Hi everyone, welcome back for Part 2 of my analysis of BTS's Tiny Desk Concert! It's been wonderful to see such a positive response and appreciation for my detailed breakdown of what's happening vocally, and overall musically in this awesome BTS performance. Just in case you missed Part 1, here's the link: th-cam.com/video/g8rSC0HLDgk/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for reacting to BTS and in-depth analysis! I'm very curious what would you think of their solo or unit songs :) One of my favourites is song "Telepathy" so hopefully one day you can check it :)
i feel like you would really enjoy their 2021 FESTA (Yearly Anniversary Celebration of the Group&Fans) BTS ROOM Live Performance. It's a Mash-up of a LOT of different songs, a little trip through their songs from oldest to newest and gives you a good sample of their catalogue. It also highlights a few of their pure rap songs! Excited to see you checking out more BTS, thanks for the reaction!
I would recommend also watch BTS Festa Room Live 2021. This is a medley of songs performed live, where they’re also up and moving around a little bit more. The songs included in the performance range from their first album in 2013 to their most recent album in 2020. Just a little background, “Festa” is what they call the annual celebration of their birthday as a group, from their debut date 6/13/13. They usually drop a lot of freebie content for their fans during the first couple weeks of June. This video came from the 2021 Festa.
there definitely is a backtrack, to give the performance a fuller sound and to patch little adlibs here and there that was originally done in the studio version. but in this performance, the backtrack can be easily picked apart from the live vocals, which is why it's my absolute favorite video when i just wanna bask in their voices!
RM, who is the guy in the denim suit, is quite fluent in English. In fact he has addressed the UN General Assembly in English. According to his own story, he learned English by listening to DVDs of the American television show Friends. He listened first with Korean subtitles, and then with English subtitles. Quite remarkable!
@@sabinegunzl RM was in New Zealand, but not even for a full semester... It was only a couple months. Jin visited Australia (as a student, for some weeks, not that long).
Just so you understand Jungkook and Jimin do most of the background vocals so they have to do a backing track to do all the harmonies. But he is used to doing all the harmonies so that was the reason for raising the mic to his mouth. It wasn't lip sync per se. The dedicated Baritone is V the one with the tie, even though while he was doing english he started singing higher. They are not all fluent in English just RM (the one with the blue hair) he also speaks in Japanese along with Jimin the one on the right end.
@@VAngel876 I've heard people saying Hobi has te best Japanese, but I don't speak the language. He also does a lot of the lower range background vocals, for example on DJ Swivel's explanation of his work mixing Magic Shop he shows his tracks, and there are videos about his "hidden vocals" here in TH-cam
18:01 J-hope and JK are actually singing together harmonizing. JK's the other voice you hear though it wasn't captured by the camera only focusing on J-hope.
RM is a baritone. And there is a backing track, and JK was mimicking the backing vocals. He's the main vocalist, so it makes sense he would. You can clearly hear the difference between the backing track and their live vocals.
For the "lip-sync" part, I think that what happened was that he was about to sing that line, but opted last second not to. It could be because of muscle memory. As you might have read from other comments, their performances are dance-heavy, and if they're not dancing they're still jumping and running around the stage. Since there's a lot of choreo and timing is very important for those kind of packed performances, they have to rely on muscle memory for choreos and some singing parts. They wouldn't be able to function with so many things to think about at the same time. Therefore, since this version was different than the one they usually perform, he might have been following his instincts implanted through the hours of training, and remembered just last second that he wasn't supposed to go for it for that version, so he just mouthed it. They use backing tracks to support the stability and fullness of their voices during performances or add extra layers of armonies. In the case of the last two songs however, I would almost consider those backing vocals more like voice samples that are part of the instrumentation, rather than singing support. Mainly because they could be distinguished very easily and they were purposely not singing in those sections. I don't know if I made any sense with this 😂
13:48 that’s Jimin, has natural high pitched voice,often gets mistaken as a girl singing(which makes him one of the most unique vocalist I’ve ever seen)
@@djlivvy46 The first time I heard Blood, Sweat & Tears and heard Jimin singing that first note I thought it was a female voice. It sounded so pretty and angelic to me. I had to quickly watch the MV to check it was really the BTS guys singing the whole song (and then was crazy impressed by the MV, but that's another thing lol). He sometimes does sound very feminine, sometimes just a guy with a high tone. I think it depends on the song and the way he sings, but it sounds gorgeous all around
Yeah, that was a backing track, they usually have that to provide more of the background vocals. They also are a dance-heavy group, so they'll use it (a backing track) occasionally when there's strenuous choreography preventing them from singing. To see more of them live I recommend watching the Armypedia live songs (No More Dream, Like, Just one Day) or the other MTV unplugged videos! (Blue and Grey, Life Goes On, Telepathy)
Having watched their Fix You cover of Coldplay's song, you would probably enjoy the collaboration they did with Coldplay doing My Universe. There is a music video of it and there is also a video of the according of the song in which Chris Martin from Coldplay travels to Korea during the pandemic and spends a couple of days recording the song with them. Fascinating project and the behind the scenes video left me a bit choked up.
JK was mimicking the back vocals cause this version is different than the ones they usually do. He isn’t lip syncing. If u noticed he put down his mic aswell. He’s their main vocalist. He’s literally the one who never hides behind any effects lol. He always sings even during vlives, during their run eps. If u check out Jungkook main vocalist by IDA S. Or if u react to just any Jungkook vocals video you’ll see.
RM, the guy in the denim started writing Spring Day one day in the park, staring at the trees. The song is really about his and Suga's (the rapper in the black jacket) experience with their friends from the past. The music video though is directly dedicated to the victims and families of the sewol ferry disaster and the lyrics are quite fitting.
I have watched dozens of clips and Jungcook (JK) often does this when some other members are singing, imitates without intention, because he enjoys performing so much because he has an incredible voice and doesn't need to prove anything when it comes to singing. Jimin who has the beautiful angelic voice was chosen as a member very late just before they debuted in 2013 . He was chosen for his years of Contemporary dance and hip hop dancing, he had no vocal training and virtually trained himself. He asked if he could watch the other vocalists having lessons then went back to their Dormitory and practised for hours in his own time training himself to sing. Also this an on-line concert for the fans. Thankyou for your reaction. They have evolved from 2013 to 2023 in many ways. They struggled during the Pandemic because they had to stop live concerts. 😊
Another example of their great live vocal abilities would be "Your Eyes Tell" live performance! It's crazy what they are doing there, and it is well balanced between the members. I would love to hear your opinion!!! Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/G3UnUH7TQvs/w-d-xo.html
There may well have been a backing track, however, BTS does not normally do any lip syncing. I understand they even rehearse they're singing while running on a machine so that they can develop their breath for singing while dancing.
