As a 43 years old metalhead from Finland who fell for Bts rabbithole 4 years ago, I allways appreciate people with metal background to go and explore new music. My road from Amaranthe, Children of bodom or Amorphis etc to Bts was a drastic fall, lol. Ive faced so much elitism with my metal friends after getting into Bts that people like you who can listen a so called pop band with unprejudiced mind is such a lovely to see. Ive never minded if people dont love the song, as long as they are respectful and willing to see that there might be talent in music that isnt their style still. Great work guys, keep going! A big part of Bts is their live shows, MMA 2019 is a great example, all tho it is a long one. 38 minutes for one band in an award show 👀

[@TournamentPodcast]

I've always enjoyed all types of music but Static X, young Metallica, Pantera, Korn are my go to's. I've been pleasantly surprised by BTS so far. Great beats and a smooth lyrical flow. I've heard from quite a few people that BTS knocks it out of the park with their live performances so we'll def have to check those our as well. Thank you for watching and commenting.

[@crystalsnow1138]

The girl at the beginning of the video is the choreographer of this song. Her name is Sienna Lalau and she was only 19 when she choreographed this song. The tattoo on V's face said the shadow like me, but it was fake. BTS have said ON is their hardest choreo to date and this is the first song they want to perform when they are able to perform in front of their fans again. Because this song came out right when covid started closing everything. It's J-Hope not Suga that helps the others with the choreography, but they have plenty of choreographers who they work with including their main choreographer Son Sung Deuk who has been with them since the beginning. This mv was filmed in Los Angeles and many BTS fans have gone to this exact location to recreate the dance. If you are interested there is another music video for ON that's completely different than this one. This one is more dance focused and the official music video is more storyline focused. BTS also performed this song at Grand Central Station in New York when they appeared on the Jimmy Fallon's show last year. They filmed in the middle of the night when no one was there.

[@TournamentPodcast]

Thank you so much for all the info. I'm not only enjoying the music but I'm also trying to learn about the band and all the members. I really appreciate you taking the time to watch and leave such a thoughtful comment.

[@tingtingboll]

49 year old metalhead here 🙋 I slipped into the BTS rabbit hole 3 years ago and haven't tried to get out lol. BTS has such a huge discography, I can find a BTS song for every mood. My playlist goes from 'Head like a hole' to Mic Drop 🤣

[@TournamentPodcast]

Well, we're in the exact same situation... 49 and metalheads. 😀 I've quickly discovered that these guys LITERALLY have music for every mood. Funny enough, I was just listening to Trent Reznor a few weeks back. 😂

[@tingtingboll]

@@TournamentPodcast You have excellent taste in music! My guess is that you guys will appreciate BTS more and more as you get familiar with their work. They're amazing performers as well. I've been to many concerts in my life but BTS is hands down the best concert I have ever been a part of. I'm enjoying the reactions, keep it up 💜

[@terifullmer163]

I'm 56 years old. My daughter is in Korea teaching English and has been studying Korean for a few years now. I started learning the language (trying... It's so hard!) almost a year ago. I'm going to visit her in September!! So excited. She has been army for quite a while now and I've been going down the BTS rabbit hole for about 4 months. Hardcore for the last 2 😁. The are incredible and beyond compare in my opinion. My tastes lean more toward Jackson Browne and Cat Steven's, but I listen to BTS every morning when I work out and on my way to work. They are phenomenal people! Thanks for making me feel not so old and out of place. I love your mom!! 😁😁😁💜💜💜💜

[@TournamentPodcast]

Thank you so much for watching and the wonderful comment. I'm happy you'll get to visit your daughter soon! It's funny how there are so many people with much different musical tastes in their past but that love BTS now. The only thing I can think to compare their impact to is The Beatles. P.S. I'll tell my mom she has another fan. Maybe we'll try to get her on the show one of these days 😃

They way you are able to identify Jimin so easily leads me to believe your mom may be a Jimin “bias” meaning that he is her favorite. 😆

J Hope's the lead on helping the members w/ choreo (he's also one of the rappers). Suga is one of the main rappers. great job educating yourselves fellas, much appreciate and respect to your interests in being thorough:)

@@TournamentPodcast The Choreo for this video was done by the first lady you see in the video - she is 19 years old and leads a group call The Lab.

