Pieces_of_SEVEN 12th April 2012 03:32 AM

^^Are those recent or old?

freedreamer 13th April 2012 03:09 AM

I suspect the footage was recently released? But the concert was done last year I believe...
they are both different concerts btw..

Earth_maiden 13th April 2012 03:13 PM

I just ordered BoA's IDENTITY 2010 Tour DVD. I haven't followed her much since that album flopped, so I'm excited to get reacquainted with her. :heart

Maemi 23rd April 2012 09:16 PM

Bumping this thread! What is your fav Japanese album by her?

Minttulatte 24th April 2012 12:25 AM

^VALENTI will always be my favorite album, closely followed by IDENTITY (Never understood the hate for this album tbh) and LOVE & HONESTY. :)

Lady~Deviance 24th April 2012 03:14 AM

Fave album? IDENTITY.

The only BoA album that I can play from beginning to end without skipping many tracks.

Mirai Noah 24th April 2012 06:16 PM

Probably VALENTI. :)

orly? :thud can't believe it lol

ahtka-chan 24th April 2012 08:10 PM

My favorite album is definetely THE FACE followed by VALENTI.

In THE FACE BoA really applied the concept of the album in her songs, so we could see many faces of her through different songs. I love her voice in Beautiful Flowers and LOSE YOUR MIND got to be one of her best songs ever in her three discographies (despite the bad english)

VALENTI is a classic. period.

ayu_ready? 24th April 2012 08:18 PM

I hate IDENTITY. and just all new releases. I think OUTGROW & her korean Girls on Top are the best ever :)

maze 24th April 2012 08:29 PM

^ I'm with you. OUTGROW is my favorite, I loved all the singles from this era, and her looks!
favorite korean album: Girls on Top and its repackage Moto <3

CoriKaru 25th April 2012 01:01 AM

Just realized I've never listened to a BoA Album.

Minttulatte 25th April 2012 04:34 PM

I realized there's no BoA album that I actually hate. o.o Is it weird or am I just easily satisfied? XD

Princess_Of_Roses 26th April 2012 02:38 AM

SInce people are posting on this thread haha. Can someone upload the love and honesty album for me. Ive lost it :(

I really like that album..... Ive got to say my fav album is...Girls on top. O_O haha BUt ive never heard IDENTITY. Guess I have to find that one too!

Zeke. 26th April 2012 02:43 AM

I hated LOSE YOUR MIND - how boring. lol.

I don't know if I could pick a favorite album... I have most of them on my iPod but it's not like Ayu or Kumi or Hikki where when I think of a certain album in my head I can recall all the songs. BoA's I don't really remember.

adantatu2 26th April 2012 02:58 AM

THE FACE :) :) :)
I miss BoA

Maemi 27th April 2012 06:24 PM

VALENTI is amazing! Some of her most amazing songs are there! I even like her first japanese album :P

aloopy 27th April 2012 06:34 PM

Hurricane Venus is her best album imo. Not sure about which Japanese album of her I like the most, they're all mediocre I think.

Maemi 27th April 2012 06:57 PM

I just could never get into her korean albums. There are a couple of songs I like, but the only album which I have is Hurricane Venus, the others are terrible imo.

PetiteMonstre 27th April 2012 06:58 PM

Hurricane Venus is my favourite too. It's really good.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 28th April 2012 03:33 AM

OMFG IDENTITY is her WORST album ever!

Completely agree with you. The only korean album with decent album tracks is HURRICANE VENUS in my opinion...

The rest just have one or two good songs besides the promo tracks.

freedreamer 28th April 2012 04:48 AM

For her Korean songs, I only listen to HURRICAN VENUS, Copy&Paste, My Name, MOTO, Girls On Top, Spark..some ballads are really beautiful too..but a tad slow

aloopy 28th April 2012 05:08 AM

Her best ballad is Implode from Hurricane Venus album. She has many GREAT ballads but that song is just so damn touching lol.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 28th April 2012 05:08 AM

I've rarely listened to any of her korean stuff either.

I think I like Sara and Don't give a damn, that's about it.

Mirai Noah 28th April 2012 08:43 AM

I haven't listened to the Hurricane Venus album, but I do like My Name quite a bit. Girls On Top is pretty nice too.

[PICTURE] BoA’s photo from India revealed

http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-6ff2LbnVx8...0501_boA_1.jpg

Photo of singer BoA roaming in the street of India has been revealed online.

