Does he know I miss him? Can he show himself for a bit? He can play Lego, I don’t care. Just for a bit. With his beautiful hair and his beautiful self.

[zeeswords]

Mr Leader, aka, Kim Namjoon throwing shade on One More Night for absolutely no reason when it’s a whole vibe. Everyone gets sucked into the ‘fantasy, fantasy’. We need to chart this song to show him (and Hobi).

[zeeswords]

Crowd singing Black Swan alongside BTS is like a slap on the faces of the people who said the song didn’t have an impact. Impact can be financial, and that’s valid. But impact can also be cultural which Black Swan is. So yeah, if the album and concert production and organising team have ears and a brain, they would take notes.

I’m just putting it out there…in the universe…but can we have the DJ playing Baepsae as the surprise track at the next show and then they could do Paradise and Louder than Bombs? Just. Yeah. Or. Or. Can we have them merge Idol with On? I don’t know. In my head it just sounds good.

[zeeswords]

Here it is for all. This is why I love Jimin on Baepsae. This is why. And 2.0 Jimin is even better. Unhinged.

[zeeswords]

Look at Mexican army winning at life and getting BP pt 2 and the aerial Jimin who can still do it to perfection at age 30 (😒) and El Mariachi. Jimin in Airplane pt2 is a siren.

Beautiful man. With his beautiful hair. And his beautiful skin. I feel attacked. Also, slim pants are back.

BTS - Arirang

So here goes, in order of preference:

a) Like Animal - hands down the best song in the album. Already spoke about it here.

b) Aliens - RM got me in a chokehold as soon as he starts rapping. And Jhope? There’s a reason why he was the one to release his solo work first. Vocal line? Stupendous. Jimin, again, my favourite. But seriously? RM. The moment he comes on - it just takes the song to another level.

c) Body to body - this should have been released in place of Swim. But I also see why it wasn’t. I agree with JiHope that the original shorter version with JKs vocals layered over Arirang would have been a better choice. I hope they do release that version.

d) They don’t know about us - I really like this song. Right off the bat. It’s got that oomph. The only thing I wish they could have done better is to reduce the repetitiveness. I don’t know why this is a common theme throughout the tracks in this album.

e) One more night - very underrated song according to me. It’s one I would reach for when driving

f) Normal - how do you know I’m a true Jimin biased? Because I replay 0.39-0.50 just to hear those breathy vocals.

g) Please - the way JiKook’s voices harmonise and Jin on this album (silver voice for a reason) are the only reason why I like this song. Give me more of that.

h) Swim - I already spoke about it. But now that I’ve listened to the remixes I actually loved JK’s acoustic version, Suga’s version and Jimin’s version.

I don’t really have an order for the rest of the tracks.

Also, I need to say this…and it may be controversial but it’s how I feel - they didn’t have to overly process the vocal line’s voices. Honestly. While I love JK’s voice, everyone didn’t need to sound like him. BTS has a strong vocal line and each member has a specific tone/colour to his voice which adds to the song. Overprocessing them made it sound very western and while the goal is to appeal to the global audience, there was no need to sacrifice the artistic element. BTS is bigger than that.

[zeeswords]

As I listen to the album more, and after going for the live viewing, all these rankings need to be redone. But I don’t have the time. Sigh.

They don’t know bout us is one that has climbed up the ranks right after Like Animals. At some point I should do a lyrical analysis. I’m sure others have as well but yeah…probably going to write something on it.

JHope’s verse and the flow is so good!!

2.18 onwards….stupendous. That’s Jin providing background vocals.

Jimin really has an ear for music, eh?

[zeeswords]

So I went for the live viewing. It’s not the real thing but the vibe was insane. I don’t know what people in the past experienced but I had the most amazing time. Do I wish there was more choreo? Definitely. But did the lack of it truly affect my experience as a fan? No. I also wish I could have taken better pictures but this is all I have.

I have had the best time singing along and it only made me want to attend a concert. I really really hope they incorporate some more choreo, at least for the more hyped up songs like Run BTS. For newer army’s who’ve never been to a BTS concert and were looking forward to it, it would be a treat to watch them perform in that manner. I could see Jimin’s dance demon wanting to break out so many times. Ugh. My man. See this.

There was a point where I got so emotional. I don’t know why. These boys are just so beautiful. I don’t get why some of them get hated on so much. They are all so talented. Beautiful. Inside out. Jimin especially in that white outfit killed me. I think both him and Namjoon decided they would flex their gorgeous arms today and kill us. This is my ghost writing this post.

I cannot wait for the insane fan cams. Because, it is impossible to capture everyone. I get it. And so I am waiting to see all the fan cams so I can freak out again.

I love you, BTS.

