The lyric video for Taste says that that last falsetto is Hyunjin, and though he did do the one before, the last falsetto was actually Felix! You can hear it if you listen super closely or watch the live performance. I was proud of him hitting that high note and I just thought you should know lol
If you want to check out more of Felix's singing I highly recommend his solo song 'Deep End'. It really shows off more of his vocal range and skill, not just sticking in his deep register (and its a fully English song which is a nice bonus for international fans :D). On the SKZ replay album all the members have solo songs so if you are wanting to listen to a certain member those songs could be nice to check out!
Typical Stayville problems: "Seugmin's my favorite vocalist... I mean Felix..... Lee Know is my favorite vocalist". "Hyunjin is my favorite rapper... Chan needs to rap more he's my favorite rapper." 😂😂
😂😂
Yup!! Big problem for me definitely!!! 😅😅
Isn't Seungmin the main rapper lol
At that point you’re just… OT8 😂
don't forget to mention the first reaction when you enter the Stayville as a newbie: "so you say, this group is all allraounders. Alright, we'll see..."
“Felix is my top 1- but seungmin’s voice- ok Felix is 2nd- but I.N’s voice too, so felix is 3rd- but Lee know-“
Do u know how funny this is
it’s the stray kid’s experience, lol
@@delaney6506 TRUTH
8 visuals, 8 performers, 8 purely talented individuals 💚🌻
+ *hardworking vampirewolves
Lee Know has a solo song called "Limbo" which would be great to see more of his vocals!
Felix also has a solo song it's called "Deep End" and it really showcases his vocals and his range!
Hyunjin has quite a few solo songs too the one's I've heard so far are "Ice Cream", "Miss you", and "Love Untold" and they are all so good!
Lee Know's vocals in Taste will forever live in my head. I'm happy more people notice just how clean and smooth his voice is 😌
Ur always changing who ur “favorite” is, it’s a BIG mood
stays always do this cuz it's hard to chose a favorite
24:56 Chan says "Legenday like Tiger JK" and now on the 5 star album that's coming out soon they will have a collab song with Tiger JK!
If you wanna hear more raps from the kids, I recommend: Maze Of Memories, The Tortoise and The Hare
If you wanna hear more Felix vocals, I recommend: Deep End
For Lee Know, I recommend: Limbo
If you wanna hear the kids' vocals, I recommend: Silent Cry, There, Secret Secret, Winter Falls
For the rapline (Hyunjin, Felix, Changbin, Han), I recommend: Domino, FREEZE
Yeees, and makes sure you oull up the OT8 lyric video for Maze of Memories ❤
YESS TOTALLY RECOMMEND THE TORTOISE AND THE HARE ITS SUCH A VIBE
YESSS DOMINO TOO
Hell yes!!!!
hahaha u don't need to have a favourite in all the categories lol😂😂 loved the reaction
The Rap line really is special and Muddy Water is a perfect showcase. Starting with Felix, (demon slayer line is my favorite) who continues to grow each year as his confidence grows. He used to be very insecure about his singing but that is starting to change. You'll see in their Survival show how he spoke only a little basic Korean when he became a trainee and that was a struggle and weakness.
I love Hyunjin's rap style. It has a groove to it that makes it feel so smooth. He always has a layed back flow even when he's rapping a fast verse.
Good way to explain Changbin and Han styles. Changbin writes like he raps; full emotion and considerate insite.
I think Han's instinct and talent is why he is so great at freestyle. People talk about him being and Ace because he's so good at singing, rapping and dancing (so charismatic when performing), well you will learn Han is also a gifted song writer. He tackles a variety of subjects and it's been said that we Stay who don't speak Korean don't understand the true genius of his creativity when it comes to wordplay.
Felix really goes off and ate up Muddy water..just how Seungmin said that Felix really ate the rapping in that song..the aussie accent is just chef's kiss❤❤❤
Han is known as a “ACE” and “ALL ROUNDER” meaning he’s so adaptable and can literally do and type of singing that’s needed. And it comes pretty naturally, his talent level, your right, it next level. No one can really match Han in that level and the other members regularly say so.
