Mirotic - TVXQ (Album)

I highly recommend this album. This is TVXQ's newest & 4th Korean album. The album title is a self made word by member Hero Jaejoong. He meant to use "miro" (it means maze in Korean) and the english suffix "-tic" to make the word "mirotic".
Their 1st single of this album uses the same name as their album. "Mirotic" means that you can't get off their spell once they cast it on you...(it did had an effect on me!! I mean, when i started listening to this song, i'm hypnotized & couldn't take my ears off this song...)

Well, the song "Wrong Number" which is going to be their 2nd single of the album, features Hero Jaejoong rap in their song for the 1st time. Great song!! I definitely love JJ's rap~ He even wrote the rap part himself.

My favourite songs in this album are "Mirotic", "Wrong Number", "Crazy Love", "You're My Melody", "Flower Lady" & "Forgotten Season"...long list, right? What can I say? I love ALL of their songs.

Yup, the Version C of the album. It's expected to release on 12 November in Korea & 14 November in Yesasia. This album comes with 4 new bonus tracks which include 2 songs composed by the members Hero Jaejoong & Micky Yoochun. Composition & lyrics of new track "Don't Cry My Love" is made by Hero Jaejoong while "Love Bye Love" is made by Micky Yoochun. (Good thing I didn't buy the album yet. I was planning to buy the version B of the album & this version came out..which should i buy??? I desperately want JJ's solo composition!! Good thing they put it out now, i mean, YC composed 50++ songs while JJ 30++ already!! Or maybe I should wait till the version D & E of the album...) The song "Wish" is a collaboration of TVXQ's Max Changmin & Xiah Junsu and Super Junior's Ryeowook & Kyuhyun while "Don't Say Goodbye" is a sentimental song (obviously). If you buy the special edition of this album (released in December) you will get to hear Ahra's narration in the beginning of "Don't Say Goodbye" & a bonus track of "Wrong Number" in the edited MV version AND autographed messages + Photo Story 2008.
