I don think she is depressed- when you get a bit older you get restless, unfortunately. I agree that BoA’s japanese stuff has lost alot emotionally. I believe if people actually get past how she’s exploited and whatnot, they can see the beauty of her lyrics. (But then you probably knew that huh? lol)Īs, in my eyes, BoA’s ballads are more uplifting, saying I love you, Kuu’s ballads are more downplays, expressing the hurt which is clearly shown in “hands” and “you”, though I must say that “Pearl Moon” is beautifully simple in saying that seeing one’s name in the inbox makes her happy or that a simple phone is all that’s needed to close the distance between her and her lover. If you really do love me, then try and tell me so It’s more of a “I feel betrayed why are you doing this to me?” as shown in the lyrics: “Amai Wana” does have emotion in it, but not the emotions of “I love you I wanna be with you” as displayed in “Everlasting” and “your colour”. Now as for the songs mentioned by Kuu, I really doubt “Under” had the intention of being “emotional”, just “lustful”, so I’m not sure if that really counts. ballad), “Everlasting” displays tons of emotions as well as “OUR LOVE” and “your colour” (The Boa the LIVE version was GORGEOUS.) *giggles* (Since Kuu’s Japanese, I’ll only say something about BoA’s Japanese ballads.)Īs for BoA (even though “Candle Lights” is my fav. (I mean hell, if I was the number one artist in two different countries, I’d get tired at some point, too.)Īs for emotion, I don’t think BoA’s losing it, per say, it might just be a wee bit subtle, and well, I believe you can’t really compare Kuu’s emotion to BoA’s, but I’ll try anyway. lol) I think she’s doing pretty well despite people saying she’s losing her position. (Can’t decide where it ranks with OUTGROW and MIT as those two are fighting for the number one spot. In truth, I haven’t gotten through the entire tracklist (yet), but I think this is a pretty good album. Once she “wakes” back up, she’s just as energized as ever. As for her being depressed, I don’t think it’s that so much as her just being burnt out in general, as in more of a “OMG! I’m tired! *faints*”. ^^ BoA is such a lovely artist, but I wish she’d produce another Korean album. Ok i grow to love this song after someone dear to me loved it 😛 Started like WOW, went to OK chorus, ended like WOW I wonder why Karimu hate this song but here take this on the face Still addivted to this song and i will be forever Ummmmm someone dear to me loved this song when he heard it lol… People around here knows that am R&B lover from the picks all around this blog, this song reminds me of WINDING ROAD, but WINDING ROAD is a lil better hehe… I loved this song since forever, but it doesn’t deserve more than what am going to give it… I didn’t even imagen BoA would pull such a style good intro, although am not TRANCE Fan, but i like the lyrics and the arrangment is so good 9.2/10
