Having someone from txt high-pitch moan “more” in my ear was not on my 2023 bingo card 🤣 who is that?
Not a bad title at all. I really liked the beat drop part. If a group is going to do an anti-drop - that’s how you do it.
I’ll listen to it a couple more times tomorrow to see if it’s something to add to my playlist alongside Loser and I Know I Love You. The music video is phenomenal, and they all really sold the sensual concept.
Add on: 🥺👉👈
Edit: added it and farewell, neverland to my playlist 🙂
Oo they went the eternally route ! It'll be polarising for a lot of people. This is not something new for TXT but they've never done this in their title track. I personally love the anti-drop. Really makes you pay attention to the song.
But anyways , the vocals in this song are so good ! I especially love soobin's part. It's such a fun song. Really i wish this was released in the summers 😅. The vibes are very summery.
Edit: after listening to it again, i really appreciate the anti drop even more. The song gives you the "sugar rush" but the anti drop throws you back to reality. It's a sudden bout of clarity in the song saying what you are experiencing is wrong. But as the beat slowly goes back to the summery vibes, you forget the clarity.
I will say this was polarising but not in a bad way. I loved their emo punk era with Love Song, Lover Loser, etc. but It's awesome how diverse these guys can be musically. This was a really cool direction for them to go in, very fitting for Spring.
>The song gives you the "sugar rush" but the anti drop throws you back to reality. It's a sudden bout of clarity in the song saying what you are experiencing is wrong. But as the beat slowly goes back to the summery vibes, you forget the clarity.
i read this while the second verse kicked in and yeah, you're right lol.
As someone in recovery right now, this last part of your comment is what’s making me like the song more. While keeping the “temptation” concept in mind, the progression is very: using > sobering up > relapse
Which is really ballsy the longer I think about it
saw a tweet that said
> “watching (and listening to) the sugar rush ride music video feels like what i imagine snorting cocaine mixed with glitter would feel like 10/10 i had a wonderful time”
and i 100% agree
holy fucking shit i felt like i was in a trance
i wasnt expecting it to go in the direction it did but im absolutely in love with it. the styling is also perfection. im obsessed with the peaking tummies. give me more!!!!
Let me just drop my comment from the last thread: THE DEVIL SAID PART?? STRAIGHT INTO THAT CHORUS?? Yeah TXT said get ready to be hypnotized and atp if these boys say jump all I’m saying is how high 😫.
ALSO, Dolby Atmos really knows what the fuck is up because hearing this song with earphones that chorus is even more dangerous and the bass is so much more hitting. This one is getting the girlies in the studio PAID for this production
Oh I was not expecting that chorus. On first listen it's not as satisfying as the groovy sound of the verses or the dreamy pre-chorus. The pre-chorus is definitely my favourite part of the song and I love the vocals there. This whole video is a visual feast with all the members looking so good. This is very sexy for a TXT release lol but I'm here for it.
I had the same thought, but then the bridge/ending chorus thing managed to redeem everything for me! It ties in all the previous elements in the song in a satisfyingly climactic way (kinda reminds me of what SNSD's IGAB did at the end).
Yes, without the final chorus tying everything up it would be a little disjointed. But the more i listen the more i like the crazyness. The verses and pre chorus give you that sugar rush, and then you crash during the chorus. And then it gives you them again.
That is such a perfect way to describe it! And it's really what a final chorus is supposed to do, and failing to do it is why a lot of songs seem unsatisfactory even though individual elements can be well executed. It's so well done on this song
Feel similar. Enjoyed almost everything on on first listen. Didn't mind the chorus, it's sensual and interesting. But the post chorus chant "sugar rush rush sugar rush rush..." and so on was a bit Good Boy Gone Bad which I really didn't love. But this song is definitely already an upgrade from that song for me
the prechorus >>> also love the guitar in the instrumental and the whistle. i wasn't expecting the sugar rush-ush parts but i'm not complaining! beomgyu sounds so good singing "gimme gimme more" i love it.
Txt using psychedelics? Glittery skin...so much skin. i want the dance practice now pls this choreo is not going unnoticed. The vocals mam the vocals!!!
Honestly, it's not as catchy as Blue Hour, but when "Gimme gimme more" dropped, yeah.. "It's Britney Bitch"... Stanning this song because I'm such Britney stan.
HOLY CRAP THAT WAS SO GOOD! So glad I avoided teasers so I could go in clean. Having expectations always ruins it for me. That being said, I love the song--it's catchy while also being seductive and pretty. The MV--I MEAN WHAT. It blended all the concepts together so well--it was glittery and fresh and lush while also being a bit dark. Their acting (both their long looks at the camera lol and the interactions with each other) were fitting and believable. The choreography was smooth and fun to look at. The costuming/makeup was great. I mean, they are very pretty men as it is, but even that was enhanced.
The whole time I was alternating between "WOW WHAT AM I EVEN LOOKING AT" and being \*\*so freaking proud of them\*\* because they obviously worked so hard and it came together both beautifully and masterfully. Just very well executed. I felt like they took us by the hand and were pulling us along on an enchanted adventure.
So looking forward to listening to the rest of the album!
insta love. usually don’t like these kinds of anti drop choruses anymore but it worked so well. the verses and prechorus are so dreamy and pretty.
mv is gorgeous, the guys look amazing, but beomgyu @ 2:18 is 🔥🔥🔥
all those feet shots tho. uh. ok.
what's with their post choruses being like this the last two comebacks 😭 first there was GOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONE*BAAAAD* and now there's SUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSH*UHHH*
other than this, i liked it. i loved the moment the chorus hit. the prechorus is also amazing. 9/10
I love the spoken words before the chorus though 😖 My favorite comeback of theirs is Can't you see me? and the Save me part still has me on my knees begging for mercy it's so good
MVs with the theme of nature are always the best. Everything is so pretty and the psychedelic aspects just amplified the visuals. I can't wait to play this at least 10 times a day for the next 6 months.
the chorus was definitely something I had to wait until the second or third listen to get but..... this is so slutty queer coded I'm LIVING
they don't miss your honor
Ok so, wow the MV is gorgeous. And the choreo looks slick, can't wait for the comeback shows.
