E019: Songwriter & Vocal Coach React to RM (BTS) - Come Back To Me (Pt. 1 of 10) 

This is a REUPLOAD of our Reaction Wednesday Podcast (June 19 2024) featuring 10 songs from BTS + Solos. Hybe will only permit us to post one video at a time, so we apologize for the inconvenience but hope you enjoy our reactions to all 10 videos! Thank you for your patience :)

12:25 I totally agree with your comment. RM created his music without being preoccupied with commercial popularity or chart performance. If he had wanted to, he could have collaborated with famous international artists and gained more public attention, but he simply showcased the musical world he pursued with indie musicians he liked and wanted to work with. Some might easily say that because he's already succeeded as BTS, he can now make whatever music he wants. However, it's never easy for someone who has achieved great success to make a principled choice knowing it might not measure up to their previous accomplishments. I am very proud of him, and I'm proud that he is the leader of BTS.

This album is the best albums of 2024 (so far) by Rolling Stone, Billboard, NME, and AP 🎉

RM’s new album is so worthy of a Grammy.

YOU MUST LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM!! IN ORDER!!! PLEASE!!!! I loved Indigo so much I couldn't imagine a better album from him and then he released Right Place Wrong Person and I was in awe. I love the album sooooo much!! My current obsession is Around the World in a Day feat Moses Sumney. I really hope you all do a full album reaction. Thanks as always.

Actually, Throga, a good way of approaching RM’s latest work is to listen to the whole album and review it as a whole: it is a musical delight in terms of composition and instrumentation. You of all people would appreciate that. So it would be great if you could do that with Indigo as well, and D2 and D Day for Suga. They are serious songwriters and producers who conceptualise powerful albums, that deserve to be seriously reviewed.

def not a harry styles influence lmao. :) but influence of his friends, "Balming Tiger" in terms of yeah organic and raw instruments. One of the member of the group Balming Tiger worked with him in this song and his album Right Place Wrong Person. some of Balming Tiger's music sounds like this.

You should watch his MMM (Mini & Moni) music it was a sit down conversation with Jimin reviewing this new album.He got really personal with Jimin about why he did this album and where he was at emotionally at the time,he wasn’t in a good place emotionally and mentally for quite a while.But writing & releasing this album really seemed to help him get into a better place.

RM's genius is evident in this song. it's soft, simple with a sweet bit of sophistication that he doesn't often use, especially when he raps and the underground rapper comes out. They all seem to have multiple sides to them, and I love them all!

He’s amazing. I love how he does many things. His writing is just spectacular. All the members have their own identity, I love all of them, and when they come together, just pure magic

RM's solo album is insanely good. There's nothing K-Poppy about it. Critics already praised it as one of the best albums of 2024. It is without question the best of the BTS solos.

Gentle reminder: At the end of your Oct. 14, 2023, you two identified your BTS biases and then Richard commented, "We'll ask this question of ourselves six months from now, after we've got a broader, better picture of everything, and see if that changes." It's been six months; do y'all have an update for us?

The soundscape of RPWP is amasing! GREAT ALBUM!

"Come Back to Me" brings tears to my eyes, like "Flower Works." It Touched me deeply - . RM is so tender, vulnerable and transparent. Thanks for featuring all the songs, guys!

RM solo works are a ride. I recommend checking all of them. You can see his growth. He likes to experiment. His mixtape Mono, album Indigo, and last album Right Place, Wrong Person

For me this song and video is so much about the different roles you can have in life or others put you in and how you're not going to feel comfortable in any of them if you don't "come back" and reconnect with yourself first. Plus I think RM used "the sea" and "spring" in the meanings ARMY would know what to do with ❤ and needles to say - the cinematography ❤ (do you guys know they played the MV in Cannes? 😊).

Because ARMY told them to do whatever they want, and they listened. We got their backs no matter what.

