[@ITGURU922]

My fave part of this video is Jonghyun serving face while posing with the Porsche 😂💕

Captain taking me back to 2010! This and Ring Ding Dong were the first Kpop songs/videos I was introduced to and it’s still one of my favorites. It’s a little bittersweet since we just celebrated what would’ve been Jonghyun’s 33rd birthday a few days ago. I miss him but I still love hearing his voice so much. My Shawol heart is full. ❤️

[@MILADA_2022]

I love this crazy Ring Ding Dong song. 😂....miss Jonghyun's voice too. ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/oZiZdnifZ8mZpqc&ab ) If you miss old kpop vibe I recommend these guys, TAN (티에이엔) 'Fix YOU' kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJW4oKdtd6yjd9k&ab_channel=TAN-Official And a few others. 😊I also like that many kpop idols are good actors too. 황민현 (HWANG MIN HYUN) ‘Hidden Side’ - kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5DYqYeDaJJ8hMU&ab_channel=HYBELABELS TNX - 'Love or Die' - kzbin.info/www/bejne/m4rTYaaGoMiVi7c&ab ONEWE(원위) 'GRAVITY' - kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpnIiKx8f5uVqaM&ab_channel=ONEWE (Coogie)의 신보 Alone (feat. 이하이)’, ‘Fallin’’ - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aWjLdZ2wit95h8U&ab QM - COME TO MY STU (Feat. 릴러말즈) ㅣ30분 연속 듣기ㅣ가사포함 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/sKqygnyPh9p0aM0&ab 노아주다 (noahjooda) - 힙합보단 사랑, 사랑보단 돈 (Feat. 베이식) - kzbin.info/www/bejne/maXLY52ga7xgisk&ab_channel=OUTLIVEofficial LØREN - 'Folks' - kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYSTeqCJfrdkd5I&ab_channel=THEBLACKLABEL CUBE · 황민현 - kzbin.info/www/bejne/gZu1fZiso8engrc&ab_channel=HWANGMINHYUN-Topic

This song is amazing and is also in an episode of a TV series called 'lucifer'. I love the music and the beat also I love the choreo and everything about it as its just so catchy. Also my bias is Taemin and wrecker is the late Jonghyun (may he rest in peace)

In SHINee's "Lucifer" MV the "smoke" or "light trail" you see is supposed to represent the aura of a girl who has devilish powers like Lucifer, who is trying to possess them and take over their lives. As the English lines in the song say, "Loveaholic, robotronic ... her whisper is the Lucifer." (They are using auto tune because they are supposed to be "robotronic"-ly controlled by the girl who is "The Lucifer." So the auto tune is meant to make them sound robotic.) In other words, the woman or girl they are talking about is so desirable that she is like Lucifer and you have to use all your willpower just to resist her wiles. In the MV you see them trying to fight against Lucifer's powers and resist her attempts to try to make them bend to her will, etc. That's why in the choreography you see all the robotic moves because they are showing how "Lucifer" is trying to control them like a robot. For example, they put their wrists together like they are being handcuffed to show how she is trapping them, and they vibrate to show how they are being manipulated by "Lucifer" and they are trying to resist her powers, etc. (FYI: That vibration you saw them do is 100% them actually shaking like that, there aren't any camera tricks. If you pay attention when they perform Lucifer live, you will see them do that exact same thing. :D) LOL we have no idea why they had to be dancing in front of a sports car, but that was kind of an iconic thing that Kpop companies did back then in a lot of their MVs, The group would dance around a fancy car to show off their coolness and to give the video a more futuristic, expensive looking aesthetic. "Lucifer" was released in 2010, so this was just the look that a lot of MVs had back then, in part because everyone was following SHINee's lead. Just take a look at TVXQ's, Super Junior's, Infinite's or 2PM's MVs, etc. from around that time and you will see a similar look and style. SHINee was setting trends in the industry with 'Lucifer." As trendsetters it is SHINee's job to introduce the next song style and dance trend to the industry, and when SHINee has a comeback the industry takes note and follows suit. It is said that within 3 months of SHINee's comeback you will see that same sound, style and dance trend being duplicated across the industry for both boy groups and girl groups. That's how influential SHINee is. I'm not sure why people are often so thrown by their hairstyles and outfits in this MV. :D I think they are actually all pretty cool for doing something different that sets them apart from everyone else in the industry. That is what makes SHINee legends and why "Lucifer" is such an iconic song and dance.You're not going to remember a group or a song if they look and sound the same as everyone else, you remember them for standing out and not being afraid to be unique. SHINee are also known for never being afraid to experiment with everything they do, including their style, and as the fashionista and stylist of the group, Key is always looking for ways to be unique, so his head was really shaved on the one side. What you see is his hair was bleached blond on the side and then shaved down to his scalp. He is known for always being unique and wanting to stand out. That's why Key's style is often just straddling the edge of outrageous, but somehow always manages to look cool. Fun fact: I think one reason why Minho's hair is so short at this time is because their previous comeback was with their song "Ring Ding Dong," and all the members had pretty long, shaggy hairstyles. However, Minho has never liked having long hair. So, I think for "Lucifer" Minho decided to rebel and go really short. This was also the era where Taemin had long hair and it made him one of the most popular of the members at the time, especially with their Japanese fans. The Japanese culture really embraces men with long hair and the members said that he was one of the most popular at the time because of his style. Taemin with long hair is so iconic and many in the fandom were really sad when he eventually cut his hair. So, in this MV, Taemin had just turned 17. Onew and Jonghyun are 20 and Key and Minho are 18. If you want to see where SHINee truly shines, if you haven't yet, you have to check out their iconic performance of "Lucifer" Live in concert. Check out their performance at their SHINee World Concert III (SWC3) in Seoul from 2014, kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJ6Yn2uHZ72CaZY. This is a perfect example of how you can tell they are singing live and killing it every time. SHINee doesn't need auto tune, and if you hear them perform the song live, they often don't use it. "Lucifer" is actually known as one of the most difficult songs and dances to cover because of its tutting and popping and for the fact that it has a very fast paced beat with dance moves that are very sharp and precise which are designed to hit every beat of the song. And the song itself is very complicated with the songs wide range of notes and flow. Many amateurs have thought "Lucifer" looks like one of SHINee's more simple songs and dances. But the minute they try to sing the song and/or dance the choreography, they soon discover that it is way more complicated than they thought. It only looks and sounds simple, because SHINee makes it look that way. Check out this clip of SHINee teaching a group of actors and comedians "Lucifer" as part of a challenge on the variety show "Invincible Baseball Team," kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4WvdH5tgMd_q9U and kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoeTY5aHrL5_g7M. It's funny because when they came to meet SHINee to start the practice, Jonghyun asked them why they chose this song of all songs, and they said because it looks manly and they thought it was fairly easy to cover. But the first thing Jonghyun said to them, while laughing, was "oh no, actually it's one of our more difficult choreography and it took us extra time to really perfect it." :D You definitely should check out the dance practice. SHINee's "Lucifer" dance practice was the very first dance practice video ever released specifically for fans. SHINee is the group that started the trend and their "Lucifer" dance practice video is why dance practice videos are even a thing today. :D It was the very first dance practice video to go viral. Back then dance practice videos were filmed for the group and artists to watch to help them remember the moves and to fix mistakes, etc. They weren't intended for a mass audience. But SM realized that fans were starting to try and copy SHINee's choreography, so they decided to film a dance practice and release it to the public. SHINee's dance practice videos became so popular that other companies and groups started to do the same and show off their choreography by releasing dance practices too.

