Stray Kids "M.I.A." Performance Video 

Felix in Chan's part: *renegade* *renegade*

M.I.A:Who the hell are you? 19:You but in darker

just pointing out that M.IA stands for missing in action, which is an acronym used in the military for when soldiers are missing after battle. The song's lyrics hit harder when we know they're singing to their past selves, almost as if their smile has been fading after life's battles. A beautiful analogy to depression and growing pains.

2024 people?

Chan: Tell me what you want baby,2x Me: Your laptop, sir .

*facts of the day* stray kids pronounce m.i.a as 미아/mia. 미아/mia means Lost Child/ Lost Kid in Korean. Lost Child = Stray Kid. m.i.a is also an acronym for "missing in action". + edit *again* : basically, they're talking to themselves in this song. they refer themselves as "you" in the lyrics. m.i.a, the underrated queen that i love so much. *••hello stays, let's pray the best for them. it hurts. but no matter in what situation, life goes on and therefore let's support them harder! i hope y'all are okay and please take care of yourself.*

it's been 4 years and these visuals are still killin it!

fun fact: stray kids make no bad songs

whoever put changbin into that outfit NEEDS a raise

M.I.A really is underrated Queen,don't lie this is not ur first time coming back here :)

This song has a very nostalgic vibe. Changbin's fit is fitting! 🤩

Skz is incredible, his songs are incredible, it may take as long as it takes, but I will always feel the same good vibe listening to this. Anyone else listening to this Masterpiece in 2024?

BLACK HAIRED MINHO BLACK HAIRED MINHO BLACK HAIRED MINHO BLACK HAIRED MINHO BLACK HAIRED MINHOOOOOOOOOO

Petition to bring back Minho's black hair 🖐

M.I.A is the song that made me respect skz music a lot

Just a Baby Stay (5-Star Era) replaying SKZ MVs from pre-debut to their latest one (Social Path & Changbin's Fly high) ~ They have grown so much - in substance, talents and physique. I am forever proud. My only regret is not being with them from the beginning. HUHUHU

does anyone realise how perfect I.N's voice is... it suits this song so muchhhhh i can't imagine what would it be like without it

For new STAYS: Felix: The guy with the good looking face Changbin: The guy with the good looking face Hyunjin: The guy with the good looking face Chan/Chris: The guy with the good looking face Seungmin: The guy with the good looking face Jisung/Han: The guy with the good looking face Jeongin/I.N: The guy with the good looking face Woojin: The guy with the good looking face Minho/Lee Know: The guy with the good looking face Hope this helped❤

SKZ'S rap line is the hottest thing ever.

FOR A NEW FAN welcome to the stay kingdom, the stray kids empire, where everything is majestic and beautiful and fantastic and spectacular- from Bang Chan, the Stray Kids' leader

i still come back regularly, because this is one of SKZ's best tracks!

I still remember when I decided to stan them because of this song. Literally one of their best songs yet so underrated 😭

minho is a beauty breathe if u agree

hyunjin:why are you starig at me again? me:uh...theres handsomeness on your face.

しんどい時M.I.Aに戻ってきちゃう そのくらいこの曲に支えてもらってるから、こんな曲作ってくれたスキズに大感謝➰🤍

Voice I.N angel

Woojin in the song:"I miss you" Me after Woojin's news: "I miss you too... So does other STAYs in this planet...."

the voice of minho is angelic perodt.

This era Minho has me in a chokehold!

Stray Kids slayed everywhere around the world.

So are we just going to ignore the fact that this song is about them singing to themselves!? This video is so simple yet so amazing and so important to the message of the song, which is amazing as well. Love it

*chan: tell me what you want baby* *me: ....* *me: for you to get sleep*

Baby stay here! I'm doing their songs marathon in order for the first time

Going back to my always fav stray kids songs, this is such a masterpiece

0:24 Christopher Bang the ORIGINAL "DALLA DALLA"

*WARNING* Minho's visual attacks as soon as the video begins!

Me, a baby stay finding this video: "They have a video for every song I like!!!!!🤩🤩🤩🤯🤯🤯"

It gets so nostalgic now listening when ive more grown up now compared to 3 years back then when i first got known to skz😭

Stray kids debuted March 25th, 2018 with the fandom name “Stay”. They came out with their first album called Mixtape and also came out with their first song called Hellevator and debuted with District 9. Predebut, Hyunjin and Jisung were not on very good terms and would tend to fight a lot, luckily they’re really close now. More predebut stuff, they were on a survival show and Minho and Felix almost didn’t debut with the team, luckily they did~ By the way, Changbin, Chan and Jisung debuted in a predebut group called 3RACHA, should check them out. If you’re new, welcome to the fandom.

