Yeahhh everyone has been saying that this sounds like an old school SM songs like ones you'd hear for SHINee or TVXQ. The songwriter known to be SM's genius, KENZIE who did work for those groups so that's probably why. I really dig this song. It's dramatic, mysterious, romantic. It adds more color to NCT discography, especially title tracks
The thing is that SM likes to trying out new kinds of music and that's including sometimes go back because it's refreshing songs since in these days kpop starting to sound somehow the same, SM doing something really smart for changing the kind of songs that they release i think in this point they making their idols shine from different ways and i guess that this is attractive for a lot of people that listening to kpop or makes them know how kpop was before what it is today. About the song i heard it some times by now but i really feel connected with the chorus of the song, it's really nice and the melody is really addicting
This sound is actually nct 127 going back to one of their older title tracks "Limitless" (Favorite was written by the same producer that made that song), with great raps, melodic choruses and IMPECCABLE harmonies. Oh they never fail to amaze me
the dance break it's only for stages live! it's not in the official audio u right :) thank u for ur reaction to nct,always nice to hear ur opinions on them !
I love how the whistle sound is prominent within the whole song, it's really addictive. THIS SONG REALLY HAS 2ND GEN VIBE FEELS IN IT ESPECIALLY THE CHORUS AND BRIDGE
To be honest, this is my first time seeing NCT 127 realllly liking their own song that much. They think it’s easy to hear and they are really excited to promote it. And, for me it’s amazing, I love it so much😍 Thank you for the reaction
Well, when they were asked which is their favorite release and Taeil answered "Dreams come true", you kinda have a hint that the neos and the nctzen don't have the same taste in music ! 😄
i love this side of nct if u haven’t i recommend limitless (their best title track imo why does no one ever recommend it 😭) it’s kinda similar to favorite in that it’s a little different from their usual sound but the way i fell in love w favorite chorus reminded me of when i fell in love w limitless chorus
Overall, this song is so BEAUTIFUL and SAD. The lyrics "I want to hurt even more desperately"...the way they sang it with emotions...and the way the song builds up in DESPERATION.
Favorite still has that NCT sounding formula. NCT sounding is all about intense hiphop beat/heavy rap at the verse and then it turns into clear vocal showcase/melodic RnB section at the prechorus/bridge. It's not always experimental that has sudden mood/genre switch. But the thing is, Favorite still has that unique NCT sound that can mix that sad melancholic whistle sounding with electronic dance track which is awesome. Idk whether i should cry or dancing while listening to this hahaha
Exactly! Agreed with what you said. I like this song very much but what throws me off is their choreography. It feels so sharp but the song sounded melancholy to me 😅
This genre is SMP 😂 *SMP Genre* (SM Music and Performance) Part of what sets the company apart from the others in the industry is that their artists perform in the SMP genre - a style of music that is unique to SM Entertainment acts. A term coined by the company in the mid-90's with H.O.T, SMP combines rock and R&B with hip-hop beats allowing for very strong dance performances.
i'm not very familiar with kpop old school either, but everyone does say favorite gives those vibes! aside from KENZIE, the backbone of SM herself, one of its main producers, darkchild, is also the brain behind lots of 00's bops.. he worked with Backstreet boys, Spice girls, Destiny child, MJ.. i mean man certainly knows how to make it feels nostalgic!! Favorite is one of his THREE works only in kpop, NCT really that bitch lol y'all should give a listen to baekhyun's Diamond btw
U gotta listen to all of their beside tracks, this is also their genre. Its just they're makin it romantic dramatic tittle track this time. This is still the experimental sound of nct127 💚💚💚
Omg Aaron doesn't even know how versatile NCT 127 are xD they have very different genres, especially on the b-sides. But for title tracks they had 'Touch' which is super soft
It's because lately most chorus parts doesn't even have melody - only beats and catchy phrases and repeat it like four times and bang - chorus done. This is refreshing for us to hear back the real chorus of a song ahah. Love it.
