Girls’ Generation released their third album “The Boys” today along with a music video for the English version of the title track. “The Boys” has already been gaining a lot of attention in the US.
Radio host and TV personality, Ryan Seacrest, who hosts a nationally syndicated radio show with millions of listeners, On Air With Ryan, featured the girls and their new song on his website as a top story. As Jen Erza writes for their article, “This South Korean girl group by the name of Girls’ Generation released an English version of their latest music video “The Boys” that we absolutely love! It’s a foot-stomping, head-crackin’, and girl-powered track sung by nine girls that everyone needs to hear.”
Also, at the time of this article, the song has soared into the top 100 songs on iTunes at #77, and is currently at #33 on the top Pop Songs on iTunes.
As expected, Girls’ Generation recorded an all-kill on the Korean charts with “The Boys” taking #1 on every real-time chart. As if an all-kill weren’t enough, the rest of “The Boys” album’s songs were highly ranked as well. On Soribada, the first three spots were Girls’ Generation with a total of seven songs in the top ten. Olleh Music had nine out of the top ten as Girls’ Generation songs. Bugs saw all top ten spots go to Girls’ Generation.
It seems all eyes are on Girls’ Generation now, and the girls will be able to showcase their talents in the US this weekend at SMTOWN Live in New York at Madison Square Garden.
You can purchase “The Boys” single on iTunes and Amazon. If you haven’t ordered the album already, you can order at YesAsia(without poster) and with poster. Also, Soshified is organizing a bulk order with Korean fansites, so check that out in this thread.

lololol looking at the all kill and on top of that they occupying most or all of the spots on Korean music charts, I can’t help but laugh my head off. It’s like the time when they did an all kill with their 1st Japanese album, all the songs on the list and Mr. Taxi appearing twice lol. Very cool they make a impression on the Itunes chart and being top story on Ryan Seacrest’s blog. It’s a start and hope they get bigger and can continue doing English song and keep their kpop style too, because that’s why I love in the 1st place. Anyway I can’t wait to read how much copies sold already this week and hope they can sell 500k+ like their Japanese album. Also can’t wait to see their live performance this weekend. Go Soshi go! SONEs figthing! Thanks ssf! :D
I can’t wait to get this album I’ still waiting for the money but as soon as I get my hands on my money it’s the first thing I’m buying. I’m so proud of our girls. 지금은 소녀 시대!!! 대박!!!

I feel like I was beat to the punch but in the best way possible! Since I heard that the girls were going to be releasing an English song, I wanted to get the MV and song on the MV channels and radios in the states! I’ve been trying to locate well followed stations that still take requests so that I can get the girls on that station. Of course I was also going to offer the info to other SONEs and encourage them to request the song as well!
Welcome to the big league girls.. you sooo deserves it.. Happy GG day!
