Assalamualaikum w.b.t.
Today's topic is my latest obsession. Yes, obsess is the right word.
It started off when I watch My Annoying Brother and saw D.O for the first time. He can act. Started to find out more, that leads me to EXO, but at that time I quickly lost interest because from Wikipedia they have EXO, EXO-K, EXO-M... too much to handle.. haha..
Then I watched Touch Your Heart, the OST just got me. Turns out its Chen's Make it Count. Same story, and of course I ended up at the same Wikipedia page on EXO. Eh? Somehow I started watching them, and I went back all the way from their debut days, when there were still 12 members.
I have never been interested in KPop as the tempo was not my style. Back in 2010 when SJ was super popular with Sorry Sorry Sorry and Oppa Gangnam was hitting charts worldwide, I couldn't care less.
But something with these EXO kids, I got drawn in almost immediately. Looked up their songs, lyrics, concerts, interviews, the whole enchilada. This was sometime in 2019. Their debut was in 2012, so imagine I went back 7 years worth of material on these kids and I love it. I think I was heavily drawn to them after both Xiumin and D.O enlisted for the mandatory military service, so they were not many new updates from them as a group. Good time for me to catch up.
This is one of my favourite song, a Japanese song. They have few Japanese song and this one is my favorite. They have been in my constant playlist in 2020.
Cosmic Railway
Whoo, yeah yeah yeah yeah
You can’t choose the place where you’re born”
That’s just overthinking, it’s not like that
While wandering around the far ends of the sky
We came here because we wished for it
The moonlight that seems to guide me through
The interwoven days, I’m going to meet you now
Cosmic Railway
I’ll carry this feeling on board
Cosmic Railway
To return beside my beloved you
Rendezvous under the twinkling starry sky
And in the mists of time, let’s meet
Yeah yeah yeah, hmm
For you who doesn’t shed tears when hurt
I want to be a place where you can be at ease
The weaknesses that you don’t show to anyone
Even if you reveal them all here
That’s perfectly okay too
The moonlight that seems to watch over us
I’ll hug you closely, I’ll entrust everything to you
Cosmic Railway
I’ll carry this feeling on board
Cosmic Railway
To return beside my beloved you
The starry sky above us contacts us
No matter how many times, let’s cross paths again
Dramatic train
Accelerates and carries me
(And you) Among the stardust
Give a big wave at the Full moon
That seems to be smiling
Let’s go on a far off journey
Cosmic Railway, I’ll carry this feeling on board
Cosmic Railway, to return beside my beloved you
Rendezvous under the
Twinkling starry sky
And in the mists of time, let’s meet
Cosmic Railway
I’ll carry this feeling on board
Cosmic Railway
To return beside my beloved you
The starry sky above us contacts us
No matter how many times, let’s cross paths again
Woah, my love, hmm
I will still not call myself a K-Pop fan as I only listen to EXO. Other Korean song that I listened to are strictly drama OST. I don't want to start listening to other group (BTS for e.g) as I know these kids are super talented and I might loose control in trying to catch up, like I did with EXO. This one is just enough. I am heavily invested in them already. Thats enough.
Till next time. Wassalam.
