Musicians react & review ♡ Xdinary Heroes - Good Enough (MV)

This is HANDS DOWN the best unexpected sound from Xdinary so far!!!

Absolutely stunning - the visuals, the vocal, the music itself - everything was perfection in the way it was set up and delivered, from the way the album built up to this moment and subverted all expectations, to it being an incredible acoustic piece regardless, it's just all around the best way to experience this switch of a sound from Xdinary, and we're more than happy about it.

We knew going in that Good Enough might be something special since many people have mentioned this one to us in the past, but we never expected it to be in THIS direction. Honestly, this makes it better, and we now wish they'd do more acoustic sounds in the future. It suits them SO WELL :D Anyways, we're almost done with the album - so let's keep it comin!!

Kpop producers and singer-songwriters react to Xdinary Heroes' Good En ough (Music Video). Enjoy!

This was so unexpected and we're in love. What did you think about Good Enough when you first heard it?! :D

[marthaferguson]

Even if you don’t react to it, you should watch the Hello 82 live version of it because it does a much better job of showcasing the powerful vocal points where the video is more visual. And you can see JunHan in it where he was sick while filming the video.

I love XH for how crazy and alternative their sound is but this song took me back to my soft rock strong vocal days and it stole my heart. DEAR H. is its sibling in my opinion and just as beautiful. Just so proud of the range on these boys.

[pratfallpratt]

I knew you'd both be blown away by this one! My jaw was on the floor for a full 10 minutes the first time I heard it. I totally 2nd all recommendations to check out the live version they did for hello82, it's magical.

For background, yes Junhan couldn't be in the music video unfortunately. Poor guy got a really bad stomach bug at the start of this comeback so he missed the first couple weeks of it, and I suspect they waited to film the mv until the last minute to gauge the reaction to the song on streaming first.

Dear H is like a sibling song, with a mv filmed at the same time and also being a mournful ballad but with a little more of a soft rock style.

If u didn't catch it, it's their first song all in English. Gunil wrote it, and he lived in the US from middle school to college. He based it on a poem he wrote at Berkelee College of Music while nursing a broken heart. His pain is our gain tho lol. And good thing u mentioned Day6, bc YoungK helped him with the writing as well!

[nacelesilva]

This song was written by Gunil first as a small poem he did for someone he was in love with in the past and the lyrics are so beautiful and sad at the same time. I hope you can check the live performance someday! ❤ Want you to know about their first OST song Wego Wego that was released a few days ago for a webtoon! I hope you can react to that one too!

I usually click pretty fast when you guys drop a video, but I have never clicked so fast before. This is literally my favorite song by Xdinary Heroes. I sing it at the TOP of my voice every sing time. I have zero vocal ability, but I would go get singing lessons, start a band just to sing this song. I loved them before, but HOLY MOLY, this song destroyed me. I HATE how little views this song has in comparison to their other videos. This song should have garnered much more attention than it got. The VOCALS are unmatched as far as I am concerned. I can die happy if I could see this performed live.

[poppyfortea]

God help anyone nearby when this shuffles on while I'm driving, because I sing along loudly and enthusiastically, and a singer I am not. I'm sure there are dogs with perforated eardrums.

[hanjisvillain]

Good Enough is my favorite song since the first time I heard it, and maybe you feel a little bit of Day6's influence because YoungK wrote the song with Gunil

[thylionheart]

XH are so underrated; they’re so skilled and talented and I love how beautifully their vocals shine on this song! It’s such an emotional track too, so full of yearning and desperation. I love it!

[egnisa]

My favourite xdinary heroes song by far. And probably in my top 10 ever. And I’m from 1972…

[zaubera]

When this album dropped, I had this song on repeat. So did my daughter. And I think a lot of villains must have done the same as I remember it had more streams on Spotify than the title track. To this day, the song remains my favorite…though Again? Again! Almost pushed it out. Good Enough makes me tear up every time I listen. It’s just that good.
And btw, speaking of Day6, I’m sure you know now, that YoungK helped out on this song. Also, what about a reaction to THEIR new comeback that dropped yesterday….😅
Thanks for your continued wonderful

[lisarose]

I'm so excited to see your reaction to Dear H now, xdinary heroes are so extremely talented they can take any direction

[pushniqa]

Aaah good enough is an amazing song. Speaking from an outsiders perspective, cause im not a villain, but this song is just chefs kiss

[stayberrylatte]

i had the privilege of seeing XDH live and when i tell you this song absolutely took over my entire body. i couldn't hold back my tears and i had chills the entire time they're so amazing and never stop surprising me with the music they release. thank you for reacting!

[YoAdrienneMT]

I love this song so much! This song was written by Gunil and Day6’s Young K.
I can’t wait until the day I get to hear this while at a concert of theirs. I’m going to be singing it at the top of my lungs. 🤞🏻

[nebu_vintage]

AS a stay, supporting these boys is a must for me, I'm so mad at the world cs they are CRAZILY talented 😭

[kimbraswain]

I listen to this nonstop. It's so freaking good.

[potatocho]

Interesting that you pointed out how similar it is to DAY6 since Young K worked with the boys on this one, particularly on the lyrics 🩵

[angiepangiee]

You should listen to good enough live on killing voice, they sound the exact same it’s insane, their singing abilities are crazy

[leanemayne]

Love, love, love this song. I was blown away when I first heard it. As others have suggested watching the Hello 82 performance is something I hope you do, whether you react to it or watch it on your own. As much as I love the MV I much prefer the Hello 82 performance, I'm usually holding my breath by the end of it because it such a beautiful and emotional performance. You can literally see the emotion they pour into it while performing it.
I'm also looking forward to your reaction to Dear H. Another amazing song.
