WEBVTT 00:06.460 --> 00:13.382 [SPEAKER_02]: Consequence Podcast Network 00:30.946 --> 00:32.468 [SPEAKER_01]: Bora, hey, iconic army. 00:32.828 --> 00:33.929 [SPEAKER_01]: Bora, hey. 00:34.830 --> 00:40.997 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, it's been 24 hours since we recorded an episode and we already have an update. 00:41.838 --> 00:50.988 [SPEAKER_01]: And we would be remiss if we did not immediately come to you all and talk about the track list for Auditoring that has been released. 00:51.448 --> 00:56.193 [SPEAKER_01]: We had to come back clear our schedule and we have to drop a quick episode about it for you. 00:56.474 --> 00:59.637 [SPEAKER_01]: So with that being said, let's get into it. 00:59.977 --> 01:00.598 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. 01:01.793 --> 01:04.038 [SPEAKER_01]: Welcome back, where you're hosts, I'm Kayla. 01:04.379 --> 01:06.524 [SPEAKER_00]: And I'm Bethany, and this is Standing BTS. 01:06.925 --> 01:09.270 [SPEAKER_01]: Your favorite informative fan-girl podcast. 01:09.651 --> 01:12.658 [SPEAKER_00]: All right, today we're going to hang out for just a little bit of time. 01:12.718 --> 01:19.954 [SPEAKER_00]: We're not going to be hanging out for a whole hour, but like Kayla was saying, the track list dropped the day after we recorded. 01:19.934 --> 01:21.477 [SPEAKER_00]: We were texting about it this morning. 01:21.518 --> 01:24.965 [SPEAKER_00]: We said, you know what, we got a record again immediately. 01:25.005 --> 01:28.954 [SPEAKER_00]: So we are here to just talk about the track list for our year-long. 01:29.275 --> 01:32.101 [SPEAKER_00]: There are so many theories going around with Army. 01:32.121 --> 01:33.143 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a lot of excitement. 01:33.163 --> 01:33.985 [SPEAKER_00]: Lots to talk about. 01:34.025 --> 01:35.729 [SPEAKER_00]: These titles are incredible. 01:35.769 --> 01:39.377 [SPEAKER_00]: So we're going to go through the entire track list with you guys today. 01:39.357 --> 01:44.424 [SPEAKER_01]: just give kind of our initial reaction and what we are excited about. 01:44.905 --> 01:55.400 [SPEAKER_01]: Before we get too far into it, we want to say thanks so much Iconics for being here and for all of your support you can support us extra if you'd like on patreon at patreon.com slash standing BTS. 01:55.420 --> 01:58.885 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, thanks for being here for all of your support and of course for listening. 01:58.865 --> 02:11.911 [SPEAKER_01]: So the trackless design itself that they released this morning follows like that red tape and bold lettering that we saw during the what is your love song campaign and promos. 02:12.732 --> 02:18.223 [SPEAKER_01]: And to me that's like the biggest connection that we see between the two so far. 02:18.203 --> 02:27.138 [SPEAKER_01]: When we look at the track titles, to me, none of them outwardly evoke ideas of love, like those promos were leading us to think they may. 02:27.238 --> 02:33.529 [SPEAKER_01]: Bethany, you and I even got to the point of like, is the hit track going to be like, what is your love song or something about that? 02:33.509 --> 02:39.903 [SPEAKER_01]: by considering that the original story of Adedang is based on a love story. 02:40.264 --> 02:48.964 [SPEAKER_01]: Maybe this entire track list is Serbina's BTS' love song to us right now, their own Adedang, as they've titled it. 02:49.084 --> 02:50.387 [SPEAKER_01]: So yeah, it's kind of the... 02:50.367 --> 02:52.232 [SPEAKER_01]: connection that we have with it right now. 02:52.473 --> 02:52.733 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 02:52.954 --> 03:06.570 [SPEAKER_00]: The only other thing is that, like, we were maybe thinking love would be in the title somewhere for some of these songs, but no, as we get into this list, the only kind of love that we're seeing is like, 03:06.550 --> 03:23.142 [SPEAKER_00]: more sexual kind of like physical love like body body and such like very like sexy sounding titles, but other than that, like it's not overtly like heart love, you know, more sweet and stuff. 03:23.122 --> 03:42.649 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we were really I think expecting like the very sweet kind of stuff just from those like Valentine's promos I will say that an army on Twitter flipped the hit track title swim upside down and if you flip it upside down You can kind of write the letters of what is your love song the 03:42.629 --> 03:59.558 [SPEAKER_01]: First letters of each of those words into that, which could be the connection there that could have been the hint the whole time and Wouldn't be crazy for BTS to do since they did like the save me flipped into I'm fine a couple ira's later So, you know, that might also be something of note 03:59.588 --> 04:07.656 [SPEAKER_00]: Definitely just interesting to see that like love is not really overtly there other than just like these kind of more, you know, sexy titles. 04:08.437 --> 04:08.537 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 04:08.557 --> 04:14.322 [SPEAKER_00]: So let's talk a little bit about just some of the producers and writers that are peaking our interest. 04:15.323 --> 04:20.729 [SPEAKER_00]: It's officially confirmed now that Diplo and Ryan Teter of One Republic are producers. 04:21.289 --> 04:27.435 [SPEAKER_00]: Diplo is on five different songs and Ryan Teter contributed to two different songs. 04:27.415 --> 04:32.604 [SPEAKER_00]: Also have note that Tyler Sprich comes up on a few songs. 04:32.684 --> 04:42.581 [SPEAKER_00]: He worked on Bad Bunny's DTMF album, and specifically produced that song, which was number one worldwide last year. 04:42.601 --> 04:45.266 [SPEAKER_00]: And Kayla, I know you probably are so excited. 04:45.607 --> 04:46.248 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm so sorry. 04:46.268 --> 04:46.969 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm so sorry. 04:48.392 --> 04:48.792 [SPEAKER_00]: I do. 04:48.912 --> 04:49.794 [SPEAKER_01]: I love him so much. 04:50.235 --> 04:50.976 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, 04:50.956 --> 04:59.852 [SPEAKER_01]: Tyler Spray worked on three of those songs on that album and to see him come up here and like I think he's on three or four songs on this album. 