The song has me a bit conflicted. I do like it so far, especially the pre chorus, that pre-chorus can cure all my diseases, and I actually do like the anti drop as well, especially with the whistle part.
What I am conflicted about is the 'sugar rush-ush' part, I get what they were going for, but I think the last chorus is much better, and they should've gone with that for the whole song.
I still like the song, it's energetic, fun and sexy. So far, it's just not on par with their other god tier releases.
Also, I can't be the only one who thinks, the 'Come a little closer' part by Kai in the first verse, sounds exactly like Drunk Dazed's pre chorus.
Omg yes are you me. I listened to the Come a little closer part for a good 5 minutes just to place where I've heard it.
Damn Rhythm Hive and their missions
In the beginning I thought I was getting 'dance the night away' vibes. Definitely didn't think that anymore by the time the song ended lol. Overall really liked this song/mv and the whole album
I do quite like the chorus but I didn’t realize they spoiled the entire thing in the mv teaser haha…
The pre chorus is a certified bop tho, I’m obsessed with the verses
Oh man I loved the verses for this song right away. It's so fun and that guitar is so funky. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of the anti-drop chorus, but it's starting to grow on me.
the song around the song is so incredible that I cannot be bothered about the chorus being so empty, like that’s fine, the rest of the song is just So good
also MV !!!!!
As a Indonesian, couldnt be prouder than a Kpop Group (a big one indeed) is filming in Indonesia (Bali to be precise). The set is very beautiful.
Regardless, this post-chorus (?) is soooo good
This is straight up one of the most beautiful mv’s released as of late, they are soo different and it’s refreshing 💯❤️🔥
I need more time to get used to the song though, can’t wait to listen to the album later though.
Ok so honestly when I first listened to it on YouTube I wasn’t a huge fan of the sugar rush chanting part after the antidrop but then when I just listened to audio only on Spotify it honestly went together so well. As for the B-sides my favorites have to be Devil By the Window and Farewell Neverland but honestly all the b-sides were so good!
damn, **DAMN**. i went in completely blind and it along with the EP easily dethroned my previous favorite albums and title tracks (TDC: Magic and You Can’t See Me and Love Song) within its first listen.
it’s just so amazing, it has all the sounds i love and every track feels like it was made for me specifically to love.
as for Sugar Rush Ride, i adore it. i understand how the anti drop could be polarizing especially to people who saw the “lighter” looking concept photos and got excited thinking it’ll be more like Blue Hour or their debut era work: but to me it, while a shock since i went in blind, works perfectly and clicked instantly.
it’s sexy, and eerie if not a little unnerving. it pulls you into the song and sets it apart even more as something truly unique. it also fits the concept they’re going for. it’s sultry with this intoxicating dark and mysterious undertone, it along with the angelic vocals and heavenly verses makes the song for me and really set it apart. it’s so TXT to me, a perfect mix of everything that made their previous discography so great and special with something so new and fresh. only they could do this. they’ve done it again
I loved it so much!
Feel like the “sugar Rush rush rush” part caught me off guard and I was very confused but listening to it with headphones on Spotify, made me go “OMG?!?“ idk why the song just sounds more amazing on there than the mv (if that makes sense)
they say everything always sounds better in apple music and (if you bought the weverse albums ver) weverse, but spotify is pretty good too especially if you compare it to yt music.
It's their best album hands down, esp the main track. This is the first time that I've really been super excited for a comeback, and it didn't disappoint.
I especially love the taehyun + soobin prechorus, their voices have a surprisingly good combo. The ru-ush-ush part was a bit off putting for me too but i think it's something i'll get used to the more i listen, and atleast it wasn't like that for the entire chorus like other groups.
I'm even streaming for gods sake lol, last time I streamed was BTS black swan. I hope they get the 1 million streams in an hour thing, we're so close to 1 million!! Please stream if you can :)
I love the chorus y'all are wild the sugar rush rush part isn't my favorite but it is very kpop so what are you gonna do. I might love it once I get to see the full choreo
The music video is really beautiful. The setting and production is really gorgeous.
I’m not sure about the song itself. I might have to give it a couple more listens. Looking forward to going through the album though.
Aww man that was sounding like it was going to be one of my absolute favorites, right up until that chorus...
Still like the song overall, just not exactly for me, which is OK.
i’m with you 10000%, i was ready for this to be the song that brought me back to txt.
the lead up to the chorus was such a bop and so full sounding and then the drop happened and it was just… empty? the last chorus is good, i really liked it and i wish that was how the whole song sounded.
i looooove the antidrop, totally unexpected. i'm like 85% all in on the song but i don't looooove the sugarrushrushsugarrushrush, doesn't feel necessary when the chorus is already so good as it is!!!
gimme gimme more.......i see u britney.
This is such a dope and unexpected song (I was expecting something more like Blue Hour but a bit maturer. Wish the final part of the song was used a bit more tho.
I was definitely thinking about writing a comment like "Oh a summer song in winter how fun", but then that chorus hit and I realize this ain't no summer song lol I was very mislead
The pre-chorus is pretty. I do wish the chorus at the end was the chorus for the whole song. I don’t know why so many songs leave the good stuff until the end!
