I really like it. This is Exo's first rock ballad, I believe, and they did it really well.
General mood of the song and mv match my current mood so I'll definitely be listening to it on repeat

I love everything about this!!!!!!!

The mv is so beautifully shot. The song, vocals, and harmonies, are on point. My boys always deliver!!

Edit: currently listening to the album now, and the rest of the songs sound amazing so far

It's beautiful! <333 The song is really lovely and the visuals are spectacular as always. Chanyeol's singing voice makes me melt

I cried.

The MV is gorgeous in it's simplicity and I love the palette choice.

ALSO MINSEOK'S FINAL CHORUS

[daynr.livejournal.com]

It was almost belting! And better pronunciation than Suho!

[kippeun.livejournal.com]

It's beautiful.

EDIT: The whole album is amazing. I shouldn't be surprised.

junmyeon singing in the second chorus <333

This album is a masterpiece. Universe sounds magical, loving all the echo and silence. The MV is aesthetically pleasing.

....this sounds great :o

I've kind of drifted away from exo lately because I don't like the r'n'b style they're going for (also Baek's higher range hurts my ears), but if the rest of this album is anything like this song then sign me up!

O man this is so beautiful ❤️ i really love the colours of the mv and just the whole song was really well done

[daceymormont.livejournal.com]

kyungsoo!!! he sounds so good
very aesthetically pleasing mv and also sehun's singing!!! minseok's everything!!!

[yukwons.livejournal.com]

KIM MINSEOK AND KIM JUNMYEON!!!!!!!!!!!

I really love universe. It’s so pleasing. I love all their voices. And the other b-sides esp stay and fall are great.

[smilla-sini.livejournal.com]

I suggest everyone to listen to the whole album. All the songs are amazing. Been Through and Lights Out should be featured in some sad romance movie, I swear.

i cried everything about this is so beautiful ;__; already their best winter title track!


also, i hope OP will make a listening post bcs the album of the year deserves it

[gloomykuma.livejournal.com]

this album completely blew me away... xiu's voice is so, so gorgeous 8__8

[strangerstheme.livejournal.com]

Suho's voice!! the song is beautiful

[blck-ink.livejournal.com]

when chanyeol was harmonizing with suho and baekhuyn 😍😍

[yuujinchous.livejournal.com]

exo's best winter title track yet, i LOVE it! kings of expanding into all kinds of music genres! some of my fave scenes include kai tied up by a bunch of ropes, pcy taking off his sweater (lmao) and whatever jongdae, kai and baekhyun were posing as. i love the close-ups, i love suho/pcy and baekhyun/pcy harmonizing together, i love their voices, especially kyungsoo's, i love ... everything. thank you and bless you, exo!!! ♥♥♥

Universe fits what I’m feeling right now. They sound so good. And Minseok at the chorus? YES. He sounds so good! I gotta listen to the whole album now lol

[lycorisc.livejournal.com]

fits this specific holiday mood.. i love their winter albums but this is A+++

[violoncelliste.livejournal.com]

i love it! it's beautiful and simple, i love the colors of the mv too.

[imahurricane.livejournal.com]

i wasn't expecting the last chorus is gonna be minseok's!!! i had tears when i first saw it!!! btw it's debuting at #1 on melon yas! waiting for the listening post cause i need to pour out everything i have to say about this album!

[warmstableplace.livejournal.com]

This is so beautiful, i'm speechless! I was not expecting Junmyeon and Minseok both singing the chorus that was such a nice surprise. They both sounded so good! The music video was also amazing, everybody looked so good! This is possibly my favorite winter release out of all they put out so far.

[gathyou.livejournal.com]

So beautiful and soothing ;_; And their voices were so well used in this!

[hakkais-shadow.livejournal.com]

Since no one else is gong to talk about it - I loved the first chorus when Jongdae came in. A lovely clear sound and wonderful contrast with Kyunsoo's introduction. Also loved that they let Jongdae sing in his normal register a few times before making him rise above everyone else once more.

So pleased there wasn't a rap line - not every song needs one and Chanyeol and Sehun sounded so nice just singing. Utilize Chanyeol's baritone more, SM. Hell, every company should utilize their baritones more, dammit.

[5dogs1cat.livejournal.com]

A+++++++

They really did Jongdae's range right this time i'm so proud! I love how he was the one who sang the first chorus. from the calmness of the first verse then BAM. Jongdae. He was everywhere i loved it so much *o*

Agree with the baritone comment. They're so nice to hear gdi let them sing.

[klauses.livejournal.com]

yeah i legit gasped when chen started singing. such a beautiful voice

[hpn88.livejournal.com]

man. now I just really want some coffee.
exo has such a talented vocal line and I'm glad they actually get time to shine unlike with a lot of other groups where they get relegated to B sides forever.

also is the power ballad making a comeback for kpop boy groups - W1 had beautiful and now we have this.

[lostintheechoes.livejournal.com]

its so soothing... i love it.

[heyitsrocky91.livejournal.com]

Exo's best winter title track and best winter mini album to date tbh. I loved all the songs. Been Through, Fall and Good Night are my absolute faves but Stay, Universe and Lights Out aren't too far behind.

[daynr.livejournal.com]

Oh man, I guess I was the only one, but a lot of the imagery in this MV stressed me out. Half the time they looked so anxious!

But I like the song lots, plus pretty boys doing pretty things.

[normanikordei.livejournal.com]

this is so cozy. it's really like a hot cup of coffee on a cold day. they're all so gorgeous, truly all visuals. kai is a beautiful man with a beautiful voice!! it's like melted chocolate. sehun I see you too w the vocals. I have to listen to the entire mini later but exo really extended christmas for the first time in history wow

[stillwaiting.livejournal.com]

Kyungsoo's voice is simply the best and perfect for songs like this <3

[keki7.livejournal.com]

Ballads aren't my cup of tea so the song was all right. They did sound lovely and looked amazing tho. 'Christmas Day' remains my favourite Christmas track of theirs. Give me RnB Exo all day, every day.

EVERYTHING IS BEAUTIFUL IM CRYING!!!!!!
