Reacting to Red Velvet 레드벨벳 'Birthday' MV + album b-sides

[@sb1363]

I wanna go to a RV concert where this is the opening song, and they declare it's everyone's birthday and the concert is the party.

[@SirAustin]

That would be iconic. LOL

[@EpicGabby24]

They need to finally tour. Like what is SM doing. Everyone has been doing it 😭

[@Cecil1213]

@@EpicGabby24 That's exactly why they wouldn't, it would be doing it at the same time and it would lower sales cause a lot of people save for concerts it would make sense to do it after

[@OpinionatedMatt]

Or, I want to go to a Red Velvet concert period. 💀

[@EpicGabby24]

@@Cecil1213 I understand that of course. I didnt say they need to do it or even announce it this year. It's just that there is not even talks of one or no anticipation created for it. It just seems like a lost cause :/

[@winterinjuly4901]

You know it’s gonna be a good song when Wendy gives you a piece of her mind at a start of a song lol. And Zoom is that song lol

[@dizzymcdizz]

In the countdown live they said "BYE BYE" is a break up song and that the decending "byyyye" was a very confusing melody for them to sing. But they repeatedly hounded it home as a break up song, telling reveluv "if your going to break up sing this" 😆 The album is 100000% a NO-SKIP album. So happy to have them back!

[@puthaycrabzz7478]

birthday is a skip im sorry. the rest of the album is so good

[@CericcReacts]

“On A Ride” and “ZOOM” are definitely my favorites! I didn’t fully know what to expect going in, but none of the songs disappointed.

[@SirAustin]

ZOOM is still my fav. But Birthday gets better every time 😂🎂

[@gwnshin_enter]

Same

[@kittyangelzzz6512]

When Wendy speaks in English, she sounds like a hockey bro from Oshawa, ON. Very ambiguous connection, but I can't unhear it.

[@Bryan-qz2zv]

Zoom is giving me Growl vibes by EXO, Wendy flexin her vocals as always.

[@cheslavo]

Wendy slayed that vocal in BYEBYE ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@violetchemistry_]

this is truly a no skip album for me. starting with crazy birthday track, then a bittersweet bye bye with amazing instrumental and production going to on a ride which is a very fun song with great irene vocals at the end, then the queen of the album zoom with mind blowing vocals from wendy, old red velvet style great rap verses from joy/irene/yeri and closing the birthday festival with celebrate, a very beautiful, sad and touching song. i think each member shined on this album on certain songs, but yes, i absolutely agree with you that sm NEEDS to give wendy a full album of songs where she just destroys the recording studio with the power of her vocals

[@vernonscat4655]

Now that you've listened to both the 2022's The ReVe Festival EPs, I think it would be a perfect time to go back to their 2019's The Reve Festival EPs (Day 1, Day 2, and Finale)!

[@thezircadia]

Oh gosh yes, like I don't care about them doing the Reve Festival concept but the album naming convention makes it SO CONFUSING. But yes, with Red Velvet you never know what you're going to get (except good music) so not every song may be your favorite... I feel like that is a price worth paying for the wide range of great quality music and always being inventive.

[@S39-t1c]

Red Velvet just doing the most Red Velvet this to do again which is to releasing the best Bsides out there 💗💛💙💚💜

[@Verlfled]

I saw the light when I heard their vocals on Bye Bye 😭💜💜 RV showing everyone how it’s done!

[@_yan_x]

I'm 100% sure they had so much fun recording this album, look how happy they are. Love this album 💘

[@strawberryning330]

yeah, even on their live they all have good energy.

[@fishheadnoodle]

wendy is just amazing.. she really stands out vocally

[@jeremyseludo8568]

B-sides QUEEN!!!

[@Sunset553]

This song sounds ideal to play on Jan 1, when Koreans celebrate everyone’s birthday. They wish each other Happy Birthday and then call themselves that upcoming age all year. So even with a birthday in November, you would’ve been called this current age all year. Corrections welcome. From the lyrics and video, I have no idea lol

[@riffgroove]

I think that's the inside joke of that scene... Literally the only person Wendy could win a game of "rock-paper-scissors" against would be Edward Scissorhands.

[@georgef286]

It’s all about them being the Intergalactic Super witches 😂

[@taengoonim]

Red Velvet is still the Queen of B-sides, title tracks aren't always easy to digest but definitely theyre growers, gets better once it hits you 😄

[@iMayaraCipriano]

If u notice ALL their MV's has a witchy vibe. Like a Cult. They're always doing circles or around a table like doing some ritual or something like It. That's their concept. But you only notice If u pay attention.

