mono is not just a mixtape, it's a feeling in itself. it's like a warm hug when you're feeling down - and i used to be one of those people who didn't quite understand what others meant when they said they listened to mono when they felt upset, but now i do. everythingoes in particular means a lot to me. joon accomplished something with this mixtape that any artist would be proud of, and even though he has said more recently that he doesn't relate to mono anymore, it encapsulates the emotion perfectly and it will forever remain important to a whole lot of people, including myself.
Where does he say this that he doesn’t relate. Of course he’s better now than when he wrote mono and was when he put out the album. RM tries to put out work that helps people and this whole album is one of the best things he put out. I see people liking but not questioning this source. I remember on Suchwita recently he talks about the colors he used which was black and white, monochromatic colors. He said that soon after he started wearing more colors and he wishes there were more colors. Indigo is making up for that with its 10 shades, ten songs. To me though considering the songs themselves, black and white fits perfectly. The fact that he wanted some colors in there shows his change of mind. He created such a work of art. Pls let me know where you got that statement from so that I can search it up as well. Maybe you misinterpreted what he said?
@@user-wg1lj9jk5gno, he did say that he doesn't identify mono all that much anymore bc he's grown and changed and he feels like a completely different person to the one who wrote it
Namjoon has gotta be up there with one of the most talented writers of this musical generation of artists, his lyrics translated are beautiful in themselves but they’re even more beautiful and poetic in Korean, where the meaning is fully present. He’s like one of VERY few people who can beautifully write poetry type lyrics in 3 languages, Korean, English, and Japanese.
I love and envy his genius 💜
"I feel represented". Yes! Namjoon has this ability to make you feel seen and understood that few people possess. Mono is such a precious gem, each song feels like warm a hug, it's been my comfort album for years. It heals my soul. ❤
No official lyric was released for this project so the lyrics are transcribed
In Tokyo ive seen a variety of translations like-1.a. It could be torso
b. It could be torn soul
c. It could be tourist so
2.a Life is a word sometimes you cannot say
b. life is a wave sometimes you cannot see
Its so meaningful and deep in every way it's crazy and i also think joonie purposely pronounced this way
This explanation was very useful; thanks a lot! 👍🏻
@@s.susanmarandi9080 and someone came with a hint that the first stage tour name was "Wake up" and it began in Tokio!
The lyric ash is a thing that someday we all should be. I take it as we all gonna die someday. RM is not from Seoul. He came to Seoul for music, but he is from Ilsan, so he has a love-hate relationship with Seoul. This album is somewhat melancholy but beautiful. Moonchild is my favorite off this album.
I also read the ash line as a representative of our own mortality
I agree the ash is a representation of your own mortality. If someone was cremated they become “ash”. Ash in Seoul can also be representative of some of the color of buildings\streets.
@@SLiPinBoise ... Yep & ash is also what we used to be before we were born. It's basically carbon mostly. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust. Most of the molecules in our bodies used to be part of a live organism before, like a previous person, plant, animal, microorganism, who are now all dead, generation to generation of organisms, going as far back long before the dinosaurs, to the primordial sea. It's Recycling ... because we live on a planet that doesn't get much stuff from outerspace except a tiny amount of metorites for 4+ billions years. "That someday we all should be", probably means he's stating the obvious that Earthen mortal death is part of the mortal life cycle, whether designed by nature or god or both. Immortality is not quite at our fingertips yet, way out of our league right now.
omg fuck this is so unexpected, but this is one of Namjoon best works!!😭😭😭 I'LL SURELY ENJOY WATCHING YOU REACTING TO MONO
Seeing reactions like yours remind me of how spoiled ARMY is, that we are given these kinds of gifts from BTS. They are just so generous with their artistry and releasing gems like these FOR FREE? I know we don't care about the awards shows anymore, but this is one project that deserves every recognition, for just how genius and amazing it is, regardless of the language barrier. Another reason why I will forever be a fan.
Mono is like that old friend to whom you return very often, in a variety of moods and for varied reasons; doesn't matter how long it's been but you pick up the threads immediately. We've weathered some dark times together and I will never be able to fully articulate how much it means. This goes for much of Suga's solo work too, but we're here to celebrate our "Prince of Ilsan".
Just a small correction, RM is from Ilsan not Seoul! Though Ilsan is very close to Seoul.
Isn't Ilsan kinda like a suburb of Seoul?