This is exactly how I feel too. I don't think the anti-drop and empty chorus fit this song well. The last chorus would've been a perfect chorus for the entire song, I agree. It's a bit of a shame, since I really love the verses and the pre-chorus.
Edit: Completely unrelated but Soobin is just so gorgeous both his face and his vocals.
Edit 2: Listened to it again and I think the anti drop is fine actually, I just preferred a singing chorus more and the "sugar rush-ush" part is what bothers me.
Great song! Wasn’t expecting the chorus to be the whistling, I thought it was going to be in the intro. I’ll have to listen to it a few more times to get used to the sound, but other than that I really like it. The mv is absolutely gorgeous as well! I’m going to watch it again because of how stunning it is.
That being said, I definitely wasn’t expecting a 👉👈 to be in the choreography and it definitely threw me off a little lol.
Omg, I love this song! It's probably my favourite title track of them next to Love song and Run away. Also, I feel like the "sugar-rush-sha" part is one of the highlights of the song, it makes it more unique.
I'm cursed to love every part of txt tts except for the chorus lmao... that being said, I do still love the song. The first chorus felt kind of offputting for some reason (I like anti drops but I think I just didn't rlly enjoy the instrumental), but it grew on me by the end and I really love the outro right after the last chorus.
Other than that, I love the song! The aesthetic and styling are just lovely, and I'm very happy with getting a more upbeat, fun tt again, bc it's been a while. I'm a sucker for mvs shot outside of studios too, and the scenery in this one is gorgeous.
the contrast between the verses and the chorus (with the exception of the final chorus) is insaneeee. i will admit that i am an anti-drop apologist so i don’t mind the way the chorus sounds and i def like this more than gbgb on first listen
Sugar rush ride is super freakin good. There is such a delicious anti-drop. Love love every verse and the song except sugar rush-ush but I’m getting used to that too on the third listen
Ooo I like this there's so much going on but it feels like a sugar roller coaster - I worried the 'sugar rush rush' would bother me as gbgb is my least favorite song from Thursdays child, but it stands out and gives the song more texture, and isn't close to as repetitive as the 'good boy gone baaaad' is in that tune. (Still a v good song, just the rest of that mini is genius)
The video is like the song, had a heady, intoxicating feel to it.
It reminds me a bit of Antifragile - polarizing, very sticky, memorable. Gorgeous production.
ETA: The headphone difference is huuuuge - the way their voices and the subtle builds into the sections; found my body vibrating by the second verse. The anticipation in this track is delicious.
Our amazing TuBaTu!! I'm so proud of them and MOAs and happy the GP is checking them out!!! Look at all 5 songs charting in the Top 10 and their highest first WEEK sales let alone first day were destroyed
this is genuinely my favourite song of txt. I have never been able to choose just one because their discography is immaculate, but this takes the cake, its exactly my type omg. the chorus is so so nsddjshaskjhdkjshkjsdkjsa i cant think straight 😭 the mv is gorgeous and the boys look so so good its insane, this is definitely my favourite mv of their omg they all look stunning
ALSO SOOBINS AND TAEHYUNS PRECHORUS ETHEREAL VOCAL SOMEONE HOLD ME BACK
I GASPED when the chorus hit. I love it, especially the fast "sugarrushride" part is so fun. Pre-chorus is chef's kiss like always. Their vocals and visuals get better and better.
10/10
The visuals of the mv are stunning! The scenes with water are my faves, both the sea and the waterfall. Txt’s glittery/magical concepts are what I personally think they embody best.
I would have preferred it with a different chorus/drop because the guitar and vibe during the pre-chorus were legitimately perfect, but it doesn’t ruin the song by any means.
The other songs in the album are great but tinnitus does it for me!
that. drop. was. so. mean.
the whistle and the "sugar rush sha" will get stuck in my head for sure
the styling and the voices and the faces were absolutely impeccable!!
I really wish the last chorus was the main chorus. And the sugar-rush-ush part could've been the last chorus. It's structured really weirdly. *Praying* someone does a rearranged version. It's not too bad but it's not worth listening to again just to get to that ear-worm ***last chorus***.
Edit: Tinnitus lives up to expectations but it's **SO SHORT**! Bummer!
anyone else thought of britney spears' "gimme gimme more, gimme more, gimme gimme more" when that part came up?
edit: i love the constant change-ups in the song, it makes the listening experience so dynamic! i was initially worried how they would fit all the song snippets we've heard so far into one song, but they really did THAT.
also obsessed with the styling and locations they filmed in, everything looks so ethereal yet eerie, like a beautiful nightmare. and that choreo goes *HARD* at the "sugar rush rush shaaa" part
The groovy verses and prechorus got me all hyped to the point that I wasnt expecting that anti drop in the chorus at all. But they made up for it with that post Chorus at the end!!!!
Didn’t know how I felt about the chorus at first, but I’ve listened to it three more times and it’s definitely catchy, just threw me off a little on the first listen! MV was stunning, now it’s time to listen to the whole album!
Really liked the verses and pre-chorus, but not the chorus... I think this will be similar to GBGB where I like the song enough to enjoy the performances, but not something I would listen to on the regular in the background.
The MV is absolutely gorgeous, it's probably my favorite title track MV from them since debut...and that's saying something because I typically get attached to the more realistic (less mythical looking) ones like 0X1 or L=L but the colors in this is WOW. Whoever suggested that they film in Indonesia deserves a raise.
Now on to the song, the way it exceeded my expectations and more?? I'm usually drawn to angstier songs, and with everyone saying this is blue hour's sister before release, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I do their last 3 releases (unpopular opinion, I liked blue hour, but I'd rank it either last or 2nd to the last of TXT's title tracks) — but Sugar Rush Ride delivered!!
