Hey everyone! It's this time of week again! New jpop songs!
This week only 2 songs caught my interest
SNSD - Mr. Taxi
and
Happiness - Friends
Lets start with Mr. Taxi.
This song is OK. They defiantly have had better songs excluding Hoot. I do give them props for having their first Original Japanese song though. I do think the only reason why its a Double A-side is because they failed to give Run Devil Run a PV which is a 10 times better song then Mr. Taxi.
I do want to mention something which bothered me...Why is SNSD using auto tune. No Kpop Group needs it. 4minute <3 and 2NE1 only use it because its their style. The Bad-ass Pop style of Korea. Other then that it was a decent song. It deserved to be in the top 10.

Now for Friends:
My first thought was: "holy crap...another kpop group debuting in japan? -_-" But nope! they are japanese...who have the height and legs of koreans!
But holy crap! They dance so well! I actually like this song too! I feel like if it was more fast paced then I would of liked it more and then being a new group is probably the reason why they got rank 20 in the oricon charts. If they produce more upbeat, pop songs then I would become a fan in a heart beat and they would possibly be a rival for morning musume or berryz koubou.
