Picture the grandeur of Claridge's, the art deco masterpiece nestled in the heart of Mayfair, London. A setting where enduring elegance and classic style converge, effortlessly marrying the past with the present, making it the perfect backdrop for a celebration like no other.
The Rake celebrated a remarkable milestone on November 2nd: fifteen years of setting the standard for timeless sophistication, The Rake marked its XV Anniversary with a soirée that resonates with the essence of style, an ode to the art of tailoring.
In attendance were influential guests, masters of the fashion world, and creators who've played pivotal roles in shaping The Rake's journey. Celebrities and tastemakers, with their elegance and flair, paid homage to the brand’s dedication to defining the modern voice of classic elegance.
Claridge's ArtSpace, an oasis of art and luxury at Claridge’s hotel, designed by the renowned British architectural designer John Pawson, was the canvas for one of the evening's masterpieces. An exhibition of contemporary artworks curated by artist Ekow Eshun adorned the space, adding an extra layer of aesthetic delight to the gathering.
"Peace amidst the storm. In Claridge’s spirits could not be dampened but only raised along with classes and good cheer as The Rake celebrated its 15th anniversary — shared Tom Chamberlin, The Rake’s Editor-in-Chief —. Friends, colleagues and collaborators joined us to mark this milestone and also have an opportunity to see contemporaries from the community of bespoke and luxury, socially well-lubricated by amazing cocktails, cigars from Davidoff of London and the return of The Rake’s Hot Dog stand. We are grateful to all those who were able to make it and missed terribly all those who could not. Till next time."
The evening's enchantment wouldn't have been possible without the generous support of The Rake's sponsors. The Botanist, Bruichladdich, Belle de Brillet and Champagne Telmont infused the evening with sophistication and spirit, treating guests to the finest champagne, white Negroni, and a playful riff on classic cocktails. 
The XV Anniversary also marked the release of Issue 90, an issue that encapsulates the best of The Rake’s ambition, with a vision of people and products made to inspire.
So, there it was — a night of glamour, style, and timeless elegance.

The "Disney's Classics" pressings...
Tumblr media
There were VHS "releases" of three Disney animated features that are kind of a clustercuss to talk about...
DUMBO, ALICE IN WONDERLAND, and THE SWORD IN THE STONE were titles in the "Classics" line that Walt Disney Home Video used for the company's animated feature library from 1984 to 1994. These three films were unique in that they didn't return to the vault or go on moratorium. They were always, as "Classics" releases, available to purchase at any given time back in the day...
Now, these three titles had already received Classics releases in the mid-1980s. DUMBO in November 1985, followed by SWORD in March 1986, and then ALICE in May 1986. Pictured below were the final issues of those releases, from fall 1987. (They had seen minor packaging updates over the course of a year or so.)
Tumblr media
Now you may be wondering... Hey, isn't that the same ALICE cover as the one at the top? It is!
You see, when DUMBO, ALICE, and SWORD received their Classics cover updates in September 1989, to promote the home video debut of BAMBI... Well, wait a minute... ALICE didn't. For whatever reason, Walt Disney Home Video continued to use the 1986/87 cover. Without even updating the heading from "Walt Disney's" to "Walt Disney's CLASSIC", to keep it in line with the other two updated covers...
These are weird "releases" because the only thing new about them - well, DUMBO and SWORD - were the cover artworks. Inside were the 1987 tapes and labels... (I do not have a 1987 SWORD release with a 1987-era label, myself, so it's not pictured below. My copy has a 1986-era label with the "Walt Disney Productions" copyright.)
Tumblr media
... and they opened the same way as the '87 tapes, too: Red-orange FBI warnings (or just antipiracy screens if you got them in Canada) and the 1984 flipping text Classics animated intro sequence.
Some time around, I want to say towards the end of 1990... They made updates to the labels for DUMBO and SWORD...
Tumblr media
Those new labels reflect the typography seen on the 1989 cover artworks. "Walt Disney's" is in a basic sans-serif font, this typeface also appears on the 1988 video release of CINDERELLA, and the 1989 video release of BAMBI.
They still open the same way, though...
