Music video: Girls' Generation - Gee

I liked how the girls were depicted as mannequin's in a window. That about sums up the group: manufactured. I feel wrong calling them a girl group. They're more like a clan, totalling 9 members. Let's see how long they last. Ain't no group of nine girls gonna last more than a couple of years - at least not with the original members. Back stage fall outs and stiletto beat downs are in the futures of every girl group. Though presumably the girls of Girls' Generation would think twice before doing anything that could jeopardise their careers. I doubt the manager of the Girls generation would not think twice about switching chicks out the group and replacing them with the quickness. It's not like there's anything strikingly individual about any of them.

"Gee"'s video is a good 'un. It's nothing amazing or ground breaking, but it was fun to watch with all the cuteness, playfulness and bright colours.

And the song? I love it. The beat is absolute fire. And even though I do not understand a word of the lyrics, I found myself semi-singing along to the chorus. I don't think I've ever been so sprung on a K-pop record before. I thought the Wonder girls' "Nobody" was hot, but Girls' generation's "Gee" shits all over that. The girls did a great job with this song, but as I listen to it I keep thinking about how an artist like Crystal Kay would've shut this whole song down. Her vocals would've set the song off in a big way. Even the likes of Amerie would've done wonders with this song, as the 80s vibe would've suited her to a tee.

This song is my jam right now. I bloody love it!
