Listening Party: Stray Kids "Clé: Levanter" Album Reaction - First Listen

[@elenymm]

Han wrote Sunshine in L.A. last May. Knowing about his anxiety issues makes the song's lyrics especially bittersweet.

[@gabriellelewis2345]

Sunshine is my favorite

[@dyartae]

Dubravka hey! i‘m new to stray kids and i don’t know THAT much 😅 can you please help me out? i mean- what anxiety did he have? btw i really love sunshine 🥺

[@elenymm]

@@dyartae it seems like it's just proximity of large number of people that gets to him. Chan said he's been going through it for a long time but it was really obvious when they got mobbed at the airport one time. He really didn't look well. Fortunately, it doesn't affect his performing so he continued to do promotions on music shows for the album but he didn't do most of the fan signs and stuff like that. He is, officially, the only introvert in the group and he's said a lot of the times that his high energy on stage comes from the guys and the fans. So, when he's with his people he's good.

James Green literally, road not taken finishes with “막막해도 I will never” y STOP starts with “stop”

Bang Chan b creepin all over twitter apparently. He knows things we think he doesnt know. What a good leader. And honestly all the Cle albums were amazing, they work so hard. And even tho its really sad that Woojin left, SKZ is doing well, and im glad theyre pushing forward even though its bittersweet. Definitely excited for what theyre gonna do this year.

"there is a sentimental sadness to the lyrics, but finding a beauty within the sadness..." I think... it's perfect words to describe songs which are made by Han. "I see", "19" and now "Sunshine".... his songs are always like that. Sad but soft. Like found beauty in the darkness, like small silence place in the chaos... and like a innocent dream in the noisy life of big anxity self-deception. And it always give same vibe during the listening. Having modest smile on face but with a melancholy in the heart.

Wait a minute, is mixtape #5 on the album only?

[@elenymm]

Chances of them taking a break are slim to none. They've shown us snippets of several unpublished songs that all seem like they could be progressions into the new sound. I think they already know, at least in part, where they're going. Full album coming late spring, early summer probably. (Which is a long time between comebacks for them). Japanese debut in March, the tour... Busy boys, well fed fandom. Let's get eat! 😁

i've been following stray kids since predebut and yet i've never had a favourite song, but immediately after listening to sunshine i was like "yep, this is my favorite song from them and will always remain superior."

[@ghesliancarla.ambalong2345]

stop is the continuation of their another title track in side effect which is "Road Not Taken"

[@sheilavaidy]

Astronaut has an mv that I'd love for you to check out. Also as much as its an upbeat, bright song, its very emotional for me and a lot of Stays because it's the first mv they released after Woojin left and in the video you can even see woojin sometimes where they didnt completely crop him out

[@agisaprili]

Han wrote Sunshine by himself alone!!! I am a proud mom here. Yessss it's warm, heavenly feeling

[@lillyxno]

Can you please also listen to their first OST “Neverending story” pleasee

[@jim6363]

Listening to sunshine, it gave me a feeling of introspection... but not a kind of sad introversion, but one of those days you think about life a lot and how it works, a feeling of being alone with yourself, speaking to your own soul trying to figure things out...

[@sungshineev8732]

I want to point out how much I love the difference in how Changbin ends his prechorus in Astronaut those 2 times. The first time it’s like he’s shouting it into excistence and that he wants to go. whilst the second one is softer, like he is cherishing the moments he’s having and will have and like he found the place he wanted to go? Idk that’s what I always think, it makes me sigh in satisfaction every time.

[@BunnyRea13]

I wonder if he's listened to their first OST Neverending Story, it's honestly beautiful.

hey Pd! Just a few things - stop is a continuation for ‘ Road Not Taken’ in their previous album- clé 2 : yellow wood - There is an M/V for both Astronaut and You Can Stay - Sunshine was a song, that jisung wrote in about 2/3 hours in LA, knowing that has a bit of bittersweetness to it. - SKZ has a song called ‘ Neverending Story’ from a drama ost + released another m/v called ‘ Gone Days’ we hope you’d react to them soon!

Stop is the continuation to Road not taken, if you play road not taken first and then stop, is literally a whole song, and if you listen to road not taken chorus, it says something about stop(sorry I don't know korean fjskkfks) and in stop, the chorus says I'll go wherever I wanna go, so yeah fkskkd sorry for my english

[@thekarlakbays1606]

I really liked Stray Kids since I heard Hellevator but I've honestly taken a break after I Am Who. I bought tickets to Unveil Tour here in Manila last year but I wasn't able to come. I wished I attended. More so because Woojin left. While listening to You Can Stay, I srsly thought about Woojin and how he'll always be part of Stray Kids. That made me so emotional.
