my favourite track is yes or no i already know the words 😳 but honestly now that they have all released solo music you can see each of their personalities in their music and honestly i am beyond proud of them 🥰🫶🏼 So….. Closer To You made me dance Standing Next To You also made me dance Yes or No made me sing and gave me nostalgic feelings Please Don’t Change made me sing and realise how much BTS have helped me to love myself and have love for others Hate You nearly made me cry because i’ve been there (hating someone just so it’s easier to move on) Somebody made me relate and look back on experiences Too Sad To Dance brought me back to my contemporary dancing days because i used to dance to songs like this And finally Shot Glass Of Tears is perfect for autumn and just reflecting

God, I love the effect of music bringing us all together

In mainstream, JK has one of the best voices, not just in Korea, but the whole world. He’s right up there with those we all consider great in this era: Adele, bruno, Beyoncé, Gaga, and the like. His vocal acrobatics, stability, consistency, emotions, ranges, versatility are top tier. It’s funny to me watching his younger self talk about how much he’s influenced by beiber and wants to be as good as beiber, and I would chuckle, because even Bieber in his prime, does not match JK, in voice, in dance, in performance. With all that being said, Standing next to you is the cream of the crop, an incredible production that JK executed perfectly. The other stand out songs for me are hate you and shot glass full of tears. But standing next to you is something else. It will make an impact. And the music industry better recognize. Props to BTS, their solo endeavors, even in such early and learning phases were such quality. This is why they’re the best group in the world, they have the top vocalist, the top high voice, the top silver voice, the top baritone, top rappers, the top dancers, the top performers, the top lyricists, the top producer all in one group, crazy. Can’t wait till they are together in 2025 !

A GODDAM MUTHERFUCKING MASTERPIECE ❤️

shelby🖤

A GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING MASTERPIECE this album really is a masterpiece. i’ll be totally honest, i was slightly worried i wouldn’t love this album. i knew i’d like it, every member of bts is incapable of making bad music, but i knew jk leaned very pop and it’s just not typically my thing. in my humble opinion, pop music today is horrible in general. it all sounds exactly the same and lifeless. it’s made to be a tiktok hit and that’s it. this tho, this is different. jk managed to take every single good thing about pop and put it into this album. this is the best pop album i’ve heard potentially ever but definitely within the last decade. however while the song themselves are great, i think what really makes this album is jk’s voice. he had one of the best pop voice in history. he brings these songs to life. he has such control of his talent that he can make it do whatever needs to be done to make the songs sound good and he has the emotions to make sure it lands. i’m so incredibly proud of him for this. for taking the risk of a fully eng pop album knowing he’d get backlash for it for being “westernized” what people don’t realize is how hard it is to do what he did. he talked about his thought process in this interview (i’ll link it below) it’s like if justin bieber decide to make a korean album. it’s westernized when it’s jk but praised when it’s a white artist doing the same thing bc of xenophobia and racism. i’m so glad he decided to stick to his guns and make the art he wanted to make. criticism be damned. he has managed to bridge his kpop background with his love of western pop and make something great. k-army have been calling this album jk-pop and i think that’s the perfect word for it. also “hate you” is the best song on the album. you can just feel how raw and emotional he was when he sang it. “too sad to dance” and “shot glass of tears” are very close seconds tho. for “too sad to dance”the beat and melody is so catchy and the last little portion was so sweet. plus it had the callback to permission to dance. they won my heart. for “shot glass full of tears” it was also just so sad and emotional. during the pandemic i definitely drowned my sadness away so it was very relatable. kinda felt like the person he was singing about tbh - https://www.theatlantic.com/culture/archive/2023/11/bts-jungkook-solo-album-golden/675879/

too early to speak on billboard but the whole of golden debuted in the top 30 on Spotify Global Chart 🫡🫡 it debuted with 39 million filtered streams (and 42million unfiltered)

"walk that walk alone and talk that talk, you know"(too sad to dance / permission to dance) these references to bts songs are too much to handle

Tara

I think JK shines when he sings with emotion. Shot Glass of Tears and Hate You were my favorites! Standing Next to You showed off is incredible vocal ability and it's growing on me more and more! I think adding bridges to some of these songs would've elevated them even more. I'm happy to walk away with some songs I love because I wasn't vibing with 3D or Seven. Not bad for a first album!💜

Tanya G

A GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING MASTERPIECE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Such an amazing album. Love the diversity and complexity of it. Love JK's explanation and introduction to the album too. Absolutely Grammy worthy and meets all the ridiculous (unwritten) Grammy criteria. He deserves it. My top 3- memorized already and played nonstop on repeat! 1. Standing Next To You 2. Too Sad To Dance (I can't stop dancing to it though!)lol 3. Shot Glass of Tears

somebody is actually just jungkook. i too was looking for the ft. when it first came on. but nope, just him. he even sang it on his live!

