Kim Taehyung: I wrote “Blue & Grey" when I was at my lowest point, when I was actually asking whether I could keep going with my work or not. Even the fun parts of work became a chore, and my whole life felt aimless.
-We’re in the same boat and we can get through it together 💜
I love the "raw" nature of this song & it's so vulnerable.
One of the most relaxing and heart wrenching songs ever
Your profile pic 😂
Your name 😂😂😂
Blue & Grey - V is the main songwriter, composer, & producer on this song. it was originally for his mixtape
This is everyone's favourite one in the BE album.
V wrote this song when he was suffering from burnout and possibly depression. He said this a couple of times, I also think that’s why the members wrote such moving messages to him on the rolling paper during the fiesta. So its actually V's own story. Makes this song even more emotional.
Blue and Grey is A song expressing sad, anxiety , disorder and depression which are usually shown through ' Blue and Grey' color and that motivated him to write this song. V's style of writing and composing is very poetic.
This song is getting rave reviews as the stand out and best song in the album from all the main stream mucus critics.
The Independent - an apt anthem for the sad and sexy moods of lockdown."
NME - “ Blue & Grey’s - The most devastating song on the album, it details “unease and gloom” in terms that are crushingly vulnerable."
LA Times - Blue & Grey” - It’s one of the exemplary songs of the “pandemic-pop” era.
Metro UK - the track as one that acts as a time capsule, which is likely to connect with many who have struggled with their mental health. It was refreshing for the world's biggest band to address anxiety and depression.
Evening Standard UK - "Blue and Grey is by far the schmaltziest moment on the album, ticking all the boxes....”
The Quietus Europe’s largest music and culture website- “Blue and Grey is a cosy approach to anxiety where whispering voices sing rawly about depression while a bright piano plays at the back, reminiscing hopefully”
lsureveille Newspaper -My favorite song, hands down, on the album is “Blue & Grey.” Throughout the song, the guys use the colors blue and grey in different ways. “Blue & Grey” is meticulously crafted. It is the emotional peak on “BE”. The acoustic guitar compliments and made the production. The guitar mesmerized me, especially the opening. It is light and soft. Then, V’s outro is “after secretly sending my words up into the air/now I fall asleep at dawn, good night.” How beautiful.
V is master of devastating us!
Blue & Grey debuted number 66 on the UK Official Singles Chart, thus being the ONLY BE B-side to chart. This song hit #13 on the Billboard Hot 100 song chart. Let that sink in. I repeat, let that sink in. A B-side unpromoted song with no MV (TH-cam views count towards the chart) and of course zero airplay. It is the highest charting BTS B-side to this day.
Blue & Grey has now sold 100K units in US becoming the First B-side and third track from BE after life Goes On and Dynamite to sell 100K units.
Hey Aaron, these are quotes from V from his interview in Weverse magazine. I think they really help to explain the song:
"I wrote “Blue & Grey” when I was at my lowest point, when I was actually asking whether I could keep going with my work or not. Even the fun parts of work became a chore, and my whole life felt aimless. “Where do I go from here? I can’t even see the end of the tunnel.” Those kinds of thoughts hit me hard."
"It was when work was a major challenge. When I’m happy, I want to work, and when I’m happy I can put on a smile and see the fans, but there was just so much work to do. I’m an easygoing, you know, laid-back person, but I was stretched too thin and I was starting to sputter. What I mean is, I was having a really tough time, and thinking, “What’s waiting for me at the end? It’s important to be successful, but I’m also trying to be happy, so how come I’m not happy right now?” That’s when I started to write “Blue & Grey.”"
"Rather than just some stranger telling them to cheer up, I think it’s better to say something like, “You seem depressed lately,” or, “Seems like these days it’s tough for you to perk up.” “Blue & Grey” is the same: “You’re depressed lately? Me too. We’re in the same boat. Wanna talk about how you’re feeling? You wanna feel better, right? I know, but sometimes it feels like you’re being washed away by a whirlpool of stress.” I want the listeners to hear me saying that to them."

