Honestly, this song felt like BTS was softly (lmao it was hard af) slapping me to reality and then hugging me, telling me I'm not alone... and after the bs going on in my life at the time... their series made me discover their personalities, but this song was also decisive to make me stan.
@@nicole87913 yes of course, i mean they brought to my attention a song i didn't like the lyrics of with the way they performed it. They sang it and danced to it greatly
Hey, I noticed some music videos are missing from the list! Yes, you added every music video for title tracks correctly, but for every comeback (new album release) they also have Comeback Trailers, which are usually music videos for the Intro song of each album. Since the Wings comeback, they started doing actual music videos for these, featuring the member who is doing that intro (before that, the music videos for comeback trailers were animated, so nothing really to check out there, listening to the track in the album is enough). So make sure to add the following: In Wings era Comeback Trailer - Intro: Boy Meets Evil (J-Hope) In Love Yourself: Her Comeback Trailer - Intro: Serendipity (Jimin) Theme of Love Yourself: Wonder - Euphoria (led by Jungkook, featuring BTS) In Love Yourself: Tear Comeback Trailer - Intro: Singularity (V) In Love Yourself: Answer Comeback Trailer - Epiphany (Jin) In Map of the Soul: Persona Comeback Trailer - Intro: Persona (RM) In Map of the Soul: 7 Comeback Trailer - Interlude: Shadow (Suga) Comeback Trailer - Outro: Ego (J-Hope) Also, something most tracklists online don't show: some albums actually have Hidden Tracks, which are tracks only released on the physical CD. You can easily find lyric videos for these on TH-cam, but you won't find them if you listen to the album on Spotify, or any official streaming platform. Whether you want to add them to your album listenings or not, it's your choice! The ones I remember right now from memory are Sea (one of my favorite BTS songs personally), in Love Yourself: Her, and Path, in 2 Cool 4 Skool, their first project. P.S.: no, there isn't an album for Love Yourself: Wonder, that's just a concept, developed through that Euphoria video, that is part of the Love Yourself narrative
When you said "I know this was 7 years ago, but I feel like they're talking to me"... Uuuuu that hit hard. The moment I became an Army was this one long night that I was trying to control one of my recurrent anxiety attacks at the time. I found the lirycs for their song "Tomorrow", it was like 3am and I couldn't understand how these 7 boys from the other side of the world understood so well what I was going through. That song literally saved me that night, I cryed for hours, but it was such a relief after... I've been following them ever since, they've literally changed my life in so many ways. I will be forever greatfull for that. 💜
LOL. "Not as cringeworthy as I thought it was going to be" was literally me when I first saw the 'No More Dream' MV. Ok, my two cents. Since you seem both interested in lyrics and dance I recommend this order: - Album review w/lyrics - Music videos for that album - Choreography videos/Dance practices (for the songs on that album that have them) - Live performances (particularly of songs that don't have MVs but are great live) I just want to say: please pace yourself. 'Do your thang', like BTS say, and go at a pace that allows you to digest the music without getting overwhelmed. It is a lot of content and we can get enthusiastic and thorough, but don't let all this pressure you. Do you know how rare it is to find a reactor who's open-minded, intelligent, honest and funny? you're like a unicorn. Looking forward to your journey!
I told myself I wasn't gon get into reactors cuz aloe of em become annoying but omg if you aren't the most sweetest reactor. Like you tell what you think but you're just, so genuine? And hype? And you're actually looking into stuff?? Oh my gosh I'm adopting you. You're now my fave baby ARMY. I now feel proud😔
Yes! This - at least 1 through 3. You'll hate yourself if you don't watch the dance practices that are available, esp. since a lot of the music videos are relatively dance-free. Also, live performances give a fuller view of why they're so beloved.
They were grinding their teeth when they debuted. You see the fire in their eyes. I remember suga said before that their costume are non branded/ or just borrowed or the gifts from fans.
They were so small... they got 25K views on the first day for this mv. I'm sure many ARMYs (including me) will help you with the BTS journey. :) tbh you can do an album review with lyrics + mvs for each album, BUT if it's too much, cut it out into 2 parts. So it can be like this in your videos: - albums (with lyrics) + mvs - live performances - dance practice - (AND if u want) behind the scenes of the mvs - ☆ I want to ask for reviews for the rapline mixtapes, as well as the covers and songs from the singers in soundcloud, as well as some singles (?) ☆ lol if not, I'll just do a list to give it to u so u enjoy it on your own ♡ Imo you should also see their series and extra content but in your own time or if u want to react to it, create a Patreon. I'm sure many ARMYs would support you and u can do it for other artists' videos too! Since u could get copyrighted bcs BTS and Big Hit don't own the videos entirely. This could be the case with some live performances too, so be careful ! Ok rant over. Sorry for the long comment. Thanks for the reaction Landon 💜💜💜 good luck on your hectic month :)
There are "stage mix" videos where editors take several live performances for a song and mix and match. They usually select the best audio and then nice visuals to go with it. It's also a nice way to get live performances and reduce the chance of a copyright block.
Love you reaction 😂, and honestly loving that you’re digging into their lyrics because honestly that’s why they stand out a part from their performances. I honestly love seeing people fall into the hole and learn how amazing these boys are. I’m willing to wait to see how this all unfolds for you.
You should keep a tally for how many different times you hear them sing the “la la la la la” because they’re all different and catchy. Love watching you, as always 💜
You reacting to their older songs gave me life. Why are you so relatable??? lmaooooo, sis was caught in her feelings like a proud mom for the whole of this video, i can't, I'm gonna cry- Also, we be more scared when hearing gunshots in the song than from the military y'all, don't lie to me, you also stopped breathing for the whole of this video, imma die someday cause of these boys, honestly.
you put so much effort into your videos and i like that you didn't just immediately write off their fashion (although RM especially now is very embarrassed about his hair and they got crap at the time for their cheap chains/clothes bc their lable didn't have money) but i like that you brought up not knowing about korean fashion in 2013. so many reactors base everything automatically through the US or western lens and don't really mention cultural differences even being a thing except for the obvious language difference. And I know what you mean about some words standing out and sounding like english words....for so long i heard 'make money money' in this song and i know that's not the lyric lol. I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to try to be thorough but it can be quite overwhelming so go slow and i'm really hoping you keep enjoying yourself and don't start to feel burned out! i only found your channel today so i really appreciate you having a playlist!!! hope u have fun reacting!
