Mr. Mr.: 7/10
This is actually the first title track of SNSD that I really disliked or ever rated this low. The music video teasers seemed like it was going to be very promising, but sadly, wasn't. It wasn't catchy, and overall, it was pretty boring to hear. I'm not saying that it wasn't good, but it pretty boring.
Goodbye: 10/10
SM must have made a mistake. This should have been the title track. This sounded so much better than Mr. Mr, and admittedly, most of the album. Everyone sounded great, even Hyoyeon and Yoona! Thank God, SM actually gave them something in their vocal range.
Europa: 8/10
There was nothing special about this song. It sounded fine, but I think I'll forget about this song in the next few hours.
Wait a Minute: 8.5/10
Just read Europa again. I really have nothing to say except that it was a bit better than that and Back Hug.
Back Hug: 8/10
The chorus pretty much saved this song for me. Otherwise, I would have rated it the same as Mr. Mr.
Soul: 9.5/10
If you haven't already heard "Find Your Soul," the song that SNSD recorded for the Chinese video game, Blade & Soul, then you're missing out. "Soul" is basically just a Korean version of the song. I would have rated it a 10, but some parts didn't flow that well compared to the Chinese version. Tiffany and Hyoyeon still slayed their raps though!
Album Overall: 8.5/10
Wasn't worth the hype imo. I thought they would do better than this especially since they only delayed it in response to 2NE1's album, CRUSH. Unfortunately, I think they have more of a chance of beating SNSD now.
Recommendations: Goodbye and Soul
Least Favorite Song: Mr. Mr.
Thanks for reading! Make sure to check the links to listen to the full album! Please no bashing, and I'll see you later! Bye!
Too bad the song wasn't as good as the teasers.
Blackjacks everywhere must be proclaiming, "2NE1 will 'CRUSH' SNSD!"
