Girl’s Generation/SNSD Article: SNSD's new song "Divine" and one of the most UNFAIR line distributions EVER

SNSD's new song "Divine" and one of the most UNFAIR line distributions EVER

posted by pretty_angel92

And i thought "Indestructible" had a bad line distritubion....geez

come back, "Indestructible". you're forgiven

ok, first, let's talk about the song

i think it's nice and all, but very forgetable. i had to hear più than 5 times in a row, to fully enjoy it.
can't believe this is going to have an MV
it's just like..SO BLAND. one of the blandest SNSD ballads, tbh.
i don't understand why so many people are saying "OMG, IT'S WONDERFUL"

Now let's sposta on to the main issue of this article

OK, I GET IT. Yoona, Hyoyeon and Yuri are NOT AMAZING SINGERS. but this was beyond ridiculous. i really felt sorry for these girls and if i was one of them, i would be so frustrated.

before i reveal the line distribution, let's talk about the pros

1-Once again, Sooyoung sings a lot(for a supposed sub-vocal, that is). seems to me that Sooyoung is now a LEAD vocal, at least in JAPAN. and i really like that. i'm so proud of her and she truly deserves these lines, because she improved a lot

2-Altough, i don't like Jessica's voice, she definitely returned in this song...she doesn't sing più than TaeNy, but still, her lines are quite long and she gets a high note, which was something we didn't see for months

3-Many Tiffany in this song and at first i was like "oh...expected". but then i compared it to "Indestructible" and believe me, it's a LOT BETTER. Tiffany isn't so proeminent in this song, even though she has lots of lines and adlibs
(and i Amore Tiffany ok? she's my 4h preferito member. but i'm just saying what i feel, regarding the tons of lines she has now in every snsd song. i know it's not her fault, anyway, i should blame the producer)

4-Taeyeon has much più lines that showcase her powerful voice. i don't know about te guys, but she was practicaly non existent on Indestructible (and many other songs from their third japanese album), so it's nice to see our main vocal back

now for the cons

1-TTSJ feat SSYYH. basically.....
i get that they're the best singers but this was TOO MUCH.

2-Sunny's lack of lines...
really, i was shocked. i don't like her voice, tbh, but i almost can't hear her. isn't she a LEAD vocal anyway? shouldn't she be Canto the same amount of lines as Tiffany and Seohyun, at least?
she even sings less than Sooyoung(not the first time, anyway, but it's always surprising)

3-Hyoyeon, Yoona, Yuri don't even get a full line, but a WORD. i don't know what happened here, but it was pathetic. and it doesn't even last 3 seconds. poor girls. SERIOUSLY

4-the song. like i said, it's pretty bland and forgetable. still pretty, though. lol

pretty_angel92 DaniMF what irritates me is that TTS are still the main focus on the OT9 songs. they already have a SUBUNIT, FOR GOD'S SAKE. LET THEM SING ALL THE LINES THEY WANT ON THE SUBUNIT, but DON'T MAKE THEM SING THE MAJORITY OF THE OT9 SONGS.....please?????????? i mean, it's so disrespectful. i wouldn't mind all the TTS on the OT9 songs, IF the other members had SUBUNITS aswell..... but tbh, at this point, every OTP song is TTS (and sometimes Sic) >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> the others....

pretty_angel92 sweet_yuri besides that....i also think Yuri is already tired of being in snsd, tbh. and maybe that's why her lines are decreasing...and decreasing..... looks like SM doesn't really care about her anymore. because she doesn't care about snsd either. she looks so bored lately and her singing and dancing got worse

pretty_angel92 Gretulee loool i laughed at this part "imagine how pathetic it looks when they come to record a song" but it also makes me sad at the same time. it must be really awful for them to come to the recording studio, just to sing a 3 seconds' line and then leave o___O yeah, i'm really proud of Sooyoung and i agree, i think she's a lead in Japan now. i guess her fluency also helps but she really did improve a lot sucks that she's not treated the same way in SK

dinsangi Pretty_angel92 for once i actually agree with you..... i wish sm would focus more on the other members except tts i mean they got their own sub-unit,own variety show, and now most of the lines in snsd's song. tht is just too much

pretty_angel92 sandra311 lool i can't remember the song either, and i heard it like..10 times? it shows how bland it is and i absolutely agree with you. i would add Jessica to TTS, though. this song was basically those 4

pretty_angel92 dinsangi ahah, thanks yeah, i think it's really unfair. if they already have a freakin' SUBUNIT, they should let the other 6 members sing more on the OT9 songs

vinxinc The only thing unfair is Sunny getting too few lines but I think HyoYulYoon don't deserve more lines, esp in a ballad like this. Their lines were very limited in Time Machine and AMLIFY as well.

