Girlpower all over the music charts

[unreal.livejournal.com]

All music charts have been taken by storm with girl groups and solo singers taking top places.

On the afternoon of May 13th on the current music charts, seven songs out of top ten were dominated by female singers. Within the top ten, the only male singers were Mighty Mouth, Park Jin Young (JYP), and Ulala Session.

Solo singer IU relased a new song "Days End" on the 11th and has been in first place on the music charts with her new song. Without any broadcasting promotions, "Days End" along with her self-composed single, "Peach" has been holding the top positions since their release.

On the Melon music chart, Girls' Generation's sub-unit Taetiseo is in second place with "Twinkle" along with SISTAR's "Alone" in third place, Baek Jiyoung's new hit single "Voice" in fourth, and IU's "Peach" ranking in sixth place. Particularly, SISTAR's "Alone" has been noted to be in the top ranks despite one month of promotions have passed.

On the Mnet music chart, Baek Jiyoung is in third place with "Voice," fourth place is Taetiseo's "Twinkle", and SISTAR's "Alone" is in fifth place. In second place was Ulala Session's new song "Beautiful Night." Like other music charts, the male artists among the top ten were Ulala Session, Park Jin Young (JYP), and Mighty Mouth. Bugs music chart is no different than the other charts, with the exception of the three male artists, all of the places are occupied by female singers.

There are expectation for the charts to change by next week as popular male artists such as Leessang and Infinite will make their comeback by releasing new songs.

Twinkle sucks musically and vocally, thank God Titties TaeTiSeo don't have to worry. Korea's got their back.

okay, them sucking musically is a valid opinion (although i do disagree), but sucking vocally? are you serious? :/

Do you hear how they strain in the recording and even worse in the lives? Hurts in the ears and also makes me uncomfortable in my own throat when I imagine how it must feel in theirs when they do the adlibs.

I know, I sound like a hater, but I'm also kind of concerned that they'll continue ruining their voices with that song. Baby Steps is sometimes hard to reach for them in the low notes, but it's not harmful for their vocal cords at least.

ah, i see. tbh, to my untrained ears they do sound fine (and still mostly on point live) but yeah, i wish they wouldn't strain their voices so much :( it's especially uncomfortable to see seohyun straining to reach her high note at the end of twinkle. ia baby steps would definitely be a better song to perform live.
