Especially "why", I keep having the disillusion that I'm listening to boa. 0_0 Even in the chinese version of "timeless", jang ri in sounds like boa trying hard to sing in chinese, though she is a chinese. Its quite... interesting?
BUT, I think, jang ri in's voice is 9853475times more powerful than boa's. Her vocal range is so much more wider. Boa doesnt even sounds this good when she's 16.

What do you mean, there wasn't a performance today. o_o
They were supposed to be on Music Core, but they cancelled. Probably because Junsu had to participate in the concert in Thailand. They will be performing on Inkigayo tomorrow.

I dunno, I kinda don't hear it, but I kinda do. When I first heard "Timeless," I was like "Er... Chinese BoA? But their voices are nothing alike." I suppose they sound "the same," more specifically when they're singing in their upper-middle range, but their technique and tone are completely different. BoA's voice also seems to be a bit lower and a bit softer, which is more typical of the pop sound that was out there when she debuted and is a reflection of her training in pop/dance music, whereas Zhang Li Yin has a crisper, more resonate sound to her which is a reflection of the more soulful pop/R&B music that SM has geared her for.
I actually think Zhang Li Yin totally sounds like Dana during "Y (Why..)."

oh definitely. i think i mentioned this before in this thread earlier. i don't really listen to boa, but i've seen a couple of her performances and have overheard my sister playing her songs, so i recognize her voice. jang ri in definitely sounds like boa! in both 'y' and 'timeless' (chinese version), i totally hear the boa in her voice. and once in awhile, during her live performances, when she's struggling to hit the high notes, i hear traces of boa there too. boa's voice is pretty distinct, so it's pretty easy to pick it out when you hear it. i mean, even though you can still tell the difference between the two's voices, everytime i listen to those two songs of jang ri in's, i always think, 'omg, she sounds like boa.' i'm guessing they had the same vocal coach or something.

It just SM labeled her "Chinese BoA" so eveyone compare her or thinks the sounds like BoA >.<
SM shouldn't call her "Chinese BoA". Make people get confused!
EDIT:
Today she performed in MBC, right??
Can't wait to see that performance!!! Anyone have it???

She definitly doesn't sounds like BoA!

i dont think she's labelled the "Chinese BoA" in the sense that she sounds like her. i get the impression that she's similar to boA in the sense that she's treated as well as boA by sm and that she's also a talented solo female singer thats working towards a panasia career, mainly china and korea for the time being, which is much like boA with korea and japan.
at times i am reminded of boA when hearing her, but i do think she has distinctive qualities to her voice that sets her apart. like i've mentioned before, theres this strength to it that i'm really fond of.

i've been wondering what the song would sound like it if was Kelly Clarkson singing with Xiah...
THE SONG WOULD BE PERFECT! OMG, now that you mention it, damn, they are the perfect duo - kelly clarkson&xiah. I wish i could see them sing Timeless together.....
I don't know if this was already mentioned and/or posted in this thread..
but i just found out that the song "Timeless" was originally sang by Justin & Kelly.
here's a videoclip of them singing "Timeless" in NYC.
Justin&Kelly - Timeless
here's the English lyrics.......
Baby come close let me tell you this
In a whisper my heart says you know it too
Baby we both share a secret wish
And your feeling my love reaching out to you
Timeless
Don't let it end no
Now that your right here in my arms where you should stay
Hold tight baby
Timeless
Don't let it fade out of sight
Just let the moment sweep us both away
Lifting us to where we both agree
This is timeless... love
I see it all baby in your eyes
When you look at me you know I feel it too (yes I do)
So let's set away and meet forever baby
Where the crystal ocean melts into the sky (Ohh Ohh Ohh Yeah)
We should let the moment pass (moment pass)
Making me shiver let's make it last
Why should we lose it
Don't ever let me go (Ohh Ohh Ohh Yeah Ohh)
Baby it's timeless
Oh Baby it's timeless (E-yeah yeah yeah yeah)
Timeless
Don't let it fade out of sight
Just let the moment sweep us both away (just let the moment)
Lifting us to where we both agree
This is timeless
This is timeless
Love

lol.. wow.. i didnt know that jang ri in remind u wit boa that much
to me they sound completely different..
well if i have to describe it then boa voice is a wavy line while jang ri in is a slanted straight line..
lol.. sry if that doesnt make sense but im not good with words, im more of a picture person.. ^^
beside i think u guys just getting the allusion that she sounded like boa becuz she was market with boa's name
to me "chinese boa" is just a metaphor sm use to describe how much talents n potential she had..
they cant just say.. "she's really good".. then nobody would care if they say "she's as good as boa".. it's a different thing..
beside i dont think sm need to go as low as sponsor 2 artists that gonna be alike cuz in the end .. if the 2 going off each other, it's the company loss.
