SHINee's Back.

This will be a little personal overview of SHINee's songs from their latest album, Sherlock. Last night, I tried to stay up for the countdown but my mom had other plans in mind and let's just say things weren't pleasant after my little tantrum.

Warning: Incoherent post.

1. Sherlock - I love the opening where Minho whispers "SHINee's Back". It gave me shivers and I couldn't help giggling like the stupid little fangirl that I am. I've heard that this is a hybrid of "Clue" and "Note" and it's a little bit too um, electro(?) for my liking but I love the fast beat and the catchy tempo. What I don't get is the breaking glass in between lines and the "I'M SO CURIOUS~ YEAAAAAAH!!!". But then again, what is SHINee without derp lyrics, right? I've seen the English subs and they're quite good so I'll let this pass. lmao
2. Clue - It's quite similar to Sherlock since they just mixed in the two songs together. Personally, I like Sherlock better but this one's good too and I can't really say anything about this except that the breaking glass is a little bit unnecessary. Jonghyun's high notes are total ear-candy though, and that's saying a lot since I usually find Jonghyun's falsetto voice irritating. I love his normal singing voice more, even though it's a bit generic (or maybe I'm just saying this because I'm blinded by my love for Onew's melt-your-ears voice).
3. Note - I won't lie or sugarcoat anything because to be honest, the first three tracks sound so much alike. I can't tell which one I like better because all three of them sound so damn similar yet so damn good. 
4. Alarm Clock - LOVE LOVE LOVE THE BEAT, THE RHYTHM, THE FLOW OF THE SONG, EVERYTHING. The chorus is catchy as fuck and it just screams SHINee during the first year of their debut and since SHINee World is my absolute favorite album and I loved all the songs there and this song fits into that album so much and it just gives me a burst of nostalgia and I can't even even transcend how much I love this song into words at the moment and I know nobody can clearly understand what I'm trying to say. This is the SHINee that I fell in love with: the smooth voices, the simple tune, the natural flow. Ugh, I wish they'd produce more songs like this.
5. The Reason - Onew opens the song and seriously, I wanted to cry hearing his voice. It's just so soft and gentle and can I pat it? Everyone's voices sound gorgeous in this song to be honest. But then again, I'm being biased and I'm going to say that Onew sounds the best. This type of song fits his voice perfectly. And again, this song screams SHINee.
6. Stranger - Korean version of their Japanese song. To be honest, I haven't listened to the Japanese version so I'm in no position to say if it's better than the original. Can I just say that even though I like the chorus, I can't say the same for the entire song? I don't know and I can't place my finger around it, but there's something I don't quite like about the song. Maybe because the track doesn't give justice to SHINee? It doesn't sound like them at all. Although the more I listen to it, the more I like it.
7. Honesty - FAVORITE SONG FROM THE ALBUM. HOLY MACKEREL IT'S SO GOOD OMG EVERY LIVING PERSON ON THE PLANET PLEASE LISTEN TO THIS FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THE SHAWOLS IN THIS WORLD I AM READY TO BURST AT THE SEAMS OF MY FRAGILE FANGIRL HEART SHINee, WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS TO ME? OMG GO AWAY, ONEW, YOUR VOICE COULD MELT ALL THE TIGERS IN THE WORLD TO BUTTER. I COULD LISTEN TO THIS ALL DAY LONG. SHINee + ACOUSTIC = LOVE. OMG DOES ANYONE KNOW THE CHORDS TO THE SONG??? AND OMG JONGHYUN WROTE IT FOR ALL THE SHAWOLS:

SHINee - Honesty (a message written by Jonghyun to all Shawols)

OMG ALL THE MONTHS OF WAITING AND YEARNING WAS MORE THAN WORTH IT. I JUST WANT TO RUN THE STREETS AND SCREAM AND PROFESS MY LOVE FOR THEM TO THE WHOLE WORLD!!!
