Halsey has stated herself that she was put in where she was needed for the vibe of the video, the storyline of it and that you can hear her on the audio version more. She even sings in Korean. She's heard in the video as well just not seen. It would make more sense if you watch the explanation video by DKDKTV... love your videos btw.
@@AmbitiousAce616 can't wait to see them, hear them when they perform with her at the BBMAs :) if you y'all haven't seen it yet y'all should check out their SNL performance of BWL. Live band with live back up singers (no vocal tracks), one of which is Melanie Fontana the writer of BWL. 💜💜💜
Yes Dionysus!!!!!! My new favorite!!! I liked the camera work better in the one where they wore the black suits! The dancers wore white shirts. Can't wait for your reaction!!!
Halsey is much more audible in the digital version. PS. Please watch *"Boy With Luv EXPLAINED"* *In the lyrics "I want to level up my eyes with you"* The song is confirmed to be about relationship between bts and armys. There are several references to *"Singing in the rain" movie* , as they wanted to convey that armys are "the man behind the curtain", *the Icarus myth reference* is one of many verses they say they got the wings from fans, went to the sky but didn't forget who brought them there and won't be too prideful to stay in there, where the wings will get burned by the sun, they'd rather step down to armys level and enjoy the time with them. *Halsey is guessed to just represent us*
I absolutely LOVE this song. The reason why Halsey didn't have a solo part is bc when BTS performs it live, if she isn't able to perform with them, they would have to somewhat redo the song for live performances. (I hope that made sense.) But yes, the album version you hear her a lot more and she sings some Korean, which is awesome!💜💜
There’s two versions of this song. The audio has more Halsey. Due to Halsey’s scheduling she could only be in the mv towards the end. I enjoyed this reaction 😊 Edit: I take it back 😂 the new mv Boy with Luv Army version has more Halsey 😆💕
I think you guys are the best on you tube at reacting to all videos. I love how you let the video play without stopping it. As far as Halsey's part in this video, she has a smaller part in the video but in the actual recorded release she has a bigger part. Keep up the good work guys. I love watching your channel.
Halsey isn’t in the MV version as much as the radio version because they will be preforming it live so much without her that they needed a version with a little less Halsey :) but on her Twitter she said she wrote and sang the whole chorus, she even harmonized in Korean, so she contributed quite a lot to the song, I think her voice blended very well with it! :) you should react to live version of Dionysus - BTS, it’s a killer song!
I think everyone has already explained why she's not featured more in the MV. One correction, BTS met her backstage at the 2017 BBMAs. She was already a fan of theirs. Then she went to Seoul and dropped by for a visit and that's when they started talking collaboration. They called her because they thought her voice was right for BWL. And she's perfect in it. But, yes, this is not as intense as some of their other work. RM, himself, said that they were taking a step back with this album and you can hear it in J-Hope's verse, where he says things like 'world peace' and Jk answers 'No Way.' They were under so much pressure and they decided to return to their roots. So, from Boy in Luv to Boy with Luv. A more introspective stance looking back at where they came from. (This album is all about ARMY.)
I think it was a good direction for the boys, because they wanted to keep it laid-back. At this point, they have done all sorts of concepts and BWL is just a relaxed, fun and addictive song. bUT Dionysus for example is a nod to their roots as well ( hip hop concept mixed with other genres = 👍)
It’s definitely not my fav bts song but I think it’s a great summer, radio bop. You can’t listen and not feel good. On the official audio there’s more Halsey! And they’re performing together on the billboard awards May 1. I think it’s awesome she sang in Korean and learned the choreo. Can’t wait to see them onstage together.
Halsey vocals are blended with the other members throughout the whole song. There is more harmonization with bts to show they’re close bond then solo vocals. Bts are very close friends with her so bts basically treated her like she is one of the members. If you notice the full song off the album she has as many lines as the vocal line with addiction to her harmonies with the vocal line.
This is a song for army accordingly to RM, and Halsey is a representation of army, they make it this simple... they are performing outside of the theater rather than the inside to have fun with army...the other song Dionysus is the banger... please watch the live version on mnet BTS comeback special... that's the best version
Thank you, Ambitious Ace! Every song and M/V DOESN'T have to be a blockbuster. BTS always switches it up, that's how you keep a long career from getting stale and just dying out. This song and video are cool and breezy, an easy one to listen to on the regular. Variety is the spice of life. If someone wants more of a banger they can check out the Dionysus stage 😉.
Moni Muppet It’s working well for them too. I heard this song on the radio while working the other day. I was geeked and bobbing to the song while everyone looking at me like “You know this???” 😂😂😂
I personally like the version in the album more, Halsey is in it a lot more. But the song is good with or without her tbh. This era is a lot more chill because it's more focused on celebrating with the fans than you know being bad ass and artistic.
The only reactions that get blocked are for their comeback trailers or intros. Idk why but it's been like that for a few comebacks. That actual title tracks should be fine. Also check out their Dionysus stage. It's amazing and the album while you're at it. The album except for the intro and the last song (Dionysus) is dedicated to the fans.
For those who are just getting into BTS or who only casually check out BTS, there is something that you may not understand about this MV and song, and even the album overall. This MV and song is fully dedicated to Army, their loving fans that have made them who they are today. In fact, most of the songs on the album is a tribute to Army, which to the genius of BTS, some of those songs can also be interpreted as simple love songs. For example, in this MV, the song isn't about a boy that fell in love (although it can be interpreted that way), it is about BTS telling Army that we gave them love, and now they are filled with our love. Example in the lyrics: "Your making me a Boy with Luv" (Army filling them with love), "You got me high so fast" (Army is the reason they're becoming successful so quickly), "Flying high in the sky with the two wings you gave me back then" (A throwback to their Wings album, but in this context saying Army lifted them up to their success), etc. The choreography was designed to be simple so Army could dance along with them and invite us to join them in their celebration of BTS and Army together The neon light signs in RM's scene is all of their previous albums all the way back to their first album. That's only some of their signs of appreciation. In most of the songs in the album, the lyrics have many easter eggs and throwbacks. So I can understand why people who aren't Army or are casual BTS listeners think the song and album is just okay. This album was purely meant for the Army's out there, which is why we're all going crazy over it.
