1. Oh!
This song was produced by Kenzie, who also produced "Into The New World" & "Way To Go!" When it was first released, a lot of people had confused feelings. Whether to like the song or not. I liked the song at first, until I replayed it too much. But, now I love it. It's not as.. catchy as Gee or Genie, but hey, it has lots of beats to it, no? I cant believe Seohyun only had one line. But at least Sooyoung, Yoona & Hyoyeon had more lines than usual :) The choreography is actually quite cute too, Taeyeon got a dance solo. If you see the lyrics at the end, it's full of Oh's LOL Anyway, this song gets an A from me, despite the irritating "Oppa"'s :S
2. Show Show Show!
I heard they performed this at the concert. Anyway, the whole "Show Me" is kinda annoying. But, I like how their voices sound very light & .. Well, it feels like you're on clouds.. Sorta. Lots of beats too & "hush"-es xD I dont really like Taeyeon's part at the end. But JeTi's English is so.. dreamy~ HAHA, Korean-Americans ftw? ^^~ This gets an A- from me.
3. 뻔 & Fun (Sweet Talking Baby)
I actually quite like this song! The starting, especially :) It has a very fairytale feeling. I love the chorus, it's very upbeat! ROFL, "Aey aey!" x) It reminds me of "My Child" from their Genie album. (: It sounds like a very kid-dy song, not in a bad way (of course!) It's a song you can walk to, you know, while skipping & stuff HAHA. This song gets an A from me :)
4. 영원히 너와 꿈꾸고 싶다 (Forever)
Ahh, I think Yoona did the introduction? She has such a nice voice.. : Mm, Taeyeon opened the song. I'm really glad the girls got to sing ballads (That's right, not just one ballad!) in this album. Or maybe because their mini-album didn't give them much space to sing more songs. LOL. It's a wonderful ballad, sorry, I have nothing else to say, honestly. This song gets an B from me, not really "getting" to me. :S
5. 웃자 (Be Happy)
"No more worries, put on a smile~ No pain, no gain is what they say!" Lol, aww, what cute lyrics! A "rap" by JeTi xD Im really liking this song! It reminds me of Mighty Mouth & Insooni's "Smile" song. :S Ahh, finally a rap in a SNSD song by Yuri :) Hoped Hyoyeon would get a rap as well, she needs to be in the limelight more! Anyway, this song's telling you to be happy & put on a smile, if you didn't while listening to this song, you're weird D: Just kidding! :) This song gets an A from me :) (Have I been too nice with the gradings? :S)
6. 화성인 바이러스 (Boys & Girls)
This song features Key from SHINee. Oh man, Im so hoping they perform this song! :D Well, cuz I wanna see Key D: Too bad his voice got autotuned in this song. This is the song which got the whole futuristic concept thing, right? Well, I can feel it. (FYI, the translated title is Martian Virus :D) Anyway, I am loving this song! Boys boys boys & girls girls girls~ It has a very catchy feeling (like a virus? :D) This song gets an A+ from me!
7. 카라멜 커피 (Talk To Me)
This song is a duet by Jessica & Tiffany, the Korean-Americans (: I thought they were gonna sing in English though, that'd have been absolutely perfect! :D It really sounds like a song that'd be played in coffee shops (Thus, the name "Caramel Coffee" :)) I can really imagine hearing it in coffeeshops, maybe it'd happen :P But, Im just not feeling the song /: But it has a bossanova feel to me. This song gets a B+ from me.
8. 별별별 (☆★☆)
Im guessing Yoona did the narration as well? I love her voice! This song has a very Dreamgirls feeling to me :S Anyway, another ballad! Such a beautiful ballad :) I love the way Fany says "별" (: This is a definite win, best ballad of the album! The translation of the lyrics are beautiful, I'll post it when I have more time (: I can feel the sadness to this song, wow, sounds like the girls were gonna cry while singing ROFLMAO. This song gets an A+ from me!
9. 무조건 해피엔딩 (Stick Wit U)
Lol I first heard this & I thought my earphones had something wrong, cuz of the beats :S Anyway, this reminds me of HaHaHa, just more beats :) Yeah, reminds me of HaHaHa. :D This is awful... an awfully short song (Scared you there? :P), it's only 2:46 long! I, however, am not really feeling the song. But it makes you wanna jump around. Reminds me of the whole futuristic concept, as well :) This song gets a B from me
10. 좋은 일만 생각하기 (Day By Day)
This song may have the same name as the song the girls sang on the Beethoven Virus, but it isnt ;) It has a different melody & lyrics. However, i think only TaeSunSicSeo sang in this song. It'd have been nice if all of them sang! Anyway, it has a very paradise-y feeling (: Feels weird to hear this, because I love the original version. This song gets a A- from me!
11. Gee
12. Genie
I'm not review-ing the last two songs, because they are one word: EPIC. ;)
Overall grading: A- (4.3/5)
PLEASE NOTE: My reviews do not discourage you to get this album. DO BUY THE ALBUM. The songs are good. But these are just my thoughts.
Definitely ;)