WHY IS NOBODY TALKING ABOUT CHANGBIN'S SHRUG AT 1:43 😭 i literally played that part again and again i

i think this will for ever be my favorite skz song literally everything the lyrics, the aesthetics of the video, the vibe, their voices and rap i adore it.

0:12 Chanie's voice is so soft and beautiful ❣️

Idk if anyone is actually going to read this but I thought I'd comment this just to address a misconception! M.I.A. isn't a love song, it's about missing one's past self- how they've changed as time has passed and how they miss their old happy self. Plus, M.I.A. isn't Mia it stands for Missing In Action ^^

M.I.A is such a beautiful song. I thought they are talking to us using the lyrics but it turns out they were talking to themselves. How they misses the old them, the bright personalities and smiles, and it makes the song more depressing. Stray Kids' music never disappoints. ♥️

все еще с первых секунд считаю это шедевром

WHOEVER STYLED CHANGBIN IN THIS DESERVES A RAISE-

왜이렇게 위로가 되는 곡이지..?ㅠㅠ 무선 이어폰 시키면 맨날 이거만 들어야지

Bang Chan. As I’ve frequently noted, I have been a K-Pop fan for almost a decade but I have never seen somebody like you in the musical field before. What you have been and are capable of, is absolutely untouchable and I’ve learned that there is nothing that can take the sincerity and passion out of your character. I will say, despite being a long-time fan of K-Pop, I didn’t become a Stay until the just a few years ago. I don’t know how I went so long without knowing or supporting Stray Kids sooner, but I am completely and utterly thrilled to be a Stay now. To this day I wouldn’t know about Stray Kids if it weren’t for the Stay. I heard so much conversation among the fans of Stray Kids about how fearless of a leader you were, and I became curious. Over the course of those few years, I have spent my free time, which I lately have a lot of, getting to know you and your members. It started with liking a few songs, but then Stay, who talk with so much praise about you and your members, convinced me to see what was lying beneath the meaning of your music. I began to watch Stray Kids content whenever and of whatever I could, and I gradually fell more in love with your performance and personality overall. I have come to know how passionate and dedicated you are and have always been to music and performing. Even before Stray Kids was officially formed and debuted, you had music in your heart and I can see that clearly every time that you go on stage with your members. Not only do you have a naturally beautiful voice evident of vocal capability and strength, but your dancing skills are rigid and flawless beyond words. Your presence on stage is nothing less than inspirational and you ground and center your members in a way that I’ve never seen before. You always bring everyone together and emit unity on and off the stage. Outside of your musical performances, however, I have gotten the pleasure of getting to know you and your personality. I don’t even really know where to start by how touched I am at the positive impact you have already made on this world despite still having so much more left to say. Before I became a Stay, I didn’t know much about what Stray Kids had gone through to get where they are now; and I didn’t know just how much you went through either. However, the loving Stay introduced me to how hard you worked individually to keep your members’ heads above water through the rigorous days of training, performing, and other events that swarmed you. I was, and still am absolutely mesmerized at what you have accomplished to make this group possible, and successful beyond its comprehension. Thanks to the Stay, I know that before Stray Kids even debuted, you formed an unbreakable and unique bond with each of the members as well as one together as a whole. You lift your members up with the emotional and motivational weight of all the words that you’ve ever said to them. To know that there would be no Stray Kids without you makes me love you in a manner that is simply indescribable. I know that I, your members, and the Stay have so much respect and admiration for you because of everything that you’ve done and overcome in just the beginning of your musical journey. I have gotten the honor of seeing at least some of the group’s history and how it came to be, and seeing how you were a huge part of that makes me appreciate having you in my life more than I did before. You have single-handedly helped carry this group to victory and done so much to ensure that you stay together. You have always kept your promise that you, in words that I once heard you say, “Don’t leave anybody behind.” On top of leading your group to all of its success and glory, your are also humble and kind and always put them first. You sacrifice so much for your music, your members, and Stay and we recognize how hard you work day in and day out. You are so funny, clever, and know not to take life too seriously. At the same time you are professional, intelligent, respectful, and wise beyond your years. You are every bit qualified to be the leader that you are and I hope you never doubt your capability of doing that because Stay have seen you build something beautiful with your own two hands from the ground up. You never gave up even when the world encouraged you to and from that I find so much inspiration that I don’t even know how how to thank you. All I do know is that your family and parents are the most proud of you and love you more than any of us do. I can’t even imagine how strong they think you are for what you’ve created. I don’t want to put any more pressure or a burden on you, but so much would crash and burn without you and I hope that our love and support is enough to lift you up through your darkest times. You deserve so many blessings and praise. I just hope that you know your efforts are being recognized every second and that Stay, your members, and your family love you beyond words. I can’t thank you enough for everything that you’ve already done. You make Stay and your members feel so valued and desired and I know that only you can do that. I can’t wait to see what you do next because I know that I couldn’t leave you or stop supporting you if I tried. On behalf of your friends, Stay, members, and most importantly family, I pray that this birthday is filled with all of those blessings that you deserve and that it’s everything that you desire. I pray that you and your loved ones remain in good good health and good faith, because the world is relying on it in order to fully heal and love each other. Happy birthday Bang Chan, and from the bottom of my heart, we absolutely adore you. You make Stray Kids all around the world stay.

