What the **** are you talking about?
Taeyeon's was a Station precursor song, and Yoona's was literally a Station thing - which releases songs every week. These songs have MVs and are a good few weeks in the making, how the hell did they "rush release" it when they no doubt have a clear ordering of the songs they're releasing?
Also the majority of this Jessica 'news' is hearsay, e.g. unofficial information meaning she might have been "aiming" for February but not finished in time, so she was optimistic about March or something.
Like christ, give it a rest.
SM don't give a **** about Jessica, they know she won't have an inkling of success in comparison to anything they release.
Why are you mad and cursing over this though
Even OPshic agrees with me that there is a coincidence that all these SNSD solos keep coinciding with Jessica's rumored release dates.
Yeah, Jessica delaying because of SNSD solo seems like a bit of a reach. Even if it were the case, she herself should know without SM's support her album isn't going to be that big, she might aswell just release and get the music out which is what her fans would want.
You And I sold 4.483M+ in Korean which is really impressive, tho.
Where did you get this? Several music sales reporters stated that T-ara's Roly-Poly was the first song to cross 4 million sales, and the previous best-selling one was IU's Good Day with a little over 3.5 million
Well, to be honest I never checked After School, Brown Eyed Girls or KARA. But I did check Miss A, T-ARA, Apink, AOA, 2ne1 among others because of this thread. 2ne1 are amazing, also I am obsessed with some of the AOA singles, particularly heart attack. I definitely don't like T-ara's music, maybe I need to listen to it again and I do like some of the Miss A songs (one or two tho). Still I don't find any of them better than SNSD at any aspect.
Maybe it's my taste tho. But I think y'all too harsh on SNSD just because they're the nation's girl group.
I actually like SNSD, contrary to popular belief. I just don't agree with any form of lauding their performance skills, so I make fun of it.
Anyways, yeah AOA and 2NE1 are great for music, really easy to get into. KARA were super consistent since they worked with Sweetune during their golden era (basically go listen to all the singles between Mister and Damaged Lady). T-ARA actually took a long time to grow on me, it took about a year for me to finally hear Roly Poly in a pleasurable light, I thought it was trash before that.
Honestly though, go investigate After School at least. They were outstanding, regardless of what the haters in this thread say, and their Japanese albums were really amazing. But yeah, Diva, Because of You, Bang!, Shampoo, Flashback, and First Love are all worth hearing. Diva had great performances, the choreography was so energetic (excuse the styling, it was 2009 ). Because of You had a mildly homosexual video between Uee and Jooyeon (the album version has less autotune screeches in the verses, I promise) and is a fantastic song, super catchy. Bang! was... something else - I don't know how to describe it, but it was great and the instrumental feels historic. And then there's Flashback which... slaughters.
I didn't mean to make this an essay but I think you would really like After School - they're a performance group and they did some amazing things. They're at 3.2k plays on my last.fm, which is only 200 plays behind SNSD. Taking into account SNSD's 10(?) singles - most of which are classics - and the fact that I only "use" 24 After School songs, they really are outstanding and have huge replay factor.
Yoona's SM Station release was announced March 9 alongside a camcorder filmed MV a.k.a rushed as hell.
And you didn't even approach the fact that Yuri and Tiffany's solos have now been pushed back to April.
I rest my case.
Sis please stop thinking that when a solo is "rumoured" for a certain month that it's set in stone. It's not, it's a rumour/HAS NOT BEEN ANNOUNCED for a reason. They don't have a date yet, for various reasons.
And literally stop, Yoona got a camcorder MV because it's barely even a digital single, it was a CHEAP release because SM are releasing songs every week, there's no way they're going to go film ANY sort of high budget video for a song every week.
I just, the conspiracies are endless with you. SM is an inconsistent mess, that's not news. There's a reason they don't announce dates until a week or two before the comeback. Please seek help, you're gonna get an aneurysm or have a stroke if Tiffany or Yuri releases the same week Jessica (eventually) does.

asdf, how is that an accidental leak?
It's literally dated February 16th and the album was a part of that promotional deal.
There's no way to announce that without mentioning the album.
You can't do that on accident.
Yoona's MV looked like that because it was a cheap station release with a retro vibe.
Some of the Station releases i.e. Jonghyun's recent one, don't even have music videos, so the fact that she even had a music video disproves your point.
Yuri & Tiffany's solos were never confirmed for March by SM. That was just media outlets.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realise that SM wouldn't actually release a Taeyeon, Yuri and Tiffany solo all in March, as the article suggested.