05:00.272 --> 05:12.053 [SPEAKER_01]: I think it's super exciting because obviously he's a hitmaker who is just like really tuned into what is going to be popular right now what's going to sound good. 05:12.033 --> 05:22.149 [SPEAKER_01]: and able to blend a lot of different music styles, which we know that like RM and Yungi have talked about, like we're covering a bunch of different genres on this album, so that's very exciting to me. 05:22.831 --> 05:29.902 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, Mike Will made it on a couple songs, surprise and excited to see him here too. 05:30.463 --> 05:38.496 [SPEAKER_00]: You see some ghost loop, which of course we love ghost loop is one of those old school producers we've seen, work all out with BTS, work all out with Yungi. 05:38.476 --> 05:45.353 [SPEAKER_00]: Of course, we have the classic icon Piedog on 10 out of 14 tracks. 05:45.894 --> 05:53.713 [SPEAKER_00]: This really excites us because Piedog is really a core element to the sound of BTS. 05:53.793 --> 05:56.620 [SPEAKER_00]: The BTS that we know and love, he is... 05:56.600 --> 06:00.185 [SPEAKER_00]: always bid in the background producing on all of their music. 06:00.205 --> 06:06.013 [SPEAKER_00]: So to see him on 10 out of over half of these songs is just gold for us. 06:06.113 --> 06:08.396 [SPEAKER_00]: We are thrilled to see him there. 06:08.436 --> 06:16.768 [SPEAKER_00]: We know that it's for sure going to be good and there's going to be elements of BTS that we know and love that are going to be sprinkled with within this album. 06:16.748 --> 06:33.269 [SPEAKER_00]: And then as always, we have a multiple BTS members who are ready to have bright and credits on a lot of these songs, RM specifically, is on every single one of these songs, RM, either wrote or produced 14 out of 14 songs here. 06:33.390 --> 06:42.942 [SPEAKER_00]: So how incredible are leader, nom Jun, of course, like his hands are all over this album, which we are thrilled about, but we also have 06:42.922 --> 06:50.998 [SPEAKER_00]: Jimin, the Jungkook is on several songs, of course, Jay Hope and Yungi as always, and we see Jin in there too. 06:51.018 --> 06:53.623 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, happy to see you. 06:53.643 --> 07:04.985 [SPEAKER_01]: And they're honestly not a single song that does not have a BTS member writing credit, usually multiple members have actually on every single song, multiple members have a writing credit. 07:05.005 --> 07:05.706 [SPEAKER_01]: So 07:05.686 --> 07:35.423 [SPEAKER_01]: really really of course staying true to who they are and just exciting for us as fans because we always tell how great of lyricists they are and how much like that has set them apart from the beginning and that they've had their hands and making their own music and of course they've told us a little bit about this process of creating Auditong and how they've worked with all these different amazing talented writers and producers but it is wonderful to still see them credited 07:35.403 --> 07:36.464 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 07:36.484 --> 07:37.966 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 07:37.986 --> 07:39.667 [SPEAKER_00]: Should we get the track list Kayla? 07:39.787 --> 07:40.168 [SPEAKER_00]: Let's do it. 07:40.188 --> 07:40.728 [SPEAKER_01]: Let's do it. 07:41.309 --> 07:58.326 [SPEAKER_01]: So we want to react to the titles of the track list ourselves and then we also have a little bit of information from a neighbor article to share that they put out just a quick blip of kind of the overall themes that each song is supposed to have, but of course they don't give away too much yet. 07:58.466 --> 08:02.710 [SPEAKER_01]: So the first track is called Body to Body and 08:02.690 --> 08:22.032 [SPEAKER_01]: this immediately like to Bethany and I were thinking jungle's 3D like he has that lyric in that song it's giving us ideas of like and like very sexy like let's you know um and we're turning up the heat from the beginning of the first track of the album to me 08:22.012 --> 08:34.594 [SPEAKER_00]: body to body and immediately go into like a physical love connection like there's no hiding with that and like you said jungle is 3D like those are like body to body to body. 08:34.634 --> 08:39.683 [SPEAKER_00]: Those are core lyrics that are repeated over and over so that's where I went to. 08:39.663 --> 08:41.025 [SPEAKER_00]: After that is Hula Again. 08:41.065 --> 08:48.473 [SPEAKER_00]: This title is so interesting to me because Hula Again is just a silly word in my mind. 08:48.493 --> 08:58.124 [SPEAKER_00]: It is just, I think, I picture someone who's being absolutely absurd and ridiculous and goofy and maybe a bit of a trouble maker. 08:58.184 --> 09:07.594 [SPEAKER_00]: And so I'm, I'm curious to see where this song goes, 09:07.574 --> 09:15.904 [SPEAKER_00]: I wonder if it's going to be more of a silly song kind of like their spine breaker round. 09:16.344 --> 09:25.154 [SPEAKER_01]: Look as spine breaker, you know, where I go to police because I agree with you what words do not to me that you use was troublemaker to me that's who like it. 09:25.234 --> 09:33.784 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the neighbor article says that who like it is supposed to have themes of reflecting the time they spent pioneering their paths around the world. 09:33.764 --> 09:55.543 [SPEAKER_01]: But to me, the use of this word makes me think of like, like, Jayho Pongson, like, hanging out with your friends, like goofing around, just like, you know, I mean, and totally like, carefree, let loose, but I feel like this song is gonna be like a banger, like, that's the energy that the title gives me. 09:55.583 --> 09:58.067 [SPEAKER_01]: Also, I just have to point out that, 09:58.047 --> 10:01.533 [SPEAKER_01]: with the writers and producers of the song. 10:01.573 --> 10:06.863 [SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of Hispanic names in the beginning of these writing credits and producers. 