Okay, fine >>Jessica said<< “main vocals” but same difference!
I haven’t watched it yet since I’m still trying to catch up on listening to my new tunes… but here’s the list real quick in case you guys didn’t know.
And for those of you who care, Oral Vocal Positions of SNSD:
TaeYeon – Main
Jessica – Leader
Tiffany – Vocal 1
Seobaby – Vocal 2
Sunny – Vocal 3
Sooyoung – Vocal 4
Yuri – Vocal 5
Yoona – Vocal 6
Hyoyeon – Vocal 7
Now, you might be confused… Okay, so the mains usually take the climax of the song, they have the most solos, and their voices are the fullets. They usually don’t need to sing their parts with anyone else unless theirs a harmony climax. Leads however, usually are the ones that get the lines that change the pace of the songs. They get the most lines (not necessarily the most solos) and if the main ever gets a harmony, it the lead is the first (sometimes the only) to chime in. In harmonies, they never usually have the main stick out (unless it’s the climax and they’re saying their own lines while everyone else is singing the same line in harmony) as much as the lead. The lead voice is usually in C while the main is more versatile and flexable, probably because they have a bigger range and stronger lungs.
Examples: Justin was the lead and JC was the main (‘Nsync). Brian was the lead and A.J. was the main (Backstreet Boys). Jaejoong is the lead and Junsu is the main (DBSK). YeEun is the lead and SunYe is the main (Wonder Girls). Lina is the lead and Dana is the main (CSJH). Geri was the lead before she left, then it became Mel B and Mel C was the main (Spice Girls). Kelly was the lead and Beyonce was the main (Destiny’s Child). Youngbae is the lead and Daesung is the main (Big Bang). Kyuhyun is the lead and Yesung is the main (Super Junior).
Tiffany and Seobaby are interchangable… Seobaby used to get more solo lines, but it seems Tiffany hass more solo lines in their newer songs. However, Seobabay does more harmonies or ‘solo’ harmonies (duets, whatever). I think they use Seobaby as the filler voice… Hence why you always hear her with either Tiffany, Jessica, or one of the lower vocalists.
So you see why Jessi is the lead of KPSD? Everything works out!

hahaha i totally noticed that whole “was” “is” thing you did with DBSK ^^
somebody studied hard in music theory
LOL oh snap! I didn’t even mean that…
I wish I took music theory. I’m just basing these things off on what/the pattern I see hahaha
-sLaVe
even funnier! it was all subconscious ^^
hahah no fun, you fixed it!
HEY, do you know how vicious those Casseoninjas… err Casseopias are?!
They seem to hate all types of girls except each other. So I’m not about to get ninja stars thrown at me… No thanks.
Plus, I like DBSK lol I don’t want them to break up!
And go study, stop hanging out here :p go on AIM if you’re gonna be distracted like this.

Someone has the link to the TMYW perf when Sica’s flying shoe happened? Thanks!
so don jess might lead KPSD… but then again, she herself admitted to not singing her parts.
so she’s just a pseudo-don?!?!?! :O
btw, i’m just now watching the full ep 7 and OMG that old guy is hitting on our don jess SO MUCH! HE WANTS TO TASTE HER LIPS!??!?!
i hope lady tiff kept her ears closed >_<
Hmm. They do use Seobaby as a filler…
Sunny and Fany have great voices, but Seobaby has a much more stable voice than either of them so…
Sunny and Fany’s voice have more “feel” in them I guess.
Yeah, Fany’s voice is very uncontrolled. But it has EMOTION. Something Seobaby lacks which is why I think they use her as a filler. Seriously, if Seobaby would just put some more feeling into her singing, her voice could be heaps better.
Sunny… she has good control, but her lungs aren’t too strong.

totally agree. wow i cant believe i totallymissed this post. i’ve never seen it before till today (as i’m trying to find the news paper tae’s stepdownpost so i can link to my post grrr)
i think your right i like seobaby voice the most but sometimes she lacks of feeling to it. but still seobaby is the best
lol. aw. sica’s so sly. she can get away with not singing in the chorus. but it doesn’t matter since she’s the don.

why is yuri so low down on the list?? she has a great voice. in my opinion, she’s better than sooyoung, even though i like sooyoung.
Sooyoung as a vocal 4?
Sooyoung is my favorite, but honestly she does NOT get as many lines as anyone else, some songs, she doesn’t even sing.
Yuri and Yoona definitely get more lines than her…
daesung is main? interesting, never thought of it that way
I think sooyoung’s vocals is good enough to be for no. 4 but then the amount of lines doesnt seem to allow her to show it ._.
looking at the line allocation in their songs she seems to be getting the least lines.
in some songs she doesn’t even get her own solo lines ):

i completely had the same lineup as jessica mentioned.
this is purely opinion and based on my observations.
tiffany has the most powerful voice in snsd. though it may seem that it is some uncontrolled. but you can definitely see the husky/sexy emotional voice she can do.
seohyun and tiffany are kinda interchangable as their vocals complement each other. seohyun’s voice is timid, soft and controlled, good for starting songs.
sunny has the most flexible voice in the group. she can sound sexy, cute, even as much as sound like the other members in the group(maybe except taeyeon and jessica). she has great vocal imitation.
when taeyeon hits the highest notes in the song, the song suddenly becomes eargasmic at that moment. yes, she’s one of the best (if not the best) vocals in the korean girl group industry. ’nuff said.
jessica is the ero voice of the group, giving off the sexy sound. she’s my favorite singer among the nine members. her voice is very unique. though i prefer tiffany’s english singing over hers.
sooyoung has the best vocal skills among the 4 dancers. yes, she had the role of a back-up vocals(w/ sunny) before she became one of the images of the group and went on to become the most powerful dancer. the most balanced member in the group along with seohyun.
yoona sounds like a combined voices of sunny and sooyoung. she sounds sweet and adorable but her voice does not stand out as much as the other dancers. yoona takes most of the speaking parts, like in ooh lala, star and forever.
hyoyeon’s voice is kinda variable. there are some songs which perfectly fit her voice and accent while some songs just don’t click. her voice can be used in a combo with taeyeon and work wonders. fastpaced songs suit her best.
yuri’s voice is kinda like tiffany’s with less power and more control. kinda like the middle of tiffany and seohyun. second to jessica when it comes to the sexy voice.
