Jimin explained that his album/tracks are retrospective of his feelings during the pandemic which he has eventually overcome. He states that he distanced himself from others, and drank and was lonely and thinking about how they cant do the things they love to do including performing. Like Crazy was inspired by the movie "Like Crazy", the MV/lyrics depicts him in a dream which he does not want to wake up from to go back to reality and facing himself. Then is set free as expressed in Set Me Free, the track that comes later after that in the album. I highly recommend watching yoongis show, Suchwita, with Jimin! Jimin speaks more about the album and the team and its such a wholesome watch!
The guy on his pants is American photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. He is best known for his Black and white photos. His most controversial works documented and examined the gay male BDSM subculture of New York City in the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jimins photoportforlio is also inspired a little by him 😁💜 Love your reactions and energy 😁💜
It feels to me like Jimin and FACE Team selected all the best qualities of the 80’s in the music, dance moves, interactions between dancers, atmospheres, drama, costume, etc for Like Crazy and have managed to elevate them to SUCH A HIGHER LEVEL! His voice fits this so well that it made me instantly go “of course this is the Jimin sound/genre”. The choreo: there’s nothing like witnessing true sensual ease and they pulled it off like so silky smoothly. I totally agree with what you said about the high level of dance skills required to pull this off. Jimin’s artistry is stunning! I swear I’m getting flashes of so many 80’s dance movies like Footloose, Flash Dance, and Dirty Dancing. And so much MJ reminiscing during the Fallon performance, too. I’m so crazy for Like Crazy that I want to sing I’m Crazy For You (I think you’ll get that reference). Thanks for the reaction. 💜
When I heard Like Crazy I KNEW it would be right up your alley!! It's such a vibe (lol) and I love it 😭 His voice is dreamy and pretty and really sells the story he wants to convey with the song/mv. I am SO proud of him for this album 😊 Also, when you do the album listen there is a hidden song (CD only though ppl have uploaded lyric videos, it's hidden on Like Crazy English version at 6:13 minutes in called Letter that is definitely a must listen as well 🥺)
This song is SO FREAKING GOOOOOD I’ve been streaming non stop and I swear I would never get over it, I just fall in love even more with it (and the choreo uff so gooood 😤). And YES as soon as I heard the 80’s vibes I knew you were going to love it and I wasn’t wrong lol. I’m so proud of him 💜
I was 100% certain you were going to be in love with this song. I’m already highly anticipating your top 20 of 2023 to see if Jimin ends up at #1. Also, I appreciate you so much for not shitting all over Set Me Free because of the autotune and actually loving the song. I’m fucking obsessed with it. I’ve listened to it over 100 times at this point and it’s already in my top 5 favorite songs ever, but pretty much all I see regarding it is just criticism and negativity. It’s beyond confusing to me, so I feel so happy and relieved when I come across someone who actually likes it. I knew you would.
This is literally the best Like Crazy reaction ever 😁💜 I love your appreciation of the choreo! It's one of my favs ever with the flowing subtle moves and the smooth hip movements (lol)!
this song and MV are so special to me. I’m only a few minutes in so I don’t know if you noticed, but in the sequence where they show people dancing together with a filter over it, there's two women dancing together. BTS and Jimin continue to be a safe space and create art that invites everyone and that’s so special ❤️ FACE means the world to me
The first time I saw the 'Like Crazy' mv, my first thought was 'This is what I grew-up listening to. I love this'. then immediately thought "OMG! Anitra is going to friggin love it." My first comment is being held for review. Not sure why. I did recommend a video, so maybe that's why? Anyway, if you don't approve it it's fine. As long as you see it, that's what matters.
@@saywhatreacts Just tried to comment again here & my comment isn't here, again. Maybe I should sent it to you on IG. I can give you a link there. Let me know if you want me to do that.
@@saywhatreacts That's so strange. The video I recommended is an analysis of the 'Like Crazy' choreo. I love their interpretation. I just realized, I don't need to post the link here or on IG. I can just send the video/tiktok directly to you on the site. I also just followed you there. React to it, or watch it on your own. Either way, I hope you watch it & enjoy. I was wondering if you got my address? I won a TXT PC last month (Feb 25th, I think) for 'never won before'. Sent it on IG.
Omg ive also been so OBSESSED! This is something you want to blast in the car while the windows are rolled down and wind blowing in ugh! Also, before people start commenting their theories, many have been going around spreading these speculations about like crazy/the album, and some can be quite a reach, but theyre just that, theories, and shouldnt be spread as facts! Jimin has been very clear about his intentions and meaning about his music/work and should be taken at face value! 💜
Last live, you were saying you love retro vibes and I was thinking wait till you watched Like Crazy lol The Like Crazy dance gives me a similar vibe to Filter, the flow of the body movements. I like Set Me Free dance more just beyond how powerful it is especially the running forward part. I love the album, also there's a hidden track on physical album called Letter with a surprise background vocal.
I very much was thinking "Anitra is going to bleeping love this" - and knew you'd lose your mind as soon as you recovered enough to react to it. I'm looking forward to you listening to the rest of the album. I can't remember if you mentioned whether you knew already - but there's a hidden track called "Letter", so please also pull that up when you do the album reaction. Also, I totally knew exactly what you were going to say before you even said his name when you brought up being able to pull off SUBTLE dance moves. Move is the song that hooked me on Taemin, he's amazing.