The rappers RM and Suga are both baritones but so is V (Taehyung, green mic guy in the middle). Because the other three vocal line members are tenors, V ends up living in his head voice and mix most of the time. We hear his gorgeous low range on his solo works like Sweet Night, and his whole range on Stigma. 💜
6:30 yes it's not that deep XD, it's part of the original track and they never sing that part because they're doing the choreography, JK (purple mic) usually moves his lips and he sings parts of the songs that are not his parts (like the rap parts)
6:00 no he sang it really quietly bc thats how that part is meant to be LOL he was just kinda joining along with the small unnecessary parts of the song if u know what i mean, he wasnt lip syncing or anything
2 years after, maybe no one then will read this comment, not even Peter... But still I have to say it: he felt the humming, melancholic tone in their way to sing Spring day without knowing what is it about, even though he could read the lyrics. That's how powerful the singing is!!!!!! Spring day is, indeed, a gorgeous hopeful and at the same time melancholic and sad song. Me, personally, even though I have never experienced the kind of tragedy we know it is related to, still, this song makes me cry almost every time. It just breaks my heart beautifully... Every single time. Kudos for my amazing 7 lovely monkeys, making me feel stuffs. That's why I love them so much. Greetings to everyone.
There are some pre-recorded choirs; are parts of the song that Army (their fandom) sings at a concert, they left them as a reflection of nostalgia and because they miss being with Army. The one in the orange jacket with purple microphone is the main vocalist and his voice is very stable. The one in the floral shirt with the gold microphone is considered a light tenor or even a countertenor. And he is a lead vocalist. The one you mentioned was an example of a light falsetto, it's the only baritone in the vocal line; his voice is deep and soulful, but very versatile and with the widest range of the group.
10:12 thats RM hes fluent in english, he learnt english from watching the show friends. The other members like jimin, jungkook, jhope, are good at english enough to form sentences and have a conversation but they arent fluent. So RM is the speaker and translator of the group kinda.
BTS always has the backing track on all their songs because they are a dance heavy group. They are still in great shape, they practice singing on a treadmill so they can control their breathing when they dance while singing. They record the songs with all these adlibs and harmonies for the fullness and work on dance routines for their performances. That’s why they had a lull on the first song “Save Me” where all you heard was backing track because they do heavy choreography at that time. When you get to their mvs or their performance videos, you’ll see why. These men are consummate performers.
You should react to their cover of "I'll be missing you" it's amazing, they did such a great job on cover and it was a cover that I think a lot of people were a bit worried about and kind of wondering how it would go but they didn't fail to impress and were really respectful and did a great cover. It's definitely worth checking, it's honestly such a heavenly cover, their voices are just amazing so I highly recommend checking it out I would love to see your reaction to it!!!
I don't think he was intentionally lip-syncing, probably just out of habit because more than likely he did the backing track. He does most of the adlibs and harmonies for backing.
This song was written following the Sewol ferry disaster where the ferry boat was sunk killing more than 300 students who were on a day trip. Some of the emotion being shown by the singers is due to the depth of feelings about this disaster. If you watch the music video for this song as well as the explanations about the symbolism in the music video you will understand it a little bit better.
When Spring Day was first released this was probably the biggest theory about the song. However they've never confirmed that was the case. There might be some symbolism of it in the music video. There's been no official confirmation that the song was written in honor of the tragedy even though it's heartbreaking to hear about. The anniversary of the accident wasn't very long ago.
@@clairefranzen5753 RM has stated that the song was written that he was thinking about old friends one day, and that is what the lyrics are based on. As for the video, that’s definitely theory - acceptable theory yes, but theory all the same.
@@larewi6765 ... have you seen the "What you still don't know about BTS spring day"- video by Italian Army? That is actually convincing not that other vid people love to watch. And I think that there was something more recent when Jin was asked and said that it was to a specific incident or something similar. People have taken that he meant the disaster but understandable didn't want to mention the name. *shrugs* It is definetly a strong possibility especially if you also look at the choreo (the lyrics themselves were about the loss of friends/friendship).
it looks like everyone told you already, but you'll love their "festa 2022 room live" performance! it's a medley of their songs from 2013 to now and very diverse in style!
Something I think you might find interesting! The reason they usually only have 1 or 2 singers singing at a time, despite there being 7 of them, is bc their normal performances have a very strong emphasis on dance. So generally, the person singing at any one moment is doing less moving, whilst the other 6 do some very intense dancing. And obviously you need to breathe to do that. It’s why a lot of their songs are structured that way and you wouldn't necessarily notice in a stripped down performance like this one. I think this performance is a really good example of that if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/wSNd02kVv8o/w-d-xo.html
One thing about Spring day is that it has very contemporary choreography that goes along with it. So they're used to breathing in and taking larger breaths in certain places to compensate for holding a steady tone while they were moving.
The part in spring day where the boys weren’t singing the Whoa’s was actually the fandom singing (“ARMY”)….That’s why Jimin says “We love you ARMY” 💜🫰 The guy next to purple mic guy (JK) is the groups baritone normally…..catch him do live stage with the solo song “Stigma” ….his name is V (Taehyung). P.s just stumble across you & love your reactions extremely interesting. 👍
There is actually main vocal and lead vocal in bts. When you say the guy in orange jacket and the one with the yellow mic seem to take the lead, well because they are the main and lead vocalist. The orange jacket guy(purple mic) is the main vocalist while the yellow mic is the lead vocalis
Taehyung is actually their baritone (one in the vest) and has a solo song called Singularity where you hear more his his lower register. Nice neo soul track if you're interested in checking out,
6:00 that is a backing track yep! Since they also dance while singing, you will notice backing vocals thrown in here and there. They will either let the backing track play on its own or sometimes sing along depending on the performance. For sit down performances like this they probably keep the backing track pretty low so you can easily make out when they are actually singing.
This song has a lot of deep meaning behind it. Also it has continued to track on the charts since it 1st released. Queen Spring Day will live on the charts as long as their are ARMY left on this earth.
13:45 im literally smiling uncontrollably that you said this about Jimin's voice bc i literally love jimin so much. He's been my ultimate bias (favorite member) since the beginning and has had my heart. I love hearing peoples reactions to his voice and videos on him because it just melts my heart to hear people say nice things about him and i just love him.
Because this version differs from the way it's usually played, I think jk was lip syncing to that part because he usually sings the save me ee ee part, if you listen to the original way this song goes, you'd see what I'm talking about. It looked like he was doing it out of habit, then realized in this version he doesn't sing those parts. Idk if that made sense it's hard to explain but if you watch with the studio version or a different live I think it would make sense 💜 thank you for the reaction and breakdown
I know what you mean although it looked like it (so not blaming reactor for thinking it initially).. I wouldn’t say JK was lip syncing but probably like you said was going to sing out of habit then realising and pulled his mic away. I often see the boys mouthing even other members parts without mics during their concerts and other live performances. They only lip sync for music videos and have admitted that they are bad at it lol 😂
I'm loving your breakdown on RM's rap delivery (he's the one with blue hair). He's always been a spectacular artist that's caught my eye because of his rap, his melodies, and his lyrics. Just his whole style is so cool to see and listen to.