Then, by mid-1991, we finally saw these releases get white-ink labels... Curiously, instead of having the diamond logo that says "THE CLASSICS"/"Walt Disney Home Video", we have a diamond that says "Disney's CLASSICS"... A diamond that appears nowhere else in the history of the Classics lines:
Tumblr media
And these contained fully updated prints, too... The tapes now open with the 1989 Walt Disney Classics animated intro sequence, and the film prints used are different. DUMBO and SWORD IN THE STONE have a Buena Vista title card at their respective starts...
Curiously, DUMBO's ink label says "Walt Disney's CLASSIC"... But ALICE and SWORD use the old mid-80s headings...
Lastly, ALICE got a minor case update. The heading was finally changed from "WALT DISNEY'S" to "Walt Disney's CLASSIC" around early 1994...
Tumblr media
But for whatever reason, they never gave ALICE a new cover. The LaserDisc release from around this period used a much different rendering of the Mad Tea Party scene. A release I do not have, but am familiar with...
Tumblr media
Eventually, these would all be replaced when Disney ended the Classics line and started the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection. The day the line debuted, in October 1994 with the first-ever home video release of SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS, these titles were given all new covers, all-new tapes, all-new everything...
Tumblr media
DUMBO and SWORD's Masterpiece covers, as you can see, re-use the 1989 Classics covers. ALICE uses the LaserDisc artwork, and an all-new logo for the movie. These would be in print until a later release of sorts. (In DUMBO's case, the 2001 60th Anniversary release. In ALICE's case, a 2nd Masterpiece release in 1999. And in SWORD's case, the 2001 Gold Classic Collection release.)

Paradise Kiss: A Lesson on Dreams and Being Happy (heavy spoilers) Part 1
Tumblr media
Thanks to this totally random tweet about anime endings, I'm reminded of an old shoujo manga flame of mine from the early 2000s: Paradise Kiss, nicknamed ParaKiss by its mangaka and fans. In stereotypical Ai Yazawa fashion (baddum tss), this manga revolves around a hopelessly flawed yet peak relatable girl undergoing the trials and tribulations of self-discovery. It just so happens that the setting takes place in a generic, average-sized town in Japan, and it just so happens that this town is home to an eclectic ensemble cast of aspiring fashionistas and designers. And it also just so happens that this cast is at a crossroads: their 3rd year in high school. Yukari was initially on the conventional path of graduating with top marks and entering into a prestigious university. By the time we get to the 2nd chapter of the manga, we see Yukari cast all her mother's dreams aside to become a model in the cutthroat fashion industry.
We begin with our protagonist Yukari, who is enrolled in an elite private high school. She spends her days studying for college entrance exams, but early on, we discover that her hard work is very extrinsically motivated. Specifically, her mother has had an iron-clad grip on her life, and if not for a chance encounter on the street, Yukari would've continued on in this way. Living without living. Doing things that don't make her happy or give her any meaning -- a shell for others' aspirations and desires.
As I said, a chance encounter brings her to the hole-in-the-wall atelier, which was an antique bar rennovated into an... well, atelier for fashionistas attending the local art school. Yukari has been scouted by one of the students to model for their upcoming fashion show in the school's Culture Festival. Although she vehemently opposes the idea at first, Yukari decides to model for them, after witnessing firsthand the extent of their conviction and earnestness of their efforts.
I am deliberately downplaying George's role in here, because I do think future readers should get to know George (the manga's romantic lead and 90s toxic boy) at their own pace and through Yukari's perspective. Describing him would remove some of the magic that is necessary to experience through Yukari's besotted eyes, and Yazawa does a great job staging the cognitive dissonance Yukari herself feels when she's around George. What you should know right away is that George is the de facto leader of the Atelier group and designer behind the label Paradise Kiss. It is his word that becomes the final voice in asking Yukari to model, and it is his intoxicating presence that drives her to join them.
