"Countless" is the epouge track on SHINee's repackaged The Story of Light album from 2018 and this album is part of their 10th anniversary celebrations. "Good Evening," "I Want You" "Our Page" and "Countless" are all part of a three part release celebrating SHINee's 10th anniversary. So they released 3 mini albums with 5 songs each in their The Story of Light trilogy and they had 3 comebacks each 2 weeks apart to showcase their lead track on each of their albums. "Good Evening" and "All Day All Night" were their comeback tracks from Episode 1, " I Want You" and "Who Waits for Love" were their comebacks from Episode 2 and Episode 3 was "Our Page" and "Tonight". Their comeback lasted 6 weeks to represent the fact that this was SHINee's 6th "full length" album. At the end of the six weeks they released a special final MV to celebrate their anniversary and all they have been through over the past 10 years with their song "Countless." This comeback was their first comeback after Jonghyun died, so that is why there are only 4 members in this MV --Jonghyun died Dec.18, 2017. That is why this was such a poignant time in SHINee's history and why it is so important to fans. "Countless" also was SHINee's last group comeback before Onew, Key and Minho went off to serve in the military for 18 months. So, this album is all about Jonghyun and every song has something to do with what they went through in the 6 months leading up to this album release, etc. "Good Evening" is about SHINee's grieving process and the way the public sees them. "I want you" Is about learning to find happiness again and how they are personally dealing with everything that happened and "Our Page" is the members telling their story and what they want the world to know about them as a group and what they will remember and miss the most about Jonghyun, etc. And "Countless" is showing how SHINee has now come out on the other side and is now ready to start to move on. Blue flowers, when equated with a message usually stand for love and inspiration, and when presenting someone with blue flowers you are telling them you will stay loyal and passionate about them. In "Countless," I see SHINee presenting blue flowers to use Shawols saying, they are promising to stay true and loyal to us and to keep the passion they have as a group alive -- they are promising to keep on working hard to give us their best. Which is fitting because "Countless" was the song that helped to bring their message in their Story of Light album to a close and showed us that they will continue on and work even harder to continue theirs and Jonghyun's legacy, etc. Plus, pearl aqua/blue/green, is SHINee's fan color so there are always blue images and blue colors in their MVs. Blue has a lot of important messages when it comes to SHINee. Taemin's style of singing, especially in SHINee songs, is a lot like Jonghyun. And as you have seen with their songs, such as "Why So Serious?," Taemin fills in for Jonghyun whenever Jonghyun was unable to participate in a performance. And even today, Taemin often takes over the high notes and the parts that I think would probably have been Jonghyun's parts in their new songs, as you hear with "Countless." Jonghyun was the one that really took Taemin under his wing and helped him to become the singer that he is today. So, many think that Taemin's voice emulates Jonghyun because he is the one that taught Taemin to sing. Jonghyun always has been Taemin's biggest supporter and the one that rooted for him the hardest and loudest out of anyone. Fun fact: I think Key's short hairstyle for this comeback was his form or rebellion and his way of starting fresh and starting to move on after Jonghyun's death. He surprised us all by all of a sudden going on VLive and shaving his hair all off right before the start of their 10th anniversary promotions. However, it happened to work out well for him because he had to cut his hair short for the military anyway. So, he just gave himself and everyone almost a year to get used to his short haircut. :D
What you just experienced with the opposite ends of the spectrum between "Countless" and "Don't Call Me" is exactly what makes SHINee legends. And this is the reason why they are so highly respected, and why almost everyone in the industry who came after them cites them as one of their biggest influences and one of the reasons why they wanted to become a singer and dancer, etc. With this comeback, SHINee are just doing what we have all come to expect from them -- showing us something that has never been seen or heard before and starting a new trend. Nothing you hear from them will ever be like anything you have ever seen or heard before. They raise the bar even higher with every comeback. And that's what makes them SHINee. :D With every new song release, SHINee are expected to come out with a style and sound that is brand new, not only for them, but in the industry as a whole. And "Don't Call Me" is a perfect example of that. SHINee are one of the most iconic and influential groups. They are always setting trends, never following them. SHINee where designed to be SM's experimental boy group, so everything they do is meant to be the first and they are expected to set the trend. With every new song SHINee produces it's expected to be different than the last, so you will never hear the same style or sound from them in any of their songs, even on the same album, and yet, somehow it will always sound like SHINee. The industry looks to SHINee to show them what the next song style and dance trend will be. And it is said that within 3 months of SHINee releasing their new song and choreography, you will see that same sound and style being duplicated across the industry with every comeback to follow from both boy groups and girl groups. When SHINee does something the industry takes note and follows suit. SHINee