Ayu's Boys & Girls to be selected by SNSD's YoonA for compilation album

[kendelle]

K-Pop singer and member of SNSD/Girls Generation (also known as Shojou Jidai in Japan), YoonA will be releasing a cover of Ayu's "Boys & Girls" as part of a Girls Generation compilation album.



The album, called "Sweet Memories with Girls Generation", will be released on October 7 and features the 9 members of the group covering some of their favourite J-Pop songs.

YoonA's cover is set to be track #1 on the compilation. Other artists covered include AAA, Kumi Koda, BoA and Namie Amuro.

Girls Generation also have their own song titled "Boys&Girls", which itself is pretty darn catchy

The album has popped up for pre-order on YesAsia at a slight discount

Girls Generation debuted in 2007 and are probably best known for their song "Gee". They have recently released a Japanese version of their song "Genie", which peaked at #2 on the Oricon Music Chart.

I personally am really looking forward to seeing how well this sells, being a fan of both SNSD and Ayu I'm happy YoonA selected this track herself! I wonder if she's a fan or just really likes this one song?

It's not a cover CD, it's just a compilation. Meaning, the girls picked their favorite j-pop songs to be included.

[C+R+E+AYUMI]

[TITANIC]

[pommy48]

What kind of a stupid album is this? @_@ Just go create a "favorites" playlist...

[kendelle]

Oh, it's just a collection then? I read it as a cover album >_>;;;;;;

[y_nathz]

Lol I thought Yoona will cover that song xD
But nice choice Yoona!
I wonder if she's an Ayu fan..

[freedreamer]

So..it's not? Ok zzz..i was hoping it would it. Those songs on the cd are gonna be interesting when they are covered

[asmAyumi1992]

I listen to SNSD occasionally and I hope that YounA will do Ayu's song justice (if ever it is a cover album). If it turns out to be a compilation album, well, I must say that she made a great choice choosing Ayu's Boys & Girls.

[Jwiz]

I missed Ayu's long hair

[AyuGAME]

so..its just a compilation?

[rakeru]

That's lame... Why bother even making it if it's just their favorite songs? Put some effort into it and cover the songs!

[Anna Willow]

This is old news, isn't it? I remember reading about it a long time ago...

Wow, that's a very good reason for you to hate them =\
As far as I'm concerned, YUI doesn't own Tayou no Uta ..

Aw I thought she was really going to cover it, it would've been weird since the song doesn't really fit Yoona's voice.

[love in music]

can the title PLEASE be changed? it's just going to bring more and more unnecessary bashing, and this "cover" isn't even happening.

Yeah, seriously. A cover album would've made a lot more sense though.
