Big Bang (sans TOP and Daesung) put in an appearance at the 2013 Gaon Awards. They actually walked the red carpet. GASP! In typical Big Bang fashion, they were not to be constricted to the normal suits and ties found at these events. From the all black attire with his seemingly favorite black leather pants, Taeyang debuted his new “scorpion” hair on the red carpet. With fun, fresh, and funky hair and fashion, as well as some crazy poses, it was nice to see him so comfortable. Taeyang was obviously being Taeyang, just having fun and enjoying himself.
Big Bang’s latest release “Blue” is really pleasant. Simple, tuneful, catchy and singable, it’s a pop ditty that is instantly comfortable and easy on the ears. It sounds like the more relaxed answer to 2ne1’s Lonely, and continues with the guitar driven pop-rock vibe that seems to be pervading the halls of YG Building nowadays.
“Blue” will be out on February 22, the first song released out of Big Bang’s highly anticipated EP “Alive.” The concept has something to do with ice, resulting in the pleasant contradiction of TY being frozen and hot at the same time.