"i miss you. i miss you. i miss your big happy smile." -woojin (m.i.a.) woojin, i miss you already. thank you so much for everything.

Some facts: Changbin is so handsome, how are we even alive looking at him Minho singing and rapping is something we all need Woojin's high notes are no joke, we stan a vocal king Their voices are so beautiful ❤

* missing long haired jisung hours*

이 노래는 왜 좋은 감정을 불러 일으키는가!!!나는 곧은 아이들의 신을 이해하지 못한다!!!!!

Hace poco más de un año conocí está canción y me entristece ver qué muchos la dejaron olvidada por ser de la época dónde eran 9, me parece injusto, es un trabajo de calidad, la canción es hermosa y ellos trabajaron mucho por ella, como lo hacen con todo, debemos apreciar más estás canciones sin importar la era a la que pertenecen ellos las hicieron con mucho cariño para sus fans

NEVER IN MY 17 YEARS OF LIFE HAVE I BEEN FED SO WELL WE STAYS OUT HERE LIVING OUR BEST LIFE RN Update: Jesus Christ I’m nearly 20 now

0:12 Chan killed me with his vocals 0:27 Minho killed me with his presence 0:40 Jisung kills me with "ahHAh" 0:54 Jeongin kills me with his glare 1:01 DAMN BOii Seungmin 1:21 Woojin's "na BogO ShipEo" 1:33 FELIIXXX U sond liek JACKSON!!! Im dying 1:38 Changbin's soft start for once!!! 1:50 HYUNJIN AHHH visual king... That took 4ever omg.

M.I.A is such a gem. Will always be one of my fave tracks. 😭💕

July 2023 and this song is still a classic bop!

I can't get enough of Minho's voice, I love him so much.

i'm not even kidding when i say changbin needs to calm down like boi just be calm for once what are u grrrr-ing for 24/7

now that we have new jeans, aaa, and the whole y2k moviment getting stronger and stronger in kpop and music in general I can't help but feel sad bc this song isn't talked about as much as it deserves 😖

Changbin. It only took a few months for me to fall completely in love with Stray Kids and you, even when I barely knew anything about the group. What caught my attention right away was your rapping skills. I've never heard anybody rap like you, and I know I won't for the rest of my life. There's something about the way you do it, and I guess some people really are born with talents. I am so glad you are sharing your musical ability with the world because you were meant to do it. The charisma, passion, and ease into which you weave into your rap enticed me from the moment I first heard a Stray Kids song and it was history from there. It was impossible to not become a STAY, and it's one of the best decisions I've made in my life. I hope that you keep rapping and singing and that you flourish and grown in Stray Kids, as well as individually, as long as you live. I am so grateful I stumbled upon your once-in-a-lifetime voice, and am so blessed to get to hear it whenever I want. Please do not stop making music because I, and every other STAY, need your voice to keep going another day. I am so proud of everything you've accomplished in just two years in SKZ and can't wait to see what you do next. I will always support you and look forward to hearing what else you can do with your versatile voice and outstanding performance etiquette. Keep dancing perfectly, singing beautifully (as you demonstrate in this video), and most of all, rapping, which is what you do best unlike no other. You are an absolutely beautiful rapper, and I hope you never give that up for anyone or anything. I absolutely adore you, and thank you for working so hard every day. Don't give up. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stay safe, and enjoy your birthday! Here's to many more and all of the success that will meet you in the future. I love you!!! 😘🥰👑❤️🎈🎊🎂🎉🎁

