Title track is called "Lovesick Girls"
Posted by: Klumzee Sep 28 2020, 04:50 PM
So is the album called Lovesick Girls or is it still BLACKPINK: The Album?
Either way I'm excited, probably my favourite K-Pop act and they've certainly been making all the right steps this year to dominating globally!
Posted by: Cameron Sep 28 2020, 05:00 PM
Yeah, I am unsure of what the album is going to be called. We will need to wait for the official confirmation 
Posted by: Bré Sep 28 2020, 06:03 PM
The term 'title track' is just K-Pop jargon for 'lead single', it doesn't mean it's the name of the album.
The tracklist for the album was leaked via Shazam and apparently it's only 8 songs (2 of which are already released ofc) so it's basically just another EP after all
1. Lovesick Girls (Title Track)
2. How You Like That
3. Ice Cream (feat. Selena Gomez)
4. Bet U Wanna (feat. Cardi B)
5. Pretty Savage
6. Crazy Over You
7. Love To Hate Me
8. You Never Know

who knew Bre knew kpop jargon 
learning every day :')
Posted by: Bré Sep 28 2020, 06:26 PM
I picked it up from being confused at K-Pop discussions xx (see also: the word 'comeback' literally just meaning any new release no matter how long it has been since the previous one)
Posted by: Klumzee Sep 28 2020, 06:49 PM
I just don't understand why they are just choosing to use English wrong? There was nothing wrong with the original terms
Posted by: *Callum Sep 28 2020, 11:06 PM
The terms ‘title track’ and ‘comeback’ derive from Korean culture. They’re the words that are used to describe what Bré has already explained, so I wouldn’t say it’s wrong English per say, they’re just examples of Koreanisms.
Anyway I am beyond excited for this. Yeah it sucks that there are only eight tracks after all these years, but on the flip side at least it’s a moderately full body of work [after all these years].
Posted by: Alberto! Sep 29 2020, 12:44 AM
Yes their social messaging/hashtag style must be very Korean, which is probably why it comes across as quite bizarre to a western user.
I remember a recent press release which also was in English but looked like it had never been proofread by a fluent speaker/copyrighter, so English is definitely not their team's forte

”Lovesick Girls” MV Teaser:
this is gonna be SO GOOD
Posted by: Brightest Blue Sep 30 2020, 06:50 AM
Oooh, that sounds lowkey incredible!
Avicii Wake Me Up vibes

Less than 24 hours left I’m melting
Posted by: Cameron Oct 1 2020, 02:51 PM
The Cardi collab has a snippet floating about Twitter which sounds really promising
Posted by: Lovesick Cody Oct 1 2020, 06:29 PM
I love the fact that BP is doing more concepts than just the usual "club banger with designer everything": Sour Candy sounded like something f(x) would do and the virtual avatar lyric video was so different for them, HYLT was within their comfort zone, Ice Cream had more of a bubblegum concept, and this looks like they're paying homage to early 2010's K-pop with the visuals, I am SO EXCITED *.*
I'm just sad that TWICE is promoting at the end of the month so once again we were robbed of TwicePink interaction 
Posted by: LewisGT Oct 1 2020, 06:35 PM
I'm so excited to listen to this on by lunch break tomorrow 
Just got an email from HMV to say my physical copy has been dispatched too!
Posted by: jlj Oct 1 2020, 07:38 PM
Is this likely to be the #1 album next week?
Posted by: WhoOdyssey Oct 1 2020, 09:22 PM
What sort of sales would you predict for this? There's a lot of competition, I think #1 will be Queen or Bon Jovi
Posted by: Lovesick Cody Oct 2 2020, 04:07 AM
This is FANTASTIC
Posted by: Jay* Oct 2 2020, 05:43 AM
Lovesick Girls is great! This the most I've liked a BLACKPINK song on first listen (admittedly I've https://www.last.fm/user/JaydyGaga/library/music/BLACKPINK)
Posted by: Cameron Oct 2 2020, 06:16 AM
Lovesick Girls is excellent!!!
Listening to the album right now
Posted by: Thom Hyphen Kay Oct 2 2020, 06:29 AM
What a great comeback! Don’t remember who said, but it definitely has that golden age K-pop (late 2000s/early 10s) feel for me, it’s almost like an f(x) song. Checking the album out ASAP