LOVE your road map! the album then the mvs and then the live performances, such a great idea! And the format of this video, where you broke down the lyrics first! Love it, I'm so excited!
What an awesome reaction. BTW their early stuff is NOT cringe, it is incredible. Could any of you do this when you were teenagers? And the rap is next level.
I've never seen a reactor just be so organized and work so hard and taking our suggestions in stride! This so well prepped and I'm here for it, I can't wait to see your journey in this BTS Rabbit hole 💜💜
You had a great feeling for where a legendary dance break should come in! They DID indeed add one for live performances later, exactly there! * already excited for you to see it *
landon taking me down the memory lane and i love how you're listening to their first ever single 7 years later and immediately know it doesnt sound like the typical kpop song. also i laughed at 11:30 "little babies stepping off the school bus" so hard!
Omg I love you're breaking down the lyrics. What's amazing about them is they've always had this positive message from the very beginning. It's not because it's trendy or they're being cringey. They're not shallow, they haven't changed from debut til now.
I really love NO MORE DREAM but alot of people say I'm so happy that bts change but still a don't get it because bts still delivering amazing massage even back then and the song is so catchy. So I don't no way they say that I think is the fashion of the song I don't know but I'm really happy to hear that you love the fashion 💜💜 and us always love your reactions 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Hey guys! As I've done in my other videos, I posted my full, unedited reaction to the music video (without commentary) on twitter: bit.ly/2PZhFbS ALSO, please subscribe to be updated on all my videos! I would love to hit my goal of 10k so I can visit the TH-cam Space in Los Angeles (you need 10k to get in and I would love to learn from their classes on how to make my videos better for you guys! 💜)
Omg you dove into Fetus Bangtan! (I actually love a lot of their old songs) Don't worry, you find Bangtan when you need them the most. Just take it one day at a time. And we really like long reactions tbh. We like seeing people fall down the rabbit hole. Do you have twitter? So I can send you links. Ps Happy birthday Yoongi!!!
when you said "dance break" i thought of how the most lethal dance break they've ever done is the no more dream live performance dance break i mean, most lethal alongside mic drop's
I absolutely love you for this . And giving them and their life changing discography the respect it deserves. We will be with you on every step of this journey 🥺🥺💜🤣🤣
Also you mentioned how you love hip hop and grungy music so I'm adding some of their self produced and self written works 1. RM (namjoon) released his mixtape in 2015 called RM which has two singles Do you and Joke 2. Suga aka AGUSTD also released his mixtape in 2016 called AgustD in which there are two singles Give it to me, Agust D and also my personal fav The Last 4. Jhope in 2017 also released his mixtape called Hope world which has two singles called Daydream and Aireplane 5. In 2018 RM released his 2nd mixtape called Mono who's three singles are Forever Rain, Seoul, Moonchild 6. Taehyung released his song called 4 o clock in 2017, Scenery in 2018 and Winter Bear in 2019 7. Jimin released a song called Promise in 2018 8. Jin released a song called Tonight in 2019 9. Jungkook released a snippet of his new song called Decalcomaine in 2019 There are many more I havent added 😭 but for now I hope this sufficed Also when I say single I mean like a song for which there is an MV !
I personally would prefer for you to listen to the entire album first, then watch any music videos afterwards. Even though the music videos always have subtitles, it is much easier to pay attention to the lyrics without also having visuals, and BTS lyrics are often quite meaningful. Also I read through your list that was on screen and it is correct for the most part, only a few minor errors, except for one very big oversight. You didn't list any of their comeback trailers! I know it is called a "trailer" but it is actually just like a regular music video. These are for the album intro/solo songs like Boy Meets Evil, Singularity, etc. Another thing you may want to check out are the Wings short films, although that's mainly if you want to really get into the BU storyline. I'm excited to see where this goes and really happy that you have taken the time to do some proper research! If you have any questions or want some help clarifying the proper order of things or making sure there are no oversights feel free to ask! Armys are always ready to help. 💜
Awww, truly one of my fave songs so thank you so much for reacting to this. Btw, you're really invested because that's a very long list and I have to admire you for that, though what really gets me is that you are going to listen to the whole discography?! Gosh I'm so excited.
I'm excited to join you on your journey, especially because their early stuff is very overlooked. Your road map idea is brilliant and not something other reactors do. If done right it could become a favourite Army recommended guide for any new Armys to watch ;) You nice keep going!
I love this! Can’t wait for you to go through this journey. It’s gets better and better. You’ll see them evolve and grow and find their sound and look.
Hi fellow new ARMY (I fell hard in January:)) I'm not sure how to help you :/ there is so much! So excited to watch you go through it, maybe I'll follow along, I've only listened through a few of the albums. What you said about doing the album and then all the MVs, lives, that sounded like a good order, hope others can be more helpful with the best lives!
When I thought I couldn't love BTS anymore than I already do, seeing them fresh thru ur eyes only raises the bar. I really appreciate how u analyze the lyrics and really soak in the messages they're trying to convey. I'll ride along on ur journey! 💜
OMGGGG...i live for your sassiness...yassss! you should see how i smile at my computer watching your BTS videos. can't wait for all the bts videos reviews you will make. They have a tonne of videos!
i love your vid edit. instead of watching of lyric vid, this is new. i can focus on your reactions and you're funny.. you nice keep going! edit: love that you have a road map. you have a plan. im excited for this journey. i'll follow along with you..