has started the trend with almost everything -- with every one of their songs to their dances to clothing trends, to live performances, to the way Kpop is promoted -- there is almost nothing that can't be attributed to something SHINee has been involved in. You just discovered why SHINee still hold one of the top spots after more than 12 years in the industry. If you are impressed now, just wait until you go through their entire discography of songs and MVs. So far, they have 13 full-length albums (7 Korean albums and 6 Japanese albums), a multitude of mini albums, numerous OSTS, they each have solo songs and albums and there are hundreds of live performances that will absolutely leave you speechless with their talent. And it only gets more and more impressive as you follow them through their career. They have accomplished a lot in the past 12+ years and they are one of the groups that made Kpop what it is today. However, if you want to see where SHINee truly shines, you have to see their live performances. This year will be SHINee's 13th anniversary. So SHINee are part of the second generation of Kpop and yet they are younger than most everyone in their generation and are the same age or even younger than many other groups, such as EXO and BTS, etc. which are part of Kpop's third generation. SHINee debuted young and have the experience of seasoned veterans. When SHINee debuted in 2008, Onew (the leader and lead vocalist) was 18, Jonghyun (the main vocalist and songwriter) had just turned 18, Minho (the main rapper and sub-vocalist) and Key (lead vocalist and sub-rapper) were 16 and Taemin (Main dancer and lead vocalist) was 14, so now they are all in their late 20s and early 30s. (Onew just turned 31 in December.) SHINee are some of the most well respected artists in the industry. SHINee are one of the top groups that are known for the fact that they all can do it all. They are a group of 5 amazing vocalists, 5 impressive dancers, 5 visuals, 5 rappers, 5 top actors, and 5 of the most talented and unique voices in all of Kpop. Once you get to know their voices you will always be able to pick them out of a crowd just by the sound of their voice. Most fans will tell you we know who is speaking or singing within 1 second even with our eyes closed, with them standing in a crowd of screaming fans. Each of their voices are that unique -- there is no one with a voice like any of theirs. That is why they are "The Princes of Kpop". SHINee are known for their live vocals and amazing dancing. They are known as CD-quality singers because they sound just as good live, if not better, than they do recorded. SHINee always sings live. The ONLY thing they are not good at is lip syncing so they avoid it at all costs, so when you hear SHINee singing 95% of the time it will be live. It's a running joke between the fans and the members that when SHINee lip syncs you can tell because it's very obvious. Yes, over the years they have become better at lip syncing then they used to be, but now they have gained the reputation as the group that always sings live, so unless they are required to lip sync for a specific reason, SHINee will always sing live. They have trained their entire career to be able to sing live and always sound flawless while performing extremely complex choreography. SHINee set the standard. That is why they are so highly respected among their peers. It is literally referred to as the SHINee standard. It's the standard all other groups strive to reach. You really should check out some of their live concert performances because their stages are like none other. Their concerts last 3 to 4 hours straight and they perform nonstop and never sound out of tune or out of breath. They are also one of the best dancers in Kpop and they have some of the best harmonies you will ever hear. To get to know all the members of SHINee better, I recommend watching SHINee's individual member guides which were created by the same channel that created the "Very SHINee Group Guide." Taemin: ua-cam.com/video/hH5r88pfH9U/v-deo.html, Key: ua-cam.com/video/ADUrw9CeiEk/v-deo.html Onew: ua-cam.com/video/KK8rLkV5bk8/v-deo.html, and now, Minho: ua-cam.com/video/Ko9u6IjFzC0/v-deo.html, and Jonghyun: ua-cam.com/video/7EqwuWuZXcI/v-deo.html.
The member who sings that high note is Key. Despite being called one of the rappers of the group all SHINee members can sing, rap, dance, act LITERALLY THEY CAN DO EVERYTHING.
That's right. Part of SHINee's concept is: 5 Lead Singers 5 Lead Dancers 5 Visuals They're supposed to be so good, that any could be a sole lead in any other group. All have acted, with Minho being the one who has acted the most. Onew and Key won awards for their acting on their first acting jobs! I know Taemin has a movie/drama out there ("I TRUSTED YOU!") but I do not know the name. As for Jjong, I do not know if he had any acting work. If he did, someone PLEASE let me know! I would love to see it.
@@sharlenesmith5606 Well said! In Knowing Brothers Jjong said that he didn’t have an interest in acting so he didn’t. But he has acting experience with SNL Korea and they are hilarious. Taemin acted in Salamender Guru with his famous transition scene from a doctor. Final Life is the one where he speaks English mostly but unfortunately the quality of the entire drama is so bad even though the cast is amazing :(
@@seydanurselvi6248 😊Thank you! That episode of SHINee on SNL Korea was hilarious and is a must see! There is/was a version out there with English subs too.
Someone commented on my reaction saying they think this song was for the Saesangs... I'm like Ohhhhh that explains the savagery!! And honestly that makes me love this even more!! 😍😍😍💎
@@tali7177 True, but it could also be interpreted from a male perspective as well, since there are a lot more obsessed/delusional female sasaengs than there are male ones.
