First off, I was super excited for this. Fans of the Wonder Girls have to be devoted because we BARELY SEE THEM (only fan pictures and twitter pictures here and there) PLUS, we've been listening to "Nobody" for the past 3 YEARS. Yeah, no wonder fans have become, in the words of Sunmi, "migrating birds". People can only take so much...NON-updating. Also, not to mention we've been promised a U.S. album for what? 2 years now? Sometimes I wonder why I keep up...
ANYWAYS. Here is the video of their performance.
If you look at the comments on Allkpop, Wonderfuls are blowin' that shit up with how epic this cover was (even suju fans because...for some reason they like WG too :\). But...sorry to burst their bubble. I was only SLIGHTLY impressed.
First off, why does it seem like their accent NEVER gets better??? I mean, Lim doesn't really have an accent but she's been speaking English for a LONG time. Sunye's singing is great but it sucks that I can't get over "all over the WORD". Yubin...scared me for a second. I know her accent is probably the worst in the group so I didn't know how her rapping would go. Not TOO bad. Yeeun...she's a really good singer and the accent was minimal. Sohee...no accent really.
To tell you the truth, I was most afraid for Sohee's part. As a Wonder Girls fan...I KNOW HER SINGING SUCKS. I KNOW. But I was slightly surprised that it wasn't TOTALLY noticeable in the cover. So, good job?
Overall, I'll give it a rating of:
