Which do you prefer: BoA vs. This Is The One
Which album do you think is better? Since both are being released in Japan, I guess this is an asian music poll.
BoA's "BoA: The First Album" or Utada's "This Is The One" no flaming plz.. keep this civil, stans! |
BoA. i like all tracks on that album whereas i only like about 2-3 on Utada's
|
BoA !!
This is the one is good, but "BoA" is a lot better!!! |
BoA, i'm a sucker for dance,electro,techno like music
|
BoA.
i mean, i like Utada's "This Is The One" as well, but i prefer the musical style on "BoA". it makes me want to go clubbing. xD |
Utada. BoA's album sounds like a bootleg Lady Gaga CD with too much vocoder and Engrish, and not enough decent melodies. Utada's is a masterpiece, probably the best CD of the year. :yes
|
BoA's albums.
It's one of the best albums as of late. I didn't like hikki's album much. |
BoA :)
I quite like hikkis album, but there's nothing really pleasant or interesting for me... and I have better things to do with 1hour of my life. |

Like everyone with the exception of Kang, I love the album. I actually liked mostly every song on the album. The only two I didn't like was Eat You Up and Dress Off. Sure the album has Engrish and they used a vocoder, but this is the type of album that is most likely to succeed in the US. On a somewhat unrelated topic I put Scream under the OK colum in my review and yet, it is the most play song from the album. Can't wait to go to Target and buy an actual copy. |
This Is The One
I only like 4 songs on BoA (Eat You Up, Look Who's Talking, Hypnotic Dancefloor and Obsession). Now I haven't listened to all This Is The One's previews yet (waiting for the album to arrive), but so far, I'm already in love with most of the songs I've heard! And on BoA, there's just 1 song I'm really in love with, and that's Eat You Up. |

BoA, sadly ;/
|
Hmmm about me i like both but i'll choose BoA Cause i like the dance style
|
BoA, definitively. It's such a well-made dance album.

BoA - the album is really well produced dance album and I really like it even though there are a couple of songs I don't listen to (like 2 of them Dress off and Look Who's Talking) (though I can listen to them). On the other hand there are only 3 tracks on This is the One that I love, while I think the others are simply bad. So yeah I too am hoping BoA will be the one to actually succeed in the States in time.
|
This Is The One. The tracks on there were catchy, fun, and great. BoA's were, well, her voice was too vocoded for my liking, and I just couldn't get into the dance tracks. Utada's was easy listening, BoA is for clubbing, and I prefer lighter listening.
|
um...
hard to say... atm I like tito better...but boa's is better for america, as it is more mainstream. that said...I also feel boa's is a little less original...which is kind of a let down... they're both on the same level. They both have cool songs and stuff, but they also have disappointing drawbacks. tito for me though because...boa's voice and engrish seriously bugs me...but that's a personal thing so...yeah. |
Utada - This Is The One.
I really liked the album more than BoA's album. ^^ |
BoA, by a long shot. Hikki's album was alright, but BoA's wow <3 I'm a sucker for that dance stuff, seriously.
Hypnotic Dancefloor, oh my god, I'd burn up it's dance floor if you know what I mean |
ugh this is hard. they're both good in their own ways. but...i think the final answer will be BoA's album for me. i still love utada's album, though. there should be a "both" option, lol.
|
I'm sorry my lovely Hikki but I go for BoA this time <3
|
Boa trying to be catchy, but din catch my attention, yeah the songs are young and danceable but i just dont feel it. Both this album is totally different. I prefer Hikki style.
|
I definitely prefer Utada's album muscially, waiting for it to release on Itunes, but as for which one is "has better appeal and has better beats" it's definitely BoA. So I choose BoA in the end because, I really thought it would suck initially. After I listened to it just blew my mind out of the water. Eat you up did not bring it justice. xD
|
BoA is a more powerful album in my opinioin.
I like the snippets I've heard from Come Back to me and Mr Lawrence but it's not comparable to the energy in BoA. BoA has more danceable tracks and feels like it had more effort put into it than TITO. |
Utada's album was pretty good considering Exodus but I'm sorry, BoA wins this hands down.
|
BoA:
Spoiler:
Utada: Spoiler:
I voted for This Is The One...lyrically unique, musically palatable, this is the one I see reaching the ears of U.S listeners and critics and actually making an impact in the industry....of course, from the Asian market point of view this Album really sucks and I doubt the Japanese audience is actually buying the album for the music... |
I picked this is the one. I just like the style. Its laid back nice and relaxing. the album is just very nicely done IMO. Even ifshe doesn't become a commercial success I still think this album was worth making.
I think BoA's music is more mainstream, but i can't get into it... it just sounds like britney songs that I don't like. I also agree with xheartstation that the tracks really don't seem unique and sound the same. I'm not sure I think my opinions might be HIGHLY bias due to the fact Lady Gaga's The Fame album was an electronic pop dance album and it was just amazing and I finally bought blackout by britney and it was Really good too. I just cant find BoA's songs on this level : ( |
BoA
|
This Is The One
BoA is too dancey and badly generic. I was really hoping for something good to come from her but she failed to deliver that goods. :( |
BoA
With BoA I really like her english music, but don't really care for her japanese or korean music. And with Utada, I like her japanese music, but don't really care for her english music.. |
There should be a other option. I'm not sure with I like more. They're both good but different and have thier own moods to them.
|
there's not a BOTH option because this poll asks which one you prefer.
41 vs 21, i guess people enjoy BoA more :love i have to agree |
Utada by quite a bit.
|
BoA's definitely.
Hikki's was a diappointment. |