@@AngelaSealana I believe Ilsan is it’s own city neighbouring Seoul~ Not 100%!
@@AngelaSealana arent they different provinces?
@@constanzasaucedo7045They’re both same provinces. Seoul is in Gyeonggi-do, which translates into “capital and surrounding area”. Ilsan is a satellite city to Seoul
I read somewhere that RM was born in Seoul but moved to IIsan and grew up there.
mono definitely got me through some tough times. namjoon's lyrics are like a warm hug, letting us know we are not alone in this world and that it WILL get better.
RM does everything for a reason. The musicality, the lyrics the order of the tracks. How did this not win awards even in the US?
Indigo deserves a Grammy nom at LEAST.💜
It feels like this album always finds people when they need it the most. Namjoon is a warm hug and this album is a gift. It got me through my darkest days and still helps when I'm low. I'm so glad you find comfort in it too.
Mono was my therapy!! still is. i could not thank Namjoon enough for this mixtape. RM is a genius. 💜
I was thinking recently about the differences between mono and Indigo. For me, mono has always felt like when you’re in a dark room, someone coming in and sitting with you quietly so that you know you’re not alone. Not trying to change you, make you smile, fix your problems, etc. Just sitting in comforting harmony, waiting for you to decide yourself when it’s time to feel better and leave that room.
Indigo picks up where mono leaves off, when you leave that room. It recognizes how effed up the world is and how sad, lonely, and confusing life can be, but then it takes you by the hand, reminds you how big the world is, and encourages you to LIVE.
I 💯 believe RM will be remembered as one of, if not THE most significant songwriters of his generation. As you said, his ability to capture/reflect such a depth of emotion is just awe-inspiring. 💜
This is so perfectly expressed, thank you.
To me, RM's albums most closely reflects that unique thread of healing that I feel in BTS's projects. It makes it clear that hes the main songwriter of the group because you hear the DNA of his writing and perspective in his stuff and BTS's stuff so clearly. It's wonderful how the music feels like a pat on the head and a kind word when your heart needs it most. It's impossible for me to pic a fave BTS album or solo project. When I'm in need of gentle comfort though, I turn to RM's music most often. When im in need of sunshiney confort I turn to Hope World and when I want to listen to something a bit dark and angsty for comfort I go to Yoongi's stuff and Jack In The Box. The Astronaut still makes me cry but its great for missing Jin hours. All of them have a time and place for me. I could go on and on.
This playlist literally pulled me out of so much darkness at that time. Joon is literally comfort in a human. He makes u think and question stuff about yourself about society about the world....
What a privilege to know someone like him
No one can understand how impactful and healing this was for RM and his fans. I'd love for the appreciation over this album to extend outside of the fandom because RM's music is what everyone needs.
I have "everythingoes" tattooed on my arm... The song is truly healing, for many Army. Hugs!!!!💜
Mono is one of my fav creations in this planet, the lyrics, the beats, the meaning of everything is so special
honestly... moonchild, everythingoes and forever rain mean the world to me. These songs have been with me through hell and back, they'll always have a special place in my heart
31:00 Hang in there Michael. To me Mono is such a special piece of work, one that I hope to carry with me my whole life. It’s an album that always comforts me when I’m feeling low. Namjoon really poured out his heart. It’s truly amazing to see how many people these songs resonate with. I’ll never forget watching a Mono reaction by a Korean college student on YT back in 2019. He cried so much. His videos are gone now, but I still wonder what he must have been going through and how he is doing now. I hope Namjoon knows how many hearts his music has touched and I also hope these songs give you some comfort through what you are going through.
moonchild is such a special song to me, i got it tattooed.
especially the line “we gotta dance in the rain, dance in the pain, even tho we crash down we gon dance in the plane” it is the single most life-changing lyric for me. it gives me the strength to still have a positive outlook even when i feel like my life is literally crashing down around me. he is so so powerful with his words and you can see how deeply he experiences life 💗
im gonna get my "everythingoes" tattoo next month! It's my first tattoo and im super excited to get it! 🤭
MONO is a piece of pure art. It's a masterpiece and only the most deserving people find it.
This album was the cure to my insomnia back in 2019. Everyday, I fell asleep thinking about this album.