Tumblr media
All this to say, that there's a reason -- I think -- that ParaKiss, out of many other Shoujo or even Shounen romances of the 2000s, is still the only one being reprinted. Its 20th-anniversary edition was reprinted back in 2019. In the wake of Nana's permanent hiatus (Yazawa's more popular manga), ParaKiss's fandom is alive and well. More and more people are discovering it, thanks to the reductively short anime adaptation making its way to streaming services. The promise of a (very satisfying) conclusion provides a healing balm of sorts for deluded Nana fans, and the story in its entirety holds its own as a romance masterpiece. The art style, the fashion, the romance, and the writing are all top scorers, but something about ParaKiss remains startlingly unique despite more than 20 years passing us by. Very few shoujo manga dare to try what Yazawa has done with this story, and very few shoujo manga do it so seamlessly -- devoid of the mandatory witticisms and marvelizations so common in today's media. ParaKiss is honest. Brutally honest. Yukari's inner monologues and expressions anticipate what the audience is thinking, not because she's so clever but because we can all relate to her. We've all made that mistake we can't help making. We've all watched ourselves undergo the consequences of our stupid actions, with nothing but self-pity to help us weather the storm. And all of us have known the beauty of believing the world is full of limitless possibilities, and we've tasted the bittersweet revelation that limitations do exist, and that's okay.
In other words, you don't have to be an intellect to enjoy and feel the takeaways of ParaKiss. The mangaka isn't trying to wink and nudge you into believing you're a smart consumer, because Yukari's story (or perhaps, Yukari herself) speaks of a hurt deeper than narrative conflict. Her hurt comes from one's first love, whatever or whoever it may be. First love isn't always romance (although it's a huge part of Yukari's story in ParaKiss). First love is the feeling that everything is new and ripe for discovery. First love is the disappointment that this period of discovery is finite, but you're so much stronger and better for having gone through it, brief as it may be. That is Paradise for Yukari: first love as the Edenic coming-of-age journey she needed to become who she is meant to be.
Tumblr media
Many fans and critics agree that Paradise Kiss is a story about one's first love, and how you can have an impactful romance without it ending into a happily ever after. Of course I agree with this take. George is the 2nd protagonist, no question. His presence, actions, and personality catalyze the journey of self-discovery that Yukari finds in her last year of high school.
That said, I don't think enough attention has been paid to the other first love Yukari goes through: the world of fashion. Indeed, the story begins and ends with Yukari's time in the fashion world - her first thrills of modeling and her final, bittersweet acceptance of its inevitable end. This part of the story is so underhanded yet profoundly philosophical, I'm surprised discussions of fashion have become afterthoughts in any serious commentary of ParaKiss.
It's worth noting that Yukari doesn't exactly have insecurities directly related to her physical appearance. It's probably the most unrelatable part of her. When people comment on her beauty, she doesn't deny it, but she doesn't affirm it. We're meant to see and understand Yukari's natural beauty as a fact of her life, like the color of her hair or her height. She even brags about being able to stay skinny no matter how much she eats, which is the closest I came to hating a shoujo protagonist to be honest. Rather, her feelings of self-inadequacy stem from her immaturity, lack of style, and overall lack of self-confidence. In other words, when she starts the story believing her crush on classmate Tokumori is hopeless, she reasons, "Tokumori won't go for girls like me." Yukari doesn't mean she's too ugly for him. She means she's too inferior; too stupid; too 'uncool' for someone she perceives as the ideal. Even when she swiftly moves on to George and sets her sights on him, Yukari's feelings of worthlessness influence her behavior and decisions in the relationship, ultimately affecting how George himself treats her.
If Yukari's psyche sounds incoherent, it is and it isn't. It's realistically incoherent. Women are socially conditioned to find themselves inadequate in some way, and that self-perception is ultimately dictated by how men receive and project it back. This is the genius of ParaKiss. Whether or not you relate, this facet of Yukari's personality is an apt observation on what it means to be a woman as a high schooler, and I don't think it's an accident that prior to meeting the ParaKiss fashion team, Yukari's self-worth came entirely from her mother. For Yukari, growing up and leaving the nest means learning your place in the world in relation to men, and perhaps that's why Yukari's first love is riddled with so much pain, beauty, and joy.
Tumblr media
In this cut-out of a panel, Yukari finally asks herself the question that must be in the fore of everyone's minds: 'What am I to George?' What is she to the man she considers the most important to her? What are we in relation to men? It takes Yukari 6 months to figure out that she doesn't need George to answer the first part of that question. By the time the series ends, Yukari is able to ask the same question without George.
