What are you listening to?

Not sure if you know any yet, but here goes:

Gackt - Brilliant musician who first became famous as singer of the band Malice Mizer in the late '90’s and later started a great solo career. His very first band was called Cains:Feel, but they broke up after only a demo. However, as a solo artist he is still around.

WoW! Love This! 정말 좋은! So many idols in this one. Ateez, Bibi, SuperJunior (I see Songwa there. :sunglasses:) Thanks for this. This one wasn’t in my feed. I like that little lion dog critters’ laughter at the beginning.

This guy came up on my Spotify feed last night. Such a great voice! And the sound of his music is so different! Jazz? R & B?, Trot? (Yes/No?) with very distinctive elements of Korean traditional music in it. (Must be Indie then) I am not sure what genre his music is but I really like it! :sunglasses:

He is most definitely NOT an idol. He mainly stands or sits and sings while moving his arms but in one MV he suddenly galloped around the stage. :open_mouth::smile: (No IDOL dance moves here guys. :grin: )

Spotify has type-cast me already based on my music choices. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: I already get English and Spanish commercials on Spotify - Egglands mejor, mejor nutrición, mejor sabor. :face_with_hand_over_mouth:- Just waiting for Korean commercials now. :rofl:

YouTube now refuses to serve me ads in any form except K-pop music videos, reality/variety shows and other Korean language ads (Grammarly is the only exception :roll_eyes:) I don’t know whether I’m watching an ad or the actual video :joy:

YouTube likes to serve me the ‘emu with it’s head in the sand’ commercials. Liberty Mutual. :joy:
