Meh. Since my other hobby is listening to real music I don't really judge anything until I hear the full album. I also like to wait for the promotions to go on for a bit too. I mean, I love T-ara, and Roly-Poly as a song is okay but the promotions really got under my skin.

I was hoping the boys eng. ver. would be more engrish tbh lol.
I pre-ordered the album so it better be on its fucking way by now... along with T-ara Breaking heart repackage and Run devil run repackage.

Pagetop.....:s
Might as well share my wallpapers

On the bright side, it's by far the worst song on the album. Pretty sure we're all just being trolled with this track.

No I think it's sm trying to get a bite out of the English Market with an English style top 40 song and failing miserably to achieve even that low standard of quality.

Yea just got done listening to most of it... what were they thinking lol. The rest of the tracks are infinitely better. The album is actually pretty good sans the boys, how ironic T_T. Still a lot of cutesy songs though, thought they were gonna stray from it. Overall, I'm still going to enjoy the album ... just going to hope the boys grows on me.

Edit: anyone take a glance at seohyun's gluts... as the koreans say "thank you for growing up so well" ^^

That was my plan anyway...haven't liked an snsd song since gee so I wasnt expecting much from this.

Yeah it's a good plan there's no need for million pages about an average song just because some retard from somewhere happens to be the writer/producer. Not replying to earlier let's just chill

I'm telling you people relax and wait for performances, SNSD is too experienced they will make it work.

Yeah this song is not all that good, it gets really overdone towards the end, and there is simply no chorus so all the nice build up in the solo lines amounts to nothing. But it doesn't matter. Mark my words, this song is gonna make for awesome performances, and what is more important in kpop, MVs or perfs? This is the type of song you OWN a stage with. There's enough energy and it's gonna get the crowd moving and this is ultimately what it's all about.

Sorry Secret or whoever was dumb enough to book the same dates but there is no hope. SNSD will come out on music shows with offensive gg in 5 seconds and shit and that will be it.

And Engrish version well it's a good laugh at least

The song will still sound shit even sung live, and no amount of performance dancing will change that. I have never disliked a song and like the performance, and the lives won't change my mind this time either.
As for who wins, no ones kidding themselves. You act like everyone else's expecting a secret upset or something... The reality is that snsd winning is no big deal cause kpop fans buy the shit out of everything regardless of quality. All that snsds win with the boys will show is that gee and their older songs were good enough to generate a recurring fanbase, not that the boys is good.

lol at what's happened to the thread.

Yeah, to say that when I woke up and saw 4 pages and didn't expect this would be an understatement...sm really fucked up here.

Edit- did teddy Riley actually compose the song or did he just produce it? If the second, he doesn't deserve the criticism, at least for this lol. And he worked on ranias debut song which I actually liked.

Bad publicity is still publicity goddamnit. I say we ignore SNSD and go back to waiting for IU and have some Hyosungs while we wait for it.

That was my plan anyway...haven't liked an snsd song since gee so I wasnt expecting much from this.

All I'm saying is I dont think they will, and sales/win wise it won't matter either way, but w/e

.Sic.

Just stop listening to kpop. It's not music, it's entertainment.

I really hope they decide to use pretty much any of the other songs on the album to promote. The Boys is... meh. Definitely on the lower end of kpop songs, and definitely not promotion song material imo. Digging the rest of the album though!

At least they look fine as hell in the MV. Taeyeon pink tips though.. weird but still hot. ^^

Ya this is pretty much the problem. I like the build-up at the beginning with the solo parts but then the "chorus", if you can call it that, is just not catchy at all.

Youre fighting a battle that's been lost before you even syaryed...don't even bother trying to reason with fans.

I log off before going to sleep, wake up earlier to listen to the MV, and I hear this and see an exploded thread? Definitely wish I could go back to sleep...>.<
The song was good for the first minute before they started singing and it went downhill from there. Why did they choose The Boys for their MV? The other songs are a lot better.