Felix voice is such a focal point in their discography, it played a major role in getting people attention and bringing numbers. I personally am a huge fans of his asmr vids
Btw the very last falsetto in TASTE is actually Felix not Hyunjin, these lyric guides get a lot of stuff wrong sometimes💀
dude i think with stray kids you just have to enjoy, in this group the members surprise you in every song, so it's hard to choose a favourite. personally i don't have favourites because one day i like one, another day i like another and then i like them all. my bias is Felix but because he's like my baby hahaha but i really like the talent and beauty of all of them.
Taste is a next level song for vocal ability! This song shows each one’s voice amazingly. This song really showed us all how stunningly they can sing. Lee knows notes though are frigging heavenly!
That last highnote was actually Felix!! He has an insane falsetto for someone with such a deep voice
i think changbin rap are full of crazy techniques..while han was crazy with unexpected flow with his verse..
Great reaction as always! I prefer Chan singing over rapping but that is just my personal preference even though he's a great rapper. Just giving you a heads up Chan loves to watch reaction videos in his spare time so don't be surprised if he watches your videos! Love how you're already getting used to voices to names. Some seasoned Stay's have to get clarification from Chan on who sang part of a verse between Han and Hyunjin. The colour-coded lyrics were slightly incorrect it was Felix who sang the falsetto at the end of the song, not Hyunjin. Recommendations- Victory Song, Easy, Double Knot, Tower of God ( TOP ), Scars
After a while when you get into Stray Kids you just have to give up on having favourites because a new person wrecks you on each song. I absolutely love Lee Know's voice, but one of my favourite things about both Lee Know and Felix's voices is that they worked on them and mastered them throughout being in SKZ. They both started out primarily as dancers but they trained and developed their voices until they mastered them as unique instruments. Felix's voice is something I feel the skill of managing you don't full notice at first, but the more you hear him talk and the range of sounds he can make with his voice the more you appreciate his skill at using it. I feel like Felix gives a special texture to any song he's in. The compositions of Stray Kids songs are so good because they know how to use each voice/tool at their disposal to make an overall track that works so well. Like, in Taste, the contrast of Felix's deep soft tone and Lee Know's high falsetto, and then Hyunjin moves in between both, uses the contrast so well to create atmosphere and that sensual tone of voices at their extremes (that tends to happen during certain situations/emotional states that they might be invoking). They don't just use their instruments well, they use them cleverly, and I love that.
CarKpop would also agree with you that Chan needs to rap more and it's such a treat when he does! You should really react to old 3Racha songs beacuse Channie was so fire in those. But also highly recommend "Maze of Memories" and "Turtle and the Hare" for group raps. Basically ot8 raps in those 2.
I understand you 😄! Stray kids are so talented! They confuse us all. It's hard to choose. In my opinion, it is better to just appreciate their qualities. They have many talents!
Than you for your react 👍!
You struggling to rank them is a mood. I have constant bias changes so don't really stress on it, the amount of times you change who is the best for you makes me laugh cause I am the same. Every song hits different and every song different members shine which is what I love about Stray kids they let each other have their shining moments and support each other on their solo and unit songs. I agree Felix needs more vocal moments cause he is amazing. All of them are amazing at vocals. Now that you see how amazing their Rap Line are here is a list of songs that is more vocally focus and I hope you react to them when you have time. 😁
Secret secret (Live and MV is both great) One of My fave song of SKZ they all sing here.
Never Ending Story (live version is amazing)
Ex (MV)
Mixtape Oh (First Take Version)
Gone Away (MV - Han, Seungmin and I.N)
Waiting for Us (Chan, Lee Know, Seungmin, I.N)
Lost Me (First Take) Japanese song
Deep end (Felix)
Limbo (Lee Know)
Little Star ( Hyunjin song for his dog who died)
Hate to admit ( Bang Chan)
Hug Me. (I.N)
Stars and Raindrops ( Seungmin)
Streetlights( Changbin)
These are just on top of my head. There are others but this list is already too long haha 😅
maze of memories is (i think) the only full rap song they have, its really worth checking out and it has a bit of a different lazy-rap vibe too
I am so enjoying your journey into Staysville! Welcome, Baby Stay! I know, the struggle is so real. It's so hard to pick one very talented young man over the others. I found it impossible and just gave in to the OT8. Life is so much more peaceful by not choosing! Thank you for sharing your journey!