RM's music and MVs are pure art. You are right, that's how it feels to me, that their fame and money finally made them experiment and explore to their hearts content without any constraints . I am all here for it, it's glorious! 💜💜💜

I love this song so much especially because of the length. These days songs are very short leaving you wanting more. But this song makes me feel content. I'm proud of Namjoon for doing what he wants.💜🪻

Thank you for reacting to our OT7 solos.RM really did an amazing job on his new album! I love all the songs but i have favorite songs, like GROIN ( i find the lyrics naughty but there's truth behind it and i love RM on this song because he just bursted out what he feels when he was writing this song) NUTS, a playful RM with cool sounds and DOMODACHI. I hope you can do 2nd round of their solos.More power Richard and Johnny!!! 💜💜💜🫰🫰🫰

78 years grandmother from Norway But originally from Korea. I like to hear "134340" Pluto.

Hybe can be so picky about copyright sometimes... Anyways, glad to see this back on RU-vid! As always, I love the notes on RMs music. This album (rpwp) feels so refreshing and personal to him I love it.

RM my love! He is an amazing artist! He wrote amazing lyrics and music! Greetings from Tricity in Poland :-)

I LOVE the arrangements in this song, it's something so different than what we've heard from them before this. I love the strummed acoustic, the walking bass line, the whistle melody. That final section when the electric guitar comes in reminds me a lot also of John Mayer. He's got such fantastic musicians playing on this

The album was so good. Right up my ally in terms of genre.

I LOVE Come back to me. Though, in my opinion it has a completely different vibe then the rest of the album. I love Right Person, Wrong Person. It is a brilliant masterpiece. However, It took a while to get there. RPWP is complex both in music and lyrics, so I, not knowing anything about rap, or even alternative music, was very taken back. Thankfully, there were wonderful people able to help explain and break it down for me, which helped me fall in love with it. I wanted to say this because in some of your pervious BTS reactions (which I just binged, lol) you have stated about how your knowledge of rap is low. Hopefully, you'll understand it right away, and won't need lots of help like me, lol. Also, I know you tend to avoid explicit content, at least on your BTS videos, so just want to let you know RPWP is very explicit, haha, which I loved. For so long he has had to censor his words, so it was nice to hear him not hold back. I think it was cathartic for him. Sorry for the long comment and thank you for treating the members with respect.

RM’s RPWP album is a masterpiece. As musicians, you should really listen to the entire album from top to bottom with headphones in one sitting. Don’t break it up. Rm will take you on a journey. You can thank me later for the suggestion 😂

Man you are going to LOVE his RPWP album 😊❤

I would love to hear even more of your technical insights (vocally, musically ..) in these songs, I'm learning so much from you guys!! Please yap more we love it🥰

This album is so good that i still can't believe it exists, i can't believe a song like domodachi exists

Thanks for the reaction!!! I'll keep waiting for "Love Wins All" with IU and V from BTS which is a masterpiece of lyrics, voice, music and cinema!!! Bye...😉😉😉💜💜💜

Please react to domodachi next or do a run of the whole album

En general no escribo mensajes en los vídeos, pero hago una excepción para decirles que me gusta mucho su forma de pensar. Tengo 47 años y me enganché con BTS en 2020 gracias a mi hijo. Un abrazo desde Argentina

There was an intriguing comment in... was it in Weverse Magazine? that while RM worked with all of his heroes in Indigo, RPWP features his peers, and in a lot of ways it's his return to the underground scene. It makes me VERY CURIOUS where he's going to go with his third album... because we all know how much he likes doing things in threes. ^_^ (Up-and-coming artists, maybe?) And it should come as no surprise that while all the songs would probably be classed as "alternative," they're ALL really different from each other. My current faves are Groin and Around the World in a Day (which he did with Moses Sumney... and the Prince title reference can't be accidental...)

The little Acoustic Lemotif playing when his Anima appears is my favorite thing this year

Amo este álbum de principio a fin🥰🫂💜

This album is the best album of 2024 ( so far ) by Rolling Stone , Billboard, NME , and AP.. please react to the whole album and then go back to his previous projects ❤ he will amaze you , each song has a different sounds and different stories ❤❤

You should definitely do the whole album. The most unpredictable, alternative and unique album. Totally unexpected, but as you said, we should expect everything from RM, so shame on us for being so surprised.

AHAHAH! The maryjane comment. It's true, I would have "zoned" out to this song over and over when I was younger and "hazier". I love it now, but it does have a certain aura. :D

I love the new album but WILDOWER off INDIGO is my favourite

You should listen whole album. It's amaizing!!!

