f(x) comes out with “Chu~♡”

fx_2009114

And a little snippet of “Step By Me” too.

f(x) new single “Chu~♡” is here! “Chu~♡” is an autotune heavy, midtempo dance track that is in the same vein as their first single, “LA chA TA“.

f(x) has yet to really wow me. It seems like they have the performing prowess (and SME backing) to really rise above the competition, but their marketing image seems kind of limp to me. They could be promoting songs with more oomph.

Nonetheless, it’s not a bad outing for f(x). Check “Chu~♡” out~

Also, an audio teaser for another track on the single album, “Step By Me”, was revealed. I personally like the light melody of this song more than “Chu~♡”, but from just the teaser, the song doesn’t have enough dynamism like “Chu~♡” to be promoted.

    Mediocre at best, yet again.

  4. 5 CandyGirl89 November 5, 2009 at 4:21 am

    bull i posted the video and said chu is garbage in the other thread.

  5. 10 china November 5, 2009 at 4:37 am

    Whoever produce those music for Fx should be shot to death. Girls pretty but songs keep getting worst. What the hell is wrong with SM

  6. 11 janna09 November 5, 2009 at 4:47 am

    no good…what the heck, they need good composers or just buy a song just like genie.

  7. 12 ukiss501 November 5, 2009 at 5:43 am

    i dont like it. :/
    either of them.

  8. 13 Se7enthSin November 5, 2009 at 5:51 am

    Chu is just ok. Step By Me sucks!!!!
    Love the short girl wearing rolling skates in the pix.

  9. 14 doubleDUH! November 5, 2009 at 6:15 am

    its sucky song lol it has that lachata feel to it too lol

  10. 15 kaleneyy November 5, 2009 at 6:39 am

    luna has to be on roller blades to be the same height as the rest of the group lmao…

  11. 16 lalah November 5, 2009 at 6:47 am

    Love both songs! I really wish they would promote “Mr. Boogie!”

  12. 17 xlinhx November 5, 2009 at 7:07 am

    wtf…lol, i think i still prefer snsd o.O
    but where is the “bomb” like expected…haha, is SM specialized on disapoointing fans these days?
    probably they are busy filing the lawsuit against dbsk to promote their other artists :/

  13. 18 Teresa November 5, 2009 at 7:26 am

    ehhh they’re ok. not catchy. :( and i really liked lachata.

  14. 19 Mira November 5, 2009 at 7:45 am

    The song isn’t that good. If these girls didn’t belong to SM then nobody would care for them…

  15. 20 Lindaaa November 5, 2009 at 7:46 am

    somehow i feel like they got more potential than this. it’s not “HOT”, but hopefully they’ll get a better producer or sumthing.

  16. 21 Jagne November 5, 2009 at 8:28 am

    I still don’t know how they are ahead of 2ne1 when all their songs pretty much suck.

    • 22 hsksk November 5, 2009 at 8:39 am

      i know right ??
      im not even a fan of 2ne1
      but i swear, why in the world is f(x) ahead of 2ne1 in those polls for MAMA and GDA
      haha, honestly speaking BOTH SONG SUCKS BIGTIME !!!!

      • 23 November 5, 2009 at 9:38 am

        also cuz of amber…shes really popular..

        anyways in my opinion…there are like, two parts in the song that are good (chu) the rest it craaaaaaap D:

        and step by me or whatever is horrible! im SO dissapointed! ah! i actually like their other three songs!! speecially mr.boogie…… ;-;

    • 24 ALYN November 5, 2009 at 9:09 am

      Because SM fans of other groups have the numbers and they’re voting for them.

  17. 25 WHAT TIME IS IT? IT'S 2PM! November 5, 2009 at 9:20 am

    they are ahead of 2ne1 because since they are part of sm entertainmnet, of course all of the singers in sm has sooooo many fans all of them. also krystal is jessicas sister in snsd which is snsd the girl group that has the most fans.

