CNBLUE Expands Music Palette With Grooving 'You're So Fine' Single, 'Blueming' EP
For years, CNBLUE has been known in the K-pop scene as the No. 1 band for feel-good rock-pop. But last year's "Cinderella" single and 2gether album saw the group embrace an electro-pop sound. Similar to how Maroon 5 (whom the group has earned many comparisons to) went in a new direction a few years into their career, CNBLUE continues to expand its musical palette with a disco-tinged new single and ambitious EP.
"You're So Fine" sees the group incorporating feel-good brass and horns, making for a disco-tinged sound that fits singer Jung Yonghwa's voice like a glove, and works just as well as his members adding backing vocals on the chorus. The soulful sound has been in the K-pop scene for a minute, but CNBLUE finds a way to make it sound fresh compared to its contemporaries in a song that feels like a continuation of a sound explored in the 2gether track "Hold My Hand."
The new single finds a nice home with its accompanying music video, as the quartet appears to be lounge singers—which is perfect for their new track's sound—all clamoring over a guest who comes into the lobby.
