"Look how many people there are here" no Blake 😭 there's only 8 members in Stray Kids, its CGI to make it look like there are doubles of them! If you notice in the video there seems to be 2 teams of the members (different outfits) who are I'm assuming competing to perform in the circus (you can see shots of them watching and kinda sizing up the other teams performance), but at the end they all perform together. There's not 16 members don't worry! 🤣
@@BlakeMcLain The other team is Stray Kids, but they are the clowns, and the other team are ring masters. That's why the clowns outfits are the black and white checkers with the clowns tatoos on their face. Go back and do another run for yourself and you will see.
@@maerim78 wouldn't you say they're the same as the "clown" team tho? The blue outfits have a checkered pattern and I.N's hair is red and blue just like it is when they're wearing the white checkered outfits. Makes me think it's the same team just in different outfits but I could be wrong 🤔
I didn’t even realize that it was an elephant sound! That’s the ingenuity and honestly bravery of Stray Kids-using all types of sounds (elephants, tigers, eagles, sirens, someone reading a list of side effects, car horns, etc) and weaving it all together to create incredible music.
One of the things I really like about Stray Kids music is that they often don't provide what you expect, but go a different way. And it still satisfies my brain
Other groups: uses sounds and samples that you would normally use in music Stray kids: use a door closing, nocking on a door, an elephant sound, ect.....( there is to many to list)
Their concept is like parallel universes so there are 2 versions of them. they have only 8 members :D they have a storyline going on in their mv's so they basicly have a cinematic universe.
this is the reaction i want... a producer. thank you! i'm so proud of stray kids and this is a different feeling since they produce their own songs and it's such a flex if producers compliment their hard work on the song🥺
yesss finallyyyy, i think its safe to say all of us would love if you check out more of their songs, like god’s menu, easy, backdoor, etc, i think it would be rlly interesting to see your opinion on them :)
I totally agree with you Black, StrayKids is just so unique unlike a lot of others and I really love how they self-produced all these unique and amazing songs!! Truly unique and talented !
I love your reaction Blake and you so on Point.. STRAY KIDS are gonna blow up like never before.. They so versatile, talented and all rounders... This is their TIME👊🔥🔥🔥
How have I never noticed that elephant sound in the chorus? Thanks for continuing to react to Stray Kids! It's nice to see someone dissect their endless creativity
My daughter has been listening to Kpop for years. I have always enjoyed listening with her. Some I really liked some not as much. But when she introduced me to stray kids....they are literally my favorite. They are on a different level so you can't compare them to the other groups. I have several favorite Kpop groups. 😁 Great reaction!
Thanks Blake for sharing your honest thoughts on Stray Kids music and saying that they are absolutely leaders. It's great to see someone dissect their music and come out appreciating the hard work that they do to each of the music they come out with.
You talking about how the sounds like the elephant running the possibility of being cheesy made me think of Miroh. Bang Chan the leader and main producer of the group said that their song Miroh started out with much more animal sounds. He talked about there being a elephant sound and a lions roar. I was a little disappointed that they didn’t keep it in but it was probably for the reasons you mentioned. The song isn’t cheesy but it probably could have been if they didn’t take out so much out of those sounds before it reached it’s final form.
Thank you for this reaction! STRAY KIDS are serving us a lot that we can't even think straight anymore!!! Especially the lines of HYUNJIN and FELIX (after Changbin's verse) are living in my head since they drop CIRCUS.
Stray Kids tiene muchas musicas asi de buenas, son lo mejor son duda, tienen su propio estilo. No importa en que idioma canten siempre hace que quedemos inpresionados.
I really learned a good amount of stuff from this video, i really liked circus but you explaining the small details made me appreciate the song more, great reaction! Thank for reacting to Stray Kids!
I agree, Stray Kids is their own entity and leaders in Kpop. I fell down the rabbit hole because of Felix and stayed because of their uniqueness and attitude. I LOVE their attitude! There really is no one like them and they know it. Others can try copy them but they will never be them. ❤
I love your reactions. And I love Skz music LOL. It amazes me how well they do with their Japanise releases. It's not easy to do well a song in an o ther language that's not native to any of them, but Skz do it so well and their Japaniese releases are some of my fav Skz tracks. Thanks for the insight in some of the production site to the track, it was really interesting. Chan, the Skz leader shows us now and again and gives us an insight in his production and arranging process during his Vlive and its always so facinating. 🙂
I would absolutely love it if you reacted to more of their music. I would recommend gods menu (my favourite), freeze, domino, easy, back door, double knot, venom (my second favourite), and victory song. They have a lot of other great songs but those are my favourites that I can think of right now.
