[10.01.28] 2nd Album "Oh!" (full album p.7)

[lollipopgirl]

Two of my friends bought Oh! at the music store yesterday (I didn't coz its $22 & I'll stick with my $14 thank you ) and they came with a free poster (small version of the official) which one of them gave me They were both gonna give me their cards too but both got kitten (whut?!) so I only 'took' one, but still YAY~ I really hope she doesn't come in mine
The official poster is pretty big but I don't think its HUGE, they had the Genie poster too and its much bigger than it.

One of them only bought it coz while we were there they played Oh! and she liked it, otherwise I'm sure she wouldn't have haha.

[kuno_thunder]

I'll happily take your duplicate Kitten. Then I wonder what I'll do if her card comes with MINE.

[Fenrir]

Watch now!

[ebc]

Yuri I love youuuuu!~

[0508]

I love Yul too!
Man, now THAT's an example of EXCELLENT singing.

[daigong]

I GOT CHILLS!!! That was so touchingly fucktacular.

how'd they get on that house? lol that sets amazin

[thatonezombie]

I for one appreciate the adidas boots 

[zoolander]

I'm kinda pissed they did Star Star Star right when Taeyeon can't sing. They couldn't wait a week or two? Reminds me when they waited forever to do the Tiffany K.Will special stage, then they finally did it right when she had vocal nodules. -___-

I appreciate the boots/socks, they were awesome. Outfits looked like they were suited up for a really hot powder puff or rugby game!

I think Hyoyeon messed up the lyrics and they all cracked up.




K.Will was co DJing with Taeyeon on Chinchin and asked each of them their favorite song on the album. Yuri and Seohyun picked Forever. Taeyeon, YoonA, Jessica, Hyoyeon picked Boys & Girls and Tiffany picked Starx3. When he asked about the black soshi at the end of the video they said it was a secret. He also asked why Yuri's thank you was so short. She explained that there were too many people she wanted to thank, so after alot of thinking she made a simple message with all the sincerity in her heart. I love that! cr: nincomboob

[zoolander]

They sang Star Star Star on SST. Taeyeon and Yuri are back to singing live this time too! But now Sunny is sick...

They were so playful today.

I heard that  Sooyoung said yesterday that  those people who weren't oppa fans and couldn't relate to Oh! would just have to wait for a bit because something would be coming soon and it would make oppa fans feel betrayed.

So the 2nd single is coming, eh? I don't know which song from the album could give that effect. I don't think it'll be Show! anymore since they've performed it a lot already and the other fast songs seem too happy for the dark image. And in that news, they peg the dark image as "Singer SNSD" so the song should show more singing skills.

I've predicted Oh! promotion to with encore cons, maybe it will end sooner than I thought.

Could Rayle be right?!

Oh man, the new Kara teaser pic is fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine. Skanky Shidae from the end of the Oh MV better step up their game.with lesbian makeout session.

[daigong]

what's oppa fans? Like you mean Demi Moore?

So the 2nd single is coming, eh? I don't know which song from the album could give that effect.

It should be Star Star Star * * *!! are they gonna do another video?

[Iamabowl]

on Fun... what's the classical music piece the sample comes from?

nevermind, found it: Luigi Boccherini: Minuetto

Another interesting post from silis7noy2 at Soompi;

Most Mubank wins are about 10,000 Kchart points so 20K+ really is an incredible number. Be proud that only very few kpop acts can achieve that kind of score. And under optimum condition SNSD can actually approach 30,000 Kchart points (There's really only one other team in all of kpop who can possibly match that kind of score).

The huge album(10628) and digital(7442) points obviously indicate SNSD's top power in those areas. But more interesting are the other points.

The broadcast point of 2509 is based on the count of how many times Oh! was broadcasted on TV and radio. Top hits actually have similar airplays so then why does Oh! have significantly mores points than other songs? Besides the regular play of the song Oh!, it also includes occurences like Oh! covers, parodies, being used as bgm in shows etc. Any version of Oh! that was played for more than about 30 seconds is included. SNSD songs always get extra high broadcast counts because of these extra broadcasts. Comedians and guests on variety shows imitate SNSD dances and they get counted... this is an important barometer of song's public popularity in Korea. Gee was phenomenal in this regard. According to Airmonitor, one of the companies that track this broadcast data, a usual top hit song last year had around 2000 total Air Monitor points on average. Gee had more than 6000 points. Although Oh! won't approach Gee's levels yesterday's Mubank point of 2509 indicate Oh! is destined for its own success.

The number we the fans are most proud of is the viewer preference points of 2110. This is voted by both fans and public so it's impossible to get high points unless you have support from both the fans and the public. The all time high scores for Mubank viewer pref points are dominated by SNSD. Most idol groups have many fans but no public support. Many solo artists have public support but little fans. I can't stress enough how awesome it is to have a huge fanclub and huge public support at the same time. In kpop, artist who achieves this only comes about once or twice in a decade.

Just...wow.

[zoolander]

I always thought their viewer polling numbers were amazing since it's random polling of viewers not fans stuffing votes. Genie was #1 in viewer preference for like 12 weeks.


This seems interesting. I guess she's is a TaeNy fan? lol

Here's some tidbits from the last few radio appearances courtesy of Nincomboob

- They sang Oh! LIVE. Hyoyeon and Yuri did some cheap dancing, lol.

- It was Sooyoung's 21st birthday! She wore a large bow for the occasion.

- Sunny could not be there as she was very sick.

- Seohyun's graduation was also talked about. She was asked which unnie took care of her the best during the times when it was difficult to study for school and do promotions. She said all of them took care of her but Tiffany especially, because she gave her a graduation present (a bookbag).

- They were asked if they have any new talents to show off. Sooyoung did a very short voice impersonation of a character from the current airing drama: Pasta, as well as a Kim Nayoung impersonation. Hyoyeon did a spoof of CNBlue's song.

- Randomly, Tiffany's socks she was wearing were turned into a prize for a listener to win, haha!

- They were then asked what type of shows they would be good at or would want to be cast in. Hyoyeon said she would be good at Invincible Youth (and other reality shows) to which Tiffany also added that you must watch Hyoyeon for awhile in order to see her true charms (like we saw in Hello Baby). She then did a little self-promoting for herself to some music.

Besides doing her musical, Jessica would also like to do a reality show. She also did a little request for any PDs out there.

Seohyun would like to do a musical or voice acting/narration. She did self-promoting with a feel as a voice-actor. She freaked out a bit because it was embarrassing, lol. She did well though, since her voice is very clear.

- They talked about Oh! next. They were asked if they practiced on their expressions. Yuri commented that Seohyun was no joke when it came to practicing! Hyoyeon added that Seohyun practiced late at night, facing the mirror working on her expressions and gestures and it really paid off as it translated nicely during stage performances and the music video. Seohyun, being her modest self said that she did it because the unnies are so good that she should practice in order to do well too. In her opinion, Yuri and Sunny are the best at expressions and gestures.

- They were asked if they practice on expression by themselves or together. They said that they do both. Hyoyeon says they do it alone but with members around. Whenever they practice together, they don't pay too much attention on each other. One time, she watched Yuri practice and she felt her hand and feel curl up in embarrassment.

- They sang Star Star Star LIVE! YoonA was too embarrassed to face the front during her narration part in the beginning. Sooyoung and Seohyun crowded around her just to mess with her. You can hear them laughing, lol.

- Next corner was to pick members that are good or bad examples during certain situations or certain things.

- First was good or bad examples getting camera-selfishness (preparing for the camera). Taeyeon said Yuri is a good example of camera-selfishness because she has a nice body and so when they wore hot pants during TMYW, they put some oil on their legs to make them more attractive. To Taeyeon, when Yuri puts it on her legs it looks really good. Yuri confessed that when the others put some on, she puts on another coat of oil, lol. Taeyeon chose herself as a bad example because she put on too much one time. As a result, the oil ended up getting on the floor during a performance and the others would slip over the oil whenever they came towards the area that Taeyeon was in and at times her shoes came off because the oil was too slippery.

Damn. I remember their shoes were always flying off. The oil makes it sound hot.

- They were asked who else is a bad example and YoonA chose Sunny when it comes to facial expressions because she does too much. Sooyoung added that Sunny has a really pretty smiling face however in Oh! she over-exaggerates it too much and it looks really bad. lol

- A question was brought in by a listener: Who do you think will be the first to get a boyfriend/lover?

None of them could not really reply.

They switched the question up: Who do you think will not be the first to get a boyfriend/lover?

They all chose Sooyoung because previously she was spouting off the fact that she would be a good example of a lover/girlfriend.

- Next, who would be a good example during vacation (like who would be good at having a fun vacation). Jessica picked Tiffany because she is good at spending lots of money, haha. She said during a time they were together in New York (for Factory Girl) for work, but it felt more like a vacation because they had fun eating expensive things and Tiffany bought whatever she wanted.

They went a bit off-topic and talked about how none of them are really stingy. Hyoyeon said that what surprised her was when Seohyun said she would pay for a meal that they had together one time (along with YoonA and Nicole from KARA). When asked why she paid for the meal, Seohyun just said that she just wanted to pay for it and the fact that usually the unnies always pay for it. YoonA is also one who paid for a meal before since the unnies always pay. Hyoyeon felt moved once when YoonA randomly bought her a sticker-book because it reminded her of Hyoyeon (since she likes stickers) when she saw it.

Anyhow, back to topic. Yuri chose Seohyun as a bad example during a vacation because she seems like one who would not want to stay up at night, like she would have a strict curfew.

They go off-topic once again when Shindong said that it would probably change if they drank alcohol (since all of them are of drinking age). Tiffany gets excited, lol.

Seohyun: That's what I'm really worried about!

Jessica: This is something that Seohyun would really worry about (being 20)!

Shindong: Oh really?

Jessica: Since she's 20. She would be like, "Oh what should I do about drinking? And guys?"