10:07.624 --> 10:18.604 [SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm wondering if the song is going to have like maybe a dragon tone flare or like some other Latin flare, which would also really interest me and I think would be a cool crossover. 10:18.584 --> 10:30.195 [SPEAKER_01]: not that different from like when they did airplane part two and they talked about traveling the world and that also you know they sang the lyrics of like El Mariachi and they brought in that Latin vibe for that song. 10:30.956 --> 10:47.933 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I like that aspect of it just bringing in having all of those additional producers and writers from Hispanic backgrounds working on this I could see that having this song they're saying is more about them in their pioneering and just traveling the world I could see that 10:47.913 --> 10:53.105 [SPEAKER_00]: It having more of that Latin flare to it that would be really really neat. 10:53.445 --> 11:05.272 [SPEAKER_00]: I also like think I was trying to think of who again and what other BTS song I was thinking of where they just go out on stage and have a whole bunch of fun But like boys with fun Like I really hope it's like a boys with fun. 11:05.312 --> 11:06.394 [SPEAKER_00]: That would be great 11:06.374 --> 11:11.384 [SPEAKER_00]: To see that live with BTS now with a brand new song, absolutely. 11:11.584 --> 11:14.490 [SPEAKER_00]: And imagine if it has a Latin Flare, how fun. 11:14.510 --> 11:14.670 [SPEAKER_00]: Totally. 11:15.191 --> 11:15.832 [SPEAKER_01]: Be so fun. 11:16.233 --> 11:19.920 [SPEAKER_01]: I do think that this song, just with a title, has to be a really fun song. 11:21.122 --> 11:21.323 [SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm. 11:21.343 --> 11:22.585 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 11:22.605 --> 11:26.172 [SPEAKER_00]: So the next song is aliens. 11:26.152 --> 11:29.159 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't really have too many thoughts about aliens. 11:29.499 --> 11:32.987 [SPEAKER_00]: I immediately went to Jins the astronaut, of course. 11:33.147 --> 11:35.512 [SPEAKER_00]: I can just feel like that's where I go. 11:35.573 --> 11:43.570 [SPEAKER_00]: But I'll be curious to see if this song at all relates to just like them. 11:43.550 --> 11:48.977 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know, like feeling either foreign or different Out of place. 11:49.077 --> 11:50.259 [SPEAKER_00]: Out of place. 11:50.279 --> 11:50.739 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 11:50.759 --> 11:50.859 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 11:51.641 --> 11:52.922 [SPEAKER_01]: I also like wonder. 11:53.643 --> 11:58.630 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the the word is just I agree. 11:58.670 --> 12:04.157 [SPEAKER_01]: It's hard for me to think about what that theme would be or what they're going to talk about with it. 12:04.197 --> 12:08.983 [SPEAKER_01]: When I think of aliens right now, and I always think like BTS is 12:08.963 --> 12:32.592 [SPEAKER_01]: like up with current events and talks about, you know, issues in the world are they going to address like issues of, you know, like racism or xenophobia with people traveling or moving or, you know, migrating to other countries and that's why they're using that word too. 12:32.572 --> 12:45.283 [SPEAKER_01]: I just, I'm really, because Jay helped talk about things like that with like a future or equal sign on his last album of getting into some of those themes. 12:45.724 --> 12:50.448 [SPEAKER_01]: And so I really wonder if they're going to dip into that at all, but I also agree with you. 12:50.528 --> 13:01.718 [SPEAKER_01]: Like the first place my mind goes is that they are talking about themselves as kind of feeling like out of place. 13:01.698 --> 13:20.044 [SPEAKER_00]: in the limelight and being a star can be alienating in its own way because people will never get you the same or like as a celebrity you almost seem a little like an alien like you don't seem like a human almost but yeah in the context of this 13:20.024 --> 13:25.910 [SPEAKER_00]: um, article that we have that gave sneak peeks into what each song is about. 13:25.970 --> 13:29.173 [SPEAKER_00]: It does say it contains aspirations for the world. 13:29.934 --> 13:38.122 [SPEAKER_00]: So I could see the route that you're thinking too, like maybe it is talking about like aspirations for a world where no one is constantly alien. 13:38.182 --> 13:40.284 [SPEAKER_01]: Everybody is accepted and welcomed. 13:40.384 --> 13:46.690 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, first of all, so I'm curious about what that is going to be for sure, especially coming after. 13:46.670 --> 13:47.892 [SPEAKER_01]: who again, you know. 13:48.572 --> 14:04.573 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, these are three, like I think very interesting big name songs to start out the album and then we go into FYA, which I can only guess on what this acronym is going to be. 14:04.633 --> 14:09.640 [SPEAKER_01]: FYA is supposed to showcase the excitement for their comeback. 14:09.620 --> 14:11.803 [SPEAKER_01]: For me, I just love an acronym song. 14:11.843 --> 14:13.626 [SPEAKER_01]: I can't wait to hear it in the song. 14:13.666 --> 14:16.610 [SPEAKER_01]: Bethany, what did you say people online were thinking that it might mean? 14:16.630 --> 14:17.391 [SPEAKER_01]: For you? 14:17.452 --> 14:17.892 [SPEAKER_00]: For you? 14:18.052 --> 14:19.014 [SPEAKER_01]: For you, Army. 14:19.034 --> 14:20.055 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for you, Army. 14:20.156 --> 14:20.556 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 14:20.696 --> 14:29.610 [SPEAKER_00]: When I see FYI, I immediately think like FYI because that's the acronym that I most familiar with and so FYI is for your information. 14:29.870 --> 14:33.315 [SPEAKER_00]: So for you, Army seems like a pretty 14:33.295 --> 14:41.364 [SPEAKER_00]: solid, potential, interpretation of what this is, but it could be anything, and it also makes me think of like, Ugg. 14:42.305 --> 14:42.525 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 14:43.206 --> 14:45.028 [SPEAKER_01]: Just the short three letter. 