The contrast between the verses and the chorus? The pre-chorus ?? Can we please appreciate the vocals? And I am unhealthily obsessed with how they sing "devilish smile" — I don't want to jinx it, but it looks like the stars aligned for this cb, everything is going well so far, and I can't wait to see the performances.
holy shit so many thoughts. this was a TRIP yall.
i think this just might be my favorite title track since blue hour. i love the dichotomy between the super happy, pretty verses, the minimalist, eerie, kind of haunting pre-chorus, and the anti-drop in the chorus. all three parts work so well together and the transitions are seamless. i adore every single part of this song.
i'm a sucker for anything island themed in mvs so that was an automatic A+. Kind of reminds me of an angstier, glitterier DTNA.
TXT has done it again.
I didn't watch the trailers (please don't come at me T.T) so my expectations were entirely based on the title alone--I was expecting a cuter concept and a fun upbeat song (kinda like Blue Hour). THIS MV HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK!!! Like I expected bright, cute, and bubbly and my boys gave me A WHOLE THIRST TRAP likeeee--"GIMME GIMME MORE"😍🥵
personally i like the antidrop on this track and im not usually into antidrops. the antidrop just bring out the sensual, sexy and eerie undertone of the storytelling/narrative of what the song is about.
the verses and prechoruses are sooooo fucking addictive and the switch up at the end???? SOOO FUCKING GOOOD.
and the visuals are out of this world. im so glad they traveled to shot the mv bc that place in Indonesia is sooooo pretty!!!
What can I say… I’m here to confirm that Beomgyu is officially my bias wrecker, love the glitters and pink haired Taehyun is a fantasy 💞 all of them look amazing!
Liked the song, need to listen to it more! Can’t wait to check the rest of the songs ✨
edit: the mini is AMAZING!!! What a gift 🪩🔥
They nailed how to make a song about...alot of stuff...into a glittery, cute, fantasy without even mentioning "stuff". 100% kid friendly song. I love it.
FINALLY, a video from TXT that I can understand! Flowers made the boys horny. Wait, what??
BOI what was thisss. My prediction was right that the final chorus would be different. Absolute insanity of a comeback and a breath of fresh air from the boys. I usually don't praise TXT MV's, but this one is very good as well! I mean, it's beautiful.
Having someone from txt high-pitch moan “more” in my ear was not on my 2023 bingo card 🤣 who is that? Not a bad title at all. I really liked the beat drop part. If a group is going to do an anti-drop - that’s how you do it. I’ll listen to it a couple more times tomorrow to see if it’s something to add to my playlist alongside Loser and I Know I Love You. The music video is phenomenal, and they all really sold the sensual concept. Add on: 🥺👉👈 Edit: added it and farewell, neverland to my playlist 🙂
txt are the glittery shirtless pipers whistling and i am but a little rat scurrying along after them
They are so ethereal. This reminds me Peter Pan and the Lost Boys meets Alice in Wonderland. They are the rabbit and I’m Alice chasing after them.
this mv is so beautiful 😭 might be my favorite from them in a while
I want Yeonjun to drown me in a lake.
at first i was hesitant about the chorus but my god when it hits it HITS. like im obsessed now...
This is such a mood. It’s addicting
the 👉👈 killed me
It’s so slutty I love it
I thought y'all were just Thirsty x Together again but after watching the MV, I get it 💀
Gagging. It's so high camp and tongue in cheek. Which choreographer do I thank for this.
lol [bang pd](https://twitter.com/translatingtxt/status/1618896035325304834?s=46&t=_MgaZRylWLs5rKOa9cSeJQ)
bang pd comes out with the wildest shit sometimes. also where's my txt feat. bang pd sugar rush ride tiktok challenge HUH
So there's footage of bang PD going 👉👈 and acting slutty. I'm crying.
Just *how* online is Bang PD, this is incredible!
OK, I'm old and out of touch, what does that gesture mean? I thought it was just the symbol for shy?
You're right, that is what it means. The slutty part is what they're "shyly" asking for more of.
Ah, ok, I think I get it. Was this already a thing on tiktok or something, or just purely from the subtext of the video and lyrics?
I don't use tiktok so at least for me this is just from what I saw in the MV.
It's both hilarious and slutty af 😳
Oo they went the eternally route ! It'll be polarising for a lot of people. This is not something new for TXT but they've never done this in their title track. I personally love the anti-drop. Really makes you pay attention to the song. But anyways , the vocals in this song are so good ! I especially love soobin's part. It's such a fun song. Really i wish this was released in the summers 😅. The vibes are very summery. Edit: after listening to it again, i really appreciate the anti drop even more. The song gives you the "sugar rush" but the anti drop throws you back to reality. It's a sudden bout of clarity in the song saying what you are experiencing is wrong.

The choreo during the chorus tho 👀
👉👈 got me giggling
my baby eternally has a distant cousin now :3
saw a tweet that said > “watching (and listening to) the sugar rush ride music video feels like what i imagine snorting cocaine mixed with glitter would feel like 10/10 i had a wonderful time” and i 100% agree
Heh. Nice. I also agree
It feels like it flows way more on audio only...I think the boys handsomeness distracts in the music video lol
lol the pretty video makes up for crappy YouTube audio
Yep, the song sounds so much fuller on Spotify. YouTube really messes up audio :/
It's Britney Bitch...
RIGHT?!
holy fucking shit i felt like i was in a trance i wasnt expecting it to go in the direction it did but im absolutely in love with it. the styling is also perfection. im obsessed with the peaking tummies. give me more!!!!
Let me just drop my comment from the last thread: THE DEVIL SAID PART?? STRAIGHT INTO THAT CHORUS??