Shinyoung: Seohyun, just down the bottle!

Seohyun: (sighs disapprovingly)

Shindong: Have you not drank yet?

Seohyun: I haven't yet.

Hyoyeon: We trust Seohyun though (if she drank) because she's a very proper child.

Shinyoung: Nah, even those kinds of people can become totally different if they drink!

Yuri/Tiffany: We will anticipate it when it happens!

Seohyun: I really don't want to end up like that kind of person!

Going back on topic, Sooyoung says that Seohyun isn't actually strict during vacations, the one who would be strict and has a ahjumma-style (old lady style) is Taeyeon! Taeyeon admits that she doesn't really like going out that much and she would rather stay home.

- Next, ? -not quite sure what the statement was for the good or bad example but, Seohyun says that Tiffany is the good example because she has a very loud voice. So when Seohyun goes to wake up the others in the morning, she'll wake up Tiffany first and Tiffany will wake up everyone else with her loud voice. Yuri is the bad example because she'll wake up but she's so sleepy she won't help others wake up and go down to leave herself without helping others wake up. YoonA complained that Yuri left once without waking her up.

Yuri: That's not it! I just think that I'm always the last one to wake up. And as for YoonA, I did go to wake her up! She just didn't wake up! There's been alot of times when that happened.

- Maybee asked what Seohyun got as presents for graduating. She said she got a bookbag from Tiffany. Maybee asked if anyone else got her anything. Hyoyeon said that they just gave her their love and kisses, lol.

- Sooyoung said she received many happy birthday wishes by everyone and many many fan letters and birthday cards which she loves getting. She also said that Tiffany bought her a cocktail as well, lol!

- Maybee says that Tiffany takes care of the others well. Tiffany says it's because they are her family.

- Jessica's musical was talked about. Apparently, all of them have gone to see her perform except Yuri. Yuri says she will eventually.

Hyoyeon went on to say that first it was embarrassing watching Jessica perform, acting all girly and stuff, but she did well. She says that only the SNSD members were loud and rowdy during the performance while everyone else was quiet, haha! Because they were so loud, Jessica heard them and tried hard not to laugh during her performance.

- The discussion of drinking alcohol came up. And Hyoyeon brought up the time Tiffany bought Sooyoung a cocktail for her birthday again.

Apparently, they all met up at a cafe after their schedule and ate. That is when Tiffany bought Sooyoung a cocktail and all of them had a taste of it.

Since Seohyun came late and the fact that she has never drank alcohol before, they all decided to play a small prank on her telling her to drink the cocktail saying it was a fruit smoothie. Seohyun drank the fruity top part (?) and Tiffany told her not drink the watery bottom part (where the alcohol was), but Seohyun said she'd try it and said she liked that part more, hahaha!

Tiffany then told her if she wanted to know a secret and Seohyun replied in a slightly drunk fashion, "What is it unnie?" Then Tiffany told her that the drink was really a cocktail. Seohyun was fine up until she found out she was drinking alcohol, her face then started turning red and was getting dizzy, lol.

They all said it was okay since she was with all the unnies and thought she was really cute. They even took pictures! haha~

- Maybee asked who is good at drinking? Sunny chose Tiffany. Sooyoung said that Tiffany did a shot and Seohyun added that it was really Tiffany that drank all of the cocktail, lol. Of course it's all okay since they're all of drinking age, ^^;

- Before they played Star Star Star, YoonA talked about how she had to record several times for her narration part to get the right feeling. There was adorable YoonYul action going on while the song was playing! Yuri bopped YoonA on the forehead but quickly started rubbing it. Then YoonA fake punched Yuri back, lol

- After the song ended YoonA complained that Yuri hit her!

YoonA: Yuri always says she loves my forehead and really wants to hit it because she likes it so much. She always taps it and touches it.

Maybee: Usually it's a 'pat pat' but this time was more like 'whap'!

Tiffany: Yeah this time it was too hard...

Sooyoung: Yuri even hits my butt!

YoonA: Yeah she does that to all the members.

Yuri: No no, YoonA's forehead is so loveable...

YoonA: I'm mad this time!

Maybee: It's so red!

Yuri: (goes to rub YoonA's forehead to console her)

YoonA: (fake cries)

Sooyoung: Sunny bites our hands!

Seohyun: That's right

Maybee: Really? Sunny bites you guys?

Sunny: Their hands look really biteable...

Hyoyeon: All these kids are weird...

Sunny: I-I'm weird?

Tiffany: Hyoyeon butt-pokes us!

- Kim Choding (Hyoyeon) and Im Choding (YoonA) are exposed as the most childish members. They become the ones who create the fun atmosphere. Sunny becomes the Height Choding (her height makes her a kid).

- They play Forever next. Again, some YoonYul action~ As well as some JeTi (with oranges) ^^

- Seohyun was picked to do an announcement. While the weather report was announced by some other guy, Yuri felt up YoonA's forehead again. YoonA then tries to shield it with her headphones. Even after the announcements as they are wrapping up the show, Yuri tries again to feel YoonA's forehead! xD