ANITRA ITS SOOO GOOD 😭😭 i am soooo obsessed with this era omg. i knew i would like it, but the fact that my ult of ults made a whole album that is exactly my taste is insane. i am so fucking proud of him 🥺🥺🥺🥺
We watched the premiere of Like Crazy in the MARTA station after the SKZ concert. We freaked out. I thought when Jimin was in the club he was sort of forcing himself to have fun. Like he is apart from BTS and wanted to be with his members. IDK?
Yay been waiting for thiss!!! I love how fun and free the video, song and choreography's are, Jimin truly delivered such a good concept. And Glad you enjoyed them!!!! 💜💜💜
Acne studios is a clothing brand 😁 there are so many little details in this mv, the duality ,embracing your own femininity, anima/animus concept from Jungian psychology (even Jimin is wearing eye makeup and earring only on one side) ,this song is pure perfection! It should be heard on the radio and yet we have no radio play even though there's a fully eng version 🤨 f*** those Industry ppl who hate bts
Omg yes about the radio, this song is perfect especially with an english version existing I think a lot of people would fall in love with this song just look at "Blinding Lights" by the Weekend how that song was everywhere, if they could only hear it being played I think gp would like it.
I couldn’t have said it better. F*ck the stations and studios that don’t support BTS. They are the most amazing artist of any generation. I love Jimin and BTS so much.
The more I hear this song the more I love it! When you were describing driving at night in the city and this song playing I was like yas! I actually have a playlist that was inspired by the stranger things theme song when the first season came out has some retro house dance music too as well as some John Carpenter remixes lol. What I really love about Like Crazy is the music is extremely retro but the melody he is singing feels more modern and yet it blends perfectly.
I am a synth-head & also lived through all the 1980's too & remember the synth-rock, synth-pop, new-wave bands & most of their songs. See if you remember these groups, because I still do ... Pet Shop Boys, Human League, Tangerine Dream, Depeche Mode, Thomas Dolby, Spandau Ballet, Tears for Fears, Howard Jones, OMD, Thompson Twins, Erasure, Ultravox, Berlin, Kajagoogoo, Eurythmics, Bryan Ferry/Roxy, The Yazz, Missing Persons, Yanni & so many others. In the 1970's, I also remember these pioneering giants of experimental synth music ... Isao Tomita, Vangelis, Jean Michel Jarre, Wendy Carlos, YMO, Kraftwerk, etc. And of course, I know the one who is considered the Father of the Synthesizer, Robert Moog, the electrical engineer who did a lot to make the synth it became to be & all the way to today. Without Moog & the musicians listed above, we would not have gotten this retro 80's synth sound, as well as EDM Synthwave/Chillwave today, & of course, this song "Like Crazy". Thanks to Jimin for at least helping bring the sound back, if only for a brief moment.
I totally agree everything with u Soooo .....sooooo ...obsessed with the song and how u explain about the 80s retro song style too. Remain me of driving around the city, after the rain, open the window car and the city light + retro on my radio station I love that moment sooo much. 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜 so much your reaction to this song. Thank u so much and love u girl!!!!
Loved ur reaction I loved all the references to other things Jimin put in each mv I feel that this was him freeing himself to embrace both his masculine and feminine sides which he feels he can do now without being judge because if we go back to proof he has the most damage to his shield and the green beam which played out in Like Crazy and ppl always judge jimin about him being to feminine so this was his way of taking the power back an setting himself free of the judgement and loving both sides of himself
I was waiting for your reaction the most out of all reactors i'm subscribed to just beacause i knew this type of songs are your vibe 😊 plus it's Jimin and plus the choreo! I was not expecting teary eyes but i totaly get it🤣 This is my type of jam also, it's been on repeat since friday and it's only getting better with each listen. Plus there are two remixes also (Deep House and UK Garage) and both are just as amazing! Can't wait for you to hear the album! It's a no skip for me. I'm so proud of Jimin💜💜💜 And please don't forget there is a hidden track called Letter. Looking forward for you hearing that song the most! Borahae💜
I`ve been quietly subscribed to you since you started reacting to BTS, so loooong time. I`m also a patreon. I KNEW KNEEEEEEEEEWWWWWW you would obsess over this song. I was also alive in the 80`s (LOL) so I get what you mean re the vibe of this song. I cannot stop listening to it, I`m also obsessed. It´s perfect, Jimin is perfect.
Thanks for the reaction! I also knew you’d like it. I’m surprised the reaction was under an hour lol! I look forward to all your reactions! Btw, besides the Tonight Show performance and interview there were also 2 short cute/funny skits that Jimin and Jimmy did (The Jimin Experience and Jimmy is a Jimin Superfan) that are on youtube. You can react to them or watch on your own - it's always your choice. I only mention this because you mentioned future reactions in the video.💜
The first time I watched the MV I believe I was midway and my immediate thought was “omg Anitra is gonna be obsessed with this”🤣 I’m glad that your voice is recovering! Thank u for the reaction, is a totally different experience watching the videos with u, I always feel like im with my bestie and love how I can freak out with u. Sending u virtual hugs😘
I was waiting patiently I know your voice was not well but when I listen to this song I went crazy I am in love with this song so much and I knew you would love it 💜
