Beep Beep! Pick up the phone! It's Girls Generation's 18th thread on the line!

I am not good at all the fluff, but I never got to make the thread before and I love all things GG!

I am still patiently awaiting their English Album. I just want to blast it all down the street.

Thank you for making a new thread! I love the title! :)

I like the title, thanks for the new thread

Yay. Just a little over two weeks till their Japanese tour aired (how I miss the days Ayu's tours were aired shortly after the last date).

Wheeee a new thread! Thanks JaysenRyan
I kinda wait for their World Tour, I hope they changed the setlist so it includes solo performances and they can get rid of Express 999 lol

did sunny just got fat or is it the bad outfit?

^Guess the outfit kinda made her look like that, it's the cut on her costume's stomach area that made her look fatter, the higher than hip cut was maybe to made her look taller. But it doesn't look because it made her look plump with so little area of the upper body made by the high cut lol (I babbled as if I know fashion) but I personally don't really like their costume for the tour especially that black and white stripes ones.

Hyoyeon is now the Asian ambassador/spokesperson for TopShop

I am glad I picked a good title. I wanted it to be current but not too terribly cheesy.

Finally! :D

I'm so happy for Hyo, gurl need proper attention :yes besides she's the group 'fashion terrorist' :laugh

I imagine when they start their World Tour it would be a revamped version of
their 2nd Japan tour, I kinda created the my wish set list lol

If she had a nosejob like Ayu's...they would totally look like sisters!

Weird eye makeup!

Hyeoyeon looks fine the way she is!

Nope :shrug: She doesn't need to look like Ayu, I've just thought they've looked somewhat similar before.
http://i.imgur.com/g8zuE.jpghttp://i.imgur.com/KjpFh.jpg

Hyoyeon nose is the most adorable thing ever, no doctor can touch it, lol! It's like Sunny's chubbiness, just perfectly adorableXD
Anyway, Hyoyeon looks weird in those shoots...

^It's that line under her eyes I supposed, and the photoshop that made her nose a more noticeable than it used to be.

Today's Wowow "Girls Generation in Japan" special

I just realised their first Japanese album was released two years ago today..still love it.

Thanks for all the videos!
Ugh... that flash of Beep Beep PV HURTS. I want it. Uff.

Wow two years already? I still love that album too. It's my favorite album release of theirs ever. :yes

Same here, it looks great. Wonder if they'll release it one day

^Of course, they already spent thousands of yens on that video

It will probably be a bonus on the album, I keep imagining their next single will have an acoustic version as a b-side for some reason.

^Yes, but she is a sexy watermelon, XD

^Stunning <3

I just realized that my mp3 version of Girls&Love is 320kbps, fullversion without any kind of noise. Can't remember where I found the rip, I wonder if its a leak rip..? I was going to upload to jpopsuki, but I know they don't allow it - unless its the entire album/single

It's probably just a clean rip from the PV

Dance version

The dance seems way "bigger" now, I thought honestly they were just doing some small moves while walking (the original PV mainly filmed their legs).

And Tiffany can't do the na-na-na-na thing with her hands.

I remember my sister said that she read somewhere (on SSF or twitter I guess) that duirng the shooting of the PV, Jessica was 'scared' with the presence of drag queens and that Taeyeon teased her because of it :laugh (maybe she read it from Taeyeon's idk lol)

Jessica definitely has a "not too pleased with this" face, but doesn't she always? :laugh

I know right, it's the main reason haters blames her for being disrespectful and etc while she naturally looked like that XD

But I guess she's really scared of the drag queens as with cucumbers :laugh

I just had to make a gif out of Jessica's "what-should-i-have-for-dinner"-face

http://i.minus.com/iHcdP1e7HRu2O.gif

^:roflmao look at her! she even "don't care" about the shooting at all

Ikr :laugh
especially when compared to super-cheery seohyun and hyoyeon(who is to the left).

Seohyun really owns this video (I can't believe I didn't like her in the past), she's so cheerful and her eyes shine, she seems to feel comfortable with the set and people, Sunny takes 2nd place and Hyoyeon the 3rd, the rest seems to be the background for them :D

I'd add Tae on the 4th, because her energy in this vid is just too adorable!

I love how everyone of them is so different and adorable in their own way!
Like, Seohyun always makes me laugh when she tries to be supercute like Sunny (she's the serious and responsible kind of girl) and Tiffany wouldn't stop smiling even if threatenedXD
And Taeyeon always cool in every situation (she's not the leader for nothing!)

[TRANS] 2013 Girls' Generation World Tour -Girls&Peace- starts off this weekend in SEOUL!! Ps. Everybody watch love&girls PV & make sure you memorize the shampoo dance ;) Love&Girls' first performance! It will be revealed for the first time on 8th June at the Seoul concert! Let's all whistle and do the shampoo dance together (whistle) kekeke totally excited!! Let's meet on Saturday (heart) #GGworldtour #GG #girlsgeneration

shampoo dance? Really? Thats what they called it?

