Classical Musicians React: SHINee 'Dream Girl' vs 'Why So Serious'

[@ZeldaNarutoLovaer11]

My favorite thing about the Dream Girl era was the life performance where the mic stand breaks and SHINee uses their epic power of team work to get the mic stand off the stage without breaking a formation. True professionals.

Should react to shinee live performances

[@vivtano9611]

I'm so happy that they're actually talking about their vocals because SHINee has the most diverse and awesome vocals in K-pop. Period.

[@nadz993]

its a known fact in korea that SHINee (&BIGBANG) singing/rap voices are known to the public, because they are all vocally different with a new vocal tone.

[@lunaglow96]

hmmm i think shinee yes but bigbang not really...

[@awesomeness967]

Luna Glow big bang too... i mean i don't stan them but i immediately know who's singing or rapping in a big bang song..

[@vivtano9611]

muffinstripper i beg to disagree. It's not just about the numbers. Sure there are only 5 of them, all of whom are great vocalists and decent rappers at the same time such as Key and Minho. But in other groups with larger numbers, the ratio of vocalists are pretty much the same as SHINee's. And about uniqueness, I meant that there's a distinctive quality in their vocal tone. When you listen to other groups, it's harder to point out who's singing which is not the case in SHINee because of how unique their tone is. You can immediately tell who's who.

[@cyen923]

I agree, the other commentator prolly just used the wrong word. But it does seem that more people/reactors point out Onew, Key, and sometimes Jonghyun to have a unique voice than they do for other artists when they hear them- but again, it's not like Ive watched every reaction video there is but just from what I've observed, SHINee have quite unique and distinctive voices. and they have more developed(?) voices so I can distinguish their voices *much easier* than when I do for other kpop singers in other kpop bands :)

[@chanyexol27]

I love how they appreciated Onew's voice like omg he sounds so heavenly~

[@gggmmm2273]

Onew is Love

[@bpjs6273]

Onew is life

[@m15sr1c3]

Fr, he still sounds good even though they changed the pitch 😍

[@rawreiiiiiii]

taehyvng30 Onew needs more appreciation😤

[@satssatstus]

Onew is everything

[@yokonamigaara]

"They don't fit together, but within themselves they make a lot of sense" That right there is where Shinee's strength lies - They're a group of 5 very different guys, but together they make a wonderful harmony that you wouldn't think would work as well as it does

[@taemojkmt4369]

Completely true... SHINee as a group have such diverse, unique vocals that I am sometimes amazed by how good their harmonisations are.

[@esmeg8689]

:')

[@pikachubread]

i think that line was referring to the different parts of dream girl, haha. but i agree with shinee's strength :) love how they're so unique!! hopefully reactthek can react to shinee's live stages, too ^^

[@largemarge857]

I love hearing people praise onews voice more than anything. He's been my ultimate bias for years and he has my favourite voice of any singer!

[@devratnasari]

Sum up of this video: Yunyi & Kevin "WOW WOW WOOW WOOWW"

[@sunkenblankets]

I'm always curious how people feel about "Why So Serious" because it really seems to be a divisive title track among fans. I personally love it because it's the epitome of like an audible, bright, lemon candy kind of sucker punch. But I can also see how that's just not other people's cup of tea.

[@andreawatts5224]

sunkenblankets I was also surprised because I love that song too! I thought at least one reactor would like it.

[@mabo525]

I know! WSS is a mess, but a good one! Nothing can top 2013 SHINee.

[@irismerah]

I personally love it

[@xchinax13]

I always laugh because it's one of my favorite songs LOL

[@aragona199]

I was super curious how the reactors would take it, because I remember being SO CONFUSED the first few times I heard it. It's more accurate of me to say I love PARTS of it and like the rest. That being said, I honestly cried the first live performance Jonghyun was able to join them, because hello I missed it but also his voice added another dimension to the song.

[@kiwi.25]

"In the next one you might notice that there are four members instead of five" I'm sobbing

[@thekeytomyheart_]

Yessss SHINee's harmonization is THE BEST! Sleepless Nights live oooooooh that gives me chills

Hello!

