She didn't. She wrote the rap for both the Korean and English version.

All the boys, all the boys want my heart, better now how to rock and don't stop, oh gee we make you so hot, girls generation - we won't stop :love


By the way, why and why did Jessica and Tiffany approve of "we're born to win, Better tell all your friends 'cause we get it in".... We get it IN?? Why, why! It just sounds so wrong :laugh should have been we get it on or something. It's just like Jessica and Tiffany doesn't notice that they're singing "cauliflower" in flower power

I used to think it was meant to be dirty too but I think this version of "get it in" in the song means they're bragging about being successful/hard workers.

Even though I prefer the English version better than the korean version, that's just because I think the English flows better.

In reality, the English lyrics of The Boys is quite terrible X_X That "I know life is a mystery" part seems like they just took several random sentences and put together in the middle of the song.

I just "love" this part:
Call all emergency
I'm watching the phone ring
I'm feeling this in my heart

It's the "I'm watching the phone ring" line that always gets me, lol. xD

I had no idea that Genie, Run Devil Run and Born to be a lady was existing songs too...

I believe Nathalie Makoma and Demi Lovato's songs came out after SNSD's versions. Nathalie's song is the way the song was originally meant to sound (SM made a lot of changes for SNSD after buying it but Nathalie released it as is)

^Seems like you're right! :yes Born to be a lady was out June 2011, and Mistake was out Sept 2011! Genie was out one year before I Just Wanna dance.

I think its a bit weird to sell the rights to the music before they use it themselves, no? Or is it just another way to make more money, as they think that americans won't hear the korean versions?

there are some composers, selling their songs not only to one company anymore, but several companies

i want IGAB english and japanese versions!!

^ Oh Japanese ver.'s???

& I'm surprised I didn't recognize Run Devil Run as being Kesha's song in the first place when I'm a fan of her lol. Maybe I didn't like the song that much back in the day.

The song by kesha was never released. Only a demo that leaked

I really like I Just Wanna dance. I loved kesha and Demis versions. I love finding english versions of GG songs even if theyre not by GG.

Jessica and Krystal have some kind of genetic *****face thing going on :innocent

Both of them often end up in the media being "criticised" for their facial expression when their natural/neuteral face just looks a bit "dark".

Jessica: Headbang criticism (keep in mind she was hospitalised after this) | bored face
Krystal: Krystal's "angry" face | Bored face

I hope the English album comes out August/September - gives them plenty of room for the Tour, Korean comeback and then frees them up for a few months in the US...

I'm not sure if I want heaps of English covers though, maybe Gee because it's their most well-known song, Genie for reasons, Look at Me and BOOMERANG for the offbeat angle, and BORN TO BE A LADY, Time Machine and ALL MY LOVE IS FOR YOU for capslock glory and balladness.forget that I thought about it and nearly all covers could work

My ideal tracklist would be something like this in the US album:

Still get 4 all-new songs, total songs = 11 which isn't too many or too few for an album. Segregating a short intro makes it easier for newcomers to pick a voice they like without getting confused as to who's who......damn, I now really want this album lol

I actually agree that she looks more like Yoona than Jessica!
About the thing with the headbanging, she doesn't even do it in the PV. People get upset over the most stupid things, ever. (Sooyoung doesn't do well either, but I think thats mainly because she's gonna sing in a second)

Hyoyeon, Yuri, Yoona are the only ones who really do it.
(Someone needs to close Taeyeons & sooyoungs mouths :laugh )

Oneee more time

http://i.imgur.com/CYfOKFh.gif

well..then...from the start she just doesn't want to do it

^
^ She's not even trying :laugh I'm not angry it's funny

I know! She's not pretending like Sooyoung, but there's probably a reason behind it. I don't mind it at all; she looks so cute!

Maybe the best REAL live of IGAB!
Musicbank 1 feb i think.
(even though Sunnys singing on the end there doesn't quite fit)