Also, PHOTOSHOP EXPLOSION ALL OVER THEIR FACES.
In all honesty, can we please move away from fly attendant theme? Flower Power had it, GIRLS & PEACE had it, and now this tour has it too?

^
Thanks for posting.
Mhhh... that's really not a remarkable picture, isn't it? They litterally look all the same and the uniforms are so plain. And I agree, the fly attendant theme was nice in FLOWER POWER, so so in GGII, and here is overused and plaaaain.

I'm pretty sure this tour will be the same as the Japanese one anyways..

The tour is called -Girls Generation Girls & Peace World Tour-..makes sense for the tour to keep the theme of the album going!

I know @_@ but i'm still tired of it. They could at least have used some more fun costumes. That looks like what my grandma could wear

I love Jessica because she's the only one who's not pretending there ♥ I mean, you guys really think that all that fun and happiness from the other 8 girls is genuine?

^We cannot say for sure about how genuine their happiness is, but after watching reality shows and TV performances I can say that they're not always happy all the time, and they're just like us, a person with personality flaws and etc. One of the great "actress" in term of looking happy for the sake of being professional is Sunny although sometimes she just can't handle the tiredness and everything she looked grumpy lol Jessica is just like that from the very beginning, Taeyeon seems to show some personality change/matured more, etc etc

Regarding the tour, I also wish they come up with something new although I realize that SM is a cheap company they'll do anything to tighten up their budget on an already established artist. If I can really hope, I hope they'll change the costume and add more songs to the setlist/solo performances

I CAN'T

Hyo is getting prettier and prettier everyday.

I hope she stays blond forever coz it suits her so well ♥ not that light though, I prefered her previous haircolor

I think the eyebrows is 80% of the change. Seriously though.
They used to be dark, shapeless and almost angry-shaped
http://hyunaesuzuki.files.wordpress....hyoyeon-10.jpg

Now they're thinner, softer and in a lighter shade

http://www.soshified.com/wp-content/...180degrees.jpg

Talking about increased beauty, holy cow check out Seo these days:
http://i.imgur.com/6sPTjiK.jpg?1

^I agree, eyebrow seems not significant in look but it actually helps alters the look. Like Taeyeon who usually don't have eyebrows visible until she's on stage XD

Wow Seohyun looks super hot in that one! :heart

Hyoyeon fits Topshop style perfectly!! She's looking SO NICE, I just can't.

OMG her hiragana..I can't!
http://24.media.tumblr.com/5a50beece...chco1_1280.jpg

Seohyun is perfect.

I'm glad they changed hyo's eyebrows. The flat shape fits her face better, and the brown makes her seem less "dark".

^^
Thanks so much for that! Fanny <3 <3

According to wikipedia

Setlist in Seoul
Twinkle all member version!? And they seem to like Express 999 -_-"
Wish they still stick ALL MY LOVE IS FOR YOU though, I really love that song

Too bad for them because of how they release things between two countries and their tour scheduling, we missed many great album songs from them :( I still hope one day to see OSCAR or TRICK on stage

For comparison, their Japan Setlist

I saw a vid where someone filmed the twinkle. Basically TTS singing it, with a few of the girls getting one line :(

Don't mind the setlist. Also i hope they'll come to Europe!

Oh yeah I wanted BEEP BEEP too lol even though I won't mind LOVE & GIRLS but I kinda want to see BEEP BEEP xD

Nice setlist! <3

Post concert picture with EXO from SMTown's Facebook page
http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q...psbb755bf0.jpg
The Tshirt is different from their Japanese Tour one, I want both even tho the Japanese one with tie looks better xD

Haha, Seo and Fany's head angle's are exactly the same

I like the Japanese Setlist!

Twinkle with minimal background music. You can really hear their voices, super clear. Tae and Seo can really sing. Fany is good, but not as good as the two others

^

for the link to work you must put it without the "http:// youtu.be/" part

^thanks, wow, their voices are so good

This. is. PERFECTION.
Tatiseo melts my heart every single time. Perfect, they're just perfect!

HAHA OOPS; i totally knew that, i just really must have buzzed off. I blame my exams

Tiffany's interview with Brad Pitt or "Beulaedeu Piteu" as he's known in Korea.

^Sooyoung's gonna be extra jealous :roflmao

Didn't Sooyoung use that dress once?

He seems like a genuinely nice guy.

So, Lotte Shopping Avenue is opening a mall in my city and their official tweets hints that they're going to invite a group from SM Entertainment for the opening of the mall and said that the lead vocals had made a subgroup debut also. Chances are the group probably gonna be SNSD...or it could be Super Junior....(?) I hope for the girls tbh lol

^ JEALOUS.

