Simon says is one of my fav song ever: Not fitting into societies norms and also NCT not wanting and fitting into typical Kpop stereotypes. NCT is not afraid of trying different genres and embracing their true colors. Love the reaction! Thanks for giving NCT the attention they deserve! ❤️❤️❤️💚🙏🏻
4:45 Yep that’s Mark lol Your take on the song was so accurate 😯👏🏽 Simon says is to ignore rules set by society and to be true to yourself. We usually wear masks (you can see them wearing them in the mv) to fit into society’s norms or hide our true selves. Here they’re talking about rejecting these standards and how their “Vibe Killers” by Simon because of this but they still continue to stay true to their own style of music despite everyone’s opinions. This song resonates with the group as they’re style in music has been judged and even hated on because of how unique and “noisy” (they call their music either “noise” , “construction” and even “pots and pans” music but luckily both the group and their fans have learned to embrace these names) it can be, so what you said was actually really on point!
ahhhhh one of NCT 127's best title tracks, you were really spot on with the meaning!! a really good reaction as always 😌 Fun Fact: This song is from their album "Regular-Irregular" where the first half of the album, it deals with songs in a "regular" state and are more based around predictable reality and is also represented using more typical or "regular" beats. The album then it transitions with an interlude called "Interlude: Regular to Irregular" (they speak in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and English in this interlude huhuhu) that makes you feel like you're really going from reality into more of a dream state. We're then in the "irregular" side of the album which handles more fantasy and dream-like topics accompanied by more experimental beats and less typical sounds. There's also the song "Regular" on this album which is another fan favourite. However, there are two versions; the English and Korean versions. But lyrics wise, they have different meanings. The Korean version is in the "regular" side of the album, and the lyrics are about how unique they are and how hard that have to work to go higher. But then, the English version is in the "irregular" side of the album, and the lyrics are more of a typical flex song, and I'm pretty sure this represents what NCT 127 dream to be rather than what they have as it's in the "irregular" side. So yeah, I obviously love the concept of this album hhhhh
This kind of reaction that I need the most! Not only the visuals, and the beat but also the *MEANING* of the lyrics! Hats off sir. Keep up the good work and do more contents like this. Even its in a different language, but once we all know the meaning, then we all good! thank youu
NCT are my ult group. Ive stanned them for almost 3 year already...and i still learned something new today from your analyzation of the lyrics...Thank you!!!!
Ironically a lot didn't like Simon Says and thought it was a weird song, even more than the rest of nct songs that people usually don't dig. This sounds cheesy but nct sound is unique and ahead of its time, tho things are getting better now with them getting more recognition. Anyway, I really liked your reaction. You, my friend, are an intellectual, not many do their research and look this deep into lyrics. Thank you
thank you for appreciating simon says and for highlighting the fact that nct as a group does not conform to anyone's mold but its own. simon says is like a mantra to me when i doubt myself because of other people's expectations.
I love your reactions. Not only you react to the sound, the song, the MV but most importantly the message behind all of it. This is the purpose of art. Expressing your feeling, your thoughts. Thank you !!
"NCT noise you can't break me" Yes. They're the trendsetter of noise music. And then other boy groups and girl groups start to use noise music too. But like they said, "NCT noise you can't break me". Yes, no one better than NCT for doing noisy music. Plus, nobody better than SM Entertainment for creating "mixed of two and more genre in one music" and they call it SMP (SM Music Performance)
if you like bold idols, you are gonna love ncts yuta. he doesn't take shit, especially not from crazy fans. he's also openly supporting the lgbtq community and speaks up about women's rights. I love him to death. he's also one of the sensitive members. his vocals are heavenly and underappreciated. his voice is a rare occurrence tho, sm doesn't really let him shine. I mean the recent album did well in showing his vocals! I need more tho
I loved this song instantly when it first came out and still one of my fav. The message is so good and so many people don’t even know what it’s about. Also NCT (especially 127) gets a lot of crap and people not liking them because of their experimental sounds/songs and people call it NCT noise which is what they were referencing when they said NCT noise. Thank you so much for not only another NCT reaction, but for taking the time to react to the lyrics and understand the meaning and importance of this song and lyrics
Okay before this reaction vid was uploaded I’d just listen to Simon says like ‘ITS JUST A SONG’ but prolly didn’t realise it had so deep meaning in it. Dude you’re a genius!