Boy with Luv is for the Armys as said by BTS themselves and it’s called Poem for small things in Korean(like small things in life)and Halsey ft in the song was a friendly collab as they are really good friends in real. she made the effort to flew to South Korea and dance in the mv..her voice suits well with the boys too and they will perform this song at the Billboard music award in few days
For people who already listen the album and don't know how BTS work ie don't understand the meaning of this song boy with luv a shortly explanation from RM. "The person who wasn't able to receive a welcome in 'Make It Right' returns 'HOME These are just my thoughts. It's how I feel. Tracks number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 were not arranged in their places for no reason, each have their own meaning. The person begins their worries and thoughts in Persona, and then they realize: "I must focus on the small things, and talk about the trivial things, about love"(Boy with luv). And when they start talking about the trivial things and love, they realize: "Ah, we are truly one small 'mikrokosmos, a small universe, resulting and created from all these small things coming together. However, though we are this small universe, in this small universe in which we were not able to be welcomed in, they realize: "In the end, my home is not my home, but my home is where the small universe that is 'you' exists". And then, they return there. I believe this is the kind of story behind the album." Namjoon.
theres an older bts song called Boy In Luv, its like young/school love. now this song is called Boy With Luv, its mature love. this song's korean title is 'A Poem of Little Things', its about bts being curious about army, and finding love/happiness in little things. Boy With Luv and this whole album Map Of The Soul: Persona, was made for the fandom. the songs/lyrics are the things they wanna say to ARMY, excluding the first song Persona and i think the last song Dionysus too. if u understand what the album title 'map of the soul: persona' means, then u will understand a lot of things.
Oh you should see the version of Boy With Luv for ARMYs because there is more of Halsey there. Your channel always has a genuine reactions towards BTS, thank you so much for that!
They met and befriended Halsey at 2017 BBMAs said by RM during interview and finally collabed with her for their comeback “Boy With Luv” and they will perform the song with her on BBMAs May 1st at 8pm EST. It’s also connection to their 2014 “Boy in Luv” storyline. Halsey’s bias is RM and they even do their cute handshake while sitting on the couch in the MV. She’s the first female international artist to literally be singing and dancing in person along with BTS for the first time in MV and on stage at BBMAs. One can only pray hard that Billboard focuses more on the stage and their performance less on the audience. BTS was recently on SNL recently for their comeback debut for the first time, if you haven’t seen it yet you can check Saturday Night Live youtube channel for both performances “Boy With Luv” and “Mic Drop”, also their Dionysus & Boy With Luv live performances!
There are 2 versions of this video this version is for performances w/ out Halsey because they performed this on snl a couple of days after the video released or (the same day idk I forgot) but the version that goes along w/ Halsey on the album was released today on the VLive app & she is in that video more
YEEEEEES! Thanks! I've been waiting for this! Since this song and album is about, for and to ARMY /Namjoon explained on a Livestream they considered their Persona (to the world) is BTS, and BTS for them equals ARMY, so their Persona is ARMY/ I think the song was very fitting, I loved the vibe and how chill and happy they seem to be with it, even when performing... I agree with the part Halsey should have gotten a bigger part, but she explained how she herself wrote the chorus and she participates even more in the album version, singing even in Korean... On the other hand I understand why they didn't put a lot of her in the MV since they didn't want to seem as if they were "taking clout out of her"... Yeah... anyways, I think the song is cool and the more I listen to it the more I like it, hahaha. I like your reaction guys, please keep doing it! Also, could you please react to Dionysus? Pleeeeease.
Only way you get block is Halsey agency BTS agency don't copy right. Also BTS just did a live show with a new song call Dionysus. So react to BTS ComeBack Special Stage DIONYSUS. The live performance of this song is amazing
Halsey and BTS met at the BBMA's in 2017....and they have been friends ever since...they guys have said she has made many trips to Korea to hang with them....she did help them right this song....and yes the album version is slightly and I do mean slightly different....but if u re listen to it....Halsey is actually the main singer u hear in every chorus...its not Jimin...a lot of ppl think they hear Jimin, but its Halsey....their voices are very similar in the octaves....and weather or not this is their best song....it really depends on ur taste in music...some say it is and some say its not.....not every song that every artists writes is going to be perfect for every one.....the one thing everyone has to remember is that is whole album is to ARMY...and the guys saying thank you and that they appreciate the support from all of us....there are other songs, like Persona, Dionysus....to Make it Right (co written by Ed Sheeran)...and Mikrocosmos...different tastes.....
There's more of Halsey on the actual track in the album!! This MV version is the one they'll be performing in their upcoming stadium tour starting next month!! Guys, they'll be performing this at the Billboard Music Awards next week on May 1st!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱
When there are 8 ppl its hard to give everyone a verse or s moment. Honestly, it was a good balance because this was a BTS comeback. I didnt want too much of anyone else. Besides shes clearly heard throughout the song. She just blends a bit and for those who dont know the boys voices they dont hear her as well.
They just dropped an mv with the album version...called army with love version...Rarely is their title track my fave track on the album and same with this album. Jamais Vu is my fave and Intro Persona are my Dave's right now. However, I love all the tracks. Love the Halsey collab. Excited to see them perform together live May 1st at the Billboard Music Awards. Thanks for the reaction.
They knew they had to perform this alot and they couldn't expect Halsey to be there for all of them so her part might be smaller than people hoped. Her part is bigger on the album. The live performances for the album are great, you should check them out.
