"there is just something special about a group that produces their own music"
yes. exactly.
It's special, weird, addictive, unique, confusing but yet you love the song!! That's SKZ genre!
changbin said in one of their behind contents that the budget for this music video tripled/quadrupled from their previous one, which is goddamn insane to me considering how high-quality their previous videos already are compared to the rest in the kpop scene
i can't wait for pd to lose their shit during the listening party because that album is one hell of a ride!
@@vixxexo6855I guess it's a difference of opinion, I love the chorus I think it's very catchy and the beat change and transition into the old school hip hop section is my favourite part of the song.
@@vixxexo6855 I don't think the song is bad, but Hall of Fame, ITEM and Super Bowl are better tho
@@vixxexo6855 I respect your opinion because not everyone likes the song or some parts but the album is really good tbh!
@@vixxexo6855interesting, one man's trash really is another man's treasure. those reasons are exactly why i like the song, the beat switch to an old school hiphop style really hooked me and i still love listening to it until now.
it might explain the octopus, as PD said. like i wonder if Stray Kids + the director was like "what are we gonna do with all this extra money!?", and someone just decided "LET'S GET A CGI OCTOPUS?" It felt so apt when the octopus was hurled at the audience just as they sang "feeling extra". Can't get more extra than that CGI octopus that had basically no plot purpose to it.
just a fun fact for you pd but 5 star is in the top spot for the most preordered album in all of kpop! coming in with almost 5 million preorders!!
It did reach over 5 million preorders actually! (5.13 mil)
Holy crap that's awesome!!!
Bagaimana video ini baru muncul sehari yang lalu, tapi komennya sudah dari 2 minggu yang lalu?
Correction: it's over 5milion now 😁😁😁
more than Map of the Soul is so fcking insane to me
I want to be as unbothered as Seungmin dancing while Chaos is happening behind him. My favorite scene.
I love your reaction to Felix's pre-chorus part. It sounded familiar to me as well in the beginning until I realized that it's literally sampling "twinkle twinkle little star"
Me too thats why that line felt like i know it by heart because we freakin mastered it during childhood lmao
WTF I just realized that 🤯
Bang Chan rarely ever gives himself the killing part or any other stand out part, even in this song, his part wasn't those either but he just radiates! He stood out (to me) because he stood out (periodt). I think that's why his vocals and presence were usually just so overlooked, I wish he would give himself those moments, but we know he's not gonna do that, especially in regards of his kids. I'm so happy you acknowledged him in this reaction 🥰
This is truly my favourite stray kids comeback to date. They always out do themselves but this time they took it to a level I couldn't have even imagined!
true, its so good. i recently just saw someone say s class is the worst song of the year. which was just???? to me. it was obvious that there were just a skz hater who doesnt like their sound, /they even said skz doesnt make good muisc, its obvcause they cant handle loud exiting music. and just like bland things. anyway skz music is so good ,and this song is a bop
@@manale9366 I mean it's an incredible comeback no doubt , but most of the stans are overrating the hell out of the song . I mean we get it but y'all need to calm tf down.
@@jasonremy8688 its good ass song so of course were gonna hype it tf outt??
@@jasonremy8688 why would someone who stans a group not hype up the title track? u seem a little bitter to me.
@@sarahrose4945 nah its fine u can hype it up but u say it's song of the year , give me whatever crack these stans are smoking , no one will take y'all seriously good luck with that.
"There is nothing more SKZ than that chorus" exactly my thoughts again, the second I heard it
I immediately saw ur reaction and was like "THIS BITCH IS NOT READY FOR THIS" FHAHSHSU
😂😂😂
And he ain’t 😂
@@disdellilah *they
They are the first and only kpop group to have ever filmed an mv on the Han River! That’s where the scenes on the boat and the opening was filmed!
No other kpop group did it there?
@@benndarayta9156 not on the actual river itself no. skz are the first
you noticed how much skz improved artistically each cb but last time I've seen you this HYPED during my pace and this S-Class even more amp-ed. PD really GETS IT and thats on sexy brains ppl!