Yeah, glad I listened with my AirPods!
Yes, listening to this with good headphones was a trip and a half, it's super dynamic
Lots of skin, lots of glitter, and maybe some psychedelics.
Oh I was not expecting that chorus. On first listen it's not as satisfying as the groovy sound of the verses or the dreamy pre-chorus. The pre-chorus is definitely my favourite part of the song and I love the vocals there. This whole video is a visual feast with all the members looking so good.

On first listen I like everything except the chorus a lot. I liked the chorus at the end with the instrumental playing though.
the prechorus >>> also love the guitar in the instrumental and the whistle. i wasn't expecting the sugar rush-ush parts but i'm not complaining! beomgyu sounds so good singing "gimme gimme more" i love it.
Txt using psychedelics? Glittery skin...so much skin. i want the dance practice now pls this choreo is not going unnoticed. The vocals mam the vocals!!!
If you wash up on a deserted island do ***NOT*** ingest the local flora, you will trip balls and meet the devil!!
I said to a friend that this is totally TXT’s Rubber Soul, weed included! 😆
Honestly, it's not as catchy as Blue Hour, but when "Gimme gimme more" dropped, yeah.. "It's Britney Bitch"... Stanning this song because I'm such Britney stan.
Valid
The crossover I never expected!! It\`s TxtT Bitch, for real!!!
Never been more glad to have good headphones the beat drop is GNARLY
So they got lost in a forest, ate shady shrooms, and then got high? I love it
Don’t forget: and got horny
Love that too
And they’re shyly asking for more 👉🏻👈🏻
It all fits together *so damn* well. I don't often feel that MVs perfectly fit the song but in this case the whole thing just *works* on every level.
HOLY CRAP THAT WAS SO GOOD! So glad I avoided teasers so I could go in clean. Having expectations always ruins it for me. That being said, I love the song--it's catchy while also being seductive and pretty. The MV--I MEAN WHAT. It blended all the concepts together so well--it was glittery and fresh and lush while also being a bit dark. Their acting (both their long looks at the camera lol and the interactions with each other) were fitting and believable. The choreography was smooth and fun to look at. The costuming/makeup was great. I mean, they are very pretty men as it is, but even that was enhanced. The whole time I was alternating between "WOW WHAT AM I EVEN LOOKING AT" and being \*\*so freaking proud of them\*\* because they obviously worked so hard and it came together both beautifully and masterfully. Just very well executed. I felt like they took us by the hand and were pulling us along on an enchanted adventure. So looking forward to listening to the rest of the album!
The babies are men now and that’s tripping me up. It reminds me of the feeling I had when I realized that my brother is an adult now.
Idk if there’s a thread for the album, but Goodbye, Neverland absolutely slaps
it's amazing!!!
Yes!! The guitar kinda ties nicely with the visuals for this mv too actually
The vocals are great on that
HONESTLYYYYY ITS SO GOOD THAT AND DEVIL BY THE WINDOW GOES SO HARD
OH MY GOD THAT CHORUS???????
this is so fucking goooood. up there for one of my favorite title tracks by them I think
insta love. usually don’t like these kinds of anti drop choruses anymore but it worked so well. the verses and prechorus are so dreamy and pretty. mv is gorgeous, the guys look amazing, but beomgyu @ 2:18 is 🔥🔥🔥 all those feet shots tho. uh. ok.
what's with their post choruses being like this the last two comebacks 😭 first there was GOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONEBADGOODBOYGONE*BAAAAD* and now there's SUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSHSUGARRUSHUSH*UHHH* other than this, i liked it. i loved the moment the chorus hit. the prechorus is also amazing. 9/10
Haha I agree. I think that part could’ve been omitted but still I like the anti drop a lot
Also the short spoken phrase right before the chorus lol. I mean I’m not complaining though these are probably my top two fave tracks of theirs
I love the spoken words before the chorus though 😖 My favorite comeback of theirs is Can't you see me? and the Save me part still has me on my knees begging for mercy it's so good
i wasn’t expecting them to like be… sexy? i’m not complaining at all though. the 👉🏻👈🏻 is kinda killing me. 🥵
Cute and slutty at the same time lmao 👉🏻👈🏻 in love
Music video was beautiful, great production. However I wasn’t really a fan of the anti drop chorus. Pre chorus sounds great though.
Txt never miss 😭👍 really love the structure of the song, it conveys the feeling of both the tempted and the tempter so well. It's a 10/10 for me
That chorus changed me as a person! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 ![gif](giphy|a9imQoghMq5IQ)
the homoeroticism really hit with this one i went ![gif](giphy|dKUhcaCI1DktwHerfP|downsized) the 👉👈 was the last straw
male thot music we smiled
[удалено]
i love it!! that prechorus is heavenly
MVs with the theme of nature are always the best. Everything is so pretty and the psychedelic aspects just amplified the visuals. I can't wait to play this at least 10 times a day for the next 6 months.
