It’s been a few yr since I final wrote about woman group VVUP, although I understand I blended them up with the newly debuted VVS in my thoughts, assuming they had been one and the identical. That’s what your insistent acronyms do to us, Okay-pop! That’s additionally what forgettable music does, as I can’t keep in mind a single previous VVUP monitor regardless of lined every intimately. So, I suppose we are able to think about Giddy Boy a recent begin of kinds.
The overwhelming majority of Giddy Boy merely reheats present woman group tropes which have been run into the bottom, nevertheless it has just a few vivid factors. Verse two is underlined by an upbeat electro groove that ought to have turn into the monitor’s most important calling card. Then, in the course of the pre-choruses we’re greeted by a ceremonial synth loop that jogs my memory of 2 Limitless’s tacky 90’s dance anthems. Aspect word: wouldn’t or not it’s superior if a Okay-pop group lined 2 Limitless??
Sadly, these participating components drown in a sea of repetitive “Come giddy, giddy, giddy, giddy, giddy boy.” (At one level, the group additionally proclaims “I’m the queen of this metropolis, name me Litty,” which can turn into my new calling card). This refrain isn’t really as annoying because it sounds on paper, however nonetheless spoils a lot of the goodwill different segments of Giddy Boy construct. I want the track would simply choose one sonic component and excel at it. As a substitute, it’s in fixed flux — and moderately than add curiosity this merely makes it really feel as if the rug is regularly being pulled underfoot.