Ah well... *votes anyway* |
They're both mediocre but TITO is kinda boring and samey a lot :/
|
This Is the One for sure. I mean, don't get me wrong BoA's is a great album, but I'm a huge R&B fan, especially the pop-infused stuff on TItO. Seriously, this album is like tailor-made for me, but BoA's is very good too. My biggest problem with it is that the songs all sound too similar to each other but still i like them. StarGate can't make a song that I don't like... seriously.
BTW, BoA's kinda succeeded by reaching #20 on the iTunes Top 100 Albums chart... maybe a top 100 debut on the Billboard 200 on Thursday? |
THIS IS THE ONE. THIS IS THE ONE. THIS IS THE ONE.
There were like three or four good songs on BoA and the whole album sounded the same. I was so disappointed with it. This Is The One, on the other hand, blew me away. Way to go mainstream and still make great music, Hikki! :D |
BoA definately. it's great album IMO.
This is the one is very very boring album. i really like exodus but this is the one like a nightmare |
This Is The One for me. BoA had a few catchy tracks, but the album as a whole wasn't as great as This Is The One.
|
This Is The One, no doubt.
I just can't stand BoA's english album, like how I can't stand Eat you up. >.> The whole song is such a... it's so awkward. On the other hand, I actually really LIKE some of Hikki's tracks on This Is The One. |
Utada's Album Eats BoA's Album right on Up like Apple & Cinnamon.
I pick "This Is The One" obviously. |
I like BOA more... however I think that this is the one is more original..
|
I like BoA
|
When i first listened to both albums, I love THIS IS THE ONE and found BoA boring.
After 1 month later, I love BoA and found THIS IS THE ONE boring... LOL! |
BoA. by far. i still like all the songs on it. i don't like TITO and i only bothered to listen to two tracks for a second time.
|
Now that I've listened to both albums more I have to say that This Is The One is actually a million times better than BoA's album which actually has no ballads in it (and I hate it cuz I love ballads). Utada's album is also full of music that Hikki wrote herself and I really respect that. And also vocally I think Hikki's album is better. :)
I also found BoA's album boring. :D So I picked This Is The One. <3 |
Both albums are FANTASTIC!!! But wow, BoA's just too awesome. I wasn't really expecting to like it that much. THIS ALBUM IS TOO AWESOME!!!

Anyway, This Is The One is a much more solid album than BoA's. BoA's consist of the same bland beats you can find in commercial American music, so it certainly brings nothing new to the table. |
I like Hikaru much more than I'll ever like BoA, but I have to admit that BoA did a much better job this time around. Honestly, though, they're both very unoriginal and mainstream. The only thing is, BoA's album is current US mainstream, where Utada's album was mainstream a few years ago, lol.
|
I like them both equally, but I think BoA should get my vote, it's got something that Utada's album is just missing. I love Utada's lyrics, but I just preferred the actual music of BoA's album, and her music videos were much better too, so BoA.
|
This Is The One
|
Both are pretty okay, but BoA's a bit better.
|
Both are nice albums but I prefer This Is The One a bit
|
boa duh
i only liked come back to me |
BoA
i remember when i go to my local cd store i saw BoA's n Utada's, n i ended up only buying BoA lol |
Well....I really loved TITO more. BoA's album wasnt even an album...it was like...a CD full of half assed, vocoder-ed dance tracks...Hikki really grew from Heart Station....and her lyrics have meaning....and now, she's on tour :luv2.....BoA's album just caused to flop, flop, and...develop gender identity issues 0_o
|
This is the One :yes
|

I preferred TITO. :P |
Definitely BoA, her album is very powerfull. Utada's new english album is hopeless - far far behind "EXODUS" (which was great).
|
BoA.
|
This is the one
I like BoA but I can't take all the engrish |
I really didnt like them both, But BoA had a more american feel that this is the one which was the whole concept. Besides BoA is more dancy. :D
|
BoA all the way :D
|
BoA
|
This Is The One. Don't get me wrong, I like BoA and all, but after listening to it religiously for a week I just got tired of it and now I can't really listen to any of the songs on it. :(
|
BoA. This is The One did nothing for me
|
This Is The One from Utada. I liked it soooooo much better than BoA's CD.
|
This Is The One never liked BoA
|
Both weren't great for me... But if I had to choose, I'd pick BoA's. I like some songs unlike in TITO.
|
BoA, i only love Come Back to Me from Utada's english album....the rest are alright
|
TITO.
I only liked 3 songs off "BoA" |
BoA!!!! <3<3<3<3
|
BoA is a really great album, i love Scream, Did Ya, Eat you Up, Energetic and I Did it for Love !!!
|
This is The One
|
BoA's, but neither were that great :no
|
I could of sworn I posted on this thread already.....
I hate to say this but BOA's album was definitely the better album for me. I am a huge Hikki fan but I prefer the electronic/dance sounds that BOA had to offer. Hikki's sounded too unoriginal. Her album reflects what was popular 5 years ago. TITO was a step down from Exodus. Sorry Hikki. |
This Is The One
|
This Is The One
|
This Is The One
|
BoA - nothing beats Energetic from this album ^^
The only good song from Hikkis' album is Come Back To Me, and even that's pretty awful xD |
BoA.