I saw your BTS road map and it's great! But I just wanna tell you that every intro from every album has a music video! So you can put that in the mv section for every era too ^^. The first 4 intros are animations (beautiful and its literally an 'introduction' to the concept of that specific album), from WINGS the intros are actually truly music videos. And for their debut album 2 cool for skool they did a video called 'concept trailer' its really cool and has a crazy choreo. Oh and also a video called intro performance trailer before hyyh pt1 which is CRAZYY and has a really cool (shady) story behind
Oh my gosh! You are one of my most favorite reactors!! I only recently found your channel because of your first BTS reaction, but I already love your energy and how you approach new music!! Thank you for being such an amazing person and I can't wait to see what's next!
I'm so exited to see you explore more of their music and them in general! I think for music shows it would be a good idea to react to stage mixes, and for award shows maybe make a poll with the most suggested ones? I already commented this but i wouldn't recommend watching their usa interviews since theyre very repetitive and 9/10 times the interviewers are either extremely annoying or just rude and dont even bother to research about them, but if you really want to watch them i recommend funny compilation videos like bts being extra af in america by ftwseventeen, bts in america by squishy min yoongi and bts in america in a nutshell pt 2 by bangtansus, i dont know if they would suit your sense of humor but theyre a good way to see a bit of their personalities, also a good guide that focuses on their personalities, is funny without being over edited and is actually quite informative is a guide to bts by sunshine bangtan!
I love your reaction because you understood the assignment, lmao. You said that you came from a side of town where you’re never sure if it’s fireworks or something else. BTS comes from that urban background. They know what it was like, and they know how the masses feel. Their music is true hip-hop.
Sadly when they first came out they were made fun of, their names, their style, everyone was poking fun of them. But I think there were some fans who did like the hip hop vibes??? But ya...
it's true their lyrics are hella deep and when you read it it's like those are attacking you , you can relate to the lyrics so much and that's why many youth are attached to them bc they spit facts and truths
i've been following your journey with bts since you reacted to mots: 7, and honestly, i love that you take your time to actually look into the lyrics and just seem to genuinely like them. it's so refreshing to see someone actually willing to get to know their art! i'm usually not one to subscribe to reaction channels, but you definitely deserve more subs! as for the future reactions/reviews, i really like the idea of listening to the whole album + lyrics in one video and mvs/performances/etc in another. although, whichever way you decide to do it, as long as it's chronological, i'm sure it will be great! thank you for doing this!!
“They has some cgi money” 😭😭😭 that shit hurts 💀 they were like.....SUPER poor, all their “designer” stuff was fake and they got made fun of for it 🥺🥺🥺 the company was on the verge of bankruptcy at one point :( Edit: also about the ab thing, jimin became sort of known for his abs because of this, there was a lot of pressure for him to keep them and to be this masculine dude with abs and “sex appeal” as you said, it was really bad for him, like really bad, now though he assures is that he’s eating well and is happy and really loves who he is for everything that he truly is so I’m super happy for that, but yea whenever I see the shirt life move it just makes me remember 🥺
So excited for this journey with you! I came in on Dope and then just bounced all over the back catalog. I was a bit confused (theories! crack vids! compilations!) until I put everything in order and started from the beginning. You are doing this right and I am here for it. Let's do it, Landon!
OMG very important. For the WINGS era you miss a really BIG important part in the map you made >.< Before you start to react to WINGS you have to watch 7 video, 'WINGS short films'. Those are short films for each members which introduce you to their solo songs and album overall. Plus it shows you more storyline from the BU universe. I'm sure someone told you already about bts's mvs being connected and having a storyline. And it start in hyyh pt1 with I need U, and it's still going now in 2020 🙈🙈 its a lot I know. But those videos are really short but super aesthetic and beautiful. I'm sure you will enjoy them a lot
If you’re looking for live performances definitely check out their MAMA and MMA performances. They’re the end of the year award shows in Asia and they’re MASSIVE. And of course BTS does amazing, my favorite ones are from 2018 and 2019 💜
Two things, this song has an EPIC dance break. See a live performance. Two, your dark soul need to see Blood Sweat and Tears. Give yourself a gift, and watch it out of order. You can't wait anymore to have this in your life!
love your reactions, excited for the road map :)) the best lyric translations are usually on twitter usually with explanations (agirlinthepark and doyou_bangtan have the best!) if you want better translations :)
I loooove how you're approaching BTS and I can't wait to see more!! Thank you taking such an in-depth, well thought out look. You're seriously one of my favorite new channels! 💜
ive watched reactors of bts and ive known how to distinguish the clout chasers to genuine people. from you, its very entertaining to watch you go down this rabbit hole because it reminds me a lot of how i got into bts too! youre very sincere and i subscribed to you for this
I love the way you edit your videos. It's very entertaining to watch your reactions. Thank you for spending so much time researching their discography and organizing a timeline. I think it would be good if you react to the lyrics of the album first and then the associated videos.
well, well, well, youve been busy! i love it when a person makes a research or study something theyre really really interested in. BTS makes you think. all your senses wil be blessed! being an ARMY is the best thing ever (jhope). make new friends too. lets all enjoy BTS blackhole. 💜
I love that you're taking the time to break down and understand their message from the beginning! Don't worry about how you format it too much because we will watch it all. I really appreciate how much you care and are willing to learn about them. Can't wait for your next reaction! Keep up the good work!
