I'm pretty sure this song was inspired by the story of Little Mermaid, that's why they mention "disappear into foam" (the mermaid would disappear into foam if she doesn't kill the prince) "burn me with that knife" (the knife that mermaid try to use to kill the prince). But in this song, it's actually the prince's point of view of that story. I just love this song's lyrics, sad but beautiful.
I was mesmerized by the influence of this song. I was just a fan of EXO I really liked Wolf when it first came out, I felt the difference among other artists, anyways, XOXO album's first part was just released that time and I was enjoying the album, one day around that time my sister showed me a clip of Little Mermaid where Baby Don't Cry was on the background and it was at that moment I felt an emotion that I've never felt before and then Growl came out and baaam I'm a senior EXO-L till now 😂❤
The vocals in this song are PHENOMENAL! Glad that you noticed all those layers and varieties of “cry”. The cries in their voices while singing this word, you can’t help but feel the emotion This song has live stages too! I hope you react to them well
It's a song inspired by the fairytale of The Little Mermaid but it was from the man/prince's P.O.V. I think it's a heartbreaking love song that used the story of the little mermaid as a referance. The lyrics mentioned something about exchanging the fates. She was supposed to 'kill' him but she could not bear to so she decided to let go but the plot twist is -- he knew everything and in order to protect her, he would be the one to sacrifice himself.
EXO is very great at singing with such emotions, especially with songs like this, then add the backstory to it which was inspired by the original story of the little mermaid (but in the prince's pov) it hits 100× more. And then you have the live versions having Kai & Sehun interpreting in dance with such emotional facial expressions it's beautiful impossible not to cry most of the time. Thanks for for another EXO reaction. 🧡🧡🧡
Love the dance by Kai and Sehun that is linked to this in the live renditions. I can just about hold back the emotions when listening to the song, especially with all the harmonies, but the dance gets me every time.
My all time favorite B-Side. Everything about this song is so beautiful. The harmonization, the vocals, everything. I would have loved for you to watch the live performance of this song. You'd love it for sure.
The cover of the album actually makes reference to the name of the album, which is called XOXO (Hugs and Kisses) the logo with the heart represents the kisses and the circle logo represents the hugs, the original Exo logo is an Hexagon!
1:17 it isn’t, actually! This is just the logo for the album. If you look closely, all of EXO album logos have “ EXO “ written in them in one way or another. For example, for the album EXODUS it’s a hexagon, for Love Shot it’s a diamond, and so on. This one in particular also denotes “ XOXO” since that is the album name. (Growl is the repackaged version of the album XOXO). This pretty much started since Chanyeol designed the first logo, which was a hexagon that also spelled “EXO”. Also, The symbol for EXO-L is creating an L with your thumbs up and pointing your pointer, like a 90 degree angle between thumb and pointer ( sorry idk how else to explain this 😂)
Wait ALL of them were designed by Chanyeol?? I thought he only designed the first one, and then the production team or something went along with the idea for the rest of the albums, damn
@@ohoratkkaebsong wait nono, I’m actually not sure myself that’s why I asked, cuz I always believed he only did the first since I read about it, but then your comment made me question my knowledge 😭😭
@@sweetmimosamommysaranghae3163 neither am i tbh 😂 and it's the same for me, i always thought he deseigned all of them. But then your reply made me question my knowledge 😂😭 then i searched around and seemed like you are right! In case you aren't, i hope someone else would correct us🤣
exo always has the best mysterious concept lol i nv got to crack their code but i love how they kept it that way -- their music also infused that like whenever i hear their exodus album and pathcode teasers and debut teasers, i jus find myself immersed into that world they created with their expressive vocals and melody and emotions gosh even the last note of baby dont cry gives me so much feels like its not ended its continuing somewhere surely
‘Baby, don’t cry’ is one of my favorite EXO’s song especially rap part,🥰 I’d like to cry when listen to this song.😭 It is good and beautiful song. Vocal, Rap, Music, Harmonize.🥰
yeah. I agree that in listening to EXO you have to focus on vocals coz it draws you in and its amazing. There is a need for three types os listening 1 for vocals only 2 for the instrumental melody 3 for both.
you have to react to EXO -Baby, don't cry live in Japan, their live performance was much better and there was a surprise at the end. I never get tired of seeing it
You definitely should check out the live version, not just for the great singing but for the dancing. The producers actually said they were inspired by watching Kai dance to write the song
I've been a fan of this song since it first came out but today when i watch your video i found little things that i haven't noticed before. Great video,thank you 😊
Thank u for the reaction. Hope one day u will react to their Guides. I love how u find all the small details in the music, yes all of their vocals are Amazing.
This is the song that makes me an EXO-L back in 2012, I jump into their Live Performance first (the one that at the Radio) They are the first and the only Kpop I stan until now
Chanyeol Stay with me first song i listen and second one this Baby don't cry and i fallen love with EXO music on that time i never see them who they are how they look but this song special place in my heart .iam happy sad but this song is medicine for me .. i love EXO voices and music standard no one beat them in kpop no doubt
Back then this song was soooooooo hit! People around me loved thus song and listened to it because of the song not because of exo! They even didn't know about them!
halo aaronnnnn and exo-lssss.. thank u for yr reactionnn on this songggg aaronn!!! heyy btw you need to make reaction for xoxo by exo. that one is good tooo
i remember that exo once explained before. this song was inspired by "the little mermaid" (인어공주 in korean), but the exo members were in the prince's viewpoint. the original storyline was that little mermaid couldn't kill the prince to dispel the curse since she loved him too much even if her love wasn't reciprocated, so she chose to suicide, jumped back to the ocean and spreaded into foam. there was, somehow, a twist in ''baby don't cry''. actually, the prince did have feelings for her too, but he'd never accept that she had sacrificed a lot just to stay beside him silently. even if he bared his heart to her, she would still not be able to recover her voice. that's why when he saw little mermaid with a knife about to kill him, he sincerely wished she would have done it. the relationship ended up in tears and torment as the night kept falling down.

Yes you are right

Yes, the dance is as emotional as the vocals specially with Kai

This is what I like about EXO, they harmonize so good, sounds so good, they don't sound noisy ... Well, based on my music taste. I love RnB
the way they put emphasis on the word “cry” makes the song so much more emotional because they sound like they are actually crying which makes me cry
Exo harmonies are TOP TIER
14:18 you need to watch the studio version, but live. They sing that In the same studio with "open arms" cover
9:15 yeah man... your expressions said all xd, angelical voices, techniques and harmonies aaa
There is a live version in a radio station...Exo is espectacular..love them. My favorite male group forever!!
Omg, i remember seeing/listening to this back in the days 😣 when they were singing at A song for you ✨ goosebumps ✨
Can't believe this song is 9 years old. This is the all time great song from EXO, love it evermore now

EXO's Vocal Insane, I highly recommend everyone watching their cover of "Open Arms", their harmony were amazing.
