Life Is A Party (from Parallel/Rainbow – 2017)
Previous Thoughts: “Life Is A Party is a fluffy little throwback, driven by retro synths, bass guitar and a repeated drum loop. In some ways, it’s quite restrained, yet offers a take on the GFriend sound that still feels fresh.” (full review)
Updated thoughts: I love the 80’s feel of this. The synth textures and programmed drums are a match made in heaven and fit well with GFriend’s light vocals. The verses are quite laidback but the chorus surges with a power that anchors the track well. Yuju sounds especially assured on this one, adding a weight to the song that elevates it beyond a simple summer trifle. The second verse rap is also fun and a little silly. If I were to describe this in one word, it would be “refreshing.”
