This week's Music Monday will have you Striking Out with girls with Justing Bieber's Be Ma Girl
Oh God!
I mean Teen Top's Baby.
BANANA FUDGE!!
I mean Teen Top's Be Ma Girl
Ah!
It's been a loooooong time since we reviewed a Teen Top video
Last time we reviewed them was with No More Perfume on You
and we talked about how that was one of our least favorite kpop songs and videos OF ALL TIME,
due to the horrible message and stupid video plot glorifying cheatin
We were beginning to worry that Teen Top were a lost cause,
so YAY that this song and video are not terrible!
The message isn't despicable!
The video isn't disturbing!
The line distribution is kindof
more balanced!
This song is like a 360 degree turn in the opposite direction of No More Perfume
In "Be Ma Girl" they sing about being awkward and shy,
and humbly wanting to date a girl
They actually say
although I'm young and can't afford to buy you stuff,
I will give you all my love
Which make me think
Aren't they all Kpop idols?
They can't afford to buy...
their dates, something?
It's kinda weird
Now see
THESE are the kind of lyrics that match a band named Teen Top
…but…I'm pretty sure C.A.P is no longer going to be a teen in 3 months..
This band is called TEEN TOP
representing teens that are ...on...top...
Cap, though, was born November 4th, 1992,
which means that in less than three months he's going to be 20
No longer a tween or teen,
but a man
I imagine his birthday being one of both
happiness and great sadness
Surprise!!
Oh.guys! You shouldn't have
You guys are the best
Cool. You remember my birthday. Thanks so much!!
YAH! I'm 20 today
Hey.. hey.. But WAIT! I can be TwenTEEN!
You call security on me??
HEY !! HEY!! STAY AWAY FROM ME
You're NEXT, CHUNJI!
I really don’t have any big complaints about this music video
It included all the important things one needs to have to be considered a hip young band
Skateboarding? Check
Ridonkulous clothing? Check
So many accessories you could drown from the sheer weight if slipped into a shallow puddle? Check
Crazy blue hair? Check
WHat was that last thing you said?
Ohhhhh...Spudgy...
I didn’t see you there...
I ...said...crazy bluuubbebrrhiar ...blair .
really.
Crazy bluuubbbhahiir..
Is that what you really expect me to believe?
RUN FOR IT RICKY
RUN WHILE YOU STILL CAN!!!
He’s got stubby little legs, but man, can they pack a punch.
It’s just a good thing he didn’t see the last B-2-S-T video...
Now, the only complaint we have from this video,
and it’s a minor one, was during the bowling scene
Now, some of you might have drawn the comparison with Justin Bieber Cream “Baby”
which was also filmed in a bowling alley and involved breakdancing and general teen meriment,
HOWEVER, we noticed a striking difference between these two
See, in Justin Bieber’s video,
he bowls an easy strike and looks all happy,
but then the girl he’s after says,
oh yeah” and bowls a strike
In Teen Top’s video, however,
the boys are pretty good bowling strikes
and breakdancing in celebration for their awesome talent,
but when the girl tries to bowl, she strikes out with
a big fat gutter ball
Thus ends the comparison of male and female bowling skills in Teen Top’s video
I”ll tell you what Teen Top didn’t know...
WAHOOO! STTRRIKKKEEEE!!!AGAIN
Seungri: OMG. That was a great strike
But, don't you see? Isn’t that Teen Top over there?
oHMO! My Oppas!
You know what? I've gotta really great plan
Let’s get them to fall in love with us, by helping us how to bowling
I don't think that is going to work
Why?
Now for starters,
and also
And the cup you've got
And that
OK...Don't worry, I've got a plan
OH YEAH! What do you think of that?
REALLY?
Yah! World Owling Champion
Owling....
Yah, It's like I train owls and stuff
That's the best that you can come up with?
It's that or...Bowl Champion.
or the Bowing Champion
Owling is cooler
It's a conversation starter
Yes...Let's go come on
Clever Girl.....
[The Dance]
Now, I barely had to do any scripting for this part of music monday
because the info box had kindly informed me that:
uhhm.. I quote
“The intro has precise rhythms that one can associate with TEEN TOP's well-known exact choreography, the so-called,
"knife choreography"
Let's us pause here for a second
I didn't know that Teen Top's choreography was well-known to be "exact"
and known by Teen Top fans as Knife Choreography
I would personally call this “Donkey Kick choreography”,
which is the kind of thing you break out on the dance floor
when someone nasty keeps trying to dance with you
ayy girl....can I buy you
AGHHH!!!
And I'm not sure about you,
but I wouldn't look at grabbing the back of my head, touching my junk,
and thrusting both as an example of exact choreography
That's the kind of stuff Simon wants to do to make you feel uncomfortable
And aroused!!
Cue sign on Simon making everyone uncomfortable
And arounsed!
OOH HOW EXACT IS MY CHOREOGRAPHY FOR YOU, BABY?!
OOH YOU NASTIES ARE SO NAYUSTY
[The English]
As for the English of the song, I give this a
5 out of 5
Although it involves a lot of slang,
the English here is actually fine and rather than talk about the English of the lyrics,
I'd like to talk about something else here,
just for a second.
You know, we've been poking fun at the teenaged aspect of this video and band
but we didn't get a chance to say how we truly feel
See, I'm glad that they've continued their perfect collaboration with the composer Brave Brothers,
and how the song is filled with exciting sounds resembling a dance party,
presenting us club music in the style of Teen Top
Actually, wait.
No, that's not how I feel, because that would be pretty freaking ridiculous
That's just the info box for the video on YouTube tells me to feel
WHO THE HELL WRITES THIS STUFF?!?!?
Who do they think is going to reading that?
Can anyone actually read it without laughing?
Let me continue, but first,
let me channel my inner romantic poet:
"As the song nears the climax,
the music sounds that burst out like the excitement of a party
make us feel good
in a natural way."
Pause again
if something bursts out during a climax and makes you feel good in a natural way,
that's not a song
That's a can of soda!
That barely bursted out in a natural way at all
AND IT BURSTED IN MY FACE!!
That is what she said indeed..
[The Showdown]
Last week we asked you which audience felt faker,
B2ST in "Beautiful Night"
or 2PM in "Hands Up"
but then we did a mistake on Facebook and Pole
and asked which Fake Audience You Preferred.
So, we made a mistake...so we can't really properly announce a winner
We didn't word it properly
So..it's not really fair..
So you know, the truth is...both are winner in our hearts
For this week's showdown,
we are going to do something that we never done it before
a Kpop artist vs a American artist
which teenage bowling video do you prefer?
Teen Top’s “Be Ma Girl”
or Justing Biber's "Be Ma Baby"
OMG!!!WHO WILL WIN?
Leave your votes in the comments or in our Facebook pole
and we will announce the winner next week
Also if there is a video, you want us to review for next week's Music Monday

NU:EST fans!! Is this the time, that you're finally getting reviewed?
