When I saw the mv I was like " Damn but we know that Starship get into some freaking money these days". The sets and production are on a whole other level this time for real
Alligator felt different from all of Monsta X’s previous music video. It is probably my favorite Monsta X music video. Also idk if you’ll be doing a listening party for the album but when you hear Stealer it will blow your mind. It’s my new favorite Monsta X song.
Stealer was made during Shoot out. Apparently this song almost being main track on Are You There album. So, it's not really surprised that this song was so dope. 😊
If just looking at the MVs, it’s different and more intense but they have a lot of similar imagery. Minhyuk with flowers since All In, Hyungwon with thrones lookin like royalty, Wonho with looking like he’s in eternal suffering in a room.
Yea he did a live listening party 2 days ago, it was fantastic his mind got blown multiple times lol. I hope it gets uploaded soon, I wanna watch it again :(
I love it when every single time MX release a comeback, all kpop enthusiasts will underestimate and expect something bad, and BOOM THEY BREAK THE SHIT OUT OF THEIR JAWS because they killed. every. freaking. comebacks.
Yeah, I agree with this being "stronger" than Shootout. They really built the entire MV in the manner of an Alligator. They stalk their prey, they're quiet killers, the violence happens once they have you. Ever seen an Alligator under the surface of the water? It's calm and serene, it's what happens once they latch on and pull you under with them. I love the secondary part of the chorus where it says "I'm pulled into your swamp, you're pulled back into my swamp, just like I wanted" Just like you wanted eh? It's a power struggle thing but at the same time, they're sorta saying they win, and I love that.
Yes - The reality of an alligator drowning its prey, then stashing it to rot for ease of eating later, is creepier than the trope of furiously snapping jaws. Agree the mv is true to that. Would have been nice if they had a real alligator. That looked like maybe a caiman.
As PD said before that " No one makes music like MONSTA X" , and I'll say " No one makes MV Reaction better than you PD"😍❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ proud to be monbebe!!! And PD Lovers of course 😄😄
For those wanting to know. The seven deadly sins of Monsta X: Pride - Hyungwon Envy - I.M. Wrath - Shownu Greed - Jooheon Agony - Minhyuk Loneliness - Kihyun Sloth - Wonho Love this concept honestly.
8:01 MX: We're not your sweet little boys, we're men. Me: Awww look at these seven babies, let me tuck you in your blanket and read you some bedtime stories uwu
never clicked so fast the producer is the same of dramarama, the rithm is really similar, that's probably why I love it SO much can't wait for the listening party, you will find the album...interesting.
Been waiting for this one PD! Yes it's an excellent video. Not my favorite song or album from them, but I have high standards when it comes to MX because they're just so damn good. Looking forward to a US tour!
Oh im so glad I am not the only one who felt this way! I honestly liked Rodeo or Stealer a bit better as a title track then this one. Its grown on me more as I have listened to it.
I was really nervous to post this since so many are freaking out over this comeback. I love MX, I support them, but Are You There had an incredible variety that We Are Here is lacking. I’m all for an album full of bangers, but a banger doesn’t necessarily have to be all hard-hitting EDM tracks. Underwater and Myself were my fave tracks from Are you there (and I’m honestly more into hard-hitting EDM tracks) since they were surprising and different and unique and beautiful. So yeah, the new tracks on the full album don’t feel very different from one another. If they do a US tour I AM TOTALLY GOING. I would have been happy to wait longer for a comeback in order to get a wider variety of more interesting tracks. You can’t rush quality!
@@SpookyDarling Omg I felt EXACTLY the same way about Underwater and MySelf, these 2 and Shoot Out were my favorite... So much quality... Same for the album, it's noisy and there's a lack of variety, almost all seem party songs, contradicting the concept of the teasers and intro... I feel it was rushed, too, i think we don't like it cause the members didn't have much say in this album, there's only No Reason by Wonho and that's it. (the rap parts weren't cool either). I feel so guilty though tbh...
Yes shady editor! (Thea?) I think Shoot Out is more intense, but Alligator is sharper. I wasn't too keen on Alligator at first, but it's growing on me.
7:00 I KNOW RIGHT?!! *THAT* is the freaking killing part right there. OMG I'm totally obsessed with that fire and water set and also the laser set. They had the fire in their live stages too oml(all to further kill me LOL). This comeback was LITERALLY fire.
I knew PD would love that water scene. Monsta X snapped and claimed 2019 as their year! I think one of my favorite things about the MV visually is how in the beginning they’re dancing on a set that looks like a swamp but they’re still on land. However, at the end of the video they’re dancing in water and it’s during that killing part that the viewer has officially been pulled into Monsta X’s swamp.
PDnim reaction in that fraction of TIME was my ENTIRE reaction through the MV x'D seriously gorgeous AF MV, amazing comeback, MONSTAX never disappoints *PROUD MONBEBE RIGHT HERE*
You said the same i thought about this MV. It's a visual masterpiece. I wasn't even that much into the song but I was so absorved by the video production, all the sets, the perfect lighting, the perfect angles shot, the progression and even the transitions are so amazing
"omg what..." is actually my reaction when i first listened to their music in 2019 and thand understood how many good songs i've missed since their debut
I usually don't listen to these types of reviews; however, I enjoyed your commentary and how you explained each segment. Dramarama video was what made me a new fan of Monsta X. Their music is the best to dance to. I'm a much older fan and their music reminds me of what I used to jam and dance to at the clubs and house parties. Now I'll be dancing as exercise and cleaning the house😊😀😊😍
@@sheilavaidy i feel like that too, but at the same time i think that PD might've just asked Byron to make it less meme-y cause PD's style is kinda serious
I just love this comeback. There is so many throwbacks to past music videos and concepts I am pretty sure I still haven't caught all of them and at the same time it works as a standalone thing. The outfits, the sets, that background hype growing in the song and cultimating in last 30 seconds with you not even noticing so it has even bigger impact with that marvelous editing. I am not saying it is the best most catchy song they ever produced, but it is definitely their best effort since 2015. PROUD MOMMA HERE!
I've watched so many reactions to this and everyone is gob smacked at the entire second half of the video and as a monbebe that makes me so happy! I'm so excited that Monsta X is shocking and impressing people more and more - this comeback cycle is going to be so lit!
Thank you for reacting to Monsta X again! I was as shook as you hahaha. Wonho (who's my ulti. bias) is the cause of my death, this man....I- I couldn't breathe. And the whole group with this MV just send me. This is so amazing uuuuffff
The main vocalist of monsta x is really good at singing the chorus like omgggggg he gave me soooo many goose bumps at the end of the song !!!! And LOL your editor I love that person
From all reactions I've seen not only reacting to this video your reaction is the BEST 👍👍 I like the way you explain and elaborate all details from this video 👏👏
This is basically how I reacted the first time i watched the video too, and i had to instantly re-watch it several more times. Every time you watch this video you notice something new! It's a beautiful, sexy masterpiece. ^.^
IM was dressed like Beetlejuice. The set is a swamp and they are 7 alligators. The sexiest alligator and I love Monsta X. This was a really good reaction video, glad I decided to hit the button to check you out. I was amazed to when they did that jump leg cross in the air.
i think it's so easy to be fooled by this song when you compare it to Shoot Out, because Alligator opens with vocals and builds to an intense chorus, whereas Shoot Out opens with Jooheon and Changkyun busting down the door with their rap and then, like, mellows? i guess? into a slightly softer but no less intense chorus. both really excellent title tracks and, in my opinion, really complimentary to each other.
I KNEW PD WAS GOING TO REACT LIKE THAT DURING THE WATER DANCE SCENE HAHAHAHA
Let's be real, we all reacted like that.
Haha...yeah... I was waiting for it 🤤❤️❤️
honestly who didn't react like that during that scene? :D
And who doesn't react like that? 🤣🤣
MY FAVORITE SCENE ❤️
2:01 Did pd-nim just say that Alligator is stronger than Alligator? Wow the power of Alligator!
VIP.ARMY.FIGHTING lmao
Lol xD
Ian Michael S I know 😆
😹 I caught that.
VIP.ARMY.FIGHTING 😂😂😂😂😂 i LOLed so hard on your comment..
Whoever the editor is, I love you and I want to be your friend
@Sheila Vaidyanathan Aww thank you so much for the love and support
5:02 “whos over there on the right dressed like beetlejuice” ma boi changkyun is a literal fashion icon 🤧🤧
ON MY MAMA! I.M and Wonho need to come out with a line and blow up the entire fashion industry!
he said BEETLEJUICE I WHEEZED
MONSTA X CAN STEP ON ME sammmmeee😂😂😭
@@clarafunk5584 LMAOO MY LUNGS POPPED LIKE I DIDNt EVEN SEE THAT COMING N I CHOKED
I heard that too but doesnt expecting it was I.M. lol
When I saw the mv I was like " Damn but we know that Starship get into some freaking money these days". The sets and production are on a whole other level this time for real
Yes they even can feed $27.000 a month to fullfill Monsta X stomach 😄
Ikr. Why are they so underrated tho.😑😔
@@arteris999 I came to the conclusion that, S.Korea likes more the cute boys image rather than the manly one, so, Monsta X falls short somehow. :/
PD : I love those black outfits on them...
Me : Wait till you see the white ones ....❤️

