Must suck to be called a failure. When anybody in the kpop industry is compared to SNSD. It's called life getting in the way. Been pretty busy with tons of school related stuff, so kpop secondary to actually doing school stuff. Generally when I listen to an album, I like listening to it all the way through, in order. So it's actually a pretty big time commitment before I give the album a run through.

The latest Miss A album was like this, I really disliked Touch but ended up liking every other track on the album more. | ||

Andy had it pretty much right. I wasn't trying to say it was a failure or any of that shit, that's obviously not true. What I found most interesting about that thing I quoted was that TTS and previous SNSD releases outsold IGAB when I didn't really expect it to. So in reference to what Ness is saying, it isn't fair to compare different girl groups. But comparing previous SNSD releases to SNSD releases is fair, and apparently IGAB doesn't stack up sales/popularity wise. Youtube views don't mean much IMO- there is that 2 billion deleted fake view thing Klogg mentioned, and even if youtube ignores scripts like Ness suggested (and I have seen people saying otherwise, but w/e) I'd bet a huge number of people clicked on it when it was on the front page, either out of boredom or to test sound (the IT place where I work does this to test sound/internet all the time). This doesn't mean it's popular, it just means that it was on the front page of the most popular streaming website in the world. And before people say it, no I'm not arguing that the song isn't popular at all, just that 30 million (or whatever) views isn't indicative of anything. Obviously it's popular; it's an SNSD release. I just found it interesting that it wasn't as popular (popular enough for random people to want to buy the song, not "popular" enough for people to click on a random video) as previous releases. | ||

Guessing the author didn't do proper fact checking. Here are some numbers. Over 30 million views on YouTube for IGAB in 2 weeks. Number one on all the charts, including 2 weeks on Billboard. They also have like 5 or 6 songs off the album in the top 50. I doubt the Korean public, or the world for that matter, is hating on it like this thread is. Views on yt don't mean shit. Stop using that metric as justification. Rebecca Black has upwards of 40 million views but only sold something like 35k on itunes. Views aren't indicative of how much people enjoy a song. all it is is more exposure, which I guess is a positive thing but rather irrelevant. And, as other people have said, there are scripts that easily rack up youtube views. 30 million views in over 2 weeks means something. This is a lot of freaking views in 2 weeks. To dismiss it completely is stupid. You are ignoring numbers that exist. People are talking about it. It is getting views. It means there is a BIG interest in it. I am not using it as my sole argument but part of a whole. It becomes very relevant when combined with the success on the other charts. The point that is trying to be made is that this promotion cycle has been a failure. It has not and there has been more proof of success and barely any hint of failure. Second of all, you guys should either discuss the same thing or just stop. While ShmeeZZy is discussing the success of the song, andyrau is discussing the quality of the song, which are related to eachother, but not the same thing .. I wasn't discussing song quality at all for the most part, I was simply discussing the validity of calling it a success. Once again, for the last time, it's a commercial success. More exposure for the group, high download/record sales, shows them expanding the scope of music genres (whatever the fuck that means in kpop), etc. Musically and historically, I'd still say it's a bit of a flop. But in the grand scheme of things, it's just a small blip in their careers. | ||

BP Pop's song is out. Nothing special about them, other than they're opening the 2013 girl group floodgates. | ||

The new season of R&I feels really samey in comparison with season 1 imo, but I like the characters better so I think I'll keep watching. | ||