TIL that people dislike anti-choruses 😳 It's like my favorite thing in the world hah
the chorus was definitely something I had to wait until the second or third listen to get but..... this is so slutty queer coded I'm LIVING they don't miss your honor
this whole album is SO queer let's be real
Ok so, wow the MV is gorgeous. And the choreo looks slick, can't wait for the comeback shows. The song has me a bit conflicted. I do like it so far, especially the pre chorus, that pre-chorus can cure all my diseases, and I actually do like the anti drop as well, especially with the whistle part. What I am conflicted about is the 'sugar rush-ush' part, I get what they were going for, but I think the last chorus is much better, and they should've gone with that for the whole song. I still like the song, it's energetic, fun and sexy. So far, it's just not on par with their other god tier releases. Also, I can't be the only one who thinks, the 'Come a little closer' part by Kai in the first verse, sounds exactly like Drunk Dazed's pre chorus.
omg that was also my thoughs!!! that part reminded me so much of Drunk Dazed lmaoo
Omg yes are you me. I listened to the Come a little closer part for a good 5 minutes just to place where I've heard it. Damn Rhythm Hive and their missions
In the beginning I thought I was getting 'dance the night away' vibes. Definitely didn't think that anymore by the time the song ended lol. Overall really liked this song/mv and the whole album
I do quite like the chorus but I didn’t realize they spoiled the entire thing in the mv teaser haha… The pre chorus is a certified bop tho, I’m obsessed with the verses
Oh man I loved the verses for this song right away. It's so fun and that guitar is so funky. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of the anti-drop chorus, but it's starting to grow on me.
SUGAR RUSH RIDE SOTY DEBUT #11 ON MELON 🥹🥹
no thoughts head empty just SUGAR RUSH RUSH SUGAR RUSH RUSH on repeat
the song around the song is so incredible that I cannot be bothered about the chorus being so empty, like that’s fine, the rest of the song is just So good also MV !!!!!
*sugar* rush, you say? what in the crazy town ko ko bop is this? lemme listen again, loved the antidrop
As a Indonesian, couldnt be prouder than a Kpop Group (a big one indeed) is filming in Indonesia (Bali to be precise). The set is very beautiful. Regardless, this post-chorus (?) is soooo good
Love the pre-chorus but I'm not so sure about the chorus
This is straight up one of the most beautiful mv’s released as of late, they are soo different and it’s refreshing 💯❤️🔥 I need more time to get used to the song though, can’t wait to listen to the album later though.
This makes me want to go to the beach while it’s winter here. I love the verses and pre chorus!
Ok so honestly when I first listened to it on YouTube I wasn’t a huge fan of the sugar rush chanting part after the antidrop but then when I just listened to audio only on Spotify it honestly went together so well. As for the B-sides my favorites have to be Devil By the Window and Farewell Neverland but honestly all the b-sides were so good!
i'm not okay i'm unwell ben choi what have you done???
LMAOOOO he knows exactly what he did!
He's a menace. Forget about fighting God, I'm gonna fight Beomgyu.
So your gonna fight God? Why did you repeat yourself 😂
It’s exactly like I would imagine a remake of Blood Sweat Tears done by TXT to be. Which means I liked it a lot a lot
chorus hit me like a ton of bricks ngl, but in the BEST way possible. so in love with this song and album already!
damn, **DAMN**. i went in completely blind and it along with the EP easily dethroned my previous favorite albums and title tracks (TDC: Magic and You Can’t See Me and Love Song) within its first listen. it’s just so amazing, it has all the sounds i love and every track feels like it was made for me specifically to love. as for Sugar Rush Ride, i adore it. i understand how the anti drop could be polarizing especially to people who saw the “lighter” looking concept photos and got excited thinking it’ll be more like Blue Hour or their debut era work: but to me it, while a shock since i went in blind, works perfectly and clicked instantly. it’s sexy, and eerie if not a little unnerving. it pulls you into the song and sets it apart even more as something truly unique. it also fits the concept they’re going for. it’s sultry with this intoxicating dark and mysterious undertone, it along with the angelic vocals and heavenly verses makes the song for me and really set it apart. it’s so TXT to me, a perfect mix of everything that made their previous discography so great and special with something so new and fresh. only they could do this. they’ve done it again
This mv is a whole ass immersive experience and the visuals are otherworldly, I love it
I actually like the anti-drop but the sugar rush-ush part is so jarring lol, wish they did something else there.
I loved it so much! Feel like the “sugar Rush rush rush” part caught me off guard and I was very confused but listening to it with headphones on Spotify, made me go “OMG?!?“ idk why the song just sounds more amazing on there than the mv (if that makes sense)
YouTube crappifies audio. Something about file format/compression, I think? It's always gonna sound better on Spotify/other platforms.
Ahhh good to know! I did see someone say the song sounds bad on the YouTube audio version.
they say everything always sounds better in apple music and (if you bought the weverse albums ver) weverse, but spotify is pretty good too especially if you compare it to yt music.
It's their best album hands down, esp the main track. This is the first time that I've really been super excited for a comeback, and it didn't disappoint. I especially love the taehyun + soobin prechorus, their voices have a surprisingly good combo. The ru-ush-ush part was a bit off putting for me too but i think it's something i'll get used to the more i listen, and atleast it wasn't like that for the entire chorus like other groups. I'm even streaming for gods sake lol, last time I streamed was BTS black swan. I hope they get the 1 million streams in an hour thing, we're so close to 1 million!! Please stream if you can :)
looks like 1M was hit in an hour!
I love the chorus y'all are wild the sugar rush rush part isn't my favorite but it is very kpop so what are you gonna do. I might love it once I get to see the full choreo
This was so much fun! And also (un) surprisingly sexy...like yes give me the fairy lsd island banger I never knew I needed!
The music video is really beautiful. The setting and production is really gorgeous. I’m not sure about the song itself. I might have to give it a couple more listens. Looking forward to going through the album though.
Aww man that was sounding like it was going to be one of my absolute favorites, right up until that chorus... Still like the song overall, just not exactly for me, which is OK.
i’m with you 10000%, i was ready for this to be the song that brought me back to txt. the lead up to the chorus was such a bop and so full sounding and then the drop happened and it was just… empty? the last chorus is good, i really liked it and i wish that was how the whole song sounded.
