@@jeannie13 Its about the Australian wildfires that killed lots of wildlife and foliage and some people. It's also is about losing loved ones and “catching up with them.” There are quite a few layered meanings.
DLC = Dance Like Crazy ------------------------ FNF = fauna and flora Fauna = animals and Flora = plants This song was written while Felix and Chan were thinking about the massive wildfires that swept through Australia over the last few years. It's actually a sad song, but the tempo is upbeat.
11:40 worth noting, the video actually got wrong who sang this part. The video says Hyunjin, but in an interview on the radio Chan confirmed that the first whisper is Hyunjin (first chorus), and this last chorus is Lee Know
I can't wait for stray kids to go independent or to a different label so they can start swearing. I wanne hear a song from them where the clean version sounds like Lil Wayne's "Drop the world" clean version.
@@StayJJ0325 x actually XDH was song their version of a well known Stray Kids trick when they did that. This is something Stray Kids have been doing since BangChan created the group. Lol And I don't think any other company would support the members like JYPE, or for that matter, JYP himself has. They have complete creative control, this album marking the moment when they even stopped trying to please people and just plain started making the music they wanted to (in other words, they have always wrote, composed and produced their own music, but this is the first time that the only drive behind an album was what they wanted to make... As much as they love us fans, it would burn them out if they were always trying to please every one of us. So they stopped, and come on, this album is a hit! It's pleasing even more of us than ever! Lmao, and that move marked the group as being one of the most unbelievably independent and free Of company control groups to have ever been. The only things their company is now in control of, are the things they should be. Like schedules (they could do a little better there. That's for sure.) And of course providing their staff who do all the stuff they have to do. From managers, whom the kids love, and hair/makeup/style... who obviously love the kids too!) Point is, they not only have creative control, and not only are they themselves the MAIN/PRIMARY minds behind EVERYTHING that goes into their music. Having the PREDOMINANT hand is every SINGLE ASPECT of their craft. That's LITERALLY unheard of in kpop. As far as i know, no other group has as much control over what they do than Stray Kids. Seriously, 99% control over every detail of their own music direction and creation, all the way to when they decide to rest and for how long. The company SUPPORTS such a way of doing things, because not only have the Kids earned it, but considering the energy surrounding them right now, it was obviously a well deserved placement of trust as well. (Sadly, other groups who 100% DESERVE to also have that kind of trust and ability fk be themselves where it matters, both professionally and personally... They don't have that. I can EASILY thing of one of the most MONUMENTALLY massive groups out and brimming with unending natural talent. Yet even they don't get to create NEARLY as much of their music, nor are they the primary source of everything they do. Meanwhile, I'm sure they would LOVE to be, and I'm sure they would have KILLED it even more in the world that they already have, had they been allowed to. But unfortunately, companies always want to control, control, control. In their case, even though these men are responsible for that company being where it is, companies tebd to only see these groups as something THEY CREATED, inatead of the truth... That company wouldn't exist without their idols. I have seen so many fans upset because their group has straight up told them the company controls so much of what they can and can't do. They have to ask for permission to change their hair... (Meanwhile, Hyunjin chopped all of his off and colored it yellow right after his grandfather passed away. He got death threats from his solo stans for months, and yet the company supported his decision, allowed him to keep it as long as he wanted, and did what they could to protect him from the hate.) They have to ask for permission to do a live... 3 days in advance!! And when they broke the rule, it was such a big move for them to have made, that they even tell their fans about it. (They are Hella brave for how much they defy their company, but they shouldn't have to be. Seriously, i may not be a member of their fandom, but i agree with their fans wholeheartedly. Those guys have the power and they are capable of doing everything they need to thrive, themselves. They should definitely leave... Sorry, of course this comment is about our amazing SKZ, but there are groups that are a great examples of amazingly gifted individuals who deserve much better, but SkZ are the only ones who seem to have actually GOTTEN some semblance of honest-to-goodness better testament and industry support. While others have a company who, despite basically being built by their success, have yet to realize they NEED to let go.) Stray Kids... They got lucky that their company had already gone through such a learning experience. Because back when they messed up with, got sued by, and subsequently lost to their older brother group...( WITH THE HELP of their founder and ex CEO, Mister JYP, I might add. 😂 Yeah, he realized they messed up, and to this day, said group is indeed very grateful to him.) So for SKZ, it's true that basically, a miracle occurred for them. The company had learned from their mistakes, and now thanks to JYP himself and all those who came before them. SKZ don't have to go through any of that. They don't have to defy their company just to be themselves. They have that aspect of their professional life without having to defy anyone. We should be grateful for that... What we shouldn't do is be even more picky. You know? Fact is, they are the first idol boy group to thrive under JYPE, and much of that has to do with the company agreeing that maybe they aren't good at making and properly promoting/supporting male groups. That perhaps, just maybe, the key for them would be to back off. In fact, at some point after JYP left the position of CEO, he decided to position himself between Stray Kids and JYPE in order to make sure that, since their self-made freedoms are one of the key factors in Stray Kids massive popularity, that such a beloved trait must remain protected. In return, the only thing that is asked of the kids, is that they respect the foundational rules set forth when the company was formed, rules that are