I know I'm super late to this thread but wow that's amazing! BTS and Tori Kelly are two of my favorite artists! I love that they know of each other and are fans of each other!
Yajaira Salazar please explain to me, I’m new at this. My friends just told me about this fandom... please explain like is army the fandom? Why is it called like that?
Help me get 100 subscribers :D, Well the translation is Bulletproof Boy Scouts or Bulletproof Boys, something like that. So they're Bulletproof, and we're their ARMY, we help each other out. Without BTS there is no ARMY and with no ARMY there is no BTS. So yes, ARMY is their fandom. Did I explain it well, or at least okay-ish?
I was looking at the comments of the original song by Tori Kelly, and I saw this guy, JungKook, constantly being mentioned there. Curious as I was, I decided to check out his cover. With this, I learned that he's a popular K-Pop celebrity, and he did a cover of this English song. His singing is absolutely excellent for a foreign singer, don't get me wrong, but it kept me thinking why he would do this cover in the first place. It seems to me, a newcomer, that he absolutely believes in the message of the song, and that he wants to express his feelings in this own, unique way. I don't know many artists that put so much emotion into their music nowadays, and it amazes me how much effort he must have put into this. It's this display of passion and energy that makes me want to check out his works now, even though I don't know much in the way of K-Pop. Absolute respect to this man for embracing the music, and I hope that his other works are just as beautiful. Edit: This comment I made three years ago is akin to a time capsule of my thoughts. Entering the K-Pop scene was a very meaningful experience for me, and I've learned a lot since then. I believed then and continue to believe now that music is meant to be a medium that transcends language and culture, and artists like Jungkook are beautiful representatives of that. I haven't followed much of the popular K-Pop groups since I posted this; I've listened to more piano-based jazz and Japanese rock. Nonetheless, K-Pop and the artists who captivated me will always have a place in my heart. As I write this edit, I find myself repeating the melancholy chords of "Paper Hearts" on my guitar; bygone emotions surfacing as I recall less complicated times. I respect all who shared their thoughts with me, and I dream of a day when we can all learn to love and share the music together.
a lot of kpop artist cover english song it's kind of trend...idk.... but sure check out BTS (it's his group's name) n their newest mv Blood Sweat and Tears.:) :)
+Rukaiya Zahan I've been checking out BTS recently since discovering Jung Kook, and I think I'll stick to it. I'm in love with what they've put out so far, and I'll probably look into other bands as well; their music speaks to me and a lot of you fans as well I presume :)
Soon, you'll fall so hard for k-pop you won't even realise it yourself. Jungkook indeed has an amazingly beautiful voice, makes me wanna let it all out. An ARMY like me, I've lost the ability to judge whether the song is good or bad (because I just love every song BTS throws at me😂), its great to see that other people appreciate this song too. Side note, check out BIGBANG.
Many K-Pop groups are very talented. Some people says K-pop is a bit weird, but my oh my its quite great. I wasn't a fan last year. But now I'm jamming. If you are interested you should listen to Black pink, those girls are very talented. You don't have to though lol
I discovered Black Pink a couple of days ago actually! I think K-Pop definitely has a diverse range of music, but the same is true for all forms of music as a whole really. I like to keep an open mind when I explore new mediums, and K-Pop has definitely kept me interested long enough for me to stick to it. Not to mention every artist is seriously cute :D
heyitsgracee i agree his voice is a real angels voice if i was one of his parents i would be so proud altho i think his parents are already proud of Jungkook
I used to listen to this on loop when walking home from school and sing along. 7 years later in my third year of uni, returning to this and reminiscing on all my old memories, my smiles and laughter and my youth with BTS. Anyone else?
