To ensure this thread won't be closed, you must adhere to several a number of simple rules;
Please use spoilers when quoting a post with pictures and/or videos.
When posting large quantities of media (pictures or videos), please begin spoilering after the first piece. Grouping related videos in the same spoilers & labeling is recommended.
No reposting of old material unless justified
Posting any material with little or no relevent discussion accompanying it
No passion-induced flaming of each other because 'x said y sucked' etc.
Keep the expression hate of music individuals/groups to a minimal level
No 'pagetopping' in any form whatsoever, as it constitutes spam equal to posts similar to 'first'.
No vulgar fan fics or wet dream stories. It is creepy, weird, and it dehumanizes the people who you are here to celebrate/discuss.
Normal posting standards that you find throughout the rest of the site still apply and will be enforced more strictly from here forward (2012/03/11)
Due to the poor nature of this thread in the past, temporary two-day bans will occur more than often if people slip up.

I am not sure everyone here knows this but Rihanna has an island ascent when she talks. This fancam is a better live recording plus she talks a little in the beginning so you can hear it.
Like quite a few others, I used to like Adele songs until they became massively oversung etc. boo. Don't like Rihanna much either, maybe it's just me.

I like Tiffany but you have to admit that song is out of her range. It was a decent performance don't get me wrong, but it wasn't special at all and really forgettable. The only cover I liked out of those 3 was Taeyeon's, partly because I was expecting a much worse accent.

While we're on the subject of bad covers, I think Tiffany and Yuri butchering 4Men's Baby Baby (which is probably 4Men's single best song and they have quite a few good ones) when they were leaving as emcees probably takes the cake.
Bear in mind I still liked SNSD back then and was even looking forward to the performance when I saw it on the schedule. What a disaster.

In most of Taeyeon's engrish covers I've always thought she has had a decent accent.

There's obviously some Engrish, but for the most part, her covers are amazing imo.

Favorite Taeyeon cover. Surprisingly good english. Except for Jack Frost lol. The "Merry Christmas" at 1:56 is heart wrenchingly cute.
I don't give much of a shit about SNSD anymore, but that was pleasantly surprising. They sung decently in those performances on the previous page. Tiffany was extremely surprising! It was a more mellow version of the original, which is good, because the original is a pretty fatiguing song. That being said, it was clearly too rounded in presentation, which is pretty much because shes not Adele.
I like Engrish anyway. It's always cute to me.
