BoA Shock

Well I was at Popular Bookstore at Leisure Mall, and when I browsed through their Music CD section,. I found this:

BoA's previous single album; ~brand new beat~/Your color. My first shock was the price; a whopping RM79.50!!! For TWO songs and ONE music video! As compared to her Outgrow full album which was only selling for RM65 (14 songs and FIVE music videos). Anyways, I turned the album around to see the back 'Your Color' art cover (The front only shows ~brand new beat~).


...and here it is. I then examined the funny foreign sticker there...


RATED PG?!? Parental Guidance????? BoA??? WTF???

This calls for research!
Here's the translated lyrics for Your Color:
Within this vast world,
I met you that day and fell in love.
Even though I thought that up until
nothing is really improving.

I'll tell you at the end of today's setting sun...
Why are my tears...

Even on the evenings we can't meet,
I start to feel so uneasy.
I'll protect the things I love,
it's the first time I've felt this,
the night of your color.

I've fallen in love with you, even though I don't know the reason,
even though I've also never thought about it.
but the first time I met you, I've realized
the implications of love.

The times we spent together is passing by quickly.

Even during the times I'm unable to meet you,
my tears slowly flowed down.
Even up until now its been so painful on me,
because truthfully from my heart you're precious to me.

The waves of time are approaching
our sandcastle of happiness.
Bit by bit I'll face my anxieties,
I definitely won't be defeated.

Even during the times I'm unable to meet you,
I have to try to be this strong,
I'll be all right because tonight...
...I'll meet you in my dreams.

Even on the evenings we can't meet,
I start to feel so uneasy.
I'll protect the things I love,
it's the first time I've felt this,
the night of your color.

And ~brand new beat~:
feel my brand new beat
because i'll convey my emotions with my prismatic expressions

so cool, so bright, feel so good [repeat]
don't look back
baby always look at me

i can't help our feelings from overlaping
my sense of reasoning can't be stopped at this moment
as it blossomed from my lips as i was day dreaming
you keep getting lost again and again
across the other side of the open window
always overlooking at my blue bird... (etc.)
[The rest can be viewed in the subbbed music video below]

WHAT is it in those lyrics that needs a PG rating? 'sandcastle'? 'blue bird'? It takes a very imaginative mind to decipher those words into naugthy stuff, mind you.

OK fine, since the rating was given by Singapore's Board of Film Censors (which explains the hefty price), let's check out the ~brand new beat~ music video found in the DVD then then..


I don't see anything nosebleeding about it (save her kawaii looks). I mean, Beyonce, Kylie & Jlo can do alot more harm compared to her.

So why PG? The ppl down south must be monks or something. (but definitely NOT those down under)
