The song ‘TRICK’ is made up of all Tohoshinki’s singles where all the members take turns being the group’s lead vocalist.
T - Two Hearts with Changmin as the lead
R - Runaway with Yoochun as the lead
I - If… with Junsu as the lead
C - Close To You with Yunho as the lead
K - Keyword with Jaejoong as the lead.
(^ACRONYM)
Each were released weeks apart in Japan.
…………….WAT IS THIS. I NEVER EVEN KNEW. OMG.
That is so freaking brilliant.
Time to go listen to all those 6 songs now
EDIT: I just listened to them all. AND HOOOOOLY CRAAPPP IT’S SO AWESOME
Keyword, despite being a ballad, is perfectly transitioned into TRICK, which has a more intense and upbeat feel to it. Same goes for Two Hearts, which is rather R&B style; it becomes the climax of TRICK. Junsu’s ‘If…’ is already upbeat, but becomes even more intense in TRICK. And, needless to say, Yunho’s rap in Close To You fit perfectly in TRICK. Finally, what is TRICK’s best part in my opinion (chorus), is inspired from Yoochun’s song, Runaway.
And here I was, thinking that SME’s idea of putting Clue+Note = Sherlock for SHINee’s album was brilliant. Please, this is pure and utter GOLD. These 5 songs are actually extremely legit and quality songs, and unlike Clue/Note, they don’t sound like they’ve been extracted from the main/mashup song.
I mean, I already found TRICK was a really good song.. But to learn that it’s actually a mashup? WOW.
They never announced it either. They left it for us to figure out.
