"Everybody" is a K-pop song of the complextro music genre performed by the South Korean boy group Shinee. Written by Cho Yoon-kyung, two versions of "Everybody" exist: the original Korean-language version, which served as the lead single for the group's fifth Korean EP Everybody (2013), and a Japanese-language version, which was one of the three tracks featured on their ninth Japanese single "3 2 1" (2013). The Korean version of "Everybody" was made available for download on October 14, 2013, under the record label of SM Entertainment.[1]

Composition

[edit]

"Everybody" was composed by Thomas Troelsen, who had worked on prior Shinee tracks "Sherlock (Clue + Note)" (2012) and "Love Like Oxygen" (2008), and Coach & Sendo, enlisted for their beat-making expertise. The lyrics were penned by Cho Yoon-kyung, who also wrote "Sherlock (Clue + Note)". It is a complextro song with a "funky" rhythm and dubstep elements.[2][3] Writing for Billboard, Jeff Benjamin described it as an "easy-to-digest electro-pop track", incorporating "bleeps, bloops, build-ups and breakdowns" overlaid by "sweet boy band harmonies".[3] The lyrics are inspired by the Pied Piper; Shinee coaxes the listener to allow the music to take them away from the harsh realities of adult life to the world of their childhood.[4]

Music video

[edit]

The music video was released on October 10, 2013. It was directed by Jang Jae-hyuk and filmed on a set in Ilsan at the end of September. Jang stated that various techniques and equipment like the steadicam, technocrane and camera matrix were used to film the music video.[5] The choreography of the song was created by Tony Testa, who had previously collaborated with the group on "Sherlock (Clue + Note)" and "Dream Girl" (2013), assisted by Hwang Sang-hoon, SM Entertainment's performance director.[6] Testa said he was "continually amending the dance because the track went through so many changes", and took inspiration from the action figures he used to play with as a child. The video depicts Shinee as toy soldiers, with Minho "winding up" the other members.[7] The group wore military uniforms designed by Thom Browne.[8]

Critical reception

[edit]

Billboard K-Town columnist Jeff Benjamin wrote "while finding a delicous balance of hyperactive EDM and pop stylings is commendable, the most impressive point of Shinee's "Everybody" comeback is the choreography – some of 2013's best".[3]

Live performances

[edit]

The first live performance of "Everybody" was included in the set-list of the Shinee Comeback Special at the Gangnam Hallyu Festival on October 6, 2013, in Samseong-dong, Seoul. The performances were streamed on SM Town's YouTube channel.[2] The first broadcast live performance, however, was through Mnet's music show M Countdown on October 10, 2013.[9] This was followed by performances at KBS Music Bank on October 11,[10] MBC Show! Music Core on October 12,[11] SBS Inkigayo on October 13,[12] and MBC Music Show Champion on October 16, 2013.[13]

Japanese version

[edit]

The Japanese version was included as one of the three tracks on their ninth Japanese single "3 2 1", which was released on December 4, 2013, under the distributing label of Universal Music Japan.[14]
