Chanhyuk wrote all the songs in this album while serving as a navy, which means he wrote songs mostly on a ship, sailing. He didnt have any instruments or electronic devices to record the idea. He just had a notebook to remember what popped up in his head. GENIUS.
You guys need to know that the bass, guitar, drums, piano on 'Whale' were played by JUKJAE, he also arranged all the instrument included the strings fill too.. He's one of korean genius musician like akmu
I wouldn't trust that lyric videos you showed them but luckily they didn't gave much on to that. although the lyrics of both songs are poetically wonderful. just some fun facts about the two songs: FREEDOM - more like out of this world freedom then realistic freedom. e.g running on top of the clouds free instead of wanting to go somewhere on vacation free. also two opposite kinds are both defined as freedom. - Suhyun doesn't know the lyrics of the last part of the song. Chanhyuk recorded it alone without her. - lyrics : riding on a zebra and cross the crosswalk. zebras signified as untamed animals while pedestrian line signifed as controlled society like traffic lights - arranger : Lee Hyun Young (CHOCOLADY, Reality, How Can I Love The Heartbreak, You're The One I Love) 고래 (Whale) - musically wise Chanhyuk's proud of this song because of how he can show this off to any casual listeners or professional listeners. - it may be a song literally for a whale but it has double meaning. It gives deep message depending on one's own interpretation. - After part of "고래 심장 (a whale's heart)" the music was imitated from a sound wave done by a whale. - and how he gave an alternate direct meaning to ocean : the sky's mirror, the birthplace of dew, a whale's home, a mother's tears - arranger : Jukjae (singer-songwriter) also good to see Hugo and Gwen on an AKMU reaction video again... Whale done.
honestly i feel that- as a korean person the lyric video bothered me way too much :P the actual lyrics to both songs are sooooo much more poetic and beautiful
Umu sometimes asks in Twitter before writing the intros of the videos, I loved all the info you gave and maybe you will want to help her and let them know all that amazing thing ( sorry if I sound disrespectful or harsh in any kind of form, English is not may first language, but it is not at all what I wanted)
@@almendraabate5552thank you... I actually did in the past AKMU reactions, she used the info I replied to her on Twitter as her introduction to the songs (CHOCOLADY vs REALITY & Will Last Forever) .. I don't think I could do that for other artists since I'm only a fan of AKMU. sorry..
What baffles me about the Sail8ng Album though is how they arranged it. We have heard pretty good albums across the years where great songs are found, but I have never had a listen to an album where I consider it as one piece.
Roented Pictures Roented Pictures i don't mind. i realized i never really quite explained why i recommended jonghyun's album - Umu & Kevin reacted to it & (i can't remember the correct details) but the arrangement of the songs on the album, musical artistry wise, is kind of connected, especially the last 2 songs of the album.
I actually thought Freedom was a sad, sad song. I cried when I heard it the first few times. They talk about endlessly wanting freedom (meaning they don't feel free irl) and they seem to have become jaded in the process of growing up in the kpop industry. I have a feeling they'll never be able to sing the kind of silly, innocent songs they started with, and they know this themselves as well.
But Chan Hyuk said that this is mostly because they are growing now and the maturity they are getting are reflecting in their music. You can check that on their free concert in CoffeeForYou's channel. It has eng sub :)
Never thought that way.. For me i felt more breathing free hearing it and loved chan hyuk’s comment ‘The freedom here doesn’t mean that somebody do what he want but means Looking down from high sky each people are unique and equal.. hard to explain for me
You should really listen to the lives that AKMU did at some festivals and the hearing party(?) they did at han river! Vocals only live for whale is also very pleasing. The wistle part of the whale and how audiences participate in Freedom makes you love these songs much more for sure❤️ Plus) As a big fan of akmu, I really like you reacting to Akmu cause I learn a lot about some technical and musical parts of the songs that I like. It makes me like Akmu even more
고래에 참여한 베이시스트, 기타리스트는 한국 최고의 세션분들이에요! 기타리스트 이름은 적재, 베이시스트 이름은 구본암 입니다. 두분 모두 싱어송라이터이기도 해요! 적재님은 '별보러가자', '반짝 빛나던 나의 2006년' 등 많은 앨범을 발매했고 구본암님은 2인조 그룹 'AMHO'에서 한국 최고 드러머인 김승호 님과 같이 음반을 내셨답니다! 기회 된다면 이분들 노래 리액션 비디오도 보고 싶어요 ㅠㅠ
WOKE UP TO THIS UPDATE AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA edit: as usual i know i won’t be disappointed by your reviews to my favorite artists 😩 and it’s great to see the OG reactors again uwu
Wow @ Kevin's comment about the invisible quality that music has when the artist really believes in what they are creating. He worded it so well. I love when you can listen to a song and know that the artists have put their heart into it. Thanks for another great vid!
Thank you for reacting to AKMU! I was overjoyed to see all reactors, but especially Hugo and Gwen. Also I love all details about songs that I could never catch👏
I would’ve loved to see them react to Chantey. When Suhyun’s voice came on, I got these sensational chills all over my body and my eyes teared. I’ve never experienced something like that with a song💕
These are some of my favourite songs from their new album! Actually, I love all their songs, but I really like these and Fish In The Water. (If I remember correctly, cuz I haven't listened to the album in a while. 😅)
It's nice to see the improvement of this channel, from the headphones to playing the references on the bg while they explain for us to know what part they're referring to
Whale is my favorite song on the album, I was obsessed for 3 months (the same thing happened to me with "sometimes i hear howlin 'in my head" by Dean) because it is super relaxing and the mix of sounds is fun. Akmu is art ❤
A reaction on AKMU's impromptu performance in Knowing brothers where they randomly picked topics from a book and made a song about it would be fun. TALENT 🔥
I am soooooo gonna use that Whale Done from now on. Not sure if it exists before this video but this is my first time knowing it. Also, ah Hugo and Gwen reacting to AKMU? Hell, yeah! And I always appreciate Kevin and Isaac's reaction and analysis of a song.
What a great gift for Lunar new year! I've been waiting for your reaction and it's worth. Love your editing of musical explanation. Anw, Happy Lunar new year to you all!
Was waiting for your AKMU video! It is very nice to see HUGO and GWEN after a long time !! Chan Hyuk has said in previous interviews that the arrangement of 'whale' is most confident. I like it too. I think it's a mix of analog sensibility and trendy feeling. I enjoyed watching your reactions!
15:10 Ngl that Gwen and Hugo full reaction to the Sailing album is really tempting umu knows what we want so well that she emphasized that in the advertisement lol

