This was originally composed and written in English by Taehyung for his mixtape, .Taehyung said he wrote this song as a way to cope when he was feeling the most low. He expresses more about it in his Weverse magazine interview. - "뷔 “저희와 아미, 우리가 또다시 웃었으면 좋겠어요” It was no secret that Taehyung was going through a difficult time when this came out. He said “I experienced a lot of burnout & know it really well. Previously, I felt burnout as it is and it was mentally difficult. Lately I have felt like I’ve experienced growth & write songs about how I feel. In the past I had a hard time… but when I write a song about the feeling of burnout, I feel a sense of accomplishment. When a song is completed, it’s a thrilling feeling. It feels like I’m overcoming it using this.” 💜
This song is one of my favorites from the BE album, right below Dis-ease. V stole the stage for me on this. Can't believe Blue and Grey was supposed to be a solo song for him only. Thank you for reacting to this. Love y'all ❤
The last lines ' now I fall asleep at dawn, good night' hits hard. One- it's so relatable. My damn anxiety which keeps me up gives me more anxiety 😂. Two - V said he was suffering from burn out. Which is where this song stems from. I remember he would stay up sometimes till 4 in the morning talking to ARMYs on weverse and a making a mess for weverse moderators (Telling them to add some new features for him. I'm pretty sure he gave away an album at one point and just said weverse staff must handle it lol ). Also someone get Kurtis to react to Joons mixtape mono. I need a breakdown 😭. A muster is a gathering of military troops. The BTS fan meet/concert is called a muster because it's a gathering of ARMY. Lol I hope this makes sense.
Taetae is a real genius to write such an amazing masterpiece. And it's just one of his greatest songs which engulfed whole universe in it's warm. Taetae's deep heavenly voice is just unbeatable and addicting to ears 💜🐯🐻✌
So glad y'all went. The last set, when they came back in PTD shirts, that's the encore set. They do that for every concert. I know the concert seems short but it's actually almost 3 hours long and they only get a total of under a half hour for costume changes and preps for the next set. Their concerts are bar none, the best all around ... not just the performance, but the atmosphere and the entire vibe of everyone there being inclusive and so giving and sweet. Me and my 13 year old daughter went to two concerts in LA and I couldn't make it to Vegas but I sent my daughter with my girlfriend to Vegas. I wasn't worried at all because I know the vibe is so welcoming and safe and everyone takes care of one another. That's the beauty of ARMY. So glad you guys could go. Love watching y'all.
I get how Curtis felt...I am not the type of jumping, sing or scream due in my case of my shy personality but with ARMY you don't feel judge or that someone can make fun of you and just feel free and jump and sing loud if you want...the guys love that, they feed from ARMYS energy and viceversa!
"Blue & Grey" was written and produced by Taehyung and its success was of such magnitude that it debuted at number 13 on the Hot 100 chart and broke the record for best-selling downloads worldwide, becoming BTS's most commercially successful secondary song; undoubtedly a masterpiece made by a master musician 💚
Blue and Grey holds a lot of emotional feelings for me, when I first got into BTS, this was one of the first songs that I listened to by them. I listened to this when I was going through a hard time mentally and emotionally and I cried so much listen he to it, because I related to it so much. Great reaction
They usually have encores in their concerts with solo and group performances. This concert was different but also great. I think they'll bring them back if they go on world tour after their comeback
You guys were right about Jhope, he's energy doubled up in live performances, and he's so engaging to audience while dancing and vibing effortlessly, J-Hope is so cool. Ofcourse all the members too especially when they're goofing around randomly on stage.
1) The 7 songs after they said the concert was ending was the encore. 2) it was 2 + hours long so not sure how much longer you would expect a concert to be 3) Curtis’ breakdown was on point…again! Love to hear his response always 4) Repeat on PTD…that was a funny complaint 5) we all want BST but they had a lot of other bangers.
1- I keep saying that lol 2- when you’re there that time flys 3- 💯 4- thank you 5- they have 100000 bangers; that don’t take away from the fact that’s one of our fav songs and we wanted to see the whole track.. Those are just are thoughts and opinions 💜
THANK YOU LO...... Why should the American market be the end all be all. Hybe took over that Big Machine country thing.... doesn't mean BTS is thinking of going country. They could be trying to debut artists here in the US? Not every move Hybe makes has to be with BTS in mind. BTS can sell out stadiums in so many different countries, not only their home country, but not every American artist can sell out stadiums outside of the US. That's the difference.
one thing about this permission to dance concert series is that they purposefully decided to do only ot7 songs. at all of their past tours, they always had solo song spots for all of the other members to rest, however for this tour, they decided to do a greatest hits medley type of show, and all ot7, because they haven't toured in 2 years so they decided to go all out. since none of them had any rest breaks except for the vcrs, they definitely had to cut down on some of the dancing and on some songs as a whole, the set being tiring as it is.
When this album came out it was 6am my time and I cried so much listening to this song not even knowing each lyrics meaning but I still until this day cry so much, few months ago I lost my father and he was someone so special to me so so much he was my best friend and my hero loosing him hit me so hard I couldn’t do anything anymore it felt life has stopped from working but BTS really helped me go through it and this song always remind me of him I don’t know why but it does and it makes cry but it’s like the cry that relive you from pain that when the song end you gonna stop those tears and smile and feel much better after letting it all out
I think Curt hit the nail on the head with his analysis of Blue & Grey, always interesting to hear his opinion. Really dope y'all managed to see them in Vegas btw 💜
Lol babe😭...I'm random people in Africa. I been ARMY since 2014, my country loves them. But just to note on their reach and performance ability. My 60+ year old dad bought that damn BTS Samsung Galaxy phone for himself and didn't tell me (I have it now). He also saw his two favourite artists Michael Jackson and Tina Turner live in concert back in the day. He watches the live stream BTS concert with me and BTS easily made his top three performers. I guess my point is good music is gonna reach people no matter what. Also to African ARMY- UMG Africa said they are looking into selling BTS albums as of June. If you want details on your country email their helpdesk.
When a member is singing, he's usually the one that is shown on the screen. But while he's being shown, all the six other members are also vibing, and mostly interacting with fans, going close to them and smiling at them and throwing water at them lmao, it's just that it's not seen on the screen by people who are far from the stage lol.
I love how BTS is so consistent in putting out amazing music, performances, mvs, lyrics etc. that we have so much confidence in, that whatever they will do there gonna bring it and kill it. Who else would have so much confidence in to be sure that the music will be great? There's one aspect that I'm thinking about when it comes to BTS being recognized worldwide by everyone (they're already worldwide, but as you said becoming a name EVERYONE knows). I think it comes down to media. BTS is famously not trying to play by the industry "rules" - well in some aspects they are, but in a lot of ways they're bringing about a paradigm shift in the music industry. We already know music outlets and magazines and media try to down play or twist the narrative and the importance of BTS and the impact they're having. If any western acts where setting the records BTS are it would be all over the media, but they're constantly left out. E.g. when Adele set a record for most streamed song in 24 hours on yt it was everywhere in Danish news, but when BTS set that same record (with a much higher margin to the previous record holder) prior to Adele there was dead silence. This is just one tiny example out of heaps. It's difficult to say how big BTS is or could be, when there's not an even playing field. So BTS is and has been growing this big from nothing to where they are now despite everything. They were and they still are fighting against a lot, and they probably will for a long time to come. I think that's a small part of why I really wish to see them succeed as well (apart from their incredible music, the people they are and their values etc.) ... people trying to bring about fair represenation, give respect and money to the artists, don't let a few rich men dictate who get's to be played when and where, but let people have a say. And honoring the craft of music in all areas too - I've never known as much about music production, lyricism, sound mixing etc. etc. before BTS - they make me curious and give us a glimps of the proces and what it takes. Btw. have you ever seen the interview of Ken Lewis (he does a lot, but the focus here is on mixing and producing music) by another legend Pensando interviewing him. Ken Lewis did a lot of mixing for the BTS tracks - you might find it interesting? Link: ua-cam.com/video/c6RJEqJmGPk/v-deo.html Sorry about the long rant. These are just a few thoughts that I hadn't really sorted out.
agree Nick....I also love how Jin and Jk's voice melt together, it was my favorite as well but also the VMin did it great, "Blue &Grey" is not on my top5 but is on my top20 favorite BTS songs, I understand that may not be for everybody but his lyrics are top notch and the message that Taehyung try to deliver was understandable through this song...if you pay enough attention you'll feel the pain and sadness on it, thank you for the reaction guys!
