The Planet's BTS Fan Club

[Old Cat Lady]

I've had a chance to listen to Happy a few times and I love it so much. I think it's my favorite of all the albums. Will definitely be the one I listen to the most anyway (I really love RPWP and D-Day too but those require more of the right mindset whereas I can see listening to Happy any time).

 

I was a little nervous when "I'll Be There" came out but to me, it's the weakest song of the album. None of them are skips, but Another Level is incredible and I could (and have) listen to Running Wild all day. I think he sings the chorus in falsetto throughout but I hope when he performs live that he really belts one of them. "I Will Come To You" has that sentimentality that we know and love from Jin.

This is a great article.  This guy has a free Substack page and has written a lot of articles relevant to us (you can click on a 'sacrifice of suga'' article fromm August that is good -)

I love his description of PDogg -  read it.

Totally unacceptable that this is not available on Weverse for a replay!!!!  I really want to see it -  Will they show tomorrows show live????

 

Some reviews/articles about the album release.

 

For the Naver review

As expected, his live performance sounds incredible. I want to see this so badly. I feel stupid. For some reason it didn't occur to me that i could probably purchase it to view on Weverse

I'm sure DJ Jino will have this on his Patreon. When he doesn't have to dance, he consistently sounds even better than the studio version. The song has a whole different vibe when Jin sings it vs. when Chris sings it

 

 

 

ETA: OMG! Coldplay left a comment on this thread

Live is always so much better then the recorded version. Something you would have never heard me say like six years ago, cause I hated how far off most western artists sounded from their recorded versions.

 

No, don't feel stupid💜....and you didn't have to purchase it, just needed to catch the livestream at the right time, which is not the best for your side of the globe (if I'm not mistaken). But it also says under the ended live stream that it will be uploaded on bts weverse at a later date.....so, wait and see I guess (and maybe pray🙏😅).

Yes. It starts at 5pm Korean time, I think? 

 

And Another Level sounds completely different live!

It was free. I watched it at the ungodly hour of 5am this morning

Livestreaming info for Jin's HAPPY Special Stage. It's streamed on Weverse itself. Free.

I heard this and thought it was the most hauntingly beautiful and soulful of the tracks. Now I'm watching Asian Entertainment and she says this is about video gaming

II don't know how you'd think this is about gaming.  Yes, he does have a love affair with video games but... let's just go with hauntingly beautiful.  II read that Weverse will show replays of the live (and, wow, was I disappointed it said "live has ended").  I guess tomorrows show will start at 11 pm tonight my time.  That's 5pm in Seoul.  It's interesting that with this sort of fan event, one of the shows (the Sunday one) starts two hours earlier.  I wonder if that's because they want any students be able to get home and get sleep before a school day.

 

Don't know if I'll start it that late.  I'll see if I'm still awake.  And see if Weverse sends a notification.  Jin's voice has matured and he actually has more range.  Love the whole album.