Selina T

Agree with all this 👍🏼

Selina T

Yeah most of pop today is lifeless and horrible lol. But this was good and JKs voice really did carry many of these songs

Ellie_Luv

I am cracking up over Jordan's genuine disappointment over losing rock, paper, scissors and Jared so dryly responding "why would you choose scissors there?" 😂😂😂😂 Outside of Standing Next to You, my favorite is Yes or No! I clocked that Usher vibe too, and it's just so FUN 💜

claudia lecusascu ⁷

jordan at the end of shot glass of tears is the representation of the whole fandom

Suvi

My favorites are Standing Next To You and Somebody

SUCHWITA EP. 21 (Ft. JK) REACTION COMING TO ARMY GOLD IN A FEW HOURS. We’re working on edits now. Sneak peak: THE BEST EPISODE WE’VE EVER WATCHED.

Raquel

AGODDAMNMOTHERFUCKINGMASTERPIECE! 💜

Hana⁷

Ahhhhhhshhshdhd looking forward to the Suchwita Episode! I absolutely loved that. And the album, it is just incredible! Next to Suchwita, there's another Golden Treat for you. After releasing his album, JK came live on weverse and listened to the album with us...and the harmonies he just pulls out on the spot while sipping on iced coffee are INSANE!!! https://weverse.io/bts/live/0-128993548

charline

Shot glass of tears is my favorite song from the album. I know exactly how it made you feel Jordan, because it made me feel same. I have no words to explain it, it was a sad yet magical emotion. This album is a masterpiece and JK deserves every win that is coming his way, period!

Butterful

so excited!!!!💜💜💜

Liz Torres

Yes or No, that section when you mentioned Chris Brown. It actually reminded me of Usher's, "You Got It Bad," the moment I heard it. The song takes a different turn but tgat piece, oh my."

claudia lecusascu ⁷

listening to somebody at 5:30 am was really a shot of caffeine ngl i thought i missed a feature lol I cannot choose a favorite even after multiple listens so I’m just sticking with the og for now and go with the first born Seven 🫡 this album is a masterpiece, jungkook took the best decision when he decided to concentrate on his vocals and the experimentation can be heard in all the tracks, he said that he chose these songs specifically because they are love songs, (but to not read them as autobiographically). I am so proud of Jungkook for creating this timeless record and I cannot wait to see what more is in store for him and the boys of course

Laurie Brennan⁷

AGODDAMNMOTHERFUCKINGMASTERPIECE! 💜 I loved every, single song on the album. I think I have to go with Too Sad To Dance and Hate You as my favourites. Hate You has writing credits with Shawn Mendes and I am also a fan of his (a Toronto boy). I feel like one of the luckiest people on the planet having seen both JK and MJ in concert. So many MJ vibes and dance moves. Standing Next to You feels like a combination of Thriller, Smooth Criminal and a couple of other inspirations thrown in....but all JK. Thanks for reacting.

Maka Mars

Agotdamnfuckingmasterpiece !!!!!!

A FUCKING MASTERPIECE !!!!! LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOO

Deemah

GOLDEN IS A goddamnmotherfuckingmasterpiece.

princess

i finally found my somebody loversss, queen is already underrated

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

This is Jeon Jungkook and all props to the legendary Michael Jackson, may he rest in peace, but can we move the crown over just a little bit. This is Kookies’ time to shine and he’s shinin like a GOLDEN star. 💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫💫 This album flows beautifully from intense lust, to love, to soul crushing heartbreak 💔, to acceptance of the inevitability when it’s over and you have to move on. His voice is perfection, his English impeccable, his dance smooth and effortless. There’s no flaws, no skips, no B sides. I loved it from the first listen of SEVEN explicit and each track has just built on my admiration and appreciation for his artistry, talent, growth, and especially grace under pressure for stepping outside the box and boundaries that people may have wanted to put on him. I hope this album now lays that all to rest. I commend him for just going there. Hate You and Shot Glass of Tears are those tracks for me. Those lyrics are where I live. The MV’s are just 🤯🤯🤯🤯. I could watch him move endlessly. Jordan, I feel you babe. You need to autopsy that relationship, gut it open and eradicate the past. Toss your “bleep” button and both of you just tell us how it is. These are the very best reactions. You guys are the very best at what you do. I can’t wait for the deeper dive. 😵‍💫🤯🫰🏻💜🫰🏻💜🇨🇦

mettemirella

Hands down shot glass of tears is the Best song from the album for me. I love all the songs but shot glass of tears made me feel so many emotions at once.

