TWICE debuted in Japan some weeks ago and their best album did pretty good on the charts. They even appeared on Music Station.

Listening to the Japanese versions on #TWICE, I find it so distracting how they've mastered the tracks. They've used the English and Korean lines from the original versions but the new Japanese lines have been mastered totally differently, it's like they don't fit. And Momo's lines in the Japanese TT are just painful lol

^^I noticed the same with the strange mastering. I have to say, only Knock Knock worked for me somehow, still not as good as the Korean.

^^ Yeah, at least it's cute Momo, Mina and Sana are allowed to act as 'leaders' for the group with all of their Japan promo.

I'm still listening to the Japanese versions as they're available on Spotify and I want to support them. (Also I've only realised that TWICE having a thread has made me actually want to post on AHS, thanks Maemi!

I'd have to agree about the mastering on the Japanese tracks especially for their debut song. It sounds like cut and paste and lacks the same energy and fun as the Korean version. I am not the biggest fan of TWICE (can't stand Signal) but I was hoping more effort could have gone into the Japanese versions of the songs. Knock Knock is ok though.

Signal is very weird at the beginning but has a very catchy refrain.

It's not really good. Not bad either, but not as enjoyable as the others.

And then they released One More Time.

I think I prefer Likey over One More Time.

I adore Sana's part.