BlackPearlLuver Freaking SM. Tbh, I AM happy Sooyoung is kinda becoming the new lead vocal for snsd Japanese songs. But sm, seriously, I'm getting sick of this unfair treatment. I mean, I'll rather the. Having a subunit with HyoYulYoon even though I won't agree with it. These three girls deserve some much more. I would have quit the band if I were them. But what really irks me, is the fact that now, in MV's, even Yoona doesn't get as much screen time as before. It's the main singers. They seem to be in front of dances as well. Like gosh, sm doesn't even care about HyoYulYoon. I freaking hate sm even more than before. My bias

Tippany This isn't even new anymore, if you look at it for the past years since their debut they never really get fair line distributions either whether it's a Japan or Korea release.

Tiagih2 Sunny didn't sing less than Sooyoung, they sang [b]equal[/b] amounts of lines, there is a difference. Yes there was a lot of Taeyeon, Jessica, Seohyun, and Tiffany but honestly that is what happens when members don't improve thier singing. Yoona, Hyoyeon, and Yuri (as well as SooSun) need to improve thier singing if they want more lines.

vinxinc ^ I don't think Sunny needs to improve her singing. Sunny has the best ballad voice (as proved in songs like Time Machine and Born to Be a Lady). They just decided to give Seohyun and Tiffany more lines, mostly because of the current TTS promotion. I think Sunny could sing way better than those two.

pretty_angel92 vinxinc i still think they deserve more lines. they might not be the best singers but they deserved a longer line, at least

pretty_angel92 BlackPearlLuver i agree

pretty_angel92 Tippany true. but it's getting worse now

pretty_angel92 Tiagih2 she actually kinda did because one of her lines, is a random adlib, at the beginning of the song. while Sooyoung gets 3 full lines but that's the thing...Hyoyeon did improve. Yoona not so much lol. and Yuri got worse but Hyoyeon did improve

Tiagih2 ^^I do and that isn't to say she has is a bad singer. There isn't as much demand of her voice as say Jessica, Taeyeon, Tiffany, and lately Seohyun. IMO if any member wants more lines they have to earn them. I don't think (and I could be wrong ) its a TTS promotion because why would Japan care about TTS, unless SM is going to pull a KRY ^ If they were to sing that life, that is line she would have to sing, abdlibs are lines too or else people wouldn't say Tiffany has too many lines. Sooyoung gets more singing lines but she didn't anymore than Sunny, because I heard Sunny three times just like I heard Sooyoung three times. Hyoyeon is still a bad singer in my opinion compared to the others, same with Yoona, and Yuri was never a good singer anyway.

DaniMF Hyoyeon improved since last comeback, but Japan hates her and they can't give her lanes. Also SK. There is no other explanation.

Yuna1331 ^ Why do Japan hates her, she's actually good. Yeah HyoYoonYul are not lead singers but they should give them at least ONE sentence! This is TOO unfair guys, let's agree with the author

Tiagih2 ^its not that they hate hyoyeon, Hyoyeon doesn't get much anyway so I guess they follow suit. They aren't lead singers so they shouldn't get that many lines anyway, they are the dancers. I think Divine could have distributed a bit more evenly because the song wasn't all that challenging, but on the same note i don't think any of the dancers should have more lines than any of the singers.

sgsone I do agree...but it's def not fany's fault,I hate how people blame Fany on it but I would rather Fany sing the lines and give all th adlibs to YYH,I would def rather that but!Idols actually discuss lines distribution together so...if SNSD thinks Fany deserves more...she does...well maybe not.Personally I don't like their ballads generally..boring...and could only hear little of YYH...

SoshiSones9 Yoona has 2 lines she has an adlibs here.. Woo~

SoshiSones9 And also I think this will be the new rank of vocal skills.... Main vocalists- Taeyeon,Seohyun,Tiffany,Sunny (Not sure to Sunny) Lead vocalists- Sooyoung,Yoona,Yuri,Hyoyeon I wish that will be their position, or SooNa will be lead vocalists...Pls SM

SoshiSones9 Overall: Even not their solo, and with the adlibs Taeyeon- 6 lines Jessica- 5 lines Sunny- 4 lines Tiffany- 7 lines Hyoyeon- 2 lines ( even not her solo) Yuri- 2 lines Sooyoung- 4 lines Yoona- 3 lines Seohyun- 4 lines 1. Tiffany 2.Taeyeon 3.Jessica 4.Seohyun,Sunny,Sooyoung 5.Yoona 6.Yuri,Hyoyeon I really think Soo and Yoong are vocalists,not sub-vocalists

SoshiSones9 Sometime Yoona has more lines too because Japan loves her.. But im not saying that Japan hates the other members..