These romantic pitfalls and triumphs become more meaningful when you realize this occurs in the context of breaking out into the fashion industry. Similar to Eve in Milton's Paradise Lost, Yukari looks at a mirror and discovers herself. She falls in love with that image. She falls in love with what fashion (not George!) reflects back at her -- a confident, cool woman who can don all sorts of masks and clothes.
When she asks a veteran model for advice on how to walk the runway, the model cryptically replies, "Just tell yourself you're the most beautiful woman in the world." This is a hurdle for the likes of Yukari, whose low self-esteem has prevented her from truly being alive prior to the events of the story. When she does walk down that runway, fully confident and basking in the crowd's reaction to her beauty, Yukari finally understands what it means. Telling yourself you're the most beautiful woman in the world is akin to believing yourself a woman; akin to believing yourself a woman worth existing and hogging the spotlight, without a man to justify it. Yukari might have been wearing clothes that George designed, but one can argue that the dress would not exist without Yukari. Indeed, he designed it with her face and body in mind. Yukari herself inspires the art George believes he's creating, and Yukari herself embodies and imparts the meaning of that art for the audience when she walks down the runway.
Thanks to the fashion show and Yukari's success, George himself realizes he cannot design for ready-to-wear clothing lines. Yukari too discovers that modeling isn't something she can just do. It's something she can work hard at, succeed, fail, and still enjoy. Unlike the grind of studying endlessly for exams she'll never pass, Yukari finds fulfillment in trying and failing in the fashion industry, and this self-realization lets her redefine what it means to succeed and fail, as we all come to understand by the end of the manga.
Given that Ai Yazawa studied fashion, it's no surprise that clothing, design, and the industry's connections are all important for Yukari's coming-of-age. Modeling and wearing George's clothes aren't all butterflies and roses. As we later see by the end of the manga, fashion leaves Yukari feeling dehumanized at times, which Yukari outright states in an inner monologue by calling herself a 'doll.' The liberating potential of modeling becomes a prison, in the right context. When another woman -- particularly one who rejects modeling or being a man's muse and instead aims to be a designer herself -- enters George's life, Yukari feels helpless. The autonomy she gained by modeling bites back in a mocking display of her own shallow disregard for other women's agency. Indeed, she acts vile toward Kaori (the aspiring designer in question), solely because she's threatened by how George sees her as an equal. The potential of self-fulfillment comes crashing down when the implication here is that, as his muse and model, Yukari will never be his equal.
I'm going to take a second and point out how brilliant this brief love triangle is on the part of Ai Yazawa. We are so used to shoujo protagonists who are sweet, understanding, and unfailingly good. Yukari is a surprise, to say the least. She's not afraid to be mean and flaunt her beauty to intimidate her competition, and at the same time, she's not afraid to own up to her faults and wallow in self-pity when humbled. Although George is the intermediary in the love triangle, you can also see how the fashion industry itself pits women against each other. Yukari can't measure up to Kaori, the talented and mature designer with true compassion for her peers and classmates. The culture festival led Yukari to believe that she, as their model, takes center stage, but with the show over, her status as model reduces to her one of the many cogs that prop up designers' creativity and will. If God is the designer in this paradise, then Eve is just a shell of and for his designs, just as Yukari recedes to a doll when George no longer respects her. Life, it seems, is difficult for a fashion model who seeks to affirm her existence and purpose in a world that devalues such traits in the first place.
Tumblr media
Spoilers: George and Yukari's relationship lasts only 6 months, but Yukari's relationship with fashion lasts much longer: 10 years. In the manga's epilogue, Yukari is nearing retirement, and she mentions 'plateauing' in her career as a model. Although as a teenager she aspired to be a world class super model, her work only takes her to other cities in Japan, and she is content to end less with a bang and more like a firm sense of dignity and pride at her work.
It's also no shocker that, rather than confirm her retirement, the manga ends with an announcement of her engagement and imminent marriage to her Tokumori, her high school crush and classmate. The last panels mock the sense that first loves are more powerful than the present love they experience (which is so amazing and Part 2 will be about that), and while these lighthearted panels tell us it's a joke, you can easily see how those words apply to Yukari's love affair with fashion.
Her crush and first love spur her to 10 years of a successful career. Perhaps she never realized her ambitions of modeling in the West, but she nevertheless finds and declares herself successful. This is what first love is. You might start out believing it needs to be 'happily ever after,' but you can end it and grow and realize that 'remembered ever after' is just as good, for the role it had in your life and your growth.
