Well, the song has finally been released. Since I'm more interested in the music than the girls anyway so I'm going to focus on reviewing the song first.
I actually like the song. Although, I feel a bit off since it's not original. The song was initially done by an American artist named Ke$ha but was not released to the public. Okay, fine, SNSD might have bought the rights for the song but they should have tried to do something original. They do have songwriters right? Why can't they work their butts off and do something creative for once? Or maybe they should've created a new version of the song and not created something so strikingly similar.
I have compared Ke$ha's version and SNSD's and there is hardly a difference. I think I like Kesha's version better since it's more gritty and has more personality. The problem with SNSD's version is that it's like a karaoke version of the song with more people singing it. It's also a problem that I can't point out who sang what part of the song. This reminds me of my
desire of seeing SNSD split into two groups. What's the use of having nine girls when they sound almost all the same? I mean, Ke$ha's a solo artist and she can deliver the song better than SNSD.
All in all, I actually like the song itself. It has a nice beat and melody. It's the first song from them that doesn't make my ears bleed. But the thing is the song itself is really good so it's a given that SNSD's cover will sound good.
Anyway, Ke$ha's version will be the one that shall go into my ipod. Sorry SNSD but she did it better.
