The website for TIME magazine has recently released its “Top 10 of Everything 2013” lists. “I Got A Boy” came in as number 5 on the “Top 10 Songs“, placing higher than other popular artists, including Lorde and Miley Cyrus. The article describes the girls as “a ridiculously effective hook machine”, a pop phenomenon that rivals the likes of One Direction and Katy Perry.
With Girls’ Generation’s win at the YouTube Music Awards last November, their recognition by a popular U.S. magazine only further shows the impact “I Got A Boy” had this year. So while the girls continue to lead Hallyu to even greater heights, check out the now world-famous “I Got A Boy” video one more time.

I Got A Boy was released on New Years day 2013. I think SM should releasing the previously mentioned English language version on New Years day 2014 followed by an English language album.
Is this what Taeyeon was alluding to in this Instagram?

YEEEAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Wow that’s amazing. I’m really glad that their US recognition is coming without them even having to have a formal debut or English album over there…here..lol
“The article describes the girls as “a ridiculously effective hook machine”, a pop phenomenon that rivals the likes of One Direction and Katy Perry.” <— sigh i had to pick out this line especially. gosh i'm so proud of them for this achievement. the best part is that they are the ONLY Asian act and the ONLY non-English song on the list. i wanna say big THANKS goes out to D'sign music writers/producers who help created this awesome mix-mash of a song. hope they will continue to create more awesome tracks for our lovely ladies and hoping all this exposure from International sources will help broaden the girls status world wide. can't wait to see what SM and SNSD have for their Sones with new Korean material. congrats Soshi!
thanks always SSF :D
This news came out of nowhere and is awesome! Congrats to the SNSD girls!
This is also a great birthday gift for Yuri!
YAAAY they are getting the worlds attention, keep it up :P
dude, that’s awesome! so happy that my favorite girl group is being recognized for their experimental and innovational talents and musicality :)
Woohooot! Great recognition for our 9 angels! Cheers! :))))
