Edm house beat feel because of both musical genius dj ian asher and terry zhong that they made this a new vibe and the music has made it to tomorrowland in europe discoland and sb19 made it a wholesome dance rythmn.
Totally get that the sound and concept are not your preference. Love your honesty 😊 Personally, I find it different…unique and unexpected. It’s not my usual genre either, but the more I listen to it, the more I like it 😁
April you're back!! love your honesty. the club sounds was not my type of sound either but i surprisingly loved and enjoyed this song, I have an LSS until now. I am happy that they got to explore different sound and concept. Concept wise i super love the contrast of the very formal outfit deadpan face with the fun & wacky choreography which is according to Jah is exactly what he is going for
Fell in love with the melody the first time I heard it. Choreography is unique and out-of-the-box! It's so good! Something different, but oh my... Such a catchy song! I'm having LSS! ❤❤❤
Thanks for the RV! Super appreciate the honesty. I agree that the song is simple, so to me, the way Justin and Jay directed the concept and choreo are the highlight, unexpected interpretation..
Was waiting for your reaction. Check out how insane the dance practice and its bts. Its mind blowing how they pulled it off in 1 take and how Jay recorded it on his phone.
I wasn't into it the very first time i heard it but it kinda grows on me and now I really loved it. props to the boys and the whole team for not being afraid to try new genre. Nice RV tho. Tnx for always supporting SB19 & A'tins.
That’s fine, April! The song is mainstream and radio friendly. Pablo didn’t write this and was not involved in the music production so that explains why it doesn’t have the really hard hitting beats and lyrics. The song actually grows on you as you hear more of it; it actually brightens my overall mood so that’s really great. 😊 Take care and congrats again!
Yes. It’s commercial “common” sounding and it’s selling. It is not the “SB19” sound we got used to and fell for. But the MV and choreography are unique and executed well. I guess that’s where the SB19 “stamp” is - being creative, not shy from doing something out of the norm.
You know the boys so well, you know it’s not their sound and no contribution lyrics,composition,production wise. But as it’s a collaboration and the sound has a wider reach, our boys are continuing to reach their goal of global recognition! And the dance for me is genius too, may seem opposite the meaning of the song but Justin’s mind works differently, it is actually very connected, we act weird when we are so in love that we lose control. And the dead pan face is a pretence of control yet their body is saying otherwise 😂
Thev have a contribution on the production. It is all 1z for the dance choreography, the mv, the creative direction. I like that they seek out other people to collaborate and to help spread their music , and talent to a wider audience. The voices and vocals are all legit sb19 . They can sing any genre whether they write or produce the music doesn’t take away from how freakin talented they are 😍🥰
Hi April. Totally get what you mean about the choreography. Thank you for your honest reaction. Fake Faces Wish bus is already out in case you wanna do a reaction to it as well.
I get it that this is not the typical SB19 brand of music, but what the boys did with this genre of music MV wise, choreo wise and vocal wise is very much the high level of quality and genius thst only they can deliver. ❤ Congrats to being an expectant Mom and your new bundle of joy coming soon! 🤗
It's perfectly okay, April, i'm so glad you saw the mv coz it's so funny how stone-faced they are dancing to a quirky choreo.😊❤. And yes, Felip looks and sounds so good!😊. Hope you'll finally get to see his Predator League performance coz his suit there is similar to this but with a coat and gloves. And girl, he is gorgeously handsome in that one.😊❤. Hope you'll still do an rv on the dance practice and it's bts. You'll be amazed that the entire choreo was recorded without pause. 😊
I liked the song specially the sound and lyrics but i didn't really liked the choreo at first. The more i watched reactions and watched the mv it grew on me.😅 Now i love everything about the song. 😊
Tbh, At first i thought this isn't the real choreo. You'll appreciate it more if you watch the dance practice and the behind the scene of this song. I bet you this song will bring SB19 to greater heights. #1 in 9 countries on itunes and #1 trending on YT. Radio friendly, a club vibe, Coachella performance 💯💙
Ian Asher and Terry Zhong appear on the TV shots. The concept of the MV is like synchronized swimming (which are hinted by the tile, waves for ceiling, the group formations, hand movements, eyeglasses and serious look without moving lips)
Justin deliberately wanted weird and quirky movements depicting how one behaves when control is lost due to euphoric emotions as the lyrics suggest intimacy with someone. You can try to control your mind but your body does the opposite😊
Justin already explained on their vlog why he came up with the idea of the dance moves to be that weird. And yes, the song is sensual so opposite to their dance choreography hahahaha 🤣
you must be gen z..the theme is more of like 70s 80s era..but april is so cute..i love watching and listening to moonlight idk why maybe because i see the creativity and hardwork they put on it