The full stank face for the first reaction of the MV was a PERFECT representation of what my reaction was. Pretty sure I blacked out, too 🤣
Edit: THANK YOU for the lee know appreciation because he absolutely cut me in half in this MV. All of them brought 11/10 but lee know just buried me alive
I love that Stray Kids produce their own music, but more than that, i love that, by producing their own music, they take the opportunity to differentiate themselves every time. Lots of groups at this point produce, but so much of it sounds like an attempt to fit into what is trendy or what's mainstream. Stray Kids consistently look at the trends and then do the opposite.
I was shook when i realized they were dancing in a _garbage truck_ and the stuff that freezes around Seugmin's big scene is literally trash. The odd ones out indeed!
now I get it 😮
oh my gosh, fr, they are literally taking out the trash, monsters and what nots hahaha
Lee Know appreciation 👏👏❤ but honestly all of them stepped up their game so much. It's so crazy how they keep outdoing themselves again and AGAIN! wild
Thanks so much for the reaction and commentary ❤
literally no one in the world has such cool MVs.... like it makes me look forward to what they're gonna come out with next
PD’s reaction to Chan’s ”뭐“ is literally every stay’s reaction when they first saw it as a Chan bias I can confirm I did burst into flames and my whole being ascended like god I wish we got more of that
Did no one mention that opening scene is filmed on a barge on the Han River! The entire MV took 4 days to film. The budget is budgeting
I legit never notice the hyunjin pulling us in with the grappling hook 😭 that's how insanely good this entire music video is
Stray kids are just so creative. Like I just don’t understand how they and their team (of course) does it. I just feel like they have an abondance of creativity and just have fun with it which I feel like is sometimes a little lost in kpop in the sense that they try so hard to come out with something as fast as possible
that "bang chan" when he said "what?", an accurate representation of how we were when we watched this for the first time.
so excited to finally see this video is here! i binge watched previous stray kids breakdowns this last week, knowing you would be floored when you finally got to to s-class. i appreciate it so much since you've seen their progression over the last 5 years and understand the work that goes into their visual element. good to see you back, PD. hope you're doing much better!
im sure someone else already mentioned it but the top line is totally a reference to twinkle twinkle little star, and that's why it sounds so familiar and playful (and obviously the lyrics are a reference too lol) they absolutely never miss
truly this whole comeback has been insanely good.
can't wait for your listening party to the album!
“They shoot movies on these cameras”. I think they just did 👀
Something I love about Lee Know’s dancing is he makes it look effortless. Even the most difficult footwork, LK makes it look like freaking hopscotch.
The pre-chorus sample melody is from Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star! Awesome.🔥💯
I KNEW IT SOUNDED FAMILIAR!!
It has the same “up above the world so high” lyrics but the melody sounds different. I can’t figure what it sounds like 😩😭😂
omggg that's true so cool
I didn't realize. And when I try to sing TTLS the melody from BabyBus is the one playing inside my head and I became even more confused. It really is like 2 different things.
I love the production team built sets, not using all CGI. I love the trademark SKZ sound. I love how each member shines in the MV. I love the whole album. I am in awe of 3racha’s production skill and ability to compose brain tickling soundscape.
There’s a lot of talk about K-pop’s one hit wonders (from the latest Fifty Fifty lawsuits). Stray Kids and some 2nd and 3rd gen groups built their career one comeback at a time, to refine image, sound, and delivery over time. I will never call SKZ one hit wonder because every era they grew and got better in every aspect. The CD sales, concert attendance, and brand endorsements got bigger, the MVs got bigger budget, the wardrobe is out of this world, our boys are getting better in what they do. I am beyond proud of these guys watching them from predebut.
YESSSS lee know's performance in this was crazy im so happy you noticed!! totally agree
Every song on this new album is title track worthy. Skz is insane. No one outdoes them. They really are the "Topline" for me.
The m/v and the actual song are just on another level. Idk how Stray Kids do it at this point. They are magicians, and I am happily along for the ride.
19:30 I really love this bit about Bang Chan: I'm really glad that he dosen't try to 'hide' anymore, he has a lot of talent and deserves to have his shining moments like everyone else!
(some people in the fandom are convonced that 3racha should be satisfied with their producing work and don't claim key parts of the song or even vocal lines)
Those ones are not part of Stay, they are Leaves... and should.. 🖖🏽
13:28 see I never even noticed the air rushing out the window. Stray kids love their art and put everything into making it the best possible. Those little details show their intense passion.
Stray Kids continue to outdo themselves. 4th Gen Leaders for real!
true
REAL
Listening party PLEASE!
