Added 2023-09-28 23:00:03 +0000 UTCComments
OK, I’m going to explain it Nigel when he said fold your thumb index ring and pinkie finger all that would be left up is your middle finger lmfao so he basically said F you to the haters. Literally.🤣🤣🤣💀

2024-12-19 03:00:56 +0000 UTCSecret secret Is a song Han wrote. Whenever he was on a hiatus. And it kind of explains his struggles and his fear kind of being left behind during it. And the song Silent Cry is pretty much stray kids. Response to it.

2024-11-23 00:19:56 +0000 UTCLol if you put down all the fingers you’ll be left with “ 🖕” I just figured that out , I was confused at first but if you read it which I know you have trouble with lol you will understand it says “ fold “ those fingers listed
You Know_British_AmeriacanOooO
2024-07-28 20:47:31 +0000 UTCYou not figuring out the fingers in Cheese stressed me OUT, friend. Start with all fingers up and put the listed ones DOWN.

2024-07-15 05:10:43 +0000 UTCI agree 8.5. Cheese is a banger, ssick is fire, chorus included, secret is bomb, ofc thunderous…what can I say, Wolfgang is my shit…loved this album. Also--mini is the ace in gone away

2024-07-02 21:35:30 +0000 UTCi can’t think of that song through a straight perspective at all 😭 plus i remember the subs used to mention “sin” for one of the lyrics but they changed it
surem
2024-04-01 22:24:58 +0000 UTCThe first version of Wolfgang was done without Hyunjin because he was on hiatus or finishing school (forgot which one) (I think it was the hiatus but it wasn't really a hiatus. He was suspended from the group due to bullying allegations that were later proven false) so that's why there are two versions of ‘Wolfgang’ but I believe that they only released an official track for the one where Hyunjin is in. I could be wrong though

2024-03-31 02:26:03 +0000 UTCI LOVE CHEESE!!! its to the haters lol, and the finger thing, once you fold the fingers they say, your sticking up your middle finger

2024-03-17 05:02:36 +0000 UTCRed Lights was formed when they did a show called SKZ Song Camp! I have yet to see all of it, but this is when they broke up into groups and Red Lights, Gone Away , and Surfin' was written. You'll have to try and see when the other members hear Red Lights for the first time! It's hilarious!

2024-02-25 16:04:52 +0000 UTCif you noticed during the domino performance, right before felix's part, han had a tiny slip up in the choreo. right before felix begins, you can see lee know's eyes on han as they go down & it never fails to make me giggle at his smirk after

2023-10-25 03:10:49 +0000 UTCMannnn, I love it when Nigel Reacts to Fetus Nigel - or in this case Idea Nigel. 🫶🏻🤣🤣 I'm watching this at work and am really having a hard time not busting out laughing, volume 100% 🤣🤣

2023-10-19 18:09:44 +0000 UTCyeah the bond that Stray Kids have with Stay is so special. They really care about their fans so much. Its really beautiful.
Gabriella

