- I ACTUALLY LOVE THIS SONG. i mean obviously i was always going to because i have stockholm's when it comes to snsd, but they excerpted the chorus for the teasers and the chorus is my least favorite part of the song so i was really worried that it would suck? AND THEN IT DIDN'T. except for the chorus. i am just not a fan of the way kpop does "rap" and sme especially needs to stay the fuck away.
- EVERYONE LOOKS SO GOOD!!! especially yuri omg *____* and i'm surprisingly fond of taeyeon's pink hair? it threw me at first but i warmed up to it really quickly. the only real complaint i have is sunny's hair, which is depressing because normally i am all for girls with short hair. i mean she obv works it because she is sunny and that is what she DOES but, idk, i'm not really feeing it. i think the more i watch it the more i'll like it though. it did look good at the end when it was all tousled and in her face. i think maybe the problem is that when she's not dancing it looks shellacked onto her head? IDK THIS IS GETTING RIDICULOUS SO I'LL STOP.
- THE DANCE BREAK!! HYOYEON IN FRONT!!!! AND THEN SOOYOUNG!!!! LOTS OF EXCLAMATION POINTS!!!!!!!!
- lol can we talk about sme's pathological dependence on their 360 camera
- I REALLY REALLY LIKE WHEN THEY SAY "BRING THE BOYS OUT"
- the beginning part (DA BOYZ DA BOYZ DA BOYZ DA BOYZ) is also great! idk i'm pretty much in love with how everything starts, and i think for the most part the song manages to keep up the energy all the way through.
- OMG I JUST REGISTERED THAT TIFFANY IS THE ONE WEARING THE HAT & CUTOUT BODYSUIT AT THE END, HNNNNG
- IDK, I WAS UP REALLY LATE LAST NIGHT SO I'M NOT REALLY COHERENT (when am i ever) BUT BASICALLY I'M SURPRISED BY HOW MUCH I ENJOY THIS?? i mean i have my usual complaints (SOMEDAY THEY WILL HAVE A MV WITH A STORY) but overall i really like it!
- i haven't watched the english version yet though, should i be nervous?
ETA: LOL FOREVER AT JESSICA SINGING THE OPENING TO "LAZY GIRL"

Date: 2011-10-18 09:46 pm (UTC)THIS IS ME AND EVERY. SINGLE. SM. GROUP. although usually I don't even need it with snsd because their songs are just that perfect. I know this song is technically horrible but parts of it are growing on me. and their voices sound great!! other than in the..."chorus".
ugh that 360 camera. honestly the sm "formula" for making music videos doesn't bother me all that much (although yes, more story mvs please!) but that camera does not make the mvs look any better, guys.
the english lyrics are beyond horrible (not as bad as boa's eat you up but still they're not good) but other than a few slip ups the girls' english is surprisingly good. that and their vocals kind of redeem the lyrics, at least when I'm listening to it and not paying attention :\

Date: 2011-10-18 11:33 pm (UTC)all sm mvs consist of a bunch of pretty people dancing around being pretty, which i am okay with! but they get repetitive after a while (see: super junior) and i'd like to see them experiment more. just not with the 360 camera. it's gotten to the point where it's just hilarious. i think the only time it was actually effective was in "lucifer" and that's because that was the first time we'd seen it.
my favorite part is when yoona's all WE AIM FOR MORE THAN ZERO!!! well.....yeah. why would you aim for zero? that's pretty ineffective.

SERIOUSLY. I mean bruno mars if nothing else has proved americans can tolerate banal shit lyrics but I hope poor yoona doesn't know how silly her line is.

Date: 2011-10-20 07:40 pm (UTC)i always feel bad for the americans having to sing these silly english lyrics. well, okay, i think tiffany's probably fine with it, she's kind of adorable that way. but jessica probably judges the fuck out of their songwriters. lol and seohyun probably hates them too.
