In the teaser article, I listed T-ara N4's Countryside Life as the song I was most anticipating and the MV was semi-hard erection on the flaccidity scale. Somehow I was right, but for reasons that I didn't expect. The review is after the jump.
Upon first listening to the song, I facepalmed myself. If I had known Duble Sidekick was going to follow the trend of mashing 4 songs together, I would have preferred another Bo Peep Bo Peep/Roly Poly/Sexy Love/Lovey Dovey instead of this. I was about to give up on the song...until I paid attention to the lyrics.
Yes, where this song shines is the lyrics. While every other idol song ever is always about love, this song is a big "fuck you" to their haters. T-ara's metaphorical balls are so big that Randy would be jealous.
While there are already translations out there for these lyrics, I took it upon myself to translate them for you guys. The main reason is that the translated lyrics from the others out there are too tame. This is a big fuck you song, so I thug-ified the lyrics a bit while still making the translation accurate.
Why (Why) Why (Why) Why
[Ah! Fuck off]
Why (Why) Why (Why) Why
[Ah! Fuck off]
Every Monday that comes around is very annoying
Day in and day out, why are you holding onto me?
Please stop spewing the bullshit that I don't wanna hear
I'm out of here
To the Countryside Life
Woo~
Come to me, hold my hand, leave with me~
[Party People~]
Just enjoy your damn life
Dance throughout the night
Set aside your worries (Fuck off)
Turn off all of your phones
Empty your heads
Wash your damn feet or something; just go to fucking sleep already

Not much of a fucking sight, omo, that's what I think
Not much of a fucking sight, omo, that's what I think
I'll handle it, you have no business with me
Without even knowing shit, damn, that's what I think
But why, I'm living just fine, what's with you butting in
Look who's talking
Hush for a minute! Stop giving a fuck about me
When living becomes a bit annoying
To the Countryside Life
Come to me, hold my hand, leave with me~

Distressed and wounded hearts
One by one all of them will be embraced in my chest and they'll live
Don't worry
And even the cold wind goes by~

Usually the music carries the lyrics in an idol song, but this is the very first time where I have enjoyed the lyrics to an idol song, and I love how T-ara is directing this song at their haters. It allows me to "accept" the mess that the actual music and arrangement is. SNSD's I Got Multiple Personality Disorder is one of the most popular articles on AKF, so everyone should know how I feel about four songs being mashed together. SNSD's and 4minute's songs are four pieces of shit thrown into a blender and coming out of Shindong's ass before being packaged into a "song". T-ara N4's Countryside Life at least has some transitions in the song, and thankfully so, since it's nowhere near as jarring as the song suddenly stopping and Jessica saying "Bring it back to 4/20."
Lastly, the three T-ara members looked good, which is always a great thing when watching a girl group MV.