Yukari isn't just telling us the story of her first love with George. She's also telling us the story of how she fell in love with herself through fashion, and how her job as a model helped her live the many lives she otherwise would've never experienced if she had stayed on her mother's preplanned course.
Fashion isn't just about the clothes, the romance, or the glamorous lifestyles. Fashion is looking back and basking in being looked at. Fashion is making meaning out of how others perceive you, and fashion can be a cruel reminder that those meanings are already preordained and predetermined. Yukari doesn't necessarily fight against that. She embraces it all and learns from it.
I'm going to stop here, because I don't think an essay about ParaKiss and first love is complete without talking about George's own implied ending and Tokumori's constant presence in the beginning, middle, and end of Yukari's story. There's still so much to say, so I'll save it for Part 2. For now, let me conclude with the argument that Paradise Kiss is so unique in so many ways. It takes on the typical rhythms and beats of a shoujo manga, but it also embraces the flaws, ugliness, and messiness of love as it manifests in romance and fashion. You can't appreciate and love ParaKiss without understanding how Yazawa carefully crafts and packages a coming-of-age story into a seemingly typical love story. To use the jargon of the trade, we come into ParaKiss believing the firm and distinct boundary separating haute couture from ready-to-wear. Fashion is both, and to fall in love with it is beautiful.

Lee Minwoo successfully completes solo 20th anniversary concert… 'All-time Legend' artiste
Tumblr media

Singer Lee Min Woo successfully completed his 20th solo anniversary concert, proving that he is a 'legendary solo artiste.'
Lee Min Woo held his last show for his 20th solo anniversary concert "STORY" on 2nd July at Shinhan pLay Square Live Hall.
During the concert, which was a series of 8 shows that began on 23rd June, Lee Min Woo captured the hearts of fans over a running time of about 150 minutes through his usual impressive performances, as well as stable vocals, sweet stage mannerisms, and witty remarks.
# Setlist that changes with each show, differentiated concepts
Lee Min Woo made sure that fans who went for multiple shows would enjoy a unique experience each time and not get bored by changing the setlist for each of the 8 shows. During the segment 'TIME to listen to songs sung in M's voice' where he personally sang songs recommended by fans using a karaoke machine he prepared, Minwoo received a passionately hot response to his version of songs in various genres by artistes NewJeans, Im Youngwoong, Sung Sikyung, Melomance, Black Pink's Jisoo, S.E.S, H.O.T, Jannabi, Damons Year, Crush, Jang Beomjun, YB, Kim Jongseo, COOL, and Shinhwa.
Additionally, through dance challenges of different idol dances by BTS Jimin, BTS J-Hope, Jisoo, NewJeans, LE SSERAFIM, SEVENTEEN, NCT Taeyong, and Taeyang, he caught the attention of fans by performing as a "first-generation top idol" should.
To top it off, Lee Min Woo drew attention with his colourful fashion and atmosphere by setting a special 'dress code' for each of the 8 shows. A total of 8 concepts were set, namely Retro Look, Cutie Look, Date Look, Red Point Look, Vintage Look, HIP Look, Denim Look, and Vacation Look, giving each show a different vibe together with the fans.
# New song in 9 years, Wonder U
At the concert, Lee Min Woo not only performed existing hit songs and hidden masterpieces, but also prepared a surprise gift of a new song for the fans who have consistently supported him for the past 20 years or so. It is the first time in about 9 years that Lee Min Woo released a new song under his solo stage name "M", since his "M+TEN" album released in 2014.
Lee Min Woo made me look forward to his future plans with his more sophisticated and upgraded music, even more so than his current 'M' image.
# Legendary Artiste Presence
Lee Min Woo delighted his fans' eyes and ears by presenting songs of various genres and moods that he has released over the past 20 years. From an emotional and calming mood to fatal sexiness, intense and powerful performances, a funky style that makes those watching want to move their shoulders, and the sweet appearances that captures women's hearts… we enjoyed all these high-quality stages that only Lee Min Woo could do.
He also performed all the songs with a live band, showing off his perfect skills as an "All-time Legend".