14:45.248 --> 14:45.408 [SPEAKER_01]: Sure. 14:45.428 --> 14:46.309 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, yeah. 14:46.329 --> 14:54.839 [SPEAKER_01]: If you're going the opposite way with like, Ugg, where Ugg is a very like, brash song, like, come and fight me type of song, I would love, now, don't get me wrong. 14:55.339 --> 15:03.268 [SPEAKER_01]: If you at FYI for you army is very sweet, very cute, and I'm going to love it if that's what it is, but it would be really cool if it was like, fuck you all. 15:03.248 --> 15:19.648 [SPEAKER_01]: and it was like, you know, like a pissed off kind of like we're reclaiming our territory kind of like rockin' out song, taking it that route I think would be very exciting and like I want to song you that I can just crank up and blast in the car. 15:19.688 --> 15:24.214 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, and also Jungi did say it's going to be a more mature album. 15:25.856 --> 15:27.518 [SPEAKER_00]: So if it is. 15:27.667 --> 15:28.428 [SPEAKER_00]: Fuck you all. 15:28.928 --> 15:30.630 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's more magenta, right? 15:31.551 --> 15:33.553 [SPEAKER_00]: So it's also I'm thinking D. Day. 15:34.154 --> 15:44.325 [SPEAKER_00]: Huh, with sugar and j-hub like huh, uh, FYA, I don't know, like those like short little threes, three-letter titles. 15:44.506 --> 15:49.992 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that there's a potential that could be a little bit more of a f-u song. 15:50.092 --> 15:54.957 [SPEAKER_00]: Apparently it's just too showcase the excitement for their comeback. 15:54.937 --> 16:04.035 [SPEAKER_01]: Which is why it could definitely be like a for you army and like that would be very cute I think especially Or anyone who doubted them though about being like that's true. 16:04.236 --> 16:04.837 [SPEAKER_01]: That's true. 16:04.857 --> 16:15.679 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, that's very true That's so because everybody else is like same things gonna happen at BTS What happened to like one direction and then saying get no, but like they're actually coming back 16:15.659 --> 16:17.541 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it could go either way. 16:17.561 --> 16:41.548 [SPEAKER_01]: I do think FYA being for you army going into like number two the next song My work because immediately when we read number two, we're thinking like next chapter BTS's chapter two this like post military time and I technically they declared chapter two is being the time of their solo work But like two point oh is like that they are to me 16:41.528 --> 16:43.090 [SPEAKER_01]: their BTS 2.0. 16:43.731 --> 16:48.977 [SPEAKER_01]: BTS 1.0 pre-military service and now they're back together. 16:49.017 --> 16:51.259 [SPEAKER_01]: They're better than ever BTS 2.0. 16:51.480 --> 16:54.744 [SPEAKER_01]: I want this song to be like all about each one of them. 16:54.804 --> 16:57.146 [SPEAKER_01]: Like how phenomenal they are. 16:57.246 --> 17:00.370 [SPEAKER_01]: Like I want this to be like a 7 member cipher. 17:00.490 --> 17:04.515 [SPEAKER_01]: Where they just like talk their shit, you know? 17:04.495 --> 17:10.371 [SPEAKER_01]: It really declare who they are and why they deserve the crown. 17:10.632 --> 17:12.818 [SPEAKER_00]: They're present state who they know now. 17:12.838 --> 17:13.319 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 17:13.580 --> 17:18.633 [SPEAKER_00]: After all this time, the new versions of themselves, the new BTS as an identity. 17:18.653 --> 17:18.914 [SPEAKER_00]: There you go. 17:19.075 --> 17:20.378 [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely. 17:20.358 --> 17:42.045 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so following this track is another number, number 29, which we think is so interesting to have 2.0 and then number 29 right after it and what's interesting about number 29 is when you go and look at the credits, there are no credits, which has us thinking that this could potentially be a skit. 17:42.025 --> 17:55.100 [SPEAKER_00]: We thought like, oh, yeah, I could be like an interlude, but even with an instrumental interlude there's usually someone credited for the production of that song writing and so how cool would it be to get a skit? 17:55.120 --> 18:07.054 [SPEAKER_00]: I would love a skit that is so traditional BTS and we've talked about their skits before their skits are always really reflective of where they are in that time frame. 18:07.034 --> 18:32.738 [SPEAKER_00]: like I know that the very early on skits they talked a lot about working hard and hoping that their album succeeds and that if it what it what will happen if it doesn't succeed they feel like it's like their last chance to really make it and they reflect on that a lot and so number 29 if it is like a skit we talked about what would they potentially be talking about and Kayla you and I were talking about how 18:32.718 --> 18:40.392 [SPEAKER_00]: 29 really acts as an age in our mind as we both are now like early 30s. 18:40.412 --> 18:51.773 [SPEAKER_00]: 29 is that last year of your youth or your kind of young young adulthood or just yeah totally. 18:51.793 --> 18:56.481 [SPEAKER_00]: For you kind of get into a more mature age once you reach your 30s. 18:56.461 --> 19:07.204 [SPEAKER_00]: And then Kayla, you were talking about to just the service, the military service and Korea that that's the last year for you to potentially serve before. 