Emo Kids best kids

when you said their older songs I WAS LIKE YES YES YES. ESPECIALLY 'WHY?' FROM THE LYRICS, THEME, TONE, SOUND, JUST EVERYTHING WAS SO LEVELLED UP DEBUT ERA SKZ. IT WAS SUCH A THROW BACK

Oh yeah I couldn't understand why I loved Falling Up so much that it immediately jumped into my top of favorite Stray Kids songs in recent years and now I know, because it really reminds me of the good old Stray Kids🥺

I love how much you love this album. They released this and the very next day announced their Ate comeback and i feel like this didn’t get enough time to marinate for a lot of stays. Their japanese discography is sooo good.

I am in love with the whole album. SKZ ANIME & Video Game OSTS on a SKZ album I say heck yeah. I am so obsessed of SKZ God of Tower 2 OSTS “Night” and “Falling Up”, and then Arcane OST “GIANT”fire.🔥🔥🔥

RoseStar

Hello PD! I also love stray kids japanese songs a lot Just a heads up, but if u like their japanese songs so much you should check out their japanese album for THE SOUND, i really love those japanese songs from them And it has a rly similar vibe from this Giant album

Rodrigo Pereira

glad that you enjoyed this so much! this is also my fav skz album. obsessed with their japanese music

I hate to be the person to say this and I do not want to sound like: "So you did not give Wishful Winter 11/10 because it is full of already released songs, but you give Giant 12/10, despite it being the same case", but I have to make it clear for you, because I was going to mention the references to Slump and TOP were intentional, because Night and Falling Up are opening and ending for the new season of the same anime, so it was released early and that is why it has also English and Korean version released at the same time, because that was the case with Slump and TOP being in all 3 languages. Why? was also used as a theme song for something and it was released way prior to this album and then you have Chk Chk Boom Japanese version, so 6 songs/tracks out of 10... But I get you why you love it so much. It feels like those songs blend together really well as if it was intentionally planned. Eve repeating Night and Falling Up at the end makes it all feel "well ended". Probably only Christmas Love and Chk Chk Boom are different than the rest of the album, but I am not into Christmas songs (although this one is cool), but at the same time I do like a lot the Japanese version of Chk Chk Boom, so I am glad it was released here, maybe I would place it as the first track and then continuing with Giant and on. The only thing I am sad about is S-Class not getting its Japanese version but mainly LALALALA not getting it either, because that song in Japanese and for this album would have made the album 15/10!

It’s a JYP magic thing; TWICE Japan discography is also out of this world

I won't say like the others that Night and Falling up are the opening and ending to Tower of God, just like TOOP and Slump before. Okay, I did say it, but what I actually want to add: you might also like Tower of God as an anime. It is based on a Korean webtoon that is not yet finished. About the songs: I love Night. Night is my all-time favorite from the album, followed by Aiwokuretanuninaze, Falling Up, Christmas Love, Giant, Saiyan and the Japanese version of ChkChkBoom. With Night and Falling Up, though, I listen to the English versions rather than the Japanese ones. I understand why you favor the Japanese version of ChkChkBoom and would even agree with you. I probably would like it better if I had heard the version first, haha.

One of my favorite album for sure. Love all the songs. Falling up and Saiyan is really hard to choose from. Really enjoyed this LP ❤

Naj.naaj

i actually agree with the top list tbh its kinda ironic that their best songs in my opinion ,are actually japanese , they are just so good with japanese songs its crazy how good this album is

Lounaticist

yeah as people have mentioned, top and slump were the opening and ending OSTs for Tower of God season 1, night and falling up are the same now for season 2b!

amelia

There is actually a music video for Christmas Love. It's really cute🥰

Lucy.S

it makes sense that you said night was an anime ost, bc it’s the opening (with falling up being the ending song) of tower of god season 2! :)

scire

Night was made for me, it's just one of those songs that feels like they didn't ask my permission to make a song like that like for me but it's the best gift I could have asked for! Saiyan is a VERY close second! I actually had to look up what Saiyan means. Every song on this album is exactly what I love from stray kids like Scars and Voices and all of Levanter album. I really need more of this from them!

Alison Renaud

saiyan is definitely my fav, like ive replayed that song so many times to the point that even though the album dropped late in the year it became one of my top played songs of the year. Although falling is a very close second, like the moment I heard that pre chorus from seungmin and chan I was so moved I shed a tear

Malaki.H

why?, night, & falling up were all osts, so they were all previously released!! night & falling up was the next “top & slump” people were telling you about 😂 hope more stray kids variety is to come in the next months :D

Marii

I have been amazed with SKZ japanese versions of their songs for a while, particularly I listen to CHILL japanese ver way more than the original, which had never happened to me before! So now I always look forward to their japanese versions.
