Girls’ Generation will release their sixth Japanese single, titled “FLOWER POWER”, on November 14th. Following the successful releases of “PAPARAZZI” and the Japanese version of “Oh!” in Japan this past year, fans can now look forward to another single in just over a month. Along with the news of its release, “FLOWER POWER” was also revealed to have lyrics that will demonstrate the “sexy” side of Girls’ Generation, contrary to the single’s title.  The lyrics describe the strategic moves between a man and a woman on the dance floor and are sung with the sound and light of a glitzy atmosphere. The song will be a dance number with a flowing baseline in 4/4 time with a sexy chorus line. The promotional picture for “FLOWER POWER”, shown above, has the girls trying to escape searchlights.

In addition to “FLOWER POWER”, Girls’ Generation’s sixth single will also feature a track titled “Beep Beep”, as well as a “digest medley” of songs from Girls’ Generation’s second Japanese album. The second Japanese album will not contain “Beep Beep”, and the track will only be available on the “FLOWER POWER” single.

Along with the news of the release of “FLOWER POWER” on November 14th, it was revealed that Girls’ Generation’s second Japanese album will be available two weeks later on November 28th.  The title of this second Japanese album is yet to be announced. The second Japanese album will come in three editions: a deluxe first press edition, a first press limited edition, and a regular CD edition.

“FLOWER POWER” Single Tracklist:

1. FLOWER POWER
2. Beep Beep
3. Untitled (song medley from second Japanese album)

Hyoyeon is looking kinda fierce on the end. I like her skirt. Maybe that's why I noticed her 1st. The color of it just pops.

Taeyeon just looks unhappy in the middle.

So basically, no Korean comeback at all this year?

Good to know.

Ok I just realized the concept is sexy. Flower Power just makes me think of hippies or something. People running around fields being free.

Cannot wait.

I actually think we might get a Korean comeback at the end of this month or early next month. They really don't promote that hard in Japan to stop them from having a comeback.

Also, I'm pretty sure Yoona cut her hair because she been hiding it for the past 2 days. And Hyoyeon is bleach blonde now .. And we know once they start changing their hair it's comeback time.

Flower Power? Really?

Ok, I get that it would probably appeal in Japan, but honestly, its sounds so juvenile. Like something you'd find plaster on a kids shirt.


Hopefully they get their act together promoting it, becuase the last two rounds of promotions have sucked and they expected people to pay a premium. Cause lets face it, they're only releasing it becuase Oh "flopped" (and by that I mean, didn't meet SME standards, it still sold decently, but I think they expected another runway hit like Gee)

I do like the picture. Taeyeon looks pissed to be there though. No suprise. Sica, Hyo, Yuri are working it. Sunny is trying to, but she is trying a bit too hard.

A dance number, can't wait. I'd die if we got something like On the Floor.

Ugh this album is gonna be really good, I guess no Korean comeback till late next year with their concerts.

The promotional picture for “FLOWER POWER”, shown above, has the girls trying to escape searchlights.

They don't look like they're trying to escape anything at all, but lol

I like the pic, Hyo looks really fierce!

All those details about the new single are trying to give me great expectations about it but I'll try to hold back and not expect much. I've loved most of their (original) Japanese songs so far, but still. And I'm really curious about that new album as well, I hope it'll be as good as their first Japanese one. :)

The first album was amazing! so i'm really excited for the new album and single, especially since we already know the single tracklist and there won't be any surprises in the form of an unexpected remake!

I love the promo picture for the single, I think Yoona, Seohyun and Yuri look the best!

it's kinda crazy how they just don't care about korea at all. they've had like what... four singles in japan in the last year? and one in korea??

Date: 2012-10-04 08:53 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ohlookshiny.livejournal.com
they don't need to release a zillion singles a year to stay the no.1 girl group in korea. and sm knows that japan is where the $$$ are.

I'm glad they're releasing in Japan regularly and trying to build their fanbase back up. It's clear that the gap between Mr. Taxi and Paparazzi (and the overall terribleness of remaking Oh) put a considerable dent in their popularity :( I hope Flower Power knocks ppl's socks off and their album is as good as their first album.

Date: 2012-10-04 09:06 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] ohlookshiny.livejournal.com
they should never have remade oh! as a single. they're at the stage in their career in japan where they should be releasing original stuff. i loved all my love is for you (and the pv) though. hopefully flower power will be as awesome as mr taxi :') and so excited for the album bc the last one was pretty much flawless from start to finish.

it's interesting that kara's single sales aren't as high as last year either. speed up/girl's power didn't sell as well as go go summer!, which was their best selling single in 2011. snsd also haven't charted as well with paparazzi as they did with mr taxi. i wonder why that is.