young bts asked us what our dream was But at gunpoint:)) I honestly love their earlier albums, it’s amazing to see how people change, their lyrics were always top notch even then, they were really honest and sincere with us from the beginning They sometimes cringe when they see their earlier fashion but they are unapologetic about their music, it’s their life and their development and I adore them for the courage to be so vulnerable
There is SO MUCH to watch and react to. I'd say that the priority for reactions would be the MVs, in order of release. You can plug them in however you want. Remember, though, that when we experience a comeback, I think most of us watch the corresponding MV before we listen to the album. As such, the MVs are a great introduction to each era. Just be sure to include the so-called "Trailers" (aka full-on music videos). If you have to choose what to react to on camera for time reasons, prioritize MVs. Music videos have a LOT to unpack, so those frankly give you plenty of material and plenty to think about. That said... For "dance practices" (aka full-on amazing dancing, but in their practice room): watch the Halloween ones. The "War of Hormone" dance practice is particularly entertaining. I know you're a dancer, so you'll probably want to watch more dance practices. If so, I'd say prioritize the ones that don't have a lot of dance already shown in a music video. At least for reaction purposes. (IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE for your own edification: people post dance tutorials for BTS songs. The also post mirrored dance practices-if you watch those at 25% and 50% speed, you can follow along and learn the dances, with lots of practice. Just thought you might find this information useful. I sure did.) For performances: awards shows are obviously great. When you get to "Love Yourself: Answer," see if someone can link you to a good "Seesaw" performance (that's one of Suga's solos). I personally don't find the performance reactions as interesting to watch, maybe because by that time the reactor has already reacted to the song(s) multiple times in other contexts. But I also don't love watching reactions to compilation videos, so maybe don't listen to me and my unpopular opinions. (I get irritated with compilation videos because I WANT TO WATCH THE SOURCE MATERIAL, AND THE COMPILERS DON'T LIST SOURCES. I like context, people. Context. T_T ) It's fine if you don't show us your entire BTS journey. We love to be a part of what you share, but if you show us EVERY PART, then you have to edit every part, and you won't get through the entire corpus until after the next comeback. It's okay to just enjoy some of it on your own, too-maybe shout out to the community "yo, I watched ___, and it was so fun!" and call it good. :)
You're probably the first reactor that I instantly took a liking and instantly subscribed... You're gonna be so fun to hang out with 💜💜💜... Will be with you through this journey...
You are definitely becoming my favourite new BTS reactor. Love your personality and the enthusiasm in each video. BTS contents are abundance and I hope that you will take a break here and there so that you wont be overwhelm by the ARMYs requests because we are always happy to get any kind of contents related to our beloved boys. I think your list showed how dedicated you are in taking this journey, I'm all for it. All the best from me. Thank you so much for giving that chance to listen to BTS. Very much appreciated! :)
I think i,ve told you this before but you are mi favorite BTS reactor on YT! you are so genuine, funny and entertaining but also talk serious when needed. Im sooooo glad you are starting this journey because as a baby army myself (since November last year) im still discovering things music wise and about their personalities so im ready to do it along with you. Also I'm a Suga stan as well! see? we have so much in common xD PS: i think i remember you saying you live in LA? i dont know if you know this but they are giving 3 concerts at the Rose Bowl in may, the 2 first shows are sold out but they just opened another date for may 5th (im going to this one and im exiceted AF) and i think there's still tickets available if you want to experience their talent live. PS 2: HAPPY BDAY MIN YOONGI!!!!!
Thank you Landon for being open and giving BTS a chance. I feel like your map amd ideas are fine. You're actually organized unlike us back then when we discovered the boys, we were all ober the place. So much content. So little time. Almost all of us lost a full month of sleep trying to catch up with all the contents. And tbh, me a fan from 2017 still hasn't finished consuming every single BTS content😆 but don't get pressured and enjoy the ride that would change your life 💜
LMAOOO ARMYs are the only ones who can say gunshots give us a homely feeling 💜💜😂
💀💀💀
WAIT TIL HE HEARS WE ARE BULLETPROOF 2 😭💜
Angela Sealana OMG YASS 😭
You have no idea how homely I felt with UGH! gunshots. I even got a little emotional before I started bopping to the song lol
Jimin's gucci sweater gifted by Taehyung same! I honestly was in tears for the whole album but UGH! hits different. Brings the nostalgia!!!!! 💜
Honestly, this song felt like BTS was softly (lmao it was hard af) slapping me to reality and then hugging me, telling me I'm not alone... and after the bs going on in my life at the time... their series made me discover their personalities, but this song was also decisive to make me stan.
I can't wait to discover them all 😍😍
@@LandonMark and I can't wait to see u fall into the endless BTS rabbit hole even more 😂😂💜
Perfect Man isn’t a BTS song, but their cover literally gives me life.
The performance, not really the lyrics but yeah
A cover doesn’t mean you change the lyrics. I like the way their voices sound and how they sang it, too.
@@nicole87913 yes of course, i mean they brought to my attention a song i didn't like the lyrics of with the way they performed it. They sang it and danced to it greatly
Spoiler free, so read me pls Ohh I didn’t understand what you meant.
@@nicole87913 it's cool, i didnt elaborate ;)
This song was ignored by almost everyone, it's really sad. BTW: straight up 2013 korean fashion - this style was the trend in boy groups in kpop
Hey, I noticed some music videos are missing from the list! Yes, you added every music video for title tracks correctly, but for every comeback (new album release) they also have Comeback Trailers, which are usually music videos for the Intro song of each album. Since the Wings comeback, they started doing actual music videos for these, featuring the member who is doing that intro (before that, the music videos for comeback trailers were animated, so nothing really to check out there, listening to the track in the album is enough).
So make sure to add the following:
In Wings era
Comeback Trailer - Intro: Boy Meets Evil (J-Hope)
In Love Yourself: Her
Comeback Trailer - Intro: Serendipity (Jimin)
Theme of Love Yourself: Wonder - Euphoria (led by Jungkook, featuring BTS)
In Love Yourself: Tear
Comeback Trailer - Intro: Singularity (V)
In Love Yourself: Answer
Comeback Trailer - Epiphany (Jin)
In Map of the Soul: Persona
Comeback Trailer - Intro: Persona (RM)
In Map of the Soul: 7
Comeback Trailer - Interlude: Shadow (Suga)
Comeback Trailer - Outro: Ego (J-Hope)
Also, something most tracklists online don't show: some albums actually have Hidden Tracks, which are tracks only released on the physical CD. You can easily find lyric videos for these on TH-cam, but you won't find them if you listen to the album on Spotify, or any official streaming platform. Whether you want to add them to your album listenings or not, it's your choice!
