I was listening to it on and off since I posted that last comment and it's definitely growing on me. I don't think the live performance is doing it any favours, I suspect I'll like it more in decent quality. I really like the verses, although the chorus is a little weaker. Still, I'm enjoying it more than I was earlier.
What an absolute MESS from both parties. Hopefully the MVs and live perfs make up for the delays.
That new bestie song looks like is not made for live performances. Waiting for the MV.
Cute rookies alert: Melody Day - Another Parting
Cute rookies alert: 1PS - Because I'm your girl (teaser)
WTF is this alert: Toheart ( WooHyun & Key ) Prologue II
It's the standout track for sure. Should have the MV/promotion treatment.

They're both waiting for each others, it might never come at this point. lol
I think I saw something about Come Back Home being the first single and then Gotta Be You is after that. Don't think there was a third.
yeah, prefer when he creates jazzy/RnB music for the artists. Think he's the best in that area.
Come Back Home (both versions), Gotta Be You and Happy are all getting MVs apparently.
Yay!
Edit: Forgot this
Edit 2: Girl's day at MBC picninc live parts 1 2 and 3
Edit 3: They perfromed

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat
At the risk of sounding hyperbolic, 'Love Options' was lightning in a bottle (for a song of that type). Fresh, fun, great choreo and a good song to back it up. It's better than anything on Mr.Mr. and can go up against the best tracks on Crush. Not an easy feat for a "rookie" group to follow up.
I could do with slightly less repetition, but 'Thank You Very Much' is straight. Good beat (mostly during the verses), and the song is really only let down by the hook. I'm struck by how much stronger BESTie is compared to EXID version 1.

Much better. Then again, it calls to mind Calvin Harris & Florence Welch's 'Sweet Nothing' which, to me, is a better song.
Agreed.
Give 'Baby I Miss You' and 'Gotta Be You' a few more listens.

Didn't they say that before and then actually just fuck over their old management?
These random Soshi teaser videos are the best thing they've released in the last 14 months.

I hope that's exactly what they are. It's been ages since we last had some proper Soshi variety.
Let's hope this works out better than their last escape attempt.

Seems to be a short version though... tssk tssk
Edit: At least there were some rumors about it, let's see.

I really like the video besides the forced dance sequences and hallway catwalks (Obviously put in to please people like the poster above). I feel like f(x) nail this kind of shit way better than SNSD do, here it just feels like they really should have gone either one way or the other. And it doesn't make up for how lacklustre the song is.
Wtf was that? The editing was so bad & it looked like 4 different mvs mashed into 1. The scenes kept changing so I couldn't even focus on what was happening. This whole comeback is disappointing. At least they looked nice..
Don't know of this is the original MV after they said it was corrupted or lost.
Some close-ups are too closeup as if they were cropped, but probably just the style.
Girls are fine but generally shots seems odd, not sure about what to think, not overwhelmed for sure, but not awful.
At least I was the 160th to see it in YT, lol.

That is the confirmation that SM lose parts of the video for not doing any kind of backup of their work. It´s incredible, i honestly can´t believe it.

was the whole video filmed using instagram filters?

I dunno, I actually kinda like Mr. Mr. The bit at the end with the breakdown is cool as hell. But, at this point SNSD seem to make far better material for their Japanese albums, than their Korean ones. Particularly the last album they put out, there's so many great songs one after the other.
But I'd agree on the Mr. Mr. MV being pretty lackluster, its like 90% panning shots and close ups. Dancing plz.

The black and white parts are the best of the video, those are from the original concept for Mr Mr that did´nt liked to Lee Soo Man. The whole nurse bizarre thing is the thing we got after they remade the original concept.
The thing is, the finished MV was lost, there were no backup for it, thus we got this fanmade MV with a lot of cropping and out of place content.
Dat godess tho.
So you'd prefer a video of them dancing in a literal box?
The "remade" concept is leagues more interesting than that shit. They just didn't do anything with it.
It's a safe and lazy release. But let's be honest, SM and SNSD's management haven't given a damn about their Korean audience since they realised there's way more money to be made in Japan. They only release this stuff once every year or so out of obligation.
"Black and white dance scene" as in the garage? That was shown months ago in a teaser at a concert so it seems to me that was the only thing left over from the data loss - everything else doesn't mix with it from the styling to the way it was shot. (edit: I see josecitoxnyo says that Lee Soo Man didn't like it - guess he had to throw it in there to pad out some seconds instead of reshooting more)
Messy MV, album, and management through and through. For the ball to be dropped this many times, I feel there must be some kind of internal issue going on over at SM.

The remade concept looks like a random concept for f(x), there was even a drama version for the original concept, this is a big mess.
There has to be a dance version, although at this point it´s probable a dance practice video.
No. The scene with them wearing suits and dancing in a white box.
The data loss is BS. This nurse concept was teased as well before any news about that came out. It was a tug-of-war between YG and SM's publicists.
A random concept from f(x) is better than that generic shit.

That is from the original concept too, the garage thing.
That is out of question, we can all agree on that. There´s still hope for another minialbum sometime this year and maybe a repackaged that can make us forget this mess.
More money in Japan or not every SNSD album is top 3 of that year in total sales, physical sales of several hundred thousands are not common and I'm sure a very welcome, significant source of income for SM.

What's the excuse for releasing f(x) stuff once a year then
What´s the excuse for F(X) not having a solo concert or even an official fanclub name. Who knows, it´s SM.
The parking garage and I'm guessing the suits were part of the original concept (remember the rumored "masculine concept" that SM denied?), but Lee Soo Man was all, "No, too manly, needs more pink!" And we got this hospital stuff. Then they lost scenes from THAT, and everything is just mashed together quickly to get it out. What a catastrophe of a comeback.

Can´t wait to see them dance to forget this horrible MV.

And more of this of course.

This sentence is kind of oddly constructed so I'm just assuming you mean they do it for a quick cash in, which is of course true. Doesn't change the fact that it's extraordinarily lazy. IGAB was leagues better than this but their releases, sans title tracks, have always been incredibly mediocre. Now even the title track feels like filler.
I personally don't really enjoy videos that are just dancing in a box these days, but it seems that's what people demand.