I 100% agreed with everything you've said. This song is amazing. I was having ABBA vibes (and a teens if anyone knows of them), which I love. But yes, great reaction. 💜💜💜💜
I had a feeling you would love this one I know you like a 80s vibe.😊 The picture on his pants is a famous photographer Robert Michael Mapplethorpe definitely look him up.
On the album listen I hope you can add" letter" it was a hidden song on the cd . When you listen to like crazy english on the cd at 6:13😭 Letter plays.
Hi, i am back. Good reaction, ty. Glad u loved this song too. Loved Set Me Free pt.2. It's catchy. I love this one as well. He sounds so good. It's so catchy. Love the fit and visuals. Adore this 80s synth pop sound. So much hidden meaning in this. I was shocked by this MV. Glad u know about his performance of it on Jimmy Fallon. =0) His album is about his feeling about the pandemic. So i try to see that in the songs. Him singing that he wants to be in the lights to me he is saying he wants to be on stage. Reading armies theories and more details from what Jimin has shared about this song I get a better understanding of what he is trying to say. Jimin is also too sexy in this. Gah. Taemin!!! Yes, i was thinking the same thing but did not have the words. U and Jenny (another reactor but in UK) got great eye for the choreo. If Taemin does a dance challenge with Jimin to this I will die. God. Hugs. -NY USA 2019 Army💟 Meg_Dances said on 3/25/23 In the live dance a woman reflects Jimin's dance so I think she may be his Anima adora⁷ |🪞𝗙𝗔𝗖𝗘 ᵒⁿ ᵗʰᵉ ˢᵗʳᵉᵉᵗ🚏 @dulcetbangtan said on 3/22/23 from twt FACE album is about pandemic. Like Crazy movie: about the toll of long distance r/s.. Like Crazy poster: alone slumped at home in the dark, water gushing, caving in.. is it about covid forcing jimin to be apart from the ones he loves?😭 raya said on 3/25/23 loved your reaction as always! to give you some context, Jimin did say the song was inspired by the movie but he also added that it is a song that expresses the hurt after a breakup and the emotion of the moment when you try to run away from reality to forget your wounds... so you can see that he's drinking in the MV, saying he'd rather be "lost in the lights" instead of facing his reality, saying that he doesn't want to be saved, doesn’t want to be awake from this dream where everything's fine and he isn't hurt. also, I'm not sure if you noticed that the camera focused on a girl that's walking directly at him while he also walks directly at her and the theory is that she's his reflection/another part of himself that he didn't want to FACE and she's also the one who grabbed him at the beggining of the MV with the muddy hand and you can notice that at the end his own hand is muddy cause he and his reflection are finally one. :) he's a true artist and a genius. Love Yourself said on 3/25/23 Jimin said that the song 'like crazy' is a synthpop and explained that "it's a song that expresses the emotion of the moment when you run away from reality to forget your wounds" He also said that the movie "like crazy" inspired him I didn't watch the movie but I hered that the movie has a sad and realistic ending so actually the song 'like crazy' is NOT meant to mean anything sensual but actually something sad...I think a lot of people will probably misunderstand the song The reason why there are couples kissing and stuff is because the movie is about a couple and I think the voices at the beginning and at the end are from the actual movie.This is the video where Jimin explained it said that: th-cam.com/video/7_kZ8TI-pds/w-d-xo.html CoreyDubsThee said on 3/25/23 I saw a theory that the girl is like a representation of the softer, more feminine parts of himself. Her jacket is similar to the one he wears for the hardware version, her muddied hand pulls him into the club and then their actions mirror each other. When they finally face each other, Jimin facing himself, she disappears and Jimin's hand is now muddied, so it's implied he's finally accepted her and they've merged into one Jimin. I don't think it's a secret that Jimin has struggled with his softer side and earlier tried to mask it with hyper-masculinity. This song and album also make me think he tried to handle it with alcohol. So glad he has the members and people to support him and that he's in a better place now, when it comes to accepting himself. Such a beautiful person inside and out, he deserves the best things! Edit: After seeing the choreography, I feel this theory is all but confirmed. With Jimin and one of the female dancers mirroring each other, then when she goes behind him back-to-back, it's like him incorporating her into himself. Jacqui Hicks said on 3/27/23 Written to show how he was feeling during the pandemic; knowing military enlistment would be breaking up the band sooner than later, and there's also a lot of Jung symbolism. Anima/animus - masculine/feminine the recognition and acceptance of your feminine/masculine side. That's all in this song and video as well. Thanks Knox as usual you show really good insight into BTS songs , music, words and flow. and I'm also loving 'Butterfly Effect'. Amaris said on 3/25/23 This song is so good! I do know that in an interview he was asked what dream he wanted to stay in forever in regards to this song and he said "It's BTS, frankly. I want to stay in this dream that is BTS for a long time." 😭 Keeping that in mind with the lyrics : This will break me This is gonna break me No don't you wake me I wanna stay in this dream, don't save me Don't you try to save me I need a way we I need a way we can dream on
Great reaction By the way there is a hidden track called letter it’s for Army and there a member doing background vocals his the youngest member 😊💜 the lyrics video for the song is up on TH-cam oh also there’s the Behind the scene of set me free pt2 mv
Loved your reaction!! Also, I don’t know if you know yet but there is a hidden track on the album titled ‘Letter’. It’s a fan song and JK does backing vocals!

Next bts concert will be one for the decade if not century. Their solo performances will be exquisite.
My very first thought when I heard the retro 80's vibes of this song was "oh no. Anitra is gonna LOVE this" 😂🫰🏼
It feels to me like Jimin and FACE Team selected all the best qualities of the 80’s in the music, dance moves, interactions between dancers, atmospheres, drama, costume, etc for Like Crazy and have managed to elevate them to SUCH A HIGHER LEVEL!

I feel you cause I'm obsessed with the song too. like crazy now is my favorite song in music industry and best choreo ever 👑🔥

Btw, besides the Tonight Show performance and interview there were also 2 short cute/funny skits that Jimin and Jimmy did (The Jimin Experience and Jimmy is a Jimin Superfan) that are on youtube. You can react to them or watch on your own - it's always your choice. I only mention this because you mentioned future reactions in the video.💜
I so excited to your reaction
Jiminiieeeeeeee😍💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜🔥
The first time I watched the MV I believe I was midway and my immediate thought was “omg Anitra is gonna be obsessed with this”🤣 I’m glad that your voice is recovering! Thank u for the reaction, is a totally different experience watching the videos with u, I always feel like im with my bestie and love how I can freak out with u. Sending u virtual hugs😘
🥰💜
I was waiting patiently I know your voice was not well but when I listen to this song I went crazy I am in love with this song so much and I knew you would love it 💜
I 100% agreed with everything you've said. This song is amazing. I was having ABBA vibes (and a teens if anyone knows of them), which I love.
But yes, great reaction. 💜💜💜💜
Knew this sound was up your alley. Hope your voice is better soon💜
I had a feeling you would love this one I know you like a 80s vibe.😊 The picture on his pants is a famous photographer Robert Michael Mapplethorpe definitely look him up.
Sometimes i think the english version changes the sound of it but I feel like this is done really good. It still works well.
The part where he was dancing with that one girl, It felt like she was mirroring him, It was simple but I like it
On the album listen I hope you can add" letter" it was a hidden song on the cd . When you listen to like crazy english on the cd at 6:13😭 Letter plays.
Funny that you mentioned Shadow, bcs actually LIKE CRAZY and INTERLUDE: SHADOW were directed by the same director..😁😁
Hi, i am back. Good reaction, ty. Glad u loved this song too. Loved Set Me Free pt.2. It's catchy. I love this one as well. He sounds so good. It's so catchy. Love the fit and visuals. Adore this 80s synth pop sound. So much hidden meaning in this. I was shocked by this MV. Glad u know about his performance of it on Jimmy Fallon. =0) His album is about his feeling about the pandemic. So i try to see that in the songs. Him singing that he wants to be in the lights to me he is saying he wants to be on stage. Reading armies theories and more details from what Jimin has shared about this song I get a better understanding of what he is trying to say. Jimin is also too sexy in this. Gah. Taemin!!! Yes, i was thinking the same thing but did not have the words. U and Jenny (another reactor but in UK) got great eye for the choreo. If Taemin does a dance challenge with Jimin to this I will die. God. Hugs. -NY USA 2019 Army💟