Thanks for your reaction. The singer with the purple mic, 'JK' is the lead singer of BTS & also lays down the master when recording for the rest to sing their parts to. Yes, there was a backing track, it is obvious and they are not trying to hide it - it is clearly audible & JK was singing along, just as there were horns playing in dynamite and no hon players in the band - not synthesized, etc. I think you would enjoy their hearing the vocalists in the group perform "House of Cards' live version, a song from years ago & 'Film Out' a Japanese track they recorded last year - the Music Blood or CDDT live versions have the best audio. Look forward to more BTS reactions, I enjoy your commentary! :)I love how you appreciate the instrumentation as well, the guitar, bass & drums were going ham, especially in 'Spring Day.'
Yes, there is a backing track. But Jungkook (the singer in the orange jacket) didn't actually mean to lip-sync the "save me-me-me" part--it was literally a timing mistake, where he forgot that they weren't singing that line live.
RM is the leader of the group and he learnt to speak English years ago watching friends, that's one of the reasons he's the leader because of his English skills and always takes the lead in interviews, but now the other guys are learning English and are doing really well. Spring Day was dedicated to the ferry disaster that happened in Korea years ago, and I feel guilty that I can't remember the name of the film that is about a train disaster 💜🔥💙
RM is amazing. He has a good ear for languages. He is able to switch his english from American sounding to British sounding with ease. Jimin's voice is so unique and beautiful. My favourite ❤
I admit I picked you up because of BTS, but your breakdown was so informative, that I have now gone to check out a few other artists. Ethos, I never excepted someone to use that term in a breakdown. I learned a great deal and you answered several questions I have about their styles. Thank you and glad I found you.
A large part of their preformances is their choreography. It would be cool to also see you check out a choreo focused preformance to see how they preform and sing/rap all together
I "came in" on Spring Day...and have never looked back. Really enjoy your break downs. So interesting and enjoyable! I'm glad you are sharing that gift with the world, too.
Rm(Kim namjoon) the rapper with blue hair is the only one fluent in English he actually learned English by watching the show friends and rm is also the leader of the group and often gives the other members help with speeches or helping them pronounce words in English also his stage name is rm which stands for rap monster.
I would recommend checking out some of their Japanese singles as they have some of my favorite vocals from the boys. If you want to focus on one singer at a time, they all have solo projects they’ve released. Thank you for giving them so much love!!
Their vocals sound so tight and rehearsed because they are normally dancing during these songs. That also accounts for the music breaks in the vocals ;-) The vocals have to be SO solid. Definitely check out the live versions, it’s a sight to behold ;-) It’s also worth looking up their vocals when they are warming up backstage or messing around- their runs are sickeningly clean. Thanks for the video, love the analysis!!
Bc the majority of their songs are usually performed with an accompanying dance routine or in large stadiums they almost always have some sort of backing track to get the right sound mix & help fill in where they might need a breath. That particular part in Save ME is a dance break where they are dancing very hard & energetic choreo so they don't sing those "save me, me, me" parts & just let the backing track play. For future reference on this, BTS don't bother to lip sync, it'll be very obvious if they're just letting the backing track play (you'll see this a bit more clearly in, for instance, Jimin's solo performances of Serendipity as his main focus for certain parts of the song are the choreo over the vocals so he'll just let the backing track take over & doesn't bother trying to "fake" that he's singing bc he isn't for that part though he is singing over the backing track the other 80% of the time). Not sure if this is something you're aware of, but BTS most definitely employ the backing track & live sound mixing techniques that MJ pioneered & perfected, so if you pay attention during their live stages with choreo you'll notice the hallmarks of those techniques (backing tracks low in the mix but enough there to pad out any rough spots during choreo while allowing the live vocal to cut through & shine, only certain small sections/vocal chops being brought forward in the mix for artistic affect & emphasis, etc). They write their songs WITH the dancing & performance of that song live on a stage in mind so that they can majority of the time be able to sing it live & achieve that full bodied sound
what you pointed about that “me, me, me” was definitely no live singing. they do like to mouth or sing the words (even if its not their part, for example) though. I know tiny desk is usually super raw but bts like to have fuller sounds s, I would say, so you might hear pre-recorded (or usually taken from their studio version) adlibs
Thanks for the very educational reaction! I noticed you were talking about lead singers in the group and I wanted to give some insight into that. So, in kpop (especially older kpop groups), the different artists have assigned positions in the group. The three most common positions are: vocalists, rappers and dancers (there are also other positions like leader, center etc., but let's not get into those for now). These positions are usually sub-categorized to main, lead and sub roles. You correctly recognized the main and lead vocalists in BTS from this concert! Jungkook (purple mic, orange suit jacket) is the main vocalist. As a main vocalist he does the vocal guides for their songs and most of the backing vocals on their tracks are done by him, for example. He also gets a lot of lines, but him also having the 'center' position contributes to that. Jimin (golden mic, the one on the far right) it the lead vocalist. The other guys in BTS 'vocal line' are categorized as sub vocalists, although depending on the song, all of them can take lead roles in my opinion. In BTS the offical positions (going in order from left to right in the tiny desk concert) are: J-Hope: Main Dancer, Sub Rapper, Sub Vocalist Suga: Lead Rapper Jungkook: Main Vocalist, Lead Dancer, Sub Rapper, Center, Maknae (youngest) V: Lead Dancer, Sub Vocalist, Visual Jin: Sub Vocalist, Visual RM: Leader, Main Rapper Jimin: Main Dancer, Lead Vocalist Also, if you want to hear a bass vocal in kpop, check out Stray Kids! They just had a comeback single called Maniac. Very rare to find bass vocals in any pop music, let alone kpop, but I love to see it and I think you would too! :) (I also remember you said you liked dubstep in one of your previous reactions, and Stray Kids do dubstep in many of their songs like Freeze that also just got a music video) Maniac mv: th-cam.com/video/OvioeS1ZZ7o/w-d-xo.html Maniac live on a radio show: th-cam.com/video/G9SEes4TcRg/w-d-xo.html Freeze mv: th-cam.com/video/etjQd0wgUTo/w-d-xo.html
Duuude, I felt like the second part took forever 😭 one week is a lifetime 😂 Thanks for the video, really appreciate your BTS videos, and I hope you'll continue this journey. Army would love to be part of it 💜🇩🇿
6:06 Couse he wasn't trying to sing that part!it was a backing track only!He was just saying the "me me me" part with himself! He never sing that pert !you can tell by the difference between how their actual voice sounds like comparing to how low backing tracks are like. so its not a lip sync part you didn't need to explain that his voice wasn't different with the mic away for like 3 mins you're making it too complicated for yourself . He often moves his mouth in different part of the song couse he is vibing with it
@@kimberlynrios4755 I'm not trying to mob him or anything i think he had a good reaction. he was talking about how jk's voice didn't change when the mic was away and made a point about it which was just a misunderstandings couse that was just a backing track and he was only moving his mouse so i wanted to make it clear ,that's what he always do while vibing with a song and it's not a big deal . Of course there is no problem with back tracks but In my opinion lip sync isn't ok . I know he wasn't trying to question his singing i wanted to clarify the misunderstanding
@@kimberlynrios4755 lol, how can 3 seconds where JK just vibed to the song can be ever called lipsync? I hate these things, let's enjoy the song instead of arguing
6:00 nothing really happened here lmao he probably thought about singing along to the “save me, me, me” part, but didn’t. which is why he brought the mic up and put it back down.
