Listen, that album may have been a disaster, but it brought us an English version of Girls On Top, Touched, Scream, and Dress Off, so I'm not complaining.
I'm really excited for BoA's comeback. Only One was, in essence, great but I hope she brings something a little more substantial this time. The real followup to Hurricane Venus.

Even though Femme Fatale lacked any Britney flavor to it and the lack of enthusiasm was CLEAR and the tracks easily could've been handed to K$, Katy, any other white pop star at that time, the production was OUT of this world during certain tracks and there were some songs that really stuck out.
"This is for all my bad girls, not bad meaning bad but bad meaning good." I mean......... I'll take Eat You Up over that trash anyday.
EDIT:
EXACTLY BLUEBERRY, YOU GET IT.
Scream is a masterpiece and so is Touched. Let me go off to Hypnotic Dancefloor right now. What a time that was.

Yet that line is so iconic though...when will Eat You Up have such an iconic lyric?

That line isn't iconic in any sense. Try again.

For a two year old song that flopped, the fact people just remember that specific line shows the impact it has. True icon right there.
As iconic as Naega Jeil Jal Naga

It's iconic in a bad way. Not bad meaning good, but bad meaning bad, y'know?

For a 6 year old song WITH zero promo that was "generic", you sure remember it. Sad.

In the vain hope that people don't realize she's a member of T-ara and actually buy her album.

Damn, T-ARA needs to just give it up.
And why are these companies allowing A Pink, GsD, SISTAR and SNSD all release at once? Mess!
