CN Blue…Live?
Why the EFF don’t music stages let CN Blue play live? For the love of…why the hell are these music stages so freaking cheap? Can you not afford amplifiers and extension cords? How hard can it be to set up these instruments?!
For those of you who don’t know/don’t care/don’t whatever, basically what music stages do such as Inkiyago, Music Core, Music Bank etc., do is that they make CN Blue pretend to play their instruments when a backing track is actually being played over. Can we just establish something…pop music does not equate to JUST singing and dancing. What annoys me is that perfectly capable musicians are forced to pose and pretend to play instruments.
I mean, I guess we should be glad that at least Yonghwa and Jonghyung are singing live, but I feel sorry for Minhyuk and Jungshin who aren’t actually contributing anything to the backing track. It’s awkward. I’m pretty sure Jungshin isn’t happy that his only role as being the bassist is basically useless when it comes to live TV. I can also tell that Jonghyun thinks it’s lame. He doesn’t even try to play the right chords when he’s singing of the track.
Also if we’re going to talk about musicianship here, I just want to establish the band as a whole are very good at what they do. Jonghyun has so much talent, it’s scary. He is amazing at guitar, and his voice is gorgeous. Yonghwa’s voice is great, he just needs to stop straining it, but he’s definitely rhythm guitar for a reason, not that there’s anything wrong with that. Jungshin I can’t tell how good he is because most of CN Blue’s songs only require him to play straight notes, but I’m pretty sure he’s capable of doing funk if he tried because his timing is on par. I really want to see his full potential on bass one day. Minhyuk is an excellent drummer, no denying.
Anyway without further ado, If you want to see some clips of CN Blue actually playing live (which is a surprising rarity considering that they’re a band) here they are (I chose their famous singles over the actual songs that I like, but whatever, you can click the other links for yourself):
I’m a Loner
LOVE (The piano guy is a bit of a poser, but don’t worry about him. And whoever did the mic checks and audio failed. The bass and piano are too loud and their voices are too soft.)
And a little surprise for all of you perverts who want to see Minhyuk pantless…
