Review & Lyrics

LYRICS: [♥]

I Did It For Love Feat. Sean Garrett

Catchy scary laughing as the opening works pretty much, fast verses and hooks. The repetitive chorus is just so clever. It won’t easily get out from your head. The fast beats is so danceable, the background music is well-synthesized. Her electronized voice also sounds pretty necessary when Sean’s part is too. The bridge is dominated by Sean when BoA’s part comes with club-like bass-drum beats. It’s a great opening when it will give a feel that the rest of the tracks sound pretty hot. It’s an addictive track.

Energetic

Catchy synths, fast and catchy verses are so cool, basically this son targeted to be played on the club, so it’s pretty influenced with bass-drum in some parts, the chorus is quite repetitive when you won’t find any change in every single chorus. It doesn’t sound boring, though. It’s probably one of the best tracks from this album with a messy-professional touch when you find the verses, choruses and hooks are pretty randomized (if you listen to it carefully you won’t find it as a randomized one). An outstanding track.

Did Ya

Funny opening, catchy though. The first track that shows BoA’s real power. The lyrics are funny. It’s a one plus point. The instrumentals are heavily influenced with oriental feel which brings a unique feel to this song. The beats are simple, acoustic guitar played fast. The bridge is damn catchy. And the chorus ‘shoulda shoulda’ part wont easily get out from your head either. I found myself singing this song all day long. Anoher great track.

Look Who’s Talking

The background music is heavily synthesized, the drums pounding strongly. Electronized verses, Catchy chorus, and slightly different bridge which brings unique blend to the song. The composition is pretty boring since there’s not any changes in the way she sings the chorus. If she brings higher note at the last chorus it will be great. The lyrics are hot. A grower song

Eat You Up [♥]

Catchy opening beats, as you know her voice is pretty robotic here, but I get used to it now, and no offense it’s so catchy. The verses match the background main beat well when the chorus sung in airy voice. The bridge is hot and delivers us to the last great chorus. The repetitive chorus used to be one of my favorite quote LOL. I still like this song like what I did.

Obsessed
Men’s hhh-ing on the background helps the heavily synthesized so much at the beginning. The main beats are heavily synthesized when electronic guitar also necessary. All of the part in this song are catchy, the verses are hot that she added some pressure on her voice when she says ‘Night and day..’ and the ‘Love love love’ part sounds extremely promising. The chorus is so enjoyable and I love the bridge also. It’s so strong and catchy. A powerful track, you will like this song when you like Rihanna’s Disturbia.

Touched

The most professional track in this album. The opening part is the catchiest opening in this album. I found an opening is a necessity to make people to hear to this song. The orgel part is catchy and so are the synthesized and electronized instrumentals. The verse is strong and I like it even more than the chorus. She sings it in a right composition when she varies it with strong, sexy and airy voice.The hook sounds so perfect. The chorus is catchy but not better that its own verse in my opinion. And she dosn’t sound like herself in the chorus, they have changed the her voice, but I still can clearly hear her voice on the background The bridge is kind of out of tune but still delivers well to the last chorus, unnecessary though. Cool track.

Scream

Scary Lyrics, that’s my first thought. Dark instrumentals and quite danceable which brings a cool feeling. I feel her rock-edgy voice in the verse. The hook served with sexy airy voice. The chorus is strong and sexy. Though, this song doesn’t have a bridge. ‘Flesh and Bone Uh, You’re gunna bleed’ DAMN HOT LOL. A cool track

Girls On Top

I like the original version more, the lyrics remind me of High School Musical. Though the arrangement is great but seill her voice is slightly weaker than the original version. And new cool rap too Haha, I’m not going to be detail on this song.

Dress Off

Catchy opening, great short verse. Flirting voices and Hot additional on the chorus. The instrumental is put this song overall better. The bridge has slighlt grow on me. Partially the ‘Me, me, me’ part builds the last part to a better state. A hyped up track.

Hypnotic Dancefloor

Cool Opening, Simple beats pounding and wonderful synth mix well, She added sexy additional to her voice, she adds Uhh in every single sentence-ending. The chorus served very hot, with so many varieties. The bridge is damn cool with men’s voice added on the background, the rhyming sounds so catchy, Another high quality track.

OVERALL:4.9/5

BoA did a great third debut, Though there’s not any ballad in this album (which she good at) I found all of the tracks are enjoyable, danceable and I can sing along to it. No more words, just GREAT ALBUM! For whom loves Britney Spears, Rihanna or any other Dance Western singer, this album is hugely recommended.