19:07.224 --> 19:07.745 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 19:08.527 --> 19:11.193 [SPEAKER_01]: Like you have to join by the end of your 30th year. 19:11.213 --> 19:13.558 [SPEAKER_01]: And so 29 is like this. 19:13.538 --> 19:31.987 [SPEAKER_01]: I think maybe a significant cutoff age that, you know, people have in their mind is like, this is maybe my last year to be young and to have that youthfulness, too, because when you serve, and you get out, then after that, you're like 31, 32, you know? 19:32.007 --> 19:39.158 [SPEAKER_01]: So I think in both cases, like for us and in Korean culture, that age of 29 can have such a significance, 19:39.138 --> 20:04.875 [SPEAKER_01]: I thought a lot about like how Yungi has the song called 28 and that in that song he really reflects on becoming who he is as an autonomous adult and what that age of maturity meant to him and so I do think that it's likely if this is a skit that BTS are gonna be reflecting on like how like what their youth was and what it means and like that 20:04.855 --> 20:11.748 [SPEAKER_01]: you know next chapter maybe that they're going into now and I think it would be super super cool to get a skit after all these years. 20:11.768 --> 20:15.695 [SPEAKER_01]: I don't know that we've had one since like what love yourself heard. 20:15.755 --> 20:26.796 [SPEAKER_01]: Love yourself heard the last one but I think the billboard music awards so yeah definitely classic BTS classic hip hop album to have a skit on there so I love to have it. 20:26.776 --> 20:36.102 [SPEAKER_01]: And then it goes into track 7, which is the hit track swim, and that Bethany and I both noticed how it's track number 7. 20:36.182 --> 20:41.798 [SPEAKER_01]: Significant that they chose the 7th track to be the hit track. 20:41.778 --> 21:09.726 [SPEAKER_01]: Swim immediately like even before seeing what the neighbor article was saying about it It immediately makes me think of like swimming against the current or swimming with the current Or you know like the act of swimming is like a survival act also something you have to work hard to do Also, you know just like a continual effort but something that like you are capable of doing And sometimes people think about swimming like the term of like keeping your head above water to like just keep going 21:09.706 --> 21:22.686 [SPEAKER_01]: And so that's immediately where my mind went about like what is swim going to be talking about is like that forward motion yeah forward motion I had a really strange interpretation of swim. 21:22.706 --> 21:32.001 [SPEAKER_00]: I think I don't know just because of body to body and even like animals and one more night like 21:31.981 --> 21:39.359 [SPEAKER_00]: When I saw Swim, I immediately went to Chasing Lanterns, Swim, which is a extremely sexy song. 21:40.221 --> 21:44.832 [SPEAKER_00]: And so, I don't know, this album is giving me a tour in that way. 21:44.872 --> 21:50.445 [SPEAKER_00]: And so, Swim, I don't know, I feel like it could be sexy. 21:50.746 --> 21:52.409 [SPEAKER_01]: I just had a different thought. 21:52.449 --> 22:10.982 [SPEAKER_01]: No, and this is kind of along the lines of what you were saying, but think about the original Auditon lore folklore of the story of how they were on separate sides of the river and one of the ways the story goes is that he was trying to swim to her 22:10.962 --> 22:16.295 [SPEAKER_01]: And like this could be like in, you know, the neighbor article says that RM took charge of the lyrics. 22:16.355 --> 22:18.621 [SPEAKER_01]: He added sincerity to the song's message. 22:19.142 --> 22:26.119 [SPEAKER_01]: It's somewhat about the love for life and what what if this is like, you know, like swimming too. 22:26.099 --> 22:27.864 [SPEAKER_01]: Like that purpose in life. 22:27.884 --> 22:38.671 [SPEAKER_01]: First moving to that love or you know, like so mean through all of that and what a great Oh, what a great idea to go along with the original story of Adidas. 22:38.691 --> 22:40.516 [SPEAKER_00]: That yeah, that's perfect. 22:40.857 --> 22:42.842 [SPEAKER_00]: I I feel like that 22:42.822 --> 23:03.166 [SPEAKER_00]: has to be the interpretation, just because we've gotten confirmation that swim is more about just like in those challenging times, to not the option of thinking or swimming to swim, to continue on even when these waves of life are being thrown at you. 23:03.226 --> 23:09.673 [SPEAKER_00]: And so yeah, in the 23:09.653 --> 23:10.955 [SPEAKER_00]: They're trying to reach each other. 23:10.975 --> 23:18.126 [SPEAKER_00]: There's a body of water separating them and choosing to to get in and swim through it to endure. 23:18.146 --> 23:18.527 [SPEAKER_00]: It's beautiful. 23:18.547 --> 23:19.368 [SPEAKER_00]: They're so fast. 23:19.388 --> 23:20.390 [SPEAKER_01]: They're so fast. 23:20.690 --> 23:21.472 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh my God. 23:21.492 --> 23:21.712 [SPEAKER_00]: Awesome. 23:21.832 --> 23:23.355 [SPEAKER_00]: The love of life is so nom-joon. 23:24.096 --> 23:25.418 [SPEAKER_01]: It's so nom-joon of him. 23:25.458 --> 23:26.459 [SPEAKER_01]: He's come so far. 23:26.520 --> 23:27.721 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm so honest. 23:27.742 --> 23:34.412 [SPEAKER_01]: I'm just so proud of him and this is why I love his lyrics so much because he's able to express the full 23:34.392 --> 23:46.052 [SPEAKER_01]: spectrum of like being so down in the pits and then like the complete opposite of just like loving and enjoying life for like what it is and that's just awesome. 23:46.373 --> 23:50.159 [SPEAKER_00]: That's so cool that he changed the lyrics too to add sincerity to the song. 23:50.820 --> 23:51.101 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 23:52.023 --> 23:52.283 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 23:54.035 --> 23:55.859 [SPEAKER_01]: Okay, the next song after swim. 23:55.899 --> 23:57.223 [SPEAKER_01]: Mary go around. 23:57.904 --> 24:03.858 [SPEAKER_01]: Mary go around like when you think about writing on a Mary go around as a kid, it just like goes around in a circle. 24:03.959 --> 24:08.770 [SPEAKER_01]: So to me, the song is going to be about like being stuck in a cycle. 24:09.205 --> 24:10.648 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely. 24:10.668 --> 24:15.636 [SPEAKER_00]: I think of just being second a cycle, the same repeating, over and over. 24:15.656 --> 24:19.763 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I thought a little bit about Squid Game and just like the merry-go-round. 