Yeas they have different positions main lead and sub vocals, dancers and rapers. This is something that influences in they responsibilities. For exemplo JK (the guy in orange suit) is the main vocal, because his voice is the more stable so he used to have more lines and he is responsable for recording the vocal guide to help the others, Jimin the guy on the right is lead vocal, so he is normally responsable for sing the parts they want want to highlight. It doesn't means that in some songs they don't do different, but it is how normally goes.
Thank you for your reaction. I really enjoyed your breakdown and analysis. I'd love to see you react to and analyze the rest of their MTV Unplugged videos ("Fix You" is one of them. There are five in total). On of them, "Blue and Grey", is a beautiful ballad.
They actually do have "lead singers" - although song by song it's not about who sings the most. Jungkook (purple mic) is the main vocalist, in the center of most ensemble pieces. His voice is generally regarded as the most stable & a lot of songs come back to him again and again for repeated chorus or prechorus sections. He's also incredibly adaptable (there are a zillion videos of him doing lots of stuff with his voice) and blends really well when he's on harmonies. The other three vocalists all have different colors/tonal qualities and they arrange songs to make use of those qualities while still passing the melody around. And a couple of the rappers sing sometimes as well - especially JHope, which we see here on Spring Day especially. As main vocal, Jungkook actually lays down the vast majority of the harmonies and ad libs on their backing tracks, so whether or not he was singing in that little moment on Save Me, it's probably him on the backing track. The guys are notoriously terrible at lip sync, which is funny because they're good at everything else.
Thank you for appreciating the boys. Even if you don’t know them but I’m glad you appreciate each one’s unique voices. Thank you also for appreciating Jin’s (pink mic) vocals, his high and lower register. I love your reaction as a professional singer /musician
Jungkook the guy with the purple microphone is actually the MAIN VOCALIST so his "position" is higher than the other vocalists. Jimin the guy with the orange microphone is the LEAD VOCALIST his "position" is below the main. Taehyung / V the guy with the green microphone and Jin the guy with the pink microphone are the VOCALIST so their "position" is below the main and the lead. Same with the Rappers RM the guy with the blue microphone he is the MAIN RAPPER. Suga the guy with the black microphone is the LEAD RAPPER and J-hope the guy with the red microphone is a RAPPER but he is also a SUB VOCALIST Pls correct me if I am wrong in any of the information i stated. 😅 Btw the also dance they have a dance line (like vocal line and rap line) The dance line includes Jhope, V, Jungkook, and Jimin
there are no rankings tbh. yes, they have official "positions" but after 9 years of being together, they decide the roles based on who fits them the most. jungkook still does cover majority of the vocals and ad libs so he'd still be fit to be called the main vocalist. i don't agree w the rappers' positions all too much w their recent works as context
@@taesfilter3026 I get what your saying but the position ls still do matter to a certain extent like jk will always be the main vocalist and does majority of the runs and adlibs.
Wow I really enjoyed your reaction/review and analysis!!! These guys are so talented I love them so much and spring day always tears me up a little bit what a great song!
you should react to the house of cards and the truth untold live. its just the vocal line but both songs are amazing live. also dimple & pied piper live also amazing
Jungkook the orange jacket really good conveying emotion through his voices that’s how I like about his style, he never disappoint me with this. He has an art through his voice he know exactly how delivered the right feelings and leave listeners captivated more to the song .
@@kooquette2 i think he meant in western term...not k-pop. We know in k-pop term main vocalist and lead vocalist is not the same. In western...main vocalist= lead vocalist. When I first got to know K-pop I was confused and also thought main/lead vocalist is the same.
I hadnt heard the guitar in the BG of Save me despite having watched that video several times. that's what I love about seeing these reactions. I keep learning about these little parts that I didnt notice before
Peter! I really appreciate how you pay attention to all the artists in the room even if the focus is vocals. Their band is called Ghost, and the drummer goes by Khan. ☺️ He's on TH-cam!
Btw we would care about what you have to say about them talking. Most Armys arent fans just for music but for them as people. You will find out why in time. Music is just some part of being in fandom.
Especially here, where they are talking about the music. I'm very sad he skipped those parts. He really missed out, and would have gained a bit more insight.
Hi everyone, welcome back for Part 2 of my analysis of BTS's Tiny Desk Concert! It's been wonderful to see such a positive response and appreciation for my detailed breakdown of what's happening vocally, and overall musically in this awesome BTS performance. Just in case you missed Part 1, here's the link: th-cam.com/video/g8rSC0HLDgk/w-d-xo.html
Really liked your reaction. Hope you’ll do more BTS in future.
I’ll suggest V Singularity live performance next
Great reaction...hope you would react to Film out live performance or maybe Your eyes tell live performance... thanks

Thank you for reacting to BTS and in-depth analysis! I'm very curious what would you think of their solo or unit songs :) One of my favourites is song "Telepathy" so hopefully one day you can check it :)
i feel like you would really enjoy their 2021 FESTA (Yearly Anniversary Celebration of the Group&Fans) BTS ROOM Live Performance.

i would love to see him reacting to that
It would be so interesting to hear an opinion of a professional!
That would be really cool, great idea c:
Yes! I was just coming here to say that!
oya totally agree 👍
I would recommend also watch BTS Festa Room Live 2021. This is a medley of songs performed live, where they’re also up and moving around a little bit more. The songs included in the performance range from their first album in 2013 to their most recent album in 2020.
Just a little background, “Festa” is what they call the annual celebration of their birthday as a group, from their debut date 6/13/13. They usually drop a lot of freebie content for their fans during the first couple weeks of June. This video came from the 2021 Festa.

RM, who is the guy in the denim suit, is quite fluent in English. In fact he has addressed the UN General Assembly in English. According to his own story, he learned English by listening to DVDs of the American television show Friends. He listened first with Korean subtitles, and then with English subtitles. Quite remarkable!
And then he finished his 'training' by watching it without any subtitles at all! 🙂
he was in new Zealand for a short time aswell but yes he taught himself most of it
@@sabinegunzl If I'm not mistaken it was Jin who went to New Zealand
Maybe both ?
@@sabinegunzl RM was in New Zealand, but not even for a full semester... It was only a couple months. Jin visited Australia (as a student, for some weeks, not that long).
I add my vote for you checking out “Film Out” and/or “Your Eyes Tell” live performances. These songs are their recent Japanese songs.
Yes!!!!
Gorgeous gorgeous pieces, particularly "Your Eyes Tell."
yes pls
YES
Oh I was gonna suggest the same exact songs. FILM OUT and YOUR EYES TELL. And then HOUSE OF CARDS.
“your eyes tell” and “truth untold” are really great vocal based songs to check out!
Don't forget the queen House of cards!