RM is a gem in the music industry.
everythingoes is one of my comfort songs. i got a tattoo of it last year after going through a tough time in the hospital with a major health issue. so glad the song brought you some comfort, to help you through the pain. thanks for always listening to BTS member's words and their stories. I appreciate your reaction, michael!
I am ...have been...an RM fan from day 1(his songwritting for bts and then his first mixtape)....and yet i was not prepared for how beautiful Indigo is....Namjoon's evolution is just so musically appealing to the discerning litsener...a listner who is following an artist who isnt chart chasing but instead is true to his form..
Mono is an incredible album,, got me through some tough times.
Would love to see you listen to the ‘RM’ mixtape
Thank you for being brave and comfortable enough to not only share your thoughts but your feelings too with us. I hope for better days to come. As always, I really enjoyed your breakdowns, your thoughts on BTS and the members music. This album is everything to me, and with every listen I discover new meanings. I can honestly say I can't get enough of Namjoon's mind. I'm so excited for his next album, which is supposed to be a completely different vibe.
this mixtape means everything to me. listening to this in 2018 was so special, and even now years later, i still reach for it when i need a reminder that everything will be okay.
Mono is such a special place in my heart. It’s gone so full circle in my life it’s so crazy. (Sob story incoming)
When Mono came out fall 2018, my best friend and I were in college living together. She was probably at her lowest mentally in life, and I wasn’t. I didn’t get her comfort and sadness associated with mono and what was going on in her life. Then a few months later my father passed unexpectedly. I’d never dealt with a close and personal death. I felt so alone. And my best friend then became the one to be there for me. Almost like this balancing act. She was my soulmate to say the least. Then 2019 came and I found so much happiness and that was my best year. Then covid (we all know). But then in 2021 my best friend was diagnosed with stage four stomach and liver cancer with no prognosis to live more than a few years. We stopped listening to mono together, and eventually we stopped listening to a lot of Kpop together. BTS was her outlet, and I saw her slowly fading from it. Her passion disappearing. She passed this last June 23rd. I feel so lonely. I feel so empty. I feel like I have no one even when I have everyone. Everyone but her. About a week and a half after her passing I listened to mono and it was the first time I had cried since she passed. I didn’t cry at all until that moment. now I get it. I get what she meant back in 2018 when this album was released. It brings you out of your lowest with the warmest and most supporting hug anyone/anything could give you.
If any of you guys want to learn about my best friends story, her ig page is @churreh
She was such a beautiful human, and could bring any light forward🤍
I absolutely love this album. to this day, it's my favorite thing any of the members have done
I'm only 13 minutes in and im already choking back tears lol
This whole album is simply incredible.... But Everything Goes is branded in my soul
This mixtape feels like a warm hug that you need when you can't take it anymore. Thank you Kim Namjoon for making Mono and Indigo. 🥺
Mono always comes at the right time. It did for me, for my friends and a lot of other people. I think it was the right time for you too, it is indeed a comforting mixtape! Thanks for reacting, and remember: it all passes, everythingoes! You're strong enough to get past of your hardships 💜
My no.1 favorite solo album of bts that ill always go back
Omg! Same🥺
Mono reached out to me and showed me that RM gets how depression and suicidal ideation can burrow into your soul and how exhausting it can be to live with them. How people can look at your success and ask “how can you possibly be like lonely and sad?!!” He GETS IT and is unafraid to communicate it in this album. My hero, really.
As soon as this project was released, Mono. became my comfort album and still is to this day. There's just something about him accepting the pain and trying to embrace it until it passes rather than most people who just try to tell you to stay positive and ignore or hide the pain you're going thru. Moonchild is my absolute favorite song off this album but every single song from this project is amazing. Anytime I need to calm my anxiety or am about to have a panic attack, I'll turn on everythingoes and it helps me calm down so much faster than anything else.
MONO es terapia, de hecho, personalmente me resultó más efectivo que ir a un psicólogo jajaja, RM es demasiado honesto con su música, él realmente sabe comprender de forma completa, se siente como si sus canciones consolaran al oyente de una forma magnífica y muy real. Por lo general, no suelto encontrar a alguien con quien entenderme y conectar, solo no me siento comprendido, pero al ver las letras de las canciones de Namjoon...siento que él me coprende, su música es muy sanadora y me ha ayudado mucho a mi salud mental, es por eso y más que RM es un artistas fenomenal, me atrevo a decir que el mejor de la década, junto a los otros 6 miembros son imparables, eso es lo que amo de BTS y sobre todo, es lo que más aprecio en RM, que es sincero con lo que hace y realmente sabe conectar con sus fans porque sus vivencias y experiencias son rales, la nobleza en cada letra de este álbum es definitivamente un abrazo para el alma. ♥
mono is my life!!! the lyrics are so deep, i REALLY admire namjoon!!! mono is my fav rm solo work!!!