Not gonna lie but everytime it's AKMU, im always looking forward to see Gwen and Hugo
JM Saldaen SAMEEEEEEE
I know!!!! I miss them
ME TOOO
I missed them
Same
Chanhyuk wrote all the songs in this album while serving as a navy, which means he wrote songs mostly on a ship, sailing. He didnt have any instruments or electronic devices to record the idea. He just had a notebook to remember what popped up in his head. GENIUS.
aaahhh,,, that explains the oceanic theme then
He was actually a Marine, but he served several months on the ship.
Nowadays navy can use cellphones a few hours in a day :)
But I don't know Chanhyuk used it or not.
I thought the dude's whistle during freedom was part of the song and it sounded so good
hell yeah!!
Looooove that💥💥💥
Totally!!!!
Owen’s whistling sounds so good!
it was so nice🥺🥺
3:18 how can someone whistle so beautifully like that
How's he doing that seriously?
이정도면 휴고랑 악뮤 만나게해줘야된다ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

휴고 넘 귀영
휴고가 누구죠...?
@@cielo_pink 검은옷 입고 여자분이랑 같이나오는 안경쓴 남자분이요! 모든 악뮤영상에서 악뮤 좋아하는거 너무 티남 ㅋㅋ

세이지란 아시아인분의 말씀에 일리가 있는 건 악동뮤지션부모님이 기독교선교사라고 하십니다.
그래서 온 가족이 몽골로 선교하러 간 적도 있다고 하더군요.
한동안 몽골에서 생활했다고 합니다.
크리스천 록의 영향을 충분히 받을 수 있죠.

OMG.. I can't believe that Hugo, Gwen, Henry and Emiel in this video.. I miss them so much!!!!!!
I wouldn't trust that lyric videos you showed them but luckily they didn't gave much on to that. although the lyrics of both songs are poetically wonderful.
just some fun facts about the two songs:
FREEDOM
- more like out of this world freedom then realistic freedom. e.g running on top of the clouds free instead of wanting to go somewhere on vacation free. also two opposite kinds are both defined as freedom.
- Suhyun doesn't know the lyrics of the last part of the song. Chanhyuk recorded it alone without her.
- lyrics : riding on a zebra and cross the crosswalk. zebras signified as untamed animals while pedestrian line signifed as controlled society like traffic lights
- arranger : Lee Hyun Young (CHOCOLADY, Reality, How Can I Love The Heartbreak, You're The One I Love)
고래 (Whale)
- musically wise Chanhyuk's proud of this song because of how he can show this off to any casual listeners or professional listeners.
- it may be a song literally for a whale but it has double meaning. It gives deep message depending on one's own interpretation.
- After part of "고래 심장 (a whale's heart)" the music was imitated from a sound wave done by a whale.
- and how he gave an alternate direct meaning to ocean : the sky's mirror, the birthplace of dew, a whale's home, a mother's tears
- arranger : Jukjae (singer-songwriter)
also good to see Hugo and Gwen on an AKMU reaction video again... Whale done.