Just so you understand Jungkook and Jimin do most of the background vocals so they have to do a backing track to do all the harmonies. But he is used to doing all the harmonies so that was the reason for raising the mic to his mouth. It wasn't lip sync per se. The dedicated Baritone is V the one with the tie, even though while he was doing english he started singing higher. They are not all fluent in English just RM (the one with the blue hair) he also speaks in Japanese along with Jimin the one on the right end.
Doesn't jhope also speak Japanese?
Actually they all speak a bit of Japanese but fluently it's RM and Jimin.
@@VAngel876 I've heard people saying Hobi has te best Japanese, but I don't speak the language. He also does a lot of the lower range background vocals, for example on DJ Swivel's explanation of his work mixing Magic Shop he shows his tracks, and there are videos about his "hidden vocals" here in TH-cam
You missed the main person who is always highly appreciated by Japanese audience, my man Jin is most fluent in Japanese in the group
@@VAngel876 its Jin too. Jin is highly appreciated by JArmys for his perfect pronunciation
18:01 J-hope and JK are actually singing together harmonizing. JK's the other voice you hear though it wasn't captured by the camera only focusing on J-hope.
RM is a baritone. And there is a backing track, and JK was mimicking the backing vocals. He's the main vocalist, so it makes sense he would. You can clearly hear the difference between the backing track and their live vocals.
Spring Day was released in 2017, and even to this day is still on the charts in Korea.
The queen
JK (who has perfect pitch btw) does so many layers of backup for their recordings that RM (the leader of the group) has called him "the DNA of BTS"
Yes
For the "lip-sync" part, I think that what happened was that he was about to sing that line, but opted last second not to. It could be because of muscle memory. As you might have read from other comments, their performances are dance-heavy, and if they're not dancing they're still jumping and running around the stage. Since there's a lot of choreo and timing is very important for those kind of packed performances, they have to rely on muscle memory for choreos and some singing parts. They wouldn't be able to function with so many things to think about at the same time. Therefore, since this version was different than the one they usually perform, he might have been following his instincts implanted through the hours of training, and remembered just last second that he wasn't supposed to go for it for that version, so he just mouthed it.
They use backing tracks to support the stability and fullness of their voices during performances or add extra layers of armonies. In the case of the last two songs however, I would almost consider those backing vocals more like voice samples that are part of the instrumentation, rather than singing support. Mainly because they could be distinguished very easily and they were purposely not singing in those sections.
I don't know if I made any sense with this 😂
great comment, you explained everything perfectly!😊
Those ad-libs pre-recorded were from Jin.
13:48 that’s Jimin, has natural high pitched voice,often gets mistaken as a girl singing(which makes him one of the most unique vocalist I’ve ever seen)
It's weird because I've never thought he sounds like a girl, but then I loved listening to Michael Jackson and Prince back in the day.
@@djlivvy46 The first time I heard Blood, Sweat & Tears and heard Jimin singing that first note I thought it was a female voice. It sounded so pretty and angelic to me. I had to quickly watch the MV to check it was really the BTS guys singing the whole song (and then was crazy impressed by the MV, but that's another thing lol). He sometimes does sound very feminine, sometimes just a guy with a high tone. I think it depends on the song and the way he sings, but it sounds gorgeous all around
@@djlivvy46 i agree he doesnt sound like a girl at all.
@@taetaetrash9728 - which female singer do you think he sounds similar to?
I forgot about the Bee Gees. Now THAT was some high singing! 😂😂
Mic purple :jungkook
Mic red: j hope
Mic gold : jimin
Mic green :taehyung
Mic pink : jin
Mic blue : RM
Mic black : suga
yes! wish peter would their names . respect !
Yeah, that was a backing track, they usually have that to provide more of the background vocals. They also are a dance-heavy group, so they'll use it (a backing track) occasionally when there's strenuous choreography preventing them from singing.
To see more of them live I recommend watching the Armypedia live songs (No More Dream, Like, Just one Day) or the other MTV unplugged videos! (Blue and Grey, Life Goes On, Telepathy)
Having watched their Fix You cover of Coldplay's song, you would probably enjoy the collaboration they did with Coldplay doing My Universe. There is a music video of it and there is also a video of the according of the song in which Chris Martin from Coldplay travels to Korea during the pandemic and spends a couple of days recording the song with them. Fascinating project and the behind the scenes video left me a bit choked up.
JK was mimicking the back vocals cause this version is different than the ones they usually do. He isn’t lip syncing. If u noticed he put down his mic aswell. He’s their main vocalist. He’s literally the one who never hides behind any effects lol. He always sings even during vlives, during their run eps. If u check out Jungkook main vocalist by IDA S. Or if u react to just any Jungkook vocals video you’ll see.
Exactamente, gracias por explicarlo!!!
RM, the guy in the denim started writing Spring Day one day in the park, staring at the trees. The song is really about his and Suga's (the rapper in the black jacket) experience with their friends from the past. The music video though is directly dedicated to the victims and families of the sewol ferry disaster and the lyrics are quite fitting.
I have watched dozens of clips and Jungcook (JK) often does this when some other members are singing, imitates without intention, because he enjoys performing so much because he has an incredible voice and doesn't need to prove anything when it comes to singing. Jimin who has the beautiful angelic voice was chosen as a member very late just before they debuted in 2013 . He was chosen for his years of Contemporary dance and hip hop dancing, he had no vocal training and virtually trained himself. He asked if he could watch the other vocalists having lessons then went back to their Dormitory and practised for hours in his own time training himself to sing. Also this an on-line concert for the fans. Thankyou for your reaction. They have evolved from 2013 to 2023 in many ways. They struggled during the Pandemic because they had to stop live concerts. 😊
Another example of their great live vocal abilities would be "Your Eyes Tell" live performance! It's crazy what they are doing there, and it is well balanced between the members. I would love to hear your opinion!!!
Here's the link:
th-cam.com/video/G3UnUH7TQvs/w-d-xo.html
There may well have been a backing track, however, BTS does not normally do any lip syncing. I understand they even rehearse they're singing while running on a machine so that they can develop their breath for singing while dancing.
The rappers RM and Suga are both baritones but so is V (Taehyung, green mic guy in the middle). Because the other three vocal line members are tenors, V ends up living in his head voice and mix most of the time. We hear his gorgeous low range on his solo works like Sweet Night, and his whole range on Stigma. 💜
6:30 yes it's not that deep XD, it's part of the original track and they never sing that part because they're doing the choreography, JK (purple mic) usually moves his lips and he sings parts of the songs that are not his parts (like the rap parts)
What you said that moment with mi mi, he just records the background for more than 142 songs of his group
Yes😊
6:55 about this moment, yeah that's just background vocals! :) i don't think jk was trying to lip sync it, more like he got lost in the music haha
6:00 honestly no one really sings that part he’s just mouthing the words (just a backtrack)
6:00 no he sang it really quietly bc thats how that part is meant to be LOL he was just kinda joining along with the small unnecessary parts of the song if u know what i mean, he wasnt lip syncing or anything
2 years after, maybe no one then will read this comment, not even Peter... But still I have to say it: he felt the humming, melancholic tone in their way to sing Spring day without knowing what is it about, even though he could read the lyrics.
