Vocal line needs to stop slaying me with their vocals in House of Cards.

[kaninasan.livejournal.com]

lol tbh I'm not crazy about the extended versions of House of Cards and Love is not Over, I'm probably too used to the normal versions tbh....

I have however had the two I Need U mixes on repeat since yesterday

[abcd123.livejournal.com]

My save me listen counter is up to double digits and only growing more by the minute

Also I needed that mv like yesterday and can kind of forgive no baebsae mv if they give it soon

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

I'm kinda disappointed, to be honest. Of course, I appreciate prologue ver. of Butterfly, but the shorter versions of both songs just seem more fitting.
And I'm not that fond of both Fire and Save Me. The latter sounds like something Justin Bieber would release...
Overall, I only liked Butterfly prologue ver. and alternative mixes.

Loving the extended versions!! It likely helps that I haven't heard them in a minute tho XD

I'm proud of them TBQH

I really love House of Cards and the urban remix of I Need U. I've always preferred Run to INU but that remix is 😍😍😍

[demonology81.livejournal.com]

Butterfly prologue mix was what I wanted since last year.

Surprisingly I have 'Fire' on repeat. Hmmm... And I was so sure I'm not gonna like it when teaser was out. Hmmm...

I freak out each time I listen to both HOC and LINO full length because I love them.

I appreciate for the remixes. I appreciate whatever these boys release. I can't thank them enough.

[maebyfunke.livejournal.com]

I'm not a fan of remixes but I'm loving all of them on Young Forever 😭

[annayism.livejournal.com]

i'm literally incapable of doing other things while listening to the full house of cards
save me def reminds me of justin beiber but tbh that's probably a recipe for success here

[gray-fairy.livejournal.com]

Butterfly still gives me chills. That song is so damn beautiful. I'm glad they included the original prologue version.
I already was addicted to HOC short version but this one just slayed me enterely. BTS' vocal line is no joke tbh.
The HYYH series in general are such a masterpiece and this repack is the cherry on the top.

[aki-san.livejournal.com]

I'm so proud of the vocal line, they've come so far. ❤

[scionofawhisper.livejournal.com]

Everything sounds beautiful except Rapmon's crooning in Run the ballad version, I couldn't make it like 2 seconds before shutting it off.. xD

[pinklunacy.livejournal.com]

I impulsively ordered both versions of the album yesterday after hearing Save me. What is my life.

This is a masterpiece and I ain't telling no lie here. Save me is already turning into my fav BTS song. The remixes are really cool and the outros (long ver.) are beautiful (I actually like this version of Love is Not Over more than the original).

[pippopippo.livejournal.com]

Save Me is one of the best BTS songs ever. So good.

[sethelaezekiel.livejournal.com]

bighit is shameless really dragging this out huh? whats the point if they're only going to promote for a week?

i'd rather we move on to their new era

but save me saved me kings of kpop!

[audreyfrill.livejournal.com]

i can't get over this album omg

love love love the new songs, butterfly prologue ver. and the i need u remixes. i really like the full versions too, but they still sound a bit strange cause i listened to the short versions too much lol (((taehyung's vocals in house of cards damn)))
run ballad is also pretty, the alternate mixes don't do much for me tho

also i wonder why they didn't include nevermind and 흥탄소년단 on this album? i'm a bit sad about that lol

[annieshoe.livejournal.com]

i'm loving save me and i need u urban remix :)))

[imangos.livejournal.com]

"Save Me" is out to save KPOP tbh. That song is everything. I'm gonna need that MV and some insanely profound lyrical/contemporary choreo stat.

[overflowers.livejournal.com]

I've been waiting on studio versions for a lot of these remixes (especially I Need U Urban Mix, I loved this performance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ib0fKvcZRZM) sfm) so I'm satisfied with this repackage. And Prologue Butterfly and the outros are so gorgeous, vocal line🙏

[kyokomurasaki.livejournal.com]

Welp, they've done it again. I feel like BTS is one of the few groups who just keeps getting better with each new release; it's amazing how much they've grown musically since debut! They're so hardworking and talented and I'm so proud of them. I never buy physical releases but I may just have to get this one because I love it so much.

[blancface.livejournal.com]

Yes to all of this!

I'm so amazed at how they have actually grown with each new album. I understand kpop restrict artists in terms of creativity so it's difficult for groups to actually grow. But I'm glad BTS seems to have a team they've worked with since debut and have gotten the opportunity to contribute musically.

I'm really happy for the boys and I'm glad they're finally getting the recognition they deserve! This album's sound production is everything!!!

[caipirinhas.livejournal.com]

I want my copy to get here so I can see the credits on all the songs. Based on what I can see from tumblr, both Rap Mon and Suga were involved in the production of Fire, and both Jungkook and Jimin helped write some of the melodies. I love seeing Jimin get involved in the songwriting now, too.

[queenhinata.livejournal.com]

i liked HoC before but i loveee the full version (while for Love Is Not Over, i had the opposite reaction)

run ballad ver and butterfly prologue mix didn't disappoint!! i knew they would be amazing

and the new songs are good too. i had to warm up to young forever but it's a perfect epilogue song imo

[jaelissi.livejournal.com]

I have Fire, Save ME, all the full versions and butterfly prologue mix in my playlist on Naver. I don't know how many times I've heard them since yesterday

[hitthoselightz.livejournal.com]

lol is house of cards a weekend cover?

i like save me

[lostintheechoes.livejournal.com]

i've been waiting all day to get home from work for this post!

Fire has been on repeat since forever. Save Me, ugh that song is amazing! can't wait for the video. House of Cards, omg i love that song before, i love it even more!

my feelings towards all the remix and alternative mixes:

[caipirinhas.livejournal.com]

I'm so in love with Save Me. It's been on repeat since yesterday.

And that full length House of Cards yessssss

I feel like Young Forever lost some steam because it came out ahead of the rest of the album. Even though it's a little simple, that song really hits me hard. I love the unison/chanting chorus at the end and the rapline singing.

[purekpopology.livejournal.com]

Loving everything on this album except the "I Need U" Remix.

Vocal line slayed me in HOC, especially Jimin. All of vocal line have great voices that give me those "wow" moments, but Jimin is next level for me. Something about his voice !!!!

[ms-minniemaus.livejournal.com]

I lost it at I Need U urban mix, Butterfly Prologue ver, Save Me, well, everything. I need my copy of the album asap thank you very much

TAES VOCALS IN THE EXTENDED VER OF HOUSE OF CARDS!!
