With this song, Key made people start posting on Tiktok in the challenge not only dancing, but also everything they do, i.e. work, relaxation, walking, running, their pets are just happy and that's what good music should do.
As you probably noticed, "Good & Great" is the beginning of a new music style and concept for Key. This song, and the whole Good & Great album, is so perfectly Key. It never fails, no matter what he does, it always feels like it was meant for him. How I interpret the "Good & Great" lyrics and MV is that Key is experiencing the monotony of life as an average person who spends every day doing the same things. Like most people, to keep motivated he keeps telling himself, "I'm good, I'm great ..." I should be grateful because I have a job and I'm getting paid. But as we see in the MV, life is a never-ending loop like a character in a game or the robotic life of an office worker. We see him smiling, looking happy as he tells himself that "I'm good, I'm great," but everyone he is interacting with just keeps nodding along until their heads fall off, representing how they are not really being fully engaged in the conversation or whatever task they are trying to complete, etc. Day in and day out life is always the same, we just keep going through our tasks, trying to get ahead, with little to no recognition from anyone except ourselves. Which is why we see in the choreography that he pats himself on the head, because the only encouragement he gets is from himself. The cute fuzzy red, pink, purple and blue monsters you see in the MV, which are called BOK-SILLee, have sort of become Key's mascot, ever since they were first introduced as part of his Gasoline album merchandise and concept. (You can actually purchase those monsters as little stuffed toys.) In the end of the MV, you see Key dressed like a BOK-SILLee as he tries to break free from the boring life of the working class.
I like your interp of this song. Very informative bit on the boksillee furry monsters. I know a bit of Korean and your take on it just happens to gel with the "hidden" nuance of the lyrics, which is.........good and great LOL!
Besides Key 💙 having fashion sense, his videos are also multi-cultural. Key, keep patting yourself on the head, you do any amazing job. Shout out to ALL the backup dancers.
I dont know for sure, but when I was rewatching MV the thought that came to me about whats happening in there with glitches, messes and unsettlement is how SM as workplace felt for Key this year after LSM stuff(literally head came off). It seemed that a lot of SM idols had issues with company after that. But then if MV imply that not sure they would released it😅 But anyway I love to have a Key comeback❤
Totally had a similar take. Leadership swaps, disorienting craziness in the workplace, but he just pushes through the glitchiness. Seems on par with Key's attitude re: the company drama. Great vid by itself, let alone with the real world parallels.
As a working class, this is really relatable. Thats why i love KEY, because how genius he is & all his work. Especially "The Sim" transition scene, i like it. 🗝️👑 I also like when they gave him a round of applause like, "Congratulations, you managed to wake up to fight again this morning!" 😄😄 Its just such an encouraging song for work. Remember y'all, u r already doing GOOD & GREAT. Hang in there my fellow workers! 💪👏👏👏 #KEY #Kpop #GoodAndGreat #KimKibum
Oh yay I'm so happy you checked this out! It's nice to see Key's cute side in a title track again, even with the uncanny element it's his happiest mv since Forever Yours, I love that Boksillee is his permanent sidekick now too!
seems like he will do a performance video for Coolas. it's the full English song of the album as he always do in every album. and this Good & great lyrics just talking about me as a work person. 🤣 'Man, coffee's the only reason I function' , ' grateful for all this But still sometimes just wanna vanish' these lines got me off guard 😅
It's really funny that I always wait to see your reaction, even if it causes me to be late for appointments lol I just loved the concept of the MV and the entire album and I believe you will love RJ too!! I also think that KEY will release another special video for this cb and he has already announced that he will perform CoolAs at music shows (particularly it's my favorite song!) Thank you very much for the reaction and get ready because in October we have Taemin's cb with a new album and a single from Minho! Unfortunately, Onew remains on hiatus for health reasons and will apparently be absent for a long time ☹️
