Kpop: 2Eyes - Pippi

2Eyes debuted two years ago with moderately successful "Don't mess with me" but after that they have been invisible, until now. The new song is quite average but has one feature making it interesting, and that is its Pippi (Longstocking) theme, which for me as a Swede is noticable. This has already been tried quite recently, last Christmas by The Queen B'z, and the song doesn't do 2Eyes much good either, I am sad to say.

Kpop: Queen B'z - Pippi (삐삐)

Well, as a Swede, in the end I really had to write about this as Korean pop girls Queen B'z takes their inpsiration from Swedish Pippi Longstocking in the rakish and fun styled video. It is rather interesting to see a rookie group go from cool and sexy (in their vampire themed debut "Bad") to childish and cute in their next concept. But why not?

Kpop: Queen B'z

The group previously known as P.O.P Con in 2012, made a "re-debut" as Queen B'z this autumn with the somewhat different bloody vampire-hunter styled "Bad". Come Christmas Day they softened this with a cutesy song "2014 Wishlist" (2014 희망사항). While being a quite ordinary song, it is still better than many other sub-par - holiday offerings from kpop super-groups.