24:19.944 --> 24:20.645 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 24:20.665 --> 24:22.007 [SPEAKER_00]: That's interesting that too. 24:22.027 --> 24:25.273 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm not really a merry-go-round, but it's like the circular motion. 24:25.253 --> 24:33.265 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I wonder if we're going to get some like, remember in Jimman's face album, still best most underrated album of all time. 24:33.966 --> 24:41.116 [SPEAKER_01]: Do you remember what he like sampled like that kind of carnivaly music at the beginning of like face off? 24:41.236 --> 24:46.804 [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder if Mary go around because it does kind of a voc carnival visuals when I hear Mary go around. 24:46.844 --> 24:53.033 [SPEAKER_01]: I wonder if it will have some kind of music like that 24:53.013 --> 24:57.260 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, there would be kind of cool if they had some sampling like that in there. 24:57.721 --> 25:16.573 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I Don't know we'll find out, but yeah, that's where I went to with Margarin around is just the same thing repeating over and over After that is normal and Normal is in all caps and this is one of the songs that Ryan Teter ended up working on 25:16.553 --> 25:21.603 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like normal is very contrast to alien. 25:22.044 --> 25:29.999 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like, but normal, I guess this song, it's supposed to explore emotions felt both on stage and off stage. 25:30.600 --> 25:36.351 [SPEAKER_00]: So I could see them talking a lot about just trying to find. 25:36.331 --> 25:45.022 [SPEAKER_00]: What normal feels like for them when they live such abnormal lives being super stars and the biggest band in the world. 25:45.583 --> 25:53.153 [SPEAKER_00]: Um, so I'll be curious to kind of see This might I feel like this could potentially be a slower song. 25:53.173 --> 25:53.894 [SPEAKER_00]: I don't know. 25:53.914 --> 25:58.980 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like one republic is known for just that more alternative. 25:58.960 --> 26:04.989 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, sounds like it's seeing it going along with that, but maybe it's just having more emotional depth to it. 26:05.049 --> 26:11.159 [SPEAKER_00]: Like the song we have more, I don't know, something like strings or something to evoke more emotion from it. 26:12.000 --> 26:14.744 [SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I would love the strings. 26:15.325 --> 26:18.069 [SPEAKER_01]: I think that would be beautiful in a song like this talking about. 26:18.109 --> 26:20.793 [SPEAKER_01]: I do agree with you on what you think it's going to be about. 26:20.854 --> 26:24.179 [SPEAKER_01]: With a title like that, I think what else? 26:24.559 --> 26:27.043 [SPEAKER_01]: What other direction are we taking it? 26:27.023 --> 26:35.555 [SPEAKER_01]: So BTS to want to explore that topic of, you know, like that, that concept of a normal life, because I feel like they really haven't had that. 26:36.256 --> 26:49.774 [SPEAKER_01]: And they have to figure out what is a normal life for them, and it's not, it doesn't look the same as their family or their friends or, you know, like just other people who aren't really the use of the biggest band in the world. 26:49.754 --> 27:09.884 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, but yeah, the fact that Ryan Teder produced this and wrote on it, I am excited because I do think one Republic uses like strings in a great way and can really bring that kind of pop rock alternative mix into it But yeah, I can definitely slow it down here a little bit to be more definitely reflective I think with that title. 27:10.025 --> 27:11.026 [SPEAKER_01]: Pretty reflective. 27:11.347 --> 27:16.234 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, um, the next track like animals 27:16.687 --> 27:21.735 [SPEAKER_01]: This is like, this is one of two tracks that's making me think of Maroon 5 songs. 27:21.755 --> 27:25.962 [SPEAKER_01]: Like, I forget what song it is that he's like, like, animals. 27:25.982 --> 27:29.147 [SPEAKER_00]: And pretty sure it's called like animals, or just animals. 27:29.728 --> 27:39.724 [SPEAKER_01]: Animals maybe, but like to me, if we're talking about like animals going along with the body to body, the, you know, I think, 27:39.704 --> 27:54.570 [SPEAKER_01]: This is giving me like sexy fun, you know, like let's play around and, you know, like really let go of our human everything, really start inhibitions and just, you know, go back to like instincts almost. 27:54.811 --> 27:55.832 [SPEAKER_01]: Going back to instincts. 27:57.515 --> 27:59.799 [SPEAKER_00]: That's how I feel right, like just like having you know. 27:59.820 --> 28:00.200 [SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely. 28:00.220 --> 28:04.648 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like when you think like animals, it's just any kind of, 28:05.928 --> 28:12.633 [SPEAKER_00]: more higher thinking, or I don't know, like your inhibitions are no longer there. 28:12.653 --> 28:13.757 [SPEAKER_01]: Totally. 28:13.797 --> 28:15.122 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, you're not worried about it. 28:16.186 --> 28:16.326 [SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm. 28:16.559 --> 28:17.841 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, absolutely. 28:17.881 --> 28:18.863 [SPEAKER_00]: I'll be curious. 28:19.104 --> 28:21.729 [SPEAKER_00]: It might be a little bit more of a party song too. 28:21.789 --> 28:22.630 [SPEAKER_00]: We'll see. 28:22.671 --> 28:24.454 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I think so, like, a let loose. 28:25.456 --> 28:25.997 [SPEAKER_00]: Mm-hmm. 28:26.017 --> 28:26.277 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 28:27.179 --> 28:31.828 [SPEAKER_00]: After that, the song is, they don't know about us. 28:32.008 --> 28:32.850 [SPEAKER_00]: They don't know about us. 28:32.910 --> 28:39.142 [SPEAKER_00]: And I think this is one of the few songs that we have Jim in listed in the credits of it. 28:39.803 --> 28:39.883 [SPEAKER_00]: But, 28:39.863 --> 28:44.514 [SPEAKER_00]: This one, I, I don't know why I find the capitalization so interesting. 