New Music I'm Listening To - Week 1

I love to find new music. I have this unsatisfiable craving for music every day. I always need more! So I decided to make a weekly post about new songs I've been listening to! Most of these are songs that catch my eye (or ear) from the first time I play them. In other words, they're songs that I'm likely to listen to a lot more in the future! I'm hoping to do this every Friday. If you have a song that you would like me to check out, then just comment! It has to have been released within a week or two earlier. Remember, it's NEW music.

Okay, so first off, is an artist that I've just now discovered, and I think she's a great singer! She's Japanese and her name is Nishino Kana. This song is called "SAKURA, I love you?" (yes, there's supposed to be a question mark there) She wrote the lyrics to it herself, so I think that's cool! I enjoy singers who can write their own songs because it means that they will definitely be able to sing it with the right emotion. Anyway, check this out!

Next is a Korean band called Big Bang. If you listen to Kpop, there's no doubt that you've heard of these guys. If you haven't then you must live under a rock. Honestly, I used to not listen to their music. I knew who they were, but I didn't like them. I'd always had this thing against YG artists for some reason (except Gummy, I've always liked her). But then a friend showed me this episode of a show called Healing Camp and Big Bang was featured on that show and I really started to see their personalities and I decided to give them another chance. Their new song "Blue" is very laid back, but it's also very pretty. You have to listen to it a few times before it really starts to grow on you, but eventually I'm sure I'll love it! Oh, and did I mention that this video got 7,000,000+ views in just 4 days? A KPOP video got that many views! I mean, holy chiz!


Alright, now on to Wonder Girls' labelmates, miss A! Gosh, I can't believe these girls debuted in 2010! They're so freaking good! They've never put out a bad release EVER! Their new song is "Touch" and is very different than what most idol groups are singing right now. The melody is hauntingly beautiful! There were certain parts in the song that I thought didn't flow well, but then I watched them live and it sounded fine, so my guess is that the MV is just skipping slightly. I don't know if your ears can pick those spots up or not, but mine can! :D  YOU TOUCH MY HEART BABY!!!!! (touch touch)

That's all I have for you this week! Hopefully I'll be able to add some English songs next week. Good English songs just don't come out as often. Give me some recommendations, will you?