SB19 IS NOT AFRAID TO SHOWCASE EVERY GENRE AND BREAK THE NORMS! THIS ONE IS WEIRD AND QUIRKY YET THEY NAILED IT!!! Im so glad you still appreciate the songs even if u are not into edm some whatever.. While some filipinos bash and says its downgrade or flop! Like what??? Mostly reactors said this is worldclass! Thank you so much!
Hi April! The song has "a bedroom vibes 😂😂😂" but the boys took the choreo in the opposite way to make it "children friendly" to watch, PG! The quirky moves, funny is what Justin said " a feeling when you're in love, you do some awkward, weird things!"😂😂😂 ❤❤❤
That's SB19 they always go out of their comfort zone, trying new possibilities. And I stan the right artists! #Moonlight by #IanXSB19XTerry is such a banger! 💙🌕🤘✨
I respect the honesty. Makes me trust you even more knowing you ain’t going to lie even with a band you love. Even when I listened to it on an ad, it also wasn’t to my liking even considering I listen to a spectrum of music. Apparently it wasn’t made by Pablo so I feel a little better about not vibing to it as hard as the other tracks.
yey….nice to see you again April ganda! I am really looking forward with your sb19 reactions i love it so much that’s why been missing you whenever the boys drops new. happy to see you reacting moonlight! Thank you! Much love here! 🫰💙
I'm the same. Not my type of song. It's very standard techno pop. Also, you can tell it wasn't written by Pablo, doesn't have his unique sound. But, it is growing on me and I can't get it out of my head after streaming so much. 😆 The choreo, too, took me a while to get used to. But, now I find it hilarious and genius (you should see the dance practice video, even better!). I also love the swimming pool concept and the borrowed moves from synchronized swimming. I understand its popularity though. It is a very catchy song and a summery dance song that would appeal to a wide range of people.
From Wikipedia: “Moonlight" (stylized in all uppercase) is a song by the American record producer Ian Asher, Filipino boy band SB19, and Chinese record producer Terry Zhong. The song was written by Ian McNelley, Zhong, Jackson Lee Morgan, Lenno Linjama, Sophie Pauline Curtis, and Nick Cozine, with production handled by Asher, Zhong, and Linjama. An EDM and dance-pop song, it is about fantasizing romantic desires with their partner in a sensual lyricism. The song was released as a single via Liquid State and Sony Music Philippines on May 3, 2024.” We’ve gotten so used to, and to love much, Pablo’s very unique writing style and music, and that’s why it immediately registers as different when someone else creates the song. There’s just something missing. It’s Justin’s weird, creative concept and the unique choreography, plus SB19 performing it, of course, that makes it lovable - especially that we all know they are not their normal 😂 selves here. Would this song be as popular if not for these? Hmmm. .
It's fine girl, I think they focused more on showing their dance skills here. It sounded mainstream maybe because they wanted a song that can be easily digested by the masses esp in western countries since they wanted to widen their reach.
honestly agreed, the sound is definitely not my preference but i still think they performed it really well!! justin did a great job with the concept here. the choreo with the straight faces is so silly to me but i think they pulled it off well 😂 i will say the song has grown on me a lot over the past week lol, not favorite of theirs but definitely very catchy!! loved this reaction!! 💙🌖
There is no SB19 touch on the music production and composition maybe that’s why it sounds different and mainstream. But I love how the song grows on you. The beat makes me groove 😁
For me it is like drinking a cold fresh drink . The song is so refreshing and their vocals are to die for . Some people said it has a Michael Jackson vibe and Stell did mention it
You know in the Philippines, elders say that if you're crushing really hard over someone when u'r preggy, your baby will look like him/her. im not gonna be surprised if your baby will have felip's resemblance 😁😁 It's just hearsays though hehehe
We all know what the Message of the Lyrics of the song means and the Choreography is Totally in Juxtaposition to the its message. We all get that. I don't think SB19 will ever do a Lyrical Choreographic Interpretation of that song just like the way they presented "I WANT YOU". Personally, I believe JUSTIN' choice for the Concept and Creative Directing of doing a "straight face', quirky, totally no connection to the Lyrics of the Song was Wise. He "Sterilized" the Lyrics to keep it Clean and made the Unique Choreography the "Focus" of the "MOONLIGHT" MV. That's my 2 cents take on the Creative Freedom that he did. 💙MAHALIMA's GrandMa S., San Diego, CA
To me, it was plain and simple BUUUUUUT the song does grow in you. Their choreo reminds me of undewater synchronise swimming. To me, They dont used facial expression because they dont want us to think, SB19 is all about face and being individual but they are also about action, synchronicity, movement and that they are ONE, they are SB19. In synchonised swimming, if one fak up, everyone will also bare the consequence. SB19 move as a team,if one tries to fak it up, everyone will also get the consequences. Just like the sport, if they win, they WIN as a team
In this MV, you will notice that the group appears to be in a swimming pool, performing choreographed movements in the water, which could be synchronized swimming at first glance. The setting and their actions suggest they're doing a well-coordinated aquatic dance routine.
Thank you for supporting sb19

