SHINee day and night photoshoot with eng subs

A series of old videos. But its SHINee! :)

We came across it on YouTube so thought we'd share it. It has the famous 'Key's anyŏng Pussycat Lalalala' scene. The cutest ever! And a lot of other cute fun that SHINee had in New Zealand! Enjoy!

Lucifer-SHINee (Japanese ver.) [Review+MV+Translation]

SO ITS FINALLY OUT! After what seems like a long (too long) wait, SHINee has finally released the MV for Lucifer! Now, I personally LOVE Lucifer. It was the first SHINee song I liked after 'Stand by me'. So how good is the Japanese version?

THE VIDEO
Its pretty much the same as the Korean one.In some shots they are dancing, in other ones they are walking or standing with the..err.. smoky (?) thing following them around. I guess that would be my only complaint. It's pretty much the same. The only thing different apart from the sets/costumes etc. would be that the..smoky thing is a lot more prominent in this one But i wouldn't necessarily say its a plus point.
Score: 4/5

THE DANCE
It was bloody awesome when I first saw it, it is STILL freaking awesome.

 Score: 5/5

THE LOOK
No more psychedelic clothes! Phew! What a relief! Taemin, Taemin.. WHAT were you thinking when you wore that leather hat? I mean, what in the name of God IS that?It does not make any sense whatsoever. And a whip? really, now.. WHY?! But some of the stuff they wear continue to be questionable (Onew's half purple half pink shirt and Key's checkered harem pants for example) proving that SM seriously needs to provide them with a better stylist.The makeup has been toned down, which is nice. Not that I complained in the Korean version, but you get my point.

Score: 2.5/5

THE SONG
The tune of the song is super catchy although in all honesty I prefer the Korean version better. For some reason the lyrics just does not sound right. And apparently I am not the only one as a lot of other people have stated the same too. Also, it has been said by a lot of Japanese-speaking shawols that their pronunciation was quite bad, but i will not comment on that since I don't speak Japanese.  But the basic meaning of the song has been kept the same.
Here is the translation. All due credits to Forevershiningshinee for this-
I cant even hide
No matter where I go

So what should I do?

I only have one wish. If you do not love me
Stop it.. Her Whisper is the lucifer

This love is meaningless
But we still force it to work out, in the end pain is all we left with
Being alone compared to now
I will still only love you

Cannot escape from the Lucifer
Your forces are as powerful as the Lucifer
Once fallen in love with you, reality is crushed
I want to stop all this

First time having met you
Is only a brief encounter but it felt like our relationship will last forever
Perhaps.

I cannot look into your eyes because retreat(?)
You will make me

Have decisions set, you kept making me go crazy
What you hope for is not perfection
Unable to speak out NONONONO no want me
It is getting weirder YOU YOU YOU YOU you are the focal point

Must have chosen the wrong path and yet have forgotten
Now I can only see you, what’s in front of me .. yeah
Miss you more and more

This love is meaningless
But we still force it to work out, in the end pain is all we left with
Being alone compared to now
I will still only love you

More and more annoyed more and more worried
Just because I cannot answer you

Other than worry
I am unable to carry out other tasks

{RAP}

Having my body and soul taken away, I can only wait
Near.. there’s no way to escape
Avoiding the stares Seemingly mystified by these words
Binding both hands Means tell me why

This love is meaningless
But we still force it to work out, in the end, pain is all we are left with
Being alone compared to now
I will still only love you

Just like a clown locked up in a glass castle
Now Let’s Go, let’s leave everything behind
~Let’s go, reach for freedom

Unable to draw the lines, everything ends up in pain only
Now Let’s Go~
~Let’s go, I dont want to do this anymore

This love is meaningless
But we still force it to work out, in the end pain is all we left with

Loverholic Robotronic

Once our gaze have met, it is unable to escape from the clutches of Lucifer
Score: 3.5/5 (yes, I'm being partial. Because..it's Lucifer!)


TOTAL: 4+5+2.5+3.5= 15/20 :(

So in end all I have to say is, SM, you are slowly becoming so perfect at wasting talent, it should be considered an offence. Seriously. Spend some money on new sets, clothes, stylists and songs already! SHINee (and SUJU) deserves a lot more than recycled songs and costumes.

SHINee Fighting! Hope you have a Korean comeback soon! :)

P.S.- Jonghyun still manages to look hot despite the weird costumes SM gives him. True talent  right here I tell you :D
