Kpop: Exo - Lucky One & Monster

Korean super stars EXO is back! And again they deliver two videos AND two language versions as they always had, giving Chinese fans that extra chance to dig their music. I suppose "Monster" is visually and musically more complicated, but I like the more happy dance number "Lucky One", but both are great songs.

Jpop: Dempagumi.inc - STAR☆TT Shichauze Harudashi ne

I have a really hard time decoding the meaning of the Japanese title of the new song from Dempagumi.inc, my best guest being "It's time for this darn spring to start!", but anyway, the video itself is a whopping 8:52 long but then the last four minutes is basically ending credits made fun by the girls. If you know them since before, this video delivers more of their nerdy, happy high-speed idol pop, and if you haven't; if you feel the least thirst for more they have a heap of even more nerdy songs and videos since before. Enjoy!

Jpop: Suiyoubi no Campanella - Chupacabra (チュパカブラ)

This time around, hip japanese band Suiyoubi no Campanella releases the song "Chupacabra" which is the name of a legendary being which has its origin in Puerto Rico, and which supposedly suck the blood from livestock animals. Even more strange, this song is used for a Red Bull campaign in Japan. The video strikes me as a metaphor for getting high on drugs, but everyone can judge for themselves. It is also a very typical and cool SnC track and that makes it all perfect.

Jpop: Kyary Pamyu Pamyu - Invader Invader

Invader Invader is the latest song and video from Japan's own 'Fashion Monster', Kyary Pamyu Pamyu. She describes the background and theme of the video rather well herself, but its basically about her being an alien trying to take over the world with fashion. Not so far from the truth then?｡◕‿◕｡