The ones I remember right now from memory are Sea (one of my favorite BTS songs personally), in Love Yourself: Her, and Path, in 2 Cool 4 Skool, their first project.
P.S.: no, there isn't an album for Love Yourself: Wonder, that's just a concept, developed through that Euphoria video, that is part of the Love Yourself narrative
I was about to say this
There’s also the animated intro videos like for example, for ”Nevermind”
I hope he fixes it!
Yes...I hope he adds them because they are my favourites 😍
Their dance practice to this song was really good too
I'll add it to the list!
@@LandonMark and also LIVE PERFORMANCE
When you said "I know this was 7 years ago, but I feel like they're talking to me"... Uuuuu that hit hard. The moment I became an Army was this one long night that I was trying to control one of my recurrent anxiety attacks at the time. I found the lirycs for their song "Tomorrow", it was like 3am and I couldn't understand how these 7 boys from the other side of the world understood so well what I was going through. That song literally saved me that night, I cryed for hours, but it was such a relief after... I've been following them ever since, they've literally changed my life in so many ways. I will be forever greatfull for that. 💜
LOL. "Not as cringeworthy as I thought it was going to be" was literally me when I first saw the 'No More Dream' MV.
Ok, my two cents. Since you seem both interested in lyrics and dance I recommend this order:
- Album review w/lyrics
- Music videos for that album
- Choreography videos/Dance practices (for the songs on that album that have them)
- Live performances (particularly of songs that don't have MVs but are great live)
I just want to say: please pace yourself. 'Do your thang', like BTS say, and go at a pace that allows you to digest the music without getting overwhelmed. It is a lot of content and we can get enthusiastic and thorough, but don't let all this pressure you. Do you know how rare it is to find a reactor who's open-minded, intelligent, honest and funny? you're like a unicorn.
Looking forward to your journey!
I can’t wait to go on this journey of you seeing them evolve with you!!!! Welcome to not having a life baby ARMY ♥️💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
Thank yall for being so welcoming!
Landon Mark this is a phrase we say between ARMYs and BTS to say we love each other 👉🏻 i purple u 💜💜And don’t ever forget! ARMY = FAMILY
I told myself I wasn't gon get into reactors cuz aloe of em become annoying but omg if you aren't the most sweetest reactor. Like you tell what you think but you're just, so genuine? And hype? And you're actually looking into stuff?? Oh my gosh I'm adopting you. You're now my fave baby ARMY. I now feel proud😔
Yeah I really like his personality
1- MV / LYRICS
2- DANCE PRACTICE
3- LIVE PERFORMANCE
4- Album review. ( You need to listen to all the songs with lyrics )
🙌
Yes! This - at least 1 through 3. You'll hate yourself if you don't watch the dance practices that are available, esp. since a lot of the music videos are relatively dance-free. Also, live performances give a fuller view of why they're so beloved.
YES PLEASE
5 - Reality show appearances / RunBTS / Bon Voyage :D
I think either dance practice or live performance. And between those two the live ones are greater
Babe you are connecting the dots!!
Slowly but surely! 😩
They were grinding their teeth when they debuted. You see the fire in their eyes. I remember suga said before that their costume are non branded/ or just borrowed or the gifts from fans.
It’s just the eyeliner 😉
ChoiSomnia Blackrose one of my favorite quotes! 🤣🤣🤣
"it's just the eyeliner"
i just clicked on your channel to see this was uploaded 7 seconds ago, nice 😎
Yesssss perfect timing 😎
m-e-a-n-t 2b
They were so small... they got 25K views on the first day for this mv.
I'm sure many ARMYs (including me) will help you with the BTS journey. :) tbh you can do an album review with lyrics + mvs for each album, BUT if it's too much, cut it out into 2 parts.
So it can be like this in your videos:
- albums (with lyrics) + mvs
- live performances
- dance practice
- (AND if u want) behind the scenes of the mvs
- ☆ I want to ask for reviews for the rapline mixtapes, as well as the covers and songs from the singers in soundcloud, as well as some singles (?) ☆ lol if not, I'll just do a list to give it to u so u enjoy it on your own ♡
Imo you should also see their series and extra content but in your own time or if u want to react to it, create a Patreon. I'm sure many ARMYs would support you and u can do it for other artists' videos too! Since u could get copyrighted bcs BTS and Big Hit don't own the videos entirely. This could be the case with some live performances too, so be careful !
Ok rant over. Sorry for the long comment. Thanks for the reaction Landon 💜💜💜 good luck on your hectic month :)
Hell yeah, No More Dream still bops
Boy, you NEED to watch their crack compilations. It's not a want, a suggestion, or a hint, it's a NEED.
Omg! BTS road map?? I'm not ready for this 🥵 you're the best!!!💜💜💜
OMG YOURE ONE OF THE BEST REACTOR TO BTS EVER THIS IS WHAT WE CALLED REACTION NOT WACTHING
There are "stage mix" videos where editors take several live performances for a song and mix and match. They usually select the best audio and then nice visuals to go with it. It's also a nice way to get live performances and reduce the chance of a copyright block.
LMAOOOO…!!! I love this song!!! They came in with a BANGGG..!!! Landon, you are such a mood!!! Love it!! Love your roadmap too!!
Love you reaction 😂, and honestly loving that you’re digging into their lyrics because honestly that’s why they stand out a part from their performances. I honestly love seeing people fall into the hole and learn how amazing these boys are. I’m willing to wait to see how this all unfolds for you.