The music video version of this song is made for when BTS is performing this song (like Korean music shows) without Halsey having to be there every single time (or to find a female replacement). Obviously most times they won’t have the same schedule. Plus it’s the title track so this song will be performed often throughout the rest of this year. As far as I know, Halsey herself didn’t have complaints and was fine with where they needed her. After all is said and done, this is a BTS song. If people want Halsey more, she does have her music out there too 😁
I love this song and to the video!! And yes, BTS MV doesn't have to be all dramatic. This is a fun happy summer vibe song. It's something the gp can enjoy. And BigHit just released a new version of Boy With Luv and it's had more Halsey. Also, the album version Halsey has a full verse and the chorus.
Omg I was hoping that you guys would one day react to this MV 😩😩😩 React To The Live Performance Of this song on Saturday Night Live / Along with the Mic Drop Live Performance on Saturday Night Live please?!
Bighit released a new version of this vid with more halsey vocals in it. Also, i think they went for this vibe to cater to the public, something easy on the ears for radio play..in short for BB HOT100
You should react to their live comeback stage they did , they did Dionysus, make it right, and boy with luv. They were all so good, I’d love to see your reactions on those!!
She does but this is their promotion mv for Korea or Asia and they met in 2017. Then Halsey went to Korea last year and brought them giftsand that's how the friendship got started but from the beginning she wanted to do something with them. Also this song is for ARMY to show them how much they love them. They will be performing with Halsey at the bbma in May
I think this title track was much more chill than other previous ones like IDOL or Fake Love but I think its equally as good. Especially since not only this track, but a majority of the album is dedicated to ARMY, I think they did a great job with it. Also PLEASE react to their Dionysus performance its epic!
You hear more Halsey on the album. this version is for them to use during their promotion in Korea and on tour. Halsey can't be with them all the time. She will be performing with BTS at the BBMAs May 1st You need to react to BTS live performance 'Dionysus'
Check out the album/ streaming version , its different, If you listen to the track on spotif you will be able to hear an alternative to the mv where halsey has more singing part
Once again, I loved it. I think it's more relaxed and has a sugar pop summer vibe. It made me smile all the way through. FYI the album version has more Halsey /Howsey /Hosey/ Hasley / on it. You might like that version better, but either way I dig them. :)
Stephanielaury We reviewed the album. It’s exclusive for our Patreons. We really enjoyed it. I personally hope to see a music video to “Home”. Love that song!
They have ANOTHER MV for this with more Halsey in it because the second MV is for ARMYs and she represents ARMYs! Also, the CGI is only couch with LOVE sign and painting in the back. The rest are real sets 😅 It supposed to look like 80-90s musical ^_^ I LOVE this song!! 💖💜
this song is more accessible to general audience. their intention is to be radio friendly. and i think they achieved their goal. If halsey had her own verse, bts wouldnt be able to perform this song at concerts and korean awards shows. her voice is much more present in the album version. the MV version understandably features her in a little part. i know fans are sad halsey's part wasnt longer but if she was a big part of the video, then it would be spotlighting her and people would say that bts is only breaking records bc of halsey. and then fans would've complain she had too big a part in the song. so you cant please everyone in this situation.
React to them singing Boy With luv on Saturday Night Live. Without them jumping from scene to scene. Its a choreo explosion. And Haley didn't do her verse in the video because she wouldn't be performing with them live .But she's on the album
Well make sure to tune into the BBMA’s when they perform this with her. Also she sang her parts in Korean. Just always remember, they have to perform there songs without Halsey so they had to set it up so they could.
I had the same reaction when I first saw this mv. Please react to this song live. Preferably their SNL performance. It totally changed my mind about this song. Issa bop !
So cute the reactors is dancing , the whole time their heads were dancing...🤣🤣🤣✌️✌️✌️👏👏👏Halsey has a verse you can here it in the album and Spotify , it’s just they don’t see Halsey on it because she can’t be with all their performance because Halsey is busy too..
It’s a chill simple vibe that completes that love feel!... but yes she had a little more on the track than the MV but I still love 💜 both versions! Thanks for your reactions I always 💜 yaws reaction! Check out the whole EP and 3 of the tracks live performance on MNet 💜🤘🔥
The more I listen to the MV - and I've listened a lot - the more I can hear Halsey all over the track. She's very subtly in most of the backing - even the Korean parts. I haven't heard the album version to compare, but I've come to consider the MV very balanced in terms of her contribution. I think a lot of people are mistaking all her backup for Jimin and Jungkook's falsettos. Anyone else agree? 💜
People need to realize that Halsey isnt going to be singing this song live with them all the time so having her in towards the end makes sense and gives her credit as well. Yeah the actual album version has her voice more. If Halsey didn't mind then I don't see why people do.
I believe the only CGI was when they were on the couch actually. From watching the behind the scenes of the shooting of the MV it appears that is the only time. I could be wrong but that is my observation. I love the song and the video was meant to be cute for ARMY and not so over the top and grand to appeal to OP. Again, my opinion as well. They just dropped a new version so you all should definitely react to it as it has more Halsey in it :)
this song is definitely one for the western audience and this is a different sound for them aswell. I thought this Collab was really good and at first I was confused as to why Halsey got a short amount of lines in the video but Its because Halsey cant be with them whenever they promote this song for their live stages in Korea so really this video, business wise ,was a good strategy because the song isn’t depending on Halsey, but if you listen to the audio version (which is aimed towards the American audience) you hear WAYYY more Halsey. I actually really like the song and the dance moves are super catchy, and the song has an addictive hook as well so I automatically knew it would chart high even though I loved the video I prefer the audio version with Halsey because her voice really fits well with the songs + BTS.