Danica ⁷

This album is making my low iron deficiency worse. I’m not even sure how to explain my feelings! 3D, Yes Or No and Seven made me so happy but man oh man! Hate You and Shot Glass of Tears literally made me cry. It touches my core in an unexplainable feelings. Jeon Jungkook thank you so much for this GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING MASTERPIECE. You took me to a beautiful place that I’ve never been and you awaken some emotions in me that until now, I can’t explain. I’m like a big sister that is extremely proud of you. BORAHAE 💜

Emily Sanchez

Took me like three times on repeat to figure out it was jk singing somebody. Haha I just couldn’t believe it was his voice. But of course he just likes to surprise us with a Golden Voice for sure !!! I love standing next to you, yes or no, somebody, shot glass of tears. The rest are great but this just hit the spot for me.

princess

omg i hope yall get to go for the release party, people think JK might show up to the party, who knows??!!!! that man is so obsessed with army I wont be surprised if he showed up

chantal bavaud

Cant wait for the suchwita episode. There is soooooo much jk content coming your way.. jimmy fallon, dance choreo mv, jk on today and his concert on the 20th and who knows what else. Hopefully it can be part of your november videos

viperine

Somebody, SNTY, and Hate You were my faves but now it's SNTY, Closer To You, Shotglass of Tears.. I'm sure it'll change. Whole album is an obsession currently. Even played in my dreams last night 😂🫶🏻

Dani Ellison

Goddamn Motherfucking Masterpiece

Alana W.

I really loved your reaction J&J. Agree this album is a masterfully crafted track list of hits. It doesn’t always read linearly, but I do think there’s a clear front half of flirtation and falling in love, followed by heartbreak sad boy anthems. Jungkook mentioned he chose love songs because it’s a universal emotion that anyone can relate to and find comfort in. There’s definitely a song for everyone on here but even more importantly for me, this album is the essence of Jungkook. Many shades come through, but they’re all golden. 🥹 Over the years we’ve watched Jungkook explore his musical identity in and outside of BTS: writing for their albums, uploading SoundCloud covers, 3-hour long noraebang sessions on Weverse, etc. We’ve gotten to know what music inspires him and what he gravitates towards. Let me tell you, this album perfectly reflects his passion and personal tastes. His fingerprints are all over it, and you can tell he lovingly curated a selection of songs that would represent him while also allowing him to experiment with new things and showcase his undeniable star power. This album is pop magic. It leaves me wanting more and I keep asking myself what will he do next??? Jungkook’s talent is boundless, and I’m so so proud of him! (Sorry for the novel, your comment section seemed like the best place to verbally process everything I’ve felt for the last two days 😂😂)

Silvia

Makes sense that you heard Justin Bieber in Hate you somehow because Shawn Mendes is credited as a songwriter on it and he grew up on JB. I can’t choose a favorite, maybe someday, but not today! Jungkook was very smart in choosing these tracks, I’m sure he was bombarded with songs to include, but it feels like they could all have been tittle tracks. He really said, let me end billboard, and I hope he does. Stream the shit of our Golden, army!

Daphne Schaffer

Did you notice? The Wings from Black Swan, DNA, FIRE, After Glow from SEVEN, Left and Right with Charlie Puth, Rain... 3D, so many references, The writer knows BTS to put all this into the lyrics. JK with ARMY tatooed... standing next to ARMY it will stand the test of time/2025

Alana W.

