THE BOYZ has covered a lot of concepts throughout their career, but there’s something about this brand of high-energy music that they pull off like no other. “THRILL RIDE” utilizes a cool carnival-style melody that’s totally addictive, especially when combined with their smooth vocals and rap.

9. TWICE – “Signal”

“Signal” is definitely one of TWICE’s most unique tracks, both in terms of style and sound. The music video is a little out-there, with a green extraterrestrial and a plot twist that’s pretty memorable. Music video aside, though, the song is some good light-hearted fun with a super catchy tagline.
