I first heard of BoA a couple of months back when I was channel surfing. I saw her "Atlantis Princess" music video playing on a Korean channel and I was so hooked by that song that I couldn't get it out of my head! I don't even understand Korean but really, the song is so good. It's upbeat, catchy and her vocals compliments it so. My friend bought this album as she's a fan too and so I borrowed it from her and it has her personality stamped all over it. Some of the songs I really liked listening to is "Milkyway", "Tree" and "Endless Sorrow". If you're thinking that since she's Korean, all the songs here are in Korean don't fret as there's one song at the end titled "The Lights of Seoul" which is in English so keep that in mind before you judge. This girl is going to win the world over for not too long. She has accomplised a lot at such a young age and it won't be long till the whole world notices it too. I just hope that she sings more English songs so that she could accomodate international fans as well. She's up there, with all the other great Asian singers that I admire (Utada Hikaru, Vienna Teng...). If you're looking for something a bit out of the ordinary (Well, it's in Korean right?) and really infectious in nature, buy this album. Music can break down language barriers, that's for sure.

After the debut of 13 year old Korean sensation BoA in Seoul, she promptly moved on to Japan and successfully conquered it (was the first KOREAN artist to do so. *applause*). After three years from her 1st album (there's also a 1.5 album before the second) BoA released "No.1". I liked that one, but prefer this one. "Atlantis Princess" (aka "Atlantis Girl" in korean) is very good. Much better from her earlier Korean albums. The title song, Atlantis Princess is my favorite. Namu (Tree) is a slow ballad that is alot better than Neul from her second album.
Milky Way is a very catchy, peppy song that's danceable, singable (even if you don't understand the lyrics) and was chosen for one of Japan's important events. All of the songs have good beats, fun sounds, and a very promising and very successful singer at the center. I highly recommend this album.
I can't wait for BoA's works to come. She's on her way to conquering the world.

In response to one of the reviewers down there, BoA does have quite a nasal voice, but then again, i thin its unique, (if ur looking for nasal go straight to ayumi hamasaki!! haha).

I feel that Boa truly shows what she can do vocaly, who she is, and where she comes from though this album. The song that stuck out to me the most was, "Tree." It's very natural, and Boa sounds amazing. Also, her English is incredible in, "The Lights of Seoul." If you want to hear what BoA is REALLY made of, I suggest getting this album.

I love this album and many BoA's songs. In this album, I love "Tree" most. It beautiful but a little sorrowful. I also like "Atlantis Princess" but not very. However, this album is not so good as the albums before in my opinion.

Boa is a very beautiful young lady whose vocals are guaranteed to inspire goose bumps! The accompanying music is as lively as Boa is hot!

All I can say is that I cannot believe how bad she sings. she sounds like a cross between a baa-ing goat and a screeching cat.i think my ears almost bled after hearing this crap!!! I would give this -5 stars if i could.
