American Songs

[Lizzyboo]

i personally think (without bias) that alot of Big Bang songs and 2ne1 songs would be very popular over here because they are very dance hip-hop lol and hip-hop dance is definitley what is selling over here. i also think this because there have been occassions where i have been listening to one of those two bands and people will hear the music and ask "oh that sounds cool, who is that?" and as soon as i say a korean band they just say "oh.." and it makes me think "really? just because its in a different language you have to just abandon it like that?". but yes so i think these bands would do very well in america.

i also think Jessica H.O.- "Life is good" would sell here

A LOT of Korean music is very American-sounding, actually. But yeah, unless they learn good English and ditch the accent, it still wouldn't fly in the U.S. And even then, the fact that they're Koreans would be against them. It's a shame that's how it is. (Really, BoA did her English album perfect, in terms of what she should do for music in the U.S., and she improved so much in her English - hardly any accent at all! I thought she'd do a little better than what she did, but no. :\)