I agree with the ending encore of permission to dance. They usually do that to distract army from feeling down when they leave. they would choose one song and have it play for a while so post-concert depression doesn't hit us quickly hahahahaha
Thanks for the YT and Patreon drops! And listening to everyone talk about the concert was beautiful. I actually just watched your first BTS reaction again and man, you guys have come so far in your journey! 💜
I'm so happy to hear you had an incredible time at the concerts. Just BTW: There was an encore. Idol was the last song - so after that you got about 3-4 songs + the endments. This concert might have been just slightly shorter than normal, but that's because it was all 7 songs playing throughout and most with tough choreo, so for them to be able to breathe and last all 4 concerts that had to do it like that :-)
@@REDEMPTION46 Knowing how they never want to leave the stage, they probably prefer 2,5 almost 3 hour concert like they usually do. I'm hoping and thinking we'll get solos on the upcoming album, so their next tour would likely be longer. Thank you for all your reactions, time and effort. Have you ever watched one of their previous concerts from start to finish? Like the last concert (day three) of the encore Wings Final concert in Seoul, or LYSY in Brazil, or the 2016 Live KYN Kayounenka on Stage: epilogue in Japan? You'll LOOOOOVE THEM!
Oh I wanted to let y'all know in case you don't know but RM mentioned that this set list was pretty difficult because it was OT7 throughout. Usually they get to breathe during solo performances.
Hey y’all Texas army here! I was also at D4 so i appreciate y’all’s perspective and conversation regarding their comeback! First off I personally didn’t expect them to do Blue and Grey live and when I heard their live vocals I was in shock and then my brain realized it’s live and i teared up cause damn they’re amazing. I also think they’re definitely going to go back to their roots just not sure what spin they’ll take yet cause they always surprise and do something new and creative but I think they definitely want to show off and kind of remind everyone where they came from. I think with their recent English tracks newer fans or new people just discovering them may think of them as pop artists but we need to remember their hip hop roots and rappers not to be taken lightly. RM definitely has stuff to say but i think he’s been holding back in light of keeping army in a positive mindset and trying to keep their image positive but some of the little things he’s been saying here and there leave me to believe that he wants to remind people who they truly are and that they’re not naive to the reality around them. I definitely agree with the point that you can’t have an album or comeback called “We are Bulletproof” and then give us themes and tracks that don’t emphasize that idea. Thanks for this video and happy y’all got to experience the concert. I can definitely say no one does it like BTS and it’s definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life thus far! 💜
aw Curt! i loved hearing your thoughts, so happy you felt all the emotions we usually feel when we see bts in concert 💜 im glad you all had a great time ! I understand what Lo means of expecting "I need U" because they did perform that song for the LA Dates, also... about the Encore, yes the Vegas shows were cut short, not sure why. For LA we got maybe 2-4 more songs, i remember they sang Spring Day, Young Forever and We are Bulletproof; The Enternal. They also had Baepsae, but like i said i dont know why they cut those off for the Vegas shows... maybe they will explain in the future.
Glad you guys had a great time in Vegas. Wow I love the TEACHER's breakdown as always. SO FARAWAY is another amazing healing song by Suga with Jinkook's beautiful harmonies. The original version ft. Suran is also beautiful.
Love Blue & Grey, Taehyung really captured that feeling that we’ve all felt and some of us have felt much more intensely over the past two years. It’s a beautiful song, beautifully performed live. I’ve now been to both the LA and LV concerts and both experiences were insane and the best concert experiences I’ve ever had. Part of it is definitely Army. They are an amazing fan base and it shows so much at these concerts. Helpful, patient (in the face of some pretty messed up stuff at Sofi), full of enthusiasm and happiness, and giving the energy back to BTS to get them hyped up as well. I think the LV one was better than Sofi because it came after the Seoul one that was so difficult for BTS without the audience able to cheer like they had hoped. Regardless, they were both amazing and I will do everything I can to go to another one as soon as possible.
There's a theory that is them reimagining No More Dream to Dream. Watch the end of On MV. You have to take into account that they are asians and foreigners. The music industry will never let them dominate without resistance. They've faced resistance since they debuted in America in 2017.
Suga helped Tae with the lyrics. I heard that Namjoon also wrote lyrics for it but he said his was rejected and Suga’s lyrics were accepted. I feel that was probably was because he has struggled more with anxiety and depression and could probably relate more to what Tae was expressing. Such a beautiful song as all Tae’s are.
I am so happy that you guys had this experience with us. ARMY comes out in full force everytime. My friend travelled from the Philippines just to watch them. She was only here for that. ARMY is a different breed. You know BTS stans their ARMY as well. When you are around each other breathing the same air you feel like you have been transported somewhere. That is why PCD (Post Concert Depression) is a real thing for us ARMYs. But since you guys stayed for the comeback announcement, I bet BTS was laughing and cheering behind the stage too. We need that cypher 5. Thank you for your reviews and for loving Bangtan.
Idk know if u knew but Jimin’s first ost for the kdrama our blues is dropping on the 24th at 11 pm kst it’s gonna be a duet with Ha Sungwoon, he is a soloist also a former member of wanna one and they are like besties, Jimin said on Vlive that this is a beginning for him and he wants to start trying new things, also media said it’s going to be an emotional ost so I’m really excited
I’m BACK!! Glad you fellas enjoyed your Vegas stay and the concerts! Makes me more determined for their next anticipated comeback and tour!! I’m feenin’ for some new music from them. Hobi…Hobi is a PERFORMER 💯… he wrecks you every concert!! Love that Zack found his bias 😆 💜💜💜
Kim Taehyung having whole diary where he wrote his emotions and most of his songs it's from them. Blue and Grey was also from his diary, it's an emotion of tae when he's having most hardest time in his life , he said " it was lowest point of his life " his depression time. He share with fans this song because covid time when tae interact with fans find out many of fans also suffering from depression so he said he will share with us lots of comfort songs.
Ya know Jin my biassssss so when that Jinkook note hit when BE dropped I was screaming, crying, throwing up, while sliding down the wall! 😂 Nick really the goat like look how deep Lo is! My boy knows about the Musters 😭 Love that everyone enjoyed ya time & the boys! 💜
I love your discussion regarding the concert. I can see how Jhope takes over your bais position when you see him on stage because lots of army do say he is different live even when they have biases they come out of there jhoped lol. As for the album Yoongi did say there will be a hip-hop albam coming but maybe they would change idk. As for the we are bulletproof part is that that's their name bangtan they hated their name in the beginning so now they are embracing it by putting it as the album name. Also there are 3 we are bulletproof songs if you heard the one on MOTS7 it's more of a balad than rap so I don't really now what it will be like but one thing for sure BTS will always have atleast one help song and one criticism song whether its for haters and/or government in every album constantly usually the other songs follow one of these two directions.
If you went to their consert in wings era you could have gotten a full performance for bst if you went to their consert in "most beautiful moment in life" era u could have gotten a full run, save me, I need you performance since u went to their BE era concert you got everything BE related BTS concerts r kinda album wise so all the other songs like bst, fire, bapsae r kinda extra cause they r famous they do every old famous album song+ new album songs in each tour so that's why all the old songs r cut short to give new songs more time your lucky you got even half of bst in the future they might shorten the time for these songs even more or not include them at all I hope not though btw glad you enjoyed the concert
ok so this is what i think for my guess as to what the album might sound like: i think it'll be hiphop heavy...they'll probably fuse it w/ other genres, but the majority i think will be hiphop. I'm saying this bc of the clues we've gotten. Yoongi saying to look forward to more hiphop soon, TM88 posting on twt in 2021 saying he's working on some songs for them, the snoop collab...also the "we are bulletproof" & joon talking abt going back to their roots. BUT i also think there might be some rock in there, and like i said they'll def do fusion w/ other genres too...like obviously they genre hop so yeah, i think it'll be a masterpiece honestly. i'm so excited! but thank you for the reaction and convos, glad u all had a good time :)
@@REDEMPTION46 guys we are bulletproof coming isn't a big deal because we are bulletproof is solid song but there is also a calmer song *we are bulletproof* just simply tell sthat they are coming back and also there 10 years celebration too so that's why there journey is there We are bulletproof doesn't mean they r dissing , we are bulletproof songs are always relate to bts and will be Note : bulletproof is there because that's what there name means *BULLETPROOF BOYS SCOUTS* *BANGTAN SONEYEONDAN* And about hip hop tracks well *for past 3 years BTS members are saying that they will have more hip hop tracks in future specially for album which gonna be released*
There is no need for BTS, to cater to the American market. They are worldwide global superstars with a loyal fandom Army. BTS, became the only act to top IFPI's Global Recording Artist of the Year, ranking for 2, consecutive years 2020 & 2021. They beat out artist like Taylor Swift, Adele, Drake etc... etc...
This song came out during the pandemic era and is part of the BE album. It will always be one of my comfort songs of that time. I also hear it time and time again whenever I feel myself the most down or feel like giving up. I also had the chance to see them during the last show in Vegas. (My city) The experience felt like family (army) getting together to have the best time of our lives! It didn't even feel like just a concert, even with like more than 200,000 people filling up the stadium. The energy felt in that stadium was so extravagant that I can still feel it in my spirit! So glad ya'll got the same chance to see them too! I hope we get to attend more in the future
This song made me cry the first time I heard it. Without even looking at the lyrics and only listening to them alone, the line "I just wanna be happier" really hit home for me. Mainly because this came out in 2020 and there was so much going on with the pandemic, and my grandmother was bedbound when the album came out. She made it a year before she passed away and now this song just comforts me whenever I feel sad. Their music has always made me feel things, but something about this album was the perfect timing. It really brought me out of my slump. 💜💜
THANK YOU FOR THIS ONE HOUR ! it was very interesting having all of you guys opinion on the concert and everything so thank you for your hard work !! (I'm already subscribed to your Patreon ahah)
Jimin and jungkook were interacting with the crowd closely. Like jimin was right next to the security guard in front of the audience dancing with them. So that's y it probably seemed like they weren't playing with the crowd cuz they weren't on screen as much because of it
As someone who has depression, this song I can relate so much also I really hope Taehyung releases the solo version of it that was going to be on his wonderful mixtape, also Agree about the Jimin comment, as someone who has a horrible past, Jimin or Minnie is like an Angel to me so his voice or anything of his helps, but yeah Jimin has a calming voice also I am glad to see another Vmin harmonize again its so beautiful their voices mixed together
Blue & Grey always gets me in tears. I could never avoid it no matter how hard I try. I'm happy you guys got to see them live. I can sense that you had a great time. I've been army since 2014 and never had the chance. I came close in 2020, had tickets and all but ... I guess it's not meant to be for me and just love them from afar.
I want to hear all about your experience at the concert. Watching your guys journey through to BTS has been really amazing. It's so great to see. It's exactly what I want to express to everyone who doubts about BTS that is unexplainable unless you experience it and give it a chance. ARMY and BTS and everything that means. *sigh* I'm really happy for you all.
Comeback: We been getting hints everywhere but it wasn’t until recently when ARMYs started noticing it (it’s even on the “Permission To Dance”-teaser!! Look at title of the cover n when the newspaper was dated. The comeback date, “volume” is 6 letters.) There is also talks about they’ll take a walk down memory lane (9 doors on each side of the BTS comeback logo, 9 years since debut) and that this comeback will give us an even more intimate access (musically, lyrically) to BTS “We Are Bulletproof” = “We Are Bangtan” and so forth. Concert: Normally - they’d get breaks in-between performances thanks to the other famous subunit/solo songs that’d be performed. This one, because PTD was their first time performing to ARMYs after such a long time, they wanted to be on stage, together, w ARMYs, as much as possible. I’m so happy you got to go to PTD LV n that ARMYs were nice to you 💜
You should listen to Suga's mixtape D-2. Specially the song "People" to really understand his word play. He tends to reference things he's Said before in his new tracks and kind of connects his art like that.
Right after be came out when bts were promoting, suga did mention that a few hip hop based songs are going to come, so hopefully the album incorporates those.
loved your talk about the album. I agree with the fact that they are great now. I hope they get to do whatever they want. Screw the American market and what they think lol. If the guys want more over here I want them to achieve it, but as an ARMY I don't care what direction they go.
I think there´s a reason for the rapline to have all of those solo projets - the mixtapes - for me they will tackle all of the serious themes and personal topics on them. Now, thinking about the themes of the new album anything can happen.
This is one of those songs you just wanna listen to on a bad day.. I've read on armytwt that if you try to listen to the beat more closely it kinda sounds like a heart beating and then them mentioning it in the lyrics.
And if your main complaint is that it wasn't long enough or you didn't get to see/hear enough BTS...I think that confirms they took care of business! 💜 And I LOVE that ARMY welcomed you guys! Most of us truly appreciate male representation.
the show is like 2.5, 3 hours long though, they have to rest hahah. and there is an encore, there's a break with a big vcr and then they come back with changed outfits and do like 3, 4 more songs, that's the encore. glad you guys had fun :)
I think it felt short to them because they aren't used to being so involved in something that time just blinks by. And then post concert depression hit some of them hard. LOL New experiences for the baby ARMYs. 💜
finally got around to watching the rest of the video, i always love your discussions so i want to listen well. imo, "we are bulletproof" could, but does not necessarily mean primarily hip hop and angst from the past. they released "we are bulletproof: the eternal" on mots:7 and it's not angsty at all melodically. it's quite a soft, mellow song which surprised everyone when it dropped, but it tells me that the new album name just means, this is us. they can still drop anything on us. scary hours.
Since y'all talked about vocals and how you liked how they did it. I suggest that y'all watch/ react to Your Eyes Tell live their vocal ability really shows on that track it is also in Japanese and it's an OST for a film that Jungkook wrote himself ( the song not the film😅). So I think y'all should see that if you haven't. I would love to see y'all react to it and see y'all's opinion on it.☺️
Appreciate the in depth discussions as always. Personally, I don't think BTS need to do anything to appeal more to the Western market. Nor should they. The whole last 2 years of their career was totally unexpected to them. They never would have released 'BE' or their 3 English singles had it not been for covid. The English singles were a departure for them, and they probably weren't all comfortable with it. However, they absolutely reaped rewards from those songs. Now I think they are in a position where, they have people's attention more than ever. They can do *whatever* they want. I think the new album will be them at their peak. I suspect there will be at least 1 English single. But, maybe it will be be edgier? I definitely have high expectations for the album though, and I'm prepared to be amazed!
Ya'll feeling like the concert was short. Lol. I work as an usher at a local venue for pocket change; Last fri I worked, and the main act performed for 55mins. People were like do you know if shows are usually this short? BTS is now the meter I am going to judge all future concerts on.
Idk if you got the news but snoop dogg is collaborating with bts, rm confirmed it in a live. It will probably be a part of the upcoming album, so that probably tells us a little bit of the direction they’re going in.
RM didn't seem very enthusiastic about it. Is it just me ? He kinda brushed it off lol. So I'm wondering if it's a collab with only some of the members or the full group
As always, loved your discussion. Love to hear your take on the subject of music. I've lived all over the world, and I know that some of the artists you were mentioning as world-renowned are really not very well known "out there". Even in Britain, not all US acts get a lot of recognition. I feel like BTS has reached a stage where they can truly go any place and fill up a stadium, which is about as high as you can get. I would love for them to go back to their roots, producing more stuff in Korean, their native tongue. The songs they write themselves have always touched me the most. By now, though, I've come to trust their musical instincts and am willing to follow them wherever they lead. As a final note, having ARMY is much better than having some nebulous general public knowing about you. Butts in seats and money spent will give you longevity. The general public doesn't pay the bills. Acts that cultivate a loyal fanbase continue to tour and put out music. Acts that reach the general public fade away when said public loses interest.
@@abiisaqib7816 I don't think so either. Maybe I'm projecting, but I feel most comfortable in my mother tongue and I feel that they write lyrics more freely in Korean.
Gerrick (sorry of I'm spelling your name incorrectly) - thanks for assuring ARMY that they shouldn't feel ashamed of having a fake ARMY Bomb. That was sweet, man. Also, never leave a BTS concert until the house lights go up. 😁
everytime i hear this song v’s sad face always popped up in my head v said 2018 was the lowest point of his life the burnout,i cannot imagine how members get through it the almost disbandment of this group 😢this song is a masterpiece that v created…💜
About the new album... If I remember correctly they already said is gonna be more rap than in the last ones they have done. And is alrdy out how Snoop Dog made a song with them. Also, I believe they gonna bring back the B.U cuz they're hinting at it in the backgroud. Example: The background in the Grammy performance. Anyways, ty for the reaction. 😊
guys we are bulletproof coming isn't a big deal because we are bulletproof is solid song but there is also a calmer song *we are bulletproof* just simply tell sthat they are coming back and also there 10 years celebration too so that's why there journey is there We are bulletproof doesn't mean they r dissing , we are bulletproof songs are always relate to bts and will be Note : bulletproof is there because that's what there name means *BULLETPROOF BOYS SCOUTS* *BANGTAN SONEYEONDAN* And about hip hop tracks well *for past 3 years BTS members are saying that they will have more hip hop tracks in future specially for album which gonna be released*
You have no idea how much I was waiting for this 🥺 I don't know whether to finish this then go to patreon or the other way around but since I am here I'll just finish this video first lol. Glad you guys are back 💜
1st - love this song glad you reacted to it. 2nd - looking forward to you concert vlogs. I attended the virtual concert Day 4 and it was a blast. 3rd - While they may not have dominated the American market, BTS has made a huge impact. The US is famous for saying "everyone is welcome" but there's conditions and we have to put people in buckets. Latin Grammys - perfect example. 4th - I'm from Houston, TX (HTown). Texas has a large kpop following. Is it the majority of the state, no, but we'd sell out a stadium💜💜. As always, enjoy y'alls spirited convo.
One music genre or niche that BTS has not done much of, or rarely, is rock & metal music. There have been some BTS youtube reactions by metal/rock channels over the years, but it seems like few & far between. I could be wrong, my memory is hazy. But one thing though that I have heard over the same years is that if BTS might do some more rock & metal elements in their music, the metal/rock community, both musicians & fans, will have their ears perk up. Imagine that, the fans of that genre of music is still a big amount today, even though some have been saying that rock & metal music is a dying art. But if BTS will do a little bit more of that genre, they could garner more fans from that community. I mean they probably have fans from that sector already, just not enough to make a bigger ARMY. I can understand that BTS is more hip-hop centric, but they can always do some form of music fusion of hiphop & rock, such as in the style of rap-rock. Sure, they may have done a few tracks like that, but just rarely. One notable track that they have done metal is with a collab by the "Father of KPop", that being the famous Korean artist Seo Taiji. Without Taiji, the KPop industry would not have begun & exist today. There would be no BTS, no Blackpink, no Jessi or Dreamcatcher, TXT or 1Tyme or HOT, no BigHit, YG, SM, etc etc. Seo Taiji is first & foremost a rock/metal musician, yet he ushered in KPop with hiphop. That is the irony. Think about that. KPop was started by a metal musician, yet the whole of KPop is hiphop & R&B, simply because Taiji is an experimenter & formed a hiphop group, when it was needed. Thus, it was fate. Anyway, if you want Korean rock, then you go into K-Rock. I don't know if you watched Seo Taiji's Time Traveler 25 concert from 2017. It features BTS in some of their performances. If you can, please react to Taiji x BTS Live collab song "Classroom Idea", which is very metal. There are some video snippets of it from the concert. If you want, you can also react to the whole concert, which is 2 1/2 hours long. Or watch on your own time. Taiji's music is diverse. He can go hard one song & then very mellow the next. The only issue with Taiji's videos is there are no English subtitles. Taiji has also passed the virtual torch directly to BTS, not just because of the latter's success, but because of their social commentary in their songs, simply because it was Taiji who started that 3 decades ago, by talking about the issues & problems in SK back when it was censored & hush-hush. Perhaps you can also add Seo Taiji to your reactions. You can also react to his songs such as "Feel the Soul" MV, "Internet War" MV, "Come Back Home" original & BTS-cover, etc. Any questions, just let me know.
Great reaction guys I loved it so much and I loved yall honest opinion about everything it's great keep the content going 🙏😊💜 oo and Zac got the best bias him and Mary Jane Uzumaki Hobi is my bias as well
They're probably not going to go into a more "healing" direction next, because that's part of their brand, but they did that with BE and the English singles... And BTS always switches things up between eras. BE/Dynamite/Butter era is over, they are going to pick a different sound now. So, not a chill/sentimental or a super cheerful/party sound... However, whether the next album is going to be "hiphop driven" or more agressive, that's an entirely different discussion. In terms of sound, they are probably going to keep including a wide variety of music genres in the next project (specially with the solo/unit songs), because this has allowed the members to express their different music tastes and individuality, and they seem to appreciate that. The big question is what's the theme/concept of the album, since each album has a key word. Most likely, the title track name is going to be the biggest hint of THAT/the theme of the entire album. In relation to "bulletproof", that doesn't say much, I mean... We Are Bulletproof pt 2 and We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal both are songs with that word, and one is agressive, while the other is sentimental... So, yeah, they could do anything. Something that may be an indicator is this: BTS tend to be mindful of the music trends that are growing, so they will probably incorporate whatever style is starting to become more mainstream in the near future... And what someone said about them not wanting to do more angry diss-tracks is true, also true they're doing more swagy/satirical diss-tracks... But it's also true that anger is not the only agressive emotion. What else? I do think the next album is gonna be more narrative driven, like, narrating personal stories rather than super universal themes. That's my only guess.
Didn't map of the soul 7 album become one of the fastest selling albums in US. I think they sell very well. Its the way tv and radio and other companies game the chart/industry. I believe they have a plan and you just watch the people who will eat of them
Btw when Bangtan started their new album, a known hip-hop writer (don't ask me for his name) said he would be working with them. The next album is going to blow our minds. I think they are going to go wild on everything and still bring a message of hope. Armys crying for Jimin's part in blood sweat and tears is everything. We all want Jimin to do betaneumo and then that drop. They are bulletproof boy scouts.
This was originally composed and written in English by Taehyung for his mixtape, .Taehyung said he wrote this song as a way to cope when he was feeling the most low. He expresses more about it in his Weverse magazine interview. - "뷔 “저희와 아미, 우리가 또다시 웃었으면 좋겠어요” It was no secret that Taehyung was going through a difficult time when this came out. He said “I experienced a lot of burnout & know it really well. Previously, I felt burnout as it is and it was mentally difficult. Lately I have felt like I’ve experienced growth & write songs about how I feel. In the past I had a hard time… but when I write a song about the feeling of burnout, I feel a sense of accomplishment. When a song is completed, it’s a thrilling feeling. It feels like I’m overcoming it using this.” 💜
That’s so decent 🙏🏽💜💜
"You'll like BTS music if you listen without prejudice." -Suga.
I love how ya'll have grown in this journey.
This song is one of my favorites from the BE album, right below Dis-ease. V stole the stage for me on this. Can't believe Blue and Grey was supposed to be a solo song for him only. Thank you for reacting to this. Love y'all ❤
🔥🔥🔥
The last lines ' now I fall asleep at dawn, good night' hits hard. One- it's so relatable. My damn anxiety which keeps me up gives me more anxiety 😂. Two - V said he was suffering from burn out. Which is where this song stems from. I remember he would stay up sometimes till 4 in the morning talking to ARMYs on weverse and a making a mess for weverse moderators (Telling them to add some new features for him. I'm pretty sure he gave away an album at one point and just said weverse staff must handle it lol ).
Also someone get Kurtis to react to Joons mixtape mono. I need a breakdown 😭.
A muster is a gathering of military troops. The BTS fan meet/concert is called a muster because it's a gathering of ARMY. Lol I hope this makes sense.
💜💜💜
Taetae is a real genius to write such an amazing masterpiece.
And it's just one of his greatest songs which engulfed whole universe in it's warm.
Taetae's deep heavenly voice is just unbeatable and addicting to ears 💜🐯🐻✌
💜💜💜
So glad y'all went. The last set, when they came back in PTD shirts, that's the encore set. They do that for every concert. I know the concert seems short but it's actually almost 3 hours long and they only get a total of under a half hour for costume changes and preps for the next set. Their concerts are bar none, the best all around ... not just the performance, but the atmosphere and the entire vibe of everyone there being inclusive and so giving and sweet. Me and my 13 year old daughter went to two concerts in LA and I couldn't make it to Vegas but I sent my daughter with my girlfriend to Vegas. I wasn't worried at all because I know the vibe is so welcoming and safe and everyone takes care of one another. That's the beauty of ARMY. So glad you guys could go. Love watching y'all.
Thank you
"some dashing, swagged-out black guys... And Kurt" you just made me spit-take my biscuits!
😂😂😂
I get how Curtis felt...I am not the type of jumping, sing or scream due in my case of my shy personality but with ARMY you don't feel judge or that someone can make fun of you and just feel free and jump and sing loud if you want...the guys love that, they feed from ARMYS energy and viceversa!
