The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 598

~ Michele ~ Leave a comment

Have you ever looked an opal gemstone? They are so unique. It seems as if there is an entire separate world living within in the stone itself. It has movement and captures light in a translucent vivid way. Known as the ‘Eye Stone,’ opals are like lightening in a rainbow, flashing their brilliance even with the slightest movement. They are pleasing to the sight, a seductive stone associated with love, passion, emotion and desire. They are also considered to be an inspirational stone to artists who write, dance, sing and play music. But what has any of this to do with G.O? Well, we have reached the letter O of The ABC’s of G.O and my word choice has opal as its foundation. Yes, to me, G.O is like a brilliant opal, he is opalescent.

Do not let that mischievous and adorable smile up there fool you for one second into believing this is going to be a sweet cam offering for this Fan-Camming Friday. We all know how G.O’s intrinsic sweetness hits me hard, like sledgehammer-to-the-heart hard. With all of his recent updating, it has been sweetness overload – in a good way! So instead of simply adding to the sweet, I am going to about face and opt for the sexy. The overt, coming at you like a freight train sexy. Picture this, if you will: Daegu, 30 April 2011, G.O dressed in black, and Y. Ready?

If G.O asked you which one of his English cover songs you wanted him to either sing again and/or record but said you could only choose one, which one would you choose? That is such a difficult question as he has covered so many, and covered them well. I know I would have a difficult time making a choice. Really difficult. But I think if I had to choose just one, I would ask for Wildflower. Yes, even over Hurricane and any one of the other beautiful Eric Benét ballads he has covered. Even over Song For Your Tears which you all know is my kryptonite. Maybe it is because Wildflower has stood the test of time as an iconic ballad that has been successfully covered since it was written back in the 1970’s. It is gentle, melodic and the lyrics are simply beautiful. And think about it, which one of the many English songs has G.O consistently covered? Yes, Wildflower. He covered it as early as his Tykeys days, and as recently as January 2015. Clearly, it is special to him. Today, it makes its return in Vocal Virtuosity form, and a mere 27 seconds at that. Pure vocal heaven.

추석 잘 보내세요!

Here we are celebrating another Chuseok with our delightful enlisted music man and this year, he did not waste any time in updating by sharing this early Chuseok greeting last night. He also instituted a fun hashtag . . . #응추석 [Yeah, Chuseok] ~ so cheeky. Do you think we can get it to trend? In any event, the hint of a smile on his face is too sweet! And, he removed his face mask before capturing the shot. Double sweet! Chuseok is a very important high holiday in Korea and I am sure G.O will enjoy the extended days off from his public service duties to celebrate with family. Chuseok 2017 begins today and will be celebrated by our Korean friends around the world for the next three days. Please join me in wishing G.O and his beautiful family a very happy and healthy Chuseok.

It is without question the best of both worlds when we get to hear G.O sing while also simultaneously experiencing a little of his playfulness. Because he is so deeply dedicated to his craft, I think he often keeps the two separate. What I mean is, when G.O is singing he is perhaps in a completely different mind and heart space. He simply does not seem like the type to make light of his passion. But every now and then we can catch him mingling the two. I share a really quick playful moment today from the SBS Korean variety/comedy program, People Looking For Laughter.

I interrupt regular scheduling programming to bring you a well-overdue bromance moment. Yes, can you believe it has been over two hundred days since I last had a World According to G.OMir moment here on the countdown? I cannot deny that I have become increasingly sidetracked and have a tendency to overindulge on certain sub-categories, focused cams, pictures, .gifs and of course, G.O’s voice. It is the nature of this beast of a series. In a random search I came across a recording of one of the many visits G.O and Mir made to No Hong Chul’s Chin Chin Radio broadcast. As expected, never a dull moment with these two.

Okay, I am beginning to understand the recipe here ~ if we continue to challenge the probability of G.O updating, he very well may continue to rise to that challenge. <haha> Okay, I know it does not actually work that way, but it is fun to entertain the idea that G.O is feeling our collective anticipation for continued, steady and sigh-inducing updates, and the universe then conspires to make it happen. I don’t know what kind of strange magic is at play, but I am thrilled that G.O continues to spoil us. His latest posted last night is yet another sweet (and gorgeous) September selca.

Has anyone else been taking long strolls along Blaq Style street as of late? Blaq Style has been wooing me recently and I have been finding myself listening to the album exclusively as well as foraging the internet for pictures and cams. Apart from the eclectic blend of music on the album itself, the visuals that accompanied it in both MVs and public performances were simultaneously powerful and sensual. G.O settling into a softer look proved to be even more lethal when coupled with the fierce on stage performances of Oh Yeah and Stay. So in the interest of not giving you too much sensory overload, I offer two short G.O-focused cam clips from MBLAQ’s performance at the Wonju Oak Valley event on 5 February 2011.

The Soulful Countdown to G.O’s Discharge ~ Day 587

Today, it is quite simple. It is Tuesday and Tuesdays are generally unremarkable. If you work a typical corporate office job like I do, Tuesday is only the second day of the work week and still seems so far from the weekend. Really, there is only one way to give Tuesday a boost and I think the best option is a blast of explosive super sexy G.O circa the Cry era. It is a G.O One Shot day and it would be unfair to limit myself to only one shot today.
