Six men of 2PM are back!
On September 10th, they released music video for their newest single
called Going Crazy. However, the
album itself will be released on September 14th. With this single,
2PM made the second attempt on making party anthem after Hands Up in 2011.
Going Crazy will be the first 2PM title track with Jun K as its composer. Jun K has known to often compose songs for
2PM, his solo track, and other JYPE label mates. He has solid track record, so
it is a bit unexpected that he only able to compose the title track after six
years debuted with 2PM.
So, are you ready to go crazy with 2PM? Check out their music
video below!
Going Crazy will get your attention since the first listen. It is a super
catchy song with addictive chorus and enjoyable beat.
This song opened with a beat that sounded like 80s disco music. There
is synthesizer, bass, and guitar sound on it that emphasizes the funky vibe. Then,
it followed by Wooyoung, Chansung, and Junho’s vocal part. The song flows really nicely between the
verses. It is enjoyable to listen.
But, my favorite part would be the chorus part. Going Crazy shows how to make a good
chorus for K-Pop song. It has simple words with addictive hook without sounds
repetitive. The formula is effective and I am sure that you will not get the chorus
out of your head after listening to this song. I have to give applause to Jun K
for this because it is not easy to make a song that will instantly get your
attention since the first listen.
Moving on to the members’ vocal, their vocals also suit the song.
Even Taecyeon’s rap sounded good on
it. I give another applause for Jun K that able to showcase each member’s strength.
As for the music video, it is really suit the lyrics, which is
about going crazy at the party. When I first watched it, I was like, “What the
hell is this???? Hahahaha”. It is a really weird music video, yet hilarious at
the same time. I think the whole music video it’s like 2PM hangover dream after
the party.
There are various settings that being usage on the music video
such as garage and living room, which are quite simple. There is also a studio
scene with bright blue lights for their dance scene. But, the most memorable
part would be the fake moon setting. It is really surprising, but this able to
capture the crazy element of the whole song theme.
Then for the styling, Junho, Taecyeon, and Chansung look really
good with their laid back style. But at the same time, they need to change Nichkhun and Jun K’s hair. For Wooyoung,
well he really defines the crazy concept through his style hahaha.
As for the dance, it also fits the crazy theme. It still highlights
2PM signature acrobatic dance, but this time, they seem to make a spoof version
of it. The highlight part would be the motorcycle dance on the chorus, which is
hilarious and unique.
With Going Crazy, 2PM is
really going crazy. It is a catchy song with addictive beat and hook along with
fun music video that suit the whole theme. It also proves how 2PM able to make
another party anthem after Hands Up.
But, the most important thing is I love how they decide to leave
out their beastly image and go carefree on this comeback. It really affects the
viewers too. After all, you will not care about how weird the music video,
choreography, and the styling is. You just laugh, sing, and dance along with
them. You too are going crazy with 2PM ;)