" All this ground feels so heavier im singing by myself" - V
this part makes me cryyy!His voice is so life changing indeed
I think it is simpler. Tae stated in an interview that he wrote this song when his mental health was not good, come on, that he was going through a depression, as usual in humans. With "Blue & Gray" he showed us a part that he doesn't usually show, maybe because he doesn't make the fandom feel bad, but it's something he feels, and I think we all go through difficult times at times. I see it as a declaration that he is equal to me, that he suffers and is real and it is not bad to suffer, as long as we get over it later. It is a song that completely humanizes them.
So True. We are all ‘just’ humanbeing, simply can’t avoid that kind of feeling sometimes.
Taehyung just a human ...and thankfull for this song...I can relate much and loving it
This one and Disease are the best songs of the album for me. God, Blue and Gray is my favorite for sure!!!
SAME
tae wrote this , is so emotional:(
V must have been suffering a lot to write a song like this.
I hope he's okay and happy now
When your wearing headphones and listening to this song.... ITS SO SATISFYING... TAES VOICE IS SO BEAUTIFUL OMG
I LITERALLY CRY EVERYTIME I HEAR THIS SONG
*Me too.😭*
Same :(
same...
Same.. everytime i hear it.. its so beautiful and it feel to our hearts straight from the start..
Blue & Grey is my favorite track from the album. I love it so much that I always feel like crying when listening to it. I would describe it as a piece that is so sad but so beautiful. Beautiful sadness😭😭😭💜💜💜💜
this song v made it . It's about his burnout that he suffer .
THE LYRIC IS ARTTTTT!!
Also Aaron, the parts of the lyrics with asterisks* can be found in the description of the lyric video with explanations for the translation. Just for future reference. :)
Taehyung actually gave a snippet of this song in In The Soop
ITS SO DEEP AS TAE's VOICE.
I just wanna say for this song im SPEECHLESS
Tae wrote the song a long time ago for his mixtape. Originally it was all in English and obviously sung only by him. The boys commented that the song was very good and decided to put it on BE. It is about Tae's depression, he was going through a terrible time, to the point of wanting to leave BTS because he believed that it was a drag on the boys. Fortunately now he is much better. It is already noticeable in his way of acting, he is more expressive and less crestfallen. In In the soop (the program was very therapeutic for him) there is a bit of his old model ...

Sorry, my copi-past is terrible. I see tree copis...
@@carlap.4066 Ahaha don't worry army, thank you for the insights 💜
This was literally my reaction to this song, is SO BEAUTIFUL, Taehyung has this style that I love so much (Spoil: you will see something about thin in BTS In the soop)
I don't know why something in this song sounds like heartbeat!! Is it just me!! When i hear it i feel my heart beating fast
Oh you just said it okey it's not just me
That is an actual heartbeat that you are hearing. It was explained by NIve who helped Tae with this song.
@@silvergraniandhergrumpygno413 Ohh that makes sense! Tae songs are so relatable (but not just him.. lol guys don't worry I'm OT7 and after 7 years I discovered that my bias is Jhope. In general I'm more a Hyung Line person but I'm DEFINITELY NOT a solo stan. I'm saying this for army's that can misunderstand, it's not direct to you) 🥺💜💜
@@danielanunezalonso5683 I am OT7 also. I am a new Army having discovered BTS in March and since I’m retired I have lots of time to spend researching the boys. Jimin drew me first with his awesome vocals and devilish smile. But then I watched Jhope’s Chicken Noodle Soup and couldn’t get over his dance moves and melodious rap. V blew me away with his music, Blue and Grey is the best so far, and his sultry good looks. Jin (Happy Birthday) melted my heart with his angelic sounds and his boy next door charm while Suga on the other bowled me over with his mournful rap and Heathcliff qualities. RM ‘s forceful rap gets me every time and I feel like when he looks at you he sees into your soul (those dimples aren’t bad either). So I dare not say I have a bias ‘cause then the other 6 would be bias wreckers so my solution was simple- I adopted them as my grandchildren 🥰
@@silvergraniandhergrumpygno413 i didn't find a translation for wht he said i just know that he helped him producing it and i saw some tweets for wht he think about v and all of that
Can u send me a link
Actually I'm waiting for their explanation i hope v can talk more about the details of the production cause he just talked about the lyrics in his interview in weverse magazine
Here’s the link to Nlve’s video about helping V out with Blue and Grey
th-cam.com/video/7M-VdE3prFc/w-d-xo.html
This song is a master piece. From vocals to rapping to musical arrangements and lyrics 💜I can certainly say it’s my all time Bangtan favorite song!!! Keep loving and fighting boys, I purple you!!!!! ok it’s tied with 🦋.....☺️
i'm not gonna lie, i love bts's complex messages with their songs and albums, it's one of my favorite things about them, but I'm glad that (at least for me) blue and gray is just a song about being sad. no map of the soul, no overthinking, for me it's just like when things hurt so much for no apparent reason, and you just wanna cry and lay there. i realized just a few days ago how taehyung has so many posts on weverse about how he can't sleep, and i feel like he often might feel this way. it hurts me a lot, but it's also nice to feel understood.