Have a great day
2023-10-06 08:22:20 +0000 UTCSilent cry is in my top 3 skz songs, it holds such a special place in my heart :,)
Serena
2023-10-05 04:27:55 +0000 UTCI think that is correct.
Rantea Thompson
2023-10-04 16:10:23 +0000 UTCI believe there is a bit to Korean word play in SSick...native speakers can correct me. The Me so ssick part sounds like 미소 (smile) 씩 SSIK (which I believe is the sound they use when someone smirks)
Ericka
2023-10-04 13:17:03 +0000 UTCthere’s a series on their youtube channel called Howl in Harmony that’s basically the behind the scenes of how they create the unit songs and come up the music video concepts
Grace Niemi
2023-10-04 05:57:28 +0000 UTCHi Nigel, I'm not sure if someone told you already but Star Lost is actually dedicated to a Stay who was sick with a rare illness and passed away. Her name was Hiwa and they had met for the first time online during covid in 2021 through Make-A-Wish Japan. It was her birthday so they sang happy birthday to her in Japanese and they promised that they would see her again when they went back to Japan for their tour. Unfortunately, her illness suddenly got worse and she passed away a few days before she was set to meet Stray Kids again at their concert. Stray Kids cried during the show and sang Star Lost in dedication to her. Chan also read a letter to Hiwa from the members. He said that they performed extra hard and passionately for Hiwa in hopes that they could reach her who is watching them from the sky in Heaven. Stray Kids song Blueprint was her favorite song so they played it at her funeral. https://youtu.be/rd74wNW09gg?si=GkWfPzwQ8qdbyXGm
Gabriella
2023-10-04 01:42:41 +0000 UTCOn the stray Kids YouTube Channel you find the episodes about the music camp on which they created „Red Lights“, „Gone Away“ and „Surfing“.
Nadine
2023-10-03 21:52:14 +0000 UTCThere is a Version of Red Light with all 8 Members. That Version hits different.
Nadine
2023-10-03 21:48:40 +0000 UTC🫂🤍 same, it always helps me at school whenever I have panic attacks the first thing I do is blasting silent cry. I have so much memory and I’m so attached to that song I get what ur saying
Hannah🎸
2023-10-03 10:51:44 +0000 UTCCheese is basically a song for the haters and the parts were fold you thumb index finger ring finger pinky it’s basically a middle finger for them , this album to the haters bc SKZ always get hate for their music they always say it’s “ noise “ so they named this album “NOeasy” but when you say it it’s like noisy lol I love their wordplay
Rzan
2023-10-03 08:46:34 +0000 UTCHey Nigel I highly recommend changbin (feat. bang chan) streetlight https://youtu.be/_oCptmj2gIQ?si=2TFFYixz0GqRzbCG , it’s hands down one of changbin’s best songs and also Han volcano the lyrics and the song is an masterpiece https://youtu.be/SB6VJXA5cYw?si=LIMbKoPu04HtRbOz
Rzan
2023-10-03 07:40:25 +0000 UTCNigel it said on cheese fold you thumb, index finger, ring finger , and pinky and that created a middle finger .
Mia
2023-10-02 23:46:08 +0000 UTCNigel , you need to react to their album trailers. Noeasy album has one of the coolest album trailers ever . I don’t know if you will see this but I hope you react to it . ODDNARRY album trailer also slaps so hard . You won’t regret it . And also Cheese mv.
Rose Akyaa Opoku-Boateng
2023-10-02 08:52:33 +0000 UTCIm lowkey a staybaby. Im an Atiny all the way. But The track Cheese lowkey made me feel like i was bossing up on someone. I liked it #BabyStay
Jasmine Phillips
2023-10-01 02:31:10 +0000 UTCL O L idk why it was stressing me with you trying to get the finger part for CHEESE. I was like legit yelling at you through the screen but basically they're telling you to fold all the other fingers and you're left with the middle finger up. For Wolfgang there is a version with only 7 of them which id the version they performed on Kingdom since Hyunjin wasn't there unfortunately. But this is my 2nd favorite album after 5-Star since it came out
Sisi
2023-09-30 22:21:11 +0000 UTCSilent cry is literally in my top 5 skz song outta all of their albums…it helped me get thru a lotta shit so I have a really diff place for that song
Hannah🎸
2023-09-30 19:38:24 +0000 UTCsilent cry has to be one of my favs... I just feel every word and even tho I dont understand the language, I simply feel the emotion in this song. This song comforts me and tears me apart emotionally at the same time.
Annika B
2023-09-30 15:54:24 +0000 UTCSeconding everyone else here but please watch the Howl in Harmony song camp series after this! 🥺 If you're wondering how Red Lights came to be, there's your answer haha. The whole series is so fun and it's so interesting to see how the subunits made Gone Away, Surfin' and Red Lights. There are five episodes, starting here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxyOkkPIuPk
caedi
2023-09-30 15:00:37 +0000 UTCSomeone the recommendation tier ask him to watch the videos of the units making the songs!! Plz plz plz
Lil’ Itchy AKA Jadis
2023-09-30 10:24:18 +0000 UTCAlso when you watch the videos for noeasy you should also watch the album trailer!! Their albums always have a trailer and the noeasy one is my favorite!
Emi
2023-09-30 08:20:05 +0000 UTCYour next album is actually Scars and then christmas EveL then oddinary then Circus