FYI: EVERY one of their songs is a 10! You can't rank them without knowing the lyrics; they are a huge part of who BTS is. 💜⟭⟬🅐🅡🅜🅨⟬⟭💜💪🏻

Thank you for watching all our videos, and all the comments. I agree, we were missing out without knowing the lyrics. Beginning with Ep4 we will be researching all Korean lyric songs beforehand as well as making sure we have captions turned on. 😀💜

[@pamelajbarber4819]

I’m loving most of this but it’s really frustrating that you’re talking all the way over it and I don’t understand how you can rank a song if you don’t have lyrics or even the flow of the song. Your voices are coming in way over the music. You have missed so much. I really hope you go back and do this whole project again with a little more attention to what’s going on. We don’t need to hear you talk until the end. No disrespect, just wanting to give you a slant from an avid Army.

[@mistym1752]

[@jenniferparker4237]

This video was filmed at the Sepulveda Dam in LA; the UCLA Marching Band, Drumline, and Jazz Ensemble provided the instrumentals with the Singers of Soul gospel choir on background vocals; the dancers are from the Lab dance company; & finally the young lady center in the opening shot is the choreographer for this song (she has choreographed a lot of KPop songs for many groups and when this was recorded she was only 18 years old!l

[@crystalsnow1138]

I also want to mention that BTS recently covered Puff Daddy and Faith Evan's I'll Be Missing You which came out in the 90's in memory of the Notorious B.I.G. It's on BBC Radio 1's youtube channel if you want to check it out, they really did a beautiful job with it. Sting who wrote Every Breath You Take from which I'll Be Missing you was sampled from even retweeted their performance. I'm sure you have plenty of recommendations so there's no rush. BTS also covered Coldplay's Fix You back in February for their MTV Unplugged performance and even Coldplay said their cover was beautiful. And in the next few months there is a Coldplay/BTS collab coming out called My Universe.

[@TournamentPodcast]

WOW! That's interesting. I love I'll Be Missing You be Puff and Faith!! I'll definitely check that out. Haha... my mom mentioned we should check out Coldplay's cover as well. Great minds think alike! 😉

[@melwigs]

I know a lot of people are nagging you about the captions but I’m just gonna hammer that home here😂 Thanks for this guys💜

[@TournamentPodcast]

Hahaha. You are certainly correct, people are REALLY pushing us to turn on captions. 😂 I promise we'll have them turned on starting with Ep4. 💜 Honestly we should have had them on for Ep2 and Ep3 but we're learning as we go. Thank you for watching... and reminding us to turn captions on. 😀

[@charityhooper2377]

I'm so happy you guys are watching BTS! I only have two request... Could you pause when you talk so you don't miss stuff and could you please turn on the captions? The only reason I ask is because they write a lot of their lyrics and that shows more of their talent and I would really love for you to know the extent of their talent beyond just singing and dancing. If you had the captions on you would have even had more love for the song.

[@reneezemlock7880]

I really think you'd appreciate this song even more if you had the subtitles on. They are extremely poetic and poignant. The album this is off of, "Map of the Soul 7" is a concept album from beginning to end based on Carl Jung's philosophy of the concept of a person being comprised of three aspects, "Persona", "Shadow", and "Ego".

