Summary
Just because I love her so much, I felt like I needed to chime in on Amber's recent single release series. Thanks @ SM for giving her artistic freedom it produced masterpieces.
Individual Song Reviews:
1. “Borders” music video
This isn't Amber's most interesting song musically, but the message behind it is super powerful. Letting Amber have artistic freedom on her own tracks allowed emotion to seep through. I remember when I first listened I was so surprised SM let her sing, since they usually keep her on rap (which she's equally good at). I usually listen to this song when I'm feeling down.
2. “On My Own” music video
I get goosebumps every time I listen to this track, it's so soft. Gen Neo's harmonies added great depth to the vocals, making the song more dynamic. Amber's vocals are some of my favorite in kpop. She doesn't try to be a powerhouse or hit numerous runs, she's just Amber.
3. “Need to Feel Needed” music video
How do I even begin with this song, I love it so much. The beat, her vocals, the vibe. I can't help but dance to this song, it's so cool and fun. I love the fact the Amber doesn't have to have someone else feature on her tracks, her rapping and singing tones vary enough to keep it interesting throughout. Not to mention I love the short guitar sample they have buried in there, and then the solo! I literally listen to this every day.
