Wait Zico's feature sounded great with Deja Boo. Is this the kinda of slayage SHINee would have been serving if Zico stayed in SM and debuted with them?
SNSD being influenced by Ciara (visually) and y'all act like it's a bad thing. I definitely think CMIYC is a safe song, but so was Galaxy Supernova sounding straight out of Stargate's Loud sessions with Rihanna. Safe isn't a bad thing for them right now, they did just lose a member and break their "sisterly" image. Their Korean comeback will hopefully be a bit more innovative.
LUV just isn't a great song in my opinion though. I know they had No No No, but why couldn't they have got 20+ wins for a good song like Mr. Chu?
They probably would have if not for the Sewol ferry thing. Even still, LUV >>>> Mr Chu any day. Mr Chu is just a rehash of NoNoNo to keep the momentum going whereas LUV actually brought something new to their discography.