[@TournamentPodcast]

Absolutely. Starting with Ep4 we have captions are when needed, and we're also researching the lyrics before we watch the video. We try to improve a little bit with each video. Not sure I'll ever be able to completely grasp the depth of their song meanings but I'm already getting much better. Their definitely complex and thoughtful. 💜😀

[@OGDimple]

Guys! I just watched your BTS Ranking vids, Eps. 1 & 2. Loved them. Love how you guys are enjoying your journey down the BTS rabbit hole. Please, please, please! Don't talk so much, over the video! A comment, here and there is fine but please don't hold an entire conversation without pausing the video. You are missing so much when you're talking right through the transitions, for example, Jung Kook's solo. and the dance battle, right after Jimin throws the camera, skyward. You talked right through them andI know you didn't get the full effect and beauty of those " Wow", moments. I had to stop, right in the middle of watching Ep. 3, just to type this to you! Also, BTS's viewer demographics are not just younger teens. Don't feel out of place. Over 25% are an older crowd, over 30. I'm a 61 yr. old ARMY and feel blessed to be alive to witness BTS bring the world together with their music, during these very trying times! You also need to watch, Spring Day for a slower song, Black Swan and Blood Sweat and Tears for darker songs. Of course, you also need to watch their two other English language songs, Butter and Permission to Dance. Don't forget to turn on captions. Okay, back to Episode 3, now! Thank you for your very entertaining reactions!

[@TournamentPodcast]

Haha. Thank you so much for the nice comment. Starting with Ep4 we will no longer talk over the videos. 😀 Actually we just recorded our reactions to I'll Be Missing You and Butter... as well as Black Swan. 💜

They have an outside choreographer, but among the group members, Jimin was a dance major in college, and J-Hope is the other main dance line leader.

[@skye9541]

[@junkydoodles1264]

Thanks for reacting to ON Kinetic Manifesto 😊 The rankings are okay, no worries. As with the different genres that they do, of course, there will be different types of people listening so of course there would be different tastes as well. People who love dancing would gush over this, but with heavy metal fans, youd have a different reactions of course. You are also not just heavy metal fans, you are men my age (I think) so maybe impact would be of how much you enjoy listening to the song, more of than the "visual". 😊👍Just enjoy what you enjoy! 👍

[@TournamentPodcast]

Much appreciated! I'll be 50 next month, and I, along with my brothers, enjoy all types of music. However we are partial to the hard rock/heavy metal genres. We're having fun with this series so we'll keep on enjoying the music! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@junkydoodles1264]

A filmmaker named Alex also does BTS reaction vids. On his end, he is more focused on the videos and visuals sometimes cool dance breaks would get lost on him hehe but its still good content because personally I enjoy his technical comments and fascination with the videos and their behind the scenes. One guy's reaction vids are more focused on their fashions. On you guys, I love that you are trying this path and so far liking it. I enjoy the men's perspective and comments and that you also have good ears for music. So yeah, different people, different perspectives and focus but really enjoying BTS. Try also their Run BTS vids and funny vids if you are interested in their personalities outside of the music. Im actually curious if your mom has watched Run BTS videos, if not, i think she will enjoy them. Brightens up my day everytime. 😁💜

[@TournamentPodcast]

@@junkydoodles1264 I appreciate you bringing up that point. We definitely want to know the lyrics as well as the story behind the video, but we are more focused on the beat and flow of the lyrics for this series. Also, I'll ask my mom if she's watched the Run BTS vids but I'm fairly certain she has 😃. I'd be shocked if there's anything BTS that she hasn't seen. Thanks again for your advice and support.

I am 48 year Mom from Malaysia. I don't really listened to songs. My children love to watch songs on youtube. I started to pay attention to BTS seriously a few months ago when I heard Black Swan on youtube. I saw the lyric, one of the of word is "thang". I was wondering what the word was so I googled the word. So I paid attention to the song and the lyric. The song really moved me. I am hooked with BTS since then. Since then, whenever my eldest daughther asked me what I am busy at, I told her that I am busy studying BTS and Jimin.🤣🤣🤣

[@tracydowd4013]