Well said, Cheryl 🥰

Silvia

I heard the Shawn vibes right away, and no wonder they mentioned JB! Did you see poor Shawn tagged a fan account on Instagram thinking it was the official JK big hit page? Someone tell the poor guy! 😜

IfraH

Shot glass of tears, Hate You, Somebody, Standing next to you and Yes or No are my favourite songs on this album so far

Vaminssi Port⁷

A GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING MASTERPIECE! It was indeed a Rollercoaster of an album! The EDM style songs felt like being on a nightclub underwater. As much as I loved Standing next to you, I'm usually not a fan of that 80's vibe, so I'd have to say that my Top 3 are: 1. Hate You 2. Too sad to dance 3. Shot glass of tears Which in conclusion reaffirms that I'm a sucker for sad and heartbreaking songs hahaha Amazing reaction as always J & J. Keep up the good work and keep the flood coming!💦🌧☔️ Borahae! 💜💖😊

Daphne Schaffer

Yes/No written by non other than Ed Shearan... and I love him and then Too Sad to Dance by David Stewart. I love this 2 songs. This is probably one of my favorites off the album. You guys need to watch him on Suchwita with Suga... he did a second show with him to day... he said the front part of the album was love songs, the songs towards the end are sad real feelings. He also recording a song each day taking him like 4 hours a day to record... that is amazing especially because he picked out the songs each night and learned them to record the next day.

Angel

Hate you and Somebody are stuck in my head, very well executed

Silvia

I was hoping for Jordan to win this one 🪨📄✂️ come on! You had already listened to Standing next to you twice!

Kecia ⁷

This album is pop perfection! Perfection! It's too soon for me to know my favorites songs but the ones that hit me first are Closer to You, Yes or No, and Too Sad to Dance.

-Mac-

Hold spot. I have Korean Homework and some songs to practice for choir before I can stay put and listen all the way through. HOWEVER, this /entire/ album is indeed, AGoddamedMuthahFuckin'Masterpiece! Also too, don't call out y'r Auntie like that. Your Father needs to hear Standing Next to You [the entire album, really], because iIrc, we are close in age, and I expect he'll love it! OK, homework time, back later!

Juliana Krampf

This album is perfect! Jungkook is a master at using his voice and is able to change his voice to work with any song vibe! I truly love every song but my favorites are Standing Next To You, Yes or No, and Hate You.

Neha

A GODDAMN MUTHAFUCKIN MASTERPIECE.

Ingrid Adela Khan

Hey helloooooo... how are you guys doing? Just wanted to say that "Too sad to dance" totally reminded me of Justin Bieber´s song "Love yourself". Listen to the song and then lemme know what you think. It´s kinda the same vibe. Very cute song and beautiful song. s2 Loved the reaction as usual. Ingrid

Laurie Brennan⁷

Oh no...no I didn't see that. There are so many fake accounts it's hard to keep them all straight.....even fake "authenticated" check marks on accounts.

Donita Polk

Wait, there really is a listening party ... in LA?? Who, Where, When???

Donita Polk

No favorite just yet, but leaning toward, SNTY, Somebody, and Shot Glass of Tears; no particular order.

hannah

i feel so overwhelmed and emotional with this album release, we all know jungkook's capabilities and the pure talent that he has but to see this in a completed album with the various genres he promised is so incredible. jungkook is still so young and has had the most immense pressure on him throughout his whole career as a vital part of bangtan and in his solo work too. even though I am quite a bit younger than him the sense of pride I have in him is immeasurable. he puts his absolute soul into anything and everything he does and this shines through in the work he is releasing and the insane performances and records he continues to break and set. I've watched and listened to standing next to you multiple times over the past 48 hours and the last few times, even though it isn't an emotional song, I have become teary eyed. I can't quite put my finger on why but I think it's just this overwhelming sense of pride, the song is absolutely incredible and I also think maybe subconsciously there is a little tinge of sadness in my emotions that this is the last 'first' solo project release. I can't wait for you to sit down and watch the newest suchwita episode with jungkook, yoongi as always creates such a safe, comfortable space to have such meaningful conversations with his little brother and its so clear to see the bond these boys have just through the simplest of gestures, conversations or advice given, they care so deeply for one another and continue to be each others biggest supporters🤍

leat

at first listen shot glass of tears was my favorite after standing next to you. and YES Jared i also think it sounded like an Adele song. so good. but my favorite keeps changing, i love closer to you, something and hate you. i love them all so much. i can listen to this album with no skips for ages without getting bored.

Silvia

They’re doing an album release party at a club on 11/10. I think it is organized by Geffen but it says that JK will not be there. There’s a waitlist for tickets.

princess

OMG THIS LIVE PERFORMANCE IS SO INSANE

Kay

Jungkook is an artist that you find once in a blue moon. He is beyond talented

G-hope⁷

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece.