I don't really like collaborations that have an entire verse in English just for the western artist to do, especially on a Korean song. It's different if it's a western artist, who wants to have Korean sprinkled into their song, but for K-Pop artists, the song is primarily meant for THEM to perform, so it works much better with the western voice just mixing in with the English parts/lines of the song. I think Halsey's addition was perfect; she didn't overshadow the boys in the song-it wasn't just packed with a random English verse just for her to sing-and it showed true collaboration; the fact that she sang along with the Korean chorus IN Korean! She's so awesome! 😊😊🙌🏼💓
The mv is just for BTS promotions. Cause they will be performing the song live alot in Korea and on tour without her so that's why the mv has her presence more than her voice.
An alternative M/V of this song, dropped earlier today; And it appears to be the album version of the song. In my opinion, it's better than the original M/V.
Actually the reason the video and audio version is different is she wont be there for their permotions in korea and their concerts and things so this is the version they will perform where her part is minimal where they can run a backtrack with it or jimin and jungkook can sing it since it within their vocal range and while the video may seem simpilistic its supposed to because the song is actually about us(army) them dancing with us them being with us by bringing themselves down off the stage and protecting us watch the explanation video by dkdtv lol he explains it better
She isn't as much in the video because they need a version they can perform whitout her and on the album version she has a full verse they perform when they are together They will perform at the billboard music awards so you will see But i loved it it's perfect people that are complaining just want something to complain about
The story was a litte backwards. Halsey was the one who went up to BTS in the BBMAs in 2017 saying she watches their MV and are a big fan. They kept in contact the past few years. So when this track came up they thought she would be a good fit. The reason why the MV and audio is different is possibly due to performance wise. If Halsey played a huge part like a verse that yall suggested, then at each and every award or music show (a lot) BTS goes to without Halsey there will be a big gap to cover. But look forward to the BBMAs on May 1. They're performing live together for the first time so maybe there are some tweaks to it.
Nothing against Halsey, but I just wanted to see my boys, lol! The video is beautiful. Singing in the Rain is the movie poster at the movie theater that BTS is outside of. So I think the concept has part of that - RM's suit with the umbrella, JHope's twirl on the light pole. Tribute to Gene Kelly, (who btw was a "man with love" in that famous scene) one of my favorite dancers of all time!
Please react to DKDKTV explanation of Boy with Love to understand lyrics and meaning behind it since it's base on Musical Singing in the Rain by Gene Kelly And album is base on Jung Map of the Soul book ( so please check out DKDKTV explanation of Map of The Soul : Personal to understand the reset of the songs in this album) Most of ARMY favorite song in this album is HOME, maybe check out the lyric video Love Halsey collab, it's more organic. She meet BTS 2 years ago at Billboard, and she is the one that approached them. ( not the other way around) Also she sings in Kon-glish which is the first Western Artist to do so, most Kpop groups when collab with western artist they will just do the song in all ENG or the will only sing Eng. But Halsey put effort and also she never danced in MVs not even hers yet she flew all the way to SK to learn choreography and be part of the MV. Unlike Nicki Minaj was just edit in.
I see you've done RM's mixtape. You should check out Suga's mixtape- Agust D. Especially tracks The Last, So Far Away, title track Agust D & Give It To Me (the last two have MVs, first 2 only lyric vids)
I really love this song it was just the 1st time I watched it I was a bit taken back bc I had expectations which is not good to do😅😂 but after the 2nd time and watching it more I love everything about this MV
If you haven't already, you should check out the SNL performances and the MNet Comeback performances. Not sure if you should post a reaction to them on YT bc you might get a strike...but maybe an exclusive vid just for Patreon subscribers? 🤗
Halsey has stated herself that she was put in where she was needed for the vibe of the video, the storyline of it and that you can hear her on the audio version more. She even sings in Korean. She's heard in the video as well just not seen. It would make more sense if you watch the explanation video by DKDKTV... love your videos btw.
Esther Garcia Yeah I’m feeling it more now that I have had some time with the album. Her placement was fitting. Great collaboration.
@@AmbitiousAce616 can't wait to see them, hear them when they perform with her at the BBMAs :) if you y'all haven't seen it yet y'all should check out their SNL performance of BWL. Live band with live back up singers (no vocal tracks), one of which is Melanie Fontana the writer of BWL. 💜💜💜
Yess yess yesss react to the explanation pleaseeeeeee!!!!🙏😊
you got to react to BTS dionysus live its crazy!
BTS company wont block or flag any videos with their content. You good
Am glad you did it...react to their Dionysus performance..you won’t regret it
A'ISHA I second this. M Countdown (in the white suits) performance. So good.
Yes Dionysus!!!!!! My new favorite!!! I liked the camera work better in the one where they wore the black suits! The dancers wore white shirts. Can't wait for your reaction!!!
Nina Perez definitely the one with the white suits
Yaaas live Dionysus performance please! 👏🏼👏🏼🔥💜
Yess
This version is more the version that they use for perfomances when halsey isn't able to perform with them.
Halsey is much more audible in the digital version.
PS. Please watch *"Boy With Luv EXPLAINED"*
*In the lyrics "I want to level up my eyes with you"*
The song is confirmed to be about relationship between bts and armys. There are several references to *"Singing in the rain" movie* , as they wanted to convey that armys are "the man behind the curtain", *the Icarus myth reference* is one of many verses they say they got the wings from fans, went to the sky but didn't forget who brought them there and won't be too prideful to stay in there, where the wings will get burned by the sun, they'd rather step down to armys level and enjoy the time with them. *Halsey is guessed to just represent us*
Please react to their SNL performance and Dionysus live performance
I absolutely LOVE this song. The reason why Halsey didn't have a solo part is bc when BTS performs it live, if she isn't able to perform with them, they would have to somewhat redo the song for live performances. (I hope that made sense.) But yes, the album version you hear her a lot more and she sings some Korean, which is awesome!💜💜
The song is amazing .. after i watched RM vlive the other day.. i love more this album too .. they dedicate that songs for us u.u
There’s two versions of this song. The audio has more Halsey. Due to Halsey’s scheduling she could only be in the mv towards the end. I enjoyed this reaction 😊
Edit: I take it back 😂 the new mv Boy with Luv Army version has more Halsey 😆💕
I think you guys are the best on you tube at reacting to all videos. I love how you let the video play without stopping it. As far as Halsey's part in this video, she has a smaller part in the video but in the actual recorded release she has a bigger part. Keep up the good work guys. I love watching your channel.
