Released: December 12, 2007
Review
It's been a really long time since I listened to BoA. Luckily, my faith in her singing has been slightly revived as I listened to her new catchy song Lose Your Mind. However, I made a terrible mistake by watching the music video before listening to the song by itself. For her past few releases, I've been listening to the songs only, so I didn't find much that I enjoyed.Some Praise...
- BoA's English is good. If she continuously said "lose your mind" in terrible English, it would be torturous enough to break prisoners. I'll criticize the way she says "girls," since you have to admit that sounds a tad strange.
- The vocals are decent and the song's hook is definitely the chorus. The chorus is addictive and energetic.
- The electric guitar solo is a good break from BoA's voice.
- BoA looks cute in her music video. She has a few styles, which will keep you occupied as you guess what she'll wear next. You might want to listen to the song first before you decide its quality, or you'll fall into the same deadly trap as me.
Things to get depressed over
- With the exception of the guitar solo, the guitar playing is awfully repetitive. Is it really necessary to get someone from DOPING PANDA for this? While it does complement BoA's singing and create a nice atmosphere, a little variation would be nice.
- If you remove the chorus, you'll notice that this song has almost no content. I love the chorus, it's well made, but I'm sure you can come up with something else for the other verses.

no ofence and gomen to BoA chun, but what the hell was that song? it sounds like something cheap and crapy that britney spears would sing. boys know what girls want? nada?? BoA chun can diffintly do a heck of a lot better then that!!
I thin you mean "BoA Chan" not Chun....
Anyways, this song is good to me, I like it, its a different feeling from the last album. I think that newer fans of BoA probably wont care too much for this song like the older BoA fans. Over all this is a pretty good song, but I must admit, she has done better songs in the past, but at least she didn't pull a Brit-Brit and sing "Gimme More" for majority of the song.