perhaps not as obviously necessary as us international fans see it, but at home in South Korea...they seem as very sensible and fair. Such as... No dating for the first 3 years, after that however, they will not only allow it... They will literally welcome your relationship with open arms. (Hell, they will do even more than just protect their right to HAVE private lives, they allow them to lead those lives as often as they possibly can. Even while actively working! So long as they are at the company, or at the very least are being filmed by in-house staff, and aren't doing something in which they're live, or where editing isn't a possibility. Deciding to let them do as they wish, and instead of restrictions, they simply cut anything out that they don't want shown to the fans. Because it's not our business.) Other than that the rules are very basic and of good reasoning. It's simple really, Be kind, be humble, and never get caught using foul language. Think about it... They do have many young fans. And although I agree that due to the content of their songs, which is indeed quite mature at times, that the age of fans, preferably, should never dip below 15... 12 at THE YOUNGEST. That said, I do not believe that the desire to have their idols use clean language had anything to do with age or even content of their music. I think it has to do with being respectful to the public. We all know how much being respectful and polite means to our Kids, weather it's coming or going, they are always mindful. So i don't think they have a problem with such a rule really. If they themselves were, then i would say that makes it a completely valid issue to stand behind. However, since it's not, and because it's MOST DEFINITELY not a reason to wish the Kids had a different company altogether...(come on guys lol really)Well, then we should respect the fact that it is a rule. While, of course, celebrating their talent in finding clever, even ingenious, ways around if. Haha.
FNF = Fauna and Flora. Bang Chan and Felix (Aussie bros) wrote it after the wildfires in Australia. It's a heartbreak song written to indirectly describe the sadness of it all. But it is musically beautiful! It's sad with a twinge of hope, ya know?
DLC = Dance like crazy FNF = Fauna N' Flora (fauna and flora), this song started out and original meaning is about Bang Chan and Felix watching the Australian wild fires in 2020 and all that devastation and not being able to comfort their home. Secondary meaning came out even more when Felix started working on it with Chan and it has a secondary meaning of not being left behind or also like a loss of love as well as literally the loss of the nature and animals and homes. Tears covered in red was more supposed to be like you cried and your eyes are red from the tears
I really love all the reactions you make! You make me laugh a lot! I hope that we can see you react to the lyrics too, I loved the old video where u was explaining that too! Thank you for the video ❤ Ps: FNF is written by Chris and talks about Australia 😊
Thank you!! To be honest, between my computer taking extra long and youtube telling me that people stopped watching the videos when I read the lyrics, I had a hard decision to make. I am still trying to figure out a way to get the lyrics back though, because I lowkey loved my lyric readings 😭💜
@@LandonMark I’m far away to be a pro but I watch a lot of video reaction here on UA-cam and I really love like seeing the songs reactions one by one. I like to see your long videos too obviously, but maybe doing a video for each song may be the solution. But I say it again, I don’t have any experience in this kind of things so maybe I’m wrong! 💜
You’re hilarious and I loved the album! My least favorites were FNF and DLC, but even then I like them fine. And psh… I couldn’t tell you my favorite one.
I really enjoyed your reactions, I wish it was longer. I like that you like the crazy, unstructured and chaotic songs of SKZ cause I love it all too. I also really that you embrace their uniqueness. You are always fun to watch and I always look forward to your reaction videos specially with SKZ. ❤
Talk about timing. FNF MV just came out. Flora and Fauna. Inspired by loss of wildlife during the 2019-2020 Australian bushfires. As usual, it can also be interpreted about loss in general. Video highlights scenes of their recent trip to Australia, Melbourne to be specific. 😊
" Why is this song made of sex???" -continues dancing with a shocked face- "uh your crying blood.....are we gonna address this?....." -Doesnt care about it after a few secs and enjoys the rest of the song- lmao i laughed so hard.😂 This whole album is amazing!
Yeah...not for me, could hardly listen past half song. Idk, they are too messy for me and incohesive. The slow song though has cohesive lyrics is just uninteresting both in lyrics and melody. Dancy song is nice if you want put smth on the background, wouldn't bead if i hear it at festival somewhere. Tiger JK collab is more cohesive especially lyrics wise, maybe because of his involvement, but still, to call song top line and have such unmemorable top line for it , i mean it's a choice
It’s a shame you don’t enjoy their music, l find them quite innovative in their interpretations of different genres and honestly a refreshing change from the predictability of most KPop although saying that, there are some very good groups out there.Also you finding their lyrics not cohesive, quite a few deliberately have different meanings woven into the fabric of the song and also the English translations are totally screwed up sometimes.

Honestly, FNF is not the type of song I smile too. It sounds pretty, but if you know the story behind it it's probably the saddest song on this album.
what is the story
@@jeannie13 Its about the Australian wildfires that killed lots of wildlife and foliage and some people. It's also is about losing loved ones and “catching up with them.” There are quite a few layered meanings.
@@mx.confused Oh i didn't know that. That's so sad. The song makes more sense now. Thank you for informing me

😔☹️ I did not know that. How sad
Best album of the year. #1 Billboard 200
FINALLY SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS ME THIS IS LITERALLY HOW I FELT LISTENING TO THIS ALBUM

IN- "Han always writes petty love songs."
✨Collision✨ XD
I SWEAR HANS SAYING "our shit's so bussin" LIKE THERES NO WAY HES SAYING DISH
!!!!!! I will only be saying shit when listening and singing along hahahha
I can't wait for stray kids to go independent or to a different label so they can start swearing. I wanne hear a song from them where the clean version sounds like Lil Wayne's "Drop the world" clean version.