You should keep a tally for how many different times you hear them sing the “la la la la la” because they’re all different and catchy. Love watching you, as always 💜
*don't forget the Hidden Tracks:*
-Skit: On The Start line
-Song: Road/Path
And Sea!
the way ur so dedicated to fully get into the boys 😢😢
You reacting to their older songs gave me life. Why are you so relatable??? lmaooooo,
sis was caught in her feelings like a proud mom for the whole of this video, i can't, I'm gonna cry-
Also, we be more scared when hearing gunshots in the song than from the military y'all, don't lie to me, you also stopped breathing for the whole of this video, imma die someday cause of these boys, honestly.
you put so much effort into your videos and i like that you didn't just immediately write off their fashion (although RM especially now is very embarrassed about his hair and they got crap at the time for their cheap chains/clothes bc their lable didn't have money) but i like that you brought up not knowing about korean fashion in 2013. so many reactors base everything automatically through the US or western lens and don't really mention cultural differences even being a thing except for the obvious language difference. And I know what you mean about some words standing out and sounding like english words....for so long i heard 'make money money' in this song and i know that's not the lyric lol. I appreciate your enthusiasm and willingness to try to be thorough but it can be quite overwhelming so go slow and i'm really hoping you keep enjoying yourself and don't start to feel burned out! i only found your channel today so i really appreciate you having a playlist!!! hope u have fun reacting!
It’s so entertaining watching your reactions. Love it! keep it up👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you!
Every time you mention your dark soul you got me wheezing😂😂
LOVE your road map! the album then the mvs and then the live performances, such a great idea! And the format of this video, where you broke down the lyrics first! Love it, I'm so excited!
What an awesome reaction. BTW their early stuff is NOT cringe, it is incredible. Could any of you do this when you were teenagers? And the rap is next level.
This is so pure 😭💜
I've never seen a reactor just be so organized and work so hard and taking our suggestions in stride! This so well prepped and I'm here for it, I can't wait to see your journey in this BTS Rabbit hole 💜💜
You had a great feeling for where a legendary dance break should come in!
They DID indeed add one for live performances later, exactly there!
* already excited for you to see it *
landon taking me down the memory lane and i love how you're listening to their first ever single 7 years later and immediately know it doesnt sound like the typical kpop song. also i laughed at 11:30 "little babies stepping off the school bus" so hard!
Omg I love you're breaking down the lyrics. What's amazing about them is they've always had this positive message from the very beginning. It's not because it's trendy or they're being cringey. They're not shallow, they haven't changed from debut til now.
I really love NO MORE DREAM but alot of people say I'm so happy that bts change but still a don't get it because bts still delivering amazing massage even back then and the song is so catchy. So I don't no way they say that I think is the fashion of the song I don't know but I'm really happy to hear that you love the fashion 💜💜 and us always love your reactions 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
SOPE-ME - Otsukare Song is something i think youll get a kick out of lol its jhope and suga and they are sooo cute!
OMFG Yes
Hey guys! As I've done in my other videos, I posted my full, unedited reaction to the music video (without commentary) on twitter: bit.ly/2PZhFbS
ALSO, please subscribe to be updated on all my videos! I would love to hit my goal of 10k so I can visit the TH-cam Space in Los Angeles (you need 10k to get in and I would love to learn from their classes on how to make my videos better for you guys! 💜)
Omg you dove into Fetus Bangtan! (I actually love a lot of their old songs) Don't worry, you find Bangtan when you need them the most.
Just take it one day at a time. And we really like long reactions tbh. We like seeing people fall down the rabbit hole. Do you have twitter? So I can send you links.
Ps Happy birthday Yoongi!!!
The dedication! The love the love the love
when you said "dance break" i thought of how the most lethal dance break they've ever done is the no more dream live performance dance break
i mean, most lethal alongside mic drop's
Wow someone who actually reacts! I really like that you listened to the song and broke down the lyrics before watching the video.
BOY CAME THRU WITH THE RESEARCHHH
I absolutely love you for this . And giving them and their life changing discography the respect it deserves. We will be with you on every step of this journey 🥺🥺💜🤣🤣
7 years and it's still a FREAKIN BOP!!!!!!!!
Also you mentioned how you love hip hop and grungy music so I'm adding some of their self produced and self written works
1. RM (namjoon) released his mixtape in 2015 called RM which has two singles Do you and Joke
2. Suga aka AGUSTD also released his mixtape in 2016 called AgustD in which there are two singles Give it to me, Agust D and also my personal fav The Last
4. Jhope in 2017 also released his mixtape called Hope world which has two singles called Daydream and Aireplane
5. In 2018 RM released his 2nd mixtape called Mono who's three singles are Forever Rain, Seoul, Moonchild
6. Taehyung released his song called 4 o clock in 2017, Scenery in 2018 and Winter Bear in 2019
7. Jimin released a song called Promise in 2018
8. Jin released a song called Tonight in 2019
9. Jungkook released a snippet of his new song called Decalcomaine in 2019
There are many more I havent added 😭 but for now I hope this sufficed
Also when I say single I mean like a song for which there is an MV !
talk about young, jungkook wasn't even 16 yet when they released this
I really appreciate the fact how you went over the lyrics first. So many people overlook the importance of them
I personally would prefer for you to listen to the entire album first, then watch any music videos afterwards. Even though the music videos always have subtitles, it is much easier to pay attention to the lyrics without also having visuals, and BTS lyrics are often quite meaningful.
Also I read through your list that was on screen and it is correct for the most part, only a few minor errors, except for one very big oversight. You didn't list any of their comeback trailers! I know it is called a "trailer" but it is actually just like a regular music video. These are for the album intro/solo songs like Boy Meets Evil, Singularity, etc. Another thing you may want to check out are the Wings short films, although that's mainly if you want to really get into the BU storyline.
I'm excited to see where this goes and really happy that you have taken the time to do some proper research! If you have any questions or want some help clarifying the proper order of things or making sure there are no oversights feel free to ask! Armys are always ready to help. 💜
I adore how dedicated you already are to this
Awww, truly one of my fave songs so thank you so much for reacting to this. Btw, you're really invested because that's a very long list and I have to admire you for that, though what really gets me is that you are going to listen to the whole discography?! Gosh I'm so excited.