Desiree Morris Appreciate the love! Thanks! 🙏🏽
🙏🏾
I also appreciate that you don't add any ads unlike other reactors 🙌🏼😂
You guys are some of my fave reactors. You deserve more subscribers and views 🙏🏼
Thank you very much. We appreciate that.
Halsey isn’t in the MV version as much as the radio version because they will be preforming it live so much without her that they needed a version with a little less Halsey :) but on her Twitter she said she wrote and sang the whole chorus, she even harmonized in Korean, so she contributed quite a lot to the song, I think her voice blended very well with it! :) you should react to live version of Dionysus - BTS, it’s a killer song!
I think everyone has already explained why she's not featured more in the MV. One correction, BTS met her backstage at the 2017 BBMAs. She was already a fan of theirs. Then she went to Seoul and dropped by for a visit and that's when they started talking collaboration. They called her because they thought her voice was right for BWL. And she's perfect in it.
But, yes, this is not as intense as some of their other work. RM, himself, said that they were taking a step back with this album and you can hear it in J-Hope's verse, where he says things like 'world peace' and Jk answers 'No Way.'
They were under so much pressure and they decided to return to their roots. So, from Boy in Luv to Boy with Luv. A more introspective stance looking back at where they came from. (This album is all about ARMY.)
I think it was a good direction for the boys, because they wanted to keep it laid-back.
At this point, they have done all sorts of concepts and BWL is just a relaxed, fun and addictive song.
bUT Dionysus for example is a nod to their roots as well ( hip hop concept mixed with other genres = 👍)
It’s definitely not my fav bts song but I think it’s a great summer, radio bop. You can’t listen and not feel good. On the official audio there’s more Halsey! And they’re performing together on the billboard awards May 1. I think it’s awesome she sang in Korean and learned the choreo. Can’t wait to see them onstage together.
Is a song for Army too 💜.. tracks 2 to 6 are songs dedicated to their fans.
yeah,this song have a great feelling
I'm so excited to see that performance too! Also I have hopes they'll have learned & show more performance than crowd this time...
I'm agree, this is not my fav song from bts too
Halsey vocals are blended with the other members throughout the whole song. There is more harmonization with bts to show they’re close bond then solo vocals. Bts are very close friends with her so bts basically treated her like she is one of the members. If you notice the full song off the album she has as many lines as the vocal line with addiction to her harmonies with the vocal line.
This is a song for army accordingly to RM, and Halsey is a representation of army, they make it this simple... they are performing outside of the theater rather than the inside to have fun with army...the other song Dionysus is the banger... please watch the live version on mnet BTS comeback special... that's the best version
I was waiting for you guys. Please react to their perfomance at SNL !!! The live version is awesome.
Thank you, Ambitious Ace! Every song and M/V DOESN'T have to be a blockbuster. BTS always switches it up, that's how you keep a long career from getting stale and just dying out. This song and video are cool and breezy, an easy one to listen to on the regular. Variety is the spice of life. If someone wants more of a banger they can check out the Dionysus stage 😉.
Moni Muppet It’s working well for them too. I heard this song on the radio while working the other day. I was geeked and bobbing to the song while everyone looking at me like “You know this???” 😂😂😂
I personally like the version in the album more, Halsey is in it a lot more. But the song is good with or without her tbh. This era is a lot more chill because it's more focused on celebrating with the fans than you know being bad ass and artistic.
Josue Hernandez Yeah after sitting with the album for a few listens it grows on you. Its a great track.
Halsey’s heard way more on the spotify version
The only reactions that get blocked are for their comeback trailers or intros. Idk why but it's been like that for a few comebacks. That actual title tracks should be fine. Also check out their Dionysus stage. It's amazing and the album while you're at it. The album except for the intro and the last song (Dionysus) is dedicated to the fans.
For those who are just getting into BTS or who only casually check out BTS, there is something that you may not understand about this MV and song, and even the album overall. This MV and song is fully dedicated to Army, their loving fans that have made them who they are today. In fact, most of the songs on the album is a tribute to Army, which to the genius of BTS, some of those songs can also be interpreted as simple love songs.
For example, in this MV, the song isn't about a boy that fell in love (although it can be interpreted that way), it is about BTS telling Army that we gave them love, and now they are filled with our love. Example in the lyrics: "Your making me a Boy with Luv" (Army filling them with love), "You got me high so fast" (Army is the reason they're becoming successful so quickly), "Flying high in the sky with the two wings you gave me back then" (A throwback to their Wings album, but in this context saying Army lifted them up to their success), etc. The choreography was designed to be simple so Army could dance along with them and invite us to join them in their celebration of BTS and Army together The neon light signs in RM's scene is all of their previous albums all the way back to their first album. That's only some of their signs of appreciation. In most of the songs in the album, the lyrics have many easter eggs and throwbacks.
So I can understand why people who aren't Army or are casual BTS listeners think the song and album is just okay. This album was purely meant for the Army's out there, which is why we're all going crazy over it.