The song is written by the same composer who wrote NCT 127's Limitless. If you listen to limitless, I think you can get similar feeling to favourite (the 90s, early 2000s sound).
not surprised because NCT HAS everything. they can do anything and it turns out very interesting and also standout. I'm okay with all opinions as long as they're honest, polite, and thoughtful.
I cried while listening to it huhu what a romantic yet tragic song🤧 This song is goddam good and I really love it. It gives the vibes of 2nd gen of kpop with the twist of neo bcs perhaps SM still wants to give the signature of NCT 127 which is its uniqueness. It's so nostalgic yet fresh in my opinion.... Basically I love everything about this song, but I think Taeil deserves to get more screen time bcs his vocal is hella angelic😭💚 Thank you for the reaction🙌
This is NCT127 tapping into their R&B roots in a love song. The producer of Favorite (Vampire) Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins is insanely famous; Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Mary J Blige, Whitney Houston, Lady Gaga famous.
I´ve been thinking about which kind of old song/boyband this song reminds me of, and I think the closest is Infinite, this song reminds me of Infinite songs, kinda
They actually have a song called 'Limitless' (my favorite nct 127 title track) and the chorus is similar to favorite as well ! Also for 'Touch' they went all-pop and super bright
Also yeah this sounds like a mashup between an old exo title track and a suju ballad with an nct spin. The vocal modulation on sticker reeeeaally reminded me of old suju stuff like bonamana lol
Long-time fans of K-pop say that the song feels like "Shinhwa," a senior group of SM. I think it's probably that kind of feeling? I think this side of NCT127 is also attractive. I'm so excited and looking forward to this promotion.
This song made me so emotional, it made me remember the old times. It really feels like we came back to old times😭 I thought I was the only one who noticed, thank God not!😭
STREAM THE MV YALL! Everyone’s saying this song a masterpiece but no one’s streaming! pleaseeee stream, it’s important to get the boys music show wins!
...the boys experiencing two universes through dreams...also their promo mvs explains also. I just watched a reaction by three Korean music producers who clearly explained the mv from the music, dance performance and SM creative method.. very educational coming from them who are in the thick of this genre...
And this is exactly why I’m literally begging people to listen to nct b-sides causeee r&b is literally their signature sound aside from their title tracks
You should probably listen to NCT 127 - Touch. You’ll be surprised by the genre change. 😂
Up 😆😆
Up 😊
Up :>
Lets do this!!!!
up
THAT CHORUS IS UNBELIEVABLE
Also very happy to see you back Aaron ♥I hope you get better and better
Yaaaasssshhhhh 💚💚💚💚

Kenzie is the songwriter; Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins is the producer
@@ClassicallyMish oh yeah, sorry my bad
@@spiralrival literally masterpieces. I heard that NCT is one of the very few kpop artists that he worked with. No wonder it's a bop
more like TVXQ and EXO to me
@@moshimoshi2983 yup yup
I want to cry just thinking about this song. I want it in my ears all day. Why is it so goddamn good and sad and beautiful.
i can relate this. Feeling want to cry, why this song so gooddd. Really hope this song will go on higher.
I almost cried listening
Yeah it has a melancholy quality to it which they do using their voice which i appreciate from NCT.
Yeah even I cried listening to it. This song is such a masterpiece.
With the voice of nct127 the emotion of that chorus was brought to life. It hurts and beautiful at the same time 😭💖
Yes Haechan's voice is so pretty! I could hear him for hours and won't bored. His voice is that amazing.
THIS SONG MADE ME FEEL SO MUCH THINGS, ALL GOOD OF COURSE. THE LYRICS AND THE VOCAL LAYERING ARE CHEF'S KISS
“Sentimental” is such a great way of describing this.
Favorite has the most beautiful chorus ever!!!
Yasssssss
Yeeeaaahhh
for real
The thing is that SM likes to trying out new kinds of music and that's including sometimes go back because it's refreshing songs since in these days kpop starting to sound somehow the same, SM doing something really smart for changing the kind of songs that they release i think in this point they making their idols shine from different ways and i guess that this is attractive for a lot of people that listening to kpop or makes them know how kpop was before what it is today.