2023-09-29 22:56:06 +0000 UTCSince you've seen the music video and live version of Thunderous, could you please react to the Skzoo video for Thunderous when you get to the m/v review??? Pretty please???? You'll laugh your butt off and I already know where you'll be pausing and rewinding...and I'm sure it will be a lot!!! LOL. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDKIUVFAPDU
mandasue
2023-09-29 21:47:56 +0000 UTCYou have to watch the Star lost version from the 3rd fanmeeting. The Skzoo's are there🥰this is just beautiful and makes you happy
Anne
2023-09-29 19:37:28 +0000 UTCTHANK YOU SOO MUCH FOR THE ALBUM REVIEW. the others pretty much explained what you didn't get now, you asked about the paring for red lights and surfin is was a little unusually. Howls in harmony will show you them making the songs and such it will explain a lot. You dont know how much i have been waiting for you to watch Howls in harmony. its like my fav mini series from stray kids. oh my. I hate being like this but, its not like a you should what it. Its a YOU HAVE TO WATCH IT AND YOU WILL LOVE IT. THANK YOU for these reactions hope you will make the time soon. i am telling you, you are gonna love IT. ly
Linostay
2023-09-29 19:11:48 +0000 UTCThere is a behind the scenes of making the three subunit songs (Red Lights, Surfin' and Gone Away) in episodes called "Howl in Harmony". Also, the reason there's an OT8 version of Wolfgang is because Hyunjin wasn't present for Kingdom (apart from the very first performance), so this is the full song basically. In the Kingdom performance, I believe Han takes his part as well as his own.