every critics fav song in the album is BLUE AND GREY ! 👑 i’m so proud of V . that he produced and wrote this 😭❤️
i’m waiting for his mixtape .
I can’t choose my favorite between LGO and B&G
Fun fact : this song is supposed to be in KTH mixtape
Imagine how beautiful will KTH mixtape come out I can’t wait omgsksgwibsh
When you listen to Blue & Grey, you'll just get lost to it... Everything about this song is beautiful, their voices, the melody, the instruments and the lyrics. Love your reaction Aaron!
I think you'll fall in love with the original version, which is only taehyung singing it in english 🥺
This Song is so good!! Every times V sings oh this ground feels so heavier I’am singing by myself I get goosebumps!! Even though I know it’s coming 💜💜
Your reaction to this song was so identical to mine it is almost scary. One of the most beautifully sad 4+ minutes I have ever experienced.
credits to taehyung and nive: who made this beautiful arrangement music
Finally!!!!! AHHH!! I feel like I waited years for this reaction.
Taehyung wrote this song during his hardest time. He said that even the simplest things felt like a chore and he just lost motivation to continue. We can see that during the MOTS7 promotion. He became so depressed but thankfully he put all his emotions into his art and Blue and Grey and his future mixtape came about. And now, he's doing so much better. He is at his happiest 🥺💜
Thank you for reacting to this masterpiece, V wants everyone to give this song lots of love. As explained by lots of people below this song was written by him when he was at the lowest point of his life, and he wrote this as he didn't want to leave these feelings behind, and that's maybe because, as he said in those lyrics "Far in the future, if I smile I'll say that's how it used to be".
And finally someone reacting to a better lyric video of this beautiful song! Thank You so much!!
Finally everyone Stay safe and healthy!!
“My hands reached out innumerable time a colorless echo”
For me it felt like he was asking for help or trying to find comfort im something but couldn’t find it.
Most of the time when you’re sad you don’t really ask for comfort or help straight away, you leave hints in your words or actions, and when it doesn’t get noticed, it feels like “a colorless echo”
That’s how I interpret this sentence.
Also another line that really stood out to me was jhope’s “Rhino” coming towards him, I heard from other Armys that it was a reference to a book, I don’t remember the name, but the “Rhino” is basically depression, and you don’t notice it until it comes close to you, and it’s already big.
This song is really sad but at the same time really comforting ㅠㅠ
BLUE & GREY WRITTEN COMPOSED AND PRODUCED BY TAEHYUNG IM SO PROUD OF HIM. BLUE AND GREY DEBUT #13 ON BB HOT 100 😭 THE HIGHEST BTS BSIDE TRACK. #9 on BB 200. BTW. ITS SUPPOSED TO BE ENGLISH BUT TAE CHANGE IT TO KOREAN AFTER THEY DECIDED TO INCLUDE B&G ON BE.
To everyone who’s heard the song, congratulations
You didn’t miss out on a masterpiece, be it the lyrics, vocals, the rap, or the healing it does
If Taehyung wrote this, I already know what his Mixtape will be like, I'm 100% sure I'll cry seas
This is the most special song of the album. Thank you V for sharing this masterpiece.