I've heard this hundreds of times and as much as I LOVE that line I always got stuck on SIMON (or anyone!) calling NCT a vibe killer when they are the walking embodiment of Vibe. but THIS time it occured to me that it's not Simon (who) SAYS (that) THEY are a real vibe killer its THEM saying "SIMON SAYS" (the orders to conform) that kills THIER vibe. Which makes SO much more sense. Kinda duh moment there.
I am currently binge watching you react to all my Favs (bts, got7, nct, exo, shinee, stray kids, twice, black pink and so many others) When I got into NCT I went in fast and just listened to all the music I was discovering by them, I DID NOT REALIZE THE MESSAGE OF THIS SONG until now. So thank you for taking the time to research and try to understand what they were talking about before watching this. You’ve even taught me something that I didn’t know even though I’ve been listening to them for just about a year now 😊🤙🏼
I subscribed because I really liked your perception of things and I enjoyed hearing you interpreting the song . Thaank youu and good luck in everything you doo
bruuuhhhh im subscribing!!! hands down this is the best reaction i've ever watched in my life. you opened up my eyes on lots of hidden meanings in the song and i just love your interpretation so much. hope you react more to nct because 2020 is nct's year.
i really appreciate how you perceive and listen music from different perspective, i have been listening to Kpop about 10 years now and i feel like u have never thought and appreciate them in the way you look at them👏🏻 keep doing what you doing man its great will always support u and ur channel 👍🏻
Hi, lol. I remember the first time I watched or listened to this song. The starting shocked me because the chanting or yelling at the beginning came from a haka, which my people. Maaori/Māori (The indigenous people of New Zealand) are quite famous for. I remember some Maaori liking it, while others viewed it as disrespectful, I'm pretty sure NCT apologized. For me personally I thought it was pretty cool, but I can definitely see why others saw it as something else.
I tried really hard to not comment before watching the video lol it's been so long since I saw a reaction to Simon says and it made me so excited I love this song the mv and it's message so much :') and I kinda died when you said his head is tiny he must be mark lmao my favorite parts of the video are the scenes they are circling the desk with their masks on and the part where it zooms on mark when his adlib comes on that's just *chef's kiss* and well in the song I really love the bridge also *chef's kiss* thank you for your reaction and thank you for taking time looking up about what you're reacting to and for actually looking for subbed videos not many do that :") take care stay safe
I'm kinda late and since other people already talked about some interesting stuff about this song (and the amazing album which it is from), I'm just gonna recommend other songs that, at least to me, NCT tells people to not mess with them and they're not changing the way they are. So if you want, check out (not the track videos tho, cause they're not the whole song, so it's better to search for the translations, but you may find some that diverge from each other a bit and mistranslations, you know): Sit Down - NCT 127 Mad Dog - NCT 127 Quiet Down - NCT DREAM Stronger - NCT DREAM Misfit - NCT U Unfortunately, I don't remember any from WayV like this right now. Anyway, It's just how I feel about these songs, but other people may disagree lmao. And in most of NCT (all units) songs I feel like they're always trying to send the message to keep trying to be your best self, keep trying to reach your goals and it might show in a few of these songs I mentioned. Anyways, thanks and I hope you check them out and enjoy it!
you have no idea how hilarious it is that you register mark in your mind as the one who has a tiny head. i wont infodump you the context, i just want you to know that the level of amusing that is most certainly exceeds your awareness.
Great reaction bro, great commentary! Please react to their song Regular (Eng. version) and Wayv's Turn Back Time! (Wayv is NCT's chineese sub unit!). Also, Super M's One M&I!
Mark has a tiny head.... Bwahaha that's... Anyways I don't comment on old reactions but I need to make the number of comments 127 so I swear if someone messes it up...
Hi Linton 😊 , can you please react to DPR LIVE TO WHOEVER it was produced by him and DPR CREAM and was written by him in this song he was talking about his life and I really wish to see your reaction to this song 😊 Sorry if I'm wrong I'm not that good in English 😅
Don't apologize! Your English was great!! if you feel comfortable feel free to comment using your native language and I can try my best to translate it :D I just added your recommendation to my list
@@LintonWilson awww ur soo sweet 🥺 thank you for responding wow so this is the feeling when get a response from you I'm just soo happy , again thank you so much for responding 😁
I actually reacted to it afterwards to see if I missed anything visually. I'm reacting to this video in specific because the original didn't have English captions
Can I ask you a stupid question? 😅I just discovere Ntc! Is there a difference between NCT U and NCT 127?? Sorry for this question I am not trying to offend some on🙏
NCT is the name of the group. NCT 127 is the sub-unit located in Seoul (the city's longitude is 127), NCT Dream is a sub-unit that was originally the younger members, NCT U is a rotational unit (it includes whatever members fit the song), and WayV is their sub-unit located in China (named differently due to poor Chinese Korean relations). Hope this helps.