Lovesick Girls in incredible 
Posted by: *Callum Oct 2 2020, 08:07 AM
This album is incredible from top-to-bottom. Lovesick Girls is HUGE but I could just as easily have seen Pretty Savage being the lead single because it’s also a banger!
THE ALBUM: Initial Ranking
1. How You Like That
2. Ice Cream (feat. Selena Gomez)
3. Lovesick Girls
4. Pretty Savage
5. Love To Hate Me
6. Bet You Wanna
7. Crazy Over You
8. You Never Know
Lovesick Girls will probably overtake Ice Cream soon enough and potentially HYLT at a later date also. Such a stellar debut. My one complaint: it’s way too short, a 24 minute running time does not a full-length album make.
Posted by: Jack Oct 2 2020, 09:12 AM
Lovesick Girls and Bet You Wanna are so good!
Posted by: Cameron Oct 2 2020, 11:36 AM
Rapper Jisoo has me floored
Posted by: jlj Oct 2 2020, 11:48 AM
Idk if this is optimistic but maybe like 25K overall for the week?
Posted by: WhoOdyssey Oct 2 2020, 12:03 PM
It's quite hard to predict sales for it, but I'd guess that Queen will do 30kish+
Posted by: ɥɔʇᴉq Oct 2 2020, 01:19 PM
Dang. Lovesick Girls is FABULOUS. That chorus is beyond catchy.
Less than 20 minutes of new music lmao.
Three words though. Crazy. Over. You. It f***ing slaps SO hard *.*
The whole thing is a bit patchy but it's not bad.
Crazy Over You
How You Like That
Lovesick Girls
...
You Never Know (NOPE)
Pretty Savage and Bet You Wanna are meh so far.

21 Savage and Metro Boomin will easily take the #1 spot on next Friday’s HITS Top 50. Epic shares this release with Republic, adding yet another #1 to the latter’s impressive 2020 run. Savage Mode II will log the largest weekly total yet for 21 Savage, whose best start hitherto was in December 2018, when I Am > I Was opened with 131k. This is Epic’s second #1 of the year following Future’s High Off Life, which debuted with 153k in May. Interscope's distaff K-Pop group BLACKPINK also appear headed for a six-digit bow.
Here’s what we know at the moment.
21 Savage & Metro Boomin (Slaughter Gang/Epic/Boominati/Republic) 170-195k total activity, 14-17k album
BLACKPINK (Interscope) 110-125k, 90-100k
Bryson Tiller (RCA) 75-85k, 6-9k
Lany (Interscope) 40-50k, 30-40k
Bon Jovi (Island) 19-22k, 18-21k

'Lovesick Girls' is HUGE sounding. I am floored 
Is that the next single?
Posted by: Tafty Oct 3 2020, 10:28 PM
They were sitting on Bet You Wanna & Lovesick Girls and they decided to LEAD INTO THE ALBUM WITH 'ICE CREAM'!?
Posted by: Bré Oct 3 2020, 10:47 PM
'Ice Cream' is still a bop tbh, no shame xx
Posted by: Lovesick Cody Oct 4 2020, 03:31 AM
Posted by: *Callum Oct 4 2020, 11:05 AM
They’re so adorable can’t wait for the Dance Practice. Hopefully this is able break the Top 40 over here this week along with a Top 10 album.
Posted by: WhoOdyssey Oct 5 2020, 02:45 PM
An interesting thing I noticed is that David Guetta has a writing credit on 'Lovesick Girls'
Posted by: *Callum Oct 6 2020, 08:47 PM
It’s coming for a Top 5 debut here, I really hope that it hangs on!

They just closed the gap substantially since last nights discounting!
They're now #2 in the mids and around 5.3k behind Queen & Adam Lambert!
If they remain top 2, it'll be the first girl group debut album to hit top 3, since Little Mix - DNA in 2012 and the first to hit top 2 since Girls Aloud's debut in 2003!
Posted by: *Callum Oct 8 2020, 03:58 PM
Come through Lisa!
Jisoo’s dancing has improved so much, this song really is a step-up from Ice Cream in terms of the choreography. Hoping it can outpeak Ice Cream although it’s only at #35 in today’s chart update (IC debuted and peaked at #39).
Posted by: jlj Oct 8 2020, 04:00 PM
Go on BLACKPINK! #2 would be so impressive when you think it’ll be the first time an album by a girl group has done that since 2003!

In a recent fan meeting, Rosé leaked that there will apparently be a release for a new music video for her single GONE and she added a may comeback for blackpink ♡ we don't know if she meant the month may or if it may be coming… but it's guaranteed it MAY be coming 😀
Posted by: Alberto! Jun 3 2021, 11:57 AM
Well May has been and gone so I imagine she's talking about a possibility. (Or May 2022 lol)
Posted by: ClaudiaKinkleman Jun 3 2021, 06:09 PM
Why would she release two music videos for the song that wasn’t even the title single? And given that May is already over are we sure that this isn’t an old fanmeet?
Posted by: Bré Jun 3 2021, 08:10 PM
That post is just a spam account copying https://www.quora.com/Will-there-be-any-BLACKPINK-comeback-in-the-summer-of-2021 that was posted in April. The new account and the fact it refers to things coming in May when May is already over should have been a giveaway... 
Posted by: ITz Cody Jun 6 2021, 09:15 PM
Well I guess the new release part was true... with a Japanese release for The Album coming August 3rd
Posted by: ClaudiaKinkleman Jun 7 2021, 12:08 PM
So that’s no new comeback from them at least until the end of the year then…