Main Choreographer is Son Sung-deuk - been with them from the beginning 2013. J Hope is the Dance Leader and Main Dancer, Jimin is the other Main Dancer. Jungkook is the Main singer and at the center of most of their choreography, RM is the Group Leader, and Main Rapper. They have outgrown their K Pop category, you are correct. They are International Performance Artists. Also, the lyrics to this song are meaningful and makes the song even better. The main writers for this group are RM, Suga, and J Hope, and they also do production and composition, since their beginnings pre-debut, 2012. All the members have contributed songwriting for BTS. I personally don't like your numbers system, and I don't think you can officially rank this one with out knowing the lyrics. Like I said, please check out the lyrics then give it a fair ranking, because that is what sets them apart. This song also has another video that tells a story. ON MV - kzbin.info/www/bejne/o4G5dXqFi8-Fh5I There is a commentary video on this Song and what went into the making of it. I will link it below.

Nice reaction! I‘m a metal fan myself and I had danced to Hip Hop, but I also love BTS. I discovered them 2016 due to my dancing, but I stayed because of their versatile music, deep lyrics and good messages, humor and crackhead behavior, humble personalities and their live performances. I especially love their b-sides and their more rap heavy, jazzy or R’nB-ish songs. There are more of us metalheads in the fandom as some people would expect but also many older fans. I‘m definitely not a teen anymore 😉 I would like to hear your opinion on their other songs. I don’t know where to start, they have many good songs and a HUGE discography 😅 maybe you could react to Butter, Not Today or Fake Love. Please turn on the CC, because BTS is known for their great lyricism in their korean songs. I hope you can also react to their live performances, for example their Butter performance on Jimmy Fallon or their MMA 2019 performance (a loooong one, but one of the best live performance I‘ve ever seen).

[@Vlc506]

You cannot judge K-pop based solely on the song as K-pop is a whole package that includes, music, choreography (or performance), costumes, makeup, and video production. Plus with BTS, Lyrics are also important as they write/produce a lot of their own stuff and deal with many important subjects. You must always turn on CC or check out the lyrics separately, then judge the song. You also need to know that some of their songs/videos having a storyline so you may not understand what’s going on if you watch them out of order or don’t look for explanation videos after watching them. They have a whole BTS Universe containing multiple platforms so if you don’t follow everything it can get pretty hard to follow without explanations. Just watch their Blood, Sweat and Tears video to see what I mean, then look for explanation video and it will all fall into place. It’s very complex and intellectual. Good luck!

You all are so humorous!! I’m curious to see where you go from here so I’m subscribing!!

It was filmed in Los Angeles

Also check out the official video of this song. Talk about production value!

Someone mentioned the setting being at a dam like the one on the Terminator movie… it’s the exact same dam located in LA. They filmed it when they were in the US in early 2020.

[@jendiademalleyhart3027]

I think you guys might like Fire or maybe something by rap line. Try Ugh or Tear. PLEASE turn in captions. The lyrics are so deep and passionate!

[@mollydelacy9007]

Btw this MV was filmed while they were in the US specifically in LA and the Marching/Drum line that is seen in the video is the UCLA Marching Band.

[@moonchild4338]

I saw comment saying to pause when you talk but Honestly im okay with people talking over the MV bcs thats less hassle and very honest automatic thoughts. And you can always rewatch first the video aspect music aspect and lyric u kno. Thank for reacting

[@markballard9942]

The interesting thing about the On Kinetic Manifesto is that it is actually the B-side of the release

[@jmarie3902]

Come Prima means "Before" 💥 Watch "Bookish Theories Explanation" video for meaning & understanding of "ON" 💥 Shadow: You Are Me, I Am You {acceptance} 💥 Use CC if you want to 😎

You should turn on the caption so you all know the meaning of the lyrics.. BTS did all genre of music but perhaps only metal they not tried yet. I suggest you to rank the whole points of the song the music, lyrics, mv and their vocals itself and their performance. And only BTS have all of it. Personally they are very talented on their own. The lyrics so meanings full and their performs full of arts and many history in it. They written, produce their own music.. I'm so excited how you all ranks all BTS songs. Cos you all Profesional and hv a lot experience about music.. Keep going.. You did well.

