I just spent over an hour trying to watch all of these and froze my computer twice, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE.
It cracks me the fuck up that in the If U Seek Amy perf Seohyun says "go to the party she's gonna go", SHE'S EVEN PROPER IN LANGUAGES SHE DOESN'T REALLY SPEAK. Also on that note, Jessica butchering "inspiration" and "negotiation" in Way Back Into Love is the most delightful thing, HAVING A LITTLE TROUBLE THERE, ARE WE? :) Her pseudo-Engrish is my favorite omg.
Also I completely forgot about Night Fever! So delightful oh my god, RENEWED EXCITEMENT FOR ROLY POLY, WHO DOESN'T LOVE DISCO.
LOL OH MY GOD I AM SO SORRY, that's really a sign that you've gone overboard huh
She is such a treasure, can't you see her being like "I don't think this is grammatically correct though" (almost typed "tho" but it didn't feel right in a Seobb context). BUT I LOVE THAT PART OF IT TOO LOLOLOL.
OH MY GOD RIGHT?!?! Idk why I always remember the stupid dance one with 2PM but mentally gloss over Night Fever, everything about it is the greatest/lamest.
I have so many other things I want to say because this post has plunged me into a fit of love for them, idek where to start! THAT TIK TOK PERF WILL ALWAYS MAKE ME LOL because omg can you even imagine the parents Jung's reaction to that, THEIR TWO BEAUTIFUL DAUGHTERS DRESSING LIKE TRASHY 90S GRUNGE REJECTS AND SINGING ABOUT HAVING PLENTY OF BEER. A beautiful family moment :') Also I love Hollaback Girl more than is reasonable, Yoona is so awkward and goofy and the "this uhhhhhhh is bananas" thing is so fucking hilarious.
Oh my god IT DOES THAT, I had so much fun digging up old performances, it's like my favorite post I've ever made! (I don't think it actually is but in terms of posts that I will specifically enjoy coming back to it's way up there...) They are the actual greatest :( BUT LOL I KNOW, IT'D BE SUCH A :|/:) MOMENT AS A PARENT, because your girls! Together! Achieving dreams! With lots of adoring fans! ...singing about being drunk all the time, whoops. And IIIIIIIIIIIIIII KNOW OMFG, but seriously just that whole sequence is so slick, I love how you can always see the next stage standing behind at the end of the next. Seobb the womanizer (...hee)! and lmfao yes "the OH is bananas", I can't.
I KNOOOOOOOW THEY SOUND SO GORGEOUS THERE, AND THE HARMONIES!
Oh my god I knew this post would be half-dead in like a week (kpop stuff gets deleted off youtube so often ugh!) but I didn't think it would start to happen mere hours after I posted! You are so sweet to find me another version though, THANK YOU!!! But seriously she looked amazing, stole the show.
OMG I HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS THAT MATCH UP WITH YOUR FEELINGS UGH I LOVE THEM SO MUCH SEOHYUN IS PERFECT TIFFANY IS PERFECT THEY ARE ALL PERFECT CAPSLOCK CAPSLOCK CAPSLOCK
Also I stayed up to watch the VMAJ live stream lol and I was fucking beside myself during their performances. With any other group all that walking around and random twirly formation changes and whatever would look stupid, but soshi makes anything look perfect idk I'm crazy ;~; And Seohyun and Sunny looked especially gorgeous
( ... )
You're not crazy there's something about them as a group, idk, like even though they aren't all great dancers they're really good at selling choreography somehow? But maybe I am delusional somehow. But man I love when kpop groups do stuff at like awards shows/that kind of thing because you get used to a v specific type of camerawork during the music shows and the people who film awards stuff are like, different! So you see different things
( ... )
Seriously so much of the time I'm like IF THIS WAS ANY OTHER GROUP...!! Like when I first saw the Mr. Taxi dance I was like da fuck, this only works because it's soshi and they're so fucking TOGETHER. ia about the music show vs. award show camera work, and it's also interesting to see the differences btwn Japanese/Korean camera work bc they both do different bizarre things lol
( ... )
i LOVE this post. i would lick all over it if i could, but then my screen would get messy, so i'm going to settle for bookmarking it :( but so much to see!!
and god yes yes yes i totally agree with you on the suits/drag concept thing, they should do more of it! it would be kind of awesome (and since guy groups find it fun to mock/dress+dance as girl groups, why not the inverse??) ALSO seohyun doing 16-going-on-17 was perfect, seriously, they (she?) couldn't have chosen a better song!
basically i love all the performances you've linked; the ones on lalala! they have never sounded better, i swear, and i totally wish they'd released that version of gee/sorry sorry/way back into love/etc as official songs ;___; and i totally love their performance of wannabe, it ranks only second behind this in terms of favourite-soshi-cover-performances-ever :D :D :D
I LOVE GIRL DRAG MORE THAN BOY DRAG because okay I feel like girls doing boy songs tend to take it more seriously? Idk with boys doing girl songs there's a 50/50 chance it just devolves into "LOL I'M WEARING A DRESS" (but sometimes it is great! Like this one, AMAZING). Anyway basically yes I agree there needs to be so much more girl drag in kpop in general and SO MUCH OF IT SHOULD BE SOSHI. And I knooooow I love that she picked an old-timey song for this round of solos too, NOT SO INTO THE CLASSIC POP STUFF, that one.
I KNOW THEY SOUND INCREDIBLE! I wish they would go back or something, I miss getting more acoustic-y stuff from them. And aaaah I love that performance too! GOD THERE ARE TOO MANY.
