

It's so soft, soft, soft,
It's just so soft,
Girl girl, baby girl,

 Clap Clap and let it go!
Plump like a jelly,
Soft like a cookie,
Boy boy, baby boy boy,

I must've slept,
When I opened my eyes,
Everything was gone like a dream,
I'm gonna sleep so I can meet you again...

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
It's so sweet,

Marshmallow!
Marshmallow!
Could this be love?

It's so soft, soft, soft,
It's just so soft,
Girl girl, baby girl, 

Clap Clap and let it go!
Plump like a jelly,

Soft like a cookie,

Boy boy, baby boy boy!

IU on a Rocking Horse

I absolutely adore this music video! The giant Marshmallow man is ever so cute...you just want to go up to it and squish it <3 My only problem is that there isn't enough pictures of it on the internet... I only found a couple of icons in Google...boo... I hope IU creates many more songs like this, because she is really unique to other artists who just try to produce the best dance track they can.

But trying to ignore my super fan girl outburst, what does everyone else of IU's video? What other tracks of hers do you like?  Opinions?

'Troublemaker' - Sung by Troublemaker

Recently come across a K-Pop music Video on YouTube, that is apparently very popular (but I'd never seen it before in my life...)

Despite this, I thought Troublemakers self named music video was rather enticing. Here is the video on YouTube:

Sung by: HyunA (from 4Minutes) and  Jan Hyun Seung (from BEAST)
Release Date: 1st December 2011
Album: Trouble Maker (EP) Mini Album
Genre: K-Pop, Dance
Mp3 Download: 4Shared
Featured in: Dream High Drama, Kahi Drama
Korean Lyrics: http://www.musicelyrics.com/hyuna-hyunseung-trouble-maker-lyrics/
English Lyrics:

1!2!3!

When I see your eyes, I’m a trouble maker

When I stand next to you, I’m a trouble maker

Little bit more more more

As I go more more more

Now I can’t help my own heart

So you can’t forget me, I keep standing in front of you again

Your heart, so I can’t shake it and get out of it

I steal your lips again and run far away

I’m a Trou a a a ble! Trouble! Trou! Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

I’m going to bite your heart and run away like a cat

You’re going to keep getting ruffled, come up in front of me and let your anger out

My sexy walk will arouse inside your head

My inwardly skinship, your eyes are saying “I can’t take it any longer, I’m going to die”

As it continues I fall in deeper, the more I know, I’m liking you more baby

I think I’m drunk with the thoughts of you lady

I never never never stop!

So you can’t forget me, I keep standing in front of you again

Your heart, so I can’t shake it and get out of it

I steal your lips again and run far away

I’m a Trou a a a ble! Trouble! Trou! Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

How would I be able to contain you inside my heart (Trouble Maker)

Now I’m just going to go with how I feel

I never never stop!

I can’t stop

So you can’t forget me, I keep standing in front of you again

Your heart, so I can’t shake it and get out of it

I steal your lips again and run far away

I’m a Trou a a a ble! Trouble! Trou! Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

Trouble Maker!

My opinions on the music video are quite both sided. I find the song is greatly catchy, but the video concentrates too much on HyunA's body (mainly her a***), which I don't really want a view of, and there isn't enough views of Hyun Seung, which is the body I really want to look at (lol). The music though is why I like this, as the song is nice and upbeat, so is quite addicting when you get into it.

But despite the endless views of HyunA's butt, do you guys like the video? What are your opinions?

TRENDING - PSY's Gangnam Style

Top of the charts in Korea and the UK. A trend for cheesy, but colourful song 'Gangnam Style' has swept the globe. 

For those of you don't know, 'Gangnam Style' is a single released by Southern Korean rapper PSY, released on July 12th 2012. The music video has been viewed over 447 million times on YouTube, and is currently thriving still at the top of our charts.

In my opinion, Gangnam style is an average song about a guy who fancies a girl who likes coffee. Nothing special about the lyrics, but it does have a good beat and an entertaining music video. I wouldn't really recommend Gangnam style to most, however, as I find PSY has quite a plain voice, and if you don't watch the video along with the song, it can actually be quite boring.
So why is Gangnam style appearing across the world? Most likely as the music video is funny, and is brimming with 'summery' feelings.

Here are the lyrics to 'Gangnam Style', for those who don't know them already:

Oppa is Gangnam style
Gangnam style

A girl who is warm and humanle during the day
A classy girl who know how to enjoy the freedom of a cup of coffee
A girl whose heart gets hotter when night comes
A girl with that kind of twist

I’m a guy
A guy who is as warm as you during the day
A guy who one-shots his coffee before it even cools down
A guy whose heart bursts when night comes
That kind of guy

Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Now let’s go until the end

Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style

Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh

A girl who looks quiet but plays when she plays
A girl who puts her hair down when the right time comes
A girl who covers herself but is more sexy than a girl who bares it all
A sensable girl like that

I’m a guy
A guy who seems calm but plays when he plays
A guy who goes completely crazy when the right time comes
A guy who has bulging ideas rather than muscles
That kind of guy

Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Beautiful, loveable
Yes you, hey, yes you, hey
Now let’s go until the end

Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style, Gangnam style
Oppa is Gangnam style

Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh

On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two
On top of the running man is the flying man, baby baby
I’m a man who knows a thing or two

You know what I’m saying
Oppa is Gangnam style

Eh- Sexy Lady, Oppa is Gangnam style
Eh- Sexy Lady oh oh oh oh

So can 'Gangnam Style' strike a trend in the popularity of K-Pop? I believe, yes. Not only has viewing on K-Pop music videos on YouTube significantly rose since then, but K-pop is already popular among most music lovers. This is a way of spreading knowledge on K-Pop music, although may cause a little ignorance from people who dislike the humour of the video.
But anyway, this isn't probably why you've clicked onto this topic, this is what you really want to see...