[@TournamentPodcast]

Thank you for the advice and very nice words. I've made a promise to everyone that we will have captions turned on from now on. We're also going to use a site that was recommended to us called 'doolsetbangtan' to help us with the lyrics and song meanings. 👍😀

Thank you. We're learning a lot just by watching these videos 😃

[@markballard9942]

I really hope you guys do turn on closed captions in the next video. If you're basing your rankings on the song alone and you don't have access to the meaning of the lyrics, it kind of detracts from the rankings. On the other hand I really enjoy your reactions.

[@algb2338]

Wow…going to try a few of your other BTS reactions, but am seriously hoping that you don’t always talk over the song throughout. This video is such a masterpiece..just have no idea how you could appreciate any of it while carrying on a whole continuous conversation the entire time. Whew.

[@TournamentPodcast]

Haha. Thank you for the thoughtful comment. We're still learning... and there's definitely a lot to learn when it comes to BTS. We did react to Black Swan (video releasing soon), and I appreciate all the other recommendations. I'll add these to our ever growing list of recommendations. 😉

[@chawndixon9941]

Suga is not the choreographer, actually I'm toddler ARMY (😀) . I think they have choreographers. JHope helps the guys with choreo too. I fell down this BTS rabbit hole during quarantine. I have an eclectic taste in music but I'd never been interested in Kpop. I'm 56 years old and I just ordered my first merch. RM is my bias and all the others are my bias wreckers. Can't wait to play Hunger Games when it comes time to purchase concert tickets 🥰

[@schafferable]

Suga is not a choregrapher. (He is a rapper, writer, producer, etc.) The girl at the beginning of the video that they close in on in the front line was the choreographer for this video. J-hope is the group's dance leader that runs a tight ship to keep them in line. J-hope was a street dancer that they taught to rap.

[@Whyyougottabethisway]

Black Swan is another style from them -- the lyrics are definitely very important and speak about the fear of losing passion for (and the ability to create) the art you once loved. Also, Fake Love is a classic that every fan knows and holds dear. The video is part of an ongoing storyline so some of the imagery may be confusing. *If the music and lyrics are your scoring criteria, maybe turn on the CC so you understand the lyrics -- for songs like this, those are paramount. ;)

[@lpyao9569]

I recommend you this song black swan Blood sweat and tears Fake love

[@TournamentPodcast]

Spoiler alert... Black Swan is actually the song we react to in Episode 6. 😆💜

[@cyberrich]

Checkout a tribute to Ronnie James Dio The Last in Line which Wendy Dio asked Liliac to perform at Cancer fundraiser and Vinnie Appici gave them an unreleased version for the fundraiser about a minute and a half longer than original.They are a family band and music style Vamp metal.

[@joyeful6545]

I think you guys should go back and re-watch "Mic Drop" and this song "ON" with the captions on in order to more fairly score those songs against "Dynamite", which was all in English.

[@deanncoates8456]

Just a heads up on the Closed Captions...Official mvs...yes...turn on ccs. Live performances do not always have them. Only recently have ccs been correct on live performances. ALSO....DO NOT do any of their Japanese...copyright strikes are fierce for them.

[@TournamentPodcast]

Closed captions are on starting with Ep4 when needed. 😀 Thank you for the heads-up on the Japanese songs! 👍

[@helenscott8202]

Guys, I’m a bit lat, but, please don’t talk across the MV! The beat, music, lyrics count. Stop the MV if you wish to talk when stuff is going on. The fact that it feels like it won’t matter since possibly it’s not in English won’t hold. Everything counts in these videos. Army would much more the video be halted and discuss what you want. Then resume . How can you give a rating when talking across it? Not arguing what you think about it, but your inattention was distracting. Also, lyrics count. As an ex dancer, this is one of my favorites, but that’s just me. I come with a background of knowing every note of Queen.