I like the dance practice of this. Taemin's psychedelic shirt.

[@rubygalvezrl]

Shawol forever!

[@taritreat6621]

R.I.P at least he is in good hands and I still miss him like crazy every time I watch a video with him in it.

[@KootchLB]

Thank you for this reaction, Roscoe. It's a bit of a poignant watch, seeing Jonghyun and the talent that was lost to music when he passed away. Aside from that, Young Minho and Taemin are just so cute. I discovered Shinee through Minho in Hwarang (same series where I discovered V). I think Taemin would have just recently completed his military service, so we will soon have new music from this group.

[@TamaraPanera]

Liked this song a lot! I love hearing new (to me) K Pop. Thank you! 💜

[@Bludreamgirl]

My baybees..... I still can't help but get that feeling like I met them too late. 😭 RIP jonghyun... That's part of why I don't tolerate online bullying anytime I see it. ..... Just ugh no one harmonizes like that anymore...

[@cindypoole6792]

At least Taemin's was a wig. But, Key actually cut/shaved his head. SHINee has always been edgy. That's why they're GREAT! Roscoe, you make me laugh with the Jennifer hair and Bilbo Baggins. OMG!

[@thrililakeyho3270]

Shinee was so good back than and still on top now

[@niyetz228]

Shinee❤❤❤❤❤ thank u for the reaction 😊

[@jinxxkirkpatrick2016]

I remember trying to learn the choreography to this in my friends basement in like 2012, just middle school outcast things 😂

[@eleonorestuart4089]

Love this song…and Shinee❤❤❤

[@qiaoyeeyean]

If you are really into Lucifer, you could check out their live concert version, legit

[@schmookiekookie7700]

@Roscoe I literally just laughed out loud😂🤣😂 “Someone’s been watching Jennifer Aniston”

[@KathySwampQueen]

💜

[@silviamunoz6863]

I met Shinee after watching Hwarang (Kdrama with V), there I met Minho and... well I have a lot of their songs in my playlist! Particularly Ring ding dong, Don't call me and Advice (Taemin's solo)

[@KimYena2307]

Plz keep reacting on Shinee ! really like your professional point of view 👌 ❤

[@possibly_a_sign_from_God]

Honestly the only thing that tops the mv is the live performance, specifically this one (it includes Ring Ding Dong as well) kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6WpfGp8rbCXgtUsi=HQXoG0Rm6IBnHz5T

[@fatmaaylan252]

Jonghyun 😢💔

[@Cansubirşeylerçeviriyor]

I am shawol❤😂

[@diegoanthonyherrera9952]

old kpop, basically most of the looks into the first kpop era and the second one, based on JAPANESE visual kei, anime like look and sort others subcultures there in Japan, and of course copied by the rest of Asians. around 1990 to this day. the music is just pop mixed from USA, UK, Asia, etc. And is all copy just like they copy the favorite sport in that country, (USA teaching) BASEBALL. Is all.

[@rania3971]

Shinee and NCT are my top groups i also recommend key and taemin solo work ❤

[@BlueNightShineeWorld25508]

Check out shinee's entire discography and solo work you won't ever regret taking the journey through their entire discography and solo work. Their live concerts and performances are even better than their recorded vocals. Their 15th debut anniversary is May 25th and they will be having their comeback and releasing their new album