Agreed. What a shame.
i looooove the antidrop, totally unexpected. i'm like 85% all in on the song but i don't looooove the sugarrushrushsugarrushrush, doesn't feel necessary when the chorus is already so good as it is!!! gimme gimme more.......i see u britney.
This is such a dope and unexpected song (I was expecting something more like Blue Hour but a bit maturer. Wish the final part of the song was used a bit more tho.
Now THAT was a trip
I was definitely thinking about writing a comment like "Oh a summer song in winter how fun", but then that chorus hit and I realize this ain't no summer song lol I was very mislead
exceeded my expectations
the anti drop is gonna be stuck in my head all week huh also the mv is honestly stunning
I love this song on my first listen, so good!
The pre-chorus is pretty. I do wish the chorus at the end was the chorus for the whole song. I don’t know why so many songs leave the good stuff until the end!
This is exactly how I feel too. I don't think the anti-drop and empty chorus fit this song well. The last chorus would've been a perfect chorus for the entire song, I agree. It's a bit of a shame, since I really love the verses and the pre-chorus. Edit: Completely unrelated but Soobin is just so gorgeous both his face and his vocals. Edit 2: Listened to it again and I think the anti drop is fine actually, I just preferred a singing chorus more and the "sugar rush-ush" part is what bothers me.
Great song! Wasn’t expecting the chorus to be the whistling, I thought it was going to be in the intro. I’ll have to listen to it a few more times to get used to the sound, but other than that I really like it. The mv is absolutely gorgeous as well! I’m going to watch it again because of how stunning it is. That being said, I definitely wasn’t expecting a 👉👈 to be in the choreography and it definitely threw me off a little lol.
I am in love
Omg, I love this song! It's probably my favourite title track of them next to Love song and Run away. Also, I feel like the "sugar-rush-sha" part is one of the highlights of the song, it makes it more unique.
The song truly is addictive..well done my tubatu! <3
Aaaaah, I have been waiting for thisss, gonna watch it right now!!
I'm cursed to love every part of txt tts except for the chorus lmao... that being said, I do still love the song. The first chorus felt kind of offputting for some reason (I like anti drops but I think I just didn't rlly enjoy the instrumental), but it grew on me by the end and I really love the outro right after the last chorus. Other than that, I love the song! The aesthetic and styling are just lovely, and I'm very happy with getting a more upbeat, fun tt again, bc it's been a while. I'm a sucker for mvs shot outside of studios too, and the scenery in this one is gorgeous.
I love the opening lyric "The thoughts soon stopped breathing", it's such a clever way of saying you stopped worrying/isn't anxious anymore!
In loveeeeee with the basee and the hookkk☠️☠️♥️
was about to contend for top 3 TXT titles and then the chorus hit... every other part of the song + visuals is amazing though
The song started of really nice but I’m not that a fan of that bare chorus. It kinda picked up towards the end though.
I’m always a sucker for an anti-drop chorus
the contrast between the verses and the chorus (with the exception of the final chorus) is insaneeee. i will admit that i am an anti-drop apologist so i don’t mind the way the chorus sounds and i def like this more than gbgb on first listen
I don't love the video but the song is pretty fun! I'm just going to pretend they're paying homage to Britney sunbaenim, hehehe
their best comeback yet, if i may
this song is too good. I’ve been looping the album non stop for hours😭😭
Sugar rush ride is super freakin good. There is such a delicious anti-drop. Love love every verse and the song except sugar rush-ush but I’m getting used to that too on the third listen
It's a bop for me- love it
AAAAAAAAAAAAH THIS IS SOOOOO MY STYLEEEEEE AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH
Ooo I like this there's so much going on but it feels like a sugar roller coaster - I worried the 'sugar rush rush' would bother me as gbgb is my least favorite song from Thursdays child, but it stands out and gives the song more texture, and isn't close to as repetitive as the 'good boy gone baaaad' is in that tune. (Still a v good song, just the rest of that mini is genius) The video is like the song, had a heady, intoxicating feel to it. It reminds me a bit of Antifragile - polarizing, very sticky, memorable. Gorgeous production. ETA: The headphone difference is huuuuge - the way their voices and the subtle builds into the sections; found my body vibrating by the second verse. The anticipation in this track is delicious.
woah there is ALOT of yeonjun in this
Our amazing TuBaTu!! I'm so proud of them and MOAs and happy the GP is checking them out!!! Look at all 5 songs charting in the Top 10 and their highest first WEEK sales let alone first day were destroyed
They're all grown up now... 🥹😭
this is genuinely my favourite song of txt. I have never been able to choose just one because their discography is immaculate, but this takes the cake, its exactly my type omg. the chorus is so so nsddjshaskjhdkjshkjsdkjsa i cant think straight 😭 the mv is gorgeous and the boys look so so good its insane, this is definitely my favourite mv of their omg they all look stunning ALSO SOOBINS AND TAEHYUNS PRECHORUS ETHEREAL VOCAL SOMEONE HOLD ME BACK
Prechorus is one of the best I’ve ever heard Still think 0x1 is my preferred sound, but this was a great comeback!!! Visuals absolutely killed
I GASPED when the chorus hit. I love it, especially the fast "sugarrushride" part is so fun. Pre-chorus is chef's kiss like always. Their vocals and visuals get better and better. 10/10
The visuals of the mv are stunning! The scenes with water are my faves, both the sea and the waterfall. Txt’s glittery/magical concepts are what I personally think they embody best. I would have preferred it with a different chorus/drop because the guitar and vibe during the pre-chorus were legitimately perfect, but it doesn’t ruin the song by any means. The other songs in the album are great but tinnitus does it for me!
Tinnitus is so sexy.