Can you please react to Wayv and nct dream please also can you please react to more guide of them also please react to cup of coffee in Thailand Nct or try not to laugh Nct please
Don't call yourself a Kpopper if you don't know *2NE1:* *Go away* or *Ugly* mv *4Minute:* *Heart to Heart,* *Volume up* or *HuH* mv *F(x) All Mine, Airplane, Red Light, Electric Shock mv* *HyunA:* *Bubble pop* or *Change* mv *G.na**:* *Black & White* or *I'll Get Lost You Go Your Way* mv *BTOB:* *Insane* or *Irresistible Lips* mv *Shinhwa:* *Venus* mv And finally *U-kiss 0330* mv.. thanks~

Simon says is one of my fav song ever:
Not fitting into societies norms and also NCT not wanting and fitting into typical Kpop stereotypes.
NCT is not afraid of trying different genres and embracing their true colors.
Love the reaction!
Thanks for giving NCT the attention they deserve!
❤️❤️❤️💚🙏🏻
But srsly you didn’t just said mark’s head was small hahaha but your right about his name tho
Stop sksnxjsksk 💀💀
LMFAO i honesty think it is too and yet his name sounds like forehead in korean 🤣🤣🤣
but... it's not a lie xD i laughed so hard at that
wang-mori number 1? and chenle 2? help-
Simon Says got me into kpop. the sound, the beat, the overall music are so different from the other kpop songs.
I completely understand the song is so unique. Thank you for sharing Septiani!!
4:45 Yep that’s Mark lol
Your take on the song was so accurate 😯👏🏽
Simon says is to ignore rules set by society and to be true to yourself. We usually wear masks (you can see them wearing them in the mv) to fit into society’s norms or hide our true selves. Here they’re talking about rejecting these standards and how their “Vibe Killers” by Simon because of this but they still continue to stay true to their own style of music despite everyone’s opinions. This song resonates with the group as they’re style in music has been judged and even hated on because of how unique and “noisy” (they call their music either “noise” , “construction” and even “pots and pans” music but luckily both the group and their fans have learned to embrace these names) it can be, so what you said was actually really on point!
"his heads tiny i think thats mark" IM HOLLERINGGGGGGG SJAJAHAHAHAHAHAHSIAJEKAJA
🤣🤣🤣
Simon Says is such an awesome song not only musically but also (and especially) lyrically, easily one of NCT’s best title tracks for sure!
I couldn't agree more Selene !!
ahhhhh one of NCT 127's best title tracks, you were really spot on with the meaning!! a really good reaction as always 😌
Fun Fact: This song is from their album "Regular-Irregular" where the first half of the album, it deals with songs in a "regular" state and are more based around predictable reality and is also represented using more typical or "regular" beats. The album then it transitions with an interlude called "Interlude: Regular to Irregular" (they speak in Korean, Japanese, Chinese, and English in this interlude huhuhu) that makes you feel like you're really going from reality into more of a dream state. We're then in the "irregular" side of the album which handles more fantasy and dream-like topics accompanied by more experimental beats and less typical sounds.

there were so many nctzens that paid this song dust when it first came out, personally it's one of my favorites from nct as a whole
I love your reactions. Not only you react to the sound, the song, the MV but most importantly the message behind all of it. This is the purpose of art. Expressing your feeling, your thoughts. Thank you !!
More nct please!!
"NCT noise you can't break me"
Yes. They're the trendsetter of noise music. And then other boy groups and girl groups start to use noise music too. But like they said, "NCT noise you can't break me". Yes, no one better than NCT for doing noisy music. Plus, nobody better than SM Entertainment for creating "mixed of two and more genre in one music" and they call it SMP (SM Music Performance)
if you like bold idols, you are gonna love ncts yuta. he doesn't take shit, especially not from crazy fans. he's also openly supporting the lgbtq community and speaks up about women's rights. I love him to death. he's also one of the sensitive members. his vocals are heavenly and underappreciated. his voice is a rare occurrence tho, sm doesn't really let him shine.

Unpopular opinion: I love Simon Says and prefer this to Regular