On May 1st, the production staff of KBS1’s “Road For Hope” posted the above photo via Twitter with the caption, “Asia’s Star, BoA in India! It’s already 40 degrees and it’s only 9 in the morning. The environment is unfamiliar and so is the weather. Now let’s go meet the children now.”

In the photo, BoA is seen dressed in her casual clothes and hat. She is walking be herself in a street in India while holding her camera. Netizens were curious what could she be doing in the country.

Netizens commented, “BoA missed I AM showcase because of her volunteer work in India?” “I’m happy to see BoA again” and more.

I feel the same way. Her Japanese stuff is so basic compared to her non-Japanese music. Why can't she bring fierce BoA to Japan?! :( I did like THE FACE though and I didn't hate her last original album.

Queen Bee 3rd May 2012 12:48 AM

I know a lot of people probably wouldn't like this but I personally would love it if she released Hurricane Venus (the entire album) in Japanese. I just think that album is perfect.

microphone 3rd May 2012 01:52 AM

I don't see why not. Isn't hip-hop really popular in Japan right now?

freedreamer 3rd May 2012 04:00 PM

yes i guess BoA is a living example of how K-pop is different from J-pop. Her K-pop and J-pop material have strayed so far from style unlike those No.1, Listen To My Heart days...Pop in that region has strayed apart from each other. Personally, I still love both styles very much. Sometimes it depends on mood too

PEARL 3rd May 2012 04:04 PM

^i missed THE FACE era, i want fierce BoA back in Japan! her recent *** stuff were bad....

Chandrachan 8th May 2012 04:10 AM

Cool BoA in India hope she has a great time there :)

Not Fade Away 8th May 2012 04:12 AM

I want BOA to perform a 10-year medley at the MAMA awards and just knock everyone out of the water.

Speaking of, does anyone know if SM is still boycotting MAMA?

She is the best female dancer in the world, basically (from what I've seen).

She just needs to go to MAMA, claim her throne, and peace out.

Pieces_of_SEVEN 16th May 2012 11:49 PM

BoA, can you get the hell back to Japan and give us a HOT new upbeat single? ugh, I'm waiting

PEARL 17th May 2012 10:48 AM

I need another bad drive~

Pieces_of_SEVEN 9th July 2012 05:37 AM

murasakinohana 9th July 2012 01:29 PM

Isn't she making her Korean comeback soon..?

BoA to hold comeback show ‘BoA 4354′ on SBS

Singer BoA who is returning to the K-Pop scene for the first time in 2 years with her 7th album will be performing her comeback show on SBS.

SBS will be broadcasting BoA‘s comeback show ‘BoA 4354‘ on July 28th. She will be showcasing her self-composed title song “Only One” for the very first time.

This program will be directed and managed by the staff of SBS ‘K-Pop Star‘, a show on which BoA displayed her attentive yet blunt judging style.

The number ’4354′ in ‘BoA 4354′ represents the amount of days that’s passed between BoA’s first debut stage which took place on August 27th 2000, and the date of the airing of the show, July 28th 2012.

Her new album drops July on 22nd through online music sites, and will begin selling off-line in stores starting on July 25th.

Also, why the complaints about the picture? It looks like her. I just think she looks a lot more grown up and mature, like her real age.

Utena 16th July 2012 10:21 PM

She looks pretty much herself in the picture, a bit thinnier than she used to be, but she just grow older so I guess it's pretty much normal :)

In all honestly, I don't know if the current generation still go crazy over BoA. I was watching I AM..and clearly I was the one in a handful of people hyping for BoA in the entire cinema...

Honestly, personally I find many of the boybands and girlgroups all sound the same to me. This is part of why despite everything, there's actually very few KPOP artists I like, and most aren't the most recently modern ones. I love BoA, but then I also like Ivy, Chae Yeon followed by the few modern ones Jay Park, 2NE1 & BIGBANG.
Still as far as BoA goes, I still believe she makes great music and has talent. I truly love her, and I believe that's what matters most to me. :)

Im still waiting for some of the good sellers to list it on ebay...

I think it clearly shows how BoA's period over the years in Japan has influenced her song writing :D..i mean..this song is clearly different from all that electro music u hear in K-Pop and vastly different from her Hurricane Venus material..and i think it's really good :yes
