    Loud is going to be straight 🔥🔥 my god!!

    Different Girl stopped exactly when I was dying to hear that next bit 😫

    I still can’t get an idea of what Heavy Serenade is going to be like.

    IDESERVEIT has a killer beat going.

    Crescendo and Superior are already both Incredible.

    I’m dying for Monday to get here!!! Only 4 Days away!!

    Small Edit: Different Girl is driving me crazy. I want to hear that next bit… I think it’s Kyujin about to pop off!

    I hope ideserveit turns out to be more interesting than that snippet.

    Heavy Serenade sounds like it’s about to start getting brighter 2 milliseconds after the snippet cuts out… I gotta here it please god let me hear it rn

    Heavy Serenade’s a cappella highlight melody and original highlight melody both give me almost no clue what the actual song will sound like. I also can’t even tell which parts of the full track the snippets from each highlight medley are supposed to be from. It feels very similar to the whole Blue Valentine highlight melody situation last time.

    Wow, Heavy Serenade sounded way different than what I had in my head. My headcanon was something way softer. Anyways, the snippet has to be a pre- or post-chorus. Very reminiscent of early in-your-face NMIXX. So excited for how it fits with the a cappella snippet.

    IDESERVEIT and Different Girl are my early standouts. Loud (probably an all-English song [E: nvm, there’s definitely some Korean in the album trailer]) is the poppiest I’ve heard NMIXX sound. It probably gets an MV, and hopefully some additional promo.

    I am not yet sold on Superior. The instrumental doesn’t do anything for me, unfortunately. It probably hits hard in a concert setting with a live band though.

  6. I’m still looking forward to LOUD the most. Especially with the new stuff from this highlight.

    Heavy Serenade and IDeserveIt sound very different to the A cappella but I’m not complaining, they sound good.

    Heavy Seranade sounds so huge, Sullyoon part was giving red velvet vibes, and it sounds like we’re hearing the change up section of Different Girl(the vocals are so raw?). I don’t know how LOUD isn’t going to be the best song on the album. Like there’s just NO WAY it’s not

    Visuals so good, I could barely focus on the songs 😵‍💫

    This time I think Superior is my favorite from the Bsides, but I’ll be surprised if any song will surpass Crescendo for me

    IDESERVEIT has me confused, sounds very different than the A Cappella ver 😭

  9. Hefty_Personality_11 on

    I LOOOVEEE every snippets of Loud. It’s just a gorgeous song!!!

    Seriously need a microphone and speaker just so I could scream it out

  10. I just know Loud is gonna be THE song for me, I love everything we have gotten😭

    LOUD and Different Girl are both gendered? Damn. Well, the genderless first person wasn’t going to last forever. The songs sound great though so I’m not complaining!

    IDESERVEIT is the only song I’m iffy on from the snippets, the rest sound like 10/10s from the snippets we get.

  12. If my list coming from the a cappella medley was this:

    * LOUD
    * Crescendo
    * Superior
    * IDESERVEIT
    * Heavy Serenade
    * Different Girl

    Then I think my list based on this highlight medley would be:

    * Crescendo
    * Superior
    * LOUD
    * Heavy Serenade
    * Different Girl
    * IDESERVEIT

    I know they’re holding back on ‘Heavy Serenade’ but it does mean that it really hasn’t gripped me yet. I think the ‘LOUD’ snippet from the a cappella was a bit more interesting but the one used here still sounds really nice too! I didn’t really like the I-D-E-S-etc of ‘IDESERVEIT’ but it might play better with the full song. Even though ‘Different Girl’ was ranked last on my a cappella list I did like that version more than the one we heard here, the backing vocals in the a cappella just added a bit of texture I feel is needed.

    Overall I’m really excited for ‘Crescendo’, ‘Superior’ (we’ve heard both and I love them), and ‘LOUD’ which seems like it’ll be amazing. I’m really interested in hearing what they’re holding back from ‘Heavy Serenade’. I don’t really know how to feel about ‘Different Girl’ and ‘IDESERVEIT’, I liked the a cappella’s but I don’t really like the snippets we heard now but it’s not long until we can hear the full songs and I’ll reserve my full judgement ’til then!

    Could not concentrate initially from the visuals 😵‍💫😵‍💫

    Loving the lyrics to LOUD! 🔊🏳️‍🌈

    Different Girl is gonna hiiiit, cutting before a Bae rap is criminal

    IDESERVEIT sounds so cool, not what I expected from the acapella version

    Heavy Serenade remains a mystery but the change up sounds incredible

  14. Those ‘LOUD’ lyrics oh my goodness, Lily the woman you are.

    I’m so intrigued by Heavy Serenade, they’re definitely holding back big snippets. With Different Girl, I think they played the start of the song, and for now it’s giving something a little softer, like Passionfruit maybe. But the section they cut off was really interesting.

    IDESERVEIT is definitely growing on me a little. I wasn’t really interested in it in the acappella medley, but the same went for PODIUM and that ended up being my favourite song off the album. The instrumental for it sounds really good, so I’m getting excited to hear it.

    I hope hope hope the Superior instrumental hits hard. I love the melody and how epic it sounds, it just has to be supported by that instrumental. I hope it sounds very dramatic and grand. the studio version is definitely going to be different to the live version.

  15. The way we’ve heard two different parts of Heavy Serenade and have zero clue what the song is going to actually sound like is maddeningly masterful editing.

    I’m watching this just after waking up and IDESERVEIT had me somehow dancing while still in bed 😂

    I will never stop appreciating how experimental NMIXX is.