A bit reviewing here, I’m not reviewing Girls on Top though, Hypnotic Dancefloor is catchy and hyped up Love this track, Look Who’s Talking, He he he I loved this song since the first time I heard it from the live rip, though this version is sexier, Obsessed is another Bossy from Lindsay Lohan I think, though this one is a bit Disturbia-ed, Scream is just like her previous DayDream, with slightly better effect and instrumentals, Touched, I don’t konw is that her voice or not!? Did Ya rocks my socks! It’s strong and fast, the real BoA we know Yah! Dress Off is a sexy track though, the chorus is! Energetic is the second Britney’s Gimme More LOL hahaha Love all of the previews!!! XD

Love it when find it not all of her track edit her voice, It shows the real her.

01. 永遠 (Eien means Eternity)

This song has grown into me since the last time I reviewed it. Simple instrumentals, unique piano and westernized men chorus mixed well, It’s a good up-beat ballads. fast verses are so danceable, filling chorus but served too weak, the bridge is obviously a bit too weak and too simple though it delivers us to a catchy last choruses. After watching the Music Video this song just grow on me in no time. This song is just different.

02. UNIVERSE feat. Crystal ay & VERBAL(m-flo)

Obviously the catchiest song in this single, Cool raps are delivered very well, BoA’s part is slightly weaker than Crystal Kay’s. And Kay oversings BoA in some parts. The chorus is damn catchy, served quick and groovy. 12 12 12 part is just a necessary additional, BoA’s part on every single chorus is sexy (how she sats BESTaaa, HEYaaa. OK That’s hawt). VERBAL’s part is just groovy. The point is all of them sing it in absolutely right way. And it makes it even catchier than ever.
I love this song even more after watching the live performance.

03. Believe in LOVE feat.BoA/ravex (Acoustic Version)

Simple guitar, angelic voice, rapid speed. The high pitches are gorgeous, though there’s something makes me think the original version is better: The Love, love love part is computerized, dear God it’s an acoustic song. Another high quality addition for a single.

Overall:

A quite good single, and it’s a unique combination to put all not pure Japanese blood in a song called UNIVERSE, BoA is obviously pure Korean, VERBAL is Korean Japanese while Kay is obviously not pure Japanese. This single is rock my sock

I’m sure my finger is only here
for softly touching your cheek
only for touching it

I’m sure the shining moon is only here
for me and you to forever look up at
it was only for us to look up at

Whenever I felt down
you were always by my side
You always smiled for me
but now you’re gone

From the palms of my hands
my sadness poors out in large drops, “My Love”
Tonight in this town
I think I’m the one who is crying the most

Because you loved me
I could become who I am now
Wind that carries time,
Somehow, bring back the eternity from that day
Bye Bye Bye…
Why did you say bye bye bye

Back then, there was that song we always listened to
It came on while we were standing at the corner
We shared our earphones together

Then you’d suddenly pull away
and the earphone would come out of my ear
and I pretended to get mad

Our eyes would meet suddenly
and our lips pressed together
You said you would always protect me

I gently reach up at the navy blue sky
I feel like my heart is about to burst
Just hold me, just one more time

If I could have been honest that time
This never would have happened
When I wake up, everything will be a dream
And then you’ll say jokingly
Bye Bye Bye
Why did you say bye bye bye

I was looking absent-mindedly at the people on the street
while walking with you, the rows of platanus trees
You said make pasta for me next time
and let’s go on a trip together next year
and that you’d always protect me, but..

From the palms of my hands
my sadness poors out in large drops, “My Love”
Tonight in this town
I think I’m the one who is crying the most

Because you loved me
I could become who I am now
Wind that carries time,
Somehow, bring back the eternity from that day

I gently reach up at the navy blue sky
I feel like my heart is about to burst
Just hold me, just one more time

If I could have been honest that time
This never would have happened
When I wake up, everything will be a dream
And then you’ll say jokingly
Bye Bye Bye
Why did you say bye bye bye

I’m looking for your voice
I’ve got this feeling that I heard your voice
I stopped, alone, in the midst of a crowd

I’m looking for your touch
There is nothing that a promise can bring now
You’ve noticed my tears for sure

I’m looking for your heart
The loneliness only thickens
When I let go of my silent heart

I’m looking for your love
Why can a person with unspeakable hurts
Bear to go on?

I believe The overflowing tears
Never be alone
Reflect our indelible wishes

I believe I’ll reach it someday
Never cry again
And I’m holding on I believe
Believe in love

I’m looking for my fate
Our future was supposed to be decided (?)
But now, I can’t tell

I’m looking for my faith
Speaking lies a bird faces that sky
That will be bringing a new tomorrow

I’m looking for my dream
I remember our fateful memories
I’ll give you the shining answers to them

I’m looking for my love
I was willing to take even sadness, even goodbyes
From the very beginning

I believe The unstoppable tears
Gonna smile again
Gather the brilliant light

I believe We will meet for certain
Gonna find my way
‘Cause I’m moving on I believe
Believe in love

I’m looking for my step
There are unspeakable hurts in my heart
But still, I walk on

I’m looking for my smile
A ceaseless rain will never come (?)
I believe in the ray of light
