BoA Will Eat You Up

Don't know who BoA is? Then you haven't been following the Korean and Japanese pop music scene the last few years.

BoA is a Korean pop singer who debuted at the age of 13 and has become a superstar in both Korea and Japan with numerous hit albums. Now at the age of 22, she is attempting (as so many other Asian pop stars before her) to make a splash in the US, releasing the English song "Eat You Up".

Here is the Asian MV

And here's the American version

The Asian MV version is much better. The American version just looks so cheap and amateurish.

As for the song itself...well, it isn't the best. The lyrics are ridiculously immature and it sounds like a cheap wannabe version of a typical Britney song. That being said, I hated it the first time I heard it and then discovered myself hating it less and less the 2nd and 3rd times. I now find it kinda catchy and it has a good beat you can dance to. Yeah...this song rocks! ^^

But the girl definitely has talent, even if not evident in this song. And you can at least see how good a dancer she is. But of course, she's no Son Dam Bi.

Anyways, if you're interested, this song is also available on iTunes so check it out!