[@SpinelSunSupMay]

My favorite in this album is Zoom > Bye Bye > Celebrate. After RVV Concert Zoom is really growing for me. This channel record the performance from their concert in Seoul well. Many B-Side from the last 3 mini-albums were in this concert. Recommend Pose kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3PanISafK2Fis0 Zoom kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGWwgqyEorKYjZI Beg For Me kzbin.info/www/bejne/rZKqoYCDqtObjbs Bamboleo kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5nIk2etnLaqsKc The dance-choreographer of these performance are one that always work with Seventeen.

[@Natasha-26]

RED VELVET WILL FOREVER BE THE CONCEPT QUEENS.❤️🧡💙💚💜

[@leadan5170]

1:48 you know it has to be creepy or weird or other way it’s not really Red velvet 😭

[@Aveiro7587]

I love RV so much ❤

[@mcneeeeeil]

YESSSS THAT’S IT! the descending melody is where the haunted carnival vibes really kick in. i couldn’t articulate it before. i feel like that carnival, carousel, fair vibe is carried throughout the album. really going with the velvets being a in a travelling circus that visits your town and wreaks chaos.

[@clajm1225]

reve festival ended with psycho already but since reve (the character in their world/lore) doesn't want it to end, reve created more imaginary story and that is why we have reve festival 2022. i really love this album!! on a ride is my fave bside

[@RVtillDie]

I mean, from the very start they state it as a never ending festival, so it really never end

[@gail1015]

I totally get you. I wasn't sure about the songs the first time I listened to them. But now I think this is my favorite RV album. The songs are just soo good the more I listen to them.

[@AznIntegra521]

Birthday they sampled George gershwin rhapsody in blue and bye bye they sampled Beethoven’s fur elise

[@ralsie4724]

When I Say I LOVE IT when you show your vocal coach abilities I really mean it like that's so cool 5:21

[@letthemeatkpop]

Wendy is cementing herself as an all time greatest this year. What a woman.

[@deecoderrv6587]

RV never fails with B-Sides. Give me chills every single time!

[@slowchan]

Imagine how cool would be "zoom" as a title track with the mv!

[@sunnysun9641]

In their live for the album release they said this album was really for reveluvs, like the vibe of it, and that celebrate seemed to be a song made for fans

[@bels5779]

They did the live version of Celebrate, i'd love to watch your reaction of it and also "Time to love". Please do, love you Austin.

[@coleen8056]

I really love your commentaries sir Austin! 🥰🤍

[@kajah7543]

It's the way I'm always waiting for your reaction for red velvet.

[@yoshi3794]

hey austin! thanks for another amazing video, I've really been enjoying everything you've been putting out and I'm super glad you enjoyed this banger of an album (zoom is my personal favourite too!) I was also thinking, I'd like to suggest an idea of making a top songs type of video(s) in the future? things like your top 10 from the month, top mvs, top 50 songs from the year etc... something of that sorts. totally optional! but I think it's fun to see which songs you went back to and vibed with the most by the end of the year, as sometimes songs you don't think are your favourite from an album after initial listen can randomly become your absolute obsessions, so I think it would be fun to see which songs stuck to you the most. either way, I'll definitely continue tuning into your videos, thanks again! can't wait for the next one

[@ph19964]

Again this album is made for Wendy’s vocal flexing

[@OpinionatedMatt]

3:20 yeah the outfits are really good too. And hair and makeup, really cool.

[@ae-karinasunbaenim2819]

I'm laughing while listening to On a ride on my first listen coz I feel so confused ahhaahah This is a RIDE

[@hypeboy2493]

bye bye's bridge is just ✨chef kiss ✨

[@mellowmead]

“why are we in a birthday pentagram” 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@CoOkieFace327]

Happy belated birthday!!!! Loved this video!

[@elh7149]

i also absolutely love the lyrics to Zoom! Zooming through past moments like you have superhuman memory and then "stop in front of a suspicious scene", "step forward (into the memory!)", "dig up evidence" etc. The imagery was there even without knowing Korean... As a linguistics student/nerd I really like taking songs apart and translating them word by word to learn and I have been meaning to do this for Zoom :))) anyway gonna close this out by saying i am so gay for wendy

[@SEULAVEGI]

21:49 I don’t know but that lines SOOOOOGOOOD!

[@ririnyuli8357]

Same, Zoom my favorite song at this album

[@celestisima]

I'm listening the bsides with you for the first time 🥰 I loved Birthday 🔥💕

[@ijlaalahmedh6106]

The bsides are Amazing

[@imjustbeme6984]

thank u sir for this reaction🫶

[@wallaceavila6560]

at first listen i was a bit disappointed by the verses and the bridge, bc i loved the pre chorus and the chorus, but as i kept listening, the song really grew on me. however, i must say that i wish we had a strong vocal bridge or at least more beltings/runs/ad-libs at the last chorus, just bc i loved rv's bridges and vocals in general, so i'm not completely sold on this only instrumental type of bridge 🥲💟

[@wiwiastuti2717]

Thank you for reacting

[@neomneomgyu3607]

it's a first for me here in ur channel, the "i'm homosexual" part took me aback(in a good way!) ilysm for that 😭‼️💗

[@hopegil8690]

On a Ride is such a fun song 😆🫶 It's also one of the least fave by most fans but it's making me move 🤣🤌

[@hopegil8690]

I agree Zoom is the best. The title track potential is so strong. ✨

[@SpinelSunSupMay]

Thanks!