Remember the way you made me feel Such young love but Something in me knew that it was real Frozen in my head Pictures I'm living through for now Trying to remember all the good times Our life was cutting through so loud Memories are playing in my dull mind I hate this part paper hearts And I'll hold a piece of yours Don't think I would just forget about it Hoping that you won't forget about it Everything is gray under these skies Wear mascara Hiding every cloud under a smile When there's cameras And I just can't reach out to tell you That I always wonder what you're up to Pictures I'm living through for now Trying to remember all the good times Our life was cutting through so loud Memories are playing in my dull mind I hate this part paper hearts And I'll hold a piece of yours Don't think I would just forget about it Hoping that you won't forget I live through pictures as if I was right there by your side But you'll be good without me and if I could just give it some time I'll be alright Goodbye love you flew right by Pictures I'm living through for now Trying to remember all the good times Our life was cutting through so loud Memories are playing in my dull mind I hate this part paper hearts And I'll hold a piece of yours Don't think I would just forget about it Hoping that you won't forget
Zuri Got jams some people may want to learn the lyrics on their own as the lyrics on the screen go by too fast. you don’t have to be rude, just be thankful that she took time out of her day to help others☺️
Jungkook really does make me happy. When I first saw him I fell in love instantly, he's truly an angel. I'm very thankful that I came across BTS. They've changed my life for the better.
this actually makes me cry every time i listen to it.. like idk if it triggers something in me or if his voice is just pure beauty but i just can't control my emotions
Jungkook put so much effort and emotion into this song I know the hard times BTS and jungkook went through This man was the only reaaon I started singing and realised that my voice great I'm not bragging about myself....but i love k-pop now i realize it's an hard work for them...I love this song in every way and jungkook must have meant something in this he realize's the lyrics and everytying and now I'm an full time Army (Adorable representive MC for youth) I purple you Bts 💜
+Issy that would be a huge honor to have him recognized by Tori. and yes, yes his voice is like cotton candy clouds on a breezy sunny day. lol sorry I love them both. Tori and Jungkook are both wonderful artists :)
i can’t relate to the song but there’s always something about jk’s voice that always makes me cry and sentimental. it feels like he’s tearing my fragile heart off..
I remember the first time I heard this I felt so emotional. I absolutely love his voice. I mean he doesnt have the widest range and he's not everyone's cup of tea since it's quite breathy and airy but I just love how it makes me smile and feel like at peace. it's so gorgeous and soothing. he is probably one of my fav vocalists style wise.
Angel N. Soooo true I feel the same thing I love his voice absolutely incredible I don't know what to say nearly made me cry so emotional UGH I LOVE IT😍😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Someone commented below: When you can sing in fluent english but can barely speak it. Me: When you can sing in fluent Korean but can barelt speak it...
They can sing languages they don't know well because they don't have to think of the meaning, it's given to them phonetically, so they can just read it without having to know what it actually means. That's also how you get so many wtf English phrases in Kpop songs like "because I naughty naughty", "just close your lips, shut your tongue", "we hurricane", etc. etc. etc., they don't really know what the words they're saying mean all the time but they don't need to to repeat them
I've done that-but if you do it,make sure he has his own playlist. Dancing King is a great song,but you don't want it blasting in your ears and waking you up at 2am on a school night.
LOL I'm so far in, nothing can change my ultimate love for Yoongi, but everyone else is very close. Yoongi is just so me, and I connect with him on an emotional level, so I can't not have him as my bias at anytime.
God even after all these years, I still come back to this and it honestly feels surreal how much Jungkook (and me myself for that matter) have grown during all these years of following Bangtan's music.
This song reminds me of a fresh winter morning, looking out the window of a crowded bus on my way to high school, I would listen to this song on repeat while looking at the dark sky.. 7 years have passed but when I listen to it after all this time I still feel like the 15 year old I once was.
Its been almost 7 years, I still vividly remember how I screamed when Jungkook first released this cover. They are like dear friends to me now, a familly on the spiritual level
Jungkook sounds exactly as he does when he sings a small part of Paper Hearts in his live V broadcast. He's such a natural singer... it amazes me **tears up** he sounds so beautiful.
back in 2017, as a local, this was one of the first videos i heard of jungkook’s voice through a vocal coach’s reaction. weeks later, i was learning how to differentiate their voices as a baby army & his stood out to me. why? because i’ve heard this voice before. full of breath, delicate, sentimental, passionate.. a sweet whisper. now, it’s hobiuary 2021 & i still come back to this video as it brings me back to the time when i learning to love bts for the first time.