Jordyn

Y'all making connections to songs takes me out. It's so relatable but also hilarious because is that how I look when I'm going crazy trying to recall a song? 💀😂. Speaking of songs, Too sad to Dance gives me Love Yourself by JB vibes.

Jordyn

Man. I can't properly put to words how I'm feeling. One thing I can say though is proud. I am so proud of Jk. Golden is amazing. He took the best of the past and encoded it into something new, something him. I love the album. I love Jk. I'm just so proud. Our Golden Maknae 🥹💜 Also, it's really hard to name favorites so soon but as of now, my picks are Standing Next to You and Yes or No. Even now I'm hesitating because Hate You, Shot Glass of Tears, Seven, 3D..... so good omg.

Kim Myers

SNTY & Somebody are my top 2, with Hate You a solid 3rd!!

Iris

I thought so too!!!!!

Jordyn

ITS SO GOOD

-Mac-

Hi again 2J, So, how /does/ one even begin to speak about the complete excellence that is GOLDEN? I don't know if they wrote these tracks /hoping/ for JK, or they just had them hanging around, and they serendipitously fit JK's [and ARMY's] sensibilities, but the writers and producers understood the assignment. For each song to say something, to fit a narrative and also stand alone as just feel good music for vibing, or something we listen to, or sing along with at the top of our lungs for comfort, is a skill not many posses. Then to have /the/ Jeon Jeong-guk, the Prince of Pop, bless it with his vocals? JK took decent tracks and turned them into top-tier songs, 10 times over. Out of all the new to us tracks, there isn't a single one I'd dare to even /consider/ skipping... /ever/. If there is such a thing as a 'favourite' song from this album, It's "Hate You". Jungkook's vocals are utter perfection. His voice crawled right into my chest. I actually didn't even know what the heck he said until listen three when I had lyrics up, because his voice hit the ASMR sweet-spot and I couldn't brain. Shot Glass of Tears and Too Sad to Dance are tied for second place. Hate You is perfection, but these two are vulnerability and pain on a different level. The punchline of Too Sad to Dance? The song goes from sad to a beautiful and poignant lesson. Kudos to David Stewart on producing a great song. We can't leave Shot Glass of Tears hanging though, because the pain that JK manages to evoke with his voice with those opening lyrics. Both of these tracks remind me of when JK covered Harry Styles' Falling. The emotion he projects into these songs leaves you a bit breathless with the pain he evokes. JK is so damn good at this. OK, doubling back to Standing Next to You... PARLIAMENT and Michael Jackson had a love child. This is the sort of song my 12-year-old-self would have sat around with my cassette player while glued to the radio so I could put on my own mixtape. It's what we'd be skating to at the roller rink [you called /that/ Jordan!]. Children would all learn the dance moves and the mock fight; recess would be chaos until it could be re-produced perfectly. I need to mention Please Don't Change, because I feel, strongly, that JK chose this song as a message to ARMY. Please don't change, he loves us just the way we are. It's right up there with Standing Next to you, He will testify to this love, it's in our DNA [I love that lyric] he we stay next to us, and wants us to stay next to him. These songs, while not written /by/ him were clearly perfect for JK and ARMY's mutual lovefest. OK, if Somebody was track 10, then I'd have wanted it to hit harder, but seriously. Hate You followed by Too Sad and Shot Glass would have had all of us reaching for our own drinks and sobbing our hearts out, we'd never get to the end of the album, so I think the track order/flow is perfect. I really like Closer to You and Yes or No as well, but this essay is long enough. Peace, The Essay-writing Auntie, -Mac-

ANW!

This Whole Album is the Galactic Album of all time!!! Every song and each nook and cranny of each song is timeless. I am deeply moved and took me back to my fear of dying the love of my life through the song Shot glass full of tears. I AM SEVERELY AND EUPHORICALLY IN LOVE WITH JEON JUNGKOOK'S GOLDEN ALBUM !!!

Sabrina K

Mannn he killed it. I loved almost all the songs can't pick a fav, Standing next to you omg the MJ vibes UGH so good and Somebody I did not recognize his voice at first he def did something to it at first hahahahah everyone had the same reaction.

