IU On Yoo Hee Yeol’s ‘Sketchbook’ (7/3)

{credit: CodeMonmonSeason2 @ youtube}

You know I love this girl, you know I worship her! ♥!   I’m not familiar with this music show (is it new or have I just been missing out on another awesome music show?!), but I really loved IU’s performances on it.  I embedded the clip of her covering SNSD’s ‘Gee’, Big Bang’s ‘Lies’, and SuJu’s ‘Sorry Sorry’ since those covers are just a;lskjflksj amazing, but she also performed some of her own songs :).   IU was fantastic, the audience was very supportive, and the host looked starry-eyed :DDDD!   I absolutely loved how she sang that one line in ‘Sorry Sorry’ so cheekily at 3:30 and the host is like OH SNAP SHE’S ONTO ME.

I think she, like 2AM (they’re ridiculously good and need more love), is one of those artists that have crazy amounts of talent, but just need better songs that show off their vocal prowess.  I don’t think songs like ‘Boo’ do her voice any justice at all, but I really love the acoustic songs she does and of course ‘Mia’ was EPIC.  I’m looking forward to seeing her take more control of her own music, because she’s a very, very talented girl and if her company just let her run with it, she could be even more amazing than she is now.  The cute concept should be freaking retired already.

Some other IU-related items:
♥ Bizniz – Suga Luv (feat. IU).   The combination of her vocals with his rapping is just lovely ♥♥♥.   I hope IU gets to collaborate with many more artists, sort of like what Younha has been doing :).  Epik High x IU, please!  I’m still waiting for another song as epic as ‘Umbrella’ ♥~.
♥ Sukira – EunTeuk Talk About IU.  They’re playing ‘Boo’ on Sukira; Eeteuk remarks, “She’s cute~” and Eunhyuk says that IU (he calls her Ji Eun) is like his little sister ♥.  *screams*  THAT IS SO CUTE LAKSJDF:ALKJDFS.   (Eunhyuk seems like a fun person to be around, I’m jealous lolololol.)  Eeteuk asks Eunhyuk to introduce IU to him XDDD.

    • Her acoustic covers are just golden! *__* I love how she makes all the songs her own <3.

      I went O___o when I saw how many pages I had to backtrack lol! But it's understandable, it's a very Big Deal! I'm so happy for the boys <333

  2. This girl is out of this world… I saw another cut she did Tamia’s Almost… her english is pretty good…
    Ya I agree,the cute concept should be retired pronto.

    Oh, I think this show took over Lee Hana’s Peppermint, she has drama/movie commitment, which took over not too long ago from YDH’s Loveletter. I love all these music show, which reminds me… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7S1vi0exolU from Sketchbook as well, 2NE1 parody by “3NE1″… Park Kyung Lim (I miss her in Xman!!!), Lee Soo Young & Jang Nara. Doesn’t get better than this!!!

    And EunTeuk team… ok… now that’s CUTE… Eetuek said
    “I said she is cute first… ” Aigoo this 2 boys…And I think its summer in Korea… I am this close to kidnap Hyukkie and him in his sleeveless tee…. nom nom nom… can he stop being so hot?!

    • Ah I saw that clip too! It was really lovely *___* <333. And I don't understand why cute is still all the rage … it might have been, well, cute the first few times, but now I just think it's old news :X.

      Thanks for the heads up! Ahhh too bad about Lee Hana's Peppermint, I loved that show, but at least we have another music show to replace it :D.

      Thanks so much for the linkage! LOL that was hilarious XDDDD.

      (I've been wanting to kidnap Hyukkie since forever now. He's always been one of my faves, but the way he's just grown so confident and hotter with their third jib is … awesome <3333.)
