i think i can safely say that its my favorite Big Bang's song of the year.
Love Song is a very special song with a very untypical mv. strictly speaking, i don't think walking around constitutes to any part of forming a plot and unlike those plotless mvs that focus on every different member and changes scenes every few seconds, this mv felt as if it was done in a very perfect one shot. and like what Eat Your Kimchi mentioned, this mv really consists of a lot of symbolism depending on how you view it.
i think that the black and white tone of the mv is a absolutely ingenious idea. it builds up the depressing feeling brought about by the ruins and further emphasized the downcast mood. also the inability to properly discern any other colors other than black and grey is a revelation of the magnitude of sadness which made the world. in my opinion, the setting of this mv is a reflection of the mind of a person after being hurt by his loved one. the ruined and undesirable state of the settings is like how he would be feeling at that moment. broken and beyond repair. furthermore, i think it is further emphasized by the fact that the Big Bang members walked without interacting with each other. like despite having a different story and being different beings, the outcome of break up is still technically similar. it seems to be suggesting that this is a phase that everyone faces after they got dumped by their loved ones.
by the way, i absolutely love the fire at random places and the last car explosion scene. for me, the car explosion scene is a sign that the persona in the mv had finally start to recover. rather than the fire that have been burning, the explosion is more intense and can you imagine having a mind explosion? it will undoubtably bring you back to your senses and to me it is a sign of burning the past away.
for the lyrics, i absolutely adored the i hate this love song chant by GD. it is super hypnotic, even if you forget how the whole songs sounds like, you'll always remember this line. the intensity seems to be increasing with every line of i hate this love song, and the first time i heard it, i expected an outburst of emotions but instead it sort of died down with the last line. at first, i couldn't really understand why, but now, i think it fits the emotion flow of the song a lot and its wonderfully done.
so, i really feel that its an amazing song that i love a lot. and its kinda a miracle i managed to find a song i like so intensely since i've issues with quite a lot of songs that were released this year.
anyway, all the opinions above are mine (: readers don't have to agree with me (:
