Eat You Up only sounds okay. It's messy. The PV set in the room looks good, the outdoor one looks really awful and dated.

I like that she's trying but she'll bomb hard...and the music will need to be a little more 'now' than Eat You Up, lol.

The version in the room is the Korean MV. God knows why they didn't use the better video for the US :lol: I kinda like it though, trashy catwoman lus it shows off a little bit of her awesome dancing.

Well we've only head a 50 second clip so far, I don't think it's fair to judge it ourightly yet. I think it sounds pretty good, could even be semi popular [especially with the Flo Rida collab.] I'm proud that she's got this far already though, SE7EN and RAIN have been trying for years and can't get past press conferences :P

I don't know whether the U.S will ever be ready for a BIG Asian artist though. Nobody has succeeded yet [Lolz for Hikki trying again] but I hope she can. :heart:

Hikki has a hugely better shot at it than BoA, really :heehee: I don't want to sound like I'm hating though. I like some of BoA's music, I just feel she'd have been better doing an English-language version of 'Aggressive' or something instead. God, that'd be ace.
