The way the lines in the chorus "Riding on your rhythm, through the solar system" were delivered over an ABBA-influenced Euro disco beat, I literally had goosebumps forming on my arms. A decade into their careers, Red Velvet is showing NO signs of slowing down. And the b-sides on the EP are such a 180 from the "Chill Kill" album. The Queens of the seasons just keep getting better and better with time.
YES ABBA!!!! That is the EXACT sound I was struggling to describe when I said disco/synth/glitter lmao thank you! I can't wait to check out the EP this song is so so good!
When I was a little kid growing up, I had an older sister who listened to ABBA incessantly. It did not surprise me at all when I heard that Swedish songwriting team "Moonshine" collaborated with Kenzie for this track. This is SO late 70's disco sounding I almost can't stand it. It makes me want to borrow her albums from her.
REVELUVS: Probably TMI but if I can't use my channel like a journal, what CAN I use it for? I had a not great several days (mental health) and I honestly thought I was done posting/reacting for a couple of days. Knowing that this dropped today is actually the only reason I got out of bed today so I really want to express my gratitude for Red Velvet and all of you. ⛓❤⛓
You are one of the best IMO. I been following kpop reactors for years and You are right up there. Love your energy, passion for really good music, You're raw honesty. Tell it like it is. I really love your thought captions...adds a bit of flavor...Keep it up...Other than being a Pats fan...Love you bro
Glad to hear that your first Red Velvet comeback gave you strength today. Stay strong, brother, you have a great YT channel. And keep in mind that Irene's solo debut is just around the corner...
Awww I really enjoyed your reaction, thank you for taking your time to share our love of these beautiful girls. I was thinking that I will glad to date with someone like you because how your enjoy and explain music. Thank again, sending bear hugs!!!
"Sounds like glitter" perfect. yeah, just like that. RV is just so perfect to me. These ladies are moving up my Ult GG list...I think they are #2 for me. They are vocally un-matched.
@@ChainReactionsChannelIve almost made it through their entire Disc. and my word, They are on another level. I think GIdle's got them beat, for me but RVs close
Love your reaction!! I like how you noticed that sulgi was chasing the “sacrifice” most reactor never noticed or didn’t speak about it, I think it’s important part of the Red velvet identity. So thanks.
@@reemi7522 thank you for saying this! I do try to catch as much detail as possible but it's tough on just 1 or 2 viewings. I'm glad you enjoyed, Red Velvet is a group I definitely love covering!! ⛓️❤️⛓️
Our Midsommer Queens of layering and sheer vocal brilliance are back. (and, yes, they look & sound as amazing as always). Your reactions are always a treat - so of course I would love to see an album reaction (I may have watched your Chill Kill album reaction a few times...)
I'll try getting an album reaction done ASAP, I've heard good things about the EP. Red Velvet hasn't let me down yet! Thank you for watching with me! ⛓️❤️⛓️
The one-two punch of Wendy & Seulgi is ever present in this track. My bias is Seulgi and she really seemed to shine in this song. I’m glad to see that these ladies are staying together. I never get tired of RV.
Weulgi is incredible. I love them so so much. This whole group is amazing and I adore them. Seulgithena definitely strikes me every time, without fail. Love Red Velvet!! ⛓️❤️💯
@@mahalleinir773 yes yes yes ABBA is perfect - I couldn't articulate what I meant by disco lmao but that is the exact sound they captured! Amazing. Amazing!
CAUTION ever watching that movie, both it & Green Inferno, I will NEVER see again... the imagery is beyond wicked OMG, just the most disturbing movie (Yet, awesomely made horror flick) that you would be wise to only see once... that's why this MV was tough to watch the first few times--not kidding lol.~
I don't have much to say that hasn't been discussed in the comments already, but I absolutely love how haunting, yet beautiful this whole thing is. I really love the entire album. It's all vibes all the way through. Cosmic isn't my favorite song on it, but it's definitely the perfect opener.
@@ChainReactionsChannel I don't really like to rank things, but since you asked: Night Drive Sunflower Cosmic Bubble Last Drop Love Arcade This is based on how I vibed with each individual song. Sunflower, Cosmic, and Bubble are all tied for second place. I liked Last Drop more than Love Arcade. Love Arcade doesn't do anything wrong, and none of these songs are bad; It's still a no-skip album for me. I have more to say about it, but I'll leave that for a full reaction.
It took me around 55yrs to find the perfect sounding group to me. The singing, beat and vibe of the music by hit me right in the sweet spot. I’ve been in heavenly bliss this past year discovering and listening to their discography. They have had two comebacks since I’ve been following them. I thought Chill Kill was really good but had a different vibe. I’m REALLY enjoying COSMIC❤❤ (The way they harmonize makes me weep!) Love your vids and comments!
Chill Kill changed my life and Cosmic improved my life! These ladies are incredible. Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts - that's what it's all about! ⛓️❤️⛓️
This feels so incredibly Red Velvet to me, it had me very teary. i cant believe its been (well, almost) 10 years of them!!! also weirdly its my best friends birthday today and they're having a celestial themed party, and RV drop an album called Cosmic. thats fate 🙂↕️
Red Velvet can take me in their cult at any time. I was wondering why I didn't get a response for my last comments. That explains why. Take your time & get well soon so we can get more great reactions & interactions ❤ #ReactoroftheYear