Purplehaze⁷

Standing next to you is a Goddamn motherfucking masterpiece! ❤️‍🔥🕺🔥🕺❤️‍🔥🕺🔥

Lynn ⁷

A GODDAMN MOFO-KING MASTERPIECE! 🤣🤣🤣 But I have to say when I listen to each track back-to-back, it sounds to me like the end-pitch level of a song, starts the same on the first-pitch of the next track. I could be delusional LOL but damnnn I havent stopped listening to the whole album since its release!! Thank you again for your reactions, throwbacks, laughter as always! Borahae Mr. J (Smooth) Jackson and J&J 💜🙏🏻💜

Cheryl ⁷ Lambert

Write your essays and keep them long. I knew Hate You would be that song from the teaser. Love this 💫💛🫂💛💫

LizP⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷⁷

This album is really growing on me. I've always loved 3D from the second I heard it but I'm ngl only the alternative version (no Jack) Standing Next To You, Somebody, and Yes or No soon follow. I wish JK continued success with this album and proves Yoongi's predictions to come true!!! I'm so glad you guys loved the album, thank you for the reaction!!!! Love you guys 💜🫶💜🫶

LaNita Starr⁷

Ok haha..the Billy Madison skit... haha I'm dead! ( Hiney 🤭) GodDayumnMotherFuckingMasteriece!! Yaaaaas!! I knew you would not give up on that song.lol Ursher baby. All that SOUL, just pured out in each song. So Raw and genius and beautiful! Michael mother trucking Jackson! I had Bad feels and Smooth Criminal feels either the Side Sway especially!! I rollerskated to that song hahaha. The switch in genras!! Sooo good! He fell in love in tracks 1-6...Hate You is the beginning of the break up 😭 Your faces were soo pure through the breakup songs. Such a good reaction. I'm going to need you to go deep please. I feel like I was left high and not so dry. 🤭 Catch y'all soon! 💜💜💜 Borahae 💜💜💜💜

Hana⁷

Hey guys! The song you asked for earlier that you said had a bit of a standing next to you vibe (i don't remember the time stamp) is Telepathy from their BE album :) 2!3! is on Wings and an absolutely beautiful song! About the ending of the episode... The most beautiful moment in life was released in 2015, so 2025 is the 10 year anniversary. We know they're planning something special for it...it's going to be bautiful. Armys who experienced that era can relive that time, and armys who haven't been around for that (like me) can make their own most beautiful moments in 2025 with this. We don't know yet what exactly they have planned, but something is definitely coming. I love how you emphasised that you have never felt more Army than during this video. There will come more times like this. The connection we feel to the members just keeps on growing, and it is beautiful to know that they feel the same way about us. And like JK said...we were his very first tattoo in 2019. Tattoos weren't really accepted in the idol industry then (and still aren't gladly seen on screen), so him getting our name tattooed in a very visible place like that means a lot.

JenR

Your reactions to Standing Next To You is basically how I felt too. So I am certain you will love the IHeartRadio live performance JK did of it because I think it's the best solo performance he's ever done. Rockstar meets pop star with that extra unique JK flavour. I can't wait to see you witness it for yourselves. This is the next Golden Era for JK that's for sure.

JenR

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece

When I say I've been on a wild ride with this album...It gets better each time you listen to it! Just like all BTS related music honestly. I can't pick a favourite so I've resorted to listing my top songs as follows: Bias line: Shot Glass of Tears, Yes or No, Too Sad To Dance Bias wrecker: Standing Next To You (because man the choreography and the live performance have WRECKED ME)

Ana Gonçalves

GODDAMNMOTHERFUCKINGMASTERPIECE 💜

Amiii

OMG…I LIIIIIVEEE for Shot Glass of Tears and Standing Next to You. I‘ve also heard Yes or No an unhealthy amount of times. It puts me in a special light mood. After listening to the album, I noticed that the theme of the entire album is love and that it is cohesive. He sings about different feelings of love and relationship statuses. I interpreted it as the story of a relationship that starts with the desire to see someone in 3D. It‘s about about getting closer, falling in love and loving the person forever, being always on their side - “Standing in the fire next to you“. After that it takes a rather sad turn with a breakup, growing up and learning that you don't need anyone to dance with. It ends on a bittersweet note, a shot glass full of tears. Nostalgic sounds and genre influences are very present throughout the album. It reminds me of our biggest pop stars, for example MJ, JT and JB.

ANW!

