The Best Songs You've Never Heard By: After School


People are often familiar with the songs that are featured in music videos for groups. However there are a number of really good songs that people miss because they never check out the groups full track list on their albums.

(The songs listed are of course based off of nothing more then my personal preference. However they might be worth checking out if you want to hear another side of a certain artist you never knew existed.)

[These songs may not be songs of musical genius, but they are different from the normal songs presented by the groups main tracks and worth listening to. Also please note my descriptive skills of the song aren't the greatest but hopefully they are enough to intrigue you into checking them out.]

AFTER SCHOOL




With U : This just has a different feel from all their other songs.




Wristwatch : After School is really known for their sexy songs but they have some really nice slow songs.




Love Beat : This has a real club like vibe to it.

Dressing Room : Love this song, yes there are a lot of vocal filters used, but it just adds to the song.



AFTER SCHOOL (Japanese songs)



Gimme Love : It sounds like a title track song.

Miss Futuristic : It is super repetitive, super auto-tuned, and super addictive.



ORANGE CARAMEL

I'll be honest I was not a big fan of Orange Caramel's songs from just watching their music videos. The only one I slightly liked was Lipstick. I was however very surprised at the range of songs their album had. See this is a the exact reason you should check out a groups track list since you may not like their title tracks but you may really like their other songs.



Bubble Bath : This has an electronic sound to it.

Not Yet : When I think Orange Caramel I think funky and a bit crazy so to hear a ballad it's a nice surprise.

Superwoman : This is a great song it has a nice beat.

Clara's Dream : Such a simple and lovely song.

Close Your Eyes : This song really show of their vocals.


(I was going to put the Youtube links to these song but it is too time consuming and the links sometimes get taken down so you're on your own to search for them. P.S. Most of these songs are on itunes)