That's how powerful the singing is!!!!!! Spring day is, indeed, a gorgeous hopeful and at the same time melancholic and sad song. Me, personally, even though I have never experienced the kind of tragedy we know it is related to, still, this song makes me cry almost every time.
It just breaks my heart beautifully... Every single time.
Kudos for my amazing 7 lovely monkeys, making me feel stuffs. That's why I love them so much.
Greetings to everyone.
There are some pre-recorded choirs; are parts of the song that Army (their fandom) sings at a concert, they left them as a reflection of nostalgia and because they miss being with Army.
The one in the orange jacket with purple microphone is the main vocalist and his voice is very stable.
The one in the floral shirt with the gold microphone is considered a light tenor or even a countertenor. And he is a lead vocalist.
The one you mentioned was an example of a light falsetto, it's the only baritone in the vocal line; his voice is deep and soulful, but very versatile and with the widest range of the group.
10:12 thats RM hes fluent in english, he learnt english from watching the show friends. The other members like jimin, jungkook, jhope, are good at english enough to form sentences and have a conversation but they arent fluent. So RM is the speaker and translator of the group kinda.
BTS always has the backing track on all their songs because they are a dance heavy group. They are still in great shape, they practice singing on a treadmill so they can control their breathing when they dance while singing. They record the songs with all these adlibs and harmonies for the fullness and work on dance routines for their performances. That’s why they had a lull on the first song “Save Me” where all you heard was backing track because they do heavy choreography at that time. When you get to their mvs or their performance videos, you’ll see why. These men are consummate performers.
You should react to their cover of "I'll be missing you" it's amazing, they did such a great job on cover and it was a cover that I think a lot of people were a bit worried about and kind of wondering how it would go but they didn't fail to impress and were really respectful and did a great cover. It's definitely worth checking, it's honestly such a heavenly cover, their voices are just amazing so I highly recommend checking it out I would love to see your reaction to it!!!
I don't think he was intentionally lip-syncing, probably just out of habit because more than likely he did the backing track. He does most of the adlibs and harmonies for backing.
This song was written following the Sewol ferry disaster where the ferry boat was sunk killing more than 300 students who were on a day trip. Some of the emotion being shown by the singers is due to the depth of feelings about this disaster. If you watch the music video for this song as well as the explanations about the symbolism in the music video you will understand it a little bit better.
The song is not about Sewol, RM wrote this song about missing friends. The video is theoried to be about Sewol.
That is a misinformation. The mv is about the tragedy, the song, however, isn’t.
When Spring Day was first released this was probably the biggest theory about the song. However they've never confirmed that was the case. There might be some symbolism of it in the music video. There's been no official confirmation that the song was written in honor of the tragedy even though it's heartbreaking to hear about. The anniversary of the accident wasn't very long ago.
@@clairefranzen5753 RM has stated that the song was written that he was thinking about old friends one day, and that is what the lyrics are based on. As for the video, that’s definitely theory - acceptable theory yes, but theory all the same.
@@larewi6765 ... have you seen the "What you still don't know about BTS spring day"- video by Italian Army? That is actually convincing not that other vid people love to watch.
And I think that there was something more recent when Jin was asked and said that it was to a specific incident or something similar. People have taken that he meant the disaster but understandable didn't want to mention the name. *shrugs*
It is definetly a strong possibility especially if you also look at the choreo (the lyrics themselves were about the loss of friends/friendship).
it looks like everyone told you already, but you'll love their "festa 2022 room live" performance! it's a medley of their songs from 2013 to now and very diverse in style!
The wooohoo part was Army's part... Of course they'd leave it. Of course Jimin yelled 'I miss you Army'... How I cried that day.
Backing track is there but very low, JK the orange suit(whom who you said has clear voice)guy is main vocalist , did 95% adlibs here and left 5%
Something I think you might find interesting! The reason they usually only have 1 or 2 singers singing at a time, despite there being 7 of them, is bc their normal performances have a very strong emphasis on dance. So generally, the person singing at any one moment is doing less moving, whilst the other 6 do some very intense dancing. And obviously you need to breathe to do that. It’s why a lot of their songs are structured that way and you wouldn't necessarily notice in a stripped down performance like this one.
I think this performance is a really good example of that if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/wSNd02kVv8o/w-d-xo.html
you'll understand when you see them performing 'save me' with dancing why there's backtract..🤣🤣
One thing about Spring day is that it has very contemporary choreography that goes along with it. So they're used to breathing in and taking larger breaths in certain places to compensate for holding a steady tone while they were moving.
The guy on the right 😉 is Jimin...voice of an angel. But I love when he "growls" in Danger and other songs!!!
The part in spring day where the boys weren’t singing the Whoa’s was actually the fandom singing (“ARMY”)….That’s why Jimin says “We love you ARMY” 💜🫰
The guy next to purple mic guy (JK) is the groups baritone normally…..catch him do live stage with the solo song “Stigma” ….his name is V (Taehyung).
P.s just stumble across you & love your reactions extremely interesting. 👍
There is actually main vocal and lead vocal in bts. When you say the guy in orange jacket and the one with the yellow mic seem to take the lead, well because they are the main and lead vocalist. The orange jacket guy(purple mic) is the main vocalist while the yellow mic is the lead vocalis
Taehyung is actually their baritone (one in the vest) and has a solo song called Singularity where you hear more his his lower register. Nice neo soul track if you're interested in checking out,
6:00 that is a backing track yep! Since they also dance while singing, you will notice backing vocals thrown in here and there. They will either let the backing track play on its own or sometimes sing along depending on the performance.
For sit down performances like this they probably keep the backing track pretty low so you can easily make out when they are actually singing.
This is so detailed. I learned a lot I must say
This song has a lot of deep meaning behind it. Also it has continued to track on the charts since it 1st released. Queen Spring Day will live on the charts as long as their are ARMY left on this earth.
13:45 im literally smiling uncontrollably that you said this about Jimin's voice bc i literally love jimin so much. He's been my ultimate bias (favorite member) since the beginning and has had my heart. I love hearing peoples reactions to his voice and videos on him because it just melts my heart to hear people say nice things about him and i just love him.
I'm getting to this so late but I just laughed out loud (happily!) at the assumption that they're all fluent in English. 😂 They all work hard!
Because this version differs from the way it's usually played, I think jk was lip syncing to that part because he usually sings the save me ee ee part, if you listen to the original way this song goes, you'd see what I'm talking about. It looked like he was doing it out of habit, then realized in this version he doesn't sing those parts. Idk if that made sense it's hard to explain but if you watch with the studio version or a different live I think it would make sense 💜 thank you for the reaction and breakdown
I know what you mean although it looked like it (so not blaming reactor for thinking it initially).. I wouldn’t say JK was lip syncing but probably like you said was going to sing out of habit then realising and pulled his mic away. I often see the boys mouthing even other members parts without mics during their concerts and other live performances. They only lip sync for music videos and have admitted that they are bad at it lol 😂
@@3k2jpm18 yeah exactly lol. And I wasn't trying to blame the reactor either, I hope it didn't come across that way 😬
@@pslinky no it didn’t at all.. 💜☺️💜
@@3k2jpm18 whew ty lol, Borahae 💜
I'm loving your breakdown on RM's rap delivery (he's the one with blue hair). He's always been a spectacular artist that's caught my eye because of his rap, his melodies, and his lyrics. Just his whole style is so cool to see and listen to.
