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

They never soundcheck for these things, they literally arrive and leave the same day back to Korea.

I actually didn't think it was that bad at all..are my ears working properly? Haha. Sure there were some issues, but since they were singing live and dancing pretty hard at the same time, I think they all did great. I'm surprised they didn't just sit down and rest straightaway

Although, for some of the girls, you have to wonder... I love Sunny so so sooo much (second favorite girl after Hyo) but her voice was off. I think you were hearing Seohyun's backtrack, kimmeh, because whereas with Taeyeon, you could hear her singing over the backtrack (and it sounded really good!), I couldn't hear any overlapping voice(s) with Seohyun.

I think the backtrack is an issue too, since both Tiffany and Hyo were late at their lines, and they usually aren't. I couldn't hear Taeyeons backtrack at all, I just thought that maybe Taeyeon has such a strong voice that she doesn't need a backtrack at all. She was pretty impressive here. I can't hear Seos backtrack in Dancing queen, but it sounds like theres a slight "double-voice" in her first part in I got a boy.

I feel bad for the HK fans. Pay a lot of money for ****** sound and bad lights, when it could have been sooo much better.

Most of the girls can sing quite well, but under pressure(dancing, singing live) will put a strain on their voice, thus lowering the quality. My main issue with this performance is how the backtrack is too loud/not in sync with their own voices, so you hear a "double sound", in addition to bad (or no) soundcheck, like how you can't hear Tae at the start of Dancing queen. I'm guessing they're pretty tired from the japan tour too. The girls need some much needed rest

The bad thing was the echo, the background voice, they just didn't synch it with the recorded voice and that's why it sounded not good, but I agree, it wasn't bad and would be just very different (from the cd recording) if the background voice wasn't there.

It's super hard to sing and properly hold your air when dancing like that, but even so, some of them might get better at singing with the back track. Jessica is, Seo is.

They might not have their own sound person...but it would be nice if they did. I mean, they need someone who knows their voices and how they perform, and can properly set up and adjust their mics and sound during their shows.

Turn up Jessica's mic here and there cause her voice is so soft...Maybe turn down Tiffany, Hyo, and Sunny's when they aren't singing well...to keep the balance.

The acoustics for that show were ****.

That performance of "Dancing Queen" was so bad that I am not ashamed to say that I broke me streak of never having bothered to watch that song performed live just to watch it. That is how bad it is. That was my first and will be my last. That was also my 2nd time listening to the song. My first being when the Music Video was revealed. Never even bothered listening to it on the Album. It's just awful.

How Seohyun sounded at 5:55 when she was announcing "I Got A Boy" was so different.

And that guy shouting Jessica's and Sooyoung's name in between songs sounded like a murderer.

[love in music]

Sunny in that video (especially at 9:33) made it worth watching for me. She's so cute and friendly always interacting with the audience.

but yeah the vocals were very off lol

Even though I knew these were fake, I got to that part and believed it was real. Lololololol!

[SKYia]

[Utena]

wth? oh but that's a live MV, boooring.

[emi♡]

aw fml. I wanted an actual music video. I love that song.

[ExodusUK]

It's an actual music video, the use of the word "live" is about a preview and announcement of the music video at tonight's live concert They showed a 15 second preview of it during the MC/encore.

Rough translation -

At tonight's concert Girl's Generation announced their latest secret music video "BEEP BEEP".

Please look forward to the full reveal of the music video tomorrow!

The video is debuting at 8am

It's for the repackage, they've only uploaded a -short ver- so they're probably gonna go down an album repackage route like the Bad Girl PV on the repackaged 1st Japanese album.