This
This sound is actually nct 127 going back to one of their older title tracks "Limitless" (Favorite was written by the same producer that made that song), with great raps, melodic choruses and IMPECCABLE harmonies. Oh they never fail to amaze me
ur right, usually their titles tracks are not love songs like this, but they have a lot of bsides with this concept
This song SCREAMS 2nd Gen (with that NCTtwist) and I'm loving it.
the dance break it's only for stages live! it's not in the official audio u right :) thank u for ur reaction to nct,always nice to hear ur opinions on them !
haechan's "your love, your love" part really gave me chills. it's so beautiful!
8:59 ive been waiting for a reactor to react the same as aaron with haechans "your love" its the best part of the song!!
Same bestie 🙂🤜
people don't lie when they say that haechan's voice is literally like sugar and honey in the ear, so sweet it can take you to another world.
Whenever Jaehyun appears
Aaron: (hands here and there) you know this guy. 😅
Me: yeah the same birthday as yours
ifkyk ^-^
Yes of course. No one don't know abt that, Aaron. 😂😂
Haechan's honey voice never disappoint 💛💛
I love how the whistle sound is prominent within the whole song, it's really addictive. THIS SONG REALLY HAS 2ND GEN VIBE FEELS IN IT ESPECIALLY THE CHORUS AND BRIDGE
To be honest, this is my first time seeing NCT 127 realllly liking their own song that much. They think it’s easy to hear and they are really excited to promote it. And, for me it’s amazing, I love it so much😍 Thank you for the reaction
Well, when they were asked which is their favorite release and Taeil answered "Dreams come true", you kinda have a hint that the neos and the nctzen don't have the same taste in music ! 😄
I could listen to this song forever, its so freaking good! Actually the whole album is a masterpiece!
Happy to have you back Aaron!! take care of yourself, I hope you get better 100% ;)
yass this song, sounds like a 2nd gen boy group. my boys be bringing us back to that era and we love it!
i love this side of nct if u haven’t i recommend limitless (their best title track imo why does no one ever recommend it 😭) it’s kinda similar to favorite in that it’s a little different from their usual sound but the way i fell in love w favorite chorus reminded me of when i fell in love w limitless chorus
OMG YES PLEASE.. i hope he will react to limitless🥺
Yes!!!!! Limitless is super good🤩
FACTS ITS THEIR BEST TITLE TRACK BESIDES THIS ONE IMO
My favorite
IKR ma dudeeeee soooooo trueeeee like these days peps don't even know limitless or chain TT
Overall, this song is so BEAUTIFUL and SAD. The lyrics "I want to hurt even more desperately"...the way they sang it with emotions...and the way the song builds up in DESPERATION.
This is so SM. That chorus and sudden dancebreak. Classic 🙌🏻
Jungwoo is indeed shining lately from sticker to this

NCT: does something normal
EVERYONE: *well this is weird!*
U gotta listen to all of their beside tracks, this is also their genre. Its just they're makin it romantic dramatic tittle track this time. This is still the experimental sound of nct127 💚💚💚
so glad to see the update from you Aaron welcomeback and thank you. speedy recovery 💕
omg glad that you're better Aaron! welcome back and take care 💚 thank you for reacting to Favorite with us! this song is really something else 🤧
Yes!!! My first reaction to the chorus was thinking that it sounds like Super Junior around 2011. "It's you" for example. It gives me that vibe
Omg Aaron doesn't even know how versatile NCT 127 are xD they have very different genres, especially on the b-sides. But for title tracks they had 'Touch' which is super soft
so happy to see you healthy and back on your feet!:). PS. Haechan's a vocal beast! SM needs to stop keeping him locked up
It's because lately most chorus parts doesn't even have melody - only beats and catchy phrases and repeat it like four times and bang - chorus done.
This is refreshing for us to hear back the real chorus of a song ahah. Love it.
I'M GLAD YOU'RE BACK AARON OMG
it's always so obvious who's your bias in any video haha, so adorable also I hope you're feeling better ☺
The song is written by the same composer who wrote NCT 127's Limitless. If you listen to limitless, I think you can get similar feeling to favourite (the 90s, early 2000s sound).