"Blue & Grey" was written and produced by Taehyung and its success was of such magnitude that it debuted at number 13 on the Hot 100 chart and broke the record for best-selling downloads worldwide, becoming BTS's most commercially successful secondary song; undoubtedly a masterpiece made by a master musician 💚
💜💜💜
Blue and Grey holds a lot of emotional feelings for me, when I first got into BTS, this was one of the first songs that I listened to by them. I listened to this when I was going through a hard time mentally and emotionally and I cried so much listen he to it, because I related to it so much. Great reaction
Thank you so much and I’m glad the song is that impactful for you 💜
They usually have encores in their concerts with solo and group performances. This concert was different but also great. I think they'll bring them back if they go on world tour after their comeback
Figured as much
Idol was the last song of the concert - so all the songs afterwards are considered encore 💜
Oh man, my favourite part is Jhope; even the author of Gray Rhino, which inspired Jhope's lyrics, praised him for his powerful verse.
J Hhhooppppeeeee
You guys were right about Jhope, he's energy doubled up in live performances, and he's so engaging to audience while dancing and vibing effortlessly, J-Hope is so cool. Ofcourse all the members too especially when they're goofing around randomly on stage.
1) The 7 songs after they said the concert was ending was the encore. 2) it was 2 + hours long so not sure how much longer you would expect a concert to be 3) Curtis’ breakdown was on point…again! Love to hear his response always 4) Repeat on PTD…that was a funny complaint 5) we all want BST but they had a lot of other bangers.
1- I keep saying that lol
2- when you’re there that time flys
3- 💯
4- thank you
5- they have 100000 bangers; that don’t take away from the fact that’s one of our fav songs and we wanted to see the whole track..
Those are just are thoughts and opinions 💜
@@REDEMPTION46 Forgot to add to the previous post…. Always love you guys’ reactions. Thank you 💜
THANK YOU LO...... Why should the American market be the end all be all. Hybe took over that Big Machine country thing.... doesn't mean BTS is thinking of going country. They could be trying to debut artists here in the US? Not every move Hybe makes has to be with BTS in mind. BTS can sell out stadiums in so many different countries, not only their home country, but not every American artist can sell out stadiums outside of the US. That's the difference.
💜💜💜
one thing about this permission to dance concert series is that they purposefully decided to do only ot7 songs. at all of their past tours, they always had solo song spots for all of the other members to rest, however for this tour, they decided to do a greatest hits medley type of show, and all ot7, because they haven't toured in 2 years so they decided to go all out. since none of them had any rest breaks except for the vcrs, they definitely had to cut down on some of the dancing and on some songs as a whole, the set being tiring as it is.
Hopefully we get a world tour
@@REDEMPTION46 we will👀
Yes coz PTD era has ended so a new world tour is coming soon.
When this album came out it was 6am my time and I cried so much listening to this song not even knowing each lyrics meaning but I still until this day cry so much, few months ago I lost my father and he was someone so special to me so so much he was my best friend and my hero loosing him hit me so hard I couldn’t do anything anymore it felt life has stopped from working but BTS really helped me go through it and this song always remind me of him I don’t know why but it does and it makes cry but it’s like the cry that relive you from pain that when the song end you gonna stop those tears and smile and feel much better after letting it all out
Thank you for sharing your experience 💜
I think Curt hit the nail on the head with his analysis of Blue & Grey, always interesting to hear his opinion. Really dope y'all managed to see them in Vegas btw 💜
the fact tae called all men for the first time during your concerts is a sign lol like i don’t recall them ever doing that before 😂
We was so hype lol
Lol babe😭...I'm random people in Africa. I been ARMY since 2014, my country loves them. But just to note on their reach and performance ability. My 60+ year old dad bought that damn BTS Samsung Galaxy phone for himself and didn't tell me (I have it now). He also saw his two favourite artists Michael Jackson and Tina Turner live in concert back in the day. He watches the live stream BTS concert with me and BTS easily made his top three performers. I guess my point is good music is gonna reach people no matter what.
Also to African ARMY- UMG Africa said they are looking into selling BTS albums as of June. If you want details on your country email their helpdesk.
Which country in Africa if you don’t mind me asking? I’m from 🇭🇹
@@Jing_Ling_Uncles hi Armi...I'm from South Africa 🇿🇦👋
Me too
I’m Ctfu… Hi Africa 🥰💜
Atl thank you for speaking up cause it be like we don’t exist sometimes.
When a member is singing, he's usually the one that is shown on the screen. But while he's being shown, all the six other members are also vibing, and mostly interacting with fans, going close to them and smiling at them and throwing water at them lmao, it's just that it's not seen on the screen by people who are far from the stage lol.
I love how BTS is so consistent in putting out amazing music, performances, mvs, lyrics etc. that we have so much confidence in, that whatever they will do there gonna bring it and kill it. Who else would have so much confidence in to be sure that the music will be great?
There's one aspect that I'm thinking about when it comes to BTS being recognized worldwide by everyone (they're already worldwide, but as you said becoming a name EVERYONE knows). I think it comes down to media. BTS is famously not trying to play by the industry "rules" - well in some aspects they are, but in a lot of ways they're bringing about a paradigm shift in the music industry. We already know music outlets and magazines and media try to down play or twist the narrative and the importance of BTS and the impact they're having. If any western acts where setting the records BTS are it would be all over the media, but they're constantly left out. E.g. when Adele set a record for most streamed song in 24 hours on yt it was everywhere in Danish news, but when BTS set that same record (with a much higher margin to the previous record holder) prior to Adele there was dead silence. This is just one tiny example out of heaps. It's difficult to say how big BTS is or could be, when there's not an even playing field. So BTS is and has been growing this big from nothing to where they are now despite everything. They were and they still are fighting against a lot, and they probably will for a long time to come. I think that's a small part of why I really wish to see them succeed as well (apart from their incredible music, the people they are and their values etc.) ... people trying to bring about fair represenation, give respect and money to the artists, don't let a few rich men dictate who get's to be played when and where, but let people have a say. And honoring the craft of music in all areas too - I've never known as much about music production, lyricism, sound mixing etc. etc. before BTS - they make me curious and give us a glimps of the proces and what it takes. Btw. have you ever seen the interview of Ken Lewis (he does a lot, but the focus here is on mixing and producing music) by another legend Pensando interviewing him. Ken Lewis did a lot of mixing for the BTS tracks - you might find it interesting? Link: ua-cam.com/video/c6RJEqJmGPk/v-deo.html
Sorry about the long rant. These are just a few thoughts that I hadn't really sorted out.
agree Nick....I also love how Jin and Jk's voice melt together, it was my favorite as well but also the VMin did it great, "Blue &Grey" is not on my top5 but is on my top20 favorite BTS songs, I understand that may not be for everybody but his lyrics are top notch and the message that Taehyung try to deliver was understandable through this song...if you pay enough attention you'll feel the pain and sadness on it, thank you for the reaction guys!
I agree with the ending encore of permission to dance. They usually do that to distract army from feeling down when they leave. they would choose one song and have it play for a while so post-concert depression doesn't hit us quickly hahahahaha
It's interesting that Suga raps fast on a song like this but it somehow fits smoothly.
Right lol
Thanks for the YT and Patreon drops! And listening to everyone talk about the concert was beautiful. I actually just watched your first BTS reaction again and man, you guys have come so far in your journey! 💜
Thanks Ali.. We came a long way 💜
I'm so happy to hear you had an incredible time at the concerts. Just BTW: There was an encore. Idol was the last song - so after that you got about 3-4 songs + the endments. This concert might have been just slightly shorter than normal, but that's because it was all 7 songs playing throughout and most with tough choreo, so for them to be able to breathe and last all 4 concerts that had to do it like that :-)
Figured that.. they definitely said the show was over and did like 8 more songs lol
@@REDEMPTION46 Knowing how they never want to leave the stage, they probably prefer 2,5 almost 3 hour concert like they usually do. I'm hoping and thinking we'll get solos on the upcoming album, so their next tour would likely be longer.
Thank you for all your reactions, time and effort. Have you ever watched one of their previous concerts from start to finish? Like the last concert (day three) of the encore Wings Final concert in Seoul, or LYSY in Brazil, or the 2016 Live KYN Kayounenka on Stage: epilogue in Japan? You'll LOOOOOVE THEM!
Oh I wanted to let y'all know in case you don't know but RM mentioned that this set list was pretty difficult because it was OT7 throughout. Usually they get to breathe during solo performances.