After finishing all the shows, Lee Min Woo said, "Performing 8 shows was a huge challenge for myself." He also shared his gratitude, "I am grateful to the fans for making this challenge possible." "It was a precious time where I was able to sincerely do my best. I was so happy," he shared, expressing his emotions.

The second-generation Elantra Avante (Project J2/RD) [24] was released on March 16, 1995, and was equipped with a 1.5-liter Alpha engine and a 138-horsepower 1.8-liter Beta engine.[25][26] Sepia and Espero fight fiercely with a sleek design with prominent waterdrop-shaped curves without a ra열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)diator grill, output and performance that does not lag behind Elantra, wide interior space [29] and stable driving feel [30] A monumental model that has risen to become the absolute No. 1 in the semi-mid-size market, and has kept the undisputed No. 1 in sales in the semi-mid-size class to열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결) this day. Here, with a localization rate of 99.9%, it is the second fully localized model following the Accent, and is considered the best masterpiece of Hyundai Motor Company. Hyundai Motor Company made it with great care as a completely independently developed model with the Accent, and thanks to this, it received the best evaluation among all Avantes.[31][32] This video is a video showing a stunt with the Avante by the Namyang Research Institute team in 1996, and the driving skills of the development team and the fantastic d열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)riving of the Avante are perfect. The group acrobatic driving and drifting reminds me of the 2nd generation Isuzu Gemini CM.[33][34] As shown in this video, you can see that the durability and solid driving performance of the old Avante is not an exaggeration. As soon as it was released, it sold 3,669 units from the first day, causing a sensation, and enjoyed great popularity enough to exceed 10,000 units for the first time with a contract number of 11,600 units. In December 1995 alone, 25,232 units were sold, and in 1996, it recorded an astonishing sales volume of 192,109 units, the number 1 record in annu열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)al sales of a single domestic semi-mid-sized single car that has not been broken until now. As it is, it has become a byword for the semi-medium class.[37] This popularity continued not only in Korea but also abroad. In 1995, at the Moscow Motor Show, it won the grand prize by beating Japanese cars and other imported cars that are famous 열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)for their strong fan base and basic skills. In October of the same year, it was selected as the best car selected by Auto Moto und Sport, a German automobile magazine, and received favorable reviews from all over the world. The following year, in 1997, when Nubira appeared as a strong competitor, it slowed down a bit, but as the situation and image of Daewoo Motors deteriorated, it regained its place. At the time, it was the first in its class to be equipped with dual airbags (optional),[38] and for the first time, a 2DIN CD player with an ANTI-THEFT system[39] option was also applied to high-end specifications.[40]
The lineup consisted of three types: 1.5 GLS, GLS DLX PACK, and 1.8 GLS DLX, but in May 1996, a low-cost model, the 1.5 GL, was added, and in May 1997, the 30th anniversary of Hyundai Motor / 50th anniversary of Hyundai Group , the 50th anniversary special model [41], which was differentiated with a 5-spoke wheel and equipped with a leather gear knob and steering wheel, appeared, followed by the top-of-the-line GOLD trim, which was added in July. Wood grain was adopted, and a gold-plated Hyundai emblem, gold-plated A V A N T E lettering, and premium hu열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)bcaps, rear spoiler, and side molding were added to the existing special edition wheels. At that time, the car price of the GOLD trim exceeded 10 million won for the first time among semi-mid-size vehicles. Later, as limited sales of the special edition ended, the specifications appli열혈강호 다시 보기 무료보기 TXT 만화책 (완결)d to the special edition naturally moved to the DLX PACK trim as an option at the end of 1997 and continued until just before discontinuation. It was added to the driver's seat only in the special edition and gold, but it was extended to the driver's seat in the 1998 model year.
In the early days of its appearance, the eyeball-shaped brake light was also a significant issue. The curved design emphasizes femininity, and at the same time, the middle of the brake light has a structure that does not light up, because there is a reflector in its place. When viewed from a distance, it looks like a raised eyeball, so it was evaluated as a cat's eye color.

✨ REVIEWING ALL OF THE SONGS IN EVERY 1D ALBUM CAUSE TODAY IS THE ANNIVERSARY ✨
(UAN EDITION)
WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL
The first song and they are already calling us insecure, thanks guys much appreciated
I hear this song and all I can see is that meme of Niall's aerobics classes, you know the one 😂
GOTTA BE YOU
The video for this song is too damn depressing and for what??
