Spica recently returned with their new single, You Don’t Love Me. This single is produced and written by their senior label mate and famous soloist, Lee Hyori who we all must know. This has to be one of the most underrated bands of all time. All their past singles have been amazing, but they have hardly been successful. It is quite disappointing. From what we are able to see here, is the retro concept. Now, if you think back a few years: Secret, T-Ara, Wonder Girls etc. all attempted the retro concept and they were deemed as mega hits. Now, it has been quite a while since those comebacks, so I am not sure if it can hold on as much as t did those few years ago, but if Korean still digs the same things, this song and comeback will be really a hit as well.

The song starts off with that really high and long note, which to me, was not really a great start to the song. I am not disappointed, but I don’t think it was a good thing to put that part at the start of the song. I liked the instrumental of the song and thought it was really good. It took me a few listens to get into the song, which is quite disappointing, considering that Spica got me into their other songs straight away. I found the rapping was not as great in this song and it really did not suit this song. But the chorus of the song is quite catchy and sounds pretty cool. The song itself talks about how the girl decide that the guy no longer loves them. Honestly, this song could have been better in my opinion. It is not as great as Tonight, but it still pretty good.

The music video was pretty good. Though, I was not much of a fan of the really old outfits and stuff that you would have expected to be trendy like is the 70s or 80s. However, the best part of the whole video was definitely one of the outfits and I think was the most amazing part. That ass!!! Yeah, really, beside that, there is not much about this music video to talk about. It is quite monotone and boring to watch and the only thing that was great were the asses. Yes, it is quite sad isn’t?

The dance is pretty cool. Again, not really to a high standard, but still pretty good. I notice that only two girls are given the spotlight in Spica and they are Bohyung and Boa. The other girls are really pushed to the side. I don’t why, but everytime I watch their performances, Ladies Code’s Pretty Pretty just appears in my mind. Maybe because of the retro feel of it and the dresses? Or is it just me?

5/10. Not that I am that disappointed with the comeback, I just feel too nice to give them a really good score for this song. Like most of the songs, I listed above with the retro concept, I actually had a hard time getting into them, so I guess this goes the same way.

Around over a week ago, I asked “Which sexy concept from January did you like the most?” Guess who won? Rainbow BLAXX’s Cha Cha. That caught me off by surprise. Girl’s Day, AOA, No comeback and Dal Shabet followed in the exact order.

Spica recently made their comeback with a brand new digital single, Tonight. One of the best songs of the year so far, Spica has not been on stage for quite sometime. You know those groups who debut and then just disappear because they have not made it? Yeah, I thought that was what had happened to Spica. They have disappeared for near three quarters of a year, and I was quite disappointed. This is a really good vocal group that needs to win. I cannot stand to see them on 6th place and lower on other music charts. Seriously, this song is awesome and deserving to be higher on the charts.

The song is really well done. This group is known to have amazing vocals, but hey, this song showcases that and even more. I literally love every aspect of the song as it is amazing. From the instrumental to the rap to the vocals, I was literally blown away with this song. I thought Lonely and I’ll Be There were awesome but this song probably tops those. Also would probably add that this is the song of the summer. It has that refreshing and cool feel that makes you feel like you are at the beach.

As for the music video though, I was quite iffy about where my thoughts lie upon the line. I am not really quite impressed, but I feel that the song fits the video. But it also seems that this band is not getting the full funding that they should be. Coloured powder paint was so last year. Actually no, it was a few years ago. It has that feel that After School Red did for their music video, witht hat desert kind of theme to it, which I never actually liked. Honestly, a bit more expression on the girls faces would be better, as they look they have no expression, don’t care about life, or that “get me out of here” look which they share. And those girls, why are you dancing on the road? Don’t you know the dangers of cars and at night? Also, some season, they look quite drunk and really “out of it” if you know what I mean. I love the ending though, where they watch a sunrise, which is amazing. Fits the song perfectly.

I am IN LOVE with this stage performance. The dance to the costumes (actually, I will take it back) is amazing. The dance formations are totally cool and the dance just make me want to get up and dance. Woo! Awesome. The chorus was pretty cool and the dance is not that hard to follow. Trust me.

9/10. Mainly because of the music video.

Have fun….

The girls have made another comeback and have not failed to impress this time. You may know as this as the song that rips Sistar’s Alone big time, but I believe that this is a unique style. Yeah, so screw all of you haters out there. Wait, I mean, the girls have shown a different..um…style..to Sistar. Yes, I was meant to say that….

Anyway, the song songs equally as unique as the girls have gone for something a lot serious. Screw happy girls, these girls are mature. They sound more mature than their other song, I’ll Be There, which was happy and full of life. This song however is quite different from I’ll Be There. This song has more highlights for me than their previous songs.  I found the start of the song is quite subtle its lyrics and it slowly brings the full glimpse of the song into full as it edges closer to the chorus. I love the”papapapapapapa” in this song. It adds to the feel of the song much more than a boring instrumental. However, I have to say. Lonely is the title of song. However when they pronounce at the start of each line in the chorus, they sound unrecognisable. But beside that, really awesome song.

The music video has not plot. It is just them, a few solo shots and them dancing. KPOP companies, it is not that hard to make good music videos. I guess they only had themselves in the music video, so they can look “Lonely”, but beside that, not bad. I guess you can say they stole Sistar’s dress, however not everyone who wears a tight dress and has a cut down the side is considered to be Sistar’s dress. Even this dress seems quite loose and is made of a different type of material compared to Sistar’s near glossy-plastic type.

The live is pretty good. The dance kind of reminds me of  Marilyn Maroyle (Is that how you spell her name?), where she would stand on top of a fan, with a fan underneath, her dress would fly up, and she would only cover the front of it. Pretty good dance.

I’d give this song a 8/10. Pretty good.

Back from their debut earlier this year (I think) with a different song. I am sure earlier this year they made their debut with Russian Roulette, right? Well, they showed off their vocals there and new style, which was different in a sense. They also had a comeback with Painkiller, which showed the girls in a totally different style, showcasing their vocals. I liked thier Painkiller song, and compared to this, this was much of a letdown. However this is still a good song, right?

The girls set the standard a bit too high with their previous song, and to make a comeback with a song in like an 80’s era really does not match that standard. (Yes, you may guess, I do not like 80’s). But this song still has some of their vocal talents in it. It is also really great that they are trying something new for once, not like certain bands. It really matches their image though, they are the type to do these songs. It is has that cute feeling that is carried through the song to the music video. I guess the most memorable part of the song would be the “I’ll be there!” It really brings the song to a whole new level. From crappy to pretty modern. But I am sure it can be agreed that some parts can be fixed. The raps do not match the feel of the song, and some parts sounded thrown in and mushed together.

The music video is quite weird. Something tells me it is quite similar to Girl’s Day Twinkle Twinkle or Oh My God! Horse head and something you do not see everyday: a horse as a DJ. Duh, best part ever. Just imagine the clean up bill for that one. I am not sure about the start of the music video. A girl in an alleyway in the rain kind of sounds really out of place for me. But with the stars as well, make the whole thing seems like a gospel to me. You know? Not really great. One last thing: the shirts. All I can see is now is SsPpIiCcAa. Yeah, gibberish.

The dance here is kind of okay. I mean, I don’t really have much to say about the dance. Actually you know what, I have not noticed an of the live performances. I just listen to the song. Weird! But hey, the group still have their dance skills.

7/10. I think that is reasonable.
