NCT version!
Xiaojun x Kun duet with a live band. The duet gives it two layers, and I love it.

Doyoung on King of Masked Singer


Doyoung’s voice is soft and smooth… gives a different texture to the song

Yook Sungjae singing to Gummy version! Doom can sing! HIs voice is really touches the heart :heart:

The original singer, Crush, but dueting with AKMU’s Suhyun! :heart_eyes::heart_eyes: I really, really love male/female duets. So beautiful.

Aww! How sweet of NCT to help him out! I swear he looks younger every year instead of older. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing. Nice to hear his live voice too. I was just listening tooEXOcover of Open Arms recently.They did such a nice job. I watched a live performance of the song by the original Journey too.ad forgotten how good a singer Steve Perry really was.

That blue track suit and that haircut with is head shape make him look like a five year old :joy: And then he did a v-live, where he “sang” Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You” and the Frozen medley exactly how I sing k-pop songs, just excluding the crazy stable notes and the general three-year-old aura he has :joy:

They make funny promises… NCT promised they would stick to each other and sing “Sticker” if they won. NCT DREAM agreed to carry each other :joy:

Well, morning is here, drizzling and gray out, but enough light to see the clouds hugging the mountains. My hubby would say, “Hunting season!”

Nah. I snatched that one off the web. Let me go grab the real view. BB

Ok.Taken through the front room window. I cut out the neighbors’ houses and telephone poles.

It is raining now. If I left the house and drove up the hill a bit you’d see a great view of this valley.

Oh! Just on a whatever- Hunch? I must have been hungry I did a search on Korean food Idaho Falls and THERE IS A FOOD TRUCK!

Called The PORKY KOREAN! :rofl: My kind of place! :rofl: :laughing: :sunglasses:

I’ll drive up there tomorrow if the weather is good. They don’t open if it’s rainy/snow weather. It’s a food truck, not a restaurant. It’s about 50 miles each way (80 kilometers) SO I want to make sure they are open before I drive up.

Tidbits from a Dinosaur: I just found an artifact in Goblin! Yes, I know it is a fantasy but even so! :smirk: They are standing on the hillside in Quebec at the graves. There is one headstone with no name, I didn’t pay attention the first time I saw that show but this time I paused when it tried to flash past. It has Gong Yoo’s picture and the death date of 1801!

PHOTOGRAPHY - Daguerreotypes weren’t invented until 1839! So how was a photograph of Gong Yoo obtained and put on that headstone in 1801? :nerd_face: :thinking: :rofl: (Yes, yes, I know this is a work of fiction made in 2016! :thinking: :smirk: :grin: But even so! It should be consistent with the time portrayed! )

Yea, in one of my previous lives, (Or I am really, really old!) I was into photography so I notice weird things like that.

Nah, I was into photography in High School. I was fascinated by the concept of capturing images and the science behind it. :nerd_face:

Okay, y’all… I wanted to talk about NCT’s Sticker (“oh please, NOT that song!”) and compare it to ATEEZ’ Deja Vu because it released four days before Sticker did.

Sticker won Music Bank after a close fight with Deja Vu. Sticker currently has 60M views while Deja Vu has 27M, less than half.
Now, NCT is more popular, but ATEEZ is really big, too. Personally, I listen to Deja Vu WAY more than Sticker. Deja Vu’s melody is really, really good. I can’t get tired of it.

But I have to admit, Sticker doesn’t hurt my ears anymore. With both MVs, I really like Deja Vu. But if you watch them live, NCT slay. The melody might not be to my taste, but there were absolutely no holes in the vocals and rap. The boys completely slayed with whatever the had. Haechan, Taeil and Doyoung’s vocals and ad-libs were really good. The rap was smooth, and the choreography had lots of jumping around, which they did well.

ATEEZ did an amazing job, but they struggled a little. The high note was wonderful, but one dragged it slightly longer than the other, so the note lost a little power. Overall, the quality was a little lower. But they’re still amazing.

@table122000 I found it! I found it! :joy::sweat_smile: When we were discussing live vocals, I just KNEW there was something I was missing!

ENCORE STAGES.

The winners HAVE to sing live with no backing vocals, only instrumental. You can’t totally rely on it either because they’re usually really tired after the entire show (I have NO idea how they have the energy to jump around… I guess it’s the adrenaline rush after the win :joy:). Also, the acoustics aren’t very good. But it still lets you hear their raw voices quite well in most of them.

Actually, these encore stages were the reason there was a lot of criticism of Twice. Their Alcohol Free encore stage was a disappointment for a lot of fans.

NCT’s Sticker - Doyoung and Taeil’s voices are still so stable!


Red Velvet

EXO - this is why I say Chen is one of the BEST vocals in the entire industry

The last time we saw them perform on a Music Bank stage :sob: And the last time we saw Chen smiling ahhhhh lemme go cry now

This is also why I say SM artists are vocal-focused.

I learned something new, Gas lighting, wow really interesting there!

just a question here, as for these young & older actors & actresses, scandles or not, are people looking for gods or saints!

to be sure our “American” actors & actresses has scandles in their lives and yeah could name a couple.
