BoA-14th Japanese Single "Merikuri" Information Update
 
UPDATE

BoA's 14th single is called 「メリクリ」, or in other words, "Merikuri". Apparently, there's going to be three different types of releases:

04.11.10 (CD)
04.12.01 SACD (Super Audio CD)
04.12.01 DVD Audio

The song will also be the BGM for the new TOSHIBA W21T CM.

As mentioned before, "Merikuri" will be a ballad song.

LOL I don't get the SACD/DVD-Audio stuff with Avex lately... I can't wait to hear some of this ballad... Isn't 'Merikuri' like Merry Christmas or something? Thanks for the info AyuLover! :)

They shorten everything in japan. IE compyutah is usually shortened to compyu. So meri-kuri is most likely shorted merry christmas.

thx for the news!!!

AyuLover 17th October 2004 06:33 AM

"Merikuri" is supposed to be a shortened way of saying "Merry Christmas". It's like the Japanese version of "X-MAS". =)

Thank you. I also thought it was Mercury... lol

ImpactBreaker 17th October 2004 09:54 PM

It would be much dooler if it meant Mercury :rolleyes. Anyway, isn' this supposed to be her 15th single? Or isn't "Don't start now" considered as a single at all?

Calico 18th October 2004 03:47 AM

Wow, another single already? BoA's on the fast track!

And she looks really nice in those pics. I like the first one a lot. :yes I hope it's a good ballad!

No, "Merikuri" will be BoA's 14th single. "Don't start now" was a special single, so it isn't in the official single numeric system. "the meaning of peace" was an extracuricular Avex charity single, so it wasn't counted...same with her featured singles.

I thought "Merikuri" meant 'mercury' too. xD