I just love Felix's voice. The way he is singing is fire 🔥🔥🔥
Also the fact that Stray Kids is practically Self-produced group, and they write their own music. It is incredible for this industry.
You should check out more of Hans singing! He’s definitely one of my favorite vocalists :)
the pause before hans heyday verse caught me mid breathing in to scream with him💀💀
SKZ be taking the "all-rounder" term on a personal level like it's their pride ahaha
21:14 that was actually felix, not hyunjin
24:42 and that wasn't han, it was changbin :)
There is the live version of Taste that is shorter than the original but it hits so much different when they dance and sing it at the same time. So wow
I love your reactions, and relate hard to the difficulty of choosing a favorite. I gave up very early on, ot8 almost since I became a STAY. Just a little reminder to STAY that it is better not to engage with haters, no matter how much you would like to refute what they are saying. They keep making the comments because they get reactions out of it, imo, so I think the best way to fight it is to ignore them. Of course report it if there is something that qualifies it to be reported but in cases that can't be reported, just ignore. Just my opinion though.
11:29 - You're so real for this honestly! Go off, fanboy about ya boi Changbin all you want
You should really listen to the “Deep End” - Felix’s solo song which shows what an amazing singer he is.
p.s. while listening, whenever you start thinking that it’s somebody else singing - that’s still Felix. His vocal range just mind-blowing.
And Lee Know’s solo “Limbo” is another great song which will let you appreciate his amazing vocals. Such a great song.
The high notes at the end of Taste were Felix, even though the video said they were Hyunjin. Felix has a big range.
Welcome to the Stayville: Confused confusion everytime one of them opens their frickin mouth on a song.
muddy whuatta ❤️
Hi Trolltek!!! I just wanted to say that i absolutely LOVE the way you talk about each one's abilities and just how you describe them in general. I love watching these types of reactions but i genuinely appreciate your comments so much. I'm not the "stop pausinnnng" kind of watcher but I sometimes get tired of the reactors that stop the videos so much just to say some non pertinent stuff. And this is hy i love your reactions because i get so invested in what you say about the songs and i can watch your full videos without skipping! You have a way with words! And you struggling to rank them in categories IS SUCH A MOOD, it's literally every Stray Kids lover problem HAHAHA. I honeslty gave up a this point, i just decided to enjoy each and everyone's juge talents HAHAH
By the way, I think the word you were looking for, while describing the flexibiliy of Changbin's rapping, is "versatile" :)
Also, the last falsetto at 21:14 is Felix!! (He has such a HUGE range it's insane, you should react to his song "Deep End")
THANK YOU SO MUCH :)
if you thought han's tone change was crazy in heyday, you should give 3racha's "zone" a listen. han's deep voiced rap in there is great, and changbin and chan pops off very well too
Its almost impossible to have a bias in STRAY KIDS.... In every song of theirs someone different will just smack you in the face!
heyday is collaboration song for the dance show "Street man fighter" the dancer assigned to make choreography for the song
loving your analysis and how you share your thoughts and theories
13:33 that end piece is always added in lyrics videos as an outro but they're not part of the songs
“N/S” has an actual street music video, and it is also pretty much entirely rap focused.
i totally get the way your opinion changes every minute. i got into stray kids cuz i heard chan's voice in a clip on instagram and i thought it was the most beautiful voice i have ever heard but right now han's vocals are my favorite, i can't even explain how his voice makes me feel, it's like his voice is angelic but it's not like seungmin's voice, it's like he is the devil in the form of an angel, like there is something taking control of me behind the pureness of his voice.
i recommend watching i'll be your man performance for han's powerful high notes (also seungmin, i.n, lee know,chan's vocals and han, changbin, felix's powerful raps), he has the highest range out of all the members. i also recommend red lights ot8 performance so you get to hear changbin's vocals too.