Your reactions are always so incredibly sincere. It's just awesome know that I'm not the only one with the "OH SHIT" reactions to Stray Kids whenever they level up!
Thank you for validating my feelings, pd!
Finally someone recognizing the Minho's dance 🥹❤️
LOVING THE LEE KNOW PRAISE HERE
I really like how you diligently react to skz from the very beginning of their debut till now and I always end up waiting for your opinion on their latest comebacks. what you said about this song is very skz, is exactly what I thought when s-class first came out, I can't help but feel extremely proud of skz bcs this whole album I can really feel how they've grown musically. it's waay more polished, like that's a huge amount of improvement but still have a distinct style only skz have and can pull off. I always think skz always successfully exceeded my expectation every comeback, but this? this one is different. it's like they're really establishing themselves that they're THE LEADER. they're involved so much in everything they put out, their music got finer, and we're here for it. it's a shame they only had little time promoting this on music shows :(
PD being a leeknower is sooo relatable 😆
the mv is so insane, and i love the behind vids where you can see their use of practical effects, lighting, explosions etc. but with the album listening i am so excited to watch you hear their growth in music production. like even compared to maxident, it is INSANE how clean their sound is, and how stray kids it still manages to be. like it's absolutely mental and i just can't wait
I love your reaction! Especially because you get the absolute genius of the chorus of this song! For us westerners, this goes over our heads a lot of times but to hear the genius of their lyrics and their mastery of word play appreciated and explained is really important for international Stay so thank you so much!
We need more reactors like you that deliver the nuances of lyrics and background. We appreciate you!
My jaw dropped at the PD 13/10 but of course it was earned those opening shots on the river and the video quality solidified that, I would really love to see you react to the Making videos for the MV if you got the chance to check it out!
Also remembering the maxident listening party where you literally said Stray Kids had ascended to S-Class, and here they are the next comeback...👀
I swear JYP has the best and creative out of the world MV Video editors of all company ngl
PD, your reaction was so damn meaningful. You made me tear up with your deep recognition of the artistry and impact of this title track MV. I knew we'd get this reaction when you were back, but this was still beyond what I could have expected.
I CANNOT wait for you to react to the rest of the album. Hall of Fame and Item are my favorites, but I've listened to the entire album over and over
Lee know shines as always...🐰🤍thanks you for admiring him so much❤️🔥
yeah skz really outdone themselves with 5 stars. for me from the trailer, the mv, the title track and all the songs in the album are so well done, so stray kids, so good.
25:29 totally agreed. The opening feels like a hero landing. So powerful and very "thunderous". You know they will struck you down after that opening 😂
S-class MV is my favourite so far, surpassing Gods Menu.
We have to trust and thank Mr Producer Bang Jae Yop for his creative mind.
and this video is also my favourite reaction video for this comeback season. nice!
the moment I saw the first transition with fireworks and huge glass wall shattering I thought of Doctor Strange and all the crazy Marvel effects... like maaan the mv feels like hella expensive, visualy fcking pleasing superhero action movie
the more I was into the mv the more shooketh I was
They are so special, seeing them grow was the most amazing thing I ever witnessed
YOUR REACTION IS SO REAL I WAS ALSO SO MINDBLOWN WHEN I FIRST WATCHED THE MV ASKDJFLAJFKLSA
SOTY and ALOTY is debatable for me. There are lots of great contenders this year considering also the criteria set by the year end shows (even tho personally I really like the whole 5-star Album and they deserved an award for that). But I am so desperate and hopeful for S-Class MV to get the best MV award. If only views are not a factor, I do really believe they deserved an award for the quality the whole team put out for this one. Stray Kids' MVs always match the energy of their music and I am really impressed by that. It is hard to make a music video for a song like S-class, so to be able to capture the whole spirit of the song is truly admirable. The MV made me enjoy the music more; the beat switch, sudden pause, the adlibs, the whistle followed by the high energy intro of changbin then the slow verse of hyunjin, the back-to back rap matched with that quick change of scenes, even the silence at the end. The visuals helped me appreciate all those little things from the song. Just like what Lee know said, you should listen to S-class while watching the MV. You can't separate the one from the other. Only few MVs made me feel what I felt while watching S-class.
PS, I'm not sure what are the criteria for the Best MV award, if views are included or purely judge-based. But I'm still hoping they get an award for the MV production coz it is really insane.