    • 26 psssh. November 7, 2009 at 8:40 am

      It’s sad that people are voting for not the SONG they think it the best – which is what this is supposed to be – but for the artists who are in the same company as these people’s favorite artist.

      Isn’t this supposed to be about music? Come on, Korea.

  18. 27 aeyc November 5, 2009 at 9:41 am

    So So. Chu~♡ sounds like Britney Spears for me.

  19. 28 Jay November 5, 2009 at 10:02 am

    ugh. I’m not digging it.
    f(x) is really not appealing to me
    with their songs.

  20. 29 Atramentous Love November 5, 2009 at 10:02 am

    >.> Worthless song, really not worth the hype. I don’t hear anything except for the auto-tune. They also messed up Amber’s rap with some weird synthesizing. Yeah, where I come from, this is called…

    E-P-I-C F-A-I-L

  21. 30 seriously? November 5, 2009 at 10:09 am

    f(x) is ahead on polls thanks to their sunbaes! but the group does not live up to the hype! a total disappointment…

    “Chu~♡” is an autotune heavy — exactly! i wanna hear their real voices!!!

    i hope they won’t rush their next single/album… this one really sucks big time!

  22. 31 kelly November 5, 2009 at 10:39 am

    only 3 songs in the album? they’re just lucky because sm fans voting on them even though their songs were so boring.

  23. 32 whoa its me November 5, 2009 at 11:16 am

    the first is okaybut CANT WAIT FOR THE SECONDbtw when does tae yang’s song wedding dress come out?

  24. 33 ... November 5, 2009 at 11:19 am

    haizzz this group is so overrated. The rap part is super bad. The “do it chu” part with Krystal’s voice [i guess] is super annoying. It’s sad that they are ahead of 2NE1 just bcuz of the company and relationship with SNSD. haizzzzz it would be very very disappointing if 2NE1 lose to these girls in those awards. I think 4minute, T-ara are all much better than them. THose 3 groups have actual talents or at least good songs, unlike f(x). F(x) only has 1 average song that couldnt make any wave in the charts and now this crappy album. Their vocals are not as good as other groups’. Their rapper is at the bottom of the list of Kpop rappers.

    sorry it’s harsh. but it’s wat i think

  25. 34 kelly November 5, 2009 at 11:32 am

    voting is just 20 percent..

  26. 35 Babboo November 5, 2009 at 11:50 am

    it sounds like la cha ta with some cords changed and a faster tempo. can’t they sing something with a different formula? la cha ta..la chu ta…maybe a song named lata would be next. everything is just a play on la cha ta

  27. 37 jcamore November 5, 2009 at 12:09 pm

    i seriouslyy think they need me to dress them up

  28. 38 123grr November 5, 2009 at 12:24 pm

    They officially took the most overrated rookie crown in kpop. And with the songs SM are churning out for them, it looks like they’re gonna wear the crown for a freakin looooooooooooong time. They have potential, but why is SM giving them mediocre songs time after time?

  29. 39 doubleDUH! November 5, 2009 at 12:43 pm

    fx wow man they ahead of 2ne1 anyways not shock but they friggin song sux sorry to be harsh but true!

    2ne1 hwaiting!

  30. 41 psssh. November 5, 2009 at 1:21 pm

    These girls are sh1t. Their song, their look, their faces. They’re a wasteland.

    BORING BORING BORING. It’s not SM, it’s just that these girls have no personality to pull off any songs. 2NE1 isn’t too great, either, but they’re a fckton better than these clowns.

  31. 42 trippi November 5, 2009 at 1:41 pm

    LOL at LUNA wearing the roller blades.
    now she’s just as tall as the others. HAHAHA

  32. 43 hee tae November 5, 2009 at 1:50 pm

    yay! love love love love!

  33. 44 SandraJun November 5, 2009 at 1:57 pm

    i have no comment yet i got a feeling that this group is just a typical group… maybe they should work harder.