"Yes or No" song of Jungkook reminded me of Jordan Knight's (New Kids on the Block/ NKOTB) vocals in their song "Single" collab with Neo. I remember 2021 American Music Awards when NKOTB were on stage singing and BTS were dancing with NKOTB on the sidelines, plus it was reported that BTS thanked NKOTB for paving the way of boy bands in the US (in the world) and I saw the picture with BTS & NKOTB together backstage. Golden album will no doubt be #1 in any and every music listings in the world heck in every Multiverse! Thank you Jared and Jordan for all that you do for BTS.

I’m excited to watch this! I’ve started it and saw your confusion about my word for Golden : Hotdog! I had many other words I would have used first but my fellow ARMy had already written them and I wanted to contribute a new word. “Hotdog!” Is an idiom/expression that means “wow! Incredible!” I think it was used in the early 1900s. There was this older gentleman that used to say it in our neighborhood and my siblings and I adopted it because it was fun/different. I googled it and the Cambridge dictionary defines it as : “Meaning of hot dog! in English hot dog! idiom US informal something that you say when you are very pleased about something: You won your race? Hot dog!” Haha- now you can be as cool as that older gentleman in my old neighborhood and say “Well hot dog!” When something is awesome 😎

Yes or No, my third favorite song. It's giving me Usher's Confession Pt II cadences. That was my song and still is from back in the day & that's why 'Yes or No' is growing on me at rapid speed. Standing Next to You, Hate You & Shot Glass of Tears are still at the top of my list. These songs are definitely relatable, especially the last 4 new tracks. This album is a flow of emotions that hits on every cylinder & is non-ending. JK, what planet did you come from????? This album is OUT OF THIS WORLD IMMACULATE & PRICELESS!!!!

Dirho

Those are my favorites so far too! Oh, the seven nightfall remix is another favorite. I’m sure the others will rise up as I listen more.

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece! 💜🔥💜🔥

I think I did like that one too but I'm all "Sevened" out lol. I can't wait to hear what the remixes of SNTY are gonna sound like!!

Kia

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece

Solny

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece. Also, Hate You and Shot Glass of Tears are constantly battling for my favourite spot.

Faith

A goddamn motherfucking masterpiece. At the moment Hate You is my favourite because of the song arrangement and how the emotion of the song is expressed by JK's voice.

I love this CD sooooo much, I feel like it has a song for every emotional occasion. Let me tell you I absolutely loved Somebody, it one of my fav.

You would be surprised how many BTS bops don't get played on the radio. First big hit has to outsource that song for approval to radio stations. If a DJ is desperate they can play it illegally by download. Not All BTS tracks are allowed play from Big Hit. "Standing next to you" I assume is approved since it is a title track. I'll say it again, western music cannot make money off of BTS. Only popularity from the fans. Streaming is our weapon! Put it on a playlist and let it rip, JK deserves it! 'SNTY' is definite favorite... I mean it's just NASTY! 'Somebody' I like the sound of. 'Shot Glass' is relatable.

So much fun to listen to the album again with you guys! I think you might need to do a car test devoted to the whole album!

I am just now catching up on all of these videos, and this one was great. I have been busy with work and finishing up my bachelor's, but I always fit in time to see the twins' reactions. And, yes, SNTY is the best mother fucking song out there!!!

Also for me shot glass full of tears, that song literally put me in tears. The lyrics “Tell me, am I ever gonna feel again?, Tell me, am I ever gonna heal again?, Got a shot glass full of tears, Drink, drink, drink, say, "Cheers" made me cry because of how relatable and raw they were. To those who have struggled and dealt with unbearable pain alone, cried alone, screamed alone, and even grieved alone all know what it is like to have to suck all that back in. Everything you just let out, all the tears, is now having to be sucked right back in because there's no one else around to share it with or take it away. That is what I related to the most in the song.

Shot Glass of Tears is my faaaaaaaaaaavorite song on this album.

It’s funny that some of the army mentioned hooligan and speaking from the future Jungkook just dropped that song or wrote it

What I love about this album is it tells the story of love start to finish, from looking for lt (dating/playing the field), to that initial honeymoon phase, to dealing with the hard times, to breaking up, to trying to move on, and then just allowing yourself to feel sad about the loss. This album actually helped me process some past things I needed to work through just by listening to it, really listening to it, start to finish. And...A goddamn mother-fucking masterpiece 💜
