*I AM NOT A BLACKJACK*

So please don’t come at me with ridiculousness, ok? I just love music. Or I don’t. Don’t like what I have to say, then please don’t read this or watch my vids. Alright now that that’s out the way…

HOLY CRAP!!!

This is freaking amazing! Overall the album is amazing and I am going to talk about it in detail in a second but can I freaking fangirl over the song Baby I Miss You? Sweet Baby Jesus!

I cannot get enough of this song. Seriously. I just love it. The chords. The lyrics. It’s everything!

I can imagine The Band Six playing the shit out of this song! I had to help them realize how excited I was about this.

I hope @thebandsix has a Fender Rhodes to use when they play “Baby I Miss You”. That would be perfection time infinity. #2NE1CRUSH

I just cannot stop listening to this song. I mean I want to do the whole album justice but really I can’t leave this song. I sound crazy…or maybe this is what the beginnings of a Blackjack sound like?

Alright down to business.

Track List

1.	“Crush”	CL	CL, Choice 37
2.	“Come Back Home“	Teddy	Teddy, PK, Dee.P
3.	“Gotta Be You” (너 아님 안돼)	Teddy, PK	Teddy, MASTA WU
4.	“If I Were You” (살아 봤으면 해)	CL	CL, Dee.P
5.	“Good to You” (착한 여자)	Teddy, G-Dragon	Teddy, Choice 37
6.	“MTBD” (멘붕 (CL solo))	Teddy, CL	Teddy
7.	“Happy”	Teddy	Teddy
8.	“Scream” (Korean version)	CL	Teddy, Dee.P
9.	“Baby I Miss You”	CL	CL, Choice 37, Peejay
10.	“Come Back Home” (Unplugged version)	Teddy	Teddy, PK, D

We already know what my favorite song is on the album. The second fav is MTBD, CL’s solo. The beat is tight, especially when that bass drops. Definitely going on my workout playlist.

Seriously how can you not get amped off that song?The songs that are bolded are supposedly the ones that are going to be the singles. I swear I hope they add my favorite on the m/v making list because….ugh. I’m trying to stay focused.

Crush is alright. I haven’t listened to 2NE1 enough to know if this the normal type of song for them but…eh. Its alright.

Come Back Home is better for me. Especially the unplugged version. I really hope that Justin Lyons has a special stage with that one because his guitar skills well, slay lol!

Gotta Be You again is just alright for me.

If I Were You is something I’d listen to. I like this style from them. Slower, laid back.

Good To You is good. I mean really. I want more of whoever is playing the piano. The lyrics are strong but the piano sealed it for me. I’m a sucker for great musicians.

Happy & Scream are okay but I think at the moment I am so obsessed with Baby I Miss You that I will have to go back and listen to them again when I get over this.

So tell me, are you as excited about this album as everyone else? What is your favorite song on the album? Already saving up your pennies to see them in concert? Let me know on twitter or in the comments. You know I’m saving for KCon but I might have to set up another jar to get on this 2NE1 train.

*updated*

Here is my reaction for 2NE1’s Come Back Home m/v.