When I first listened to this, I just know this is one of my all time favorite track by them, it just hits me in the feels everytime I listen to it. Also, you can check doolset's website for the lyrics translation, there are explanations for some of the references in the lyrics.
"Eco" is part of their storyline. "Narcissus", a mythological character with incredible beauty, fell in love with his own self after he saw his reflection in water. That's how the word narcissism came.(in the song "singularity" you can see V with the coat with his own hand. And there was reflection of him in the water) "Eco" is also a mythological character who fell in love with Narcissus. But he avoided her. Eco was known for her ability to speak. And her ability was lost. ( Singularity represents both Narcissus and Eco. V is Narcissus with beauty and self-love and also Eco with pain)
Every song v has ever written are my fav BTS song! This was so amazing
The jhope part where he says 'a grey
rhinoceros'. This line is very meaningful because it speak about how in our life when we are depressed and see our life falling apart, things are not working out the way we want but can't do anything at that time. That why he says 'looking it coming unfocused'.
Actually we all face difficult times and sometimes depression and in those times we don't want to do anything but still we feel so tired and weak.
My favorite song !
My favorite song
This is my favorite song from the album. So beautiful and full with emotions. 💜🥺
Finally you are reacting to blue &grey
BLUE & GREY is masterpiece by KING #KIMTAEHYUNG #V ....🤴🎉
#BTS 7 KINGS OUT OF THE BOX.. 🔥
LOVE ALL BTS OT7.💜
Broke my heart but yet comforting I love your reaction.
It really touches my heart Everytime I listen to this .. Taehyung really put his heart and soul into it .. he created it when he had the toughest time .. we can feel the pain .. it makes the song more beautiful and painful .. such a masterpiece ...
Oh my god Aaron, when you said your all time favourite bts songs I was surprised cause those are my favs as well! I had never come across someone that that the exact same top 3 as me ncjemkskamaj those are masterpieces
Blue & Grey just hit me differently when i hear this first time,
I’ve been waiting for you to listen to this song since forever. Thank you! This is my favorite. 💙🤍 it’s painfully beautiful.
thank you for "blue and grey" V 🥺
You are one of the few people whose reaction I love to watch and won't get tired. Thankyou for always being honest and respectful.😄💜 Also get well soon💜
I knew it that blue and grey gonna put you speechless!!!!!
Heard this song every day, i feel healing- thankyou bts, thankyou taehyung
So.....this song reflects the situation of a person who is suffering but cannot share coz people don't understand you and all they say is-'hey it's fine.. you're ok even if you're not'. V wrote this song when he was having a tough time so he note down all his feelings...and he converted that into a masterpiece 'Blue & Grey'
blue and grey makes me cry 😭😭
It's a song from taehyung's mixtape , so he wrote the lyrics which are personal to him and has nothing to do with the Bangtan Universe storyline , it was all in english and they just translated it in korean , he spoke about it in the BE press conference and his interview with Weverse Magazine
Thank you for your reaction. I love this song and your reaction:)
Simplemente no puedo evitar llorar cada vez que escucho esta canción,es demasiado hermosa 😭❤ es mi canción favorita del álbum ❤
You commenting on the instruments made me close my eyes and listen.....so much better! Thanks
I LOVE THIS!
Next, waiting for *Dis-ease* ✨
Finally Aaron, i was dying to see your album review.
it remind me of "so far away " very pretty and soulful
Atleast I have someone who have the same thoughts as mine 😭🤧
Thank you for your reaction, i enjoyed so much. Even in first listen i knew it was so sad and Heartbreaking song. İ loved all emotions in this song.
I was waiting for you listening to this song cuz I know you gonna love it.
