The Immortal Songs tv show performances are a whole nother kettle of fish than the Immortal Songs Medley they performed in concert. MMM appeared on Immortal Songs 14 times between 2015-19 and Solar competed afterwards as a soloist. The tv network blocks Immortal Songs reactions unless you filter the original video so watch them on your own time if you don't want to go through the hassle. Imo you don't know Mamamoo until you've seen them on Immortal Songs - they're some of the most spectacular vocal performances you'll ever see by a kpop girl group. My favorites are Delilah (a Korean version of the Tom Jones hit from the 60's) and the beautiful ballad Backwoods but you might want to start with their debut performance on the show, Wait a Minute. Hard to believe they were raw rookies at that time. Paint Me is the theme song of their four album series 4 Season 4 Color. The song and the deceptively simple MV introduce the main concepts and cyclical symbolism used throughout the 4S4C project. Paint Me is one of MMM's main vocal masterpieces in a recording studio along with I Miss You and Where Are We Now (the song you said you loved and asked for the title). The clip with Moonbyul rapping on Paint Me is from an alternate "orchestral" arrangement they performed to start their 4+ hour long 4 Seasons F/W concerts in 2019, a year and a half after Paint Me was first released. Moonbyul sang rather than rapped on the original recording and she added that rap verse for the concert version. They later recorded the orchestral arrangement of Paint Me on their 2 cd career retrospective album I Say Mamamoo: The Best in 2021. Btw, there are other layers to the 4 Season 4 Color project besides matching the music to a season and a color. Each title track explored a stage of love in a four part relationship cycle corresponding to the seasons and there are hints of an ongoing series of life cycles via reincarnation and various other ideas from Asian philosophy such as yin & yang and Taoist 5 element color theory. Each album also included a self-composed solo song by the member assigned to that season's color. Yes, Maria is the name Hwasa took when she was baptized as a Catholic. In the song she opens up about all the hate she has received. The bookend song on the Maria album is called LMM (Lost My Mind), which is a very different take on the same subject stylistically and emotionally with an MV that is just as gorgeous as the song (the clips with the arrows are from the LMM MV). Imo Maria and LMM were the two most important and socially impactful kpop songs of 2020 besides being musical masterpieces. The Wheein song you asked about is called Goodbye. Watch the MV carefully or you'll get K Willed lol. 💖

I’ve been trying to figure out how to do more Immortal Songs reactions. I just finished filming some and tweaking the edits. It’s been a pain. Thank you for elaborating on the Four Seasons. That makes for an even more interesting story. Other groups might do it too, but the ones who have similar thought provoking themes are (G)I-dle and Dreamcatcher. For them to have such foresight for years to come is so amazing!!! When I saw Hwasa perform Maria at one of the awards shows, there were no subtitles and I was stuck on the vocals and the choreo. I’m thinking now that the slower parts of the song were her struggles in the industry and built up to that familiar confidence.

@@_KpopAjumma_ YW. Good luck with Immortal Songs. The 4 Seasons albums were released within a one year timespan, one mini-album per season starting in the spring of 2018. This excellent video essay about MMM doesn't really address the question posed by the clickbait title but one piece of evidence is the 4 Seasons project. 4S4C is the most complex project ever done by a girl group and it represents a landmark artistic achievement in kpop history yet in 2018 & '19 Mamamoo was overlooked for Artist of the Year and Best Female Group awards. Imo Mamamoo isn't underrated (almost everyone agrees they're the top female vocal group), they're taken for granted. I don't think Maria is structured the way you're thinking, which sounds like a journey from a difficult place to a brighter one. I think of Maria and LMM as conversations with herself in the midst of her struggle to be at peace with herself and the world around her. Rather than a story with a happy or at least a better ending Maria is more in the nature of a report from the front in an ongoing existential battle.

@@kudgeond755 Still having issues with Immortal songs, but I've gone this far and try as I might, I'm going to get the reaction viewable!🤣. OMG! I did it! My test upload is not blocked!!! It only took me 15 edits/uploads to get it right! It's amazing how a 20 minute recording takes two plus days to edit! lol. If you're a fan of Red Velvet, I will have their IS2 performances up on Friday. If you're not a fan, I know you're a fan of me, so I implore you to watch at least 30 seconds of the video, so I can get credit Now, I really need to look into Maria a little closer. Did she write the song?

@@_KpopAjumma_ Congrats on getting the Immortal Songs vid past the ghouls! I like RV but I like you more. I'll give it a gander cuz you asked but probably won't stick around for the whole video. Yes, Hwasa co-wrote and co-composed Maria and LMM with her main creative partner at RBW, songwriter/producer Park Woosang. He was involved with many MMM songs until he left RBW and he's still tight with Hwasa and Wheein.

@@kudgeond755 30-31 seconds is all I ask. 🙏 And as a heads-up, I'm most emotive with the first two songs and the reaction doesn't really start until 2 + minutes into the video. I usually don't like spending that much time with the intro, but I included some behind the scenes of my YT account that shows proof of blocked reactions and monetization.... rather lack of monetization. lol

The MAMAMOO members are among some of the most-credited idols in K-Pop as of early 2023 - Moonbyul actually has the most songwriting credits of all 3rd generation female idols at 115(2nd most credited famale artist overall... Yoon Mirae at 139), since she writes her own raps(and more) in almost all of the group’s songs. As well as contributing to the songwriting in many of them as well. - Solar has 37 credits to her name. She wrote the lyrics and composition for her solo song, “Spit it Out”. Composer on "Honey". - Hwasa has 44 credits. The lyrics to her solo song, “María”, were praised for its inventive and meaningful wordplay. ("Somebody" w/Loco). - Wheein has 9 credits (that I can find, maybe more) UPDATE Aug 27/23 - Moonbyul 117 + - Solar 41 + - Hwasa 46 + - Wheein 10 + I'm aware it's now more.... if anyone has a more recient Update, I'd appreciate it.

Welcome to the nation of Moomoo. I hope you enjoy the hospitality of our Queens, The mighty Mamamoo. 🤘😁 How they are not globally recognized is pure criminal. The song where Hwasa gets hit with the arrow is called LMM or losing my mind. It's a masterpiece. My personal favourite from her is Be Calm. I won't elaborate much, you need to listen and watch it.

There should be more about them... But that is changing. MAMAMOO(in 2023) joined the ranks of Destiny's Child, The Spice Girls, and TLC as the ONLY girl groups to sell over 70,000 tickets on their FIRST tour in the USA. This makes MAMAMOO the ONLY girl group to achieve this milestone AFTER a 21-year gap. AND the ONLY Non-English speaking girl group to accomplish such a feat.

70k in the US in first tour is damn impressive and also risky, but it paid off. Risky to book a large venue… not risky that they got 70k. Does anyone know where they held that large concert? I’m think California or NY.

​@@marion0217To date there has not been any official announcements about anything. But from what has been reported, group activities are on pause while they each are pursuing individual projects. They have not disbanded. They have no desire to disband. I think there was even a reference to the path Sistar took. All possible future group activities are wide open. And as they said during the MyCon tour, "Mamamoo has so much more to do" 🫶