2023-09-29 17:29:16 +0000 UTCeverytime i see the mv, i am back to that samed feeling when i saw hyunjins face again after 4 monthns :( :(
Betty Eder
2023-09-29 17:27:43 +0000 UTCooooh i always thought the headache part was a reference to side effects! thanks for clarifying
Betty Eder
2023-09-29 17:25:29 +0000 UTCi used to avoid cheese because it annoyed me but now its one of my favourite skz songs lmao
nope
2023-09-29 17:14:45 +0000 UTCNigel! I get your confusion to CHEESE, and yes it deserves all I’m about to write because this song Is just too clever. This is my interpretation of the song. First things first; Noeasy as an album is a slap at the haters for the reactions to especially Gods menu and Side effects. They were criticized for making “noice“ or construction music. I’m sure others have mentioned it but if you fold all the named fingers, you are literally flipping someone off lol. The cheeses that were mentioned are cheeses with low lactic acid, so lactose intolerants can still eat them. They are trying to say that everyone can listen to their music, they don’t have a specific crowd they write for. Changbins lyrics “Is the pigeon and the magpie funny to you“ references to his first verse of gods menu where most of the criticism came from and I believe was the inspiration for the album. I interpret the lyrics “Is it funny that we have a headache“, again the criticism of their construction music which their fans seem to enjoy and they themselves like to make. This is also a line from Side effects. Felix also say the line “look, why’d you say it like that“. This I believe is from the survival show because when Minho made a mistake for his last mission Felix asked him exactly this but since he was still learning Korean he sounded accusatory and this has sadly been used against him. I.N have said in old vlogs that people found him scary because he didn’t use to smile much and always had a resting face. He decided to smile instead, and it has become his signature in the Stray kids for sure. I believe this is why they gave him the iconic line; one two three CHEESE. Overall, this song is about cheese but it’s the stray kids cheese. Unless you break down each bar it won’t make much sense but it’s also just the vibe of the song, it has more of a punk rock sound than a hip-hop beat I believe people would have assumed they would use for a clap back song but this again shows their versatility. Lastly thank you for all your reactions they are way to funny and how you try your best to interpret the songs, but some of their songs are like this one and it is hard for a first listen!
Benedicte Konradsen
2023-09-29 16:50:05 +0000 UTCIt always takes me back and I know we all cried when we saw hyunjin, mixed tape OH will forever hold a special place in my heart 🥹
Layah Snow
2023-09-29 16:39:48 +0000 UTCcheese is a diss song to those who talk bad about their music saying is that funny to you haha very funny. The fingers thing is saying to fold your thumb, index, ring, and pinky finger meaning the only finger that should be standing up after that is the middle finger so it's kinda like they're throwing their middle finger to the haters
Vic
2023-09-29 16:05:17 +0000 UTCAlso, if you paid attention to the lyrics silent cry sounds like a response to secret secret (another han jisung song btw). Secret secret is about struggling to hide your emotions and weaknesses from others and then comes silent cry: "You can show me the tears you've been quietly hiding, don't be the only one hurting give me your silent cry" I'M IN TEARSSS THESE GUYS ARE UNBELIEVABLE
Tarteel
2023-09-29 15:48:38 +0000 UTCFor oddinary you already listened to 4/6 tracks, I suggest going through the trailers and the album intro first for things to fall into place Personally, nothing is topping this album. I really enjoyed and loved all their recent releases but oddinary is just an unbeatable queen, can't wait for your reaction!
Tarteel
2023-09-29 15:21:16 +0000 UTCAnd thank you for pointing out how far I.N. has come! He's naturally really really good at trot singing, but I think he probably had a challenge to adjust his tone to fit kpop and especially being so young when he debuted, he's learned and improved so much to be way more stable. His vocals in "Maniac" (the first skz song I heard) were one of the first (aside from Felix of course haha) that stood out to me - I love his unique higher voice. Felix, I.N., and Changbin I think have the most unique voices in the group that stood out to me, but they're all crazy amazing vocalists and just keep getting better
CoolCrow
2023-09-29 15:01:06 +0000 UTCBro wolfgang is MY ANTHEM! The powerful provocative lyrics, the aggressiveness, the confidence, the slow verses right before the explosion, the actual wolf howling? A FREAKING MASTERPIECE!!!
Tarteel
2023-09-29 14:57:42 +0000 UTCHonestly, I loved Cheese the first time I heard it. I was lowkey a little confused/not getting the full meaning yet but I was vibing and I loved I.N.'s voice the first time he did the little pre-chorus thing (when he says "What's the matter?"). Felix listing the cheese types made me laugh and confused me though "Thunderous" is one of my favorite skz MVs. I frickin' love Changbin's thunder shout. My favorite part that no one points out is I.N.s little spins and when he does that little hand motion when he sings his part about riding on the wind. Idk why I love it so much And Nigel you've listened to "Gone Away" before lol; I'm glad you loved it again. And the first time, you didn't like "Surfin'" very much but I'm glad you like it now I really like "Wolfgang" as a song, but the performance makes me embarrassed for some reason?? And yo I thought that the turtle was cute. He's ugly in a cute way ;-; Some of us can relate
CoolCrow
2023-09-29 14:56:16 +0000 UTCnigel is so right for how he reacted at Changbins part of The View IT HAS NO RIGHT TO GO THAT HARD EVERY. FREAKING. TIME JDANHGVLIRGNVL
amberXella
2023-09-29 14:27:37 +0000 UTCRed Lights is actually about an unhealthy obsession with something/someone (its Korean name translates to obsession). Both chan and hyunjin are such workaholics that no matter how physically and mentally exhausted they are they'll always prioritise their work over everything else even their own health and wellbeing. The song is mainly about their somewhat detrimental obsession with work but they made the MV this way to kinda also represent other types of obsessions/toxic relationships and to add an artistic dimension to it
Tarteel
2023-09-29 14:19:25 +0000 UTCI love this album. Cheese is one of my favs. I love that Seungmin was so excited to rap on it. The meaning and the use of cheese to smile plus making it nonsense to annoy the haters. The View is my #1 song off this album.
Monica
2023-09-29 14:09:04 +0000 UTCWas just about to share it!
Tarteel
2023-09-29 14:02:34 +0000 UTCAs corny as it might seem, silent cry got me through a very very very hard time in my life I would just play it and cry off all my sorrows, the emotions it stirs into me is so overwhelming (sometimes even unbearable ngl). So crazy how a song can have this real strong impact on someone these guys are geniuses
Tarteel
2023-09-29 13:32:36 +0000 UTCOne of my joys in life is seeing people completely confused by cheese lol This song is a clapback to haters put in an unserious metaphoric way. NOEASY as a whole has this same theme (as obv seen in the album name and title track)
Tarteel
2023-09-29 12:28:58 +0000 UTCyour reaction to wolfgang had me on the fucking floor man 😭
Lia Roslyn
2023-09-29 12:00:27 +0000 UTCsilent cry is my fav skz song ever i love it sm
hyun444
2023-09-29 11:10:49 +0000 UTCThe cheeses Felix lists at the end of cheese are all low lactose meaning even people with lactose intolerance can eat them. Meaning their music is for everyone. IMO
Lil’ Itchy AKA Jadis
2023-09-29 10:40:39 +0000 UTCDid someone tell him that Cheese is a shoutout to the haters!! Smiling in their face and letting their hate roll off their backs?