I’m always so exited about your reactions, and I agree with you on your opinion about skz. Absolutely Even tho the opportunity of them getting huge and massive is kinda scares me to be honest
Totally agree with Stray Kids having a very unique quality to them. They are sonically different but their attitude while creating and performing is different too. In a market that is so over saturated, being unique is an invaluable quality.
Oh, you have no idea how Lindsey is going to flip for this choreo!! I've already seen a live performance for this from the start of the Maniac tour in Kobe, Japan, and it's INSANE!!! I really hope they drop the dance practice for this ASAP!!!
Tiny background you may even know.... Stray Kids debuted in 2018. There are 8 members and are heavily involved in writing and producing their songs/MV's (especially the 3 original members Bang Chan, Han, & Changbin, aka the 3RACHA). The name "Stray Kids", aka SKZ, evolved to represent the idea of finding a way together out of the ordinary.... I know you're done some of these and I dont have everything on this list ..... Stray Kids songs/MV's suggestions: 1 - God's Menu 2 - Maniac 3 - Venom 4 - Freeze 5 - Backdoor 6 - Miroh 7 - Thunderous 8 - Charmer 9 - All In 10 - Domino 11 - Red Lights. (Bang Chan & Hyunjin) 12 - Cheese 13 - Hellevator 14 - Sorry, I love you (slower) 15 - Winter falls (slower ballad) 16 - Lonely St. (Slower) 17 - Gone Away (slower) 18 - Waiting for Us (slower) 19 - Your Eyes (newest release, slower) There are also some good live performances from their new Seoul concert of some of these songs on the "chan's room" TH-cam channel, including Red Lights performed by all 8 members. Hyunjin also has a couple solo choreographed covers that are so well done... "Play With Fire" is on the Stray Kids channel... and, "Motley Crew" by Post Malone is on Studio Choom's channel & was the Artist of the Month.
Thanks for the introduction. Hadn’t heard them before. Still waiting for you to hit Faouzia. If you want a cool video, the official video for “Puppet” is cool and it’s a dance tempo.
I would love to see your reaction to Seventeen's latest album! They're a group known for being all-rounded, especially with their dancing, but this album was a new kinda style for them that I am I'm love with and would love to hear what you have to say about their new music!
Blake, you're probably not going to see this because your channel is really famous and you get a lot of comments but doesn't hurt to try: It would be really amazing to see you listening to a Stray Kids album, I've been watching you since last year and I just know you would have so much fun listening to their songs. They're amazing producers and the songs are so well produced and so unique, so characteristically THEM. NOEASY is my favorite album, it's a big F* you to the people who mocked their sound and a really versatile album. Oddinary, their last album is also amazing!! Honestly, there's so much of Stray Kids I know you would love. I really really hope you can give a little bit of your time to listen an album of theirs.
I really like your reactions, i don't know to much of music but i learn a lot with you and i really wish you'd react to another kpop groups with different concepts, maybe Ateez, TxT or Enhypen, Itzy... It's just a recommendation to let you know more music 💜
Я так рада, когда слышу от людей, что у skz собственная музыка, что это заметно и отличает их от других кпоп групп! Они действительно творят уникальное, играются со всеми жанрами и стилями, каждый раз прыгают выше головы и делают то, что никто до них не делал. Я уверена, что они завоюют музыкальную индустрию🤟
i’d love to see you reacting to Seventeen's new mv "Hot", i think you'd enjoy them as well ❤️the choreography is just INSANELY SATISFYING and the song is addicting. love your videos! 🥰
I think you’d enjoy ATEEZ as well :) In terms of energy and attitude they’re awesome... Maybe Wonderland, Thanxx, Fireworks, The real, Hala Hala (those are song titles)
i’d love to see you react to Tomorrow X Together (TXT)’s music! they’re such versatile artists, exploring different genres. i’d recommend listening to their new EP, “minisode 2: Thursday’s Child”, which has a mix of rock & hip-hop that i think you’d enjoy 🥰 i’d also recommend listening to some of their other title tracks like “0X1=LOVESONG”, “LO$ER=LO♡ER”, “Blue Hour”, “Can’t You See Me?”, “9 and Three Quarters (Run Away)” and “CROWN” to name a few. the b-side tracks to their albums and EPs are also amazing, a personal favorite of mine are “Fairy of Shampoo” and “Maze in the Mirror”. if you find the time to explore their music, please do!! i look forward to seeing your reaction and hearing your analysis on their music ♥️
Notice also that they prefaced/referenced the inclusion of the classic "Entry of the Gladiators" circus music at the end by featuring multiple chromatic scales throughout the song. Western society has had that tune -- most notably, the scales -- ingrained in our collective consciousness as circus music for a century, but instead of just including the actual song like they did at the finale, they also triggered the recognition in our subconscious by highlighting the scales earlier, incorporating the hint of that circus feel throughout the song, and setting us up for the overt inclusion at the end.