I'm excited to join you on your journey, especially because their early stuff is very overlooked. Your road map idea is brilliant and not something other reactors do. If done right it could become a favourite Army recommended guide for any new Armys to watch ;)
You nice keep going!
You did research!!!
I love you already 💜💜💜
I love this! Can’t wait for you to go through this journey. It’s gets better and better. You’ll see them evolve and grow and find their sound and look.
Hi fellow new ARMY (I fell hard in January:)) I'm not sure how to help you :/ there is so much! So excited to watch you go through it, maybe I'll follow along, I've only listened through a few of the albums. What you said about doing the album and then all the MVs, lives, that sounded like a good order, hope others can be more helpful with the best lives!
When I thought I couldn't love BTS anymore than I already do, seeing them fresh thru ur eyes only raises the bar. I really appreciate how u analyze the lyrics and really soak in the messages they're trying to convey. I'll ride along on ur journey! 💜
OMGGGG...i live for your sassiness...yassss! you should see how i smile at my computer watching your BTS videos. can't wait for all the bts videos reviews you will make. They have a tonne of videos!
i love your vid edit. instead of watching of lyric vid, this is new. i can focus on your reactions and you're funny.. you nice keep going!
edit: love that you have a road map. you have a plan. im excited for this journey. i'll follow along with you..
I saw your BTS road map and it's great! But I just wanna tell you that every intro from every album has a music video! So you can put that in the mv section for every era too ^^. The first 4 intros are animations (beautiful and its literally an 'introduction' to the concept of that specific album), from WINGS the intros are actually truly music videos. And for their debut album 2 cool for skool they did a video called 'concept trailer' its really cool and has a crazy choreo. Oh and also a video called intro performance trailer before hyyh pt1 which is CRAZYY and has a really cool (shady) story behind
yesss im so excited
Oh my gosh! You are one of my most favorite reactors!! I only recently found your channel because of your first BTS reaction, but I already love your energy and how you approach new music!! Thank you for being such an amazing person and I can't wait to see what's next!
"Lowkey kind of comical" the truth 🤣
I'm so exited to see you explore more of their music and them in general! I think for music shows it would be a good idea to react to stage mixes, and for award shows maybe make a poll with the most suggested ones? I already commented this but i wouldn't recommend watching their usa interviews since theyre very repetitive and 9/10 times the interviewers are either extremely annoying or just rude and dont even bother to research about them, but if you really want to watch them i recommend funny compilation videos like bts being extra af in america by ftwseventeen, bts in america by squishy min yoongi and bts in america in a nutshell pt 2 by bangtansus, i dont know if they would suit your sense of humor but theyre a good way to see a bit of their personalities, also a good guide that focuses on their personalities, is funny without being over edited and is actually quite informative is a guide to bts by sunshine bangtan!
I love your reaction because you understood the assignment, lmao. You said that you came from a side of town where you’re never sure if it’s fireworks or something else. BTS comes from that urban background. They know what it was like, and they know how the masses feel. Their music is true hip-hop.
Sadly when they first came out they were made fun of, their names, their style, everyone was poking fun of them. But I think there were some fans who did like the hip hop vibes??? But ya...
it's true their lyrics are hella deep and when you read it it's like those are attacking you , you can relate to the lyrics so much and that's why many youth are attached to them bc they spit facts and truths
omggg thank you for also paying attention to lyrics first 💪🏼👏🏼 love ur reaction!
i've been following your journey with bts since you reacted to mots: 7, and honestly, i love that you take your time to actually look into the lyrics and just seem to genuinely like them. it's so refreshing to see someone actually willing to get to know their art! i'm usually not one to subscribe to reaction channels, but you definitely deserve more subs!
as for the future reactions/reviews, i really like the idea of listening to the whole album + lyrics in one video and mvs/performances/etc in another. although, whichever way you decide to do it, as long as it's chronological, i'm sure it will be great! thank you for doing this!!
“They has some cgi money” 😭😭😭 that shit hurts 💀 they were like.....SUPER poor, all their “designer” stuff was fake and they got made fun of for it 🥺🥺🥺 the company was on the verge of bankruptcy at one point :(
Edit: also about the ab thing, jimin became sort of known for his abs because of this, there was a lot of pressure for him to keep them and to be this masculine dude with abs and “sex appeal” as you said, it was really bad for him, like really bad, now though he assures is that he’s eating well and is happy and really loves who he is for everything that he truly is so I’m super happy for that, but yea whenever I see the shirt life move it just makes me remember 🥺
Ok. So that's it. BTS ROAD MAP!!? I'm subscribing right now.
Thank you.
So excited for this journey with you! I came in on Dope and then just bounced all over the back catalog. I was a bit confused (theories! crack vids! compilations!) until I put everything in order and started from the beginning. You are doing this right and I am here for it. Let's do it, Landon!
OMG very important. For the WINGS era you miss a really BIG important part in the map you made >.< Before you start to react to WINGS you have to watch 7 video, 'WINGS short films'. Those are short films for each members which introduce you to their solo songs and album overall. Plus it shows you more storyline from the BU universe. I'm sure someone told you already about bts's mvs being connected and having a storyline. And it start in hyyh pt1 with I need U, and it's still going now in 2020 🙈🙈 its a lot I know. But those videos are really short but super aesthetic and beautiful. I'm sure you will enjoy them a lot
If you’re looking for live performances definitely check out their MAMA and MMA performances. They’re the end of the year award shows in Asia and they’re MASSIVE. And of course BTS does amazing, my favorite ones are from 2018 and 2019 💜
Two things, this song has an EPIC dance break. See a live performance.
