Welcome. You are invited to walk in her dreams in the 25th thread
http://a.imageshack.us/img508/3938/boabanner25.gif BoA (Stands for Beat of Angel; Real name: Boa Kwon) is a Korean is a singer who is famous throughout Asia. Since her debut, she has become one of the top singers in both South Korea and in Japan. She is the only non Japanese Asian artist to have two albums selling over a million copies in Japan. She is also one of two artists in Japan who have six consecutive #1 studio albums (though her streak recently ended with IDENTITY). BoA is noted as being an amazing singer as well as a dancer. In addition to being able to speak fluent Korean and Japanese, BoA is also learning English and Mandarin Chinese. In 2008, she attempted to debut in the USA with Eat You Up. In 2009, she released BoA, her debut English album language. It was met with little success in the US but the album topped charts in Korea and Japan. In August 2010, after being away from Korea for five years, BoA released her Korean comeback album, Hurricane Venus. http://a.imageshack.us/img709/2218/boadisc.gif Spoiler:

I hope we'll get the Hurricane Venus MV soon! And I honestly can't wait for her performances omg. Her comeback stage will most likely be mind blowing.
|
I'm definitely in love with the whole album, but the stand out tracks to me are definitely: GAME, HURRICANE VENUS, Dangerous, Implode, Don't Know What To Say, and Romance!
|
Can anyone refresh my memory on which tracks BoA wrote/composed on HURRICANE VENUS?
|
^I think she wrote Ordinary Day and Let Me
|
yay for new thread!
hurricane venus is so addictive! |
OMFG @ Implode. I didn't think she could pull off another good acoustic ballad, I guess I was wrong.
|
This Album is soooooo good. I think it's her best yet ...
Love ... Implode, M.E.P, HURRICANE VENUS, Stand By, Romance ... so so so good! awesome ... |
i'm still listening to the album, but dangerous is so amazing!!! :heart
ah! new twit pic with taly's bf XD http://img404.imageshack.us/img404/5996/kqlx.jpg :laugh |
Any data of rankings for Hurricane Venus?

Ok I calmed down. |
Hurricane Venus is an amazing album. I <3 It.
|
I'm loving all the upbeat tracks on BoA's new album. It always takes me a while to get into ballads so i've been skipping them for now, but i'm sure i'll get time to listen to the album properly soon.
BoA should have done another Korean album sooner. I think the music is much better than her recent Japanese work. |

^ You can download the album in the .zip file
http://www.multiupload.com/GK5FA987GX if it still doesn't help, I'll upload it for you. Btw, Polyrhythm, I love what you did in that gif in the first post :laugh ;) EDIT: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...s/IMG_0069.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...s/IMG_0070.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v3...s/IMG_0072.jpg Credits: kokoromang@uriboa + DC보아갤 oh my. :luv2 And the B sign looks exactly the same as her tattoo! |
What's Hanteo? Korea's Oricon/Billboard charts?
|
^ I'm not into the charts thing :shrug
another photo: http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/2080/92410194.jpg CD looks freakin' amazin'! |
@flying proud: that link worked beautifully. Thanks. Oh, and I love all these pictures of the CD. Also, i didnt know BoA had a tattoo.
|
I really like the album!
The only track I didn't like much is Stand By. My favorites are HURRICANE VENUS, Adrenaline, GAME, Dangerous, Let Me and Implode! |