Yea he did a live listening party 2 days ago, it was fantastic his mind got blown multiple times lol. I hope it gets uploaded soon, I wanna watch it again :(
+Gami Mon I missed the stream :( I was watching No Mercy and crying over Monsta X. I think watching his stream would have a better emotional choice.
I mean... The visuals of alligator were no joke
I love how they referenced all of their earlier comebacks in the mv.
Me too!! They never forget were they came from!!

truly no one is like monsta x, i love their vibe so much and appreciate them for doing their own thing regardless of whats trendy in the industry.
The music video was INSANE like quality went out the roof
Why is no one requesting pd to react to monsta x and steve aoki’s collaboration? Btw, pd please react to the songs in the album. 🙏
Omggg it was soo good
"Hello, I'm an alli-alligator." I can not take Jooheon serious at that part.
Wonho's moment during that water scene is literally my favorite part..
Today is a good day for orbitbebes
Omgg yesd
Orbitbebe! I love how that sounds.
Amazing. They are the best KPOP group in the industry
forget the deadly sins concept, changkyun is beetlejuice confirmed.
i was waiting for this reaction 2 days and here it is 🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊❗❗❗❗❗
still one of the best mx comebacks.
pd's reaction shows that.

I seriously SERIOUSLY LOVE IT when he reacts to Monsta X it's like I have a hype party with him OMG I FXCKING LOVE IT 😂😂❤❤❤
Same PD in that water part. Same.
For some reason I couldn’t stop looking at the pineapple looking thing that’s just hanging from the mic
they wanted to give off swampy and sticky feel. the fire and water with the black leather pants on the last scene makes me feel exactly that. 🐊
damn MX sent me with this one *but they never have bad songs so y e e t*
*cough* still waiting for Taemin’s want album review *cough*
the only reaction that matters
1:51 and 2:00 I NEED TO SEE MORE OF THAT SCENE, THE PALE BLUE LIGHTING AND THE BLACK PVC LIKE OUTFITS IS SO SICK TOGETHER
the dancing and kihyun's adlibs at the last verse makes my day a better day
