It's like Miki is Jessica's older sister or something!
I think I prefer the way Japanese idols look to Korean. They're both super pretty though.

Mr. Taxi Full MV
For some reason people are really disappointed. I'm not sure why. This is not only fairly standard for jpop (group shot + closeups) but it's also standard for SNSD as well. Why all the fuss?

SNSD had a few not-so-generic music videos. Think about Oh, Hoot or Gee.
On an unrelated note, I'm thinking about making this my desktop background:

It's dazzling.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Yeah, but even those were the basic formula. Just with more inspired backgrounds.
I think most of their fans are confused, expecting the dance version to be something different than the original, not being aware that the dance version is always just ripped from the regular thing. Maybe people thought Universal would try to do a little more than SM does (I swear they give SNSD the worst MVs and you figure they'd get the best ones being the moneymakers).
But I can say this is the first time I've liked Tiffany without her bangs, so that's a plus. That black is really working for her.
Also everyone's favorite little dancer covered RDR

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Well, Mr. Taxi's officially a pretty safe song all in all, which is probably the best decision for an attempted Japanese break-through.
And I think fan disapproval stems from the fact that the full version is just close-ups of the girls.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Listening to the song for a few times now I wonder why they made no part where this part of the refrain is without the background music and just a heavy bass.
It'd sound absolutely great.

Mr. Taxi has renewed my faith in Kpop in general. I was worried for a little while.

They sing in Japanese for the most part though and this is a Japanese release.

S/mileage called, they want their sparkles back.
But really, I like the song it's growing on me, slowly. Very... slowly.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Needs more Yoona.
Since they're autotuning the hell out of the song already, they might as well seize the opportunity to give her more lines.

Finally found Mr. Taxi in HD:

And here's the dance shot:

Also, Taeyeon has absolutely perfect teeth.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
It's her veneers. Her lower set of teeth used to be crooked, but I can't remember if she's gotten them fixed.

She must have done it a long time ago, since on her before-SNSD school fotos she look just like now.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I'm sure SM paid for them at some point. They're expensive. But they're mostly there to keep her teeth really white.
I don't ever see her bottom teeth anymore, so I've been wondering if she's fixed them.

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I can't get enough of Mr. Taxi.
Also, here's a live version:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3T7hx-Rqgg
And it's without cancerous autotune ! Hooray ! But the mixing is somewhat weird.
Anybody else found them singing Mr. Taxi anywhere ? I can't find shit on yt.
EDIT:
And here's a surprisingly good sounding "male" version:

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
They're getting ready for a concert, so I'd expect it to be performed there. But it'll be a long time before any studio-quality performances of that are up.

Agreed.
Also, that's a great video. I say it's on par with MM's 60's Girl Pop Medley.

Just listened to the Japanese album. It's an absolute yawn fest and every song sounds like something I've heard before.

Haha because you probably have. How many songs on the album are new instead of rehashes of Korean songs that came out years ago?

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
The new album is extremely dissapointing. I haven't liked a single song I've listened to
<p style="text-align:center;">我最爱你。你是我的太阳。
Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
I could have handled the same-ness of it all if it had been interesting to listen to. SNSD never have good non-single tracks. I think the producers realize no one cares because it's SNSD. There's also way too much Jessica. Others may like her voice but I can't stand it. 5 of the songs have already been released. Can't believe they didn't remake something like ITNW as well, since it's basically the only SNSD song that everyone can agree was really good.
Kind of curious as to what a fluent person thinks of their pronunciation though, since they get a lot of hate for it. Honestly if I listened to Japanese Hoot without knowing it was Japanese, I would never be able to guess what language it was in.
One thing I have noticed is that their songs seem to have more and more English as time goes by. Mr. Taxi was just flooded with it and so is this album.

I really like Stick With You (I refuse to type it the official way), Boyfriend and some other song who's name I don't remember. I don't think all of their non-single songs are garbage.
What's ITNW ?

Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
The previews had me thinking everything was pleasant but dull, and I'm expecting Mr. Taxi to be the most interesting track on the album. <img src='http://mm-bbs.org/public/style_emoticon ... lesson.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lesson:' /> It feels like all the Korean crossover acts really suck right now and all have boring songs, but if any of the acts have anything going for them, I'd expect it to be SNSD. So far, it feels like it'll end up like Lady Gaga's Born This Way album in that no song really sucks, but likewise no song is amazing.
Re: The New All Purpose SNSD Thread
Tiffany and Taeyeon performed Lady Marmalade at the concert.
This is interesting. Taeyeon looks like a little girl playing dress up and Tiffany looks like... idek.
Who chose this song?