My favorite song on BE. I know it was supposed to be a solo on Vs up coming mixtape but I'm so glad they made it a group song🎵 🔥🥰💜
🔥🔥💜💜
Hey y’all Texas army here! I was also at D4 so i appreciate y’all’s perspective and conversation regarding their comeback! First off I personally didn’t expect them to do Blue and Grey live and when I heard their live vocals I was in shock and then my brain realized it’s live and i teared up cause damn they’re amazing. I also think they’re definitely going to go back to their roots just not sure what spin they’ll take yet cause they always surprise and do something new and creative but I think they definitely want to show off and kind of remind everyone where they came from. I think with their recent English tracks newer fans or new people just discovering them may think of them as pop artists but we need to remember their hip hop roots and rappers not to be taken lightly. RM definitely has stuff to say but i think he’s been holding back in light of keeping army in a positive mindset and trying to keep their image positive but some of the little things he’s been saying here and there leave me to believe that he wants to remind people who they truly are and that they’re not naive to the reality around them. I definitely agree with the point that you can’t have an album or comeback called “We are Bulletproof” and then give us themes and tracks that don’t emphasize that idea. Thanks for this video and happy y’all got to experience the concert. I can definitely say no one does it like BTS and it’s definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had in my life thus far! 💜
aw Curt! i loved hearing your thoughts, so happy you felt all the emotions we usually feel when we see bts in concert 💜 im glad you all had a great time ! I understand what Lo means of expecting "I need U" because they did perform that song for the LA Dates, also... about the Encore, yes the Vegas shows were cut short, not sure why. For LA we got maybe 2-4 more songs, i remember they sang Spring Day, Young Forever and We are Bulletproof; The Enternal. They also had Baepsae, but like i said i dont know why they cut those off for the Vegas shows... maybe they will explain in the future.
Glad you guys had a great time in Vegas. Wow I love the TEACHER's breakdown as always. SO FARAWAY is another amazing healing song by Suga with Jinkook's beautiful harmonies. The original version ft. Suran is also beautiful.
Love Blue & Grey, Taehyung really captured that feeling that we’ve all felt and some of us have felt much more intensely over the past two years. It’s a beautiful song, beautifully performed live. I’ve now been to both the LA and LV concerts and both experiences were insane and the best concert experiences I’ve ever had. Part of it is definitely Army. They are an amazing fan base and it shows so much at these concerts. Helpful, patient (in the face of some pretty messed up stuff at Sofi), full of enthusiasm and happiness, and giving the energy back to BTS to get them hyped up as well. I think the LV one was better than Sofi because it came after the Seoul one that was so difficult for BTS without the audience able to cheer like they had hoped. Regardless, they were both amazing and I will do everything I can to go to another one as soon as possible.
There's a theory that is them reimagining No More Dream to Dream. Watch the end of On MV.
You have to take into account that they are asians and foreigners. The music industry will never let them dominate without resistance. They've faced resistance since they debuted in America in 2017.
Wowwww
Suga helped Tae with the lyrics. I heard that Namjoon also wrote lyrics for it but he said his was rejected and Suga’s lyrics were accepted. I feel that was probably was because he has struggled more with anxiety and depression and could probably relate more to what Tae was expressing. Such a beautiful song as all Tae’s are.
I am so happy that you guys had this experience with us. ARMY comes out in full force everytime. My friend travelled from the Philippines just to watch them. She was only here for that. ARMY is a different breed. You know BTS stans their ARMY as well. When you are around each other breathing the same air you feel like you have been transported somewhere. That is why PCD (Post Concert Depression) is a real thing for us ARMYs. But since you guys stayed for the comeback announcement, I bet BTS was laughing and cheering behind the stage too. We need that cypher 5.
Thank you for your reviews and for loving Bangtan.
I wanna go visit the Philippines lol.. and yesssss I need a cypher 5
This song was written by V and he said that his favorite part is the one sung by Jin, he loved Jin’s voice in the song. All of them are wonderful 🙌👏😍
💜💜💜
Idk know if u knew but Jimin’s first ost for the kdrama our blues is dropping on the 24th at 11 pm kst it’s gonna be a duet with Ha Sungwoon, he is a soloist also a former member of wanna one and they are like besties, Jimin said on Vlive that this is a beginning for him and he wants to start trying new things, also media said it’s going to be an emotional ost so I’m really excited
I’m BACK!! Glad you fellas enjoyed your Vegas stay and the concerts! Makes me more determined for their next anticipated comeback and tour!! I’m feenin’ for some new music from them. Hobi…Hobi is a PERFORMER 💯… he wrecks you every concert!! Love that Zack found his bias 😆 💜💜💜
Kim Taehyung having whole diary where he wrote his emotions and most of his songs it's from them.
Blue and Grey was also from his diary, it's an emotion of tae when he's having most hardest time in his life , he said " it was lowest point of his life " his depression time.
He share with fans this song because covid time when tae interact with fans find out many of fans also suffering from depression so he said he will share with us lots of comfort songs.
Ya know Jin my biassssss so when that Jinkook note hit when BE dropped I was screaming, crying, throwing up, while sliding down the wall! 😂 Nick really the goat like look how deep Lo is! My boy knows about the Musters 😭
Love that everyone enjoyed ya time & the boys! 💜
Ok you see us? Lol
I love your discussion regarding the concert. I can see how Jhope takes over your bais position when you see him on stage because lots of army do say he is different live even when they have biases they come out of there jhoped lol.
As for the album Yoongi did say there will be a hip-hop albam coming but maybe they would change idk. As for the we are bulletproof part is that that's their name bangtan they hated their name in the beginning so now they are embracing it by putting it as the album name.
Also there are 3 we are bulletproof songs if you heard the one on MOTS7 it's more of a balad than rap so I don't really now what it will be like but one thing for sure BTS will always have atleast one help song and one criticism song whether its for haters and/or government in every album constantly usually the other songs follow one of these two directions.
If you went to their consert in wings era you could have gotten a full performance for bst if you went to their consert in "most beautiful moment in life" era u could have gotten a full run, save me, I need you performance since u went to their BE era concert you got everything BE related BTS concerts r kinda album wise so all the other songs like bst, fire, bapsae r kinda extra cause they r famous they do every old famous album song+ new album songs in each tour so that's why all the old songs r cut short to give new songs more time your lucky you got even half of bst in the future they might shorten the time for these songs even more or not include them at all I hope not though btw glad you enjoyed the concert
I’m pissed we missed some eras lol
@@REDEMPTION46 Me too 😭
Loved your reaction and discussion💜Kurt on point as usual💜, borahae to you all!💜
💜💜💜
ok so this is what i think for my guess as to what the album might sound like: i think it'll be hiphop heavy...they'll probably fuse it w/ other genres, but the majority i think will be hiphop. I'm saying this bc of the clues we've gotten. Yoongi saying to look forward to more hiphop soon, TM88 posting on twt in 2021 saying he's working on some songs for them, the snoop collab...also the "we are bulletproof" & joon talking abt going back to their roots. BUT i also think there might be some rock in there, and like i said they'll def do fusion w/ other genres too...like obviously they genre hop so yeah, i think it'll be a masterpiece honestly. i'm so excited! but thank you for the reaction and convos, glad u all had a good time :)
BTS MUSTER is actually BTS ANNIVERSARY
It's on BTS debut anniversary concert that concert gives surprising performances and songs
💜💜💜
@@REDEMPTION46 guys we are bulletproof coming isn't a big deal because we are bulletproof is solid song but there is also a calmer song
*we are bulletproof* just simply tell sthat they are coming back and also there 10 years celebration too so that's why there journey is there
We are bulletproof doesn't mean they r dissing , we are bulletproof songs are always relate to bts and will be
Note : bulletproof is there because that's what there name means *BULLETPROOF BOYS SCOUTS* *BANGTAN SONEYEONDAN*
And about hip hop tracks well *for past 3 years BTS members are saying that they will have more hip hop tracks in future specially for album which gonna be released*
There is no need for BTS, to cater to the American market. They are worldwide global superstars with a loyal fandom Army. BTS, became the only act to top IFPI's Global Recording Artist of the Year, ranking for 2, consecutive years 2020 & 2021. They beat out artist like Taylor Swift, Adele, Drake etc... etc...