package is stunning:heart |

Now you know ;) She has also a tattoo on her left hand: http://a.imageshack.us/img580/9181/a00234074c.jpg |
^wow.. wonder how i missed the one on her hand.:P They're both real nice. Thanks.
|
^ I think it's a new tattoo. It was spotted for the first time in this year showcase in Shanghai, if I'm not wrong.
|
^Well i really like both of them. Very classy. Same with Ayu's tattoo as well.
|
^ yes, Kuu has a nice tattoo too! Our girls has a good taste.
Quote:
|
^I saw a side bit of Kuu's tattoo, but i didn't get a good look at it. Still, I'm sure its quite nice.
And thats so cool about the skater. I'm not familiar with her though. Also, i think i heard somewhere that Ji-Sung Park who plays for Manchester United is a BoA fan as well. Anyone know if this is true? |
wow, she was fast too:laugh XD well, i have on repeat the album too XD we all missed her korean music so much ToT
|
Official site update!
http://a.yfrog.com/img836/7342/xlz.jpg http://a.yfrog.com/img689/8325/1eot.jpg BoA posted these photos on Twitter. |
^Nice. what is the address for BoA's Korean official site?
|
^ http://boa.smtown.com but what I said, updating is in work.
|
The song "Romance" reminds me of something i'd listen to at Christmas....
|
^ Haha I see the same comments about it everywhere :laugh It's one of my favorites off this album so I'm feeling weird for that :laugh
By the way, what's your opinion about the album? :) |
^I really love it. just it could use a few less ballads.
Also, bit off-topic, well sorta. Just i noticed in Western artists that ballad-type songs are shorter than fast paced ones, which it seems the opposite for with the Asian artists. |
BoA's Thanks To (included in the album)

Undisclosed Cut http://img.blog.yahoo.co.kr/ybi/1/f4...1281018700.jpg Thanks to the Uri BoA, again! |
Awwww! I have much more admiration and respect for BoA now than ever before. She's truly an inspiration and very humble.
I really enjoyed her album. My favorite tracks were: -GAME (my favorite) -Stand By -Let Me -Romance (this song is outstanding) |
I'm completely in love with this album! I think they did an amazing job all-around (music, photo shoot, ect.).
|
I can't stop listening to it. @.@

It's a really good album. Better than I expected and I was expecting alot.
Implode is my favorite and is probably one of her best songs ever. Only song I don't like is M.E.P Quote:
|
SHINee's LUCIFER MV was uploaded by SME at the midnight/hour later (9/10AM in Korea)? So we should get HV this time too...
|
I really LOVE the album, I hope I can get my hands on the physical copy soon, I love Korean packaging. <3 My fav tracks are GAME, HURRICANE VENUS, Dangerous, Let me, Implode and Romance. I've always found her previous Korean albums to have a lot of filler tracks, I love how this album has a lot of strong tracks.
It's kinda sad that BoA is much more interesting in Korea than Japan (imo anyway) I don't see why she can't make this kind of music and image in Japan. |
Am I the only one that doesn't get a Christmas/winter feel from Romance? I get a really old music kind of feeling. It reminds me so much of Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra and I could picture like a couple slow dancing with a bunch of Italian lights around~ haha
I really love it. *o* |
^ I have the same... It's just jazzy for me, not wintery at all. Beautiful piece of music which made me cry. :heart
|
@armophose: I've honestly never heard any of Frank Sinatra's music even though i do know both his name and Dean Martin's. I'm more familiar with stuff like The Beatles, Beach Boys, Elvis, The Temptations etc. I love a lot of stuff from the 60s, 70s and 90s.
|
Oh BoA is so beautiful in those pictures.
|
I can't actually get over how much I love Hurricane Venus.
|
Quote:
|
^because SM cares about BoA, not like avex :laugh
|
Both j-pop and k-pop have advantages and disadvantages :laugh (I said the same thing earlier :laugh)
|
This album was probably spawned by God himself
|
BoA looks gorgeous in the new pics :d
I'm liking her new tattoo on her wrist |
Quote:
|
Quote:
Ohh.. so BoA composed Let Me and Ordinary Day? I'd say she's improving a bit. Let me is great, Ordinary Day is probably one of the weakest on the album though (still not bad though) |
On track 5..
Still waiting to be impressed x_x; I honest to god think everyone is over hyping this album.. just because it's better than the last two albums in different languages, and they sucked doesn't make this one a piece of art.. (i honestly think that BoA was a better album >w>) EDIT;// Okay.. I love Implode D: |
Quote:
|
TBH, I love The Face and her English one BOA. IDENTITY wasn't bad but it was far from great.
|
For me:
1. Girls On Top 2. HURRICANE VENUS ... and the rest. But the more I'm listening to that album the more I'm wondering if it's even better than GOT though... |
The album was kind of a disappointment for me. Don't care much for the ballads and all of the dance tracks are okay, but the superfluous auto-tune I didn't like.
Still, I liked it better than Identity. |
Quote:
and yeaah I'm waiting for Hurricane Venus MV so badly omg btw lulz at the gif on the first post :laugh great job there! |
13 minutes left... I THINK. If the "script" is going in the same way as LUCIFER...
|
I liked the new album a lot! Did not skipped any tracks :heart (unlike Identity).
My favorites are Implode, Hurricane Venus, Game, Stand By, & Adrenaline. ^^ |
I love the photoshoot concept for this album so much! It's really amazing.
There was a thread of BoA's complete discography here somewhere, but it's not coming up when i search it. Anyone have the link? x_x |
^ here's the discography thread :) :
http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2120609 |
^Thank you!! :D
|
I've never bought a BoA album before, but I really want this :D One question though, do Korea do first press versions like Japan? Were there any first press bonuses with this, or bonuses from certain stores, such as a poster?
|
Ok, because it's taking forever to release MV...
To those who want to watch BoA's Music Bank stage live by the stream: Show begins at 17:50 KST. BoA it's going to be one of the last/the last performing artist, so you don't have to stream on time. I usually use that site, I think it's good. |
^ really thanks for the link :3
|
^ No problem :)
Man, I go to sleep, I don't care for that MV anymore. |
Is it me or M.E.P (My Electronic Piano) sounds like B.o.B's Nothin' On You?
|
^ I see other people mentioning that and even accusing of plagiarism :rolleyes. Personally I only hear a couple similarities but not enough for it to be plagiarized.