Boy with Luv is for the Armys as said by BTS themselves and it’s called Poem for small things in Korean(like small things in life)and Halsey ft in the song was a friendly collab as they are really good friends in real. she made the effort to flew to South Korea and dance in the mv..her voice suits well with the boys too and they will perform this song at the Billboard music award in few days
BTS DIONYSUS COMEBACK STAGE!!!!
For people who already listen the album and don't know how BTS work ie don't understand the meaning of this song boy with luv a shortly explanation from RM.
"The person who wasn't able to receive a welcome in 'Make It Right' returns 'HOME These are just my thoughts. It's how I feel.
Tracks number 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 were not arranged in their places for no reason, each have their own meaning. The person begins their worries and thoughts in Persona, and then they realize: "I must focus on the small things, and talk about the trivial things, about love"(Boy with luv). And when they start talking about the trivial things and love, they realize: "Ah, we are truly one small 'mikrokosmos, a small universe, resulting and created from all these small things coming together. However, though we are this small universe, in this small universe in which we were not able to be welcomed in, they realize: "In the end, my home is not my home, but my home is where the small universe that is 'you' exists". And then, they return there. I believe this is the kind of story behind the album." Namjoon.
theres an older bts song called Boy In Luv, its like young/school love.
now this song is called Boy With Luv, its mature love.
this song's korean title is 'A Poem of Little Things', its about bts being curious about army, and finding love/happiness in little things.
Boy With Luv and this whole album Map Of The Soul: Persona, was made for the fandom. the songs/lyrics are the things they wanna say to ARMY, excluding the first song Persona and i think the last song Dionysus too. if u understand what the album title 'map of the soul: persona' means, then u will understand a lot of things.
Oh you should see the version of Boy With Luv for ARMYs because there is more of Halsey there. Your channel always has a genuine reactions towards BTS, thank you so much for that!
They met and befriended Halsey at 2017 BBMAs said by RM during interview and finally collabed with her for their comeback “Boy With Luv” and they will perform the song with her on BBMAs May 1st at 8pm EST. It’s also connection to their 2014 “Boy in Luv” storyline. Halsey’s bias is RM and they even do their cute handshake while sitting on the couch in the MV. She’s the first female international artist to literally be singing and dancing in person along with BTS for the first time in MV and on stage at BBMAs. One can only pray hard that Billboard focuses more on the stage and their performance less on the audience. BTS was recently on SNL recently for their comeback debut for the first time, if you haven’t seen it yet you can check Saturday Night Live youtube channel for both performances “Boy With Luv” and “Mic Drop”, also their Dionysus & Boy With Luv live performances!
There are 2 versions of this video this version is for performances w/ out Halsey because they performed this on snl a couple of days after the video released or (the same day idk I forgot) but the version that goes along w/ Halsey on the album was released today on the VLive app & she is in that video more
YEEEEEES! Thanks! I've been waiting for this! Since this song and album is about, for and to ARMY /Namjoon explained on a Livestream they considered their Persona (to the world) is BTS, and BTS for them equals ARMY, so their Persona is ARMY/ I think the song was very fitting, I loved the vibe and how chill and happy they seem to be with it, even when performing... I agree with the part Halsey should have gotten a bigger part, but she explained how she herself wrote the chorus and she participates even more in the album version, singing even in Korean... On the other hand I understand why they didn't put a lot of her in the MV since they didn't want to seem as if they were "taking clout out of her"... Yeah... anyways, I think the song is cool and the more I listen to it the more I like it, hahaha. I like your reaction guys, please keep doing it! Also, could you please react to Dionysus? Pleeeeease.
Only way you get block is Halsey agency BTS agency don't copy right. Also BTS just did a live show with a new song call Dionysus. So react to BTS ComeBack Special Stage DIONYSUS. The live performance of this song is amazing
React to BTS Dionysus comback performance. And listen to the audio of Boy with luv you can hear her sing more in it
I personally like the album version more cuz more halsey and her voice adds more colour to the song. Thanks for the reaction!
Halsey and BTS met at the BBMA's in 2017....and they have been friends ever since...they guys have said she has made many trips to Korea to hang with them....she did help them right this song....and yes the album version is slightly and I do mean slightly different....but if u re listen to it....Halsey is actually the main singer u hear in every chorus...its not Jimin...a lot of ppl think they hear Jimin, but its Halsey....their voices are very similar in the octaves....and weather or not this is their best song....it really depends on ur taste in music...some say it is and some say its not.....not every song that every artists writes is going to be perfect for every one.....the one thing everyone has to remember is that is whole album is to ARMY...and the guys saying thank you and that they appreciate the support from all of us....there are other songs, like Persona, Dionysus....to Make it Right (co written by Ed Sheeran)...and Mikrocosmos...different tastes.....
This is one of BTS’s best songs. It’s so catchy. So DOPE. 🔥🔥🔥💯
There's more of Halsey on the actual track in the album!! This MV version is the one they'll be performing in their upcoming stadium tour starting next month!! Guys, they'll be performing this at the Billboard Music Awards next week on May 1st!!! 😱😱😱😱😱😱
BTS Singularity
When there are 8 ppl its hard to give everyone a verse or s moment. Honestly, it was a good balance because this was a BTS comeback. I didnt want too much of anyone else. Besides shes clearly heard throughout the song. She just blends a bit and for those who dont know the boys voices they dont hear her as well.
They just dropped an mv with the album version...called army with love version...Rarely is their title track my fave track on the album and same with this album. Jamais Vu is my fave and Intro Persona are my Dave's right now. However, I love all the tracks. Love the Halsey collab. Excited to see them perform together live May 1st at the Billboard Music Awards. Thanks for the reaction.
They knew they had to perform this alot and they couldn't expect Halsey to be there for all of them so her part might be smaller than people hoped. Her part is bigger on the album. The live performances for the album are great, you should check them out.