I have a theory there's a little part of this song that humans can't hear cause the pitch IS TOO DAMN HIGH
ONE THING
MY BABY THE LIGHT IF MY LIFE MY MOST PRECIOUS POSSESION THIS WAS THE FIRST SONG I HEARD OF THEM AND MY 11 YEAR OLD BRAIN THOUGHT IT WAS HILARIOUS THAT THE SONG WAS NAMED ONE THING AND THE BAND WAS NAMED ONE DIRECTION AND THAT'S HOW THE OBSSESION STARTED
The video is soooooo British it literally screams to you "THIS BAND IS BRITISH DID YOU KNOW THIS BAND IS BRITISH" and I love her for it 😌
MORE THAN THIS
Zayn's solo 🥺🥰😍🤩😘💞💕💓💘💖💗💝💟
Please have your kleenex always near by when you listen to this song 🤧🤧
UP ALL NIGHT
This song is the literal definition of bubblegum pop and she's an icon for it
Never understood why it didn't get a video is the album tittle song what's th up with that? 🤔
I WISH
This one's a skip, it literally does nothing for me 😐
"If only time could just turn back" same buddy same
TELL ME A LIE
I mean idk you're the compulsive liars here, you tell me 😒
This song is only Harry and Liam and a little sprinkle of Zayn in the 2nd verse *sigh*
TAKEN
This song used give so many feels at 12 yo!!! My younger self used to go so fucking emo for this
This sound exactly like the premise of a very shitty het fanfic 🤷🏻‍♀️
I WANT
MY 2ND FAV SONG IN THIS HELL OF AN ALBUM 🥰🥰🥰🥰
THAT GUITAR SOLO OMGGGGGGGG KILL ME NOW
EVERYTHING ABOUT YOU
When you say to me "Up All Night album" I immediately think of this song
"Forget about the clock that's tick-tick-ticking" this part always makes me giggle like a schoolgirl 🤭
SAME MISTAKES
"Circles, we’re going in circles" -> the 1D/larry fandom motto
Hey, look! This is not a Harry/Liam song is a Liam/Zayn song for exchange 😀
SAVE YOU TONIGHT
I underestimate this song so much but it goes so hard!!! 🕺🕺
"I can't be no superman, but for you I'll be super human" lyrical masterpiece right there
STOLE MY HEART
Remember when 1D tried to do an electronic song? Yeah me neither
Just kidding, this song slaps 👏

My personal ranking of the Brown Eyed Girls solo releases 💛
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
In honor of their 16th anniversary I decided to rank their solo releases, I have done their title tracks before but never thought to do this so now is the perfect time. I did add their solos from their RE_ vive album. I also decided to omit a few releases as Gain, JeA and Miryo all have their big major releases but they also randomly release random digital singles or OSTs and they aren't always as great and I never listen to them. So I decided to save myself time and not include those, so RIP to We Fell In Love, Nostalgia, Rock Paper Scissors, Bad Girl etc etc. This was just for fun, just because a song is low doesn't mean I hate it, someone has to be at the top and someone has to be at the bottom.
1. Dear Rude by JeA feat. Cheetah : A male fan once had the audacity to say to her to she needs to retire and find and husband/have children, this song talks on the misogyny of the industry of how if she was not a girl she wouldn't be told such things, she can do whatever she wants 🤘😤🤘
2. Invitation by Miryo feat. Uhm Jung Hwa : Literally this was a masterpiece, the most iconic thing she has done honestly 😍
3. Bbi Ri Bba Bba by Narsha : the queen witch, she earned the title Korea's Lady Gaga, really wish she would give us that 2nd mini album, it's been 12 years 😭
4. Paradise Lost by Gain : Loved the blue hair, she's an icon and also fuck YG for making those boys of the mixnine show cover this song and completely fail, it was such a bad arrangement
5. Yellow by Miryo : I love the dreamy rap vibe she gave us
6. Ain't Got Nobody by Miryo feat. DEAN : Her Unpretty Rapstar song, super hype, would love it if these two collab again 🤘😍🤘
7. Irreversible by Gain : her solo debut, we love an accordion, she gave us a dramatic MV, dancing in the dessert, this song is 12 years old 😭
8. I Love You, I Love You by Miryo feat. Sunny : I never thought I would see a BEG/SNSD interaction like this because both groups are so different, Sunny has a beautiful voice
9. Bloom by Gain : The mature version of IU's Good Day, I was so shocked when I saw she dyed her hair blonde, one of her few positive happy releases that's not dark or artsy
10. Fxxk You by Gain feat. Bumkey : I felt conflicted on where to put this, it's a great song with solid vocals and production however because of the theme of the song it's not something I go out of my way to listen, concept wise it's the best solo release of all the girls for sure 👏👏👏
11. I'm In Love by Narsha : Her vocals are so sweet, I wonder if she or her members sang this at her wedding 😭
12. Dirty by Miryo : Her official solo debut, she clickbaited us with those teasers thinking it would be a horror esque concept song BUT I still love how this song turned out!