From all of the reactors, I was waiting for you! I never doubted they'll absolutely blow your mind with this comeback 😁
Stray Kids made album of the year with 5 Star for me. Usually there's always some songs that I don't vibe with in album but every song is crazy and I'm listening to each of them non-stop. Bsides are SO good, S Class is addictive, mv makes me want to watch it again and again.
And what I enjoyed the most is realizing how Stray Kids really got better and better in producing every era.
I can confidently say that this their best era. Music, mvs, concept, choregraphys, bsides, stylings... everything 5 star. I just hope their global growth explodes after this era because this album deserves it.
that prechorus feels like that part on barbie girl
Stray Kids skipped S-Class and went straight to Maybach status with this release. It is good to see PD thoroughly refreshed from his hiatus and ready to be our Form of Therapy.
I hope you'll react to the whole album soon, it's amazing. Every time I think SKZ won't make a better music/album after a previous one, they outdo themselves haha.
They shot MV over 5 days... There is a video on behind the scenes of mv filming, recommend watching!
They have intro videos for this album, 3 episodes, hope you can react to them (1st - they talk about the how the songs were made, 2nd - somewhat like a dance practice for the title track and 3rd is a behind the scenes recording for the title track)
I loved every expression on your face PD 😂😂😂❤
When I first heard it with my girlfriend I said something like "This is the most Stray Kids song to ever Stray Kids since like Backdoor"
My favorite PD reactor is back! Hope all is well. Y’all were both missed. ❤
I always wait for your reaction. The MV is so crazy I had to watch it 3 times to pay attention to the lyrics. As a designer, I was quite impacted, It gave me even more strength to continue firmly in my profession. They broke several records and counting, among them 5M pre-sales and the 1st group to record in the Han River. Thx por everything ❤❤
Bang Chan’s “what?” In the trailer is a cultural reset. I still haven’t been able to move on from that
I always wait for your reaction every comeback of Stray kids. Seriously, your reaction and attention to details from their music, lyrics, and mv always amazes me! Still, this comeback from Stray kids is another mind-blowing thing that I saw from them.
The visuals, including the "Octopus", incorporate the feeling of a Men in Black movie video. The subject may well have been an homage, even if accidentally. I suspect it wasn't accidental though.
Spot on with the analysis.
Just wanted to say that in the last couple months(?), I have binged so many videos and so many more reactions all across the board. Your reaction, especially initial, is the same as nearly everyone: stunned and speechless jaw drop (sometimes my mind is amused by the triggered line from Mary Poppins in my head, lol).
Don't know how to describe the awesomeness of this video without swearing... This video is how I somehow found Stray Kids (previously zero interest in K-pop). Hooked and unquestionably obsessed. (Since this initial #1 favorite, it has slid into 2nd place as Thunderous is my current #1). So much to this video. Same positive message I've seen in all (or nearly) songs I've experienced so far: we are who we are and no apologies for it, we know what we believe and critics won't sway from solid values.
I've also seen frequently, and this vid especially, that there's so much going on, there's no time to breathe or process before it switches -- each switch somehow more captivating than the last and builds up until when it's over there's no words. In my opinion, even just the silence between end and the logo is timed well for perfect impact. 🥰 You have to rewatch multiple times to discover all the bits as well as lyrics telling the story---but it is so awesome that the typical inability to get it the first time is not something to complain about.
Your reaction is so me! I adore Stray Kids. So much talent and they're so young. They'll just keep going up because they're amazing.
The kids did amazing, cant wait for 5star listening party!
Also, yes that part was sampled from twinkle twinkle little star
The octopus has star sunglasses when it's flying above them lmao
I had to watch the video 3 times. The 1st time I saw it just to actually see the video and I was so confused but happy. The 2nd time I actually read the lyrics and tried to put together what was going on with what they were saying and the 3rd time I was still very much confused but I was already including the song on my playlist so yeah....loving this album so far.
Can’t wait for the album review, because they’re ALL HITS, NO MISSES!!!!
Omg love the reaction 🥰 you have to do “Topline” as well please
SKZ IS on another level with this album 👊
I 10000% think this is one of their best comebacks
@PD, Did you realize JYP stock prices shot up to their new high just recently? It has been up since beginning of the year. JYP market valuation can give that budget Stray Kids needed.
cant wait for you to check out the b side mv‘s!!