Sorry I was really unproductive and unresponsive - I'll see if I can try to catch up on some responses! I really appreciate your patience and your support ⛓️❤️⛓️
MV is inspired by Midsommar (the movie). The film is inspired by a Swedish tradition of celebrating the summer solstice. The summer solstice is the most lovely and familiar tradition of Sweden, its original country, everyone is in a good mood. Fairycore, mysterious forest vibrations, etc. It is also the largest holiday in Sweden, only a few countries celebrate this beyond Swedish, and is celebrated in very different ways depending on the country. But the film was specifically inspired by Midsommar in Sweden, which is what they make reference in MV. Traditions between countries have some difference and similarities. Like: Belarus, Poland and Finland, which is the greatest similarities in the original traditions of Sweden. Even having a company that is not giving due value to these divas, and even with low budget they have turned powder into gold, and still proved once again, with a million views in 3 hours, which must be much more while posting this), to confirm that they are the best group of live idols. Red velvet you will always be unique !! ❤🌺🌹🌼🌸🌻🪴🌹🌺👏👏👏
Dude you have to watch MIDSOMMAR it is literally so well done. It actually unnerved me watching this video because I couldn't stop thinking about certain specifically traumatic parts of the movie that are literally burned into my eyes. But that being said, the song is such a bop! The video is still a little freaky though like the runaway person falls through the stained glass ceiling and turns into a glowing orb? LOL rip 😅
Dying at "traumatic parts of the movie that are literally burned into my eyes. But that being said, the song is such a bop!" 😭 You're not wrong!! ⛓️❤️⛓️
I think you're right about first comebacks! This song is good but it felt special... I just love Red Velvet lol. Thank you for watching with me! ⛓️❤️⛓️
he never misses!! never!! edit: also, just can't say goodnight / never say goodnight has the double meaning of the midnight sun concept that they kept emphasizing in the teasers etc- something, by the way, that only happens really far up north (like north sweden lmao) second edit: yes i would love to see an album reaction if possible!
Absolutely loved this MV. I just really enjoyed the Midsommar theme but I loved the song itself too. The various verses and choruses carrying into each other, even though they're different, follow a happy yet foreboding storyline all the way through the end. The message of togetherness, difference, and love were all palpable
YOU ARE AWESOME !!!! I love *Red Velvet.* Their songs/tracks are phenomenal. I love their singing, dancing and rapping. Their vocals are insane. Their concept is interesting. Their MVs are mysterious.
Oh and btw kudos for really noticing a shit ton of details! Positive reactions to one of your favorite groups are always great, but they just taste sweeter when there's observation and interest behind. 👍🏻👍🏻 Oh and you should check "28 Reasons" by Seulgi, if you haven't
I felt it too. I don't know how to explain chord progression and vocal style but this hit me in the gut. I was late to this, but goddamn. This is beautiful in every way. I'm ascending.
This one affected me too, I definitely get it! Hard to explain with groups like RV but they really do have this magic. There's so much feeling, so much beauty. Absolutely special. ⛓️❤️⛓️
Still and always the best! This song was so good. Fell in love with the girls all over again....again. They never miss. Their mediocre songs are better than most other group songs.
So I love your Twice reacts & now I have to add Red Velvet to the mix (& oh, so happily)! Searched to see if you've reacted to (besides MiSaMo) the best subunit in K pop, Suelgi & Irene, a.k.a. SuelRene's, "Naughty", & didn't see it. It's a DEFCON 1 level needed reaction ha, simply awesome song AND MV that features--cue Madonna vibes--tutting... while doing choreo, IN HEELS, riding a nasty beat that will never leave you brain. DO NOT watch the lyrics vid, however; no one needs to think about female on female flirtation that it describes 😂 Wouldn't be a bad idea to Chain (😉) it together with SeulRene's, "Monster" as well; otherwise, you'll get 100 Reveluv comments about Monster if you don't. Gr8 react, as always, amigo!~
Hey! Just so happens I dropped TWICE yesterday too lol. Stay tuned for more Red Velvet (including Irene + Seulgi perhaps 👀). Thanks for watching and I appreciate your support!
LOL just commented on that, too, he's NOT ready for Naughty or Monster! Would be a great catch up vid reacting to both, just hope he has a fan + a ton of ice water ready hahahahaha.~

the disco vibe reminds me of after like by ive😔
That’s funny! I was thinking of ABBA also😮❤
Beautiful, yet mildly unsettling.
Never change, RV.
Can't remember the last time I saw a "Midsommar" themed Kpop video.
It takes a special ... Something... To blend dark themes with pretty visuals and incredible vocals. They are such a great group. ⛓️❤️⛓️
When I was a little kid growing up, I had an older sister who listened to ABBA incessantly.

@@ChainReactionsChannel
I don't really like to rank things, but since you asked:
Night Drive
Sunflower
Cosmic
Bubble
Last Drop
Love Arcade
This is based on how I vibed with each individual song. Sunflower, Cosmic, and Bubble are all tied for second place. I liked Last Drop more than Love Arcade. Love Arcade doesn't do anything wrong, and none of these songs are bad; It's still a no-skip album for me.

“she’s just existing beautifully”
Did I lie though 😩😍
Somebody mixed red velvet in my oh My girl.. add a disco funk to cosmic fairy
Love it

More of a slasher fan but yes I do like horror! It is CRAZY that they used it as a concept 😭 I love them so much lol. ⛓️❤️⛓️
