  • We ‘Can’t Stop’ Listening To TXT’s Third Japanese Album, Starkissed

    [ad_1]

    Let us start by saying that Starkissed is the most perfect name for a TXT album. It’s beyond fitting, and just so cute. TXT’s most recent album finished with ‘Song of the Stars,’ and now we get lots of Starkissed songs!

    Instrumentals

    One of the very best things about TXT’s Japanese albums is that we are treated to beautiful intro and outro instrumentals! ‘Intro: SPARK’ and ‘Outro: GLOW’ are no exception. We love how these two tracks open and close this chapter and, as always, we hope to see them live on in something else too… perhaps background music for the VCRs at the ACT: TOMORROW Japan Dome Tour? TXT’s creative team, our door is always open.

    ‘Can’t Stop’

    The names ‘SPARK’ and ‘GLOW’ for an album with a starry concept are so gorgeous too, but they’re not the most-aptly named songs on Starkissed. The title track, ‘Can’t Stop,’ is perfect. It’s shot up to the top of all our ‘On Repeat’ playlists, and we truly ‘Can’t Stop’ streaming it. TXT, like a lot of K-Pop groups, usually lean towards ballads for Japanese singles, and this is easily their most fun, catchy Japanese release to date. Full of 80s synth and irresistible guitar riffs, the THP MOA hive was never going to survive this comeback unscathed. 

    Original Japanese B-Sides

    Another one of the new Japanese original songs on Starkissed is ‘Where Do You Go?,’ a song that made us immediately jealous that we won’t be attending the Japan tour shows to see this IRL. It has a cute, bright energy that we haven’t seen from TXT in a while, and instantly reminded us of 2020’s ‘Wishlist.’ 

    The final original track is ‘SSS (Sending Secret Signals),’ which is a pretty good tongue twister. Written by HYDE, this song is rich with the rock-pop energy everybody loves to see from TXT. The pre-chorus breakdown stole our breath the first time we heard it, not to mention Yeonjun’s spoken lines. HYDE is a music icon in Japan, having been active in the industry since 1988. As TXT’s global and Japanese fandoms continue to grow, we are so happy to see them getting the opportunities to work with such storied artists! 

    Re-Releases

    Additionally, we were treated to Japanese versions of some of our other favorite TXT singles, ‘Beautiful Strangers,’ and ‘Deja Vu,’ as well as re-releases of ‘Step by Step,’ ‘Rise,’ and CHIKAI’s ‘We’ll Never Change’ and ‘Kitto Zutto.’ Not to mention that we, of course, had to be gifted with a Japanese version of our beloved ‘Song of the Stars!’

    With the Starkissed release, we’ve got to indulge in several brand new songs, renew our love for some familiar ones, and enjoy plenty of TXT content on Japanese music and variety shows! Considering The Star Chapter: TOGETHER still feels like it came out yesterday (how has it been three months already?!), MOAs really do feel like the luckiest fandom.

  • Which TXT The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY Song Are You Based On Your Zodiac Sign?

    Which TXT The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY Song Are You Based On Your Zodiac Sign?

    [ad_1]

    Listen, when TXT begins a new era called The Star Chapter, what are astrology-obsessed MOAs meant to do? Obviously, our brains immediately started whirring, and now here we are. If TXT want to be stars in the night sky, we’ll let them! Here’s which track from TXT’s The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY you should stream based on your zodiac sign.

    ‘Heaven’ – Pisces, Libra

    ‘Heaven’ is for the romantics, so naturally, we had to give it to Pisces and Libra. These two signs are well-known for being the most starry-eyed among us, and with lyrics like “From 1 to 10 you’re like an 11,” ‘Heaven’ simply had to be for them.

    ‘Over The Moon’ – Cancer, Leo

    Next up is TXT’s title track from The Star Chapter: SANCTUARY, ‘Over The Moon,’ and these song choices were easy; the clue is in the title (track). The Cancer zodiac is ruled by the moon, so we had to pair them up! As for Leos, they love the spotlight, so they obviously have lead single energy. Combine that with the bright and intense rock energy of ‘Over The Moon,’ and you have a match made in heaven. Oh no wait, that was the last song…

    ‘Danger’ – Gemini, Sagittarius

    These two star signs matching with TXT’s ‘Danger’ was a no-brainer. Geminis and Sagittarians are known for their spontaneity and curiosity. They’re not afraid and will say “Give me some of that danger,” any day.

    ‘Resist (Not Gonna Run Away)’ – Taurus, Virgo

    From the two of the most curious zodiacs to two of the most stubborn. ‘Resist’ is passionate and committed, just like these two earth placements. From TXT’s dreamy falsettos to the reggaeton production, we’d be honored to have this one matched with our star signs.

    ‘Forty One Winks’ – Scorpio, Aquarius

    ‘Forty One Winks’ is for the quirky cool kids, AKA Scorpio and Aquarius. The romantic R&B energy is a perfect match for a sensual Scorpio. As for Aquarians? They play by their own rules, and so does ‘Forty One Winks’ with its play on words and imbued confidence.

    ‘Higher Than Heaven’ – Aries, Capricorn

    Last, but definitely not least, we have Aries and Capricorn. Both are cardinal signs, which means they’re known to be trendsetters and march towards their goals. With ‘Higher Than Heaven,’ that’s exactly what TXT do too! The track is quintessential rock TXT, but they’re still pushing themselves and their music to evolve and reach “higher!”