Lee know’s voice is my favourite for sure, his falsettos are the best,
Like how can he be main dancer with such voice wow
I recommend you also his solo song -Limbo!
You can be OT8 with Channie as ur ult in the group. All of them are insanly good so ik the feeling 🤣
also at 21:14 is Lixie's folsetto
Stary kids „christmas evel” is awesome
The amount of times you changed favorites is me 😅
Muddy Water is currently my fav song 😍🎧
11:52 "He just does things and they just work" describes Han so well honestly
18:46 😂😂😂 how we all feel...i keep it simple...i love them all doing everything they do😂😂😂
When you mentioned Aussie Chan in 3racha, then you have to listen to Maze of Memories 😊
I can see how Chan goes all shy and red watching your reaction videos hahahaha
Félix is wonderful rap and vocalist.
He's multitalent.
❤
I like all three of these so this is a treat hahaha
You perfectly captured why I love felix's (and chan's) rapping so much. As an Aussie who grew up on Hilltop Hoods and Bliss n Eso it feels familiar.
It's the struggle of every single stay. We can't pick a fav for too long. 🤣🤣🤣
Seeing how you love Felix as vocalist, I would love point out that the last falsetto in taste is Felix
And I think you're very into 3racha, so here's some 3rcaha songs:
Just breathe (a collaboration)
Zone
Matryoshka (you probably get to watch it in skz survival show
Runners high
Eunseoki
Scene stealers (one of my fav. It gives off muddy water vibes
Pace
Double knot
lmao I love how he changes his fav singer and rapper in every reaction
14:12 i'd love to see your reaction to taste performed live, i hope you do that in the future
Every time Channie talks about word choices, creation of new compound words, random cool ideas .... he usually follows it by revealing it was Changbin's idea.
I think that is a good example of how Changbin understands rap. He has a good understanding and creative feel for words and is a good ideas man in general. 😊
It's definitely at least part of what makes him such a good rapper. 💙
All 8 can do everything, ofc everyone will perfer different things, but overall all 8 can individually do it all
In an interview to the making of MAXIDENT, Hyunjin talked about loving Taste from the bottom of his heart bc it's DANCERATCHA's song and he has such fondness for the actual chroeo and MV (or live?) because it's a follow-up of Red Lights and meant to contrast it in a way colour-wise, but also add to it/show a different side. He really poured his artistic soul into it (as did the others, but Hyunjin talked about this), so I'd recommend to check out the performance as well some time :3
“Maze of Memories” is a straight up song where all Stray Kids members are in it, but it is all straight up rap.
I love your videos, thank you!
I'd say you're definitely Chan biased with 7 bias wreckers cause honestly, too relatable😅
I've been waiting for this. Thanks ❤️
He low-key chose 3 different fav rappers and 4 different fav vocalists😭😭😭😭😭 I understand the struggle mate
I love that Hyunjin is the biggest fanboy of 3racha. It warms my heart. 😂❤
You don't have to pick a favorite in each category, just pick your bias and flow~ cause possibly those "favorites" change in each song or moment 😂 is the skz effect lol. If you want to hear more of Lee Know's vocals I recommend Limbo or Waiting for Us, also Wow by danceracha
I love just how stay u are in this video lol like this is a typical stay prob we can’t decide on one of them
Han and Changbin raps brings fire into your soul (after killing you & then bring you back to life), but Chan raps to the universe & speaks "legendary" things -back into our existence...we are not worthy. I'm ready for the melee..Tiger JK
Ahh I love your reactions! If you want to be blindsided by Han's amazing vocals, you should watch their cover performance of "I'll Be Your Man". His vocals will surprise you! Hidden ace lol. Keep up the great content!
Now that I ve heard someone say that that bit in 'heyday' is a squeaking bed, I smile when it comes up.
Gone Away is a super duper good song, it's a unit song featuring Seungmin, I.N, and Han. I really recommend it!!
Deep end is good song of felix really good my fav of his
Watching you work through your internal conflict of trying to rank the members is absolutely adorable!