Same!
Thanks for your reaction. The singer with the purple mic, 'JK' is the lead singer of BTS & also lays down the master when recording for the rest to sing their parts to. Yes, there was a backing track, it is obvious and they are not trying to hide it - it is clearly audible & JK was singing along, just as there were horns playing in dynamite and no hon players in the band - not synthesized, etc. I think you would enjoy their hearing the vocalists in the group perform "House of Cards' live version, a song from years ago & 'Film Out' a Japanese track they recorded last year - the Music Blood or CDDT live versions have the best audio. Look forward to more BTS reactions, I enjoy your commentary! :)I love how you appreciate the instrumentation as well, the guitar, bass & drums were going ham, especially in 'Spring Day.'
Yes, there is a backing track. But Jungkook (the singer in the orange jacket) didn't actually mean to lip-sync the "save me-me-me" part--it was literally a timing mistake, where he forgot that they weren't singing that line live.
24:58 so much fun to see you start singing the bass line, Peter! Thanks for Part 2 of this analysis.
RM is the leader of the group and he learnt to speak English years ago watching friends, that's one of the reasons he's the leader because of his English skills and always takes the lead in interviews, but now the other guys are learning English and are doing really well. Spring Day was dedicated to the ferry disaster that happened in Korea years ago, and I feel guilty that I can't remember the name of the film that is about a train disaster 💜🔥💙
RM is amazing. He has a good ear for languages. He is able to switch his english from American sounding to British sounding with ease. Jimin's voice is so unique and beautiful. My favourite ❤
I admit I picked you up because of BTS, but your breakdown was so informative, that I have now gone to check out a few other artists. Ethos, I never excepted someone to use that term in a breakdown. I learned a great deal and you answered several questions I have about their styles. Thank you and glad I found you.
I really really want him to see Bts's contribution to music, as much as he respects the artistry it could be right up his alley!
A large part of their preformances is their choreography. It would be cool to also see you check out a choreo focused preformance to see how they preform and sing/rap all together
I would not say it’s a large part, since at least half the songs don’t even have choreo.
@@priiifrg it's a large part of who they are so yes it's a large part
@@priiifrg out of 400 BTS songs, almost 200 songs have choreo(easy to difficult)
I "came in" on Spring Day...and have never looked back. Really enjoy your break downs. So interesting and enjoyable! I'm glad you are sharing that gift with the world, too.
Rm(Kim namjoon) the rapper with blue hair is the only one fluent in English he actually learned English by watching the show friends and rm is also the leader of the group and often gives the other members help with speeches or helping them pronounce words in English also his stage name is rm which stands for rap monster.
I would recommend checking out some of their Japanese singles as they have some of my favorite vocals from the boys. If you want to focus on one singer at a time, they all have solo projects they’ve released. Thank you for giving them so much love!!
Their vocals sound so tight and rehearsed because they are normally dancing during these songs. That also accounts for the music breaks in the vocals ;-) The vocals have to be SO solid. Definitely check out the live versions, it’s a sight to behold ;-) It’s also worth looking up their vocals when they are warming up backstage or messing around- their runs are sickeningly clean. Thanks for the video, love the analysis!!
Bc the majority of their songs are usually performed with an accompanying dance routine or in large stadiums they almost always have some sort of backing track to get the right sound mix & help fill in where they might need a breath. That particular part in Save ME is a dance break where they are dancing very hard & energetic choreo so they don't sing those "save me, me, me" parts & just let the backing track play.
For future reference on this, BTS don't bother to lip sync, it'll be very obvious if they're just letting the backing track play (you'll see this a bit more clearly in, for instance, Jimin's solo performances of Serendipity as his main focus for certain parts of the song are the choreo over the vocals so he'll just let the backing track take over & doesn't bother trying to "fake" that he's singing bc he isn't for that part though he is singing over the backing track the other 80% of the time).
Not sure if this is something you're aware of, but BTS most definitely employ the backing track & live sound mixing techniques that MJ pioneered & perfected, so if you pay attention during their live stages with choreo you'll notice the hallmarks of those techniques (backing tracks low in the mix but enough there to pad out any rough spots during choreo while allowing the live vocal to cut through & shine, only certain small sections/vocal chops being brought forward in the mix for artistic affect & emphasis, etc).
They write their songs WITH the dancing & performance of that song live on a stage in mind so that they can majority of the time be able to sing it live & achieve that full bodied sound
what you pointed about that “me, me, me” was definitely no live singing. they do like to mouth or sing the words (even if its not their part, for example) though. I know tiny desk is usually super raw but bts like to have fuller sounds s, I would say, so you might hear pre-recorded (or usually taken from their studio version) adlibs
I've been looking forward to this. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the very educational reaction! I noticed you were talking about lead singers in the group and I wanted to give some insight into that.
So, in kpop (especially older kpop groups), the different artists have assigned positions in the group. The three most common positions are: vocalists, rappers and dancers (there are also other positions like leader, center etc., but let's not get into those for now). These positions are usually sub-categorized to main, lead and sub roles.
You correctly recognized the main and lead vocalists in BTS from this concert!
Jungkook (purple mic, orange suit jacket) is the main vocalist. As a main vocalist he does the vocal guides for their songs and most of the backing vocals on their tracks are done by him, for example. He also gets a lot of lines, but him also having the 'center' position contributes to that.
Jimin (golden mic, the one on the far right) it the lead vocalist. The other guys in BTS 'vocal line' are categorized as sub vocalists, although depending on the song, all of them can take lead roles in my opinion.
In BTS the offical positions (going in order from left to right in the tiny desk concert) are:
J-Hope: Main Dancer, Sub Rapper, Sub Vocalist
Suga: Lead Rapper
Jungkook: Main Vocalist, Lead Dancer, Sub Rapper, Center, Maknae (youngest)
V: Lead Dancer, Sub Vocalist, Visual
Jin: Sub Vocalist, Visual
RM: Leader, Main Rapper
Jimin: Main Dancer, Lead Vocalist
Also, if you want to hear a bass vocal in kpop, check out Stray Kids! They just had a comeback single called Maniac. Very rare to find bass vocals in any pop music, let alone kpop, but I love to see it and I think you would too! :)
(I also remember you said you liked dubstep in one of your previous reactions, and Stray Kids do dubstep in many of their songs like Freeze that also just got a music video)
Maniac mv: th-cam.com/video/OvioeS1ZZ7o/w-d-xo.html

Duuude, I felt like the second part took forever 😭 one week is a lifetime 😂
Thanks for the video, really appreciate your BTS videos, and I hope you'll continue this journey. Army would love to be part of it 💜🇩🇿
Congrats on 50K subs, well-deserved!! 🎉🥳 can’t wait to see the channel continue to grow even more!
