Musicians react & analyze ♡ SEVENTEEN - THE8's ORBIT (MV)

THE8 = WALKING ART One of the most recommended solo tracks from our Patrons & YouTube fam. Guess what? It’s THE8’s ‘ORBIT’! Since we already listened to ‘SKYFALL’, we assumed ‘ORBIT’ would also be EDM just from the title. But holy shxt! Afro vibes!? Definitely not what we expected. THE 8’s dreamy voice, paired with those hypnotic moves, legit feels like he’s casting a spell on us. On top of his insane musicality, the gorgeous music video made ‘ORBIT’ a straight-up masterpiece. Dang, we seriously need more THE 8 tracks in our lives. Question of the day: Do you prefer ‘Orbit’ or ‘Skyfall’? Drop your thoughts in the comments! Like we say in the video, if you wish to have fun with our SEVENTEEN Marathon with other SVT contents like 'Game Caterers' and 'Going Seventeen', hop on and join the party at http://patreon.com/handsomesausages !! :D Kpop producer and singer-songwriter react to SEVENTEEN - THE8's ORBIT (Official Music Video).

Finally...i'm so happy thank you D'some & Han'c

Thunder Monkey

Yes it feels the same spirit as Skyfall. Trance state for sure!!! Its good to sooth blood pressure. The8 is known for his daily meditation practices and tea ceremonies, his music takes me to his soul place when he is under that influence. Yaaaay, our the8 took HS to his special place.

Thank you for reacting to this so quickly, wasn't expecting it so soon! I would say musically Minghao is my bias in Seventeen, I just love his voice and the mood he creates in his solo tracks. I agree with D'some that while different in genre, Skyfall and Orbit do still feel similar in a way, maybe just with the whole ambiance/enchanting quality that Minghao brings. His songs are so captivating and immersive to me, and I feel like he is one of the members that has a clearer musical identity/sound. If you want more The8 tracks I would definitely recommend completing this EP, there are two other tracks on it including one featuring Vernon. Also, my personal favourite solo of his is Hai Cheng so would love to see a reaction to that as well!

Orbit is actually part of The8’s first EP “Stardust” which comprises of two more songs, 54321 (feat. Vernon) and Cold Love. Both are amazing as well and each song gives off different vibes. While Orbit is more ethereal, 54321 is more vibey and Cold Love makes you feel longing like it’s embedded in your soul. Meanwhile, he also has another iconic solo called Side by Side. It has a Korean and Chinese ver and it has an MV as well. This one is more dance pop and it’s a really great listen! Makes you want to groove while listening 😌 There’s also Hai Cheng! It’s such a feel good song and listening to it with The8’s voice just makes it even better.

He's so artistic in everything he does, I can believe he was headlining a festival a few hours ago, I'm so proud 🙂‍↕️

han'c's "wooauauauh~😨" took me outttt 😭😭😭

Sarah_SVT

Yes orbit and skyfall are very free space feeling trance state songs. I love how you have listened to these now go and listen to side by side 😂😂 For me Falling Down is masterpiece. He didn’t just write the song and produce it but it’s one of his contemporary art pieces that he choreographed! Highly recommend watching

Sam sam (Lan zhan)

and YES both skyfall and orbit have that otherworldly ethereal feel to them, could be just a the8 thing cause that’s very much his style but still I can see how they have similar feelings connected to them? it’s definitely a vibe thing more than technical but both matters!! :D

Dawndream

i see others have already recommended side by side and the b-sides for stardust EP that were released with orbit, so i will recommend one that was just recently released, called star crossing night ft GALI!

My fav solo from The 8 is Hai Cheng MV (chinese) https://youtu.be/C_eSHj7W54E?si=OmYoJR_hpW0G4L88 Special video (korean version) https://youtu.be/UGlDJ2ONDZs?si=urqe9UNLLqJPpIfv 17:terview https://youtu.be/I5ra1u8OdyI?si=5lntFHyZjEXjo-XU Inside Seventeen recording behind https://youtu.be/fWiVFbLbQ0w?si=nfc8Hm1tHyUneL9A MV behind https://youtu.be/E5kqfWIxTek?si=U2heRAyaTD22hkf- You can also check The 8 Contemporary Art https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz8s6QHVjP67qwfvoBSp3lOnUsKEtP1XC&si=QqnRNOJuJI8hfeVc

Falling Down is a masterpiece and you should absolutely react, but also Hai Cheng! I feel like it never gets brought up enough. Its one of my favorites and his vocals just shine, plus it's just an amazing song thats beautifully written

Emma.