Shinee has done almost any concept out there. So the fact that this is so different from them is also the reason why it’s so... “Shinee”. And each comeback showcases a special aspect of each member. Shinee’s one of those groups where you can’t really compare them with one another because they’re so different, but they excel at what they do equally. I think you’d really love Key and Onew’s solo stuff. More specifically “Blue” by Onew and “I Wanna Be” by Key. Onew’s voice is absolutely gorgeous in it. And Key, much like Taemin, has such a distinct style when promoting his solo works. Minho also released a track on SM Station called “I’m Home”, which is also equally amazing and shows off his vocal color.
the thing about shinee is that they always go with a title track that pushes their boundaries. they aren't called trend setters for nothing. subbing for your shinee journey.
Minhos Visual Is freaking insane! He is one of the most handsome Kpop Idols back then even till now. Even with or without make up! Everytime he had guesting, they always ask minho why he is very handsome and goodlooking! Watch JESSI SHOWTERVIEW With Minho they keep saying Minho is very handsome and do he sees himself as that goodlooking :) ❤️🔥
If you wanna watch a guide you should watch ‘A very SHINee guide’. This guide is not that complicated so It’s perfect for new Shawols. Also same channel made guides for every member separately. A very SHINee intro: Onew A very SHINee intro: Jonghyun A very SHINee intro: Key A very SHINee intro: Minho A very SHINee intro: Taemin
One thing I love about SHINee is that every album brings a completely new concept, new sound, new fashion, new trends and things that are unexpected.... welcome to the fandom
I was excited for this comeback. They all looked so good! Taemin and Onew's vocals were stunning. Minho's raps are always *chef's kiss*. Kibum being an English King and serving us choreo, rap, vocals, and THE FITS.
Background voice you asked about in Countless, it was Key. I can totally understand you got goosebumps, because it still happens to me as well when listening to them. Don't call me is aggressive, but the rest of the album does not resemble the title track (like in most of their albums). SHINee's finally back, with a kick and a flawless album!!! 💎💎💎💎💎 Thank you for reacting and welcome in our SHINee World!
loved this comeback. it has kind of a classic feel to it and it's really different. the bass line and the repetitive sample throughout the song are eally addictive. the styling and the choreo were amazing and all the members had their moment. their album is amazing, i loved every single b-side, but "kind" has to be my favorite. so far is my album of the year, hahah sm really knows how to make good albums.
Jonghyun wrote to your favorite song “View”. He is Perfect Vocalist and Songwriter. You should react to Jonghyun “Y si fuerella” (eng sub.) please please. He wrote korean version of this song .His vocal is adoroble. SHINee is alway 5.
I don’t think the song is about sasengs. They mentioned in their press conference that their concept for the lyrics was to be “hysterical” and I’m getting the impression it’s more about a clingy and unwanted ex
THERE ARE MANY POSSESIVE PEOPLE,AND GETS A POINT,WHEN,YOU CAN'T STAND THEM,MAYBE WAS THAT,ALSO THERE ARE FANS THAT FOLLOW THEM EVERYWHERE,AND AFTER SO MANY YEARS THEY GET TIRED OF IT? OR CLINGY EX GF'S,THAT WANT THEM BACK?,WELL ONLY THEY KNOW LOL! I HAVE CHANGED BIAS TWICE AND IM NOT A SHAWOL SINCE THEY WERE FETUSES,ONLY 3 YRS A TRUE AND ONLY SHINee STAN,BUT I LOVE TAEMIN♥
Ahhh so happy you’re listening more of SHINee’s music Sir!🥰 please consider listening to “Married to the music” ( THE BOP OF BOPS), “1 of 1”, “Good Evening and “Excuse me Miss” live version 😊
This was a song that was originally supposed to be for BoA! But she went with Better instead, and then Minho was like "Hey we already bought it, wanna give it to us??" 😂 Also, please react to their concert performance of "Like a Fire"!! It's so good it makes me so happy
Those background vocals for Countless is my bias Key oh and all songs of SHINee revolve around the theme of love ...love for fans, for significant other, obsessive love, sexy love, flirty love, new love, deep love, loss of love, crazy love, love betrayal.. etc
I'm not a boy group stan, but it's always nice to see a 2nd generation group having a comeback. Sunmi (she was the bass player in Wonder Girls) released a new song called "Tail". You should react to some Sunmi songs. I suggest to react to "24 Hours" and "Full Moon" first, she released these songs when she was in JYP. After Wonder Girls disbandment she joined a new company and she released "Gashina" and "Heroine" and they were produced by Teddy (Blackpink main composer). All the songs she released after "Heroine" are composed by herself, so you can really see an evolution in here music. "Borderline" is probably one of my favourite, she wrote this song about her BPD (borderline personality disorder)
I hadn’t seen Countless before, it’s so sweet. I love Key’s ‘tude on Don’t Call Me, and their harmonies are so great even though the beats are so hard. I want that bird feather hat, too.
