TOP was traumatizing in Bae Bae, this video was on point
I still love him though, if only for shit like this:
(also this seems like a good post for this question; could you guys rec me some BB songs that you'd show to someone who you wanted to impress? A friend of mine likes them but is pretty unfamiliar with their music, and I'm trying to convince her to come to their concert with me so I don't have to go alone, lmao
I'd do it myself but I'm really only familiar with their MADE stuff (+ Fantastic Baby) and Bang Bang Bang is an....acquired taste, um)
To add to what has already been recommended, Last Farewell is a lot of fun and their Japanese song Beautiful Hangover is also good. I went to their last concert in the US and they did some solo stuff as well so GD&TOP's High High, TOP's Doom Dada, and Seungri's Gotta Talk to You might also be good to show her. They're so good in concert, I'm sure you and your friend will have a lot of fun after you convince her to go!
For something older, How Gee and A Fools Only Tears are two jams for me that have lasted the test of time. You probably won't find it on a concert list any time soon, but if you're just looking for some of their good sounds to impress (or maybe unimpress idk) a friend, those are two I like. Also With U, because it gives me serious b2k vibes.
beware cheesy english lyrics like phony bologne and wearing sunglasses at night.
A fool's only tear, Good man (pure gold), Cafe, Alive (entire album), Love song, Tonight, Sunset Glow, Haru Haru, Lies, Last farewell, My heaven. Japanese releases: Tell me goodbye, Stay, Always are gold
Blue, Bad Boy, Tonight, Wonderful (kind of dated sounding but I love it,) Foolish Love, Haru Haru, Lies, Last Farewell (the acoustic versions of those last 3 especially.)
For Japanese songs: Top of the World, Koe wo Kikasete, Tell me Goodbye, Number One, Garagara Go (also sort of cheesy but it's fun.)
Those are probably the ones I would start with. Do you want their solo stuff too? :p
As someone new to them and actively trying to convert my friends to them? I'd recommend these coz they work if you're in the club/general dance focused pop: Bae Bae, Bad Boy, Blue, Bang Bang Bang (come on, it's a bop!), Love Song, Sober and Number 1 (which is mediocre but Taeyang's falsetto is worth the listen).
From their solo stuff? TOP; Doom Dada, KnockOut & Baby Goodnight GD: Shake The World Seungri: Gotta Talk To You Daesung: nothing. Lol, I love him but I don't really like what little I've heard of his solo stuff.
he's doing good even though he ruined his "chic" image right ahead :p i dont think there are any subs... tho with basic korean you can get a grasp of what is going on
this is one of the many reasons I enjoy watching the videos that CUBE uploads for BTOB. they are crazy at the backstage! channeling his inner TOP and GD hahaha I remember in BTOB's Sik's Sense, he sang part of 2NE1's I am the best sounding like TOP lol

Most of their Japanese songs are great but I recommend Tell Me Goodbye, Koe o Kikasete, Gara Gara Go! and Top of the World.
And all their older Korean stuff is amazing.
