Red Velvet- 'Cosmic' Song & Vocal Analysis

Loving the red velvet!

love me some RV

Yay I'm glad you enjoyed it! When you get the chance, definitely check out the be It's Live video and also the Behind the Scenes recording video. I think you'd really enjoy seeing how they build up their soundscapes and harmonies. ❤️ It's Live performance https://youtu.be/ycZ0sHLLEJA?si=G01hZB3YiNPovMqX BTS Recording https://youtu.be/vQvHqqCZ3Zk?si=2fIz_jkOiK5ougGS

If you were referring to Wendy's accident, that happened right after Psycho on Christmas 2019 so she recovered from that for almost two years, but is totally fine now. They had many comebacks since then, Cosmic being the most recent group comeback :)

They have an AMAZING live performance of this on the channel called "It's Live" where they perform this with a live band, I'm sure you would love that. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ycZ0sHLLEJA Btw I really love seeing your reactions, your passion for music and especially singing is so infectious!

Midsommar isnt just a movie reference, it's a cultural festival celebrated mainly in Sweden/scandinavian countries on the longest day of the year (towards the end of June) since in these regions the sun doesnt set at all at night. What you see in the movie is the dance ritual/tradition of how it's usually celebrated.

Thanks so much for checking out my suggestion. I love Red Velvet for their artistry in making music, not just creating hits for views. Please keep exploring Red Velvet with “Feel My Rhythm,” and the performance video a song that features a famous sample, and they truly do justice to it. https://youtu.be/R9At2ICm4LQ?si=KekGAI3M0-PJ1D2w and https://youtu.be/Bl0s-1c5L0M?si=m1V6p0N3hn9xw2tg

Joy had a big influence in this comeback. She wanted to present the concept of Red Velvet as a "fairy tale for adults." Joy had a lot of ideas and created a PowerPoint presentation to explain and convince the other members and SM staff of the idea, and they all loved it. Midsommar is perfect for this because it's a horror movie where the sun shines all day, meaning there are bright colors, but it's still a horror movie. Honestly, I'd heard about this movie before the music video was released, but I hadn't seen it. Afterward, I decided to watch it. The music video becomes even scarier when you know the plot (especially the shot with the flowers in the eyes). The song's production was created by KENZIE (one of SM's main producers, often called the mother of the SM sound by SM artists) and the Swedish producer duo MOONSHINE, who creates music for K-pop artists (mostly for SM). SM has been organizing an SM songwriting camp since 2012. Moonshine joined around 2016, and since then, KENZIE and MOONSHINE have collaborated on numerous songs. Their first song was also a Red Velvet song called "Peek-a-boo" (it featured a segment on Killing Voice), the three of them also did "Chill Kill," and a song you've heard Key - "Hunter." In the music video, you can hear the producer's tag at the beginning when a person falls from the sky.