Me too..after BTS live performance.. J-hopeeeeeeeeeeeeeee auto become my Ultimate bias.. J-hope born to be on stage... Loves BTS 💜
That’s my guy lol
This song came out during the pandemic era and is part of the BE album. It will always be one of my comfort songs of that time. I also hear it time and time again whenever I feel myself the most down or feel like giving up. I also had the chance to see them during the last show in Vegas. (My city) The experience felt like family (army) getting together to have the best time of our lives! It didn't even feel like just a concert, even with like more than 200,000 people filling up the stadium. The energy felt in that stadium was so extravagant that I can still feel it in my spirit! So glad ya'll got the same chance to see them too! I hope we get to attend more in the future
This song made me cry the first time I heard it. Without even looking at the lyrics and only listening to them alone, the line "I just wanna be happier" really hit home for me. Mainly because this came out in 2020 and there was so much going on with the pandemic, and my grandmother was bedbound when the album came out. She made it a year before she passed away and now this song just comforts me whenever I feel sad. Their music has always made me feel things, but something about this album was the perfect timing. It really brought me out of my slump. 💜💜
This song seems to be a heart jerker for most people
And thanks for sharing all that personal info 💜
THANK YOU FOR THIS ONE HOUR ! it was very interesting having all of you guys opinion on the concert and everything so thank you for your hard work !! (I'm already subscribed to your Patreon ahah)
Thanks for the love and support 💜
Jimin always catches me with his heavenly soft cotton candy vocals 💜
Jimin and jungkook were interacting with the crowd closely. Like jimin was right next to the security guard in front of the audience dancing with them. So that's y it probably seemed like they weren't playing with the crowd cuz they weren't on screen as much because of it
Yea Jimin was all over the place honestly it just wasn't on the big screen
Yeah there's so many fancams of Jungkook interacting with Armys and such.
As someone who has depression, this song I can relate so much also I really hope Taehyung releases the solo version of it that was going to be on his wonderful mixtape, also Agree about the Jimin comment, as someone who has a horrible past, Jimin or Minnie is like an Angel to me so his voice or anything of his helps, but yeah Jimin has a calming voice also I am glad to see another Vmin harmonize again its so beautiful their voices mixed together
🙏🏽💜💜
Blue & Grey always gets me in tears. I could never avoid it no matter how hard I try.
I'm happy you guys got to see them live. I can sense that you had a great time. I've been army since 2014 and never had the chance. I came close in 2020, had tickets and all but ... I guess it's not meant to be for me and just love them from afar.
It’s great 🔥🔥
From all the clips I've seen of the concert I'm so amazed especially since they were recovering from Covid not to long before the shows.
I want to hear all about your experience at the concert. Watching your guys journey through to BTS has been really amazing. It's so great to see. It's exactly what I want to express to everyone who doubts about BTS that is unexplainable unless you experience it and give it a chance. ARMY and BTS and everything that means. *sigh* I'm really happy for you all.
Thank you so much
My fav song from the BE album 💜
🔥🔥🔥
Comeback: We been getting hints everywhere but it wasn’t until recently when ARMYs started noticing it (it’s even on the “Permission To Dance”-teaser!! Look at title of the cover n when the newspaper was dated. The comeback date, “volume” is 6 letters.) There is also talks about they’ll take a walk down memory lane (9 doors on each side of the BTS comeback logo, 9 years since debut) and that this comeback will give us an even more intimate access (musically, lyrically) to BTS “We Are Bulletproof” = “We Are Bangtan” and so forth.
Concert: Normally - they’d get breaks in-between performances thanks to the other famous subunit/solo songs that’d be performed. This one, because PTD was their first time performing to ARMYs after such a long time, they wanted to be on stage, together, w ARMYs, as much as possible.
I’m so happy you got to go to PTD LV n that ARMYs were nice to you 💜
You should listen to Suga's mixtape D-2. Specially the song "People" to really understand his word play. He tends to reference things he's Said before in his new tracks and kind of connects his art like that.
They have already, its on their patreon
Right after be came out when bts were promoting, suga did mention that a few hip hop based songs are going to come, so hopefully the album incorporates those.
Btw muster is only in Korea and Japan exclusively there is a rumor that they will hold 5 days of muster in Korea just 3 days after their comeback
Keep in mind that We Are Bulletproof is the same as We are Bangtan..... Could be a "this is us" type thing.
True
Blue and Grey by V.. such a beautiful song! Nice reaction guys.
Thanks 🔥🔥
loved your talk about the album. I agree with the fact that they are great now. I hope they get to do whatever they want. Screw the American market and what they think lol. If the guys want more over here I want them to achieve it, but as an ARMY I don't care what direction they go.
this is a very emotional song when I listen to this it always makes me cry and the falsetto gives me chills,I love this song 💜💜💜
Don’t cry too much today 😩💜
@@REDEMPTION46 😩💜
I think there´s a reason for the rapline to have all of those solo projets - the mixtapes - for me they will tackle all of the serious themes and personal topics on them. Now, thinking about the themes of the new album anything can happen.
hobi out there referencing psychology books, it's not random word choices lol 😉
This is one of those songs you just wanna listen to on a bad day.. I've read on armytwt that if you try to listen to the beat more closely it kinda sounds like a heart beating and then them mentioning it in the lyrics.
I get that.. 💜💜
And if your main complaint is that it wasn't long enough or you didn't get to see/hear enough BTS...I think that confirms they took care of business! 💜 And I LOVE that ARMY welcomed you guys! Most of us truly appreciate male representation.
Nice 💜💜
Lo’s ‘I’ve got to go to work in 3 hours, I’m not good’ - oh yes, I felt that! Hope he got through the next day ok!!
the show is like 2.5, 3 hours long though, they have to rest hahah. and there is an encore, there's a break with a big vcr and then they come back with changed outfits and do like 3, 4 more songs, that's the encore. glad you guys had fun :)
I think it felt short to them because they aren't used to being so involved in something that time just blinks by. And then post concert depression hit some of them hard. LOL New experiences for the baby ARMYs. 💜
It sounds like a lot of time but when you’re there of goes by fast as hell.. plus we miss them and have post concert depression lol
@@REDEMPTION46 understandable. it's an experience alright!!
finally got around to watching the rest of the video, i always love your discussions so i want to listen well. imo, "we are bulletproof" could, but does not necessarily mean primarily hip hop and angst from the past. they released "we are bulletproof: the eternal" on mots:7 and it's not angsty at all melodically. it's quite a soft, mellow song which surprised everyone when it dropped, but it tells me that the new album name just means, this is us. they can still drop anything on us. scary hours.
I haven’t even finished yet but Nicklo y’all are crackheads 😂 everyone looked so serious and there’s the two of you giggling over Vmin 😭😂
😂😂😂 we was too hype
Since y'all talked about vocals and how you liked how they did it. I suggest that y'all watch/ react to Your Eyes Tell live their vocal ability really shows on that track it is also in Japanese and it's an OST for a film that Jungkook wrote himself ( the song not the film😅). So I think y'all should see that if you haven't. I would love to see y'all react to it and see y'all's opinion on it.☺️
"Where is my angel"
"I am right here"
I was sad but this made me laugh so hard💃💃
Appreciate the in depth discussions as always. Personally, I don't think BTS need to do anything to appeal more to the Western market. Nor should they. The whole last 2 years of their career was totally unexpected to them. They never would have released 'BE' or their 3 English singles had it not been for covid. The English singles were a departure for them, and they probably weren't all comfortable with it. However, they absolutely reaped rewards from those songs. Now I think they are in a position where, they have people's attention more than ever. They can do *whatever* they want. I think the new album will be them at their peak. I suspect there will be at least 1 English single. But, maybe it will be be edgier? I definitely have high expectations for the album though, and I'm prepared to be amazed!
This is one of the most beautiful songs for me....I fall asleep at night to this quite often.
I really enjoy u talking and digging into things like these
Am happy just sseing u passionate about our tannies
Thank you
Jimin, jimin, jimin 😭😭😭😭
Jimin 🥰
@@REDEMPTION46 😂😂😂trop cute 🥰🐣🇨🇵 Nick n'oublie pas l'ost de jimin et son copain c'est demain le 24 a 11h 🤩
I swear i'm living to ur guys shouted ' j-hopeeeeeee ' in every single videos . I love j-hope's fanboy 🔥
Ya'll feeling like the concert was short. Lol. I work as an usher at a local venue for pocket change; Last fri I worked, and the main act performed for 55mins. People were like do you know if shows are usually this short? BTS is now the meter I am going to judge all future concerts on.
