@Cory update, it's back up!!!
"you can't just go back-"
*nodding furiously* "i think they can"
4:48
Exactly my reaction the first time I heard this
"she's so pretty" is everyones first reaction to IU really. 🥰
She is pretty, but these guys are pretty professional, I believe they meant the vocals.
He said That's not about her face but her falsetto, but IU really pretty exactly
5:56 "It's well produced"
Producer IU herself must be proud.
Agree
뭐하니요즘 Yes i think she is this album producer, but not this song😂
@@user-space77 But she is the Lyricist
@@candyuaena but lyrics are not the same as song producing
Everybody freaking out because of the dance break was priceless but Umu should've (or maybe she did) explained that the dance break was a tribute to the dance break of the part 1 which was 'You and I'.
The dance part is actually referring back to the dance break in You & I
You & I? Which part?
@@rafardhanfauzi after the second chorus before the bridge
I think Umu should've explained that to them 🤔
And i always cry:"
Hawaii yeah, I feel sad that they didn’t explain that part since it just didn’t make sense without the context and they just felt like it was weird :(
5:18
"Where does that come from though how do you have the idea to throw in that jig"
"Cause it's k-pop and they can"
K-pop breaks down the conventions of music. Music has no rules.
As someone who listened to electronic music for hours on end every day for about 10 years, the similarities in the approach to music has tons of parallels and I love it!
@@jordansarkisian YES! I don't know much about music, but K-Pop did draw me in partly because I recognised something from when I mainly listened to EDM. I feel like there's less of that experimentation and variation in new mainstream electronic music though. For example, Zedd's album True Colors had a lot of it, but his newer releases are more straightforward imo. I haven't kept up with the EDM community that much though.
Its unbelivable how she manages to make even better music everytime
One of the best tracks on this album
It really grows on you. First time I listened to it I was unimpressed especially since I liked You and I so much but now I really appreciate it.
I mean, so many amazing tracks for a 6-song EP. Above the Time, Blueming, Love Poem, Unlucky are all A- or S-tier songs in my opinion, and both The Visitor and Lullaby have their places too.
Above the time and love poem are my top two for this album
@@aperson2730 I cried when I first heard it. Especially that her song 'You and I' really stucked to me all these years. You will know in the heart as you watch the 'Above the time' MV how it is connected to the other song and you just like, instantly cry and be overwhelmed? Or is it just me? 😅 I really liked the story in the song 'You and I' it really made a meaningful story for me. And IU just decided to add its part 2? Bruh I can't ಥ⌣ಥ
@@jezempress2118 I agree. IU transcends Kpop. 🙂
The modulation that Nick was talking about at 9:40 in the video actually brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it and I feel emotional about this song every time I hear it now. Its a great song.
every time that modulation hits I just break
Im not nearly knowledgable enough to say, but im pretty sure it sound like a callback to the sound of You and I, especially considering the lyrics.... it tugs on my heartstrings a little extra bc several IU songs referencing calling out someone’s name as a way of almost saying “I will remember you. I will wait for you and I will fight for you, no matter how long”
Yess, me too.. i don't know why but i'm crying when i heard that part too
“This is so kimi no nawa” yaaaaaaaaa
I went back and rewatched that twice to make sure I heard it right. *excited weeb noises*
I cried listening to this live on her concert. It has this nostalgic feeling especially if you've been listening to her since the You & I days because of the storyline of the MV. One of her best and I love ALL of her songs.
I never knew why but both You&I and above the time made me tear up every time I listened and now I'm finding out they're connected through videos like this. That's awesome.
I told myself to not cry but its IU and i failed.
i purposely don't check the reaction list bc im always rlly surprised by the next reaction lol it's always smth i don't expect
Before I start the video, I got into IU right before Love Poem came out, and Blueming was my 2019 soty. I loved Above the Time, both musically and how it fit into the You and I universe. So many of IU's songs are beautifully emotional, and even when I just think of the storyline of You and I, Above the Time and Blueming I get a tear in my eye - the potential of the characters is palpable and the unknown of if that potential is lost or not can be heartwrenching. IU is an amazing musician and artist, and I'm especially excited to see the CMR reactors' reactions to the bridge.
Boy was I not disappointed by the reactions. I loved that the CMR reactors could put into words and music theory my feelings toward this song. I can say that I love it and what parts I like but the reactors explaining the musicality of what I like and *why* I like it will never get old to me.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHOWING EVERYONE SHOCK REACTION WHEN THAT RANDOM INTERLUDE COME THRU. as indeed the best above the time reaction ever💛
중간에 리듬 바뀌는 부분은 전세계 모든 사람이 "읭?" 할듯 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 암튼 리액션이 찰지네요 ㅎ
저도 첨엔 응? 했는데ㅋㅋㅋㅋ리듬 바뀌는 부분 이 노래 가사랑 너랑나랑 연결되는 점 그리고 아이유가 한 인터뷰 알면 더 이해 잘되는 부분이라 진짜 제 최애 파트인데 언어가 달라서 완벽하게 이해하지 못하신게 아쉬워요ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
무슨 아이리쉬 민요 보는 거 같아서 되게 좋았음
“You can’t just go back without-“
“I think- I think they can.”
Oh wow I was just going through their previous IU reacts when I saw this video and didn't recognize it and realized it was posted 11 minutes ago. I've been blessed
The first time I saw this MV and heard this song, I cried. The beauty of it just overwhelmed me. And I don't even follow IU. I'm just a casual listener of her music.
Same....
I’m so glad you are reacting to this song and you should definitely listen to her other songs in this album. They all are all masterpieces!
