... and my favourite song of 2025: "Ceremony" by #StrayKids

This time it's the MAMA stage version, which blew my socks off. (Even though Lee Know injured himself earlier in their MAMA performance.)

Actually skz have a lot of one-word song titles. I will do my best to restrain myself from posting too many of them. 😅

Here's the #MAMA2025 performance of "We Go Up" which I think is pretty cool.

My first offering for KPopMonday #StopAndGo has to be "We Go Up" by Babymonster. I was not initially crazy about the song or MV - it feels kind of plodding and try hard. They performed it at the recent #MAMA2025 awards and I was able to appreciate it in a different light. The thunderous beat and epic staging really made sense in that kind of venue (I'll link in a comment).

Apart from his own costumes, the #GDragon performance stages all seem to be identical to the tour performances I saw in Melbourne earlier this year.

Oh wait Beatcapella is doing a bit with him in the middle of Heartbreaker, I *think* that's new.

#mama2025

ooh skz are doing Creed and Ceremony as well as Divine, okay okay.

#mama2025

why does G-Dragon have a cat on his head

#MAMA2025

#Yeonjun could just whip out his dick and start jerking it on stage, and there'd be no significant difference to the level of (gorgeous) filth occurring here.

#MAMA2025

I was keen to see the debut performance of #AlphaDriveOne

Realised as soon as they started appearing on stage that I'd already forgotten all of them except for my boy #Xinlong.

Partway through, I remembered Anxin and Leo, and I'd like to see them do well.

But Xinlong's the only one who continues to capture my attention.