I’m glad that you do reaction my Blue and grey song. I waited for you and finally!!! Thank you so so much. You are my fav!!!💜
GET WELL SOOOOON AARON!!💐🥺💜
This is my favorite track from this album. It is so vulnerable in letting people see when they are not doing well. It may seem strange as if is a sad song but it is incredibly comforting to me. V wrote this song to put on his mix tape and it was all in English. After the members heard it they wanted it for the album so he reworked it and changed the lyrics to include Korean and the rap parts were added. On their show In The Soop V played part of the origional while he was out on the river alone....the origional lyrics were even much more sad. Part of me hopes he will still put the English version on the mixtape but I also doubt it will happen.
Omg I’m here since you’ve had 41k subs last year, congrats! You’ve come this far and hope you and your channel would do well!
omg! thank you aaron
This song just ripped my soul apart...
My favorite song in BE
the moment i heard this song, i fell inlove with it. and I also knew that you'll love it too. this song, even without knowing the lyrics just hits you. their voice are feels raw and full of emotion and the melodies! damn the melodies are so beautiful i cried
I'm eagerly waiting for your reaction Aaron. I know that you will love it! ☺️☺️☺️
This is one of my favorites although all are just masterpieces. Taehyung wrote this when he was going through a rough period. Hope he's doing well and it's incredible how they share their feeling to armies through their songs. All of them did a brilliant job in the creation of this album.
Thie song is so beautiful, it gives me butterfly, serendipity, and scenery vibes all together
I don't know if you ever realize that V plays this song in BTS In The Soop in the middle of the lake.. But it only play V's part. Try check it out.. its exactly the same.
I cried...his song is beautiful
Been waiting for ur reaction Aaron coz u are always so honest & i knew u were gonna love this track ... When this BE album was dropped every ARMYs got melted & shed tears after listening to Blue & grey.... Thank you Aaron
this song is just pure healing 🥺
The moment this came out, I kept checking your channel if u have already reacted to this coz i know u would love this. I love ur reaction♡
hooah yes. This is so warm it melts me
This song never fails to make me tear up
beautiful song!!!💜 i love "Blue and grey"i love V😍
The truth is the more I listen to life goes on the more I am loving it..the song has its own charisma..
I love blue n grey...its kinda sad n soft song i feel like im crying😭
V💜💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
I already know what the reaction of Aaron hyung for this song 😉
Others groups music (like: BP)= cool...I loved it!! but BTS music...touch all my feelings and makes me cry... no one's ever done anything like that to me. I totally can relate!!
King Kim Taehyung 💜👑
Yes, it's a really great song to listen to.
I don't understand why every time I listen to this music I cry all my feelings come out 💜💜💜
I really like this song and the lyrics makes me cry 😭
I didn’t notice the heartbeat. But the song it warms the heart ❤️ 🥺
taehyung said he has sleeping problems.. that's what the ending he says he is sleeping at the dawn
that's what I expected from you Aaron , this song just melt the heart with a special way , it is relaxing from the first time you hear it.
I really love your reaction the way you analyze the song and beeing interested in everything vocals and melody and how the song developed from the first time surprises me every time, I haven't noticed a heartbeat since the first time, thank you I hope your channel becomes bigger, you really deserve more subscribers and I know You're interacting with other groups as well, so that's really cool because most of the reactors don't care about the details.
Have a good day 💜
Yes's finally you here now I miss you so much I watting your reaction thank you this Album is so nice
It definitely can be interpreted in many ways... As a person going thru somethig right now, All I want to feel is to be understood.. Like People who are going thru anxiety and depression all they ever want is to be feel happy and understood...the times we've tried to make things better and all you get back is disappointment... A grey animal more like my conscience that's telling me something and makes me question everything so I stay unfocused and the scene is unfamiliar coz I never felt something like that before.. And also the lyrics Don't say it's okay coz it's not okay more like don't say it's fine, it's just nothing, you gonna be alright...All those words doesn't make any sense coz no-one really knows what we are going thru..
It's a beautiful and such a heartfelt song and I relate to it on a personal level.. I cry everytime I listen to it..
To my dear ones out there.. Just know that you are not alone.. We are the real warriors.. You are not weak.. You can get thru this.. Please please don't fall for it.. You are stronger than you think you are.. We will find happiness ..we will get what we deserve....Hang on there..I relate to you and I love you💜💜💜💜