“Don’t cry” “Climb the ladder climb the ladder” 😭 so cute
IU's songs are a gift to us mortals' ears
IU的歌有關於這個XX男生的愛情故事
@@user-bh6iw3gk7u 感謝您的評論
IU now is more involve with her songs as a producer, composer and lyricist. she love to experiment in her music and go against the norm. She have the ability to make it work all the time. Sometimes i find it weird but later on i appreciate her more as a musician. She can nail all genre. thanks for the reaction. more please...
Yay! Was really blown away by this song from IU in terms of vocal and instrumental (that dance break was unexpected haha) and was waiting for your reaction! :) Thanks really love your reaction and how u guys dissect the song and her vocal inflections!!
이 노래는 음에 맞춰서 글자라임 맞춘 디테일이 너무 좋은데..한국인만 제대로 느끼려나ㅠㅜㅠ
포로리야 그쵸 이 곡의 묘미는 작사에 있죠 한국인만 알 수 있는 ㅜㅜ
한국인 아니지만 그 디테일이 진짜 신기해요 ❤️
U guys should react to iu love poem, the song is soooo meaningful, especially she dedicated the song for her best friend sulli after sulli sad passing.
I know these guys are musical geniuses but at 7:50 Owen just casually pulls it out like he composed it or something.
YESSSS I HAVEN BEEN WAITING FOR THIS
I'm so glad that this reaction happend. I still have hope that one day you would react to the other song from the album. I mean iu is such an artist
IU's 'Secret' and 'I give you my heart' is a great song. I would really appreciate your reaction.
Wahhhh! Secret is my most favourite IU song!
IU always impresses but for me this is one of her best songs! I’m sad it didn’t get the attention it deserves!
Because Love poem and Blueming overpowers
지금은 자막 없어서 한번만 보는데
진짜 자막 생기기만 해봐 세번 더 볼거임 ㅡㅡ
꺄아 저두용
한글자막 올라오면 언급한번만 해주세요 ㅜㅜ
저두요..
와드.....
ㅇㄷ
dude listened to the song for the first time and freaking played it perfectly on the piano like wow, what am i even doing in this world
The Irish jig threw me off hard when I heard this in November. It's now March. It still does 😂
해외반응 중에서 내가 제일 좋아하는 사람들이고 채널임..... 개시끄럽게 와우!!! 와!!!! 이러는 것도 좋지만 저렇게 음악적 지식 알려주면서 놀라는 게 더 귀엽고... 내가 모르는 부분 알려줘서 너무 조아
ㅇㅈㅇㅈ
AHHHH!!! Thank you so much for reacting to my fave song from IU's new album. 😍😍😍
I'm a big fan of IU, and I really love that you make this reactions! I'm happy that so many people know her bcause of this video! Thank you so much for making this reaction!
I reacted the same way too! Like what was that in the middle (lol i honestly wasnt a fan of this song at the beginning) but the live stage totally changed my mind. When I went to watch the concert live I understand why they did that. It's even more beautiful to watch her live seeing them dance on stage with the dramatic stage props and all. Please look it up and watch this live stage in her Seoul concert. It's really amazing!
한국어 번역해주신 분 너무 감사합니다ㅠ보고 싶어도 제대로 못 봤었는데 덕분에 봅니다ㅠㅠ
It’s a song when the more you dig into it the more you get out of it, love it, and of course IU’s vocal is like, oh 😍 i love her.
Finally!!!😭😭 Thank you so much! I love you guys!💕💕
“you can’t just go back”
“I think they can”
😂😂😂😂
thank you! this was my song of the year last year, i love it so much.
I love all IU songs but this one it actually made me cry and i don't know why😭
So excited when I found out that you guys react to this song! One of my favorite picks of the album. And I love the way you put more references now (been so long not watching your videos in case this is not a recent addition) especially referencing to which part of the song. Hope to see you guys reacting to any of Jeong Sewoon's songs!
I think I've watched every react of these classical musicians. I love it and i'll never get tired of it.
everyone was so shock about the dance break = me when I first watched this MV
Another IU's MV reaction💜 thank you for the video😭
"we just went full on hobbit" lmaoo
OMG! Finally! Thank you guys! ❤️
This song has it all and it really takes you on a ride. As you listen to the song, especially if you have seen and experienced the music video but not exclusively, you listen to a story get told even though the lyrics does not describe the scenes. So for example the dance break right in the middle is so different from everything that we just know they have finally found themselves again and are in this moment outside of time. They’re happy and together. Whilst in the other parts you get a more quiet, pensive but hopeful melody, which is when the characters are wondering when is it they’re going to meet (the clock is still on the boy’s wrists). I also love that this song is connected to the blueming music video
IU is a true legend. Most of her songs are masterpieces.🔥💜
4:28 THE SUBTITLES SAY KIMBAPI KIDDING- 💀💀I SEE U CARAT
above the time one of the best songs of iu!
tbh i think this is the best track from Love Poem, of course i love the entire ep but yeah. thanks all for reacting to this beautiful music video!!!

Was so exited to see them react to the midsection of the song, when it totally switches styles, and I can't see I was disappointed. Wish you were able to show them the last video in the sequel, Blooming.
I like their reaction so much. They look like enjoying the music
That's why this is my favorite song of IU 💜

"Cuz it's K-Pop"
I like how it explains everything lolll
Blueming was the Part 3 ✌️✌️
You & I --> Above the time --> Blueming 👍
The jig section is sort of not out of nowhere because in the lyrics before that, she sings,
"Wait
If, by change we meet
Outside the edge of time
WIthout stepping on the past
We'll dance breathlessly"
stan IU
Yasss
More of IU's song please 😍
You guys have to watch the live performance of 'Above the time'😁