The music video version of this song is made for when BTS is performing this song (like Korean music shows) without Halsey having to be there every single time (or to find a female replacement). Obviously most times they won’t have the same schedule. Plus it’s the title track so this song will be performed often throughout the rest of this year. As far as I know, Halsey herself didn’t have complaints and was fine with where they needed her. After all is said and done, this is a BTS song. If people want Halsey more, she does have her music out there too 😁
I love this song and to the video!! And yes, BTS MV doesn't have to be all dramatic. This is a fun happy summer vibe song. It's something the gp can enjoy. And BigHit just released a new version of Boy With Luv and it's had more Halsey. Also, the album version Halsey has a full verse and the chorus.
Thanks for the honest reaction dude in the middle
Omg I was hoping that you guys would one day react to this MV 😩😩😩 React To The Live Performance Of this song on Saturday Night Live / Along with the Mic Drop Live Performance on Saturday Night Live please?!
Yes yes yes! Those two are a must!
idk who told it's not that good - amazing song that has been on my repeat playlist
Such a professional reactions.
Bighit released a new version of this vid with more halsey vocals in it. Also, i think they went for this vibe to cater to the public, something easy on the ears for radio play..in short for BB HOT100
You should react to their live comeback stage they did , they did Dionysus, make it right, and boy with luv. They were all so good, I’d love to see your reactions on those!!
She does but this is their promotion mv for Korea or Asia and they met in 2017. Then Halsey went to Korea last year and brought them giftsand that's how the friendship got started but from the beginning she wanted to do something with them. Also this song is for ARMY to show them how much they love them. They will be performing with Halsey at the bbma in May
it's serenade, BTS singing to ARMY.
I think this title track was much more chill than other previous ones like IDOL or Fake Love but I think its equally as good. Especially since not only this track, but a majority of the album is dedicated to ARMY, I think they did a great job with it. Also PLEASE react to their Dionysus performance its epic!
You hear more Halsey on the album. this version is for them to use during their promotion in Korea and on tour. Halsey can't be with them all the time. She will be performing with BTS at the BBMAs May 1st
You need to react to BTS live performance 'Dionysus'
Check out the album/ streaming version , its different, If you listen to the track on spotif you will be able to hear an alternative to the mv where halsey has more singing part
Once again, I loved it. I think it's more relaxed and has a sugar pop summer vibe. It made me smile all the way through. FYI the album version has more Halsey /Howsey /Hosey/ Hasley / on it. You might like that version better, but either way I dig them. :)
pauletteleroy I see what you did there. That was good. 😂😂😂
@@AmbitiousAce616 lol I just had to. haha
Thank God I'm here on time before anything happens. Do an album review, I'm telling you it is a BOP!!!!😂😂😂
Stephanielaury We reviewed the album. It’s exclusive for our Patreons. We really enjoyed it. I personally hope to see a music video to “Home”. Love that song!
They have ANOTHER MV for this with more Halsey in it because the second MV is for ARMYs and she represents ARMYs!
Also, the CGI is only couch with LOVE sign and painting in the back. The rest are real sets 😅 It supposed to look like 80-90s musical ^_^
I LOVE this song!! 💖💜
@4:19 those signs are all album names, ones they’ve done so far
this song is more accessible to general audience. their intention is to be radio friendly. and i think they achieved their goal. If halsey had her own verse, bts wouldnt be able to perform this song at concerts and korean awards shows. her voice is much more present in the album version. the MV version understandably features her in a little part. i know fans are sad halsey's part wasnt longer but if she was a big part of the video, then it would be spotlighting her and people would say that bts is only breaking records bc of halsey. and then fans would've complain she had too big a part in the song. so you cant please everyone in this situation.
Bts and Halsey is going to performed this at Billboard May 1
React to them singing Boy With luv on Saturday Night Live. Without them jumping from scene to scene. Its a choreo explosion. And Haley didn't do her verse in the video because she wouldn't be performing with them live .But she's on the album
I loved it. It was amazing to be honest.
Well make sure to tune into the BBMA’s when they perform this with her. Also she sang her parts in Korean.
Just always remember, they have to perform there songs without Halsey so they had to set it up so they could.
Halsey sings from the first chorus in Album version. This is like the performance version for BTS
I had the same reaction when I first saw this mv. Please react to this song live. Preferably their SNL performance. It totally changed my mind about this song. Issa bop !
So cute the reactors is dancing , the whole time their heads were dancing...🤣🤣🤣✌️✌️✌️👏👏👏Halsey has a verse you can here it in the album and Spotify , it’s just they don’t see Halsey on it because she can’t be with all their performance because Halsey is busy too..
It’s a chill simple vibe that completes that love feel!... but yes she had a little more on the track than the MV but I still love 💜 both versions! Thanks for your reactions I always 💜 yaws reaction! Check out the whole EP and 3 of the tracks live performance on MNet 💜🤘🔥
The more I listen to the MV - and I've listened a lot - the more I can hear Halsey all over the track. She's very subtly in most of the backing - even the Korean parts. I haven't heard the album version to compare, but I've come to consider the MV very balanced in terms of her contribution. I think a lot of people are mistaking all her backup for Jimin and Jungkook's falsettos. Anyone else agree? 💜
People need to realize that Halsey isnt going to be singing this song live with them all the time so having her in towards the end makes sense and gives her credit as well. Yeah the actual album version has her voice more. If Halsey didn't mind then I don't see why people do.
they met her two years ago at the bbmas and have been friends with her since :)
I'll add mine to the many other requests for a reaction to Dionysus performance. I think you guys will definitely enjoy that.
Yall should react to live performances, the full choreo is awesome to watch.