6:06
Couse he wasn't trying to sing that part!it was a backing track only!He was just saying the "me me me" part with himself! He never sing that pert !you can tell by the difference between how their actual voice sounds like comparing to how low backing tracks are like. so its not a lip sync part you didn't need to explain that his voice wasn't different with the mic away for like 3 mins you're making it too complicated for yourself . He often moves his mouth in different part of the song couse he is vibing with it
Lip syncing is not bad, chill. Plus he was just explaining it and was not shaming him for using a backtrack.
@@kimberlynrios4755
I'm not trying to mob him or anything i think he had a good reaction. he was talking about how jk's voice didn't change when the mic was away and made a point about it which was just a misunderstandings couse that was just a backing track and he was only moving his mouse so i wanted to make it clear ,that's what he always do while vibing with a song and it's not a big deal . Of course there is no problem with back tracks but In my opinion lip sync isn't ok . I know he wasn't trying to question his singing i wanted to clarify the misunderstanding
@@kimberlynrios4755 lol, how can 3 seconds where JK just vibed to the song can be ever called lipsync? I hate these things, let's enjoy the song instead of arguing
Taehyung's baritone range is amazing Eb2 - D6
6:00 nothing really happened here lmao he probably thought about singing along to the “save me, me, me” part, but didn’t. which is why he brought the mic up and put it back down.
Definitely recommend their 2021 festa to see more of their vocal diversify
Yeas they have different positions main lead and sub vocals, dancers and rapers. This is something that influences in they responsibilities. For exemplo JK (the guy in orange suit) is the main vocal, because his voice is the more stable so he used to have more lines and he is responsable for recording the vocal guide to help the others, Jimin the guy on the right is lead vocal, so he is normally responsable for sing the parts they want want to highlight. It doesn't means that in some songs they don't do different, but it is how normally goes.
Next is Magic shop live !
Thank you for your reaction. I really enjoyed your breakdown and analysis. I'd love to see you react to and analyze the rest of their MTV Unplugged videos ("Fix You" is one of them. There are five in total). On of them, "Blue and Grey", is a beautiful ballad.
They do have some background sound for fullness. Their songs sometimes are meant to have fans sing back to them. So the backing may be added
It's lovely to hear your opinions as someone who knows about music and vocals. Thank you for giving them a listen!😄
Thank you soo much for analyzing BTS.
They actually do have "lead singers" - although song by song it's not about who sings the most. Jungkook (purple mic) is the main vocalist, in the center of most ensemble pieces. His voice is generally regarded as the most stable & a lot of songs come back to him again and again for repeated chorus or prechorus sections. He's also incredibly adaptable (there are a zillion videos of him doing lots of stuff with his voice) and blends really well when he's on harmonies.
The other three vocalists all have different colors/tonal qualities and they arrange songs to make use of those qualities while still passing the melody around. And a couple of the rappers sing sometimes as well - especially JHope, which we see here on Spring Day especially.
As main vocal, Jungkook actually lays down the vast majority of the harmonies and ad libs on their backing tracks, so whether or not he was singing in that little moment on Save Me, it's probably him on the backing track. The guys are notoriously terrible at lip sync, which is funny because they're good at everything else.
Yes, right
It’s definitely a backing track. He wasn’t trying to lip synch tho.
Thank you for appreciating the boys. Even if you don’t know them but I’m glad you appreciate each one’s unique voices. Thank you also for appreciating Jin’s (pink mic) vocals, his high and lower register. I love your reaction as a professional singer /musician
Jungkook the guy with the purple microphone is actually the MAIN VOCALIST so his "position" is higher than the other vocalists. Jimin the guy with the orange microphone is the LEAD VOCALIST his "position" is below the main. Taehyung / V the guy with the green microphone and Jin the guy with the pink microphone are the VOCALIST so their "position" is below the main and the lead.
Same with the Rappers
RM the guy with the blue microphone he is the MAIN RAPPER. Suga the guy with the black microphone is the LEAD RAPPER and J-hope the guy with the red microphone is a RAPPER but he is also a SUB VOCALIST
Pls correct me if I am wrong in any of the information i stated. 😅
Btw the also dance they have a dance line (like vocal line and rap line)
The dance line includes Jhope, V, Jungkook, and Jimin
there are no rankings tbh. yes, they have official "positions" but after 9 years of being together, they decide the roles based on who fits them the most. jungkook still does cover majority of the vocals and ad libs so he'd still be fit to be called the main vocalist. i don't agree w the rappers' positions all too much w their recent works as context
@@taesfilter3026 Yes I know they don't really have ranks I just couldn't find the right word 😅
Can you suggest any
@@taesfilter3026 I get what your saying but the position ls still do matter to a certain extent like jk will always be the main vocalist and does majority of the runs and adlibs.
@@Cait-hw3rx that's exactly why i said it'd only apply to jk, but not so much the rappers?

Wow I really enjoyed your reaction/review and analysis!!! These guys are so talented I love them so much and spring day always tears me up a little bit what a great song!
you should react to the house of cards and the truth untold live. its just the vocal line but both songs are amazing live. also dimple & pied piper live also amazing
Jungkook the orange jacket really good conveying emotion through his voices that’s how I like about his style, he never disappoint me with this. He has an art through his voice he know exactly how delivered the right feelings and leave listeners captivated more to the song .
i enjoyed this so much! i loved the technical breakdown
Thanks for the breakdown of the songs. I’m learning everyday.
The guy in the orange suit, Jungkook is the main singer which we would normally call the lead singer.
jungkook is the main singer and jimin is the lead singer :)
Jungkook - main
Jimin - lead
@@kooquette2 i think he meant in western term...not k-pop. We know in k-pop term main vocalist and lead vocalist is not the same. In western...main vocalist= lead vocalist. When I first got to know K-pop I was confused and also thought main/lead vocalist is the same.
@@heystobeatingmymochi78 I read it just like you did!
I enjoy your analysis. In the final song, Spring Day, the backing track ‘woooaahs’ would normally be sung by ARMY in a live performance!
I hadnt heard the guitar in the BG of Save me despite having watched that video several times. that's what I love about seeing these reactions. I keep learning about these little parts that I didnt notice before
6:50 hahaha he’s just having fun moving his mouth
Peter! I really appreciate how you pay attention to all the artists in the room even if the focus is vocals. Their band is called Ghost, and the drummer goes by Khan. ☺️ He's on TH-cam!
love your analysis!
Stay Gold is a wonderful song of theirs.
U would like their BTS room live 2021 festa
Really appreciate the nuanced info in technical details of their singing!
Thanks!
Please delete? One of the kids did this, hoping I wouldn’t notice.
Btw we would care about what you have to say about them talking. Most Armys arent fans just for music but for them as people. You will find out why in time. Music is just some part of being in fandom.
Especially here, where they are talking about the music. I'm very sad he skipped those parts. He really missed out, and would have gained a bit more insight.