28:44.535 --> 28:48.925 [SPEAKER_00]: This is an all, like, uh, it's, uh, lower case. 28:49.006 --> 28:49.848 [SPEAKER_00]: All lower case. 28:50.189 --> 28:54.058 [SPEAKER_00]: And instead of saying about, it's more casual with bow us. 28:54.198 --> 28:55.662 [SPEAKER_00]: They don't know about us. 28:55.642 --> 29:03.971 [SPEAKER_00]: And to me, it makes me think of the way that you would talk to someone who is a really close friend. 29:04.532 --> 29:05.873 [SPEAKER_00]: It's not as formal. 29:06.033 --> 29:09.998 [SPEAKER_00]: It sounds like this is like a text message that was sent quickly. 29:10.038 --> 29:17.005 [SPEAKER_00]: And response to a friend who maybe is feeling insecure about something that was said or whatever. 29:17.205 --> 29:20.769 [SPEAKER_00]: And the quick response and reassurance of they don't know about us. 29:21.330 --> 29:24.113 [SPEAKER_00]: So I feel like this could very much be a 29:24.093 --> 29:49.847 [SPEAKER_00]: BTS Army kind of song where I also think of RM's live where he told us to focus on us and the use of us and to not really be caring so much about others opinions outside of either the fandom or the group and being a more reassuring song of we are who we are and that's all that matters. 29:49.827 --> 30:05.052 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I really love that interpretation and the the one thing that I think about the all lower case is that it makes this song title stand out because all of the other songs the first letter is capitalized or like a normal all the letters are capitalized 30:05.032 --> 30:07.656 [SPEAKER_01]: And so is this song like the lower case? 30:07.676 --> 30:23.237 [SPEAKER_01]: Is it making the song understated like you don't we don't even need to Like capitalize on how much we know that this is true that we just are who we are and like we don't really have anything to prove like They don't know about us. 30:23.317 --> 30:25.420 [SPEAKER_01]: They don't know like who we really are 30:25.400 --> 30:27.944 [SPEAKER_01]: And we don't have to explain it now. 30:28.285 --> 30:33.112 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, it's not like they didn't put it here in caps, you know, they didn't, it's not declarative. 30:33.172 --> 30:37.299 [SPEAKER_01]: So I'm really hoping for like a really confident song here, like I want it. 30:37.859 --> 30:51.401 [SPEAKER_01]: I know we talked about like FYA or like Hooligan or something bringing in some of that like aug or like ha vibe, but I feel like with a title like this where it is supposed to be like it's giving a little bit nonchalant. 30:51.781 --> 30:53.584 [SPEAKER_01]: I want something that's hype. 30:53.564 --> 30:55.827 [SPEAKER_01]: with something that looks so understated. 30:56.127 --> 31:03.136 [SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I think I could see that, like with it being hype, especially who's produced on this, we have P-Dog Ghostsleep, all three wrappers and Jim and... 31:03.156 --> 31:03.576 [SPEAKER_01]: There we go. 31:04.237 --> 31:04.518 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 31:05.038 --> 31:05.279 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 31:05.299 --> 31:06.440 [SPEAKER_01]: I mean, that's right. 31:06.560 --> 31:07.281 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 31:07.301 --> 31:20.818 [SPEAKER_01]: We also have no idea if any of these songs are like sub-unit songs yet, and presumably none of these songs have like any other features, like any outside features, or they just have not said that yet. 31:20.858 --> 31:23.301 [SPEAKER_01]: They've only released the writers and producers, 31:23.281 --> 31:29.332 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, yeah, I'm excited that it's like the rap line and Jimin writing on this song because that is such a good Next. 31:29.352 --> 31:37.407 [SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure like they don't know about us is like an hug or a huh or a huh a dang or something But then there's Jimin in there. 31:37.447 --> 31:46.825 [SPEAKER_00]: It's just like let me really make this about us You know like it make it a little extra sweet like yeah, it's a song that is super high but 31:46.805 --> 31:54.219 [SPEAKER_00]: you know, we need that like Jim and writing like the lyrics to make it super, you know, intimate and sweet for just us. 31:55.041 --> 32:04.459 [SPEAKER_01]: Jim and us, shown us like, you know, so many like facets of like what he wants to talk about between like face and muse and like his 32:04.439 --> 32:20.456 [SPEAKER_01]: previous solo work like promise you know promise very very sweet and like loving and adorable and then going to like face off and you know like set me free part two totally different side of him so I wonder which side of his lyricism he was bringing to the song. 32:20.976 --> 32:21.657 [SPEAKER_00]: Say no more. 32:21.717 --> 32:23.379 [SPEAKER_00]: He belongs on the song. 32:23.399 --> 32:28.624 [SPEAKER_00]: He could definitely be on a district. 32:28.604 --> 32:29.786 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, for sure. 32:31.469 --> 32:38.382 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, so the next song this is also giving me room five is one more night because we're room five has a song. 32:38.883 --> 32:51.186 [SPEAKER_00]: I think that's of course what I immediately thought of but I also really felt like one more night could be a like anthem concert song. 32:51.166 --> 33:13.191 [SPEAKER_00]: Because I think of like those last few moments you're at a concert with BTS and you're having so much fun It's like a so what you know like you just want to party you want to be together and you just want to continue that energy and You never want it to end and you want like that one more night You never you just don't want it to be over 33:13.171 --> 33:15.597 [SPEAKER_01]: I love this idea. 33:15.657 --> 33:24.096 [SPEAKER_01]: I am totally on board because I feel like I mean one more night is another one of those songs that to me evokes like those kind of sexy themes. 