    2NE1 IS BETTER
    WONDER GIRLS IS THE BEST

  34. 45 BEASTY2PM November 5, 2009 at 4:45 pm

    well, f(x) is ahead of 2NE1 cos they’re obviously better. it’s not about the songs, or their styles. it’s whether you appeal to the audience or not. why are peopel comparing, anyway?

    to me, 2NE1 started off great. but they got really bad later on.

    • 46 lala November 5, 2009 at 6:05 pm

      f(x) is better =)) =)) that’s one of the most funny thing i’ve ever heard. They sure look better but about talent hmmm i haven’t seen much. Their style is also not that awesome and actually i’m not sure what’s their style. one time they follow sexy and now it’s like cutesy. About vocals, except for Dara, the rest of 2NE1 all got better voices than f(x) and their rappers are also better than f(x) so-called rapper Amber

    • 47 Hahha!!! November 6, 2009 at 12:24 am

      Are U Trying to act blind, deaf and retarded!!! This song is really the worst ever… and saying their ahead of 2NE1 is ahahhaha!!!! Stupidly “PATHETIC”… F(x) is so overrated, and these dumb and sickly songs proves it again… If they weren’t from SM, they would b really F(x)= 0 = Zero… And listen at how Amber raps… OMG!!! It’s so ugly, she should have used her ass to play forced farting so that it would sound a little better… She is way down and away from CL…
      And when did they end up bad and unappealing… Was that the time when Dara’s Kiss grabbed #1 in kpop charts or was it at the time when Bom’s “You & I” killed all charts in KPOP where once again 2Ne1 proves themselves being the top
      Girl group fr this year…

      As for me… Lachata was really oh so deafeated by “I don’t care & Fire” and this Chu Chu thingy is OMG again!!!! Ugly as what F(x) could offer… Hahaha!!! Can’t say more ugly things bcuz this song and F(x) will always be uglier than this… Hahahhaha!!!

  35. 48 Cappuccino. November 5, 2009 at 5:51 pm

    What’s with Sulli’s fashion of a cap, dress, and shoes? :/ Someone seriously needs to dress them up right.

    Meh. Song sucks. Shouldn’t continue listening to them anymore.

  36. 49 Katsuyu November 5, 2009 at 6:07 pm

    This songs should be at the top of the Trash!!!! So mediocre!!! Is this the song they call the Europe Thingy that was said to be a trend there,…. Oh my… Europeans must have some kind of musical recession if they play
    musical tunes like this… And Amber rapped like blah..blah!!! So annoyingly ugly!!! They’d better go home and continue studying!!! Their not the Big AsianStuff after all… Just what SM claims to be… or dreams to be… and ended in a nightmare!

  37. 50 Katsuyu November 5, 2009 at 6:10 pm

    Is this a song… Sounds like fart to me!!!!

    • 51 slippers November 6, 2009 at 5:41 am

      You made me laugh. I think it is a waste of money to buy their mini-album with only 3 songs. The songs and this group are just all hype but no substance.

  38. 52 =O= November 5, 2009 at 9:19 pm

    ==!donno how 2 explain ….. very bad=O=

  39. 53 xmhmu5slove November 6, 2009 at 5:07 am

    The beat to “chu” is catchy! but yeah, i’d have to agree that their songs are getting worse.

  40. 54 LalaNYC November 6, 2009 at 8:17 am

    Step By Me sounds like a holiday song. A little too early for christmas, maybe? Chu~ isnt as catchy as their first song. LaChaTa!~ Good luck to you ladies~ F(x)

  41. 55 jamekao November 7, 2009 at 3:23 am

    oh that new video of (fx) is attractive

  42. 56 MBLAQLOVER November 11, 2009 at 3:38 am

    WHAT THE HELL DID THEY DO WITH AMBER’S HAIR? LOL
