Nayeon's Vibrator's Top 10 Songs of 2016 - #10 - Twice's Cheer Up


I'm going to do the top 10 list a little different this year. Instead of doing one post that lists all of my top songs in them, I figured I would try highlighting each song. It's December, usually the time of year when no one really tries in K-pop except to grab a few quick wons from Christmas ballads, so I'm starting the countdown a little early this year.




I have an Excel spreadsheet saved of all of the songs I liked throughout the year (yeah, true accountant here) and gave them a score on a scale of 1-10. There were probably a dozen songs that I ranked higher than "Cheer Up" based on first-listen impression. "Cheer Up" has been a song that went from "I like it, the girls look real cute in the MV, but it's not that great" to "I fucking love this song and have to watch them perform it a music show every day."

"Cheer Up" continues Twice's style of disjointed-but-really-addicting songs from "Like Ooh-Ahh" that was released in 2015. What makes me like "Cheer Up" is the bright and colorful melody to the song. Like the title implies, I always feel more cheery when the song comes on in my car on the way to work/on the way home. In general, Twice's title tracks remind me of why I got into K-pop in the first place - addictive, energetic songs that brighten up my day just a little bit.

I also can't forget the real reason why I like the "Cheer Up" era so much. It's the era that made me start sexually identifying as Nayeon's Vibrator.

[MV Review] AOA - Heart Attack

The pretty girls are AOA! AOA starts off the summer deluge of girl group comebacks, which means that this summer will be pretty fucking awesome. The MV starts out with the AOA girls sans Seolhyun playing a game of lacrosse. Seeing as how bad the girls got raped in the game, I would say that the team they were playing must be playing for Duke . During their pitiful attempt at playing a game, Choa gets knocked down by an opponent. He takes off his helmet and Choa falls for him. Choa definitely wants it up the ass from this guy. However, once the song actually starts, it shows the AOA members and the other lacrosse team in the same classroom. I know Duke has high admission standards, thus the whites and Asians in the classroom, but did they stop affirmative action because I didn't see any other minorities in the classroom. Seolhyun is introduced as the new student, and all of the dudes want to bust a nut on her ass. Later on, Choa writes a letter to do dude she's lusting after, bu...

"Sixteen" Ends; Twice is Born

JYP’s “Sixteen” program aired its final episode today and there has been a giant shitstorm surrounding the show since the MILK voting poll ended last night. Even if you’re not invested in the show and/or the group, bystanders will get a lot of enjoyment out of what happened today. For those of you out of the loop, “Sixteen” was a survival program for JYP’s upcoming girl group Twice. It has already been five years since JYP has debuted a girl group (miss A). Out of the 16 girls, 7 were supposed to debut in the group. This show was to see which seven members was going to debut. The seven girls were placed in the “Major” group and the other nine were placed in the “Minor” group. There were missions to see which members would trade places, and usually at the end of a mission, someone from the Minor team would be eliminated. (This is a long post and contains spoilers if you haven’t seen the last episode or read the spoilers yet.) At the start of the last episode, there were 12 members left,...
