With five million views in the first ten hours of its release, “Tamed-Dashed” is right up there in the upper echelon of a genre that consistently breaks records for stats when it comes to views and downloads. It is also in the top 5 for new releases in the iTunes downloads charts. It is a much anticipated return for a group that commands a large and loyal fanbase, many of whom have taken to the comments section to explore others to continue streaming and sharing the song in order to boost the group up to the top and in contention with the giants of the genre: “Engenes let’s not lose hope just because 24 hours had already passed. Let’s keep streaming and motivate ourselves for them to win on music shows. Fighting! Let’s go!!!”
The video drops on the same day that the group released their 10th studio album DIMENSION : DILEMMA, along with an official music video for the title track. “Tamed-Dashed,” which isn’t an immediately comprehensible title, is a new wave piece with guitar and synth layers that showcase the vibes of the 1980s. The lyrics express a particular dilemma: should the boys let themselves either be “tamed” or “dashed” by the girls around them. A long list of hit-making producers contributed to the track and album and it is hitting the right note with fans.
For the music video, the members of the group are pictured in a school and then on a beach, captured in summer love and all its potential heartbreak. One fan commented that the tone is slightly off: “So basically, enha is really in a different dimension.. because they’re still stuck in summer and we’re almost in winter.”
