I Did It For Love

There are those few times when a music video makes a good song seem exceptional. This is the case with BoA's latest single, "I Did It for Love". Her video is reminiscent of Bob Fosse's use of props and style of choreography. One prop that shines above the rest is the Asian hand-held fan that BoA uses.

Please tell me I am not the only one thinking about buying one now??

The song itself has a strong Rhythmic/Dance beat that is becoming the norm in U.S Radio. Think Flo Rida and Timbaland. Unfortunately, Asian musicians do not do well in the United States music market. Yet there is hope. Utada, BoA's contemporary in Japan, did have a minor hit this year with "Come Back to Me."

BoA has been successful in South Korea and Japan releasing her 1st American Album, "BoA", earlier this year. "I Did It for Love" is her follow-up single to "Eat You Up" which hit number #8 on the U.S Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart.