I love how focused Curtis on the lyrics 💜💜💜
Idk if you got the news but snoop dogg is collaborating with bts, rm confirmed it in a live. It will probably be a part of the upcoming album, so that probably tells us a little bit of the direction they’re going in.
RM didn't seem very enthusiastic about it. Is it just me ? He kinda brushed it off lol.
So I'm wondering if it's a collab with only some of the members or the full group
🔥🔥🔥
As always, loved your discussion. Love to hear your take on the subject of music.
I've lived all over the world, and I know that some of the artists you were mentioning as world-renowned are really not very well known "out there". Even in Britain, not all US acts get a lot of recognition. I feel like BTS has reached a stage where they can truly go any place and fill up a stadium, which is about as high as you can get.
I would love for them to go back to their roots, producing more stuff in Korean, their native tongue. The songs they write themselves have always touched me the most. By now, though, I've come to trust their musical instincts and am willing to follow them wherever they lead.
As a final note, having ARMY is much better than having some nebulous general public knowing about you. Butts in seats and money spent will give you longevity. The general public doesn't pay the bills. Acts that cultivate a loyal fanbase continue to tour and put out music. Acts that reach the general public fade away when said public loses interest.
They actually are on their roots though...releasing three english songs isn't like they forgot about their roots or smth
@@abiisaqib7816 I don't think so either. Maybe I'm projecting, but I feel most comfortable in my mother tongue and I feel that they write lyrics more freely in Korean.
Gerrick (sorry of I'm spelling your name incorrectly) - thanks for assuring ARMY that they shouldn't feel ashamed of having a fake ARMY Bomb. That was sweet, man.
Also, never leave a BTS concert until the house lights go up. 😁
Lmao tell him
everytime i hear this song v’s sad face always popped up in my head v said 2018 was the lowest point of his life the burnout,i cannot imagine how members get through it the almost disbandment of this group 😢this song is a masterpiece that v created…💜
About the new album...
If I remember correctly they already said is gonna be more rap than in the last ones they have done. And is alrdy out how Snoop Dog made a song with them.
Also, I believe they gonna bring back the B.U cuz they're hinting at it in the backgroud. Example: The background in the Grammy performance.
Anyways, ty for the reaction. 😊
Who said that and when ? Can you please link me the source
That’s dope
guys we are bulletproof coming isn't a big deal because we are bulletproof is solid song but there is also a calmer song
*we are bulletproof* just simply tell sthat they are coming back and also there 10 years celebration too so that's why there journey is there
We are bulletproof doesn't mean they r dissing , we are bulletproof songs are always relate to bts and will be
Note : bulletproof is there because that's what there name means *BULLETPROOF BOYS SCOUTS* *BANGTAN SONEYEONDAN*
And about hip hop tracks well *for past 3 years BTS members are saying that they will have more hip hop tracks in future specially for album which gonna be released*
You have no idea how much I was waiting for this 🥺 I don't know whether to finish this then go to patreon or the other way around but since I am here I'll just finish this video first lol. Glad you guys are back 💜
Finish this 😂💜
1st - love this song glad you reacted to it. 2nd - looking forward to you concert vlogs. I attended the virtual concert Day 4 and it was a blast. 3rd - While they may not have dominated the American market, BTS has made a huge impact. The US is famous for saying "everyone is welcome" but there's conditions and we have to put people in buckets. Latin Grammys - perfect example. 4th - I'm from Houston, TX (HTown). Texas has a large kpop following. Is it the majority of the state, no, but we'd sell out a stadium💜💜. As always, enjoy y'alls spirited convo.
This song, as many others so closed to the emotional side, is part of our daily life. Love it 💜

One music genre or niche that BTS has not done much of, or rarely, is rock & metal music. There have been some BTS youtube reactions by metal/rock channels over the years, but it seems like few & far between. I could be wrong, my memory is hazy. But one thing though that I have heard over the same years is that if BTS might do some more rock & metal elements in their music, the metal/rock community, both musicians & fans, will have their ears perk up. Imagine that, the fans of that genre of music is still a big amount today, even though some have been saying that rock & metal music is a dying art. But if BTS will do a little bit more of that genre, they could garner more fans from that community. I mean they probably have fans from that sector already, just not enough to make a bigger ARMY. I can understand that BTS is more hip-hop centric, but they can always do some form of music fusion of hiphop & rock, such as in the style of rap-rock. Sure, they may have done a few tracks like that, but just rarely. One notable track that they have done metal is with a collab by the "Father of KPop", that being the famous Korean artist Seo Taiji. Without Taiji, the KPop industry would not have begun & exist today. There would be no BTS, no Blackpink, no Jessi or Dreamcatcher, TXT or 1Tyme or HOT, no BigHit, YG, SM, etc etc. Seo Taiji is first & foremost a rock/metal musician, yet he ushered in KPop with hiphop. That is the irony. Think about that. KPop was started by a metal musician, yet the whole of KPop is hiphop & R&B, simply because Taiji is an experimenter & formed a hiphop group, when it was needed. Thus, it was fate. Anyway, if you want Korean rock, then you go into K-Rock. I don't know if you watched Seo Taiji's Time Traveler 25 concert from 2017. It features BTS in some of their performances. If you can, please react to Taiji x BTS Live collab song "Classroom Idea", which is very metal. There are some video snippets of it from the concert. If you want, you can also react to the whole concert, which is 2 1/2 hours long. Or watch on your own time. Taiji's music is diverse. He can go hard one song & then very mellow the next. The only issue with Taiji's videos is there are no English subtitles. Taiji has also passed the virtual torch directly to BTS, not just because of the latter's success, but because of their social commentary in their songs, simply because it was Taiji who started that 3 decades ago, by talking about the issues & problems in SK back when it was censored & hush-hush. Perhaps you can also add Seo Taiji to your reactions. You can also react to his songs such as "Feel the Soul" MV, "Internet War" MV, "Come Back Home" original & BTS-cover, etc. Any questions, just let me know.
I would be thrilled if BTS did some rock/metal songs. I know there are some like Danger and Dionysus that are rock influenced but more would be great!
Great reaction guys I loved it so much and I loved yall honest opinion about everything it's great keep the content going 🙏😊💜 oo and Zac got the best bias him and Mary Jane Uzumaki Hobi is my bias as well
Very interesting discussion at the end, thanks for sharing your thoughts
Thank you
They're probably not going to go into a more "healing" direction next, because that's part of their brand, but they did that with BE and the English singles... And BTS always switches things up between eras. BE/Dynamite/Butter era is over, they are going to pick a different sound now. So, not a chill/sentimental or a super cheerful/party sound... However, whether the next album is going to be "hiphop driven" or more agressive, that's an entirely different discussion. In terms of sound, they are probably going to keep including a wide variety of music genres in the next project (specially with the solo/unit songs), because this has allowed the members to express their different music tastes and individuality, and they seem to appreciate that. The big question is what's the theme/concept of the album, since each album has a key word. Most likely, the title track name is going to be the biggest hint of THAT/the theme of the entire album. In relation to "bulletproof", that doesn't say much, I mean... We Are Bulletproof pt 2 and We Are Bulletproof: The Eternal both are songs with that word, and one is agressive, while the other is sentimental... So, yeah, they could do anything. Something that may be an indicator is this: BTS tend to be mindful of the music trends that are growing, so they will probably incorporate whatever style is starting to become more mainstream in the near future... And what someone said about them not wanting to do more angry diss-tracks is true, also true they're doing more swagy/satirical diss-tracks... But it's also true that anger is not the only agressive emotion. What else? I do think the next album is gonna be more narrative driven, like, narrating personal stories rather than super universal themes. That's my only guess.
Didn't map of the soul 7 album become one of the fastest selling albums in US. I think they sell very well. Its the way tv and radio and other companies game the chart/industry. I believe they have a plan and you just watch the people who will eat of them
1:17:41 ….. I’m 53, mwf, I went to 2 nites in LA, I went to 2 nites of Vegas! We are EVERYWHERE ☺️🙌🏻💜🍻. I LIVE IN TEXAS!!! 🎉👍🏻😘. Jus’sayin 😁
J-Hope is amazing! Please check out Just Dance live at Wembley Stadium or the stage mix, if you haven't already 🕺💜
Btw when Bangtan started their new album, a known hip-hop writer (don't ask me for his name) said he would be working with them. The next album is going to blow our minds. I think they are going to go wild on everything and still bring a message of hope.
Armys crying for Jimin's part in blood sweat and tears is everything. We all want Jimin to do betaneumo and then that drop.
They are bulletproof boy scouts.
