Shinee - Love Like Oxygen
on October 30th, 2008 by Dj Oranji
SHINee’s digital single in order to promote their new album The SHINee World, entitled 산소 같은 너 (Love Like Oyxgen), was released on 08.22.08.
산소 같은 너 (Love Like Oxygen) is a pop dance song that really captures the listener from start to finish. The song begins a sleek dance instrumental and soon Jognhyun comes in and delivers some very memorable vocals as they show off power. Following is Onew, who provides some smoother and more enticing vocals. Key follows with some more nice vocals that keep the atmosphere of Onew’s vocals before Taemin and Minho deliver the hook. Their vocals go perfectly with each other’s and makes a smooth transition into the chorus. The chorus is a real standout part of the song because the boys hit the higher notes smoothly and it keeps the listener wanting more. Later in the song, Jonghyun gives some great vocals that sound great and definitely fits with the music. Closing the song is a rap sequence delivered by Minho and Key which catches the listener’s ear and then they sing the title of the song repeatedly. This song is absolutely addictive and a great choice to be put out as a digital single.

SHINee are the newest boy band from SM Entertainment and, despite the fact that they’ve only been active for a few weeks, are already causing a storm amongst Korean music fans. So it’s time to take a look at the group’s first release (the mini-album Nunan neomu yeppeo (Replay)) and see what all the fuss is about.
Nunan neomu yeppeo (Replay) opens the album with a smooth R’n'B-esque melody before the vocals kick in. The members’ voices are incredibly smooth and mature-sounding, making it easy to see why they have drawn comparisons to their contemporaries DBSK. The song continues on a mid-tempo level but somehow doesn’t become boring. The whole song makes it difficult to believe that they are so young (the eldest being just 18) when they sound like a boy band that have been in training for many years and have a lot more experience.