Please listen to the whole Right Place Wrong People album, all songs in order. It’s a masterpiece, worthy of a Grammy

Thank you Johnny that cracked me up about the smoking pot😂😂😂😂 I don't do it either never have, still just hilarious 💜

Come back to me = himself, his art, his inspiration, his love for music.

One interpretation of the video is the search for his authentic self through different situations and the anima/animus within him coming together, being balanced in harmony. I'd love to hear what you think about that? 😊

This album is a masterpiece. 💜💜

RM's artestry takes my breath away for years 😊 Please react to the incredible singer, pianist musician, out of the box amazing man Fugii Kase (Tiny Desk). Please?

this song gives me poetry slam-vibes

KimNamjoon break record 🇰🇷🤴🔥🔥🔥🔥

this is the last song in the album, listen to the whole album, this is one simply brilliant piece of work, every time I fall in love more and more!

I missed your BTS content soooooo much 😭😭😭

you have to listen to the whole rpwp!!

I love his new album

RM !! He is incredible !!

Im an army mom since 2017, from Philippines. I love BTS forever and thankyou so much for your reactions tp BTS. I really appreciate musicians reacting to them and loVing there wide raNge of music. Please keep it up and God bless to both OF YOU.

Part 1 of 10?? YES I'M SO EXCITED TO WATCH THIS. Looks like you're doing it in order of fanchant too. Awesome! Edit: LOL Johnny with the marijuana comment 😆

O álbum "Right Place, Wrong Person ", nem era suposto acontecer, no qual "Came Back To Me", é o single de apresentação. Mas o Namjoon sentiu-se inspirado, muito por causa dos amigos, que falaram para escrever o que andava a sentir, na altura. Tenho a certeza que vocês vão gostar de "Heaven " e de "Lost!. Apesar que as minhas preferidas são "Nuts", "Groin" e "Domadachi ".

Okay I thought I would make some suggestions for future listing (this might also be my Wishlist). I think it’s time for you to delve into some unit songs. We have the rapline (Tear/Ugh), the vocal line (Truth Untold/House of Cards) and the subunits, for example we have Jimin and Sugas more serious Tony Montana or J-hope and Suga’s (SOPE) less serious Otsukare. Or you could go random and explore some, perhaps accidental, song writing with the In the Soop theme song - there is footage from their holiday house with the off the cuff initial creating and then the completely chaotic recording session with Suga producing - of course you’d have to finish with the 1.30 minute theme song. Then we have RM’s Lost or Jimins new Smeraldo Garden Marching Band! Whatever you do I’m there for it!

Interesting your comment that this sound was something that you would expect from V, not so much from RM: in the recent Disney plus show "Are you sure" (JK and Jimin kinda travel log with V as guest in some episodes) V asked RM to send this (unreleased at the time of the show recording) song and listened to it in the car with Jimin. V's comment was that RM found the sound that he (V) was looking for and he would most likely cover it at some point. So yea, you are 100% right, this screams V, but sounds perfect with RM rendition.

RM's Right Place Wrong Person is such an amazing album, pls have a listen to it from first to the last track, it flows seamlessly and is a great body of work. Rolling Stones, Billboard, NME, AP etc have name it as one of the best albums of 2024, its grammy worthy and totally blows critics minds away, the transition of the songs in the album is just divine ! :)

❤...... it's a very different song, I love that it all fits together , he plays with the Lyrics and Irresistible video to watch.......❤

Aproveitar os vossos vídeos, para intercalar com o streming de "Smeraldo Garden Marching Band feat Loco " do Park Jimin.

Please react to the full album. If not Groin and Nuts. Thank you 💜💜💜

I enjoy your show. Your video of your stars are to dark to tell who you,re watching, and you can,t read what what saying at all. Could you make everything a little brighter and a bit bolder. Thanks

Namjoon's singing in this is peak "your boyfriend singing to you in bed" style.

The chorus to me kinda of has that 70’s Earth, Wind, and Fire vibe. 💜

PLEASE REACT FULL ALBUM RIGHT PERSON WRONG PEOPLE, I BET YOU GUYS WON'T REGRET IT, THANK YOU 🙏

im 23 year old and my favorite song of BTS is Rain from dark and wild album