Not related to the reaction but it makes me happy to see you so happy, I hope you got to enjoy yout much deserved break! There is so much this album has delivered, so much leveling up and so many interesting intentional choices the boys made that heighten the experience. Easily my favourite album to date, and for Stray Kids, that is one hell of a feat. I always had trouble picking a favourite of anything from them - bside, title track, album, music video. But 5 STAR knocked everything out of the park!
They way I can GUARANTEE you that this album does not only meets your expectations but also exceeds it ten fold... I REALLYYY hope you can put out something for us who do not have patreon ...!!!!
I just love your immediate reaction at the start, changbin is truly such an amazing rapper for a strong entrance & then the members carry on the same powerful flow up to the beat drop..stray kids have a distinct and extreme individuality when it comes to giving you the best of the best. my boys produce their own music with their whole heart & they always make sure STAY have good music to listen to that they’ll enjoy hence the high pre-order numbers + streams. we’re so damn lucky to have stray kids, they’re insanely talented. “they’ve completely outdone themselves” EXACTLY ty pd for saying that, we think we’ve gotten the best but they just give us more + better😭
When you were talking about the budget being maximized, im reminded about what you said when they filmed the mv for M.I.A. they were literally in a room with a table, some chairs, drawers, and lots of wire but it took a lot effort to make it look sophisticated or with budget.
And like theyre whole production stepped up for the whole album. The song is thrilling and i feel like dancers would seriously love it more coz of the elements theyve done with it to dance to (literally emphasized the dance break and then the hiphop section). Their vocals are also more amplified esp Seungmin, he just pops off more...like same level as han and changbin hit with their rap sections. In a sense, they have more balance in vocal/rap power (esp in ITEM, rap and vocals were equally powerful, its mindblowing) -- honestly, i just love the feeling of hearing the accumulated experience of SKZ in SClass. From muddy waters back n forth which the rapline maximized. The children song for twinkle star similar to their playful TTTH. Venom sample sneaked after the intro. Hyunjins verse one like in his bridge (?) In maniac. Heyday elements. Classic beat switch, but the hiphop being 3racha's origin. The motif of STARS which is literally their TMT song origins when they were afraid that the star theyre following had already died.
That chorus byul "eh" sound being skz, Changbin was extra meticulous hahahaha
I hope you get to check out the rest of the 5-Star album! All their B-side songs are amazing. My fav tracks are Hall of Fame, Item, DLC, Get Lit, FNF, Super Bowl and collison!
I WAS WAITINGGGG FOR UR REACTION TO S-CLASSS
Watching the making-of video, the practical fire effects were that insane.
I love watching the videos where you react to Stray Kids because I feel like you really appreciate the guys' work. Every detail of the song or MV is highly appreciated by you, so thank you! I also agree that self-produced groups have something special, for me it was something that influenced me to become STAY, since I connected with their music, their lyrics and their incredible MVs. I think it is a way to connect much better with their fans. Thanks for the video! I love it! 💙⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
best bg video of 2023
i hope you'll do the behind the scenes in July :D
"looks like money, looks like money.." well PD, it's a huge amount of money, right? 💰
absolutely love your reations and commentary specifically, i will definitely have to check out your reaction to the full album, it's literally full of title songs, I think you'll like it
your reaction to bangchan in the trailer was everyone’s reaction haha. loved that whole trailer!
S-Class es de mis regresos favoritos! STRAY KIDS siempre trae algo nuevo que traernos! son realmente STRAY KINGS! gracias amo tu reacción ;) 5 STAR THE BEST ALBUM!
It's definitely off the hook banger song and insane amazing video!! The whole rest of the album will blow you away! 5-STAR is top-notch...is crazy!
I'm looking forward to your reactions to the other songs on the 5-STAR album, they're all excellent！！！
I didn't know you reacted to S-Class already, I just have to say that I love this album so much!
I’m obsessed with this song and mv😂
s-class is such a treat for my adhd brain
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS I was really expecting your reaction since the mv dropped because I JUST KNEWWW you would like it !! I don't know if you've already uploaded the listening party I might just get the patreon thingy bc your reactions are THE BEST !!!!!
Changbin said the budget was increased by 4x 😂
The way i screamed I was so excited to see your reaction! I loved this album so freaking much!
