*PLEASE READ* Girls' Generation The Boys (Reception)

Posted

Now, from what I know, many users on here are not K-Pop fans but just today a very famous girl group, Girls' Generation, debuted in the U.S. with their first English song, The Boys. You don't need to be a K-Pop fan or a Girls' Generation fan (a.k.a SONE since that is what the fans of this group are called) but I would like your input on their English debut because I really want these girls to succeed worldwide. Just tell me if you think it's good and if you'd listen to these girls if they came out with a full studio album in English, maybe even consider buying it. It's not obligatory because of course, I can't force any of you to do anything unwillingly but I implore you to consider. I would like to know your honest opinion of these girls and their song. Thank you, merci, gamsamida, arigatou if you agree to you do it. You have my utmost gratitude.

 

Please be advised that if you don't like listening to pop music, you won't like this video:

I don't normally listen to Pop, but this is pretty good! The only critique I have are the lyrics. Kinda corny, but most Pop songs do have corny lyrics IMO lol It's always about boys, clubbing, how good they look, etc. but this song is good regardless. Good voices, beautiful group of girls, good dance moves... Not sure if they'll make it to the top in the U.S. (because Americans can be so freakin judgmental on anything different) but I wish them a lot of luck! :)

http://kh13.com/forum/public/style_emoticons/default/happy.png It was a relief to hear that. And I agree with you on the 'Americans being judgemental' part. Canadians and Americans are the most accepting people in the world but they are also the most judgemental people in the world. One other girl group named Wonder Girls had their first English single reach number 2# on the Top Ten in Canada so I'm crossing my fingers for this group. I'm actually kinda desperate to get these girls accepted so I'm not just telling people on this site but my friends and family too. I don't what term you would call my desperation but I love these girls that much to try to get them known no matter how useless it might turn out. Thanks for your input, waytodawn. :)

Hey, nothing wrong with being a big fan! You obviously love their music so that's awesome you're trying to get them heard! I'm sure they would appreciate it if they knew. I listened to it again and it's definitely catchy. I liked it better the 2nd time around.

 

And no problem! Hope they make it :)

 

P.S. I posted the video on my Facebook and I'm getting some responses already. My friend Tai loves them lol

You, waytodawn, in my eyes have become more awesome. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Not bad compared to most pop music in America now a days i cant stand it.... but this, this is AWESOME :D hope to hear more from them. love the whole video with the slow-mo.

 

Side note.... when i first saw the petals i totally thought of marluxia :P

The dancing had nothing to do with the song but whatever. I usually listen to metal and techno but this was pretty good. Repeat a lot of boys though.

Aww, you're welcome! xD

I love K-Pop, but isn't Girls' Generation alternate name SNSD...? Derp.

 

Anyway, I love the song, and I'm glad that K-Pop was in the "Youtube Spotlight" section as well. :3c
