As if the title “Rainism” wasn’t bad enough. Rain is re-releasing his album “Rainism” with a new title - Rainism Recollection. What is so different you ask? Simple, it’s just a bunch of different versions of the original songs already on the album. We’ve got “Love Story” in Japanese, Mandarin, and English, the acoustic versions of “12th September” and “My Woman,” and an urban mix of “Fresh Woman.” There’s also a DVD which comes with the 35-minute movie of “Love Story.” 35 minutes? I don’t think I can really sit through that. The music video was hilarious as it was already. I didn’t understand the plot much at all except the fact that Rain played a freeloader in some poor girl’s apartment. How that’s going to stretch into 35 minutes… Well, we’ll just have to see.

But Rainism Recollection does have its perks. Besides the two discs with 22 songs and the 35-minute movie, there’s also a photobook. If there’s one thing Rain is good for it’s having a sexalicious body so that’s something to look forward to. I’m not so sure about the cover though. I’m not feeling the whole white outfit with the bowtie. Also there’s the fact that it’s just him with water and a random boat in the background. Come on Rain, you can be more badass than that. I don’t want to have to go through another poster hunt only to find that there was only an abundance of Rainism posters again.

Since Rainism Recollection is a limited edition CD, there will only be 30,000 copies released on March 5th. Well, if anyone wants that photobook badly, you better go get it. I don’t see what else is really that interesting about it.

Ha ha! I felt that he did make the effort but it was sloppy. Listen to the English version of Love Story. WTF was that? At least it was English and not Engrish but the lyrics were silly and the beginning makes me cringe since it sounds off to me. But, ah well.

Exactly. He talks about growing up and moveing on… becoming an adult.. but becoming an adult means you know what you speak of.. and lyrics are just that. He needed tightness in his english lyrics and he didnt have that.. it made most westernized fans wonder if the fobbishness would last.


Doesn’t sound like much of a CD to me.

I have to give props to rain though. He did embark on Rainism as a true solo project writing the lyrics and even composing the songs himself. This is something he never did before so for a first try its pretty good.

But I long for the old days of the JYP inspired Rain. The one who interpretted the words of the master.

I see Rains potential though and I wish him well. I really would like him to try and get comfortable using English in song aas well as speaking. He just doesn’t seem like he likes English to communicate and that is understandable for someone who has a very korean soul.

However yeah I was there when we embarked on our poster search and UM.. no more rainism ones please!


What a stupid CD. i mean its cool that it has new stuff but nothing worth buying.


He announced it pretty late...It’s like 5 days away now.


lol! Summer supposedly.


When does his movie come out again? lol This has probably been asked a million times.


lol So many albums in March!


A lot of albums to buy in March!


I think so but no idea! haha


Eh I’m kind of sick of Rainism. haha He needs to change up his game! Wasn’t he suppose to work on an American debut album?


And here I was hoping for something new…
