kevin: the dancing doesn't work with the free jazz
yunyi: i feel like this dancing is the personification of a bass solo tho

each style matches with the solo style of their instrument
kevin: kind of
yunyi: like how bass solos tend to not really make too much sense because you can't hear them half the time
henry: mannequin challenge

Lindsey: I like that a lot, (D: That was pretty cool) I dig it
D: Normally I would make fun of like 1930s-
sing, sing, sing, like "Speakeasy", like Jazz-
L: That's [19]20's (D: But like the fact-) L: That's the [19]20's not the [19]30's
D: Eh, 30's too right? When did prohibition end? It doesn't matter
Anyways, the fact that they even like included something like that though
I thought was really cool
K: I think it relies too heavily on the throwback
Like I think it works
For sure... Y: It's kind of like
It's kind of like pasta dinner, you know you get a lot,
And it's really tasty, and sometimes you're really tired of it,
But then you can't be upset about pasta so-
U: HAHA I'm assigning you *yunyi, you have to make a comparison to a type of food
K: You ALWAYS do that so often! (Y & U: HAHAHA)
F: The dude not-
Ok I like the Cheetah coat dude but the other dude more
MMMMMHMMMM
UAGHHHH-
He's-
~very handsome~
H: He's a nice piece of ass~
F: He's a nice piece of... man~
U: The next one I chose more for the music video, because it was really cool
It's TOTALLY opposite music style
K: -and regardless so
I like this beginning
It's like under the skin
Nobody understands...
K: Nobody gets that reference
Y: Ohhhh Viruses~
L: Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
D: TVXQ is the powerhouse of the cell
L: TVXQ is the powerhouse of Kpop
D: Actually
L: It sounds like a phone, like a ringtone haha
F: They have a serious fog machine...
Spooky~
U: You'll see K: Oh
Y: Sounds like DDR !! [Dance Dance Revolution]
THIS SOUNDS EXACTLY LIKE DDR
K: Oh~
L & D: HAHAHA
K: I like this song way more already,
just the way its-the-its processed, the-
it makes me wanna dance immediately you know
H: Is that flaset- oh, that top range!
K: Oh I know what this sounds like! Y: BREAK IT DOWN
K: But it-but it's got it's own character
F: It just sounds like "Crazy Frog"
Y: Haha
F: I don't know, I'm not feeling this video
H: Yeah me too F: It's like-
get those metallic twist off your arm son, (U: Oh no, you'll see) stop it
L: Gotta release it like a butterfly
D: Yeah I know, this choreography's pretty like...
L: This choreography feels like I'm watching like a...
what is the word I am looking for?
Interpretive dance, (D: Interpretive dance...true) there we go
L: It's like pulling the swords- D: It's so like driven and like dramatic
D: And like... L: Yeah
H: Definitely a reference to Michael Jackson right there with the leaning forward
K: Going to I-where is this- where are we going with it
Oh no, it's not
L: [singing "Dj got us Fallin' in love" by Usher] Falling in love again~
K: Falling in Love again by Usher, yeah
F: Splash, splash
Y: I think it's the same key
K: No, no, no I think it's a half step lower
F: *wub-wub-wub-wub*
D: Oh, dupstep L: *wub-wub-wub-wub*
F: I dig it
OHHHHH I LIKE THAT!
D: Oh that's so cool! L: Oh THEY'RE DONE WITH THEIR ARMS (D: Yeah)
F: *wub-wub-wub-wub-wub* Okayyyyy I like what they're doing now
L: Ok that is really cool
F: It's winning me back
H: I'm not crazy about the whole dubstep thing though
F: I like the *wub-wub-wub-wub* but just this whole techno beat that's going on the whole time,
it's just like exhausts my ears, and it's like-
H: 'I-it exhausts my ears' F: my ears are tired
Y: I've always wondered if they have like-
metallic stuff attached to their clothes like how do they wash it?
F: *tsh-tsh-tsh*
stop!
F & H: *tsh-tsh-tsh-tsh*
L: [singing "Dj got us Fallin' in love" by Usher] D: Yeah
F: Splash!
H: Splashy splash!
K: I like this

F: That's elec-(H: They're battling in the elements) That's electricity
F: That's- (H: That's fog) That's an air
L: They're asking for it
D & F: *vocalizing high note*
D: Oh! That was really high
K: Wow
F: *wub-wub-wub-wub* HL WOAH! Modulation as fuck
D: Oh L: Woah
Y: Oh did it go halftime? (K: Yes) Yeah
F: Tinfoil boy, go away, I want metallic arms
OooooOOOH
L: It just lit up D: Yeah
H: It went half time that's dope as fuck
D: Just got way cooler
L: It's like the introduction and then the exposition started
L: We're in the development now D: Talking about this in sonata form haha
F: Woaaaa
L: Ok sorry, it was the intro and then it was the first strain,
and now we're-and then there was a second strain, now we're on the break strain
They skipped the trio altogether (D: Ok)
K: Okay Y: Woahhhh
K: Haha Y: That was so cool!
H: Yeah, modulated back to the original key
That's cool
L: Seems they skipped the trio
D: It just stayed in the same- L: It just stayed yeah
D: Wow, John Philip Sousa is turning over in his grave right now
L: Hahaha He's rolling over D: You guys call this a march
D: Except like...nobody called it a march L: I'm like yes Mr. Sousa
L: Yes Mr. Sousa D: She's the only one that called it a march
L: It's not a march
It was just a joke
F: Mhm, ok robot tinfoil man
H: *robot voice* Catch me if you wanna F: I'll catch you
Y: I feel like this is like a third interlude (K: Yeah)
Y: Yeah and it's different each time, this is really awesome
F: I do wanna catch you
L & D: Ohhh L: That was cool
K: Oh that was 東方神起 [Dōng fāng shén qǐ]
*cricket sfx*
Y: What?
L: I like how all these videos have like a
Ending screen kinda thing you know like (D: Yeah)
They have like the name of the-
All: *panic screaming*
L: Oh my god hahaha
U: SPOILERS
U: Which one did you like better?
D: Hmmm L: I like the first one,
L: Because I liked how it had the instruments in it-
D: Feel like the first one did kinda take a step away from the norm (L: Mhm)
And it kinda brought something a little bit new to the table-
L: That's why I liked it- (D: It was fun to watch)
L: I liked the second one a lot (D: Yeah) But they were just totally different-
There were so different from each other And I think I like the first one better
U: You guys liked the second one better (Y & K: Yes)
D: I still liked the second one more (U: Okay) I think it was-I think it was really good
U: You guys obviously liked the first one better F: Yeah (H: For sure)
Y: I love this one
L: Snake arm 10/10
Y: I think just as like a piece of music it's really well produced
and it's really well written
This one had that sort of like dare I say strophic form
It-every time it came back, it was different,
Like it was like a variation of what the original one was-
Agh I'm such a nerd K: That's true