Also, Yuri has jumped on the instagram bandwagon! http://instagram.com/yulyulk

Now we have taengstagram, hyostagram and yulstagram :D

Oops, hold your jealouses guys/girls :P
It turns out I was wrong. I thought it was the girls coming because the girls endorse Lotte Shopping Avenue in Korea, but in truth is the one's coming is SuJu KRY without Yesung as the their twitter confirmed. They still mentioning about performance by Korean Boyband and Girlband...but only emphasizing on the "SM Male Group which have a subgroup of three lead vocals,"

tbh If it is SNSD I want to come but I really really hate oceans of people so I probably will pass the opportunity, besides according to my sister who is more hardcore than me, on the 22nd they'll be attending a fashion event or some sort in Singapore so...if they can teleport here like Spock does they may be coming after all lol~

And wish I have instagram-able phone...I need to change my phone asap ._.

of coz TAETISEO <333 awesome..
i hope they'll make a comeback soon.
i can't wait for the rest of the girls to have instagram accounts too.

The Japanese tour was just shown on Wowow. Check the rest of the YT channel for the rest

I'm downloading the 18GB version from JPS, freeleech :D

They changed the black white stripes outfit into pink short dresses like what Ayu wore for Limited TA Tour :heart

Lingua franca preview:



:no

edit: also, rumors have it that SNSD will record this demo song called fugitive by A*M*E
https://soundcloud.com/andy-the-flames/fugitive

i just took a sneak peek to SNSD 2nd Japan Tour, if it's TV Version, it should be a "raw" vocals right.. but they sounded like almost every songs were lip-synched?

i just wanted to make sure if i heard it wrong or not.

They probably lipped.

It's badly dubbed, there's part where it seems they didn't even make an effort so sync up the audio with their mouths.

Basically all the Japanese "danced" songs were lip-synched. The only thing I can say is that I GOT A BOY was live. I didn't watch everything yet.

"Lingua Franca" in full

Sounds better than just the preview, but I still don't like it :/ maybe it will grow on me

For me this is probably their weakest single, i hope they can release a sexy single

Full LOVE&GIRLS single here

Thanks for the links!
I just heard a little piece, 'cause I always wait for the release day to hear a single (even if I download it, lol), but from what I hear I'll like Lingua Franca just fine. It's a very cute single, it's nice after all the dance tracks we had!

i'm watching the 2nd Japanese Arena Tour right now.. from FLOWER POWER until The Boys, they sounded lip-synched.
i'm on I Got a Boy now and i think they sang it live here but weird, first half of the song, they sounded lip-synch but then the 2nd half, they sounded live started from Seo Hyun's part.. hmmm weird..

did WOWOW/their company dub their real vocals in some songs?

The Nikki for this single is their lowest yet LOL. Good because everything about this single is horrendous, hopefully the sales will scare them and they won't release garbage like this single again. Everything about it is horrible..the song..the-bside...the covers..the music video..the lack of promotion..everything is just horrible.

NINKI
#6 38.90 少女時代 ＬＯＶＥ　＆　ＧＩＲＬＳ

NMB48, EXILE and Super Junior are releasing stuf the same day

Woah, I'm litterally the only one liking this stuff!XD

Idk, they need some better songs. They've been releasing some pretty offensive songs lately. :/ It always is more disappointing to me when they release bad songs since I know they're capable of so much more. They're not just one of those random talentless girl groups.

I watched like half of the girls & peace tour (which sounds like girls & piss whenever someone says it during the show.. just saying.) I'm disappointed again with the amount of lipsynching. I mean it all seems lipsynched so far and the only live parts are Tiffany's annoying screaming :S
The choreography is kind of a letdown too. Hmm.. positives, positives.. those red outfits were hot :P

you're not only one, i like LOVE & GIRLS, it sounds so cute and joyful, i enjoy watching the PV too.

yea, the girls can sing, i donno why the company made them lip synched a lot, i can understand for some songs..but this is almost every songs.. :rolleyes

You killed me. I'm gonna die from laughter, it's so true, I didn't even notice but now I can't NOT notice!XDD

One thing that always surprised me is that in the tv programs they go, and dance, and sing and do just fine, and then in the tours or stuff they go lip-sync. I mean, they proved over and over they can sing and dance at the same time. When they went to America, and they lip-synched The Boys I was so shocked, after all the 1653 korean lives, you're not gonna prove the americans you can sing very well?
(I'm loving Lingua Franca, btw, it's kinda of peaceful and delicate, and calm, and cute adbhsg, love it! <3)

I'm guessing its because they are usually more tired on tours, imagine flying around and singing every single day several time a day, makeup, hair, clothes etc. When you're tired your voice loses strength, so instead of using their last energy on singing, I'm guessing they're using it on dancing, and then lipsync instead. No idea about the Madison Square performance though, it was just one day..

1st Day
#6
Sales: ???

Wow, the NINKI was right, no top 5 for this cute single.
