YOU NEED TO LISTEN TO THIS.

NOW. No, I mean, right now – like right this very second. Just click on that little video that I’m posting down there and listen to the song. Your life will not be complete until you hear it. It’s ‘The Greatest Story All Over The World’.

Sooooo I love this song – I’ve only listened to it once but I love it already because it’s so moving. Is it not moving? Are you not being moved while listening to it? If you’re not, then listen to it again and again and again until you are successfully moved. But seriously, this is such a beautiful song – Yesung’s voice is so soft and soothing here and you really do get the sense of a story being told from the way that he’s singing – this is a duet by the way, between him and Lee Sejun – and this could possibly be my favourite thing that he’s ever done ever. And that’s only enhanced by the fact that this is a Christian song and that the proceeds from the sales go to charity and I mean, you have to be able to appreciate that at least, right? Honestly I didn’t even know that Yesung was a Christian until he released this but that’s very good, you know – I am one too and you should totally look into that (yeah, you, the person reading this) if you’re not. It’s not a bad way to be, imo. But I digress – so yes, check the song out – it’s beautiful and I am going to try to see if I can buy it from mnet.com or somewhere like that because it is for charity and all.

Anyway, I just wanted to share that – so enjoy!

Concerning F(x), IU, etc…

So I really like this song. I’ve had it on repeat for most of tonight.

Honestly when I heard the first teaser, I wasn’t impressed – I didn’t like the sound of it at all. But now that I’ve heard the entire thing, I think it’s pretty good. Pretty and fun and melodic and easy to follow, the dance looks interesting enough and most of all, it’s not just ‘catchy’ or overly repetitive like the last few hit songs from SME have been. Mind you, I liked those songs but you know that kind of thing gets old fast so this is a nice change. Here’s their new MV teaser for those of you who haven’t yet seen it – it looks nice enough, the car is really cute:

Yay~

So I’m just updating to let all you SHINee fans know that SHINee Subs is back on Youtube! Their new channel is called sfinee so make sure to subscribe if you haven’t and don’t forget to drop them a line and tell them thanks for coming back, okay?

For more subbed SHINee goodies, go to SHINeeSubs own streaming site as well as SHINee Forums for downloads.

That was all. Over and out!

Sharing!

Hola – sorry I’ve been MIA as of late but anyway, I just wanted to share this song I just heard. It’s by Ilac and ChaeRin from Brand New Day and it’s really bright and cheerful and perfect to get you in the mood for summer. It certainly cheered up my less than stellar day so here you go. Enjoy!

SHINeeversary Time!

So today, in honour of SHINee’s first anniversary, I’ll tell you a little story of my history with the group. I know I have a tendency to ramble though so I’ll try to keep things succinct. ^^

What I’m Listening To…

So while I work on Jonghyun’s birthday post – whoo, saengil chukhahae, my little 4D boy! – I’d like to share with you a song that I’m really feeling right now. It’s from Navi’s second single – the title song, ‘Heart Damage’ features Crown J but I really prefer the second song on the album entitled ‘Gireseo’ (On The Road) – it’s beautiful and her voice is so piercing and soulful here that it can’t help but make an impression.

I hope you enjoy it.

Good Ole Americana

So this is a little unusual for me but I decided to something different and recommend to you an American artist that I’m growing to be pretty fond of. She’s a new artist – new in the sense that she isn’t particularly well known as of yet in the States and she was only recently signed to a label – but she’s already released her first studio album, which I bought a few days ago – her name is Erin McCarley and her album, ‘Love Save The Empty’ is titled after one of the songs on the album.

edit: Oh, the official video for ‘Love Save The Empty’ was uploaded to Erin’s Youtube channel today and it’s also already on VH1’s Top 20 Countdown (number 18) so go vote for it, okay?

Just a Friendly Reminder!

Yo yo yo, all you SHINee fans out there. Just in case you didn’t know today is the deadline to submit your entry in SHINee Forums’s special Jonghyun birthday booklet – you just take or get a picture of a random object (not a picture of you or of SHINee or of Jonghyun) that reminds you of Bling and then you post that along with a short message explaining why you chose that item and wishing happy birthday and so on. It’s actually quite nice – people come up with some really interesting objects! – and I think this is the first time that they’ve done a booklet just for a specific member so you know it’ll be memorable.

Anyway, if you want to participate, this will take you to the official thread. If you’re a member, then just go to the first page, read the rules, then post and if you’re not a member, you’ll have to join first – but it’s totally worth it! SFI is the best and most organized place to get all your SHINee info, news, pictures, videos, etc. So go and participate! Quick!

XD I actually did mine on Tuesday – did not leave it to the last minute for once. Yay!

And this is why Jonghyun is awesome…

Those earrings that he’s pointing to are part of the last batch of gifts that SHINee Forums sent to the boys in their last SHINee project and while we saw Taeminnie wearing one of the hoodies that was sent, Jonghyun’s taking the ‘fan service’ (LOL) to another level by wearing these basically all the time these days and even showing them off back stage. So you see, these projects have results~ Now don’t you feel like taking part? Right now, we’re working on both Jonghyun’s birthday project and the SHINeeversary project – come on, it’s the boys’ first anniversary as a group – so you know it’s going to be really special. So join, join, join!
