This song had me transfixed. It had the feeling of moments suspended in time, capturing the idea of how big, overwhelming emotions can exist in a glance that lasts a second. I think this is written in waltz time. 3/4. It’s often such a romantic time signature, calling to mind wedding receptions and the first dance as a married couple. It made for an absolutely heartbreaking contrast with the lyrics. I loved it!

2024-04-03 15:47:58 +0000 UTCThis is my favorite song of Xdinary Heroes. I heard it for the first time via Apple Music recommendation and fell in love with it. I was surprised that this song belongs to them. I recommend you react to their live session, too. This is so incredible and so impactful. https://youtu.be/Jxgwc0Y9tuw?si=C5j9hYk6JVHQcK1K

2024-03-20 15:47:34 +0000 UTCIt reminds me of a 60s or 70s movie soundtrack in the best way.

2024-03-19 01:51:16 +0000 UTCSuch a beautiful song, and the lyrics, they hurt so bad :)))) the first time I heard the song I played it on repeat over and over again and I was so in the feels that I cried so much it was like I was going through a breakup of my own. Funny thing is, my partner and I have been together for 8 years, so idk what imaginary breakup I was going though 😭 but I think that just shows how powerful this song is!

2024-03-18 21:28:07 +0000 UTCI absolutely love this song. When I first heard it, it really reminded me of Muse (mostly the vocals going into the chorus). I can't wait until you listen to Dear H. Because I do feel like Good enough is a good transition song in the album. Also: the entire video I was mesmerized by Han-C's hat.. for some reason I thought the little character was like an actually tiny doll that was somehow attached to it (I'm also tired after a long day of work so maybe it's just my brain doing weird things) and only in the end I realised it was like a flat stitched on patch type of thing xD

2024-03-18 16:27:35 +0000 UTCGood Enough and Dear H. are among my top songs of 2023. The vocals are stunning and the instrumentals are amazing. The amount I listen to this song is obscene. Gun-Il wrote this in music school about a girl he loved from afar, knowing she would never hear the song or know it was about her, which is why the last two lines are “you’ll never find, this story of mine”.

2024-03-18 10:30:33 +0000 UTCSaw them live last night and they were fantastic! Just good, solid bangers all round - well worth going to and the jungsu/jooyeon duo did so well tackling the whole setlist of pretty vocally challenging songs (the hellevator cover was even better live, I went insane at the guitar outro) The next song in this album is one of my faves, and Good Enough shares top spot in my heart with another ballad from the next album! Can’t wait for you guys to get to those ✨

2024-03-18 06:50:00 +0000 UTCI've been waiting for thissss. It's so different from the "normal" XH sound that it was a bit of a shocker when it first came out. I don't normally like music like this, but it quickly became my fave off the album and one of my top 3 XH songs. Even watching this reaction, it made me tear up with how beautiful it is. I'm obsessed with songs that have string/orchestral elements to it, and they NAILED IT with this one. Plus with their amazing vocals? It's perfect. :)

2024-03-18 03:59:26 +0000 UTCWhat is kismet. I just watched them in concert yesterday in Singapore. I didn't know much abt them except that they play rock music and skz dongseng. I listened to their discography otw to the venue. But I was BLOWN away by how good they are. Hearing Dear H. live is transcendent. I hv concert vid of the song if you want to hear them

2024-03-18 03:51:09 +0000 UTCThis is truly one of my favorites by Xdinary Heroes. The first time I heard it I cried it’s just so beautiful and sad.

2024-03-18 03:37:08 +0000 UTCI LOVE Good Enough. The first time I heard it, I was speechless. I think I read (or maybe saw in an interview) that Gun-il, their drummer, took inspiration for Good Enough from his own diary entries that he wrote when he was a student at Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA. He had a major crush on someone during his time there, but never told them. I like this version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jxgwc0Y9tuw

2024-03-18 03:12:29 +0000 UTCJun Han was sick when they filmed. They also did a live version of this song that was equally beautiful. https://youtu.be/Jxgwc0Y9tuw?si=EgfkOM0CXchGChgR This song was written by Gunil regarding a love from his college years. YoungK from Day6 worked with him on the song. It definitely has a sadness but a beauty in the chord progression - it feels like longing. I love this song as it really shows just how skilled they are as musicians and singer/songwriters. This song and Pluto off of Livelock have been my faves. Credits: Lyrics: YoungK, Gunil Comp: Shim Eun-ji, Lee Hae-sol, Jungsu, Jooyeon Arr: Shim Eun-ji, Lee Hae-sol

2024-03-18 02:18:20 +0000 UTCIf I remember correctly, Gunil wrote this while he was in college in the states. I’m so glad the boys got a track that they could really show off their vocals on, because they’re absolutely insane.

2024-03-18 02:04:59 +0000 UTCThis is my favorite song of theirs! 😭😭 PS : i love how we can’t even read a name in the scroll now. 🥰😂 PPS : there’s a wonderful performance video of this song they did. With hello 82? I think? It’s in black and white. It’s raw. Emotion. GORGEOUS.
