I'm gonna need more ONEUS immediately! 💜 they are my ult group, and (in my eyes, anyway) can do no wrong! they are known for very epic sounding songs, and are absolute kings of performance and stage presence! you'll definitely want to check out their live stages, their road to kingdom performances (idk HOW they didn't win...), and their ONEUS theater performances! can't wait to follow you on your journey to becoming TOMOON!

2023-12-14 23:56:40 +0000 UTCThank you for this wonderful surprise! I wasn't expecting a reaction to Oneus any time soon, since it didn't have as many votes as some other groups . . . but I'm so glad you did! There's something about their music that is so catchy and appealing. It's hard to choose which song to recommend next, but it might be nice to stay with some other their earlier songs to see their progression and maturity. Perhaps Twilight or Lit?

2023-12-14 16:24:50 +0000 UTCI've loved this song since the first time I heard it, because it struck my music-loving brain in a special way. Did it cause me to do a deep dive on them? No, no it did not... I think I have 4 songs on my playlist, and have heard maybe 6, but I was kind of in the middle of a deep dive into ATEEZ at the time so yeah. I love that they have lore. I think that was probably obvious for me at some point, but I didn't really think about it because, again, my mind was kind of on a single track at the time and I never did go back and explore these guys like I maybe should've. I do know that they're one of the many groups that debuted with someone who is no longer with them, though, because it sort of threw me mentally when I realized that I wasn't seeing someone in a later video and had to look up who was gone.

2023-12-14 11:23:12 +0000 UTCExcuse my language, but holy shit. That was incredible! First time I've actually watched one of their videos or listened to a song and WOW! Can't wait to see more! That dancing was phenomenal!

2023-12-14 04:41:10 +0000 UTCAlso adding that the deep voiced rapper Leedo has a phenomenal singing voice. But if you’re going by title tracks, following would be “Twilight”, which has this brightness, but this really cool dark tone to it. There is something they do in the song which all I can describe is this “womp womp womp” going down in tune (if that makes any sense). But their choreography is phenomenal in this (coming from a dancer). They are VERY athletic but elegant. “Lit” will literally get you LIT! (think ATEEZ “The Real” vibes but they did it first) followed by “A Song Written Easily” which has some beautiful instrumental to it. 💖

2023-12-14 02:49:12 +0000 UTCHonestly, ONEUS is so good. I have their full albums in my music. They are no skip artists for me like ATEEZ. Their title tracks are great but their b-sides shine and off this album, “Zig-Zag” is very up beat fun song. “Red Thread” is a beautiful “ballad” track and I use quotes bc it is, but it’s not. It’s gorgeous. “Eye Contact” and reminds me of a specific late 90s-early 2000s song. There’s a specific sample in there that is familiar but I can’t pin point what it’s from. “Hero” instrumentals gives me Chainsmokers vibes. I highly HIGHLY recommend digging into their discography. You will be blown away at how much they’re overlooked, but their songs and production is top notch.

2023-12-14 02:47:11 +0000 UTCAh soooo never listened to ONEUS before. I’ve sort of heard of them but didn’t take the time to listen. I’m so glad you reacted to them. I can tell you this going on my playlist as soon as I’m done here. Not only did I really love the song but then you had to mention lore and now i have to go find out what it is, so thanks for that! 🖤

2023-12-14 01:20:03 +0000 UTCI'm copying my YT comment here. To answer your question, yes they have a very expansive lore and part of that is detailed in a vcr that was shown during road to kingdom. That really will come into play when you get to the song Come Back Home. And yes the crystalline structure was a practical effect. They are well known for conceptual videos and keeping their fans (Tomoons) guessing what's coming next. If you want to stick with only title tracks next would be Twilight, but if you are wanting to check out b sides I cannot not recommend the songs Hero and Red Thread off this album. If you are wanting to jump around in order of things then Luna is a turning point for them. Like you mentioned the play on "light us/light up" and the word Valkyrie, Luna works with older style of speaking as well. Lit (가자) is another that brings out a lot of traditional Korean sounds too. The ONLY two songs I would say HAVE to be watched in order are specifically To be or not to be followed by the song No Diggity because TBONTB leads into No Diggity. All in all Oneus has amazing vocals and an ever evolving stage presence. I cannot wait to see your journey through their discography.

2023-12-13 22:56:39 +0000 UTCAhh, this was fascinating! I know nothing about ONEUS, but I've had this song in my playlist for a while after it randomly came on Apple Music one time and I liked it. It's extremely cool to learn about the wordplay around light - I'd just assumed they were using Valkyrie as a mythology reference.

2023-12-13 22:45:59 +0000 UTCI have been W A I T I N G for you to get to ONEUS! There is really only one word that I can use to describe them/their music - satisfying. I have been following them since Road to Kingdom and have added TO MOON to my list of fandoms that I am glad to be a part of. As for what to listen to next, you can't go wrong with any of the tracks that have M/Vs, but i can guarantee you're going to get a ton of recommendations for "Luna" and "Lit". These songs are very much in the "traditional" genre - but with a modern twist and they are two of their highest viewed/praised songs in general. I would almost just say to go in order, but you're gonna do what you want anyway. lol As for lore, yes they have one. Basically they were Monarchs who were sacrificed by the people to appease Helios (who then turned them into vampires because - why not). They then thwarted Helios' plan to bring eternal night (Come Back Home M/V) but were punished by being put to sleep for 100 years. There's obviously more to it, but that's the jist. lol

2023-12-13 22:22:46 +0000 UTCHi! Thanks for reacting to Oneus! They super talented and underrated in my opinion. I'd like to say you should react to everything, lol. But If I have to choose I would recommand : Lit or come back home, to be or not to be, no diggity, and the very very good Luna! I look forward to other reactions 😊

2023-12-13 22:20:37 +0000 UTCoooh! once again, very much love to hear that there's word play because i really thought there was something up with their pronunciation! pretty excited! ~♡
