Wonder Girls

'I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You
nan dareun sarameun sirheo niga animyeon sirheo
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody'

That bloody song has been hounding me every single place I go! I first heard that song in one of the shopping complexes about a week or so ago. It was so bloody irritating that I couldn't help but notice it. In fact the darn tune kept playing over and over in my mind to the point of driving me crazy.

You know that feeling where no matter how hard you try get it out of your head, you just cannot. Well, I thought after a good nights sleep it would help clear that atrocious tune out of my head. And it did work in a way. I woke up the next day with the song totally forgotten.

Then I went to another mall with wifey later in the evening and guess what, they were playing that song again. Arrrggghhhh! Not another day of having that tune run in my head all day! As luck or rather arse luck would have it, every mall or hypermarket I went after that was playing that song with the volume on full blast.

The last straw was today. Just after finishing my colonix reviews, wifey, the boys and me were out in Carrefour for dinner and they had that song playing again. This time I decided to head home to find out just who the heck this girl group was and with some help from wifey, I discovered they're a South Korean girl group that debuted in early 2007 and apparently they became popular with the song 'Tell Me', which I shall not even bother to and listen cos I'm afraid it would stay in my head all year long!


They entered the American market in 2009 with the single 'Nobody' (the same bloody song that has been plaguing me everywhere!) and what's even worse is the song made it to the Billboard Hot 100 list as the first Korean group to make the list. Well, hooray for them but for me, that song seems to be following me around everywhere I go. Maybe I should go and buy the single or something cos it just might be trying to tell me something ... LOL!

Here, take a look at the lyrics, maybe you can tell me if there's some secret coded Dan Brown message in it or not.

'You Know I still Love You Baby.
And it will never change. (Saranghae)

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

Why are you trying to, to make me leave ya

I know what you're thinking
Baby why aren't you listening
How can I just
Just love someone else and
Forget you completely
When I know you still love me

Telling me you're not good enough

My life with you is just too tough
You know it's not right so
Just stop and come back boy
How can this be
When we were meant to be

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

Why can't we just, just be like this

Cause it's you that I need and nothing else until the end
Who else can ever make me feel the way I
I feel when I'm with you, no one will ever do

Telling me you're not good enough

My life with you is just too tough
You know me enough so
You know what I need boy
Right next to you is where I need to be.

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

I don't want no body, body

I don't want no body, body

Honey you know it's you that I want, it's you that I need

Why can't you see~

I want nobody nobody But You, I want nobody nobody But You

How can I be with another, I don't want any other
I want nobody nobody nobody nobody

Back to the days when we were so young and wild and free

Nothing else matters other than you and me
So tell me why can't it be
Please let me live my life my way
Why do you push me away
I don't want nobody nobody nobody nobody but you'.

    It's not just about the song lyric that's haunting. The dance routine is also one of the reasons this song is a hit number.
    Check on YouTube and you'll find a lot of Wonder Girls wannabe doing the group's dance routine. And majority doing it are not even girls. Hahaha.

  7. Poor you. Whenever I walk in a mall, I always have my iPod with me, listening to stuff I prefer listening to. But then, I do it only if I'm alone...

    OR... you could listen to some other song to eliminate the effect of the annoying song.

  8. *ignores the post.

    I hate that song. I mean yes the repeating numbers of time it's been on is =_= killing my ears. Not because it's a bad song, it's because of the numbers of times it's been playing everywhere. Gosh. I'm gonna stick to my playlist rather than radio station these days.