13. Can I See You Again by Miryo : I love her rap style, her voice sounds great, the start of her low budget era !!
14. Truth or Dare by Gain : Love the concept, not crazy about the Blurred Lines production vibe HOWEVER she sampled her line from Brown Eyed Girls L.O.V.E!! It was brief but I lost it when she did that!! Queen samples her own songs in her songs, ground-breaking
15. Mamma Mia! by Narsha feat. Sunny Hill : Probably not many peoples favorite song, however I love it, the crazy autotune on SH, the sing talk rap, plus the adult 🔞 concept, she is the adult idol! 💋
16. Love Like A Spring Rain, Farewell Like A Winter Rain by Narsha : Such a long title, her first solo release in forever, it was very cute and I was hoping this would jumpstart her solo return but alas...
17. Winter It's You by JeA : Her xmas song, very beautiful, her vocals are unrivalled
18. Apple by Gain feat. Jay Park : fun and flirty, minus points for the feature, he was okay but ugh why not ask your girl Miryo or even Taecyeon of 2PM 👀
19. Greedyy by JeA feat. 😬 : love that IU wrote this for her, a solid song, JeA is highly known as the ballad queen so for to her release this was a nice breath of fresh air, would be higher but minus points for the feature, she's BFFs with Cheetah, she got Miryo like.... There's other women out there to have feature....
20. Let's Hug by JeA feat. Jungyup of Brown Eyed Soul : When legends unite, their voices blend well together
21. Stray Cat by JeA : I was very happy with her debut solo album and that we got 3 singles from it, love the artsy MV
22. Carnival (The Last Day) by Gain : Admittedly I'm not crazy about this like her others however I do love it just not as much as her others 😞 sorry
23. While You're Sleeping by JeA : she sings her heart out in this song, very lengthy but she kills it
24. Brunch by Gain & Hyungwoo : Her random duet album, I wonder if Jo Kwon was jealous 👀
25. Because You Sting by JeA & G.O of MBLAQ : a solid duet 👌
26. Bad Temper by Gain : A good song, it's over 10 years old and while I listened to it a lot when it was released it is one of the songs I slowly stopped listening to because she added better songs to her discography
27. A Tempo by Gain : this was clearly a reject IU song she was given but I love it
28. The Letter by JeA : a solid ballad but this time there is a violin 🎻
29. Only You by Gain : I like the eerie vibe it has
30. You're Different by JeA feat. Ra.D : A solid ballad, one of the last few ballads she released that I had any interest in, she's got a great voice but sometimes I want more than a ballad
31. Queen by Miryo feat. Gain : A low budget song that you would probably hear in a trashy gay club that can't afford to play good music, it's a guilty pleasure song 😬😞
~~~~~~~~~
In closing they are one of thew few groups where all the members have solo music, obviously Gain is the most successful solo wise and gave us many iconic moments that can't be replicated, Narsha gave us everything and then disappeared, Miryo gave us a solid solo debut then took a long break and now just gives us droplets here and there, and JeA is our ballad queen who on occasion has given us something new which I love! I'm not sure when they'll get back together or when we'll get more solos but nonetheless they all have a solid catalog of songs to listen too 👌
Brown Eyed Girls 👑
💛JeA💛Narsha💛Miryo💛Gain💛
