    It is truly a girls generation and I am not mad at all. This song... Mascara was such a slay last year, I was obsessed so for this to be miles away better is blowing my mind. Everything about this release is PERFECTION, the song is top tier, absolutely SOTY contender, the fashion, the hair, the makeup, THIS VIDEO, like can we talk about how original and unique it is from the sets to the editing and filming? The people they work with are some of the best in every field, as they should be because the girls are shaping up to be just that as well. Girllll wait until the stagessss ughhhh Also, can somebody pack these girls up and send them to the US to promote on a tv show or something? The GLOBAL appeal is real.

      Very true, I personally don’t mind either but I see why some wanted more. There was only two songs released with this comeback so expecting a more complicated song is reasonable in my opinion. If it was a whole album with many different songs then I could see this song being more satisfactory to some.

If someone would've told me that XG is a group that were created by the ladies and they were friends since childhood, then I would've believed you. They have this comraderie amongst themselves that seems way too organic rather this being a case of auditions and then training for years to see if they made the cut.

I the bside was only a taste compared to the tt. It's definitely gonna be hard to beat this and the girls are showing right off the bat that 2023 is another year for girl domination in the industry👏🏻⭐️

      Omg same!! I had to replay him saying “I hate it” three times before I was like damn he actually hates it lol. I love it! Reminds me of 90s R&B - my favorite genre.

      @@Koko3op Tbh I never considered that to be a possibility. It took me multiple listens for Shooting Star for me to get used to it because the stark difference between verses and chorus was giving me figurative whiplash. Left Right is smoother in that sense to me.
