WINGS Behind story by RM
Park Sohyun Love Radio Part 1
Park Sohyun Love Radio Part 2
Wanted to share these because (especially in part 2 of Love Radio) they talk about how their solo songs were made/the thought that went into them, which I found really interesting. Poor Suga not even having a chance to promote First Love lol. Hoping we get more behind stories from all of them, i'd love to hear them talk more about their music.

Date: 2016-10-21 04:55 am (UTC)and i'm bored with nothing else to doi figured i'd leave my favorite parts here-bang pd suggested the solo songs idea
- rap mon had a talk with jungkook and wrote begin for him, apparently it got very emotional and was the most he's seen jungkook cry before.
-the spoken(? idk how else to describe it?) part in stigma had different versions.
-not mentioned here but jhope actually called his mom and recorded her for MAMA
-suga was against solo songs at first because he thought it was too early for them but after seeing everyones work (he was busy with his mixtape so he worked on his solo last), he felt they were ready. his song wasn't allowed to be played on radio because it didn't pass evaluations (brb checking his lyrics because i dont understand)
-rapmon's song was originally called "at dduksum(?)" (at [the place where he wrote it at])
-suga is the only one of the bighit producers that did not work on jin's song.
-there's a part in lost (vocal line song) about an ant story, rap monster wrote it in after bang pd told him the story but jimin (and me tbh) didn't understand why he included ants all of a sudden in there (i still don't lol)
-jimin had to ask rap monster to translate his speaking parts in the wings short films lol
-non album process related but jin bought jimin some really big yellow looking thing for his birthday that jimin can apparently ride?? around the dorm??

Date: 2016-10-21 05:54 am (UTC)jimin/jk relying so heavily on rm is cute to me idk & i want to hear his weird ant story now too
i personally loved that they all had solo songs, it added a really cool experimental vibe to the album with everyone showing a bit of their own style. my favorite is yoongi of course ♡
bummer it doesnt pass evaluation to be played since this is one of the few songs he has with no cussing lol. maybe it is due to the more sensual~ references in his lyrics? it could be deemed too mature i guess for radio

Date: 2016-10-21 08:03 am (UTC)i was also a bit skeptical about solo songs but in the end i'm really happy with it, i like most of them a lot - begin is one of my fave songs of the album, and the story behind it adds to the song for me (same with awake)
i really love namjoon talking about this album because i really feel he has had the largest hand in the album out of all of the members - it's obvious it's his baby :)
but yeah i'm curious as to why suga's song cannot be played on the radio?

Date: 2016-10-21 01:06 pm (UTC)And when I made the post I only watched the beginning of the vapp - now that I finished it my respect for namjoons love for music has grown so much - he really talked so extensively about what went into each song and the thoughts. I'm not a very emotional person but it really touched me hearing it all. You're right, it's practically his baby. :)

Date: 2016-10-22 03:23 pm (UTC)rapmon is such a sweet, thoughtful guy, and this comeback he is SO supportive of all the members, complimenting them whenever he finds the possibility. he must be such a constructive producer/ songwriter to work with :)
Date: 2016-10-21 11:04 am (UTC)When RM mentioned Jimin asking him about the narration in the short films, it reminded me of him hyping everyone's teasers/solo activities on twitter haha. He genuinely.. cares.. so.... much... Actual angel. ;;

Date: 2016-10-21 01:49 pm (UTC)And I did end up listening to LIE differently, knowing it's actually about Jimin's imposter syndrome. Same with BEGIN. I like the song, but after hearing it was written by RM, in the back left corner of my mind, it always sounded like RM's love song to his own hyungness. I couldn't escape that feeling. After hearing the behind story, it finally became completely Kookie's song.
P.s. did I ever mention how much I love RM's mind/personality/everything?
P.p.s. Gaeko hyung? THAT Gaeko hyung??

Date: 2016-10-21 04:19 pm (UTC)If anyone needs help accessing the Love Game video, here’s the direct link (https://openload.co/embed/mVY5V7c_GgY/161020_%EB%B0%95%EC%86%8C%ED%98%84%EC%9D%98_%EB%9F%AC%EB%B8%8C%EA%B2%8C%EC%9E%84_%EB%B0%A9%ED%83%84%EC%86%8C%EB%85%84%EB%8B%A8%28BTS%29_FULL.avi.mp4) (you still have disable adblock to get it to work I believe).
I love it when they go on Love Game, she's a fan so the questions are refreshing (not the usual stuff like Hoseok having to explain the meaning behind their group name, though it's fun to see the rest cringe in silence). It’s a shame they couldn’t play First Love, but Yoongi sneaking in bits and pieces of it throughout the show cracked me up. It was great to get more insight on the other solo tracks too. I love them calling each other genius composers/lyricists and such.
Also when Sohyun mentioned how it’s unfortunate Jin has such short parts in BTS songs. YES. Her asking Jimin if he could share some lines did kinda fluster him though (but if you’re straight up looking at line distribution stats, it’s Jungkook). It’s not Jimin/Jungkook’s fault, but I just want the BigHit producers to be more fair with line distribution.

Date: 2016-10-21 05:38 pm (UTC)Also re: Jins part. YES big hit give him more lines!! Awake shows he's vocally capable, I'm just waiting for it to spread beyond vocal line songs and solo songs. I think though she was referring to bst in this case though - Jimin had the most parts this comeback. That's prob why I liked this comeback a lot - they gave jimin/jhope a chance to shine more. Now if that could spread to Jin would be great...