[zeeswords]

This is too beautiful a gif for me to not reblogg this post with it

Stunner. This is what I meant when I said lack of choreo didn’t really affect my experience. Seeing him break his body, dance demon taking over…ugh. I don’t have words.

[zeeswords]

Jimin makes me feel so many things. I’m sometimes unable to voice them. I’m unable to verbalise what he does. To me. I have many words, many thoughts but he. I don’t know. He is just so. So beautiful. So out of this world. How does he just…know what to do?!

[jimindiscussion]

I can’t even say it eloquently but I’m so full of love for Jimin right now. I don’t even know how to explain what I’m feeling. And it’s not even because of how beautiful he looked or how good he sounded or anything related to his career. It’s just because of him as a person. So selfless, so mature and responsible, so empathetic.

I sound so parasocial right now but I just cannot get over how many performers will go on stage and half ass everything, and they won’t care at all (or not enough) about how disappointed their fans are. The same fans who spend a ton of money on tickets, on transportation and accommodations just to see them. And it’s not justification but it’s just natural to sort of be desensitized to that stuff after over a decade in this career. How much can you care? How long can it all feel just as important and precious as the early days?

But then here’s Jimin, who comes online late at night, at a time he doesn’t usually, because he’s worried about how fans felt. Here’s Jimin, one of the most popular members of the biggest band in the world, visibly uncomfortable but pushing through because he wants to comfort fans and communicate to them clearly. Here’s Jimin, who feels like he can only sleep peacefully if he knows his fans are happy and satisfied and you can tell he means it. He doesn’t play cold, detached, or “above” that as a celebrity of his status is expected.

This is the same Jimin who originally thought to make his debut album free. The same Jimin who has constantly pointed out how much money fans spend. The same one who is constantly telling them to not get a cold, to be careful, to not worry if they can’t afford something or if they can’t access things the correct way, because he’ll love them anyway. Who writes paragraphs to his fans to give them advice, who tears up when he sees how much he and the group have given to people, who looks out at the crowd every night they perform and has a moment of pure awe.

He’s just so in touch with his emotions and humanity in an industry that seems intent on stripping every one of it. I’ve always said that the reason why Jimin’s fans are so dedicated is because they don’t just love him as an artist. They don’t just love him for his skills, or his stage presence, or his vocals, his dance, his numbers and achievements. Because as much as they love all of those things, they love, perhaps even more, who he is as a PERSON. And it’s not just for say or for show. It’s real, genuine admiration for who he is and how he’s presented himself consistently all this time.

His recent livestream just reaffirmed that for me.

Re One more night- this tweet best describes what I was trying to say:

[zeeswords]

I’m going to have to add Merry Go Round to the list, right above Swim and into the sun right after Swim. But. I have a feeling Into the Sun will climb up the ranks fast.

See. This is what happens when you sit with an album, listen, especially without pressure. I always believe that music is not meant to be rushed. The songs that stay with you are the songs that deserve all the accolades. That is how true artists measure success, IMO. I know numbers and awards and financial success is great but if your art fizzles out then what is the point? I know that I still listen to the Dark and Wild album and enjoy its songs despite it being released many years ago. I enjoy listening to music from the 90’s and 2000’s because it’s great music. I love listening to Indigo by RM, Face by JM again and again because it’s good music.

[zeeswords]

Few thoughts:

a) Jimin is the sweetest, kindest but most self aware member. He is not a child who needs protection. Stop treating him like that.

b) he loves performing and is critical of his performances. You don’t need to do it for him. He already does it soon as the concert is over. Probably in between too. But from the clips I’ve seen, God he brought his vocals. As he always does. But today, even new Army (who may have been fed a narrative) will have seen (heard) what this man is capable of. Why his voice is the watermark of BTS.

c) you may not like it, but he loves his members. He worked hard on this album, as did they. And he and they, deserve respect for that. You may not like the album or may feel he has few lines (he does not) or feel like he should be the only vocalist (defeats the purpose of BTS) or feel that he should move solo (and may be they all will eventually but for now he wants to enjoy with BTS and he said so himself and I’ve said this before, 7 men bring more numbers than 1) so for his sake, respect that.

d) he is a performer. It probably killed him a little to not do the power packed choreo, and worse to see commentary about it.

e) man is sexy. Hands down. He embodies sexy. Even post concert live, he looked so fresh, post concert glow…even though he was sombre (or introspective) in parts

f) he is online. He reads stuff. Maybe not everything. But I’m sure he knows what people think. Even if he isn’t online himself, he is part of the biggest boy band in the world and is from the KPop industry. He knows stuff that is said.

g) he needs to post his Hooligan mv fit pics

I made a thing. Spin the wheel to find out your forever Arirang song. It's totally random so who knows what the universe will decide for you...

Tell me what you got!

I got Into the Sun. I can live with that.
