Monday Music Battle

Today I present:

GIRLS GENERATION VS KE$HA

 

Rumor has it that the song was given to Ke$ha but was never officially released, it was leaked. SNSD/Girls Generation released it. Check out both versions here and feel free to post your comments.

Monday Music Battle

We all know that there are many songs throughout time that share the same melody, beat, or even the same song all together. In my search for such music, I wanted to share these songs with you! I hope to make this a weekly or biweekly feature ^^ (I am slightly aware that I could run out of songs quickly, haha)

Duffy VS Girls Generation

Duffy's Mercy, released in 2008 from her album Rockferry. Her song was even performed on Glee.

I even get to hear this song played almost daily at work. Don't get me wrong, I really like the song, so I am not complaining.

Although it has been a major hit, the song wasn't bought by only one record company....

  Girls Generation released their album, I Got A Boy, January 1st of this year (2013, in case you are like me and still writing the wrong year a month into it). Dancing Queen... n,o not any relation to ABBA song whatsoever... is one of the tracks. While I find the song pretty fun and catchy, the music video just doesn't do much for me. These girls, er.. um... women, are in thier 20's now. Is so much aegyo (acting cute/playful) really necessary?! What happened to 'Girls bring the boys out'? I absolutely love Girls Generation, but they can't stay 'girls' forever.

Let me know what you think of the songs, and um... the music video. :P

Enlistment and Combacks and Psy, OH MY!

... In my Dorothy (lions and tigers and bears, OH MY!) voice... you know... from the Wizard of OZ....

It has been announced that Jungmo, the guitarist from TRAX, will be enlisting for mandatory military service at the end of the month, but he will be going into public service due to health issues. The band will be on hiatus until Jungmo and Jay both complete their service, but I will be looking forward to their return.

 And the nominees for MTV EMA 2012 Best Asia Act are... *drum roll* ... Super Junior and Han Geng. Well they are two of the nominees. I have to mention Han Geng since he was a part of Super Junior. He is doing great with his solo career and I must give him props for that. Super Junior has come a long way throughout the years. Their recent performances have been amazing. Many people missed seeing Siwon during a lot of performances as they promoted Sexy, Free & Single, but how about SPY?! I think the choreo and the concept suited them very well. Yes my favorite parts have to be when Kyuhyun pulls his collar up to hide his face and then Ryeowook uncovers his when they trade places near the beginning and the end, when Sungmin 'shoots' the audience/camera. Haha. It shows that SJ works very hard and are devoted to ELF, their fans. I seriously hope they win! I mean, they weren't selected as ambassadors for Gangnam district for nothing. ^^
