i love any performances where they're singing "live" and bighit cant get their grubby overproducing little hands on their vocals they sound so much better when their natural tone comes through
the telepathy performance was cute even though them trying to naturally vibe around the room also looks awkward lol taehyung seems to enjoy performing it though its always nice to see when hes into it
blue&grey is my favourite of these but its my favourite song from that album so it was always going to be and the set for it was very pretty too
btw op your mtv brasil vid has went private so its not showing!
listening to telepathy with Main Vocalist Jung Hoseok:
moving onto blue & grey with its lovely vocalizations and acoustic life goes on:
looking at and listening to kim seokjin:
the sets were beautiful, the (maybe not so unplugged? idk) vocals on point! this seemed to have been filmed a while ago (and i'm fine with no dynamite performance!!)
Blue & Grey is my favorite from BE, I'm so glad they performed it T.T
I don't like Coldplay but "Fix You" is a beautiful song and they did her justice. Jungkook sounded really good! And the rap line doing the harmonies yes please!
I think they began to work on it in the end of September/beginning of October because we began to see clues in the ON:E concerts. With BE being a no choreo album, they didn't have to spend that much time in the dance studio. But I feel like the new album will have a TT with a hard choreo. Poor them lol
Your taste Millie! Blue & Grey is my fave too 🥺
I never listened to Fix You much when Coldplay released it because I don't really care that much about their songs, but hearing BTS' cover gave me a new appreciation for the song.
I hate Chris Martin and his performative eco friendly bullshit but the lyrics for "Fix You" and the way they wrote the song for Gwyneth Paltrow after she lost her father, I mean it's cute.
Fix you was so beautiful!!!!! And the harmonizations were a wonderful touch! Bighit that’s how you do high notes not that madness you put BTS through in their own songs. I listened to dynamite after fix you and I was annoyed after the first few notes because the strain they have to put their voices under was so obvious
tbh seeing as Jin's bridge, which was literally the ONLY part of the song that was strained (I thought he did well otherwise but he should have stuck to falsetto instead of trying to "belt") got the most praise from armys, I unfortunately think Bang PD is onto something with his struggle high notes obsession. Those always get the most praise from the average fan on twitter and YT.
Yeah, his "belting" sounded a little strained but it's not the most strained he's sounded, so I'll give it a pass. However, I am over the struggle high notes. Let the boys sing in their natural register and reach notes that are actually in their comfortable range.
Fix You was great. I didn’t know MTV already spoiled it (not on stan Twitter so no clue what ARMY are mad about these days) so I was super surprised. V killed it at the end. The rappers singing sounded great, even Suga lol. I do however feel that Jimin and Jin need better vocal coaches, their plaintive tone evokes emotion but they also don’t sing very clear notes and it can affect the quality of their performance.
Other than that this was great. They do not have to keep performing Dynamite though. It’s clear that it’s their hype song cos they seem to wanna get up and dance but I could listen to something else from their album if they give it a chance.
From what I understand after doing a quick google coach, apparently Taehyung, Jungkook and Jin all have the same vocal coach as Kang Daniel and TWICE...Which, I have no idea if that is a good thing or bad thing so take that as you will. It doesn't say that Jimin shares a vocal coach with them, but he and Jin could definitely use better ones. It's all about the technique, with the right technique they could sound so much less strained but also be more flexible with their sound.
I love how their vocal colours shine when they let their voice relax. All of them, but especially JinMin sound so much nicer when they don't push for those high notes Bighit loves so much. I thought they all did really well, wish the rappers would have gotten a little more to do perhaps.
My biased ass is here to reiterate that Taehyung's voice is my fave lol I am also pleased with how pleasant they all sounded in this cover. No more struggle high notes and strained falsettos please and thank you Bang PD!
But anyways, I really loved the Fix You cover. I've been playing it more than the other songs that they performed for this set. I even listened to the original. Can't believe BTS actually revived my interest in Coldplay lmao
Blue&Grey remains beautiful, it is probably my favourite ballad by them besides Butterfly, I don't really consider Spring Day a ballad because it's a bit more mid tempo.
The performance of Telepathy was cute, would have loved to see Dis-ease too, but I guess that will be a performance for another time.
No, I am not listening to Dynamite nor Life Goes On for the umpteenth time because I am tired of both of those songs.
