The song was good until they started singing. From then on everything went downhill. I came to like Hoot, but I can't see myself starting to like this. It will sell physically well bc it's SNSD, but the digital sales won't match Oh!.

From what I've heard so far of the album tracks, I like "Trick" the most, but the rest is rather boring.

Edit: Track 7-11 are better too.

I am giving props to the vocalists of THE BOYS. (Taeyeon, Jess, Seohyun)
its apparent how they divided the lines for the stronger singers and those not. Pity Tiff didnt sing...probably because she was already rapping from months ago...:/

edit: TRICK is awesome!!!!!!!! ^^^
and yay for ballads Spring Day and Sunflower

The album so far is so amazing obviously except the boys itself !

the song is not snsd at all and the rapping is gross and everything is mess omg teddy whatever spent a long time doing this song especially that most of the song is "GIRLS BRING THE BOYS NOW I WANNA VOMIT DANCE RIGHT NOW " . OMG sorry i feel like I'm anti SNSD it's my opinion afterall the album so far is so good , the boys it's not like the worst song i've ever heard but it's really bad the English sounds better , I really hope for a miracle the makes me love the song

but okay the album is really great and that what matters

Btw, here is the translation to How great is your love, written by Sooyoung

Quote:
봄날 (How great is your love)
The whole world brightens at your smile,
like the spring day,
Making me dream again

On the day where sunlight glitters
Clasping my fingers in yours
Walking while matching our feet

Walking in front of you
At times suddenly turning around
Looking at your face that stares at me
My eyes are dazzled

Listening to the sound of spring
Walking along the path with blooming flowers
If summer comes and it rains
Walk on only looking at the rainbow
Even when the autumn passes and winter comes
We will walk on together
Feeling the warmth coming from your hands
How great is your love

I had been waiting for the love
Love like the sky, to come to me

On the day where star lights are shinning
Walking while matching the melody of singing birds
Like the secrets of the season
Repeating, come and go
Feeling the love that never changes
My eyes are dazzled

Listening to the sound of spring
Walking along the path with blooming flowers
If summer comes and it rains
Walk on only looking at the rainbow
Even when the autumn passes and winter comes
We will walk on together
Feeling the warmth coming from your hands
How great is your love

You give shinning lights to me
Me who is exhausted in this world
At the end of this narrow path where we walk together
Even if winter comes again
If your hands are holding mine
The world will be spring days to me
How great is your love

How great is your love
Trans: @imwhywhy
beautifully written. I hope they will let her (and other girls) write lyrics more.

OMG
I just woke up because I slept too early and everyone's been spazzing about the album
I'm downloading the album from BF and waiting to properly review it,
If my predictions for the title track is right, I'll probably end up in the same boat with Sarah, TomPunks, Twinkle ! and freedreamer lol

But the rest of the album tracks are just great! I love what I'm hearing so far

I'm not comparing them to other artists. I think that's ridiculous. It prevents you from enjoying music for what it is.

I think The Boys is really catchy and a good dance song. They looked absolutely stunning in the music video.
Especially Sunny, who is just rocking that hairdo. I wish it wasn't a wig.

I have yet to hear the other songs from the album, but from reading all of your reactions, I'm very excited to hear them!

lol it's the exact opposite for me

The song has grown on me and I don't want to yank my earphones to go wash my ears anymore so .. progress ! I still hope SM never hires Teddy again though.

YES MIRORO AND MUSIC .. TELEPASI IS AMAZING !!

Which songs do you guys want them to perform on the comeback stage ? I vote for TRICK (BEST TRACK ON THE ALBUM HANDS DOWN), Telepathy, OSCAR, or Top Secret.

Oh! or the Japanese one? the singles on Oh! were very good but some of their worst most embarrassing songs are on that album. still love their Japanese album, but this one is just so much better.

I pretty much would be happy with any of the songs except for the korean version of Mr. TAXI.. now that would just be a letdown if they did that. I'd love a Telepathy performance but I think they will choose one of the cute songs though for variety. like how they did Etude+Genie and My Best Friend + Hoot. so I'm hoping for Vitamin!

Although I just purchased both of those Albums, I was referring to "Oh!" in that post.
