1.List of songs to be featured

Since the author is a Japanese speaker and does not understand Thai, I referred to this Japanese translation to grasp the nuances of the lyrics.

These songs, plus the latest song "Champagne Poppin" and DVI's original song "SUGAR", are recommended based on the following 7 songs.

  • Hidden Track - TRINITY

  • Life Ain’t Over - TRINITY

  • NOBODY - TRINITY

  • I don’t miss you - TRINITY

  • Oh! Oh! - TRINITY

  • Champagne Poppin - TRINITY

  • SUGAR - DVI


2.Song Recommendation

①Hidden Track - TRINITY

I interpreted this song as having the theme of "It's time to confide my love that I have been hiding for a long time." If you like this song, here are some songs with a similar atmosphere to this song.

Crazy for Your Love - BALLISTIK BOYZ
I think the subtlety of loving and cherishing the person is common to "Hidden Track". This song has no rap part and is performed with only vocals(*1), and I think the soft melody goes well with TRINITY's music.

Best For You - PSYCHIC FEVER
The theme of this song is the conflict of having feelings for a close friend and not being able to suppress the feelings that grow in opposition to the desire for the friend's happiness. This song is more frustrating than "Hidden Track".


②Life Ain’t Over - TRINITY

I interpreted the theme as "take off a love affair that ended badly and powerfully move on with your own life."If you like this song, here are some songs with a similar atmosphere to this song.

ANTI-HERO's - BALLISTIK BOYZ
BOTCASH mentioned about this song in NSB Ep.7. It is a song full of strength that does not give in to adversity, with the will to go forward as one believes, even as an unorthodox outsider. In this music video, PSYCHIC FEVER also participated as a back-up dancer.

Spread The Wings - PSYCHIC FEVER
The song represents PSYCHIC FEVER, which embraces infinite possibilities, just like a bird spreading its wings and taking flight right now. Although the official video was only an old one, the current performance has numerous changes to the lyrics and positions.


③NOBODY - TRINITY

I interpreted the song as describing a sweet love that makes you so captivated that you can't see anything but the other person. If you like this song, here are some songs with a similar atmosphere to this song.

ラストダンスにBYE BYE (LAST DANCE NI BYE BYE) - BALLISTIK BOYZ
It describes the feeling of wanting a person who has been hurt by an unrequited love to turn to me. It features a somewhat retro and nostalgic melody. I did not list it first because it features so many other vocal songs, but I also recommend "In My Eyes", another vocal song.

Bitter Sweet - PSYCHIC FEVER
The lyrics are about going through hardships and pains in many aspects, not only in love, but also in many other ways, but still moving forward each day in a positive manner. I think the melody, which gives a sense of sparkle, is a good match for TRINITY.


④I don't miss you - TRINITY

I think this song is about the frustration of not being able to forget a past lover. If you like this song, here are some songs with a similar atmosphere to this song.

Strangers - BALLISTIK BOYZ
This is another vocal song. It is a song with a cold atmosphere and a disconcerting feeling, of wanting to reconnect with a past lover, but also knowing that you can never get back together again.

Snow Candy - PSYCHIC FEVER
The song has in common that it depicts the sadness of remembering a past lover in a winter town, but the lyrics are sprinkled with modern words and filled with the freshness that is PSYCHIC FEVER. It is a royal R&B song performed with vocals only. (*3)


④Oh! Oh! - TRINITY

I interpreted the song as expressing the joyful but somewhat restless soar at the beginning of love. If you like this song, here are some songs with a similar atmosphere to this song.

SUM BABY - BALLISTIK BOYZ
It is winter in Japan while they are in Thailand, but Thailand is always summer, so let me recommend a summer song as well! This is a refreshing song that combines the bouncy atmosphere of love with the liberating feeling of summer. Aside from summer songs, I also recommend "Day Dreaming", which also has a chill vibe.

Choose One - PSYCHIC FEVER
This is PSYCHIC FEVER's debut song, a fresh song filled with enthusiasm and positivity. It has less of a romantic element, but its cheerful and heart-pumping melody is similar to that of "Oh! Oh!".


⑥Champagne Poppin - TRINITY

I read it briefly since it is all in English. I would like to recommend some songs that is lively and nuanced as a party tune.

PASION - BALLISTIK BOYZ
The characteristic bouncy rhythm of this song is addictive, and it is especially popular in live performances. It is often performed at events in Thailand and many fancams have been posted. Please try to feel the heat.

Tokyo Spiral - PSYCHIC FEVER
Although not a party tune, this song has many performances that involve the audience, such as inciting Hands Up. Along with the aforementioned "Spread The Wings" and "Spark It Up", which also has a lot of incitement, this song is also a popular song at Thai events.


⑦SUGAR - DVI

Since the author cannot hear and understand the lyrics, I will pick up a song with the same characteristic tune and choreography as "SUGAR".

Animal - BALLISTIK BOYZ
The song is an intense and wild love story with an urban and addictive melody. The song became very popular and topical, and has been performed frequently at events not only in Japan but also in Thailand.

Hotline - PSYCHIC FEVER
The song depicts a vivid love story in which two persons' interactions cross paths, but they are seriously in love and do not want the relationship to end in a "casual" relationship. It is similar to "SUGAR" in its characteristic "🤙" pose with the thumb and pinky finger up.

This is the end of the song introduction, thank you for your patience so far. I hope you can find a song that interests you. From here on, I will guide you to check out the remaining BALLISTIK BOYZ and PSYCHIC FEVER songs for those who are interested in them.
