SNSD's BAD GIRL Over On The Jukebox

[koganbot]

SNSD's "Bad Girl" reviewed over on the Singles Jukebox; I love the song, but most others don't consider it bad enough.

Strangely, no version I could find of the official vid had adequate sound, including the one uploaded by SM Entertainment, so I decided if the fidelity wasn't going to be high I might as well use a "live" performance. [EDIT: Well

I don't comprehend how they did that color change at 1:30 of "Bad Girl." It's lighting, I guess, the material a different color under different-colored bulbs. It doesn't look as if they could have spliced two separate performances.

This is the first time TSJ has reviewed a k-pop single I haven't consciously heard before.

(X-Cross, not this.)

Thanks Maddie. I was wondering if anyone other than Mat and Katherine had even heard the same song I'd heard.

Hard to think that the designation "bad" has any potency left on the American side of the Pacific. People want the word still to map out some area or stance of opposition, or at least discontent, but when the stance is lauded continually by conformists of all types, from dumb thugs to teacher's pets, it's difficult to believe in anymore. But I suppose it's always new to someone. I'm wondering if all the "follow me" songs and tropes in K-pop might be a sign that in K-pop people are at least a bit unsure of where they're going, and a little scared, and excited.