Two, your dark soul need to see Blood Sweat and Tears. Give yourself a gift, and watch it out of order. You can't wait anymore to have this in your life!
love your reactions, excited for the road map :)) the best lyric translations are usually on twitter usually with explanations (agirlinthepark and doyou_bangtan have the best!) if you want better translations :)
You 1000% need to see their Perfect Man cover! Jimin's fancam for it is a must see 👀👌
i'M SO GLAD I CLICKED THE LITTLE BELL
I loooove how you're approaching BTS and I can't wait to see more!! Thank you taking such an in-depth, well thought out look. You're seriously one of my favorite new channels! 💜
ive watched reactors of bts and ive known how to distinguish the clout chasers to genuine people. from you, its very entertaining to watch you go down this rabbit hole because it reminds me a lot of how i got into bts too! youre very sincere and i subscribed to you for this
I love the way you edit your videos. It's very entertaining to watch your reactions. Thank you for spending so much time researching their discography and organizing a timeline. I think it would be good if you react to the lyrics of the album first and then the associated videos.
OMG YOUR ROADMAP IS GOING TO CREATE SO MANY NEW BABY ARMYS
well, well, well, youve been busy! i love it when a person makes a research or study something theyre really really interested in. BTS makes you think. all your senses wil be blessed! being an ARMY is the best thing ever (jhope). make new friends too. lets all enjoy BTS blackhole. 💜
I love that you're taking the time to break down and understand their message from the beginning! Don't worry about how you format it too much because we will watch it all. I really appreciate how much you care and are willing to learn about them. Can't wait for your next reaction! Keep up the good work!
young bts asked us what our dream was But at gunpoint:))
I honestly love their earlier albums, it’s amazing to see how people change, their lyrics were always top notch even then, they were really honest and sincere with us from the beginning
They sometimes cringe when they see their earlier fashion but they are unapologetic about their music, it’s their life and their development and I adore them for the courage to be so vulnerable
There is SO MUCH to watch and react to. I'd say that the priority for reactions would be the MVs, in order of release. You can plug them in however you want. Remember, though, that when we experience a comeback, I think most of us watch the corresponding MV before we listen to the album. As such, the MVs are a great introduction to each era. Just be sure to include the so-called "Trailers" (aka full-on music videos). If you have to choose what to react to on camera for time reasons, prioritize MVs.
Music videos have a LOT to unpack, so those frankly give you plenty of material and plenty to think about. That said...
For "dance practices" (aka full-on amazing dancing, but in their practice room): watch the Halloween ones. The "War of Hormone" dance practice is particularly entertaining.
I know you're a dancer, so you'll probably want to watch more dance practices. If so, I'd say prioritize the ones that don't have a lot of dance already shown in a music video. At least for reaction purposes.
(IMPORTANT SIDE NOTE for your own edification: people post dance tutorials for BTS songs. The also post mirrored dance practices-if you watch those at 25% and 50% speed, you can follow along and learn the dances, with lots of practice. Just thought you might find this information useful. I sure did.)
For performances: awards shows are obviously great. When you get to "Love Yourself: Answer," see if someone can link you to a good "Seesaw" performance (that's one of Suga's solos).
I personally don't find the performance reactions as interesting to watch, maybe because by that time the reactor has already reacted to the song(s) multiple times in other contexts. But I also don't love watching reactions to compilation videos, so maybe don't listen to me and my unpopular opinions. (I get irritated with compilation videos because I WANT TO WATCH THE SOURCE MATERIAL, AND THE COMPILERS DON'T LIST SOURCES. I like context, people. Context. T_T )
It's fine if you don't show us your entire BTS journey. We love to be a part of what you share, but if you show us EVERY PART, then you have to edit every part, and you won't get through the entire corpus until after the next comeback. It's okay to just enjoy some of it on your own, too-maybe shout out to the community "yo, I watched ___, and it was so fun!" and call it good. :)
I don’t know you’d handle their live performances like the MAMA THEY ARE FREAKING AMAZING LIVE 😭😭
I'm so excited to watch your BTS journey 💜💜💜
Gosh I love how actually invested you are💜
You're probably the first reactor that I instantly took a liking and instantly subscribed... You're gonna be so fun to hang out with 💜💜💜... Will be with you through this journey...
You are definitely becoming my favourite new BTS reactor. Love your personality and the enthusiasm in each video. BTS contents are abundance and I hope that you will take a break here and there so that you wont be overwhelm by the ARMYs requests because we are always happy to get any kind of contents related to our beloved boys. I think your list showed how dedicated you are in taking this journey, I'm all for it. All the best from me. Thank you so much for giving that chance to listen to BTS. Very much appreciated! :)
I loved this hahaha also thank you for also focusing on the lyrics that's so important in our BTS universe
I’m so excited to see your BTS reactions! It’s going to be so fun💜!!!
my god you are so funny I crack with your reactions and your comments and makes me hype over and over about bts, this is gold
I appreciate how you're so thorough and systematic about all these. Keep it up!
I think i,ve told you this before but you are mi favorite BTS reactor on YT! you are so genuine, funny and entertaining but also talk serious when needed. Im sooooo glad you are starting this journey because as a baby army myself (since November last year) im still discovering things music wise and about their personalities so im ready to do it along with you. Also I'm a Suga stan as well! see? we have so much in common xD
PS: i think i remember you saying you live in LA? i dont know if you know this but they are giving 3 concerts at the Rose Bowl in may, the 2 first shows are sold out but they just opened another date for may 5th (im going to this one and im exiceted AF) and i think there's still tickets available if you want to experience their talent live.
PS 2: HAPPY BDAY MIN YOONGI!!!!!
I will literally watch every single video you upload about BTS
Loved your reaction! I am excited to watch your journey!
AHH! CAN’T WAIT!!! I love your reactions so much! You’re really funny and relatable! We purple U💜😂💜🥺👍
Thank you Landon for being open and giving BTS a chance. I feel like your map amd ideas are fine. You're actually organized unlike us back then when we discovered the boys, we were all ober the place. So much content. So little time. Almost all of us lost a full month of sleep trying to catch up with all the contents. And tbh, me a fan from 2017 still hasn't finished consuming every single BTS content😆 but don't get pressured and enjoy the ride that would change your life 💜
