WG performance of Kissing You was awesome. It was a really nice change of pace and they seemed pretty comfortable singing that style, while they added their own little touches to it.

Haha, somehow I really believe praise when it's coming from you. You don't dish it out for nothing. ;)

But. Just WOW. They did so well. They sang SNSD's music better than they sing their own music... which kind of begs the question, is SNSD's music easier to sing? I will not say yes or no because I could get roasted for the answer either way. I could get roasted for even asking the question. o.o;;

So Hee actually sounded really great for once. Kissing You is a good style for her voice because it doesn't make her voice seem weak, like the songs they usually sing. And they all looked so, so, so cute in those white outfits. The cute is epic. It's such a different look for them!

SNSD did really well singing Tell Me, too! The only problem I had was Yuri rapping... I really like her (she's one of my favorite SNSD girls) and she did well in her own right, but I think the only person I will accept rapping those lines is Yoo Bin. It was too different for me.

Edit: sh15uya, you with all your generous downloads, are my unsung hero.  :heart: Seriously, people don't thank you enough. Thank you.

Oh well I only listened to Irony, Tell Me, So Hot, Ee Babo and Wishing on a Star and based on that I would say WG songs are more difficult to sing that SNSD's(well Wishing on a Star not that much), but I personally still think SNSD's vocals are better, just an opinion though.

^ You should check out some of their other music! They really sing a wide variety of music which is one thing I really like about them.

I just noticed that So Hee's little yellow skirt in the Kissing You performance is very see-through. If they're trying to avoid the complaint that their youngest members are too sexualized, this isn't going to do it ... o.o;; Not that I personally have a problem with it, but I can imagine some people throwing a fit about it.

Well I really think it depends on the songs. A couple of SNSD's more ballady songs are harder to sing and have lots of harmonizing, but some of their poppier songs are definitely really easy, sorta like singing grade school songs. :lol: WG tends to have more 'mature' elements in their songs.

Though both have their good singers and their bad, SNSD has Taeyeon and that automatically makes them stronger vocal wise :lol: If you don't count her, you can't really say who is better when you consider the amount of members and their ages. But SunYe and YeEun can keep their own when compared to say, Jessica and Tiffany. I still think SunMi could get a bit better in the next couple years though.

:lol: sorry for analyzing so much, I don't really like comparing different artists too much, but since the subject came up my mind went crazy with thoughts... >_>

^ Haha. You're forgiven.



The end. Wait for it.  And considering she strips half her clothes off, that shouldn't be too hard for you to do. :lol: I have a feeling it's probably staged, but I still got a kick out of it.  :P

And oh my god, cutest thing ever! So Hee doing an impersonation. :D



I love the way So Hee beats the pillow in her lap when she laughs at the end. She's having a full body laughter attack there. :D

That clip was funny and cute *___* SoHee is growing for me (mostly because one of my friends LOVE her).

WG's KY was good, YeEun was the best *_* I can't stop loving that girl more and more  :heart:

One thing I noticed (or it's more what I think) their earlier performances were better then the new ones O_O I watched their debut and got blown away with everyones voices *_* Damn even SoHee sounded good *___* and then I watched their debut of Tell Me and I got blown away again *_* but . . . . . I don't get blown away like that whe I hear their voices in "So Hot" for me it feels like the got worse O___O?

^ They haven't gotten worse. The trouble is that So Hot is not the type of song that is going to showcase beautiful voices. The singing style required for it is very clipped and abrupt. If you listen to them sing "This time" though, it's clear they can really sing.

I actually thought their 'Kissing You' performance was very weak. Especially in the singing department. The girl who sung TaeYeon's high-pitched part at the end of the song made me cringe ;)

I loved WG's KY and I think this time YeEun totally stole the show, she was so wonderful and gorgeous  :heart:
Though I think they both (SNSD and WG) are best when they are on their own strongest area (for WG it's songs that never ever leave your head and for SNSD it's showing their voices in songs that put emphasis on their voices), this was nice for a change.

Very true that.

Considering you don't even know the names of the members, I can't imagine you're a fan. So you came here just to put them down?

Yeah, I agree! Ye Eun DID steal the show and I was proud of her. It was really nice to see her shine for once. :)



This is pretty damn awesome. It's the "male version" of 가져가 by Wonder Girls. If you check out otokee's videos at YouTube, she's made a LOT of male versions of different songs from Korean Girl groups, like WG, SNSD, Kara, and others. She's really good at it. She does it by lowering the pitches of the original voices. I really like what she's done with them!

Edit: There's a So Hot male version! There's nothing better than hearing a male voice rapping "All the boys be lovin' me, all the girls be hatin' me". :D

I came here to express my opinion, isn't that what message boards are for?
So I have to know their names and be a fan to express my opinion on their singing? O___o

I happen to like Wonder Girls, not as much as SNSD but still. I watched both performances, SNSD's and WG's, and was rather disappointed with the latter. I think reasonable criticism is allowed here.

^ I just think it disregards the feelings of those who enjoyed it. I didn't like some things about SNSD's performance, but I didn't run to their thread to say it. Why rain on their parade?

Edit: And forgive me if it came across like "You can't express your opinion". Not knowing their names and obviously being a SNSD fan, I assumed you had come here on a "SNSD's so much better than WG!" mission.

Edit 2: I also may be a little sensitive right now because I've been dealing with a complete dickwad on another forum, so please forgive me if that is coming through here, as well.
