As the resident [livejournal.com profile] poptimists bosh expert I have been solicited to provide a definition. The first mistake people make is assuming that 'bosh' and 'bosh remix' have the same meaning.

boshing adj*.
1. Possessing of an enjoyable up-tempo beat that inspires the listener to get up and strut their funky stuff, or indeed wave their arms in the air like they just do not care. Said beat must be pounding but, although veerp veerp noises are common they are not mandatory. It is not necessary for an entire song to be boshing.
usage: 'The chorus to this tune is well boshing, I'm going mental!'

bosh n. Any song that could be described as 'boshing' (see above).
usage: 'I am totally going to play some bosh at Poptimism innit.'

bosh remix n.
Eurobeat or rave version of a pop song that would not normally be classified under one of the aforesaid genres. Possessive of high bpm 4/4 beat, alternative vocal mix (usually sung by a non-English-speaking female). For example, one could not satisfactorily make a bosh remix of 'No Limits'. This is because one cannot improve upon perfection. Although other genres may be boshing (see above) their attempts at pop song conversion are usually misguided.
usage: 'This is well good bosh remix of that Meatloaf track, score!'

Am I right? Let the debate commence!

*It might be a verb. It ends in 'ing'! But it is a describey word not a doing word so I put adj. Fear my langwich skeelz.