But anyway. I freaking love that song! |
Who's B.o.B?......
|
^ A rapper, he's really popular right now.
|
I need this poster
http://a.imageshack.us/img412/5480/sdc11998y.jpg I dont care if it is fake or w/e |
Remember how I said that there's different charts in South Korea and how some count towards Music Bank and others don't?
Well speaking of music bank...oh flying proud mentioned it. :) Well anyway here are times for that and some other shows she going to be on.

Other times: EST 4:50 am PST 1:50 am Use this if you need to convert times: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html The streaming should also work with the Lunascpae browser set to Trident. |
And is Music Bank two hours long - or three? I know at my time Music Station starts THREE hours after Music Bank starts...
|
Wikipedia says it's an hour and 20 minutes.
|
Quote:
By the way, with that, this does NOT conflict with Music Station, which would be less than an hour to "transfer"... Or two hours... |
I'm going to sleep....and when I wake up BoA had better have won the show thingamajigger
|
Still no MV... LMAO it seems it'll be released after Music Bank broadcast.

I’ll have fun eating ^^ Yeonhee came to support her and bought her a cake. http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/c...shina/yznr.jpg Minho, you unni*****! XD http://a.yfrog.com/img687/7065/seffm.jpg On the way to Music Bank Quote:
|
^ No problem hehe
lol Fail on my part I didn't notice the 50 in the time. >_< Fixed my previous post. Now I have to wait 30 minutes. Ooo pictures! Cool gifts and I want cake! I wonder what it tasted like. |
can't wait to see Dangerous + HV :heart
waiting for MBank to staaart!! |
lol I'm watching it now, they showed BoA for a little bit and she's in an atrocious outfit lol
|
^ there was a Waiting Room already showed? oh my bad, I didn't see this.
|
i think she'll perform the last?
|
She's going to be the last artist, but it won't be live, her performance was already recorded. Prerecording happens when artists have the special stage, with extra decorations etc.
Hope the fanchants from Jumping BoA were strong. |
Hehe woke up in the middle of the morning to watch BoA on Music Bank. I should not be doing this....lol
|
Rino Nakasone has just tweeted this
