Blow Your Mind - It's Mr. Simple

This video came out a few days ago but I've been so wrapped up in its awesomeness that I have neglected to blog about until today.

I am a woman of few words (ha!) and so I will let the video speak for itself -

I don't really like that there is an intro video to the main music video. But I overlook it because I really, really like Mr. Simple. And they look  sooo gooood!

With the release of a new CD comes a flurry of activity to promote it. Here is the live performance of Mr. Simple on Music Bank from August 5, 2011. Watch it quick, before it is removed -

I think I like the live performance better than video.

Here is another song from the same show on the same night. It is called "Superman". It is unlike anything I've ever heard by Super Junior and I absolutely  LOVE  it! The rhythm and chanting are haunting -

I look forward to the day I can download that one from iTunes. But until then, I will be repeatedly pushing the replay button to hear it again and again.

Rock on Super Junior!

Mr. Simple

Tomorrow Super Junior's new CD comes out! In Korea. So hard to buy it when you are stuck in the good ol' USA. Of course you can buy it online but the shipping is so expensive and it takes a couple of weeks to get here. Bummer!

Fortunately it's available for download on iTunes. Hooray for iTunes! I'm rockin' out to the tunes as I write this. LOVE IT!

Here are few songs for your listening enjoyment -

Mr. Simple, the title track from the CD -





Be My Girl, my second favorite song -




Sunflower, an easy-listening song for old people like me (just kidding, I'm not old, you sillies!)



My sister-in-law recently asked me if it bothered me to listen to songs when I don't understand the words. I actually find it kind of refreshing to listen to music that has no swearing (that I know of) or anything suggestive (that I know of) in the lyrics. I mostly listen when I'm exercising and that tends to drive the words into my brain and I can't get them out of my head. This way I recognize a few words here and there and I don't worry about the words I don't know. Simple.

So, did you like the tunes? I hope you did. And if you did, then please buy them (and the rest of the album, because it's great) on iTunes. Thanks.