DONT CALL ME IS A BOPPPP but I think the next shinee songs If you want to react to them in the same video I think their older songs Juliette & love like oxygen would be great, no whiplash included with those two haha
Yay another rabbit hole to go down! I’m enjoying your discovery of Shinee too! I’m loving them even more and hearing songs I hadn’t heard before thanks to you!✨
Just to let you know there is a solo album Key dropped before enlisting to the military called "Face" and there are some mvs for the album. Also he did a repackage of the album as well. He did a Japanese album too. There is also a live performance of "Imagine" an all English song that he dropped while they did the Ringtone comeback as well as "Marry You" as a group performance and his falsetto at the end ugh... stunning and if you have not seen "Born To Shine" live English solo by Key then you have to... him with that red hair, shirtless harness over his chest and a whip in hand come on don't pass up on that performance!!!
I think this new song shows a pattern of SM’s producers and artists. It’s more like a new hip-hop song than SHINee did before. By the way, appreciate it for the transition and bass line
SNSD: Stanned EXO: Stanned Red Velvet: Stanned NCT: Stanned And now you’ve finally decided to stan Shinee. You’re already getting into Aespa stuff. Now all we need is for you to check out Boa, TVXQ, Super Junior, and more F(x) and you’ll be a full and certified SM stan.
SHINee is back !! THE LEGEND IS BACK! Kings vocals are back !! It was amazing SHINee💞💎💎💎💎💎 Don't call me SHINee They proved once again that they can make any style and show it in their own way
InternetsNathan has a video called "What happened to Shinee" that I'd recommend as a starter guide. It doesnt go into detail much and doesn't talk a lot about the individual members he goes over their history and it isn't that long. More in-depth guides are a must after that though. Happy to see you're joining us!
@@SandraFernandezMX they are💖 I referred to them as that because that's the term a lot of articles/people use for them. But I agree completely😌 they are legends
"This is so different from the other songs i heard" lol as someone on tt said: "this is not the typical SHINee sound" IS he typical SHINee sound 😂 I can't wait till u chck out Key solos.. they all have amazing solos (minho has a station, onew, taemin -as u know- and Jonghyun have actual albums) but since u love key so much smth tells me ur gonna love his solo songs ;)
Shinee is always unique and different every their comeback. Shinee is contemporary group. They want to show that they fit into any music or concept. That's why, I'm always excited to look forward to their comeback, i'll recomend to watch SHINee TELL ME WHAT TO DO (mix EDM music), 1 OF 1 (90s era). 💎💎💎💎💎
Countless is a love song for shawols! And while many people think DCM is something super new for SHINee, and yes, it is their first hip hop track, they've done really really strong songs before - Alive, Trigger (live), Up and Down - this isn't out of their wheelhouse at all. I think it was Andreas Odberg who said he loves to write for SHINee because they can do whatever you throw at them.
You would love Onew and Key's solo stuff, Onew's really focuses on his vocals! I'd recommend Blue & Shine On You by him and One of Those Nights & I Wanna Be from Key to start! Not to mention all of their live performances like Onew doing Nessun Dorma
If he wears that shirtless outfit on stage, I think I'm gonna lose it! 🤣 Although he kind of did already on Odd Eye Inkigayo performance with one button holding his blazer!! @Sir Austin Please react to that along with Prism.
I’ve always loved all of Shinee but Onew has been my first real bias in the kpop world. I used to be half obsessed as a teenager and now I just get way too giddy every time someone else points him out and compliments him. He needs more of that ❤️
Please listen to Onew’s solo song Blue... it’s breathtakingly beautiful! Onew is hands down one of the best vocalists on the industry and he doesn’t get enough credit♥️
Hey, another Key fan (Lockets)! You really reacted to the most contrasting SHINee songs out there. These songs display the versatility of this group and keep fans on the edge of their seats. SHINee makes sure we understand that we will never know what to expect, other than we know it will be great! SHINee could wear paper bag outfits and make them look chic! 😁
Yessss countless is a sweet love song! And I would like to recommend their most romantic series of song : replay (2008)- love sick (2015) - marry you (2021). Please check it out with lyrics because the lyrics of each song are connected! Love your reaction as usual, looking forward to more reaction of SHINee and welcome to SHINee world! 💖
Ive missed them soooo much😂im so happy that their back😁😁😂 Can you please react to Keys Born to Shine live? Its absolutely amazeing and just shows how Kibum(and honestly Shinee in general)is literally standing above the entire kpop industry 😂😂😂😂😁😊😊 Thank you so much for your reactions!!!💜💜💜😁😁😊😊😊😊😊😊💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Actually as a Shawol...this seems like SHINee style. They are contemporary but at the same time when it comes to harmonizing it sounds so...well...SHINee...I've listen to all their songs and I'm not surprised this is a bop
At first I thought Minhos line was "Pick up all your trash" and I was like yeah! Let's keep this planet clean!
