The song is okay but I don't really know if I like it or not yet! She looks pretty good in the video though, she needed a drastic change and she barely looks like the old korean BoA. I love it.

I'm finding that the MV's growing on me the more and more I watch it. I can't wait to see the cover for the album. I have really good feeling about this one.

I do like it ... but it feels a bit disjointed and I don't like those moments when they double her voice.

It's gotten me interested, but I'm not in love yet : P

^For definite sure. Just great. I hope all this does something positive for her popularity levels.

Oh, and some side good news. I was looking at some stuff and I'm getting some money from my government at the start of August, so looks like I'll have the cash to buy the album right away after all.

I like the song more when I'm not watching the video. The video has a few good scenes but the whole thing is a mess

The song is actually pretty good....better than what I expected. BoA looked HOT throughout the whole PV EXCEPT.......those horrid brick wall scenes where she looks completely wasted.....but I don't mind. She's looked worse before and the direction of the PV is cool!. Can't wait for the ballad....

Because it's most likely more than what Bump Bump! sold on its first day and it's in line with her previous singles ; P
I was in the dark about how much BoA's singles sold. Never knew how much or how little.

ABOUT TO WATCH GAME!!!! CAN'T WAIT!

Although I liked it....I was kind of shocked.....I hope the title track is even better and actually "fresh and innovative." Cause this really is no different from whats in Kpop nowadays (but different from what BoA's been doing in the past 5 years so I guess they consider it fresh)....I dunno....its still kind of surreal to see her go from WOO WEEKEND at the beginning of the week to this all of a sudden.

The song is miles better than the majority of her Japanese works but it's still not as attention grabbing as Girls on Top etc. But in the video, when she was in the hoodie I gasmed! She actually looks good with heavy eye make up. Sooooooooooo hot <3

Ayu's my wife, but BoA will is my girlfriend!

^As for Girls on Top, i dunno if anyone read this but 'til now GOT was her lowest selling Korean album according to what I read. I guess we international fans liked it, but it didn't ride so well in Korea.

I guess that just goes to show how DRASTICALLY different local and international fans tastes are. That's why in all honesty, there really isn't a type of music that's better than the other. You know how in Japan the sugary cute songs cater to the locals and the experimental/fierce songs seem to cater more to international fans. Not that they write those kind of songs just for us, it just seems to be what we like the most.
