Friending Meme

[florianschild]

Maybe you struck up a conversation while you waited in line for the roller coaster. Maybe you and a questionably large group of friends all tumbled out of a van and walked in together. However it happened, you're now here at the Carnival with your friends. The best experiences are all the richer for having fun and interesting people to share them with. Let's all get to know each other and make some friends to hold our hands during the scary rides or split a basket of fries with.

Feel free to post your answers in the comments or on your own journal and share a link. See you around the fairgrounds!

Hello! Always happy to have new friends with things in common with :)

I will admit I'm not the most familiar with the K-Pop scene but that playlist opening song you shared... WOW. I love it. I might need to get into this stuff. - haha omg careful because I am VIBRATING with suppressed urge to drag you into this group (that was a solo from the group leader, the whole group has 8 members)!

Haha, far be it from me to dissuade someone from sharing more good music! ^.^

Okay, I'm going to restrain myself to a short sampler and then if you get to the 'omg who is THAT??' or '...what is happening here?' level of interest I will do a pimp post WITH DELIGHT.

They do various genres and gleefully embrace the 'noise music' accusations. They are self-produced and stupidly talented. And pretty.

The breakout hit: https://youtu.be/TQTlCHxyuu8?si=OZBiBaC9TypE4k8X

Example of a slower song, this is a Japanese release and one of my personal favourites: https://youtu.be/oUq2a6t258o?si=KXDkqvIXEJJBJb37

The one with some famous friends: https://youtu.be/0P0aQreFs8w?si=du3smQZNN6455a6- (two of the group members are Aussie so)

Cute love song: https://youtu.be/jYSlpC6Ud2A?si=pqaEbG1LpsSaX9eD

Oooh, a fun little treasure trove here! My experience is definitely limited, but my impression is that this group is thematically a lot darker than most K-Pop I've seen before? Very possible my perception is off due to limited exposure, but was fun to see regardless.

Definitely had a 'omg who is THAT??' in that first song around the 1:20 mark with that deep DEEP voice there. And so pretty!! All of them are!

Definitely had a 'omg who is THAT??' in that first song around the 1:20 mark with that deep DEEP voice there. - And that is what's called the 'Felix effect' 😂😂😂 He is almost invariably the one that catches everyone's attention first with the contradiction of the voice of a devil/looks of an angel. That is Lee Felix, one of the two Aussie members, third youngest of the group.

'K-pop' tends to be used as a catch-all category that actually encompasses way more range than just 'pop' genre wise. But yes, they do have a darker edge than some groups, but almost all the ones I like tend to experiment across genres a lot.

Anyway, delighted that you are interested! Their discography is wide so lots to listen to. And that's not even getting started on the various vlogs and variety content. Anyway, here are the members if you want to look more at the pretty: https://kprofiles.com/stray-kids-members-profile/