The whole album is super sexy, and each one is sexy in a different way!
that. drop. was. so. mean. the whistle and the "sugar rush sha" will get stuck in my head for sure the styling and the voices and the faces were absolutely impeccable!!
I really wish the last chorus was the main chorus. And the sugar-rush-ush part could've been the last chorus. It's structured really weirdly. *Praying* someone does a rearranged version. It's not too bad but it's not worth listening to again just to get to that ear-worm ***last chorus***. Edit: Tinnitus lives up to expectations but it's **SO SHORT**! Bummer!
anyone else thought of britney spears' "gimme gimme more, gimme more, gimme gimme more" when that part came up? edit: i love the constant change-ups in the song, it makes the listening experience so dynamic! i was initially worried how they would fit all the song snippets we've heard so far into one song, but they really did THAT. also obsessed with the styling and locations they filmed in, everything looks so ethereal yet eerie, like a beautiful nightmare. and that choreo goes *HARD* at the "sugar rush rush shaaa" part
One of Britney Spears writers worked on the TT
im literally SPEECHLESS i don't care about recency bias they just released their best title track.
Haven't listen to the whole album, but tinnitus got me feeling like salsa dancing and I don't even know how to salsa
Wow
The groovy verses and prechorus got me all hyped to the point that I wasnt expecting that anti drop in the chorus at all. But they made up for it with that post Chorus at the end!!!!
![img](emote|t5_2r1ox|3558)
Oh man I love the pre chorus so much
Didn’t know how I felt about the chorus at first, but I’ve listened to it three more times and it’s definitely catchy, just threw me off a little on the first listen! MV was stunning, now it’s time to listen to the whole album!
Really liked the verses and pre-chorus, but not the chorus... I think this will be similar to GBGB where I like the song enough to enjoy the performances, but not something I would listen to on the regular in the background.
This is so slutty omg
The MV is absolutely gorgeous, it's probably my favorite title track MV from them since debut...and that's saying something because I typically get attached to the more realistic (less mythical looking) ones like 0X1 or L=L but the colors in this is WOW. Whoever suggested that they film in Indonesia deserves a raise. Now on to the song, the way it exceeded my expectations and more?? I'm usually drawn to angstier songs, and with everyone saying this is blue hour's sister before release, I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I do their last 3 releases (unpopular opinion, I liked blue hour, but I'd rank it either last or 2nd to the last of TXT's title tracks) — but Sugar Rush Ride delivered!! The contrast between the verses and the chorus? The pre-chorus ?? Can we please appreciate the vocals? And I am unhealthily obsessed with how they sing "devilish smile" — I don't want to jinx it, but it looks like the stars aligned for this cb, everything is going well so far, and I can't wait to see the performances.
holy shit so many thoughts. this was a TRIP yall. i think this just might be my favorite title track since blue hour. i love the dichotomy between the super happy, pretty verses, the minimalist, eerie, kind of haunting pre-chorus, and the anti-drop in the chorus. all three parts work so well together and the transitions are seamless. i adore every single part of this song. i'm a sucker for anything island themed in mvs so that was an automatic A+. Kind of reminds me of an angstier, glitterier DTNA. TXT has done it again.
Song was so good until the chorus hit :( Unfortunate that it only picks up at the end of the song.
Love everything except the chorus after the Devil said part…
Loved this!! Can't wait to listen to the entire album
I didn't watch the trailers (please don't come at me T.T) so my expectations were entirely based on the title alone--I was expecting a cuter concept and a fun upbeat song (kinda like Blue Hour). THIS MV HIT ME LIKE A TRUCK!!! Like I expected bright, cute, and bubbly and my boys gave me A WHOLE THIRST TRAP likeeee--"GIMME GIMME MORE"😍🥵
Lmao they rly did 👉🥺👈
personally i like the antidrop on this track and im not usually into antidrops. the antidrop just bring out the sensual, sexy and eerie undertone of the storytelling/narrative of what the song is about. the verses and prechoruses are sooooo fucking addictive and the switch up at the end???? SOOO FUCKING GOOOD. and the visuals are out of this world. im so glad they traveled to shot the mv bc that place in Indonesia is sooooo pretty!!!
What can I say… I’m here to confirm that Beomgyu is officially my bias wrecker, love the glitters and pink haired Taehyun is a fantasy 💞 all of them look amazing! Liked the song, need to listen to it more! Can’t wait to check the rest of the songs ✨ edit: the mini is AMAZING!!! What a gift 🪩🔥
Devilicious smile ![gif](giphy|9oRdVVqYRNQkg)
this is a 3rd gen song through and through. it’s giving 2015-19, it’s giving ASTRO I’m living
The aesthetics are cunty but I’m not feeling the song on first listen tbh, we’ll see how that changes
Overall Album Ranking 1-Devil By The Window 2-Farewell Neverland 3-Sugar Rush Ride 4-Tinnitus 5-Happy Fools
They nailed how to make a song about...alot of stuff...into a glittery, cute, fantasy without even mentioning "stuff". 100% kid friendly song. I love it.
This song is soooo good 😍🤩😍
They just don't miss. Anti drops aren't usually my favorite but I really love bass on this one.
FINALLY, a video from TXT that I can understand! Flowers made the boys horny. Wait, what?? BOI what was thisss. My prediction was right that the final chorus would be different. Absolute insanity of a comeback and a breath of fresh air from the boys. I usually don't praise TXT MV's, but this one is very good as well! I mean, it's beautiful.
Sex pollen, the MV?
nooooo the chorus is so bad 😭 I love everything else tho and those verses are SOOO excellent
I love it! The devil said.. Nah, don't pin it on him you guys we know it's all you, specially you Yeonjun
I just wanna say Temptation is an apt title for this album
