I liked 'Genie'. I still bump it every once in a while.

I dunno if the US public are going to warm up to them and this single 'The Boys', though. It kinda takes you back to the days when Backstreet Boys, NSYNC were popular, and Britney's early stuff. I mean, boybands and girl groups are still all the rage in S-Korea, Japan, and China, but in the West it kind of disappeared around 2004. I don't think it brings anything new to the American audience, except for the novelty of SNSD being a nine-member all-Korean girl group.

But I like them okay. They got a couple of good voices among them, too. Would be cool to see Fany or Sica go solo in the US market one day. But maybe they'll just choose the security of their Korean fanbase instead.

I do agree however I think they kinda resembles the pussycat dolls in their latest song. Granted they arent as sexy as PCD but i think theres a novelty factor in them. I believe if anyone were to succeed in the US market is them. THey have dedicated fandase all over the world

I just noticed here in the Netherlands a radio station, FunX, picked up on their single 'The Boys'. Lot of teenagers and twens in the big cities listen to this station, so that's a promising beginning.

sethysquare, I suppose you're also into other K-Pop artists if you listen to Girls Generation?
