A. LÉON - Pink

Never heard of Leon, this was pleasant though.

 

B.  Betty Who - All This Woman 

Probably the worst Betty song I've heard, it's boring, she's usually more fun.

 

C. Red Velvet - In & Out

A cute bop, I don't even listen to kpop but I enjoyed this.

 

D. Miley Cyrus - Unholy

This song just went nowhere for me.

 

E. Dido - Hell After This

Dido's old albums are great and this actually isn't too bad.

 

F. Beyoncé - Crazy In Love (Homecoming Live)

It's Beyonce singing a classic, so yeah.

 

G. Céline Dion - The Hard Way

Yas vocals, Celine is a legend, she'll probably be ranked low b/c Pinkbox stans her.

 

H. Weyes Blood - Wild Time

It's pretty but not one of my faves, plus was just too long. 

 

I. Weyes Blood - A Lot's Gonna Change

Very lovely. I've never listened to her before, might check her out.  

 

J. Kerli - Legends

Kerli's voice just annoys me and the lyrics are kinda cringe

 

K. Self Esteem - I'm Shy

The chorus vocals sound like that wavy voice filter people use for comic effect. 590 views, how did you discover her, is she your friend, is she you?
 

L. Billie Eilish - my strange addiction

I love The Office, so it's a yes from me.

 

M. Sigrid - Never Mine

Wow this is great, pop perfection tbh

 

N. Miley Cyrus - The Most

This is better than the other Miley song at least :eli:

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь

tbh already forgot what it sounds like but i do remember there were some nice vocal moments

 

everglow - moon

i'm so terribly forgetful cause i also forgot what this sounds like :deadbanana: but i remember enjoying it so there's that 

 

p!nk - hey why

her music is very much geared towards middle aged white ladies and i don't fall in that demo so this doesn't appeal to me the slightest. also the album cover :rip:

 

tove lo - stay over

"one of the best songs on sunshine kitty yup" -touch it

 

wjsn - you got

i liked this a lot! i've been meaning to get into them for quite some time cause of all the praise i see and this motivated me to get with it already

 

red velvet - lp

the most interesting gg ever like what's more to say :worship:

 

vertite - body in my bed

cute song, like the lyrics a lot

 

tove lo - mateo 

the lyrics and the pain in her voice... ugh WHO'S doing it like her, quickly?

 

yeule - an angel held me like a child

this is so ethereal and gorgeous :jonny5:made me download her album immediately

 

kelsey lu - poor fake

this is beyond beautiful oh wow :jonny2: just like yeule, i downloaded her album as soon as i finished this track and i looked her up and she's a cellist? our poor faves 

 

billie eilish - i love you

very pretty vocals and i feel like i would've liked the lyrics had i paid attention lol i specifically love the melody line that sounds like a part of hallelujah

 

gfriend - wish

i don't like this. they really fell off, huh?

 

sigrid - basic

exactly what the title says. we love foreshadowing :-*

 

twice - trick it

love foolish is on the same album and you go with this? cute nonetheless

 

turnover - number on the gate

too atmospheric but not the worst on this list

a. Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь 

Kind of interesting?  It's a bit ambient and spacey which is cool.  I feel like it isn't something i'd listen to again, but I appreciate this game already showing me songs that I would never have known about otherwise.

 

b. Everglow - Moon

They're really underrated but fairly consistent!  I like this track a lot,  my favourite non-single of theirs.

 

c. P!nk -  (Hey Why) Miss You Sometime

Now I love me some artistic autotune, and honestly this song didn't feel very P!nk-like so I was kind of intrigued.  However there were a few parts to it I didn't like.  That being said I'm glad this was sent because I did not think P!nk would do a song like this ff.

 

d. Tove Lo - Stay Over

Confession: i've only heard Tove Lo's debut album.  

This isn't too bad though!  The chorus was kind of strange to me and it took me a few tries to get it.

 

e. WJSN - You Got

I find them to be almost comparable to Red Velvet in terms of styles they try out.  I like the cosmic/dreamlike qualities they always have in their songs.

 

f. Red Velvet - LP

They deserve to be recognized as ARTISTS of the decade tbh.  Love this style.

 

g. VÉRITÉ - body in my bed

Okay come through recommendations?  This is really dreamy and immersive.  I love the vibe.

 

h. Tove Lo - Mateo

I think I like this one more than the other Tove Lo song.  It has a nostalgic feel for me for some reason.

 

i. Yeule - An Angel Held Me Like A Child

:shook:

This is peak dream pop.  Let me look this up further.

 

j. Kelsey Lu - Poor Fake

The amount of dreamy songs that have been sent in this group - it's going to be hard to rank!