Hey Jihyo from Twice (the you liked a lot) will release her 1st solo mini album on august 18th!
Yes mono! Healing through pain
Everythingoes has been a companion through some important times in my life! Can't wait to revisit that playlist with you let me jump in to that reaction
Edit post-reaction: well i agree.. mono is just a very special and unique standout project... it resonates with so many and comforted so many...b
I think by ash he means like dust.. we all shall return to the earth abd become ash... death.. it also refers to the ash from the city (especially in Seoul where pollution levels can get really high and dust visible).... mono is literally monochromatic black (and white) and grey is a color the he uses to also often express sadness (cf. RM's verse in the BTS song blue and grey) and leading the way to the color that then entered his life (indigo)
I remember listening to Mono for the first time when it came out and I had the same experience as you.
This mixtape feels like a friend sitting down next to me while I allow myself to feel whatever it is I need.
Love your reaction! Thank you.
Thank you for finally getting to Mono! It is “healing” masterpiece for me!💜
Didn't expect this but im so excited that you reacted to this album. It was a masterpiece when it came out back then and it still holds up
This is the best mono review I’ve ever seen u really understood the assignment
This playlist/mixtape is something I hold dear to my heart...it saved me. I cant thank Namjoon enough for baring his soul to us so that we could find comfort in the harsh circumstances of our lives. We connect through music, reflection, introspection and relating to each other although we are different. It doesnt take much to change your perception of life if you think about it but it also feels humanly impossible to do so at the same time. For me it was "it all passes...everything goes", this became a mantra for me and I still need it till this day.
This is an artist, poet and amazing human being who told me all I had to do was breathe and I would be alright. RM and all of BTS for that matter are magic that this world needs more of ...
I'm glad it took you so long to listen. bts always finds a way to you when you need it most, and it seems like you needed to listen to everything goes lol
What’s really interesting to me is that while this ep is such a comfort project to many army’s, namjoon expressed it a couple of times that he has a few regrets about this album
This video couldn’t be posted a better time bc I needed the comfort it brought me!
This is my favorite album of all time😭😭😭 thank you for reaction
This is a great project to listen to when you’re driving home alone at night and you’re kinda sad (specific, but I’ve done it)
It is it fvcking is joonie has no idea how much this album means to a lot of us
Excited for the reaction 😊
Sending you hugs, seems like you really needed it at everything goes. I purple you💜💜💜
No hay dudas de que Nam es un genio, y solo tiene 29 años, su música es arte..👏💪💙💜
One of my favorite albums ever. Is one of my comfort albums. I love it!
Mono is a masterpiece, it touches our soul sooo deep... The first RM's song I fell in love was Bicycle, and after it I found Mono... RM's lyricism is out of this world.
To me, Jimin's Face followed the same path and it's another masterpiece!
In fact, all of them are excellent storytellers, and when they decide to talk about mental health, they are perfect!
Rm said we'll all turn into ash some day. As we'll die
yey, you reacted to mono! it's definitely one of my favorite projects by namjoon. if a hug had sound, it would definitely be this mixtape.
a little fun fact: joon's actually from a place called ilsan, which is a good 1-2 hours away from seoul! he's made many references to that, specially in "ma city", where he mentions he loves his hometown more than anything. that's the reason of his inner conflict in "seoul", i think. because he cant help but love the place that made him who he is today despite feeling like a stranger there.
great reaction as always, michael! thank you for taking time to read and disect each song, and for respecting his hard work! hope you have a great weekend ♡
The Masterpiece= Mono
I still remember that when I listened to everythinggoes for the first time I was bawling my eyes out although I didn't have the lyrics at the time. It just felt so liberating and calming to me, like pent up emotion that can finally be let out. When I read the lyrics I cried for hours. It's still one of my favourite songs of all time. It's immensely healing for me. And came into my life at exactly the right time, like for many of us moonchildren. I'd love to get a tattoo of the Hangul for "Jinaga" (Everything goes) one day.
Love this album. Thanks for doing these full album listening sessions!