I don't think I could do that for other artists since I'm only a fan of AKMU. sorry..
I didn't know that Jukjae arranged Whale! I freaking love Jukjae!
AKMU are just on a whole other level when it comes to their songs making you feel strong emotions even if it’s upbeat or slow
I love how in-depth they get, they don’t just accept everything at face value and they have such wholesome additions as well. Love you guys🥺🥰
가볍게 하늘을 날아다니는 듯한 목소리 긴장이 쫙 풀리네
The fact that AKMU can evoke my emotions through music even with the language barrier is so baffling to me. How? HOW? HOW?!?
6:52 It's so freaking cool how she explains how none of the notes are constraining, which perfects the theme...
I always love how Kevin gives his opinions. I just think he always notices more about the song.
What baffles me about the Sail8ng Album though is how they arranged it. We have heard pretty good albums across the years where great songs are found, but I have never had a listen to an album where I consider it as one piece.
Absolutely right!!
try listening to jonghyun's poet | artist album :>
@@geneva_yue I mean, as one song~ that pieces together... Sorry, my first comment was bitchy~
@@geneva_yue Also, I love that album too~
Roented Pictures Roented Pictures i don't mind. i realized i never really quite explained why i recommended jonghyun's album - Umu & Kevin reacted to it & (i can't remember the correct details) but the arrangement of the songs on the album, musical artistry wise, is kind of connected, especially the last 2 songs of the album.
The comparison to Christian rock had me dying because I can't get it out of my head now LOL
LMAO I THOUGHT I'M THE ONLY
They were with their missionary parents for many years in Mongolia...so I thought their comment was right on without being right on~^^
SAME HAHA it really does sorta sound like it
Gwen and Hugo reacting to AKMU we love to see it
HUGO AND GWEN ON A AKMU REACTION I CANNOT ASK FOR MORE ❤️
"they're really out here being anarchist environmentalists" 🤣🤣
I actually thought Freedom was a sad, sad song. I cried when I heard it the first few times.

I'm so glad you've finally uploaded the AKMU reaction! Thanks to the editor for all their hard work!!
Freedom이 포근한 이불/담요 같다는 표현 정말 공감된다
Wow @ Kevin's comment about the invisible quality that music has when the artist really believes in what they are creating. He worded it so well. I love when you can listen to a song and know that the artists have put their heart into it. Thanks for another great vid!
I waited for Whale and FREEDOM and you finally did it!
And then, I will wait for 'above the time' and 'The Visitor'
Giving you a like just for the Gwen and Hugo bits, always love seeing those two.
You know AKMU is on a whole different level when real musicians react to their self-composed songs...
YESSSS AKMU!!! You’ve no idea how long I’ve waited and prayed for this that I almost gave up and forgot about it !! But YAYY THANKS
OMG it's Gwen and Hugo!! The og AKMU stans🤩🤩
Please, never stop making these.
I’m just so glad y’all appreciate AKMU. I’ve always loved their music and everything they stand for.
4:33 이 부분 듣고 깜짝 놀랏음 여러번 듣고도 몰랐던걸 이 사람들은 한 번 듣고도 알아차리는구나.... 이래서 전문가가 있구나 싶다

Akmu reactions are my fav 😍
Mine too! So many details 😆
Me too! 😊
Wow Nishinoya? Is that you?
I would’ve loved to see them react to Chantey. When Suhyun’s voice came on, I got these sensational chills all over my body and my eyes teared. I’ve never experienced something like that with a song💕
I have been waiting for over a month for this.
Clicked so fast. Whale is my favourite song on the album! 🐳💞

the name is Fish in the Water ^^
They should react to chanteyyy
Rin Heiki YES oh my goodness

YES!!! ONE OF THE BEST SONG OF AKMU
I love this album so much. It’s my favorite of theirs. It used to be Play but now it’s sailing.
This album was so wonderfully done and so satisfying to listen, one of the best works ever got to listen in kpop
I have been waiting for this!!
I always hope that Cloud and Henry are in the videos, and when I watch them I'm so happy!
I love their interaction and what they have to say!

I like the name graphics display style. (Might be worth the wait 🦥Lol!) And of course seeing the Old-skool H&G pairing is GREAT!

LOVE the editing! Thank you for bringing us new content
This two are my favorite from the album♡ thanks
15:10 Ngl that Gwen and Hugo full reaction to the Sailing album is really tempting

The Christiany feel is definitely there. Living for Umu's "Ew" xD
Whale is my favorite song of this album! So happy to see this reaction.
Finally AKMU❤️ I’ve been waiting for this😍😍😍
An AKMU reaction is always welcomed and appreciated