[@Imosshie14]

I think its .. 8 notes? ♥ Hi Sir! I miss you so much! Belated happy birthday ♥ As for Bye Bye it reminded me of Fur Elise? Beethoven. It sound similar. 🥰

[@ignaciojoelnexlsoncanas29]

Kpop industry makes too many eps and single albums. It's not like these companies don't have money enough to make full albums

[@begum.c7025]

Its been a long time since im here👍🏼

[@SeulgiAngryAbs]

The rainbow birthday pentagram killed me and right after "they're so gay" I luv you for that, had a good time watching you ❤

[@iri.baebae]

Yeeeees! Zoom is so gooood! 💕

[@jazalea]

3:08 me thinking ITS RED VELVET but ITS WEIRD 😂 its not red velvet if it aint weird 😂

[@ireneserrano4570]

The bridge in "Bye Bye" begins like a Zimzalabim 2.0

[@BarbiePeachy1]

my favorite song is bye bye 🥰

[@earthcitty]

I really like Birthday, Zoom, Bye Bye, and Celebrate is fine (it sounds like an OST). I agree with you Sir Austin, and I just cannot stand On A Ride, I have tried SO hard to like it, but just no (this is the first RV song I have EVER not liked). Reve Festival 2022 is my no skip album and Wildside/FMR are the dual winners for the Title Tracks of 2022. Birthday is great but FMR/Wildside are S Tier epics. I cannot wait for the next comeback, RV never disappoints.

[@NathyIsabella]

isn't Bye bye like Für elise or some melody like that?? And that's what's making people confused because they expect something and it just doesn't go exactly like that... Lol Wendy is just flexing her vocals on us again... I love the idea of "I need a Wendy solo where they just let her go off" 🤣

[@nekocat3296]

Someone pointed out that the beginning of the chorus of Bye-Bye sounds like the beginning of Für Elise

[@OpinionatedMatt]

25:33 here to check if Celebrate will stay in the RV playlist or not Edit: eh, for now.

[@peaceoutsmile]

Most of this album could be title tracks.

[@MrK-bh8sd]

RV is known to have a cult/coven theme since peek a book. I'm in a cult mom!

[@OpinionatedMatt]

Petition to make Birthday the official congratulatory song for the memes

[@KSU2203]

This album is really great, Wendy it's just 💘 Are you going to check out æspa girl 'album' and BLACKPINK 'BORN PINK' ?🤗

[@OpinionatedMatt]

The audacity to bounce Red Velvet tho

[@jomartoledo7510]

Sir Austin you almost forgot the NCT 127 comeback 2 months ago the song called “2 BADDIES” it is a full album by them the b-sides are so good hopefully you react to that still waiting for your reaction

[@zaquan2219]

Zoom reminds me of exodus and thunder ngl

[@OpinionatedMatt]

8:27 👀 9:30 LMFAO 😂

[@classmonitorbot8295]

I'm also confused with all the "reve: festival" titles .. lols like is this a continuing arc or somethin'

[@carolingwj]

yay bit random but by any chance can we get super M - M topia on patreon or on ur website I just miss ur exo/nct reactions

[@OpinionatedMatt]

10:00 I agree BD > FMR

[@تيثلااَ]

Austin i am still waiting for u to check got7 🙈🙏🏻

[@pudgiibae8784]

💖💛💙💚💜🎉🎊

[@abdullah-e3g3v]

you should react to itzy’s new mini album !!

[@bruno6964]

Hmm. Unfortunately for me, Birthday is top from the album. Bday is 10/10. Hope others grow on me.

[@ijlaalahmedh6106]

On a ride sounds like build a bitch

[@midnightxgem6147]

This one was sadly another miss for me, though I did like the chorus the most and from most comments I saw today, this is the part people usually dislike the most in this song lol

[@fharladongcoy7257]

I'm waiting for your reaction to NCT dream's comeback.

[@kenishaholder9253]

Wendy already has a solo album

[@luviemoo]

he means another one (and like water is only a mini album)

[@marinateixeira3637]

man can't wait to see you listen a Twice album, specially Fol and Ewo... I really love your reactions and I really want to see you listening them as a vocal coach, talking about vocals, beat, high notes, frie, vibrato and all that stuff Love from Brazil 💜

[@omirakoo]

I freakin love this album but these lyric videos are so stupidly incorrect lmao

[@louiseblaire]

You look tired, please take care of yourself.