*everythingoes* never fails at getting to me. You're right abt it feeling like a hug.
Wait, no uhgood reaction? My fav from mono is uhgood. Just like everyone says, mono helped people through their low/darkest time. Feel like my story already has been written by others in comments 😄 always thankful for namjoon w his mono :")
I knew you’d love Mono! Thanks for reacting to it. Mono is one of my favorite BTS solo projects. RM’s words and music are comforting and healing 💜
There have been days... Weeks... Where I had to play Everythingoes on constant loop. It is a mantra to me. It lives together with BTS's Tomorrow in my brain. There's a cadence, something hypnotic, that these two share.
Lyrically, too, I see many similarities.
Thank you for this reaction!
Mono brings me so much comfort and healing.
When I had frequent anxiety attacks and was dealing with depression, this album and especially the track “everything goes” was the only thing that helped me overcome those dark feelings. I listen to this album whenever I'm going through tough times.
Ps: I hope you feel better soon..like Namjoon said everything shall pass surely 🤍
Ahh the line in Tokyo is We all should become ashes and for me it is more about fleetingness, and at the end we all die....
this reaction made me cry so hard thank you for filming and sharing your thoughts and experiences. everythingoes makes me too emotional i literally can not physically listen to the song lol
i cannot put into words what mono means to me, i wish i could
Regarding "ash":
I believe the mention on Tokyo meant death, a "we all shall die one day" (with "shall" being an interesting choice, in contrast with "will" - I think he's saying that type of pain is also a part of life and should be embraced as well). And it's a different usage, a literal one.
The other mentions of "ash" as an adjective, seem to refer to "grey-ness" on things (all building being painted grey, the pavimented road being gray, etc) or on humans (faces that are tired, resigned, sad). It seems like it's always linked to a "sameness" too, everyone I see is grey or everything I see is grey.
Thank you for another video
Namjoon is truly a poet and I am so glad that he got into music and rap, because he has a talent and his words / music can heal people, and that is not an easy task, I am so proud of him, mono was my anchor during the pandemic, and I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for this mixtape .. So so so thankful and I'm happy that you got to hear this in this period of sadness, I hope it will help you !
I really liked your perspective on these songs and the lyrics. Mono is a such a special album for so many people. And I love hearing new thoughts on something I love so much
so happy you found mono.
When mono came out, I listened to it days on end over and over. I cried every time. It was so painful to me to think that RM had to suffer and was suffering so much. Finally after maybe a year or so, it didn't make me cry anymore. I could find it comforting. Flash forward a bit more and I began to even appreciate a sort of melancholic sexiness to it. Tokyp has always been my favorite track. Until a few years ago, the lyric was translated to torso. Then, someone translated it differently making torn soul. They both make sense to me but I think it is torn soul and not torso even though that is what we all thought for years and years. Also, FYI, RM once said that mono was a playlist that he made to comfort himself when he was down. It contains the things he wants to hear when he is feeling sad/blue/depressed/stressed/etc. So he created a self-soothing project that ended up comforting millions around the world. Like another post I saw, he said he doesn't really identify with the Namjoon that created mono anymore. He has changed and grown. He is someone else now. Oh and he also said recently that he thinks of his mixtapes as experiments and that Indio is his first real attempt as a solo artist.
hey, quick question, do you remember where he said he doesn't identify with mono?? I think it was an interview or something like that but I can't remember which one
@@nessdlomjor I think it was his Suchita episode. I could be wrong but that is what I am thinking.
@@jeanettasheehy3018 I'm in between that and his interview with Zach Sang. I'll go rewatch I guess 😂 thanks!
There is this song called Bicycle
You should listen to it💜
this is my comfort album. i don't really think about this album when I'm actively listening to music, but when I work or read I so often put it in the background because it has such a comforting energy, all tracks flow together so well so i just have it on on the loop and it is perfect. as much as i love rm's aggressive rap i think he is at his best when making those softer tracks, that sound like wistful poetry with a melody. he is a musical and lyrical genius.
Mono was great when it released but it really aged with time. Now everytime I listen I just feel this comfort that I wish I could’ve gave my younger self. Everything goes is now my life motto
THIS VIDEO IS A GIFT OH MY !!!!! i adore this album, and HEY , i cry every time i listen to everythinggoes bc it kinda got me through a realllllyyyy roughhhh depression . so, very very understandable. its one of my fav things rm has ever created hes just so. wow
Thank you for such a vulnerable reaction. I too love Mono so much.