2023-09-29 09:43:13 +0000 UTCmy girl noeasy is def not for the weak lol this album was like a big f you to all haters who talked on skz for creating their own sound and calling it “noisy”. the kids really emphasize there capability to take on any position thrown at them and completely body it. all rounders. my talented lost boys :,)
gplebbs
2023-09-29 09:04:10 +0000 UTCthey actually did some behind the scenes videos about the subunits in this album and their songs and its called howl in harmony!! i think you will really like it cuz they talk about how they made the songs and chose the subunits
Sara
2023-09-29 07:44:25 +0000 UTCI don't think anyone's mentioned it but Thunderous doesn't have an English version. I think you were thinking of Double Knot. There are english versions to Levanter, Top, Slump and Domino though.
Tracy McGill
2023-09-29 07:31:34 +0000 UTCI think it's on his Twitch account (I am not sure tho)
Shokojoh Jonh
2023-09-29 07:18:33 +0000 UTCWhy didn't you show your first reaction to Red Lights? Not all of us got to watch it with you
NightOwl
2023-09-29 07:09:54 +0000 UTCSometimes I feel like if you watch the intro and videos 1st, before you do a deep dive on the lyrics, you'd get a better understanding and vibe of some of the songs. However I know it can be overwhelming keeping up with the visuals and lyrics at the same time on something new. As always, had fun, can't wait for the next one!
AD
2023-09-29 06:26:48 +0000 UTCyeah but the like just the first episode right? maybe two i'm not sure

NightOwl
2023-09-29 06:09:54 +0000 UTCI know you already reacted to Maniac and Venom on the Oddinary album but can you react to all 3 of their teasers and watch Maniac again after it
NightOwl
2023-09-29 06:07:34 +0000 UTCCheese is a diss song you'll understand it when you watch the MV
NightOwl
2023-09-29 06:01:37 +0000 UTCI know it was so funny
NightOwl
2023-09-29 05:59:14 +0000 UTCMake sure you start watching the album trailers from noeasy onwards nigel!!! they're literal mini movies all packed into like 2-3 mins they go nuts on those
0325lix
2023-09-29 05:58:45 +0000 UTCme too! I hope he does the whole show not just the performances I watched on VIKI but IDK if he'll be able to show it some other YouTubers find ways around it so hopefully he'll watch it
NightOwl
2023-09-29 05:58:00 +0000 UTCplease react to the trailer for noeasy before you watch the music videos its the best trailer ever!

