Just Because I Like This Song

This is Brown Eyed Girls' Abracadabra, the performance version:



The main music video is a bit too racy for this blog, and was banned on Korean TV from what I heard. You can find it easily on Youtube and decide for yourself. In any case, the song and dance are pretty awesome. If you see PSY's video "Gentleman", you can see the same dance used. Ga-in from BEG also makes an appearance in that video. :)

Brown Eyed Girls new album, yay

I finally got the latest album, Black Box, from Brown Eyed Girls:

The album has both "Kill Bill" and "Recipe".  The inside photo book is nice too and has a lot of glossy photos of the ladies. You can see some of them on the Nega Network photo album too if curious.

The album itself has a lot of good hits. I've been enjoying it since yesterday.  I like the opening song, among others, and I'm thankful that unlike some other KPop albums I've bought in the past, it's not just a couple hit songs at the beginning or end, and a lot of other flat, boring ones.  BEG know how to make good songs.  :)

Definitely a nice addition to my small, but growing BEG album collection.

Welcome Back, Brown-Eyed Girls

Recently Brown Eyed Girls came back with a new album with two excellent songs: Recipe and Kill Bill. You can see both here on a recent episode of the Korean music show Inkigayo:


I was blown away by both songs.  They really rocked the stage.  Brown Eyed Girls are kind of a special phenomenon in KPop.  The members are in their early 30s but they're much hotter than younger KPop female artists, they sing really awesome, and unlike some other groups, they just keep putting out awesome albums. Here's the video for Kill Bill by the way:


I didn't think any other KPop group could put together such an awesome homage to the Kill Bill series of movies. In my personal list of artists, BEG always hovered in the top 3 or so, but after this, they shot to number 1 in my personal rankings.

Welcome back ladies, we missed you.