[@mygucciburned9692]

I loved how effective Why So Serious was to them lol. I mean, I think it was made to sound that way just to get the point of, y'know, "loosen up"? It was kinda ironic looking at them seriously trying to understand the music, while SHINee's just there screaming WHYYYY SOOO SEERIIOUSS 😂😂

[@commedesasteria]

True. Haha. I like wss, cause there are times when I just want to listen to something loud and crazy.

[@givemealeek]

"he's alive!" I'm literally sobbing

[@jtsbbsps8000]

I listened to them before the video and Why So Serious became in INSTANT FAVE of mine and I immediately bought it! I would really recommend people to go to listen to the songs on the MVs!

[@chi2om]

Just listen to their 1 of 1 album. Fucking amazing

[@jellychoo6145]

OMG YES I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG

[@user-co5hn4yn6l]

The high notes in why so serious Always gives me goosebumps

[@shawolinspiritFTW]

I was grinning and nodding the whole time when they talked about Onew's voice. But then again like yeah it's SHINee.. all of the members have different beautiful voices. Also, I find it ironic when they were analysing Why So Serious.. cos for me the title of the song says it all xD Don't be so serious and don't try to make sense of the song, and just enjoy it. The song is so crazy I looooveeee it to death cos SHINee rocked that song anyway. They rocked every concepts and genres tbh

[@lori4021]

I'm too years late but well said 😄

[@Musketeer009]

Loved this video. Nice to see you Classcal music guys feeling incomfortable about 'Why So Serious'. I can understand your nervousness about the song as Classical music tends to be high on structure and musical progressions and suites of intruments doing what they were designed to do. I love 'Why So Serious' because it's just the opposite. It has a freedom that's fun to hear and feel and the surprises it throws at you make it such an interesting song to listen to. I love that thumping base drum and the bass guitar riff churning through the song for all the mad stuff to hang off of. Much preferred it to 'Dream Girl'. Thanks for bringing this song to my attention. It's now in my KPop playlist.

[@tammyv1107]

When reaction channels mention Onew's voice I cry a little... it feels like reliving the moments that made him my bias lol

[@minimalista12]

"idk how they're doing this ... how they can be so edgy but at the same time so lovable" every shinee fan when they found out about shinee

[@junmy]

I was wondering why they sounded different, then read the description... damn SM... they got eyes everywhere.

[@blazexxxii]

So happy these songs were reviewed! In “why so serious?” defense, it’s meant to be all over the place. They were referring to the cookie cutter formations of songs in the industry

[@pia1593]

yeah i stopped the video and realized it's from 2017

[@thewongwayround]

As a classically trained musician myself, i actually feel strongly that WSS is a song that 'improves' upon multiple listens. I didn't like it massively the first time I heard it, but now it's one of my favourites-- not least because of its uncompromising experimentation. It's so SHINee! No other group could pull off this bat-shit crazy pop-funk-grunge-hiphop, zombie-love fusion fest!

[@aquariaaustin2077]

Nothing saves WSS, and it's because Jonghyun wasn't part of it. He would have gotten the arrangement and the mix whipped into shape into better proportions. He also would have added some great vocal runs and gotten the bridge under control. Without him, WSS was a disaster.

[@cayacat19]

Ohh yes yes!!! Shinee and Mamamoo are my favorite harmony groups. SHINee has a lot of weird stuff, but so good damn weird stuff. I've always thought their videos feel lacking compared to their live performances, where they not only show their amazing vocals and harmonies but also solid and astonishing stage presence. I would recommend you to watch their live performances as part of vocalist react to. Songs recommendations; symptoms, like a fire, stranger, excuse me miss, Orgel, One minute back,Odd eye, Onew singing Nessum Dorma and a lot more will pop up if you decide to react to them. 👍🏻

[@djfatih93_ver23]

Caya Trejo this!!👏👏I'm agree when u said SHINee video somehow lacking compare with their live performances. And that is what I like about them. Their live presence is so intense and strong;😍😍😍😍what's set them different with others in content of being live performers. They know how to control the stage and owning their own music like nobody can do better other than themselves and nobody can copy them.

[@okwhatever495]

Harmony. That's the word I would pick if I were to describe SHINee. They have so much harmony, in their fast-paced songs, especially in their slow and romantic songs, extra harmonious when they do acapella. Each voice is unique but blended very well.