2023-09-29 05:38:56 +0000 UTCIt might be the only skz song where I prefer the verses to the chorus tho

2023-09-29 05:36:52 +0000 UTCSsick was definetly a grower for me but I love this shit now
Shokojoh Jonh
2023-09-29 05:35:13 +0000 UTCHe is so right about cheese, that's how you feel when you hear it for the first time without context. Then when you understand that's such a fucking banger
Shokojoh Jonh
2023-09-29 05:06:08 +0000 UTCCan someone in the recomendation tier tell him to watch the trailers cause the NOEASY trailer is too good to not be watched

2023-09-29 04:58:31 +0000 UTCCheese is an f u to the haters who make fun of their songs. Skz are mocking them. The song is basically a playful “we really don’t give af we’ll make whatever songs we want fck u”. The fingers part, if you put all of them down it’s the middle finger 😭… also, When felix saying the cheeses, If you count the syllables it’s blue (1) cheese, ched•dar (2) cheese, parm•e•san (3) cheese.

2023-09-29 04:11:02 +0000 UTC***Hey Nigel, if you're interested in seeing a bit more about StrayKids and Hiwa (Make-a-Wish), here are a couple links. They're really heartwarming and heartbreaking 😪. SKZ video call with Hiwa https://youtu.be/94vxTHq2pWs?si=9hURI8Fx-2BnMCFb Chan reading his letter about Hiwa on stage at the Tokyo concert she was supposed to attend but sadly passed away a few days prior. https://youtu.be/rd74wNW09gg?si=MzxdpKOx7wS0g8S0 ***How Red Lights came to be: SKZ had a series (it's only 5 episodes) "Howl in Harmony" where they broke up into units and each unit created their own song together. Bangchan and Hyunjin made "Red Lights", Lee Know, Changbin and Felix made "Surfin'", and Han, Seungmin and I.N made "Gone Away". The series showed how they came up with the songs and showed the behind the scenes for the mv's. Prepare yourself bcuz the behind the scenes for "Red Lights" is 🥵🥵🥵. Here are the links if you're interested. Howl in Harmony Ep.1 (Han, Seungmin, I.N) https://youtu.be/zxyOkkPIuPk?si=vkAoCXPs0vDgon0C Howl in Harmony Ep.2 (Lee Know, Changbin, Felix) https://youtu.be/xQHxjn9FKDc?si=wnuI26QocqD9uexB Howl in Harmony Ep.3 (Bangchan, Hyunjin) https://youtu.be/j2qXVzk2apg?si=xxYCNJMxiDlsMvC3 Howl in Harmony Ep.4 (Group Talk) https://youtu.be/_HclYiIuxUk?si=1yScmKASpmpzZwdb Howl in Harmony Ep.5 (Last Episode) https://youtu.be/GKC4z3rGOE8?si=3PwAIluR1DvOjgrV

2023-09-29 03:41:34 +0000 UTCHey Nigel I've never commented before today but I just wanted to come on here and say thank you. I've been a patron since you started making skz content and getting a notification from you in my email never fails to make me smile. I just got through my first month of college away from home and it's taking a bit of a toll LOL and I think somehow you sensed it cause now I've got two album reviews to watch. Perfect timing! Thanks so much for being your goofy and inspiring self when I need it most. Sometimes when school and work get to be too much I just think about you telling us to chase our dreams and put in the work. You're the best dude! I hope you know that we appreciate you just as much as you appreciate us. Until next time :) I hope everything's going well for you!

2023-09-29 02:57:38 +0000 UTCSo basically SKZ had to dealing with alot of hate thru the yrs and the song CHEESE is basically a diss to the haters and and basically they didnt mentioned the middle finger so it was more so them flippin the middle finger to the haters and anyone that spoke shit about them and their music been called noisy thats why they called this album NoEasy....this is one my fav albums...but u will understand CHEESE once u watch the MV 💗143 P.S. Also Star Lost is one of my fav song and they always end concerts with this song...so its special to them and stays and for me too🫶🏾 ...And Also did any of ya notice Nigel calling us freaky ass while he over there putting His Red Lights on!!! 🤣🤣🤣🫣🫣 A lil fun fact Nigel...Hyunjin wrote the Red Lights song and he took it to Chan and Chan toned it down a alil...and Lee Know wrote the song Drive with Chan also and then we have the creators of RED LIGHTS & DRIVE create TASTE!!! 🫣🫣🫣

