i think poster is available for first press edition for every version. but don't quote on me though since i'm not too sure


i hope this is allowed, but i wish to have yunho's postcard so if anyone is interested to trade with me for junsu please PM me. thanks

gayness it's version A

[inatlum]

sorry my english not good, but i wanted to say does anyone feel that xiah did not enough part in taxi. i like all the members, but it is sad, he has such a beautiful voice. he only had two parts which he sang so beautufully, and other members werwe awesome too.i wish there was more equality in the parts, but this really bothered me. but i guess we cant get everything we want. thi.

-julie

[gayness]

inatlum - I'm not so sure about this. I was way into the song and didn't recognize the individual voices. <33
Maybe they tried to limit it? Since he has a lot of parts in the other songs compared to some of the others?
Taxi is a great song! * top favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

kinkie_lass: OMGAH! That looks really nice!! What version is that?
I really need a job. T__T.

-julie

It's okay Your English is good.
In every song, a member will tend to sing more or less depending on the style of the song. Junsu always has many parts in alot of different songs and sometimes he doesn't. I personally think they are more fair now about splitting the parts than a couple of years ago. Now it's just whose voice is more suitable for the song.

[Trans] Arena Magazine Review: Xiahtic (TVXQ/DBSK/Tohoshinki/東方神起/동방신기)

TVXQ- Xiah Junsu

(Review by a musician)
Voice Quality: ♪♪♪♪
The sexiest and hoarsest voice in TVXQ. Xiah Junsu's strength is in being able to broaden the range of music TVXQ can do, and that is an undeniable fact.
Performance: ♪♪♪♪
Rather than saying it was an emotionally-charged performance, it is more accurate to say that it was dramatic singing. The song was also presented well, and was able to touch the audience in all areas.
Volume: ♪♪♪
Xiah Junsu has a rather quieter voice. There also is not much difference between his low and high notes. This can be seen clearly in his duet with Zhang Liyin, "Timeless".
Overall: ♪♪♪♪
His song attracts more attention compared to "idols". He does not do so through an extremely powerful voice, but by strengthening TVXQ's performance in songs. Therefore, reviews will be different if he does have a solo album in future.

(Review by M.net PD)
Voice Quality: ♪♪♪♪
A falsetto was used during the higher notes, and his voice seemed to sound weaker. But his other high notes were powerful as Xiah used a voice similar to his normal singing voice. His voice is a penetrating and husky one, thus this gives him an advantage when performing SM songs and makes his voice more charming as well.
Performance: ♪♪♪.5
Although the techniques used in the various ranges of notes are very well practised, the emotional handling of the song was a little too much. Overuse of vibrato became a bad point instead.
Volume: ♪♪♪♪♪
This is more of an achievement from practise instead of a talent. A high volume is critical to achieveing a powerful voice. The ability to maintain this volume when performing a song and dancing at the same time makes the performance a lot stronger. He really did very well in this aspect.
Overall: ♪♪♪♪.5
It'd do him wrong to just call him an "idol". He is really a good singer with a strong foundation. There is no vibration when he sings the high notes, and he does have an obvious advantage over the average singer when it comes to certain singing techniques. The performance would've been perfect if he could control the vibration during the more emotional parts of the song.

(Review by a singer/singing coach)
Voice Quality: ♪♪♪♪
His advantage is in that he had a long period of training, has a husky yet influential voice.
Performance: ♪♪♪♪
He has also received a lot of training in performing. A lot of planning on how to deliver the song was done. However, there was a little too much influence from SM's impact and vibration style. It could be classified as over-expressing. Watching and learning from singers outside of the company and practising from there may be a good thing as well.
Volume: ♪♪♪♪
To a singer, singing and dancing at the same time is extremely difficult. Not only is a long period of training required, breathing control is important as well. And, the volume remains high even during the high notes.
Overall: ♪♪♪♪
There is talent as well as sufficient training, therefore the overall feeling is good. The only bad point is there was an overuse of vibration. However, changing this would be hard due to the influence of TVXQ's music.

Please takeout with full credits.

JJ's clip was funny...XD
Yeha i think he was trying to escape.
Having fun at the airport, i see.

And the review, Junsu got like ana average of 4 notes for everything..
not bad at all. XD
And i've noticed their comments on Su's vibration..
Personally i think i overlook that fact, but maybe if he can control it, then better..^^
Oh well. Love him no matter what..
Thanks for sharing those...

[INFO]XIAH JUNSU IS SIMPLY THE BEST!

"Xiah JunSu Best,TaeYeon and SunYe Comparable, Huh YoungSeng·DaeSung·RyeoWook Acceptable"

The April issue of men's fashion magazine "Arena" judged the talents of the main vocals of idol groups. Group DongBangShinGi's Xiah JunSu received the highest praise, SoNyuhShiDae's TaeYeon and Wonder Girls' SunYe were given similar marks. SS501's Huh YoungSeng and Big Bang's DaeSung, Super Junior's RyeoWook received the lowest marks.

The judging was done by singer Kim YunWoo, pop music critic Cha WooJin, and M.Net's Park ChanWook PD. The three said of Xiah JunSu's voice, "The reason why his vocal does not exceptionally stand out is because of DongBangShinGi's songs," and "He is a commendable vocalist who we feel sorry to label as an idol singer." Kim YunWoo said, "He gives a nice feel of having talent as well as having received much training."

Although not as skilled in comparison with Xiah JunSu, Shinee's JongHyun received positive feedback. They stated, "He is a singer whose next step we are anticipating more than his current stand," and "JongHyun's vocal is one of the reasons why Shinee succeeded."

TaeYeon and SunYe, who are receiving much interest and attention as members of rival groups Soh Nyuh Shi Dae and Wonder Girls, received positive criticism. They said of TaeYeon, "She knows how to cover up her weaknesses well," and "She has a plain tone but has an ability to make it noticeable. You can say she is fox-like vocal." Of SunYe they said, "She has the most mature voice out of the Wonder Girls and she utilizes good breathing technique and intuitively matches the her singing to each song."

Xiah JunSu's, JongHyun's, and TaeYeon's high marks are largely due to SM Entertainment's strict vocal training. With H.O.T., SM created symbolic first-generation idol groups with the focus on their outward appearances, but strove hard to find idol singers with skills.

The strong opinion on BoA and Xiah JunSu is that they, at the very least, have surpassed the level of idol singers who rely on the power catchy songs. Thanks to composing and lyric-writing, idols brushing past fundamental creational training to turn into soloists is one of SM's methods.

On the other hand, they said of SS501's Huh YoungSeng, "It appears that he has talent, but he is incomplete in effort. The degree to which he is lacking is severe." In comparison with Xiah JunSu, who is a member of what could be seen as rival group DongBangShinGi, he is of average level. They also said of Super Junior's RyeoWook, "He only sings the high parts within Super Junior, he is unable to show personal color," and of Big Bang's DaeSung, "He tends to overconfidently sing high-pitched parts but he needs to grow the power to control such sounds," and gave low marks.