Blake: "The Motley Crew of K-Pop"
STAY:
_"Hyunjin who?"_
One of the things I really like about Stray Kids music is that they often don't provide what you expect, but go a different way. And it still satisfies my brain
this is exactly what is Stray Kids' music like! i love how Stray Kids always go their own way and dont sway by the public!
Fr!!!! I don't even try to guess because they always come out of left field and leave me sitting on my ass, scratching my head and I adore it.
Other groups: uses sounds and samples that you would normally use in music
Stray kids: use a door closing, nocking on a door, an elephant sound, ect.....( there is to many to list)
...sampling on their own vocal adlibs... the guys are geniuses 😁
Their concept is like parallel universes so there are 2 versions of them. they have only 8 members :D they have a storyline going on in their mv's so they basicly have a cinematic universe.
this is the reaction i want... a producer. thank you! i'm so proud of stray kids and this is a different feeling since they produce their own songs and it's such a flex if producers compliment their hard work on the song🥺

Yesssss
Yessssss
yes pls 🐸
Yes Stray Kids, doesnt stick to generic. They're so experimental and I love being surprised by their music.
1:32 you can say it how many times you want, the deserve all the appreciation they get!!
I totally agree with you Black, StrayKids is just so unique unlike a lot of others and I really love how they self-produced all these unique and amazing songs!! Truly unique and talented !
I love your reaction Blake and you so on Point.. STRAY KIDS are gonna blow up like never before.. They so versatile, talented and all rounders... This is their TIME👊🔥🔥🔥
this song is so good thank you for checking it out, would love more stray kids reactions like gods menu, miroh and easy to name a few!!
How have I never noticed that elephant sound in the chorus? Thanks for continuing to react to Stray Kids! It's nice to see someone dissect their endless creativity
Blake you should def react to their Oddinary mini album!
He did!! Its either on YT or his patreon!
My daughter has been listening to Kpop for years. I have always enjoyed listening with her. Some I really liked some not as much. But when she introduced me to stray kids....they are literally my favorite. They are on a different level so you can't compare them to the other groups. I have several favorite Kpop groups. 😁
Great reaction!
I agree, Stray Kids, THEY ARE THAT GROUP!!!!
Pls as stray kids self-produce their songs we would love to have more inputs from producers on their songs
i love when you react to stray kids omgggggg
you're really delivering with all the content these days thank u so much lol
Loved the reaction, thank you!🙌
I love this song so much, glad you reacted to it!
Thanks for reacting! Luv the grit too. Think you are right, they've set themselves apart.
Thanks Blake for sharing your honest thoughts on Stray Kids music and saying that they are absolutely leaders. It's great to see someone dissect their music and come out appreciating the hard work that they do to each of the music they come out with.

Stray Kids are the music geniuses☺️
PLEASE LISTEN TO GOD'S MENU, THUNDEROUS, MANIAC AHHHH
3racha's producing prowess is top notch. Christopher in particular is a creatively big brain trapped in a kpopper's body.
Ooh you should really react to joji’s new single “glimpse of us”! It’s soo good 🥲🥲
Stray Kids tiene muchas musicas asi de buenas, son lo mejor son duda, tienen su propio estilo. No importa en que idioma canten siempre hace que quedemos inpresionados.
They are amazing, I mean the fact that they are self-producers is enough 🤧