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹😹👍
Now i cant unheard it....
I used to HATE that part of the song, and now it's my favorite part haaha
I wheezed 🤣
"i mean you could just change your number" IM CACKLINGHFLIHSJHFJD
TAEYEON: What do I call you
EXO: Call me baby
SHINEE: Don't call me
Me: 💩 okay
LMAO I can't- 😂
Hilarious
Me: *Press your number*
SHINee: Can I get your number?
Then
SHINee: Don't call me!
Me: Dudes, you're giving me mixed messages here! 😆
I think you should listen to Onew’s solo. His voice is really sweet, beautiful and even strong. So please react to Blue and Rainy blue.
Yasss
Yes, Please 🙏
yeeeeess yeees
also, onew singing opera... nessun dorma

I think the reason why key had short hair at that time was because he was cast in a movie... I totally forgot the name of the movie

Yes, over the years they have become better at lip syncing then they used to be, but now they have gained the reputation as the group that always sings live, so unless they are required to lip sync for a specific reason, SHINee will always sing live. They have trained their entire career to be able to sing live and always sound flawless while performing extremely complex choreography. SHINee set the standard. That is why they are so highly respected among their peers. It is literally referred to as the SHINee standard. It's the standard all other groups strive to reach.
You really should check out some of their live concert performances because their stages are like none other. Their concerts last 3 to 4 hours straight and they perform nonstop and never sound out of tune or out of breath. They are also one of the best dancers in Kpop and they have some of the best harmonies you will ever hear.
To get to know all the members of SHINee better, I recommend watching SHINee's individual member guides which were created by the same channel that created the "Very SHINee Group Guide." Taemin: ua-cam.com/video/hH5r88pfH9U/v-deo.html, Key: ua-cam.com/video/ADUrw9CeiEk/v-deo.html Onew: ua-cam.com/video/KK8rLkV5bk8/v-deo.html, and now, Minho: ua-cam.com/video/Ko9u6IjFzC0/v-deo.html, and Jonghyun: ua-cam.com/video/7EqwuWuZXcI/v-deo.html.
The member who sings that high note is Key. Despite being called one of the rappers of the group all SHINee members can sing, rap, dance, act LITERALLY THEY CAN DO EVERYTHING.
That's right. Part of SHINee's concept is:
5 Lead Singers
5 Lead Dancers
5 Visuals
They're supposed to be so good, that any could be a sole lead in any other group. All have acted, with Minho being the one who has acted the most. Onew and Key won awards for their acting on their first acting jobs! I know Taemin has a movie/drama out there ("I TRUSTED YOU!") but I do not know the name. As for Jjong, I do not know if he had any acting work. If he did, someone PLEASE let me know! I would love to see it.
@@sharlenesmith5606 Well said! In Knowing Brothers Jjong said that he didn’t have an interest in acting so he didn’t. But he has acting experience with SNL Korea and they are hilarious. Taemin acted in Salamender Guru with his famous transition scene from a doctor. Final Life is the one where he speaks English mostly but unfortunately the quality of the entire drama is so bad even though the cast is amazing :(
@@seydanurselvi6248 😊Thank you!
That episode of SHINee on SNL Korea was hilarious and is a must see! There is/was a version out there with English subs too.
@3:55 That’s KEY of course~ (edit: singing the ad libs)
Someone commented on my reaction saying they think this song was for the Saesangs... I'm like Ohhhhh that explains the savagery!! And honestly that makes me love this even more!! 😍😍😍💎
Makes sense! 😂
Hi.😁🤗💟
This is TOTALLY a song for the sasaengs out there😂
this song was made for Boa and she thought it was a better match with a group. For me the lyrics make more sense from the female perspective.
@@tali7177 True, but it could also be interpreted from a male perspective as well, since there are a lot more obsessed/delusional female sasaengs than there are male ones.
Shinee has done almost any concept out there. So the fact that this is so different from them is also the reason why it’s so... “Shinee”. And each comeback showcases a special aspect of each member. Shinee’s one of those groups where you can’t really compare them with one another because they’re so different, but they excel at what they do equally.
I think you’d really love Key and Onew’s solo stuff. More specifically “Blue” by Onew and “I Wanna Be” by Key. Onew’s voice is absolutely gorgeous in it. And Key, much like Taemin, has such a distinct style when promoting his solo works. Minho also released a track on SM Station called “I’m Home”, which is also equally amazing and shows off his vocal color.
SHINee’s BACK 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 say with me guys : SHINee’s BACK
SHINee IS BACK,BACK,BACK,BACK,BACK,FINALLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!♥
When I saw you did Countless first.. m like.. woah.. he’s coming from Countless.. to Don’t Call Me??!!
