IU’s “Growing Up” is a good album. She has a lot of talent that is completely wasted in the biz. She actually knows music, which is a rarity within the pool of brainkilling idols that she’s always up against. It’s a losing battle because she’ll never shine where it matters. I don’t know why her management dumbs her down to make her more acceptable to the mainstream, because it’s not gaining her any more fans than when she performed music with artistic merit. “Marshmallow” is an insult to her intelligence, especially because she’s capable of something like this:
This:
And this:
Give this performance something on the grand scale of Big Bang’s “Lies” from the 2007 MKMFs and it’d make for an amazing concert performance.
This is an acoustic version from the album:

right, they’re not her songs, she’s just re-inventing them, but it’s not like the basis of her artistic merit is only because she can cover songs nicely. her album is full of great mellow stuff that is as good, if not better, than stuff like “sorry sorry” or “gee.” that’s why i said her management is wasting her talent bc i doubt she chooses which of her own songs to perform.