 

k. Billie Eilish - i love you

I do like this song a lot, in fact I like the whole album, but I have to be honest it's not my favourite.  I do like Billie's ballads though.

 

l. GFRIEND - Wish

Despite being a really big Kpop fan I didn't give GFriend a ton of attention in 2019.  This is a fun song though.

 

m. Sigrid - basic

I'm not a huge fan of her voice and it feels a bit ... generic? Or idk something is kind of off here.

 

n. Twice - Trick It

A fun song, I liked what they released this year.

 

o. Turnover - Number On The Gate

Male vocals?  Just kidding, this is actually pretty cool but repetitive

 

Posted

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь

...I have no clue what this language is, but it sounds interesting production-wise. Only complaint really is that the build-up was very weak, and I thought there'd be more.

 

everglow - moon

Honestly was expecting to hate it but it really was nice, even if I didn't know what they were saying.

 

p!nk - hey why

This would've been better without auto-tune honestly, but maybe that was the point? Otherwise, the song was solid. There are definitely better Pink songs though, overall.

 

tove lo - stay over

I meant to listen to the album a while ago but never got to it, so I'm glad that I heard this because it's very good.

 

wjsn - you got

Kinda cheesy but not bad? I guess my main criticism is that it just sounds dated/like a throwback but not in a good way.

 

red velvet - lp

I'm definitely listening to some Nintendo game here, right? RIGHT?!

 

vérité - body in my bed

When she got into her upper register, the song really opened up nicely.

 

tove lo - mateo 

Digging it a ton! Is it stronger than "Stay Over" though...not for me, but they're both good.

 

yeule - an angel held me like a child

In a weird but good way, the production kinda reminds me of a Coldplay song that I can't put my finger on at all lol. I wish I heard her voice though because it didn't feel present. 

 

kelsey lu - poor fake

It's not bad but not my vibe at all. The last minute is pretty good though.

 

billie eilish - i love you

I really, really wanted it to go somewhere greater because there wasn't that much variation vocally. Like it's not bad by any means, just not as great.

 

gfriend - wish

Ehhhhhhhhhh, it's weak. Also, so many of these KPOP songs are blending in with each other lmfao.

 

sigrid - basic

Basic as a word is jarring, but this song is anything but, so it's a f*** yes from me.

 

twice - trick it

Why does this girl group have 9 members? Also, this isn't bad, but like, all these songs are becoming sooooooo formulaic as it goes on. It does stack up against the other KPOP songs though.

 

turnover - number on the gate

Dug it. Very nice, very chill, but should there have been a little more dynamics? Probably.

some of these are really good, saving to my music!

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee – деньночь

i can see this being played in some sort of thriller movie, in a club full of strobe lights or something.  it’s decent tho

 

Everglow – Moon

the kpop songs commence. anyway, this is cute! 

 

P!nk -  (Hey Why) Miss You Sometime

this album was so boring tbh. i didn’t need to hear this song again

 

Tove Lo – Stay Over

it’s not bad, but it was one my least favorites from the album

 

WJSN – You Got

the way the rap-ish parts in these songs always kill it for me…

 

Red Velvet – LP

nnn, it also reminded me of a video game. this one was boring, sorry.

 

VÉRITÉ – body in my bed

i didn’t pay this one much mind when i listened to the album, but i’m not sure why!

 

Tove Lo – Mateo

yes, yes! much preferred over her other song 

 

Yeule – An Angel Held Me Like A Child

this is so pretty

 

Kelsey Lu – Poor Fake

i really like that violin(?) the speaking portion fit well too and didn’t ruin the mood 

 

Billie Eilish – i love you

i usually really enjoy ballads, but this was a bit too bland.

 

GFRIEND – Wish

this is kinda cute, might fall somewhere in the middle of my rankings

 

Sigrid – Basic

a bop! def one of the stronger songs on the album

 

TWICE – Trick It

oh, this was kinda different compared to the other kpop songs. not a huge fan

 

Turnover - Number On The Gate

this is rather chill, i like the production.

Posted

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь

The singer's vocals are very pretty. Not a huge fan of the production though.

 

everglow - moon

Haven't listened to much K-Pop outside of Blackpink, but this very cute!

 

p!nk - hey why

Like others have already said, this definitely isn't the type of song I'd have expected from P!nk :rip:It's catchy but kind of generic. I like the pre-chorus though.

 

tove lo - stay over

Haven't listened to Sunshine Kitty as much as her other albums, but this is definitely one of my fave songs on it :jonny:

 

wjsn - you got

Eh, it's cute but I don't really have a desire to ever hear it again.

 

red velvet - lp

Ooh this is nice. I like the harmonies.

 

vertite - body in my bed

Oh wow, I really like this. Will definitely check out more of her discography at some point.

 

tove lo - mateo 

Not as good as Stay Over, but still a strong Tove song!

 

yeule - an angel held me like a child

I really like the verses, but the chorus/instrumental section drags on a bit too long for me.

 

kelsey lu - poor fake

Omg who is this and why is she so good? :jonny4: Let me STAN. A catchy AND beautiful song.

 

billie eilish - i love you

One of my fave Billie songs. It's so haunting and beautiful :weeps: Kudos to whoever was quick enough to snatch this.

 

gfriend - wish

This feels a bit outdated tbh. It's cute but probably my least favourite of the K-Pop songs so far.

 

sigrid - basic

I don't know why I assumed I wouldn't like her, but this is cute! Her voice is pretty.

 

twice - trick it

Cute! Don't really have any other thoughts on it, but it's nice.

 

turnover - number on the gate

I'm enjoying listening to it quite a lot but I'm also not sure if I'd ever want to listen to it again.

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь 

Started off quite nice but I felt like the song went nowhere as it progressed and it was also too long which made me lose interest even more as it went by


Everglow - Moon

I really liked the chorus and the production in that part :clap3: overall a very nice kpop (I’m assuming) song, didn’t expect it to be kpop when I read the title but I was pleasantly surprised 

 

P!nk - (Hey Why) Miss You Sometime
Chileeee the autotune :bibliahh: I don’t like how it was used, and overall I‘m not a fan of the song even if it didn’t have the autotune like that, I haven’t listened to that album but I’m pretty sure she has better 


Tove Lo - Stay Over

Excellent luv, SK was my 2019 AOTY so :cm:

 

WJSN - You Got

This is very cute! I like the kind of throwback aspect of the production, I enjoyed this a lot :jamming:

 

Red Velvet - LP

The amount of kpop :dies: being completely honest, compared to the other two kpop songs before this, this is my least favorite of the three, but it’s not bad. It feels like it belongs in a Mario Bros soundtrack :laugh:

 

VÉRITÉ - body in my bed

Pleased to see her here :alexz: probably my favorite song on new skin (SIB remains superior)

 

Tove Lo - Mateo

Excellent luv [2] and also Mateo > Stay Over but they’re both excellent

 

yeule - An Angel Held Me Like a Child

This was pretty, honestly don’t see myself listening to this on a regular basis but it was fine 

 

Kelsey Lu - Poor Fake

This caught my attention since I saw the album cover, and I was definitely not disappointed :jonny2: I really liked this song, I’m gonna listen to the album later just cause of that gorgeous cover 

 

Billie Eilish - i love you

One of my favorite songs on the album, truly captivating and gets me in my feelings :'(

 

GFRIEND - Wish

This was cute, not my favorite of the kpop tracks but it was a cute bop, I liked the chorus/drop

 

Sigrid - Basic

Whoever sent this song can die in a ditch! One of my favorites from SP and it has a lot of meaning to me since it reminds me of my ex man cause we dedicated it to each other so it gets me emotional :emofish:

 

TWICE - Trick It

Was not feeling it until the chorus :jonny5: let me go save this on my playlist real quick 

 

Turnover - Number On the Gate

Not my thing honestly but it’s cute, it’s listenable

Друг (Drug) feat. anna severnee - деньночь 

It's uh...aesthetic? I guess?

 

Everglow - Moon

A solid pop song, but I still find Bon Bon Chocolat to be both better and entirely overhated, along with a grand majority of other songs prominently featuring autotune.

 

P!nk -  (Hey Why) Miss You Sometime

This bops. Her mind using autotune like this :smitten: 

 

Tove Lo - Stay Over

Does anyone have the link to that tweet where someone's like "Tove Lo's unreleased song is TRAGIC!" or something and it's a girl that sounds eerily close to her going "I'VE GOT STDS...MAKE MY PUSSY ITCH"

 

Red Velvet - LP

It's a Red Velvet song, definitely.

 

VÉRITÉ - body in my bed

Inoffensive.

 

Tove Lo - Mateo

Wait I found it. AN ABSOLUTE BANGER.

 

yeule - An Angel Held Me Like A Child

This title. ?

 

Kelsey Lu - Poor Fake

Poor flop.

 

Billie Eilish - i love you

I'm doing these at near 2 AM because I couldn't sleep and maybe I found my solution.

 

GFRIEND - Wish

It's girl group K-Pop. :michael:

 

Sigrid - Basic

Annoying.

 

TWICE - Trick It

Cool!

 

Turnover - Number On The Gate

It's pleasant I suppose.
