Ahem.
WATCH BLOOD, SWEAT AND TEARS:
I thought Jungkook was joking when he said they'll be a more mature side to the group since they are all human memes but I WAS WRONG AND UNPREPARED. Their outfits, the dance moves the lyrics were so....sensual. I actually can't, I'm blushing. You know it's intense when it makes a brown person blush.
Anyway lets talk about the graphics and editing. I loved the whole art museum theme and how we saw it throughout. The members where in the museum itself and within the paintings. From the set to the props, everything was so detailed and merged together well.
The song- LOVE LOVE LOVE It's current and the vocals are amazing. All the vocalists improved and when they were singing it was angelic, I mean those HIGH NOTES!!! Honestly, the one thing that I could complain about is Jin's lines, or lack of. He did have a lot of screen time though which I guess helps balance it out but if his one line was at least a solo line and not shared with Jimin then I think it would've been better. I saw a mini clip on twitter of them practising the dance at that part and Jin was at the front which makes me happy since he isn't at the back the whole time. In term of the rappers, THIS IS J-HOPE'S ERA. I love how he got more lines and had a chance to shine like the sunshine he is. Even though RM didn't get many lines (I felt this was ok since he usually has larger parts in other songs and he narrated) he still managed to kill me. I don't know what it is but the way he says chocolate URGH. I was caught off guard because me and my sister were freaking and it suddenly got quiet. Usually it annoys me when this happens but I felt like they made it flow and when the music came back it was smooth. As for Suga, his voice is amazing so he could say anything and I would love it. This isn't about his rap but I really liked his jacket/shirt thing. I don't know if it's just me but I get a bollywood/arabic vibe from it. There's probably a bollywood song that sounds similar but I can't place it. Overall the song is super catchy and it has been stuck in my head since it came out. I have trouble sleeping because the tune is in my head and I feel like dancing.
The album- I can honestly say I loved EVERY song in this album. It was nice how each member had a solo track each but my favourites were MAMA by J-hope and Awake by Jin. I like MAMA because I like upbeat songs and I think the style suited J-hope well. Even though I'm not a huge fan of slow song and ballads I really like Awake, maybe because of Jin's voice? The song is just relaxing to me. Regardless, all the solo tracks were all beautiful. Even without knowing about the meaningful lyrics, you could still feel the emotion from every single member. Just a point worth mentioning, who knew V could sing that high? Also in the album were the tracks Cypher pt 4 which featured the rappers and Lost which involved the vocalists. Personally, I liked Lost a *tiny* bit more. However, I liked how Cypher pt 4 was something unexpected since it didn't sound like the other parts but the lyrics were still SAVAGE. 2!3! has such cute lyrics. My favourite song from the album is Blood, Sweat and Tears and in joint 2nd would be Am I Wrong and 21st century girl. I loved the intro and interlude (damn this means there's a second part) but out of the two, the intro is my favourite since J-hope gets to showcase all his talents and his wish came true, which was to do the intro. I think this album really shows how talented each and every member is and how versatile BTS are as a whole. It's a different sound but they still KILLED IT. Perfect way to start a new era.
I'm glad Bighit ended their contract with 1thek. It makes it easier for fans to increase views and helped us to break records! Nice try with the 'break wings' project antis but didn't really work though, did it? A for effort though. Here is a list: https://www.reddit.com/r/bangtan/comments/56u39p/bts_wings_record_breakers_will_be_updated_as_more/
One of the things that makes me really happy is that WINGS was #1 in several countries, including the UK! That's right, the land that seems to be unknown to kpop idols/agencies had a kpop album as #1 on iTunes. Hopefully this increases the chance of Kcon London. Also, I love the idea that people might be browsing iTunes or something and they see Wings, get curious so they check it out and they become a fan. It's amazing how big of a fandom we are now.
I'm SO EXCITED for this whole promotion period and how Bighit and BTS will spoil us. I'm hoping for lots variety shows too, as long as the boys are healthy though. Health comes first.
Enjoy the rest of your day :)
Because I'm a bit weird I'm going to put this here again (just hit 11 million views!):
