When listening to this jazz-based ballad, I visualize a scene at a warm, cozy cafe with a special someone. If you’re looking for a song that touches your heart, then “Flower Tea” should be your pick from this tracklist. Personally, I find this track super unique in its own style, which was the main essence that captured my attention within the first few listens. This trendy track is most definitely laid-back and mellow in comparison to the girl group’s lively title song, but the lyrics illustrate the flustered emotions one can feel as they fall more and more for their crush. “Dolphin” brings a touch of groove and chill as the vocals fully weave into the minimal beats of the song. Seventh Mini-Album: NONSTOPĪlong with their title track “Nonstop,” Oh My Girl’s mini-album includes four other track songs that contribute to the girl group’s new transformation. The choreography is showcased in a simpler, white setting, which provides a nice balance between the eye-popping color scenes that communicate the story while giving the viewers an introduction to the group’s ability to pull off both powerful and delicate movements. The addition of digital content such as the holographic appearance of the members or the graphic teddy bear that acts as the figure that caused the heart-fluttering confusion further enhance the unrealistic scenario of falling for a “friend” that has come to life in the video. As if the members are in a virtual world, the vivid color schemes of the scenes depict a dreamlike journey of love as the girl group expresses this surreal emotion as if they’re in a board game. Employing isometric visualizations as backgrounds, the film implements an interesting combination of digital graphics and real-life figures while highlighting Oh My Girl’s dumbfoundedness at their true emotions.
And this is one more jewel in their crown.The music video is a brilliant accompaniment to the lively track. The choreography is pretty good, though hardly the whole point.Īs I said, Oh My Girl rarely disappoints with their videos. The backgrounds are lovely pink skies with fluffy clouds. There are dancing scenes that take place in that cityscape. But it also doesn't stop the video from being seriously cool. South Korea never had a wild west, but they didn't let that stop them. There's not that much of a point to all this, and things pop up at random, such as a wild west scene. We have rooms that fold into wardrobes, fireworks that go off in a hair salon, items that circle the girls, and much, much more. Then YooA is texting Hyojung and Binnie who appear as holograms on the other side of YooA. We see a shot of Jiho on the roof of a car in the plastic cityscape of the game. It starts with a scene of Paris, which turns out to be just a board game. The MV itself is a veritable cornucopia of awesome. Oh My Girl has released a bevy of interesting music videos over their career, and " Nonstop" is no exception. This was a delightful, danceable diversion. Slickly-produced pop like this is an absolute pleasure to listen to, especially when nearly every song is a bop. With seven mini-albums under their belts, they should know what they're doing. But at its heart, it's meant to soothe and be mostly unobtrusive. They try to jazz it up a bit here and there. They go softer on " Krystal." It's soft pop, with all that entails. Neither of those are bad things, and they produced an enjoyable, danceable song. It's got kind of a disco sound in parts and other parts kinda reminded me of Girl's Generation. If you want a straight-ahead club banger then " NEON" is your song. It's not as fun or bouncy as the tracks that come before it.
It's okay, but I'm not a fan of this song. " Flower Tea" is the ballad on this EP, stuck smack dab in the middle. Like the confidence that comes shining through on this one. But there other indicators that we're listening to a modern tune. It's guitar-oriented, and sometimes it reminds me of their earlier B-sides, closer to debut. " Dolphin" is quieter and more mellow than the first track. This one is a lot of fun, and we get Mimi back on raps. I like the way they sing in a pretty higher register for one line, and the next line is sung in a lower register and sounds a bit staccato/hip-hop. Oh My Girl has just released their new mini-album, ' Nonstop.' The EP has 5 tracks, including the title track of the same name as the album.