Same here. It is so upbeat. I really like it! 😊

I wasn't into it the very first time i heard it but it kinda grows on me and now I really loved it. props to the boys and the whole team for not being afraid to try new genre. Nice RV tho. Tnx for always supporting SB19 & A'tins.
😆😆 I really enjoy watching your RV😆 thanks for always supporting these boyz and ofcourse the 6th member Felip 🤭

The song actually grows on you as you hear more of it; it actually brightens my overall mood so that’s really great. 😊
Take care and congrats again!
LOL, it's good to have you back April! I think you'd appreciate it more if you see the Dance Practice Video.
Yes. It’s commercial “common” sounding and it’s selling. It is not the “SB19” sound we got used to and fell for. But the MV and choreography are unique and executed well. I guess that’s where the SB19 “stamp” is - being creative, not shy from doing something out of the norm.
You know the boys so well, you know it’s not their sound and no contribution lyrics,composition,production wise.

SB19 consistently delivers high-quality songs and music videos with each releases.
Hi April, Congratulations! Wishing you'll have a healthy baby and easy delivery💕
How’s mommyhood April? Felip had so many cool moments in this music vid. His face card was truly giving. I loved the choreo in this MV!
The dance moves were so weird in a good way. It grows on you the more you listen and watch it. 😂
Happy Mothers Day to you April😊❤
It's perfectly okay, April, i'm so glad you saw the mv coz it's so funny how stone-faced they are dancing to a quirky choreo.😊❤. And yes, Felip looks and sounds so good!😊. Hope you'll finally get to see his Predator League performance coz his suit there is similar to this but with a coat and gloves. And girl, he is gorgeously handsome in that one.😊❤. Hope you'll still do an rv on the dance practice and it's bts. You'll be amazed that the entire choreo was recorded without pause. 😊
Thanks for the RV ❤
Happy mom's day April❤

That is how professional our MAHALIMA ❤ they are brave enough to get out of their comfort zones.

They are literally being "seriously funny" for all the good reasons 😂💙

11:35 They actually did this without no cuts HAHAHA. You'll be amaze if you watch the dance practice
Just watch it again and again.. you'll like it especially when you watch several dance challenges of it..
The dance rehearsal is a must watch and so is the vlog. It just feels good to see the now.
April we have the same feeling at first. That's actually the point of the choreo. And then I watched it again and again....

It's fine girl, I think they focused more on showing their dance skills here. It sounded mainstream maybe because they wanted a song that can be easily digested by the masses esp in western countries since they wanted to widen their reach.
Both of them are DJ form China and USA. Both produced it.

Watch also their dance practice video they are good.

I didn’t like it at first tbh. But when I watched the MV, I now get the choreo they danced on tiktok lol
Wow!!!amazing 👍👍👍🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️👑👑👑😊
