They're ladies but they stay Girls' Generation in their 17th thread!

[kimmeh]

I was surprised over how little they look alike !

[love in music]

^I actually think they look/sound a lot alike, though I prefer Jessica. People tend to say krystal looks like yoona though but I don't see it at all.

[terra]

They don't really look alike but if you pay close attention you'll spot their similarities

[CoriKaru]

"Get It In" makes sense. It's a common colloquialism.

I never did like that chorus in English though. So cheesy and weak.

And I still hear it as and accept it as, "Ripple to Wind, better tell.........".

[ahtka-chan]

Even though I prefer the English version better than the korean version, that's just because I think the English flows better.

In reality, the English lyrics of The Boys is quite terrible X_X That "I know life is a mystery" part seems like they just took several random sentences and put together in the middle of the song.

I just "love" this part:
Call all emergency
I'm watching the phone ring
I'm feeling this in my heart

[Mirai Noah]

It's the "I'm watching the phone ring" line that always gets me, lol. xD

[kimmeh]

I had no idea that Genie, Run Devil Run and Born to be a lady was existing songs too...

[4minute Girl]

I believe Nathalie Makoma and Demi Lovato's songs came out after SNSD's versions. Nathalie's song is the way the song was originally meant to sound (SM made a lot of changes for SNSD after buying it but Nathalie released it as is)

[kimmeh]

^Seems like you're right! Born to be a lady was out June 2011, and Mistake was out Sept 2011! Genie was out one year before I Just Wanna dance.

I think its a bit weird to sell the rights to the music before they use it themselves, no? Or is it just another way to make more money, as they think that americans won't hear the korean versions?

[AyUmIXx]

there are some composers, selling their songs not only to one company anymore, but several companies

i want IGAB english and japanese versions!!

[CHE.R.RY]

^ Oh Japanese ver.'s???

& I'm surprised I didn't recognize Run Devil Run as being Kesha's song in the first place when I'm a fan of her lol. Maybe I didn't like the song that much back in the day.

[kimmeh]

The song by kesha was never released. Only a demo that leaked

[JaysenRyan]

I really like I Just Wanna dance. I loved kesha and Demis versions. I love finding english versions of GG songs even if theyre not by GG.

[kimmeh]

I actually agree that she looks more like Yoona than Jessica!
About the thing with the headbanging, she doesn't even do it in the PV. People get upset over the most stupid things, ever. (Sooyoung doesn't do well either, but I think thats mainly because she's gonna sing in a second)


Hyoyeon, Yuri, Yoona are the only ones who really do it.
(Someone needs to close Taeyeons & sooyoungs mouths )

Oneee more time

[CoriKaru]

Thanks Kendelle

well..then...from the start she just doesn't want to do it

[visionfactory]

^
^ She's not even trying I'm not angry it's funny

[kimmeh]

I know! She's not pretending like Sooyoung, but there's probably a reason behind it. I don't mind it at all; she looks so cute!

[kimmeh]

Maybe the best REAL live of IGAB!
Musicbank 1 feb i think.
(even though Sunnys singing on the end there doesn't quite fit)
