my two cents on the desire unleash tracklist...i want to know why we need multiple english/korean versions of a song on an album. i really don't like that kpop does this bc then u have like (in this case) 2x2 versions of the same song on the album. i'd rather have a shorter mini album and a single album for the english versions of the songs bc it messes with cohesion. they already put so much effort into building up the aesthetics and tone of the album and the tracklisting kinda just puts a dent in that. like ik kpop is not the place to look for cohesion in album tracklisting but they did it with dark blood so why not here?? i had the same pet peeve with orange blood, which has such good tracks but the tracklisting takes me out of the immersion cause it has 3 (3!!!) versions of sweet venom on it lol

anyway i'm still super excited for the new songs!

poetry is wild because in any given collection 30% of it will make you feel nothing, 60% will make you feel varying levels of confused and curious, and the other 10% will crack open your brain like an egg and reveal new truths about the human condition

i'm not a human i'm a magical goblin!! i cook soup with vegetables from my backyard garden and hang out in the woods. this is also entirely true and not a form of escaping reality.
