Whoa, waitasec, if that's the group I'm thinking of, I DID NOT RECOGNIZE HER AT ALL. Wow.

Keep tryin' lulz (even this nobody came closer to matching Godele)
(it was unfaircruel to give her that song to sing, even established divas can't hack it)
[/quote]
Doesn't sound bad to me.
But with her kind of voice she could never make it sound like the original anyway.
The audition person didn't seem better to me. Her tone is too high pitched and it strained my ears.
Also, REPLAYS WHILE SOMEBODY SINGS !? It never ceased to amaze me how annoying the editors of Korean shows are.

Suddenly, a new SNSD song and music video appears, called FLOWER POWER !

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I was expecting something cutsy with a name like Flower Power, so I'm pleasantly surprised. It's the same uninspired technopop the industry's been spitting out for years now, but I'll take that over the Nicki Minaj off-her-meds technopop I'm forced to listen to otherwise if I wanna dabble in mainstream stuff.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
SNSD's second Japanese album is out.
For me the standout tracks are I'm a Diamond, Reflection, and Stay Girls. Stay Girls in particular appeals to me because it looks back on the sense of youthful optimism, idealism, and indomitability that I thought Into the New World was about, based on its video (until I recently made the mistake of looking at a translation of the lyrics -- something I had studiously avoided for fear of precisely the disillusionment that I experienced). The originally leaked K-version of Boomerang was harder-hitting than the J-version on offer here, but it's listenable, as is Not Alone. Rounding out the new tracks are Animal [meh], Girls & Peace [meh-], and T.O.P. [not to my taste at all].
So... fewer good tracks than the first album, but the good ones are really good.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I feel so bad for them, having to try and find a way to make this ATROCIOUS choreography look even halfway decent. Seriously, Flower Power has some of the shittiest choreography I have ever seen. Even the formations are a train wreck.
I wish they'd get to sing live more often!

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
That would be the month before their Japanese tour, so I guess it won't be promoted much if it happens.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Their next album will (finally, again) be a Korean one, called "I Got A Boy" (who's going to leave in 9 months ?).
The first single is "Dancing Queen" and here's the MV:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lf8PB8KM_-c
Release dates are 1st & 2nd January.
Pretty cheap to just make a cover after having been absent from the Korean market for so long (at least in terms of mainly promoting a song in Korea). According to Taeyeonism.com the stuff for the video was mainly shot during the GEE era. Weird.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I don't think this is going to be the actual single, or at least that's what everyone is saying. Popular opinion seems to be that this is just an extra little treat and that the preview at the end is I Got A Boy, which will the actual single.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Here's a "drama" teaser and two concept photos for I got a boy:
http://taeyeonism.com/snsd-i-got-a-boy- ... up-photos/
My prediction for the MV: it's always the same dude and at the end they throw their purses at him, because they find out he's dating all of them. Thus, they stay pure and innocent waifus for the shippers.
EDIT:
And here's a dance version teaser:

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Based on the second teaser, I am tentatively optimistic. The song itself doesn't sound like the Genie 2.0 that I would like, but I could deal with some good, energetic choreography for once. They aren't wearing heels [strike]if we ignore the huge insoles[/strike], which I take as a very good sign.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I like how when SM says there might be a Korean album released soon they mean it's already finished, and when YG says there will be a Korean album released soon, it means there might maybe be a mini album or single release sometime in the next 2 years. Maybe. If the vernal equinox falls just right.
Damn it feels bad to be a 2NE1 fan.
I am kinda underwhelmed by the previews, but in all honesty I rarely love SNSD's album tracks. I'll wait until the full album's out to pass judgement. There were SOME promising bits. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hahaha.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':hahaha:' />

Well, this SNSD-comeback is bad for all fans of EXO out here.
This means we have to wait another while for them to comeback T__T
BUT! Now has SHINee, f(x), Super Junior, DBSK, SNSD and BoA made comeback...
...EXO's next? :D

No, I'm like 99% sure she actually got that short blonde cut after the initial wig for Hoot.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I Got a Boy MV
This is literally the worst song I have ever heard. Taeyeon looks like a rat, Yoona looks like an alligator, Yuri looks like a man. There is nothing redeeming about this, all I can do is laugh.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
You must have some fairly attractive rats and alligators where you live...
Anyway, this song has reminded me once again of why I am usually a pessimistic person. It wouldn't be nearly as annoying if they got rid of the intro "rap" portion and then spliced the midtempo and uptempo parts into two separate songs. I actually like the midtempo part (0:55-2:00 or so in the MV and the Taeny bridge), but unfortunately I think the uptempo part with the ear-piercing beat is meant to be the "real" song, insofar as that idea has any meaning whatsoever with a mess like this.
EDIT: All the above is written from the perspective of someone who doesn't know a lick of Korean and likes to keep it that way. Supposedly the lyrics are offensively inane, if you can understand them.
EDIT 2: This edited version (not mine) flows a lot more smoothly. Note how it brings in the "Oh, oh oh eh oh" motive relatively quickly after the tempo change to help connect the two halves better.