My interpretation of moonchild is that moonchildren are those sensitive souls - the ones who feel deeply and are sometimes criticised for being too soft and to easily pained by things. It's a song of comfort for me that my pain is valid and I too have a place - perhaps not a place under the sun but the moon welcomes me.
I’m really struggling after 3 failed surgeries to repair my foot. I NEED mono…it keeps me trudging on even though shit is hard rn.
Btw, Yoongi does the same repetition of comfort words in Snooze. He repeats the phrase 다 괜찮아질 거야 which means everything will be ok. I tell myself this many, many times a day. I’m just glad BTS, and especially Yoongi and Namjoon are keeping it real for us and letting us know that we are all out here just being. And sometimes being isn’t easy, it sucks, but it will pass.
And I am so happy you listened to this. I always thought it would fit you perfectly 🥰
OMG, YES. I WAS WAITING FOR THIS! Mono is my comfort album.
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE!! THANK YOUUU
I cannot explain the full context of how RM used "ashy" in this whole mixtape but I'm pretty sure that in Tokyo the expression we all go back to ashes means that we all die, we become dust. 4:55 = We are all from dust and to dust we will return. I think in Seoul, he used "ashy" as a way to describe the city. My favorite line from Seoul is at 13:15. It's so brilliantly written.
Just answering to the title: Yes, it is. It's so special and incredibly comforting!
Warm purple hug to you. 💜 You've always been so mindful and respectful of your reactions to the boys. I hope you're feeling much better. 😊
read the title....and the answer is yes.
OMG IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS ONE 🫡
and thank you for using lyric videos that have the correct translations!
Try listening through mono and loop it from forever rain back to Tokyo. RM is just freaking brilliant.
mono is one of my favorite pieces of work ever published. It was funny to me, ironic, when mono was released and I heard moonchild, I've been writing poetry since I was 8, I'm 27 now, and I was 22 when mono came out. For the longest time I've been writing poetry about the moon and I'd call my self "moon child" in many of them, because I've been dealing with depression for over a decade now, and many times I felt I could only breathe at night, when everything was quiet and I felt I could finally let go of my mask and be myself, let my sadness flow. I wrote, drew, painted, read, all at night with the moon my only companion. Right now even, its 4.42am, Im working thr night shift just bcs I love the tranquility of night, when I feel its only me and no one else can bother me. So when I heard moonchild I finally felt seen, I saw Namjoon and I thought "wow, you understand me".
I will carry that song with me until I die.
Mono, my love. 🥺💚💜
Mono found you. This is poetry. So it leaves you free space for your own feelings and interpretations. Mono is like cup of warm coffee when you need it the most. Thank you for your honest reaction, you showed vulnerability and it was beautiful. Cheers ❤
MONO IS SO GOOD
BTS comes to you when you needed them is soooo true. Hope mono gave comfort n warth n healing that you needed. I wish you peace n love to the fullest. I had comfort watching your reaction myself. Thank you
Any time I search up new BTS-related reactions and see "Beveraggi" I get excited 💜🤘 Thank you!
Michael thanks for the video!
I hope you're doing well, thanks for sharing your feelings and that you are having a hard time.
Things will get better, sending hugs and positive energy 🌱🌱
Ashes in tokyo can be interpreted in many ways. The first thing that came to my mind was the process of cremation, it could also be the colour ash and how this colour relates to the feeling of dull, loneliness emptiness
oh I never thought of the color...thank you for this new insight
Mono and BE are my comfort albums. They feel like warm hugs to me
Oh I was waiting for mono thanks Michael! 💜
OMG MONO 😭😭 been waiting FOREVER
When mono came out, I felt all the lyrics so deeply, like it was exactly what I needed at the time, because I felt the same way. It's such an experience, that somehow feels bigger than just a normal album? I'm not sure if that makes sense, but it feels like its own little world while listening. Mono will always have a special place in my heart💜
Edit: I always thought the ash thing, was about the fact that inevitably we're all gonna die. We will all return to ash at some point, that's the natural cycle of life. I think it's just something that comes up when reflecting on life in general.
this mixtape is a masterpiece. and i totally get the feeling when hearing everythingoes, i cry everytime i listen to it cause its just like a comforting hug :(
