GFriend's Future Musical Direction? (2 Viewers)

[Darkyoda47]

You know how old Yoda is.

She's been around for hundreds of Years.

She may be able to lift an X-Wing with her mind.

But there's bound to be a few cobwebs up there.

They're blocking the SS & Fingertip Like Receptors.

Much to learn, you have. Good songs, they are not.

Actually GFRIEND'S digital index was the highest of GGs 2019 (Sunrise, that is) until like a week ago, so everybody be flopping

yep 160m dp using ~.39 dl per dp = ~ 410k dl on pace to by the 6 month be at FT LW numbers easily

Uh oh. I have this feeling Yoda will force lighting my ass.

Not fair to compare like that. The digital market has seen exponential growth since 2017 so Sunrise surpassing FT and LW's numbers is a given. With Gaon 200, we might even see it reach 1M downloads.

And sunrise is still top 60 monthly, may not chart out of the 100 until June.
Juan crunched the numbers and 2017 was 1.3 -1.4x if i remember correctly.
so FT at say 580K is 812 at 1.4 750 @1.3
LW 784

Change is not always good.
Change for the sake of change does not seem to work out often.

JK. I 50% relate to this. I know everyone wants them to keep their signature sound. But, and it's really me saying this, I wouldn't mind a Fingertip 180 tbh.

I still want them to keep their signature sound actually but I wouldn't mind if the title track is different. IZ*ONE's Suki to Iwasetai is definitely something I could see GFriend doing. I love that song so much.

Wow you do? Unexpected. It's by the same people who made the songs you called "bland" xD

Lmfao it was definitely a gem among them. I tried listening to AKB songs and majority of them really weren't it for me lol.

In all fairness, Suki To Iwasetai is more of 46G type song than a 48G type song ^^

Oof I might check out 46 groups songs lol.

Yess you should ^^
They're very GFriend-esque, especially Keyakizaka46
Try listening to Fukyouwaon, Kuroi Hitsuji, Futair Saison and Glass Wo Ware :)

It does not hurt that every paring except 1-2 had a lead or better vocal.

I've been wanting a title track that sounds like Hear the wind sing. After listening to Flower, i realized that songs like that are just good as b-sides.

I really have no idea what are they going to pull next to stay relevant. But for now, i would like to see songs like Vacation and It's you as title tracks.

I still love sunrise. Best comeback for me. I'll never forget the days i waited for every teasers and photoshoots

I'd personally kill for another Fingertip. There was a good balance between cuteness and girl crush and it really fit them, although all of their concepts have been great so far. I've loved every single release after that, but none have quite reached the memorableness (is that a word) that Fingertip had.
