tagged by @jiminsproof and @hopeonthestreets to post my top 5 bangtan songs (double attack on this fine saturday)
thank you both for tagging me, i take this as a wonderful excuse to ramble about my favorite songs and also to cry over having to narrow them down to just five<3
in no particular order:
spring day
all rise for our national anthem. this song means so much to me and easily one of the top songs i go to on a bad day. the themes, emotions, the meaning, it’s all very near and dear to my heart. who knows, maybe i’m just always a sucker for seasonal metaphors in media.
euphoria
fun fact euphoria was my most played song this year according to spotify wrapped. as someone who found bts early this year, this song really scratched my brain in all the good spots, and it still does. the song sounds beautiful and of course jungkook’s vocals are euphoria to the ears (i am promptly boo’d off stage). there’s so much love in the song and it just makes me feel so good. my best friend describes the song as “a perfect song to walk home to” and i think that properly sums up my feelings as well.
film out
this song does things to my brain that i cannot explain. jimin’s verse truly makes me feel like running around my room and doing parkour off my walls, that is the only way i can explain it. THE EMOTION, THE MELODY, THE DRAMA, THE VOCALS. i love every single one of their japanese songs, in fact i have like 5 of them on my favorites playlist, but this one truly makes me feel insane in the best way [:
on
on was maybe one of the first songs that i happened across while i was getting into bts that blew me away so far that i never came back. there was a list of songs i recommended to watch every possible content of to my friends in my infamous slideshow i presented to them to get into bts with me, and on was at the top of that list every time. (other honorable mentions from that list were black swan, dionysus, and idol) the choreography is INSANE and still makes me insane, the themes and messages, and knowing what mots7 meant for the tannies now... it all hit so hard and it still does
arson
on the topic of songs that make me go insane, this one definitely does still too. i remember the night arson dropped, i was up dancing and running around my room for like an hour. same thing with hobipalooza too! it’s such a tasty song, the burn of passion, the want to keep burning hotter and hotter, the quiet question of “should i slow down or keep blazing on?” and the acknowledgement that you are the only one who can make that decision OOOH it’s spicy
honorable mentions goes to the songs that i couldn’t stop crying over for weeks: yet to come and the astronaut, as well as the song i currently cannot stop crying over: wild flower!
more honorable mentions from my extensive bts favorites playlist are: black swan, lights, outro: ego, trivia: love, 134340, serendipity, run bts, as well as newly added change pt.2 and still life! and so so so many others
and now i give this impossible task (should you want to!) to salma @seoksao and wish you the best of luck if you do<3