Watch “A Very Shinee Guide”
By " Very Swank "!
the thing about shinee is that they always go with a title track that pushes their boundaries. they aren't called trend setters for nothing. subbing for your shinee journey.
Minhos Visual Is freaking insane! He is one of the most handsome Kpop Idols back then even till now. Even with or without make up! Everytime he had guesting, they always ask minho why he is very handsome and goodlooking! Watch JESSI SHOWTERVIEW With Minho they keep saying Minho is very handsome and do he sees himself as that goodlooking :) ❤️🔥
Believe me he looks more handsome in person
I'd begun to seriously think we'd never get SHINee again. I'm so happy i could flap my arms to the moon.
The way Onew biased wrecked me so hard with this comeback 😩 Your facial expressions when he popped up LOL!
If you wanna watch a guide you should watch ‘A very SHINee guide’. This guide is not that complicated so It’s perfect for new Shawols. Also same channel made guides for every member separately.
A very SHINee intro: Onew
A very SHINee intro: Jonghyun
A very SHINee intro: Key
A very SHINee intro: Minho
A very SHINee intro: Taemin
One thing I love about SHINee is that every album brings a completely new concept, new sound, new fashion, new trends and things that are unexpected.... welcome to the fandom
I was excited for this comeback. They all looked so good! Taemin and Onew's vocals were stunning. Minho's raps are always *chef's kiss*. Kibum being an English King and serving us choreo, rap, vocals, and THE FITS.
"A Very Shinee Guide" by Very Swank is a great guide! It was made while they were in the military so it's up to date.
Background voice you asked about in Countless, it was Key. I can totally understand you got goosebumps, because it still happens to me as well when listening to them. Don't call me is aggressive, but the rest of the album does not resemble the title track (like in most of their albums).
SHINee's finally back, with a kick and a flawless album!!!
💎💎💎💎💎
Thank you for reacting and welcome in our SHINee World!
Onew became my Top bias in Shinee during "Why so serious"
You should react to that and "Everybody"
PLEASE "EVERYBODY" IM YOUR BOY SPECIAL EDITION,TOKIO DOME.THE BEST!
loved this comeback. it has kind of a classic feel to it and it's really different. the bass line and the repetitive sample throughout the song are eally addictive. the styling and the choreo were amazing and all the members had their moment. their album is amazing, i loved every single b-side, but "kind" has to be my favorite. so far is my album of the year, hahah sm really knows how to make good albums.
Jonghyun wrote to your favorite song “View”. He is Perfect Vocalist and Songwriter. You should react to Jonghyun “Y si fuerella” (eng sub.) please please. He wrote korean version of this song .His vocal is adoroble.
SHINee is alway 5.
Yes!yes!my favourite...y si fuerra ella@hyeya by Jonghyun
I don’t think the song is about sasengs. They mentioned in their press conference that their concept for the lyrics was to be “hysterical” and I’m getting the impression it’s more about a clingy and unwanted ex
I agree! this song was made for Boa and she thought it was a better match with a group.
For me the lyrics make more sense from the female perspective.
THERE ARE MANY POSSESIVE PEOPLE,AND GETS A POINT,WHEN,YOU CAN'T STAND THEM,MAYBE WAS THAT,ALSO THERE ARE FANS THAT FOLLOW THEM EVERYWHERE,AND AFTER SO MANY YEARS THEY GET TIRED OF IT? OR CLINGY EX GF'S,THAT WANT THEM BACK?,WELL ONLY THEY KNOW LOL! I HAVE CHANGED BIAS TWICE AND IM NOT A SHAWOL SINCE THEY WERE FETUSES,ONLY 3 YRS A TRUE AND ONLY SHINee STAN,BUT I LOVE TAEMIN♥
Ahhh so happy you’re listening more of SHINee’s music Sir!🥰 please consider listening to “Married to the music” ( THE BOP OF BOPS), “1 of 1”, “Good Evening and “Excuse me Miss” live version 😊
I know Jonghyun is so proud of them watching from above. You did it boys!
💎💎👼💎💎
This was a song that was originally supposed to be for BoA! But she went with Better instead, and then Minho was like "Hey we already bought it, wanna give it to us??" 😂
Also, please react to their concert performance of "Like a Fire"!! It's so good it makes me so happy
And Evil,stranger,jojo,arggh so many good song from them..i prefer their live performance...excuse me miss too,an encore too...😁😁
ahh i love their like a fire performance! I always watch it to put me in a good mood instantly
Those background vocals for Countless is my bias Key oh and all songs of SHINee revolve around the theme of love ...love for fans, for significant other, obsessive love, sexy love, flirty love, new love, deep love, loss of love, crazy love, love betrayal.. etc
Shinee's Back ~
the backing vocals in countless that you were talking about sir, is key!