In the live dance a woman reflects Jimin's dance so I think she may be his Anima

FACE album is about pandemic.
Like Crazy movie: about the toll of long distance r/s..
Like Crazy poster: alone slumped at home in the dark, water gushing, caving in..
is it about covid forcing jimin to be apart from the ones he loves?😭

loved your reaction as always! to give you some context, Jimin did say the song was inspired by the movie but he also added that it is a song that expresses the hurt after a breakup and the emotion of the moment when you try to run away from reality to forget your wounds... so you can see that he's drinking in the MV, saying he'd rather be "lost in the lights" instead of facing his reality, saying that he doesn't want to be saved, doesn’t want to be awake from this dream where everything's fine and he isn't hurt. also, I'm not sure if you noticed that the camera focused on a girl that's walking directly at him while he also walks directly at her and the theory is that she's his reflection/another part of himself that he didn't want to FACE and she's also the one who grabbed him at the beggining of the MV with the muddy hand and you can notice that at the end his own hand is muddy cause he and his reflection are finally one. :) he's a true artist and a genius.

Jimin said that the song 'like crazy' is a synthpop and explained that "it's a song that expresses the emotion of the moment when you run away from reality to forget your wounds"
He also said that the movie "like crazy" inspired him
I didn't watch the movie but I hered that the movie has a sad and realistic ending so actually the song 'like crazy' is NOT meant to mean anything sensual but actually something sad...I think a lot of people will probably misunderstand the song
The reason why there are couples kissing and stuff is because the movie is about a couple and I think the voices at the beginning and at the end are from the actual movie.This is the video where Jimin explained it said that: th-cam.com/video/7_kZ8TI-pds/w-d-xo.html

I saw a theory that the girl is like a representation of the softer, more feminine parts of himself. Her jacket is similar to the one he wears for the hardware version, her muddied hand pulls him into the club and then their actions mirror each other. When they finally face each other, Jimin facing himself, she disappears and Jimin's hand is now muddied, so it's implied he's finally accepted her and they've merged into one Jimin. I don't think it's a secret that Jimin has struggled with his softer side and earlier tried to mask it with hyper-masculinity. This song and album also make me think he tried to handle it with alcohol. So glad he has the members and people to support him and that he's in a better place now, when it comes to accepting himself. Such a beautiful person inside and out, he deserves the best things!
Edit: After seeing the choreography, I feel this theory is all but confirmed. With Jimin and one of the female dancers mirroring each other, then when she goes behind him back-to-back, it's like him incorporating her into himself.

Written to show how he was feeling during the pandemic; knowing military enlistment would be breaking up the band sooner than later, and there's also a lot of Jung symbolism. Anima/animus - masculine/feminine the recognition and acceptance of your feminine/masculine side. That's all in this song and video as well. Thanks Knox as usual you show really good insight into BTS songs , music, words and flow. and I'm also loving 'Butterfly Effect'.

This song is so good! I do know that in an interview he was asked what dream he wanted to stay in forever in regards to this song and he said "It's BTS, frankly. I want to stay in this dream that is BTS for a long time." 😭 Keeping that in mind with the lyrics :
This will break me
This is gonna break me
No don't you wake me
I wanna stay in this dream, don't save me
Don't you try to save me
I need a way we
I need a way we can dream on