33:24.156 --> 33:24.958 [SPEAKER_01]: Yes. 33:25.599 --> 33:32.074 [SPEAKER_01]: Like by the putting it in the idea of a concert being like concert album, you know. 33:32.054 --> 33:46.212 [SPEAKER_01]: and especially because a lot of us going to the concert like we're not going to multiple shows, we're going to just like that one show and so to have that like the song kind of representing the extension of that I think would be really cool. 33:46.713 --> 34:00.390 [SPEAKER_00]: It's so interesting that we're talking about one more night too just sounding like more sexy because body to body is also sexy but body to body is the song that is actually related to a concert that apparently it's declaring the desire 34:00.370 --> 34:12.623 [SPEAKER_00]: the audience is what body the body is about, but yeah, I feel like these two might be going hand in hand with just maybe a little bit more sexy, maybe a little bit more concert songs. 34:13.605 --> 34:16.152 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, some of they told us it's my turn. 34:16.132 --> 34:19.541 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, the 13th track is called, please. 34:19.642 --> 34:31.153 [SPEAKER_01]: And I just think it is so relevant that Junguk's please don't go or please don't change was like charting this week and response to his weaver's live because 34:31.133 --> 34:36.060 [SPEAKER_01]: When I think and like read the word, please on an album, that's exactly where I go. 34:36.100 --> 34:50.379 [SPEAKER_01]: It's like two of those themes of that song, especially thinking about BTS and thinking about all the time that we've been apart from them as Army that idea of being like, please stay here with me, please be here, you know, let's stay together. 34:50.399 --> 34:54.184 [SPEAKER_01]: That's where my mind goes with what this song could be about. 34:54.244 --> 34:55.386 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 34:55.518 --> 34:56.339 [SPEAKER_00]: I agree with you. 34:56.359 --> 35:08.311 [SPEAKER_00]: I feel like it is one of those songs that's going to be maybe I could see it being a little bit slower, a little bit more sweet, having a meaning of like desire to still want to be together. 35:08.351 --> 35:11.554 [SPEAKER_00]: Like a, like a, like a, please stay like you're saying, like, please don't change. 35:11.714 --> 35:14.757 [SPEAKER_00]: It reminds me of John Cook's, please don't change. 35:15.158 --> 35:19.482 [SPEAKER_00]: So yeah, like a, just hey, like, let's please still be together. 35:19.542 --> 35:25.288 [SPEAKER_00]: Like a desire to like, like 35:25.268 --> 35:43.564 [SPEAKER_01]: I also agree with you that it will probably be like a slower of a song, especially as we're like winding on this album Especially if one more night is kind of one of those like so white like just you know like a hype song And then we're winding it down and then the last track 14 is called into the sun 35:43.544 --> 35:49.578 [SPEAKER_01]: And just the title of this is giving me such bright, joyful imagery in my mind. 35:50.179 --> 35:59.581 [SPEAKER_01]: I feel like we are ending this album on such a positive high note of like, let's like take off and soar into the sun together. 35:59.762 --> 36:02.127 [SPEAKER_01]: Like going into the future, going into like, 36:02.107 --> 36:08.657 [SPEAKER_01]: this bright warm, happy place, um, I just like, and we're all going together. 36:08.697 --> 36:11.422 [SPEAKER_01]: That's, that's where where my head is at with it. 36:11.522 --> 36:21.718 [SPEAKER_00]: Yes, it's warm, it's bright, it's happy, yeah, into the sun, it makes me think of a song, follow the sun, by the Beatles. 36:21.778 --> 36:30.291 [SPEAKER_00]: I picture all of the BTS members on that beach and 36:30.271 --> 36:44.327 [SPEAKER_00]: and then yeah I could also see this being either it could potentially be like a more upbeat optimistic sounding song but I could also see it being a very like sweet endearing hopeful sounding song. 36:44.347 --> 36:44.989 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah. 36:45.205 --> 36:51.014 [SPEAKER_01]: can kind of be like stripped down a little bit too as like we wind down the album like a good close. 36:53.017 --> 37:08.141 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I mean, I guess we will find out how right or wrong we are about all the theories and predictions in like 17 days when the album comes out we're recording this on March 3rd as the track list just dropped today. 37:08.241 --> 37:08.682 [SPEAKER_01]: So 37:08.662 --> 37:19.098 [SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, we're so, so eager and so excited that we got this track list, it's been so like we waited three days into March more like, where is it? 37:19.218 --> 37:20.060 [SPEAKER_01]: And then it was here. 37:20.120 --> 37:24.006 [SPEAKER_00]: So these titles alone are fantastic. 37:24.226 --> 37:24.787 [SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah. 37:24.987 --> 37:28.212 [SPEAKER_00]: This album truly is going to rock the world. 37:28.793 --> 37:29.114 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 37:29.634 --> 37:31.437 [SPEAKER_00]: That's really interesting this. 37:31.618 --> 37:31.918 [SPEAKER_00]: Yeah. 37:32.067 --> 37:43.040 [SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, Ryan Teter saying that it's gonna shock the world and that it's gonna be like it's like the best music that he's ever worked on Yeah, I I believe it just by reading these titles at these titles. 37:43.120 --> 37:54.733 [SPEAKER_01]: I think are so interesting They're gonna dig us into so many different themes and genres and Just authentically BTS it seems like threw in through so 37:54.713 --> 38:09.373 [SPEAKER_01]: it makes us both incredibly incredibly excited about what is coming with this album and we're interested in what you all thought about it as well so let us know what you thought about the tracklist and the comments on Spotify. 38:09.473 --> 38:17.785 [SPEAKER_00]: Let us know what you think of what you think these some of these titles are going to be about what these with these songs are going to be like. 38:17.765