Thank youuuu for this reaction, aaron. And i’m glad you are back. Stay healthy and remember to always take care of yourself
not surprised because NCT HAS everything. they can do anything and it turns out very interesting and also standout.
I'm okay with all opinions as long as they're honest, polite, and thoughtful.
omg yes... literally nobody talks about the " your love " part at the end sang by haechan... that was so good...
Eyyyy! My favorite reactor, Welcome back! I hope you're doing okay.
NTC 127 has very sweet romantic songs, usually their b sides. Check out: Angel, Love Song, Fool, Boom and Sun and Moon.
I cried while listening to it huhu what a romantic yet tragic song🤧 This song is goddam good and I really love it. It gives the vibes of 2nd gen of kpop with the twist of neo bcs perhaps SM still wants to give the signature of NCT 127 which is its uniqueness. It's so nostalgic yet fresh in my opinion.... Basically I love everything about this song, but I think Taeil deserves to get more screen time bcs his vocal is hella angelic😭💚
Thank you for the reaction🙌
when i hear Doyoung's voice im about to cry T.T . All my boys are so talented
The roses set , i think that shows like vampire parade .. bcz the snare sound (parade) . And red roses close to vampire image too ...
This is NCT127 tapping into their R&B roots in a love song.
The producer of Favorite (Vampire) Rodney “Darkchild” Jerkins is insanely famous; Michael Jackson, Beyoncé, Mary J Blige, Whitney Houston, Lady Gaga famous.
I have the impression that you are still a little sick, but I'm glad that you came back, Aaron. 😉 Thanks for the reaction. 😌
Hey, good to see you again. Glad to know you’re better. ;)
I cried when I first listen to this song.
Beautiful poetic hurt deep dark lyrics with sad storyline 😭
Kenzi eomma jjang
TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF, AARON! Thanks for reacting
"I'M GLAD TO BE BACK"
WE'RE ALSO GLAD YOU'RE ✨BACK ✨
Stay healthy, Aaron.
So happy to see you back.😊
You're one of my favourite mv reactor ofc💚
The chorus is amazing, and thanks God, sound for dance break is not available in all platform music streaming
I´ve been thinking about which kind of old song/boyband this song reminds me of, and I think the closest is Infinite, this song reminds me of Infinite songs, kinda
this is so like old kpop school
YES HAECHAN VOICE IS SO PRETTY
They actually have a song called 'Limitless' (my favorite nct 127 title track) and the chorus is similar to favorite as well ! Also for 'Touch' they went all-pop and super bright
Also yeah this sounds like a mashup between an old exo title track and a suju ballad with an nct spin. The vocal modulation on sticker reeeeaally reminded me of old suju stuff like bonamana lol
Yesssss sticker was very Suju! I kept picturing Mamacita for some reason haha
I really love this song so addict
Long-time fans of K-pop say that the song feels like "Shinhwa," a senior group of SM. I think it's probably that kind of feeling? I think this side of NCT127 is also attractive. I'm so excited and looking forward to this promotion.
This song made me so emotional, it made me remember the old times. It really feels like we came back to old times😭 I thought I was the only one who noticed, thank God not!😭
I'm in luv with chorus and every part of this song.
lol @9:00 was totally me when i heard haechan's 'your love, you love' at the end of the song for the first time
Finally found someone mentions about the HARMONY. IT IS GOOD

Im glad you are back even if we didnt notice... Hope you get 100% well soon
Glad your are back!
And this is exactly why I’m literally begging people to listen to nct b-sides causeee r&b is literally their signature sound aside from their title tracks
Yeah their b sides are the best among all other boy groups today.
Yes their b-sides do sound like this, they have quite a few songs that are more melodic and sentimental
I have been waiting for your reaction! I hope you're feeling better now and not pushing yourself too much.
I hope you’re feeling better now!
SM bring back TVXQ soul through NCT and I love it, because is SM FAMILY , Although is NCT style to keep trying new thing or spark his NEO SIDE 💚
