I have the album...and I think too many of the songs sound like each other...with only hypnotic, eat you up, IDIFL, and Girls on Top being standouts. She needed a ballad of some sort and a less synthesized voice. I think she had ample marketing though, the radio tour, the MTV appearance, the Maple Story tie in, and that live appearance in Pasadena

Also, for the record, I haven't heard and of BoA's songs anywhere since its release, but I've surprisingly been hearing Utada's "Come Back to Me" MULTIPLE times in various places. I heard it on the radio in Milwaukee and Minneapolis, and I also heard it in a store at Mall of America. I'm wondering why she's being played so much and not BoA...? |
Atleast you've heard Utada...I have yet to hear either...she's probably getting more plays cause Island is a bigger company.
