Listened to old BTS songs, from the HYYH full album and also Wings, and I’m like. Oh, i like these ones best because every other song has a violin (or more than one) doing a melody underneath. And it gives these songs a very unique feel? To be fair I haven’t listened to anything beyond shadow: interlude and black swan (orchestral version) and ON lol and I mean that from 7 I listened to those three on repeat, did once the rest and proceeded to forget about the album. Until like, yesterday didn’t even notice there was an album after that. I don’t like very much the new style? But I tend to go or for ballads or for angsty, so yeah Wings and LY: Tear (plus songs form the HYYH era) is both when I started listening to their music and where I stayed lmfao. Also those videos are the prettiest? Not the most elaborate or anything, but very nostalgic and/or gothic.
PD: I welcome other music recomendations based on this. I find kpop to be way too dense to start listening without at least some sense about the artists and the songs.