Wooow thank you. Welcome to the SHINee World
Im waiting you reacting to shinee - excuse me miss live performance! 💕
BRING WATER!
Yessss! SHINee si back! This álbum is perfect. 💎✨
The new album is amazing!!! You need to listen it
I'm not a boy group stan, but it's always nice to see a 2nd generation group having a comeback.
Sunmi (she was the bass player in Wonder Girls) released a new song called "Tail". You should react to some Sunmi songs. I suggest to react to "24 Hours" and "Full Moon" first, she released these songs when she was in JYP. After Wonder Girls disbandment she joined a new company and she released "Gashina" and "Heroine" and they were produced by Teddy (Blackpink main composer). All the songs she released after "Heroine" are composed by herself, so you can really see an evolution in here music. "Borderline" is probably one of my favourite, she wrote this song about her BPD (borderline personality disorder)
I hadn’t seen Countless before, it’s so sweet. I love Key’s ‘tude on Don’t Call Me, and their harmonies are so great even though the beats are so hard. I want that bird feather hat, too.
SM Artists do not disappoint us. Periodt.
Those backing vocals you talked about in countless were your current bias key, congrats on being a fellow locket!
omg yesss welcome officially to the SHINee World✨
Austin, thank you so much for reacting to SHINee
The contrast between countless and don’t call me 😆
KING SHINEE
Omg yessss! I'm so happy that you gonna stan SHINee
HE STANS A LOT OF GROUP,AND ANY NEW ONE,,HE CHANGES BIAS HAHAHAHAHA
Yes album reaction!!! SHINee's albums are great. And this one is very lit.
their live performances are by far my favourite
YAY SHINee
Thankyou for reacting!! You have to heard shinee song in this album!! So catchy! I love kiss kiss, attention and body rhytm!!
DONT CALL ME IS A BOPPPP but I think the next shinee songs If you want to react to them in the same video I think their older songs Juliette & love like oxygen would be great, no whiplash included with those two haha
Yay another rabbit hole to go down! I’m enjoying your discovery of Shinee too! I’m loving them even more and hearing songs I hadn’t heard before thanks to you!✨
“You could just change your phone number.” LMAO
AS IF EVERYONE KNOWS THEIR NUMBER TF?
'
Yes!!!! Shinee....
The nickname for SHINee is Prince Of KPOP.
SHINee's BACK!
NOT ANYMORE,THEY ARE KINGS,AND DESERVE IT,JUST CALL THEM SHINee :)
@@SandraFernandezMX oh ok, i'm sorry^^
Shinee proving why they are the Kings & coming for us at the same time.
Can't wait till you watch the guides😊
The lyrics are probably for those sasaeng fans who want to invade their privacy. Thank you Sir Austin. Love your reactions.
Just to let you know there is a solo album Key dropped before enlisting to the military called "Face" and there are some mvs for the album. Also he did a repackage of the album as well. He did a Japanese album too. There is also a live performance of "Imagine" an all English song that he dropped while they did the Ringtone comeback as well as "Marry You" as a group performance and his falsetto at the end ugh... stunning and if you have not seen "Born To Shine" live English solo by Key then you have to... him with that red hair, shirtless harness over his chest and a whip in hand come on don't pass up on that performance!!!
I think this new song shows a pattern of SM’s producers and artists. It’s more like a new hip-hop song than SHINee did before. By the way, appreciate it for the transition and bass line
Onew's voice ❤️❤️❤️
Lool the way everyone talks about how dramatic they are in Don't Call Me 🤣
I love that you're becoming a complete SM stan
Sir Austin please check out Onew's rendition of the song Rainy Blue where Taemin is playing the piano 😊
SNSD: Stanned
EXO: Stanned
Red Velvet: Stanned
NCT: Stanned
And now you’ve finally decided to stan Shinee. You’re already getting into Aespa stuff. Now all we need is for you to check out Boa, TVXQ, Super Junior, and more F(x) and you’ll be a full and certified SM stan.
Not gonna lie, that onew bit got me and I spit some my water out😂😂
AWWW I DIDN'T NOTICE,WHAT BIT?PLS TELL ME!♥
@@SandraFernandezMX Hi there! It was at 00:42 seconds mark!
SHINee is back!!!
SHINee is back !! THE LEGEND IS BACK! Kings vocals are back !!
It was amazing
SHINee💞💎💎💎💎💎
Don't call me
SHINee
They proved once again that they can make any style and show it in their own way
I love my boys so much, since 2008...I was 15 yo
InternetsNathan has a video called "What happened to Shinee" that I'd recommend as a starter guide. It doesnt go into detail much and doesn't talk a lot about the individual members he goes over their history and it isn't that long. More in-depth guides are a must after that though. Happy to see you're joining us!
I’m glad that SHINee’s back!!🥺😭
i’m so happy you love them!!