The fact that Jimin actually likes this song and recommend it in an interview way back around the time when they first debut and now Jungkook covered it ouch my heart is oh my god
+Allison Camila it wasn't a video, it was actually for a magazine if I remember clearly and all of the BTS members had to answer a questionare. If I can find the screenshot of it I'll give you the link!
Jungkook voice is just perfection, this genre of music suits him so much, I just hope Koreans would appreciate this kind of voice more, where there is no need for too much high notes and putting your whole emotions in the song with soft and soothing tone is just perfect. When the time comes where jungkook tries the solo area too I hope he choose to expand in this genre of music.
dima assy I totally agree, he needs more recognition for his voice. Even though it's a cover he puts his all into it and that's what's amazing about him x
Me to my future children: It was LOVE at first hear~~~ and that my kids, is how Jeon Jungkook became my ultimate Bias😭 hopefully you will get to stan a talented person as this man. He gave me hope in my darkest times as I listen to his mellow voice which always sends me to a haze full of wonder and and romantic vibes, even though I WAS SINGLE AF AND NEVER GOT THE CHANCE TO DATE, BECAUSE HE ALREADY TOOK MY HEART.
This is like being an international fan in a bottle. Seeing BTS halfway across the world living off their pictures and videos😄. I wish I could meet them someday😢
You will don't worry. I tought that i would never see them but I saw them at the KCON in Paris so don't worry ! Fighting ! (excuse me if there is a mistake, I'm not a native :3)
specially when he said "i live through pictures as if i was right there by your side" that one hit me hard because us international fans basically know them through pictures and videos....
+JaMLeSs Or NoT Still LUV ya I was so touched of the "Everything is gray under these these skies wet mascara" "Hiding every cloud a smile when there's Cameras" CUZ I knew that I would never meet them in my life........And I just smile when my and my friends take a picture....but inside me is just a frown......
Jungkook:That I always wonder what your up to Me:Well.....I'm here watching you and your covers,bangtan bombs with my friend And sometimes we get scolded because of watching you guys so much......
its been almost 6 years and i still get emotional over this song. it brings back so many memories of jungkook and young bts (: happy 23 kook! im so proud that you have come so far and never gave up on your passion.
I love this song, but the way he makes it feel way different from the original is beautiful. He can't speak much English, but singing an English song is amazing. His soft voice makes it so good. I wish him a great future and I hope he continues doing things he loves. Jungkook, my bias, i'm proud of him.
Yours is very good, here is mine : The house became a disaster, all the windows and glass broke..... Mom: WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!!!! Me: Mom, I am so so sorry, I "accidentally" turn the volume up while listening to Jungkook's cover Paper Hearts * doing her innocent face plus awkward smile*😬 Mom: You did it on purpose did you....😑 Me: That is correct😏 Mom: .......
Jungkook is the youngest from BTS, with magnificent talents and an amazing voice. He sang this song so well. Dont take me wrong, not just this song. All the songs that he covered or generally sang, they are just mind-blowing. Let's join hands together and wish BTS "Good Luck". I picture BTS having a great time in the future, being a great success, feeling excited for their next performance or fan-meeting. This is how I feel everyday, about BTS. If only BTS would read this comment, and not just mine but for the whole ARMY family. I have just joined the ARMY fandom. They really do appreciate newcomers and comfort them. Love BTS, Love ARMY.
Party TUBE I don't know why, but that almost made me cry. It's like you put our thoughts in beautiful words. Thank you, and I hope BTS can read this someday.
i remember i was searching covers of this song and then this was the first one to pop up. I can't stop thinking about it because he's so good although he's a korean and after that I searched him online, saw bts, then boom. I'm an army.
It's 7 years already and I remember discovering Tory Kelly thru Jungkook's cover. I still remember that this video popped out randomly on my yt 7 years ago. And I'm still going back to this video until this time eventho I'm no longer an army. Time sure flies so fast. This is making me feel a bit emotional.
