29TH THREAD :D!!!
Hope she becomes active once again in Japan
I miss her amazing ballads and dance hits

Thanks for making the new thread! :)

I'm looking forward to her "comeback" in Japan. I hope the single does well. Has there been any mention anywhere of some promo for it?

i'm very happy to hear that BoA's coming back with a new single! :D i like the title & tracklist, especially since there's gonna be 2 PVs. i totally can't wait for this single! :)

I bet the PVs will just be alternate versions of the Korean PVs. They probably recorded them in both languages when her Korean album was out and held the Japanese versions back for this.

february ooooooooooh

Glad she's making a comeback, her Jpop stuff has always been better to me.
I'm not going to download this release though, i don't really care if the song is in Japanese or Korean. It's usually just the first version i like the most cause i get used to it.
Like with 2NE1's "Go Away", i was so used to the korean version that the re-sung one annoyed me.

I hope she doesn't take too long with a new album, i need another Identity in my life. I know many fans doesn't like it but it's one of my all time favorites :luv2

I hope we can get a new album, probably with WOO WEEKEND and Milestone

Yes, a new studio album would be very much appreciated. I loved IDENTITY so much (I think I'm one of the few who did). :D

Yay, new Japanese single. FINALLY!

I loved IDENTITY too.. been waiting for the japanese comeback!!!

I'm here for the Japanese comeback

Oh darn :/ Well you can see the others on her official twitter, they're pretty ;)

that picture of BoA is beautiful! :heart

BoA will be releasing a new single “Disturbance” which will be exclusively performed in her upcoming solo concert ‘BoA Special Live 2013~ Here I Am’ on January 26th at the Seoul’s Olympics Park Gymnastic Hall.

“Disturbance” is a neo-soul track and was entirely written and composed by BoA herself. It is a pop song with a soft melody that will showcase BoA’s unique and smooth voice.

The new track will be released digitally on January 28th.

^korean release, right? not japanese...

Mmmm, i don't know, but my intuition says it's a korean song because it's a korean concert, lol.

yea is a korean song.

Soulful BoA makes me soul shiver. Her voice is so lovely in that kind of songs♥

She does no wrong in her Korean discography.

Idk, the video looks like Only One ~take two~ and the song it's not that different neither.
It's decent, but not what i was hoping for. Maybe it'll grow more on me later.

That guy is so pretty that he almost looks like a girl :O

That song made my soul shiver so it's a awesome song♥

That guy is Taemin.

With a whole world of male idols she could choose, she chooses Taemin, from that girl.. I mean boyband... Really dissapointing. Like, look at him some months ago:

BoA darling, if you're going to choose one of your label mates to play the straight boyfriend, at least you could choose DongHae again, or dunno even Siwon ~~(or Amber)~~....

^LOL !
I don't know what to say, i need to hear the song again

Only One （Japanese ver.） MV teaser

^thanks, at least isn't the same video with japanese vocals

Sounds good in Japanese too!

Oh that's awesome!!!!
Can't wait for the full thing

BoA is one of those rare K-Pop artists' who's Japanese versions of her Korean songs are always good♥

ONLY ONE itself sounded like a Japanese song more than a Korean song imo.

"Only One" sounds very nice! and the PV looks nice, too! BoA's dancing is great and she's looking beautiful, too. :heart can't wait for the full PV!

MAKING OF DISTURBANCE MV

"Only One" is a really good song! and i enjoyed watching the PV, as well. BoA looked beautiful & the dancing she did with her dancers was just awesome. :)

thanks :)

Thanks for the link! I love ONLY ONE, although for some reason I'm liking the Japanese version more... is it because it's easier to sing along with the Japanese lyrics? xD

Now I'm contemplating on buying the single. :D

Same here, lol, that's the reason i prefer japanese versions over korean versions

She dances so well in the PV! And I like the Japanese version - hopefully Japan does too.

official short version from avex

This single release is underwhelming. Am I the only one who wants another LOSE YOUR MIND?

BoA - The Shadow (Japanese Ver.) PV Preview

It must be my ears.. She sounds kinda weird in Japanese now.. Her pronunciation..

The Shadow is made to be a kpop song..not a jpop song...its so flat sounding somehow in Japanese.

From Jpopasia.com:

"BoA's New Track "Tail Of Hope" To Be Opening For Fuji TV's Daytime Drama

After releasing the Japanese version of her self-composed song "Only One", the famous singer BoA is set to release another track titled "Tail of Hope". It has been decided that the track will be the opening theme for Fuji TV's new daytime drama "Hakui no Namida" which will air April 1st, 1:30pm, Monday to Friday.

The song is said to be fast paced and echoes the message of "Hope". While the single itself won't be released until the beginning of summer, you can still check it out in the drama!"

AGGHHH!! can't wait
i love the song

the covers are beautiful! my favorite is the CD only. :heart

and "Baby you.." is a nice b-side title! can't wait to hear the song. :)

Gorgeous covers! Thanks for sharing :)

I am thoroughly shocked that everyone likes these covers. The first one especially with the sail boat and the font choice/placement. There is so much going on and then to have that font choice it's very chaotic looking. Not like I give a damn about her covers anyway. Looking forward to the song.

I like the cd only too! And also the limited A version :-)

Forgot to mention, first press of both editions come with a bonus cd with the English version of Tail of Hope.

Very youthful! I like 'em! :)

^ I think the first press thing is a form to send back to get if you buy both versions.

I really like the limited A version, hopefully I'll be able to get it someday..

No Disturbance (Japanese Version), oh well, at least we'll get a new song!
And i love the cd only cover

Ah yes you're right! Read it really quickly :-p

It seems everyone who sends in the form can receive the CD?

Cute covers! I can't wait to hear the full songs~!