We shouldn't forget the newest single Star Crossing Night as well....But my personal favorite is Hai Cheng (a balad). I hope you would end up checking the whole Stardust EP and all other The8 songs.

i love the8’s music so much! my favourite song of his is cold love which is another track from his stardust ep<3 also, apologies if you mentioned this in the video and i missed it (my puppy kept distracting me lol) but vernon actually did some backing vocals on this track as well! the “hey, heyyy” before the first chorus is him :)

ema - simplywoozis

if you think Orbit and Skyfall are like this, wait until you react to Hai Cheng, Dreams Come True, Side by Side, the rest of the Stardust EP, and his breathtaking series "THE8 Contemporary Art". He's a true artist and i'm sure it's going to blow your minds. He also has some OST for Chinese shows, a surprise indeed. I will leave some links if you're interested - Dreams Come True: https://youtu.be/pxTL3o9tJTo?si=iwTZGCQQAQIWAYkv lyrcis: https://youtu.be/WqWyyjJm3YE?si=vugNrX9xNba6M0I5 - Hai Cheng: https://youtu.be/C_eSHj7W54E?si=QCFWT9T-kVWYH6ym Korean Ver: https://youtu.be/UGlDJ2ONDZs?si=Mar7Qg3wjnfO3fj1 - Side by Side: https://youtu.be/e5bqgvfz84E?si=lYC8XZPz2bG9DDNh special video: https://youtu.be/oLllpjkEXPs?si=2eSwps7DeEgX9yI- - Falling Down: https://youtu.be/9fpxY6E8AfU?si=LJJU2goHZKFOFXpY lyrics: https://youtu.be/4PTVooLy33M?si=gQW_mnwPZD9tiCF4 - 本: https://youtu.be/MuEU0Kd_VP4?si=RIAijOgySNOsACDa - 54321 (Lift Off) feat.

Emma.

And a question - are you familiar with the rest of the people who worked on this song, except Vernon, of course

Quwarichi

The8 sort of said that Orbit is like the prototype of Skyfall. In Skyfall, he found his place with the EDM and DJing music, but you can really feel him looking for it in Orbit. Still it's able to stand on it's own and prove itself with both amazing visuals and music. The entire single album he made, with 54321 (Lift Off) and Cold Love being the b-sides that feel like their own kind of art. The whole album is fitting to the name (Stardust) and you can really feel it. Also I'm so glad that time in Game Caterers I thought to myself "D'Some keeps getting delighted by The8's mannerism he's going to end up biasing him" and I kind of predicted it. I really recommend his other solo works like Side by Side and Hai Cheng!

Fay

orbit😵‍💫 minghao’s discography is truly wild like wdym this man has songs and genres like orbit, skyfall, side by side and hai cheng under his belt???

Fay

btw vernon has lots of credits in the album and you can actually hear him in this song doing the “hey heyyyyy” before the chorus hits! he also featured on another song in the album called 54321 lift off.

I love Orbit so much, it has been my most replayed SVT solo for a while back when it first released. There's something so captivating and addicting in it even if it doesn't necessarily go "wild" musically. And it's a true reflection of Minghao himself and how he wants to be seen in the world. Pure art. I totally get the similar vibes/feel of Orbit and Skyfall too! When I first heard skyfall I felt like it was Orbit in EDM-steroids. But I do prefer Orbit between the two 😌😌 (also both of u biasing Minghao omg lmaooo and Han-C getting whiplashed by how sexy he is 😂😂 I cant wait for yall to get to more of his iconic and sassy moments in GoSe) The other comments already recommended his other solo tracks but I vote for finishing the rest of the EP!! 54321 (Lift off) and Cold Love have differen vibes as well but tie in well cohesively

Handsome Sausages

Definitely "know" them at this point as we've seen most of their names pop up here and there during our reactions, but not enough to say that we're familiar with their style! Robb Roy is probably the only one we're more familiar with now since he worked on a lot of SVT tracks we know AND some Woodz stuff as well!

CJ

I feel like Orbit is the bridge between the Performance team’s song Spell and Skyfall. The progression in the music makes sense when you start with Spell (amapiano), go into the Stardust songs, then get to Skyfall.

The8 = Art
