These Universe releases just keep on coming! Once upon a time, I thought this might be some limited series and I’d be able to fudge my way through a handful of fun carnival game-esque “reviews” and call it a day. Almost two years later and I guess the joke’s on me…
Anyway… we haven’t done a “hangman” yet! It’s my favorite weirdly-murderous kid’s game. Click on the image below to guess letters and solve my single-phrase review. As Wonho would say: Don’t Hesitate!

I survived the game without any wrong letters!
Re: the Universe music series – we’re going on 25 songs since D-D-Dance. We have come a long way, and it’s not about to stop any sooner. They’re keen on making most of the recording artists signed to their contract release something. There’s a rumor that Yena’s about to record/film her contribution single to this thing. (Ren is also part of this app…..if you’re keen on his contribution….)

(seems like WordPress ate my comment?) I won this one too!
Re: the Universe Music thing – this one is like the 25th single since the first one with D-D-Dance. We have come so far, and yet I don’t think it will slow down any time soon. This company is keen on making all of the idols who were signed into this contract release something.
For instance, there’s a rumor that Yena is currently filming/recording her single for this app. We still also have Kep1er, WEME, Lightsum, VIVIZ, Choi Youngjae…..literally goes on.

Wonho for the win once again. OK too be fair, it is more of a well done sketch of a song than a full single, but its the first Universe app release that I can stand.
BTW the song is available on US iTunes. So much for the app exclusivity.

I don’t think any of the songs are really app-exclusive if Nick is always able to find official uploads of the full versions on YouTube

Nick that hangman had most of the alphabet in it, I think. “Don’t hesitate” is definitively my favorite universe track

Yep. Nick, next time, fewer words. One word wordle. Or Quordle.
There was only infrequent letters like JXZQ’s left.

This has become my second-best Universe release, only surpassed by the masterpiece called “Drink It” by The Boyz. So sorry that Wonho decided to release it through that app, would have become a nice b-side for his next mini.

Drink It was a Universe song? Darling daughter plays that one all the time. The creeptastic “my breath on your neck” line gets me every time.
I will second that this is the second-best Uni release.

We shall see what it actually sounds like because right now it sounds like Gloria Gaynor’s “I will survive” in a higher key.

it’s already a pretty popular song to sample, but yeah, we should wait if this sample actually works with the song

This song is pretty decent and deserves more respect than this gimmicky review.

He’s definitely one of my favorite soloists! 😭 His voice is soooo good!! It just makes whatever he sings sooo much more additive!! This is such a simple easily flowing song and his voice is definitely what makes it more memorable!
My fave universal releases so far were Tesseract, Drink It and Kiss of Death which I thought were songs which actually suited the groups well and I think this too is something that suits Wonho well!

I was able to guess it when I hit most of the vowels and felt so proud LOLOL
Definitely a lovely song added to his repertoire and hopefully it is indeed saved for/put on a future release.
