Grammy nominated and platinum record selling rock band Weezer, famous for hits such as "Beverly Hills" and "My Name Is Jonas," has released the Japanese version of their new album "The Red Album" today. As a special surprise for the Japanese listeners, Weezer did a cover of one of BoA's Japanese ballads entitled "Meri Kuri" as a bonus track. Lead singer Rivers Comuo of Weezer commented that he was "instantly taken" by the song. Along with the release of Weezer’s Japanese album, BoA has also released her first Double A-side single, Vivid, on June 4th, 2008. The single contains Kissing You, Sparkling, Joyful Smile, and instrumentals. The three songs reflect her different music styles and have already gained a great deal of interest from fans. This is great for the promotion of BoA and SM entertainment. SM has been waiting patiently to tackle the American market, unlike JYP and YG entertainment who seem deemed to fail. Who do you think will be the most successful Korean record label in America?