Maze of Memories (OT8 VER) if you want to hear the whole group rapping, and FAM (Korean Version)
9:58 You seem to be suffering from chronic Underestimating Han Syndrome. Yes, Changbin and Han have very different styles and Changbin's approach to writing may be more surgical, but I don't know how you make the leap to assuming Changbin has a better grasp on his craft than Han. Han would not be to the level he is, could not put out the verses he puts out, if he doesn't "understand what makes rap rap". I think you do such a disservice to Jisung by assuming he doesn't share Changbin's understanding of "why things work and why things don't work". I just don't know what the evidence is for that when Han and Changbin are on the same level skill-wise and we see so little of their writing process.
You are like me as a baby stay getting more and more confused on who the hell my bias is the more I learned about the group. Used to think I was OT8 so I spent some time like that until 8 finally settled on LeeKnow. I still love all the members tho, so basically still OT8
there’s a stage where the vocal line raps muddy water, you should definitely check it out, I already knew chan and lee know could rap but seungmin and in omg
oh yeah time for some bangers!
You are the same as me 😂 changing my mind constantly!!! They are all so awesome I can never choose!! Well I can, but then I change my mind again 😅
I really enjoy your reactions to the guys and hearing your thoughts for their music, it’s been great. For me personally it’s just been difficult to stay tuned in when there are pauses nearly every line. Ik these might be times you really want to give your in the moment reaction immediately, it just seems as tho the feel/flow of the song is not being taken in naturally to be enjoyed. It’s become broken moments for me. As a suggestion maybe make ir through half the song then thoughts? Like I said only a suggestion, you’ll obviously do what fits your style of taking in everything. Either way I enjoyed the reaction, glad you liked these three!
A good song to listen to Felix singing is his song “Deep End”
Halfway through ur video just wanted to comment on your description of Changbin rapping. I totally agree Changbin is like a Scientist, he almost uses his voice tone, inflection as an instrument that adds another layer to the track. 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
"Legendary like Tiger jk" it's funny because they have a collab with him in the new album .
okay chan watches reaction videos from time to time and shouts out his favorites so hopefully he'll see yours and hear how much you love his rap and maybe rap more (although personally I love him as vocalist a little more )
I wanna say that I love felix's verses way more when he writes them (exp Taste , muddy water ) I love 3Racha's writing of course but with so many rappers in the group he doesn't get to shine as much as rapper or vocalist . it's a completely different story when it's a unit or a solo song written by him if you listen to deep end you'll understand what I'm saying
I gave up on choosing my favourite rapper or vocalist instead I choose fav verse in a song by a member like han's verse is my fav in Heyday .
You can just say stray kids is your favorite 😂
I don't know if you noticed but on heyday they refer to tiger jk and they did a collaboration for the next new album with him
I feel like Felix isn't primarily a rapper, but these extra cuts seem to be partly about expanding horizons which is a lot of fun. I'm more excited about him getting to show more expressiveness and range in Taste (in the live performances he's obviously singing that last line). But the main thing is everyone in this group is talented as hell and just keep learning and getting better. And I love how some of the lines layer...if you haven't seen one of the live performances you should take a look because the whole performance is fire. Bang Chan did a react vid of sorts.
You need to watch Hyunjin’s solo dance covers of When the party’s over, Play with fire & the Artist of the Month 🔥 if you already like him as a performer, this is going to seal the deal
Yes some rap right songs these songs are so good. Some of my favorites from SKZ, wait who am I kidding, lol, I love all their songs. 😂❤
This was hilarious to see you rank them I was the same way but now I cant pick whos voice I love more but Chan is my ULT bias lol
Hyunjin’s voice is really melodic it sounds nice and relaxing
Unrelated but thought id mention it
Chan loves to watch reaction videos to skz songs and content so there is a chance he has seen you already 😅
dont forget fam, you can have people tie for certain ranks. each person sounds diff in each song too.
Seeing u struggle to choose ur favorite among them is very funny😂😂
I would really recommend deep end by Felix. It really shows off his vocal range and is really just absolutely beautiful