0:36 kyungsoo and kibum being our biases 🤝
THE PRINCES OF KPOP ARE BACK
FOR YOU,TO ALL OF US THEY ARE THE KINGS,FOR A COUNTLESS OF REASONS♥
@@SandraFernandezMX they are💖 I referred to them as that because that's the term a lot of articles/people use for them. But I agree completely😌 they are legends
I have a confession to make, I made an entire essay using SHINee's lyrics LOL I hope my teacher isn't a shawol HAHAHAHHAHA
key biases where you at? but i honestly loved this comeback!
"This is so different from the other songs i heard" lol as someone on tt said: "this is not the typical SHINee sound" IS he typical SHINee sound 😂 I can't wait till u chck out Key solos.. they all have amazing solos (minho has a station, onew, taemin -as u know- and Jonghyun have actual albums) but since u love key so much smth tells me ur gonna love his solo songs ;)
Shinee is always unique and different every their comeback. Shinee is contemporary group. They want to show that they fit into any music or concept. That's why, I'm always excited to look forward to their comeback, i'll recomend to watch SHINee TELL ME WHAT TO DO (mix EDM music), 1 OF 1 (90s era). 💎💎💎💎💎
Key had a hand in the outfit choices
Countless is a love song for shawols! And while many people think DCM is something super new for SHINee, and yes, it is their first hip hop track, they've done really really strong songs before - Alive, Trigger (live), Up and Down - this isn't out of their wheelhouse at all. I think it was Andreas Odberg who said he loves to write for SHINee because they can do whatever you throw at them.
You would love Onew and Key's solo stuff, Onew's really focuses on his vocals! I'd recommend Blue & Shine On You by him and One of Those Nights & I Wanna Be from Key to start! Not to mention all of their live performances like Onew doing Nessun Dorma
I’m very happy with this comeback, finally SHINee’s back ✨ Thanks for react ✨❤️
As a fellow Key bias, can I recommend his live performance of "Born To Shine"? I think you'd enjoy it greatly.
Minho got out from the military and chose to be a total daddy.
Facts
I didn't even notice Minho had his shirt open until someone mentioned it! I'm still trying to figure out the story line...
If he wears that shirtless outfit on stage, I think I'm gonna lose it! 🤣 Although he kind of did already on Odd Eye Inkigayo performance with one button holding his blazer!! @Sir Austin Please react to that along with Prism.
@@angelzidane20 lol, try Dynamite at SWC4
I’ve always loved all of Shinee but Onew has been my first real bias in the kpop world. I used to be half obsessed as a teenager and now I just get way too giddy every time someone else points him out and compliments him. He needs more of that ❤️
Please listen to Onew’s solo song Blue... it’s breathtakingly beautiful! Onew is hands down one of the best vocalists on the industry and he doesn’t get enough credit♥️
Yea finally
you're gonna LOVE Shinee's 'Married to the Music'!!
SHINEE IS BACK!!!!!!
The new song is fire And the new album is great!! I Agree with you countless is very sweet song 🎶
"Romantic" is best song from back to debut days...hope you like it..lyrics are strong and full of love
Tbh countless makes me emotional too. It's so sweet!
"You could just change ur phone number"🤣🤣🤣
you will love onew's vocal. he sing nessun dorma
Hey, another Key fan (Lockets)! You really reacted to the most contrasting SHINee songs out there. These songs display the versatility of this group and keep fans on the edge of their seats. SHINee makes sure we understand that we will never know what to expect, other than we know it will be great! SHINee could wear paper bag outfits and make them look chic! 😁
don't call me definitely feels very sm-like but they still put their own twist on it and it's one of my favorite shinee comebacks!
I'm still waiting for you reaction to Marry You, I know that piece of art will blow your mind.
DIDN'T HE ALREADY? CHECK HIS VIDEOS,I THINK HE DID!
@@SandraFernandezMX I check again and no.
Yessss countless is a sweet love song! And I would like to recommend their most romantic series of song : replay (2008)- love sick (2015) - marry you (2021). Please check it out with lyrics because the lyrics of each song are connected!
Love your reaction as usual, looking forward to more reaction of SHINee and welcome to SHINee world! 💖
Ive missed them soooo much😂im so happy that their back😁😁😂 Can you please react to Keys Born to Shine live? Its absolutely amazeing and just shows how Kibum(and honestly Shinee in general)is literally standing above the entire kpop industry 😂😂😂😂😁😊😊
Thank you so much for your reactions!!!💜💜💜😁😁😊😊😊😊😊😊💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Actually as a Shawol...this seems like SHINee style. They are contemporary but at the same time when it comes to harmonizing it sounds so...well...SHINee...I've listen to all their songs and I'm not surprised this is a bop
Please react to Good Evening and Our Page, they are part of the same Era as Countless and I Want You
