PUTA QUE ! Congratulations bestie WJSN, now I know you've just disbanded but can you girls regroup and make a comeback or something ? Hehe.
If Destiny is an everlasting classic with modern touch,
Save Me, Save You is a game changer. Sure, the christian horse girl anime-esque girl-groups music at the time are slowly adopting more synth-pop approach, thanks to the producers in this rate's work. But
Save Me, Save You experiments with stronger electronic influence and pushing it to the front, and thank God that experimentation pays off.
Opened with that iconic dramatic piano riff and a simple Seola's line,
Save Me, Save You quickly unwraps themselves to reveal the absolutely beauty of it. I've praised
Full8loom so much in the past, but wow this time they FUCKING DEVOURED. Like I can't describe how complicated and interesting the production is, my ears are always tingled by it. It's like every listen there is another little aspect and detail that reveal its beauty. Another thing that I love about
Save Me, Save You production is how it perfectly mix the ethereal, magical synths with future-bass and house influences that is so cunty and girlboss. That's how you manage to catch the hearts of the gays.
The melody of
Save Me, Save You is also gorgeous, it's not overly complicated and every part of it are so catchy. Outside the chorus, the seductive pre-chorus is definitely one of the highlight and must be reserved for sapphic community. The chorus, whew.
BUTAKHAE !
So powerful, so catchy, so magnetic. The girls ate and delivers the chorus, brings out the needed energy and urgency. The bridge is also crazy, it may not beat Dreams Come True but it still devoured. The calming and whimsical part is so beautiful before Mother Yeonjung once again delivers the high note of the century.
@FunkyButChic perfectly describes the cuntenserven of it all :
"“Buttakhae! *power walk in formation*” Yeah, that might have changed lives." Exactly and I said ma'am !
The closing is so pretty, I love how calm and bittersweet that part is alongside the opening, and both of them Seola always delivers the drama. Truly an underrated force in K-pop, like that's an all-rounder superstar that you need Korea !
Thoroughly deserved win, I must applaud
Full8loom once again for this gem. Every part of
Save Me, Save You is perfectly crafted and sculpted, they should've been proud of this because it's artistically visionary and clearly coming from their passionate ambition in the sea of mass-produced products and genetically crafted to appeal the masses.
================================================================
I can't believe this rate is finally completed. THANK YOU so much for you girls that participate in this rate, like I love you girls so much. I'm grateful to find people that is passionately love what I also love.
I'm truly truly sorry for all of the wrongs that I do throughout this rate. The delay, the absolute lack of creativity in writings, the absence of beauty in my "graphic design", lack of content and numbers. After running two rates, I'm thinking of retiring because why I love the idea of ranking songs but kinda dislike the process of it all ff. Thank you too for giving me ideas for the next rate that I can run, but now I'm thinking of it maybe I need to take a rest for a bit. I dunno, if some of you want to run the idea or maybe want to run it with me, I'm open for suggestion !
Lastly, of course thank you so much for all of the producers that we rate :
Full8loom, 1Piece and e.one. I'm thoroughly delighted that the Top 10 is pretty diverse and all of the producers have their chance on the top, shows how great and amazing all of the producers are and deserves every praises they got. I hope they can somehow find this and see it as an appreciation for their talentry and artistic values. I also hope all of us can find a discovery here, whether a song or an artist, and anticipate for their next amazing works.
Once again, thank you so much <3
