I'm Here *Cd Only*
I have the Unseen Version of the album, and I actually like the layout, I like that each member has their own little individual photo book, even though some of the pictures are the same, I love the colours and the concept and I won't deny that my favourite photo book is Yeo One's for obvious reasons.
The album itself for me shows how versatile PENTAGON are as a group, each track is different, giving off not only different vibes but also emotions.
I love the melody and vocals for 데이지 (Daisy), I love that the tracks start out slower, but speeds up just after the start, I especially love the chorus. If I wasn't aware of the meaning of the track, I wouldn't have guessed it was about heartbreak, but I love that it's not a ballad even more. I think you can feel their emotions so much more this way.
데이지 (Daisy)
I have to say that Beautiful Goodbye is one of my favourite tracks from this album, the melody is stunning and their vocals and raps just pull you into the song. From start to finish for me this track is perfect. I think it's sometimes difficult to look back on a relationship after it's ended thinking, 'what could I have done differently, could I have stopped it from ending?' But instead focus on the good times and the good memories, I think that in time helps you to move on.
Beautiful Goodbye
I can't help but sway along with 그해 그달 그날 (Nostalgia), I love Wooseok's description of this track; "a song like a picture of memories that you suddenly take out of an old drawer. People live with many memories and memories of each. And I suddenly remember the happy times and miss them." I often come across songs that lift my mood and remind me of happy memories, as well as making me think about them, and I definitely think this is one of those songs too.
그해 그달 그날 (Nostalgia)
You Like is another of my favourite tracks from this album, I love how the track switches up, it's a unique track for this album, which I think is why I like it and why it stands out from the rest.
You Like
I love that with Paradise (별이 빛나는 이 밤 (This Night Where Stars Shine)), PENTAGON brought back old school K-pop vibes, while adding their own twist and sound to it, making it more current and modern.
Paradise (별이 빛나는 이 밤 (This Night Where Stars Shine))
UniStayXPI'd love to share with you Jinho's solo with I'm Here, but I'm unable to find it to share with you, but I definitely recommend buying the album to give it a listen, it's such a stunning track.
While I lean more towards liking LOVE or TAKE more, I think that just shows that PENTAGON are upping the ante, because their albums get better with each release.