*They looking at him like that because that's their leader and their brother and their best friend haha*
0:35 My mind: RM in "HOME" "I'm exhausted"😅
I believe the only CGI was when they were on the couch actually. From watching the behind the scenes of the shooting of the MV it appears that is the only time. I could be wrong but that is my observation. I love the song and the video was meant to be cute for ARMY and not so over the top and grand to appeal to OP. Again, my opinion as well. They just dropped a new version so you all should definitely react to it as it has more Halsey in it :)
Check out The ARMY with Luv ver of Boy With Luv features Halsey more.
this song is definitely one for the western audience and this is a different sound for them aswell. I thought this Collab was really good and at first I was confused as to why Halsey got a short amount of lines in the video but Its because Halsey cant be with them whenever they promote this song for their live stages in Korea so really this video, business wise ,was a good strategy because the song isn’t depending on Halsey, but if you listen to the audio version (which is aimed towards the American audience) you hear WAYYY more Halsey. I actually really like the song and the dance moves are super catchy, and the song has an addictive hook as well so I automatically knew it would chart high even though I loved the video I prefer the audio version with Halsey because her voice really fits well with the songs + BTS.
I don't really like collaborations that have an entire verse in English just for the western artist to do, especially on a Korean song. It's different if it's a western artist, who wants to have Korean sprinkled into their song, but for K-Pop artists, the song is primarily meant for THEM to perform, so it works much better with the western voice just mixing in with the English parts/lines of the song.
I think Halsey's addition was perfect; she didn't overshadow the boys in the song-it wasn't just packed with a random English verse just for her to sing-and it showed true collaboration; the fact that she sang along with the Korean chorus IN Korean! She's so awesome! 😊😊🙌🏼💓
I hope you guys can also react to their Dionysus live performance on M COUNTDOWN. Now that was super epic!
The mv is just for BTS promotions. Cause they will be performing the song live alot in Korea and on tour without her so that's why the mv has her presence more than her voice.
An alternative M/V of this song, dropped earlier today; And it appears to be the album version of the song.
In my opinion, it's better than the original M/V.
Actually the reason the video and audio version is different is she wont be there for their permotions in korea and their concerts and things so this is the version they will perform where her part is minimal where they can run a backtrack with it or jimin and jungkook can sing it since it within their vocal range and while the video may seem simpilistic its supposed to because the song is actually about us(army) them dancing with us them being with us by bringing themselves down off the stage and protecting us watch the explanation video by dkdtv lol he explains it better
Appreciate your reactions the most! Please react to their SNL performances!!! They did Boy with Luv with a live band and then Mic Drop!!!
I was definitely waiting for you guys to react to BTS ft. Halsey -BWL. Thank you! 💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
0:23 ahh yes my fav singer hasley
SHEESH
She isn't as much in the video because they need a version they can perform whitout her and on the album version she has a full verse they perform when they are together
They will perform at the billboard music awards so you will see
But i loved it it's perfect people that are complaining just want something to complain about
please react to their SNL performance of Boy With Luv its even better! and please react to BTS - Dionysus live, both are a must!!
please react to their Dionysus performance,
The story was a litte backwards. Halsey was the one who went up to BTS in the BBMAs in 2017 saying she watches their MV and are a big fan. They kept in contact the past few years. So when this track came up they thought she would be a good fit.
The reason why the MV and audio is different is possibly due to performance wise. If Halsey played a huge part like a verse that yall suggested, then at each and every award or music show (a lot) BTS goes to without Halsey there will be a big gap to cover.
But look forward to the BBMAs on May 1. They're performing live together for the first time so maybe there are some tweaks to it.
Nothing against Halsey, but I just wanted to see my boys, lol! The video is beautiful. Singing in the Rain is the movie poster at the movie theater that BTS is outside of. So I think the concept has part of that - RM's suit with the umbrella, JHope's twirl on the light pole. Tribute to Gene Kelly, (who btw was a "man with love" in that famous scene) one of my favorite dancers of all time!
Please react to DKDKTV explanation of Boy with Love to understand lyrics and meaning behind it since it's base on Musical Singing in the Rain by Gene Kelly
And album is base on Jung Map of the Soul book ( so please check out DKDKTV explanation of Map of The Soul : Personal to understand the reset of the songs in this album)
Most of ARMY favorite song in this album is HOME, maybe check out the lyric video
Love Halsey collab, it's more organic. She meet BTS 2 years ago at Billboard, and she is the one that approached them. ( not the other way around) Also she sings in Kon-glish which is the first Western Artist to do so, most Kpop groups when collab with western artist they will just do the song in all ENG or the will only sing Eng. But Halsey put effort and also she never danced in MVs not even hers yet she flew all the way to SK to learn choreography and be part of the MV. Unlike Nicki Minaj was just edit in.
I see you've done RM's mixtape. You should check out Suga's mixtape-
Agust D. Especially tracks The Last, So Far Away, title track Agust D & Give It To Me (the last two have MVs, first 2 only lyric vids)
Thanks for your reaction! Please react to the BTS Dionysus Live Comeback performance with the members in white suits!
Nice, please react to Mnet live Dionysus by BTS. The song was written and composed by J-Hope, you won't regret it.
I really love this song it was just the 1st time I watched it I was a bit taken back bc I had expectations which is not good to do😅😂 but after the 2nd time and watching it more I love everything about this MV
PLEASE REACT TO BTS DIONYSUS LIVE PLEASEE
"shoutout to comfortable fabric" 😂
Well you're gonna see more of Halsey in their new MV Army With Luv
7:16 he called idol “icon” 😭 i used to do that too
If you haven't already, you should check out the SNL performances and the MNet Comeback performances. Not sure if you should post a reaction to them on YT bc you might get a strike...but maybe an exclusive vid just for Patreon subscribers? 🤗
Yep. One of the snl performances is a Patreon exclusive that goes up in a few minutes if not right now depending on when your reading this.
Your reaction was pretty cool and pretty open-minded. Thanks