Sara K
2023-09-29 02:18:13 +0000 UTCthis is why I love Stray kids this album really was a HUGE growth area for them you can truly see the love they put in their music and it really SCREAMS how hard they worked! they are one of a kind original talented boys and are so diverse and great at exploring all genres! I hope more people get to experience the beauty that is Stray kids! They went through so many hardships at this time! They came out on the other side stronger than they were before! They showed us they have what it takes and don't give a fuck about what people have to say! this album is so powerful! I am so happy you reacted to it Nigel! I can't wait for you to explore more of what stray kids have shown the world! I love you Stay, Nigel, and skz
Kaitlyn
2023-09-29 02:16:37 +0000 UTCi agree with what you said about i.n's growth as a vocalist, if you listen to him on the survival show then listen to more recent clips, the growth is insane! he was good back then, but he's amazing now. you can tell he really put in a lot of work over the years, same goes for all of them really but to me the difference is most noticeable with i.n also, i love cheese but it's not for everyone haha. i grew up on alternative/punk/pop punk music and cheese gives me those vibes which is why i love it
oddinry
2023-09-29 02:13:02 +0000 UTCcheese makes lots of references to their songs that got lots of criticism in the past (du du du du du du, crows/magpies : gods menu) (crows crowing : awkward silence) (headache : side effects) I think that the subtitles are a bit wrong on this lyric video, if you put down the fingers listed in the official lyrics it makes a thumbs up (not sure if this is true but i saw people saying that in the background they say the fingers that make the middle finger) Don’t quote me on this but i’m pretty sure the cheeses felix listed are the cheeses that are easiest to digest for lactose intolerant people and most people say that it means stray kids have something for everyone Cheese is basically a song laughing at their haters

Shania Nicholson
2023-09-29 01:56:31 +0000 UTCso excited, my favorite stray kids album
Maya
2023-09-29 01:56:03 +0000 UTCSo cheese is basically a song to all the haters who were hating on God's Menu, and different things about the members. The thing about the fingers was telling you to FOLD those fingers down. What's left was your middle finger. They basically told all the haters f off

2023-09-29 01:31:12 +0000 UTCIf Gone Away got you like that... wait till you see the Love Poem performance from Kingdom!
Yelle2308
2023-09-29 01:30:53 +0000 UTCCHEESE is definitely an acquired taste. It’s basically an f you to those who hate what they do, and the way they went about sending that message was creative for sure. Personally, I’m still not super into it, but the MV goes hard. Gone Away is so underrated!! If you like that song, you’ll love “Waiting for Us” which is a track on ODDINARY.
Séraphine
2023-09-29 01:23:46 +0000 UTCI would love to suggest this in the recommendation tier (but it's sold out ㅠ) but whenever you have time you should totally get into "[SKZ SONG CAMP] howl in harmony" it's a nice little 5 episode series about the noeasy units and how they came up with the concepts of their songs. I just think it's a fun little watch! so definitely recommend whenever you can:)
chloe
2023-09-29 01:22:58 +0000 UTCAll in all I believe the point of this song was just to mess around lol
Complex
2023-09-29 01:22:22 +0000 UTCSome say the part when they say "DU DU DU DU" that people were making fun of Gods Menu. Some say the part where they say "Is my headache funny?" that people were saying Side Effect was weird music. lol This is all assumtions lol I love this song though I play it when people try to poke fun at me :)
Complex
2023-09-29 01:19:47 +0000 UTCTrust me you do NOT want to miss the B-sides on those
Kaylee
2023-09-29 01:18:53 +0000 UTCand Scars and Christmas Eve-L should be your next ones! They both came out at the end of 2021 after NoEasy, before Oddinary in March
Kaylee
2023-09-29 01:18:33 +0000 UTCNigel don't forget Circus! It came out between Oddinary and Maxident.

