I actually like this version a lot and the fact it's a little more like the original makes me smile. Good work!

This is BEYOND awesome and ought to go viral with the k-poop community. You could become a rockstar, Surasshu!

Maybe I should get someone to make a video so I can put it on Nicodouga... Then it might take off. :3



Here's a funny Gee video. It really gets good when the chorus hits, so stick with it until then. It had me rolling on the floor, it's amazing.

[Tallgeese]

Looks like they're gonna have a new single out, "Visual Dreams," a tie in for Intel CPU commercials.

Fuck, I just downloaded their 2 set super album yesterday and now the vortex! The vortex!!! Can't stop!!



I'm late to the party but now I'm a definitely fan now.

[Pflaume]

Do they echo echo echo in your brain?

Dunno if it was just my computer, but that version didn't really work well for me. Here's the sment official version, anyway.



It really sounds good to me, I don't know quite where to place it in terms of genre, but it's definitely something. Reminds me of "Oh!" which is obviously one of my favorites by them. I hope this preview is representative for the final thing. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol:' />

It was not just your computer. I guess yt fucked up that guy's upload.



The video looks boring, the dance is retarded and the song doesn't have any special vibe to it, like other SNSD songs.

I don't really like this.



Tiffany is looking extremely good though.

Watching the preview several times now, it seems as if Sunny is getting a lot of attention from the camera.



EDIT:



HOOOOLD YOUR HORSES !

Is there a SNSD audition coming up and nobody here knows about it ?

(or did I just miss the post about it ?)

It's just a general SM Entertainment audition that SNSD are advertising. There's a video of SHINee talking about the auditions, too.

Agreed, I think her hair looks bad (she makes it look good anyway though). But yeah she's in the center for the dance at one point, gets a solo line, AND a close-up shot. That's a lot for a 30 second clip! But it might be a coincidence, cause usually this is about as much attention as she gets in an entire video.

[Pflaume]

Yep, Sunny got more attention than she typically would in a teaser.



She has been doing that duck face thing a lot. It's so goofy. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /laugh.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wub:' />

Oh, ok, thanks for the info.

[Shoujo Q]

Full Visual Dreams MV is out now.





I don't like Sunny with blonde hair! It annoys me actually.



Hyoyeon... got his with the make artist's ugly stick. WTF did they DO to her? No wonder she got little screen time. That hair color nor style work with her at all. D:



Everyone else looks fine. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... iggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wheely:' />



This song sucks BTW.



Oh and a 30 sec. preview of the Japanese Run Devil Run

Thanks for the link.

"The video looks boring, the dance is retarded and the song doesn't have any special vibe to it" still applies to it.



But damn, Tiffany is looking mighty fine here.

[sadude]

Yeah, this song is awful. And Hyoyeon looks like she just boxed Mike Tyson. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... hatthe.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':wheely:' />

[showraniy]

Seohyun as center for 2/3rds of the vid fills me with fangirly happy bubbles.



And I think Sunny looks fine here with her blonde hair; it's a lot better than her Hoot hair, at least. Hell, EVERYONE'S hair here is better than their Hoot hair.

[Pflaume]

One day, years ago, Hyoyeon spit in the hair and makeup staff's coffee. This is the only logical explanation.



I don't hate the song, but I don't love it either. It will probably get stuck in my head anyway. I don't think I need to re-state that this video is not what you would call "good."



I would agree that I liked Sunny's hair more when it was not blonde. But, really, after Hoot promotions almost anything seems better. In my perfect idols styling scenario she would always have the RDR curls, though, so I'm just fussy and impossible to please. Also, I'm pretty sure I have complained about the blonde before in this very thread.

[surasshu]

Haha, holy shit I didn't think that was the whole song. I thought the preview was one of those "some tracks are off" type previews. Yeah that sucked ass.

[Tallgeese]

Yeah, def. a "filler" song as far as SNSD goes, then again it is a CM tie up. Also, unsurprisingly, they let Sunny and Seohyun feature a bit more (which could not happen in a "real" SNSD song... kind of like what happens in HP c/w songs where the lesser members get the spotlight!). But Hyoyeon still hated, in camera time, makeup and hair, and singing lines. So mean! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... prised.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

[moralar]

Visual Dreams has now replaced Oh as my least favorite SNSD song! <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... /dance.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



*listens to "Complete" again*

Visual Dreams's not that bad of a song. It's just boring. But really, once you take into account the entire marketing point of the song, it just feels more like a high quality CM jingle.



Just ignore the fact that Chocolate Love was ten times better.





Also, after this post, I realized Visual Dreams shortened is VD. Somehow, I got an awesomely immature laugh out of this because I almost said, "VD's not that bad!"

[fpd]

The dance is so laughably bad, BUT it made me completely lose it with laughter when I saw Nada's dance from the SNSD episode of Introducing a Star's Friend make an appearance. The part where they hold both their hands at a 90 degree angle forward and sort of shuffle them back and forth was literally taken directly from him, I swear haha.



I don't mind the song though, decent background music.





http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMVGz2a5ouM 30 seconds in.



Compare that to the move at about 13 seconds into the intel core video haha.

[eri]

Well, I like the sparkly dresses and everyone looks pretty. But, it is a testament to how awful the dance is that I couldn't watch the PV all the way through. The song is pretty generic but it could be worse I guess.

But the Chocolate Love MV was a fine Yuri showcase, so I'm happy with it.

[Haru]

Yeah, I'm not that big on "Visual Dreams" either. :\ I haven't really liked many of their jingles for that matter. I don't know why. I liked "COOKY" however, even if it was a rip on "Mickey."



The PV was way too HD for my slow-ass internet; but it looks like green screen hell. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... nfused.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':whistling:' /> And that choreography is a joke.



Can someone tell me a particular reason all the girls had their legs covered by blankets? Or were they just cold? lol

I think it's for reasons of modesty. They'll always cover their laps with a pillow or something when they sit down wearing something really short.

[Haru]

That's what I wondered but I didn't want to make assumptions.

And in America; stars flash their crotches like it's nobody's business.



I fucking love Asia.

[moralar]

I even have actual evidence! (Click for full-size versions to read dialog.)



















Even after the tissue paper disappears somewhere, she still carefully keeps covered up with her hands.

Longer Run Devil Run preview.



Are they saying Honki? Because it sounds funny. And I don't like this version at all so far.

Honki means truth, but I don't know the meaning of the original lyrics, so it could be something else.

[Haru]

I'm loving the Japanese version. <3



And yeah, I'm hearing "honki" as well.

The lyrics might've been changed to suit the music though. I'll take a look at the Korean lyrics real quick and see.



ETA - Original lyrics

I think it has something to do with the original lyrics; but they're worded a little differently. The verse the "honki" falls in is "do it right // you're really a bad boy // more curiosity than love // all this time I have been blindly fooled by you." The "really" could be "honki," because in some instances I've seen "honki" translated as "really" (seriously, truly, truth, etc); but otherwise I don't know.