2023-09-29 01:16:43 +0000 UTCNegrito !!! U have to check the noeasy trailer I beg you 🙏
Claudia López
2023-09-29 01:15:32 +0000 UTCThe song is basically for the haters that make fun of their music and praying for their down fall.
Complex
2023-09-29 01:14:17 +0000 UTCIf you love Chan’s singing you should listen to “I hate to admit”. It’s a SKZ Record and It’s just Chan and it gives Deep End vibes. To understand the unit songs you should watch Howl in Harmony. The units explaining their song and lyrics in their classic chaotic way. Wolfgang, Cheese, and The View is in my gym playlist 🙌🏾.
Brit Bratt
2023-09-29 01:12:41 +0000 UTCSo the first part you want to close your fingers
Complex
2023-09-29 01:11:09 +0000 UTCSeeing your reaction to Gone Away makes me really excited for you to get to a song that's in Oddinary. Also can't believe I really just sat there and watched a turtle eat.
Madelyn & Kaitlyn
2023-09-29 01:10:39 +0000 UTCThe finger part is basically saying "f you and peace" its very confusing but I had to figure that out for a whole week
Complex
2023-09-29 01:10:10 +0000 UTCalso they're not crazy, them saying "blue cheese, cheddar cheese, parmesan cheese" was them referring to all the genres they have done and they said FOLD your fingers lmaooo they're basically flipping the bird to the haters. and their music being called construction music/noisy music by the haters and them coming out with a whole album called noeasy is so iconic lmfao they really said yeah that's us ig also the "smile" at the end of the trail of yeahs in direct translation is not so kind in Korean. "uso-bwa" is more threatening like saying yeah please try and laugh/go ahead and laugh ig not like I care

2023-09-29 01:07:57 +0000 UTCI wish you watched the NOEASY Album Trailer! my favorite trailer!!

Ny
2023-09-29 00:58:40 +0000 UTCthe story about Hiwa is true! There are clips from their meet up and there is a video of Chan reading the letter during the concert and dedicating this song to her. They play it at every concert now- its the last song before Haven, which is their closer

Liyah
2023-09-29 00:37:11 +0000 UTCBro ngl the fact that NOEASY is a world play on Noisy makes soo much more sense cause the first thing I hear haters say about them whenever they got award or just got good achievement, the first thing they say to drag them is “ they are too noisy” or “ too much noise” smth related to that so the fact that they got a whole album dedicated to that? The dragging is not dragging I fear and this is actually my fav album

2023-09-29 00:36:47 +0000 UTCNIGELLLLLL Secret secret is another one of Han's songs 😭😭😭 I think you have a type LMAO

2023-09-29 00:35:33 +0000 UTCLove your album reviews. You have to watch the Cheese video. I know people explained it but it does make a bit more sense when you see the visuals too. It's fun and they sort of mock all their silliness and what people say.

Merry
2023-09-29 00:16:31 +0000 UTCI’m always curious to see if people are going to understand cheese, and I love how Stray Kids haters tried to use it to criticize them, not realizing that the song is quite literally mocking them. 😁 cheese
Sandra Mar
2023-09-29 00:07:27 +0000 UTCSo cheese is strange- I saw you liked a comment earlier up but the second part to that is that the chorus thats just full of "yeah yeah" and the same verse being repeated was because a lot of hate they were getting at the time was people saying their music all sounded the same/was noise music/repetitive. So they made this song as repetitive as possible as well. Also- NoEasy -> Noisy. This is one of the few albums where they REALLY clapped back at people

Lucyy
2023-09-28 23:50:15 +0000 UTCI see everyone has told you about the middle finger 😂, but the whole song is a diss to all their haters. For the intro: - Dudududu is funny refers to Gods menu - Headache is funny refers to a line in Side Effects There are other references to different songs in Cheese as well as references to hate comments they were receiving at the time online. The guys decided to have some fun with it, so decided to make as many different references to Cheese that they could, even taking inspiration from a line in Wallace & Gromit for part. Haha