First of all *MINHO VISUALS WTF* second of all The set is so aesthetic damn I love it

i could listen to minho's 'neverland' part all day

I feel that the lyrics of this song reach me and I identify myself

this song is going to be 5 years old in just a few days... i can't believe it. i used to love this song so much, listening to this again brings back memories :(

stray kids talking to themselves about how they miss themselves when they used to smile a lot and how they miss their past selves I'm not crying you are

Everyone talks about Minho, which I can understand but hear me out. ✨Changbin✨ his look, his voice everything. wOw, just wow, thats all I'm gonna say. Just Listen to Changbins part at 2:03✨ Have a good day stay and stay healthy

생각나서 몇개월만에 다시 왔는데 너무 좋다.. 제대로 들어야지 ㅠㅠ

I feel like this is the skz song that shows chans and hyujin‘s musical taste the best. They both rlly enjoy rnb and this is perfect for them! We need these type of music back

I think they used autotune to represent future, they want to have the futuristic element, because they are in the future self and talk to their older self. They are Geniusss,,,,they are on another level

NOTHING TO SAY, BUT MINHO IS A WHOLE BLESSING IN THIS SORRY

descansa mucho lilis, hasta mañana, faitin en la escuela, sueña bonito y cuídate tqmmm buenas noches 💞💞💞

Why this song isn't known widely like the others, like hey!! this is so amazing

This is a very modern hiphop style track. I’d actually love an acoustic version of this song without the autotune, I think it’d sound really good

The fact that they are singing this to themselves hit harder when you can relate..sometime we miss our old selves don't we?

been here since 'my pace' and yet no regrets stanning them 🤍🤍

Bang Chan best leader Bang Chan is handsome Bang Chan is cute Bang Chan is hot Bang Chan has amazing vocals He can rap Because he is perfection

Minho: "Neverland" Me: *was bias wrecked and temporily died with just one word that came from THE pure amazing talented fantastic and beautiful one* ㅠㅠ

As a new stay I have been binge watching all of their videos. So I can be up to date. This song absolutely speaks to my soul though. 💜💚❤️🖤🫶🏻

Jisung. Deciding to support Stray Kids has been one of the best decisions of my entire life, and you are one of the people who are the reason why I do so. I only just started supporting K-Pop groups three years ago, and I discovered so many groups because I had the time on my hands. However, since I graduated high school I have found I have been a lot busier and unfortunately haven’t been able to dedicate my time to supporting these groups that I like. I didn’t think that there was going to be any time left for me to support another group, but then you came along. My first experience from Stray Kids was the song ‘Side Effects,’ and it fortunately was a song where I got to hear the vocal and rap blend of your versatile voice. Next, it was ‘Boxer,’ which despite it being an upbeat song, almost moved to to tears because of how beautiful your voice sounded. After that, I watched you on ‘The Masked Singer,’ and I couldn’t stop from there. I quickly learned that there is nothing that you can’t do. You are a stunning vocalist, flexible rapper, and outstanding dancer. Overall, this allows for you to be one of the most exceptional performers that I, and other Stay, have ever come to know. I knew, right from the moment that I heard your voice, that I had to have more. I kept going, and since then, I have come to learn so much about you and the legacy that you have already left on music. Stay is one of the most unique fandoms that I have been so fortunate to join, and I now know that you are one of the reasons why. I had always thought about Stray Kids as being such an active group and constantly releasing music and content to show how much Stay meant to them, only to find out that you have been such a huge part of that all along. I haven’t even been a Stay for very long yet, but I already have seen the indescribable impact that you left on Stay. It is unlike anything that I have ever seen. I can see how happy, inspired, and desperate that Stay are to reciprocate every ounce of love that you give to them. When I became aware of this, I knew I had to be a part of it. You are so generous, honest, loyal, and possibly most importantly, I have seen you completely change the type of day someone is having just by setting the mood. Whether it be your members, or Stay, you always make sure that everyone is having the best day possible, even it means you have to sacrifice your mood for somebody else. Because you are just naturally funny and inclined to make everybody around you happy, you have an outlook on life that causes everybody you ever meet to be better and happier because of it all. As I’ve said, I haven’t been a Stay for long at all, but on behalf of the other fans, I already can’t even thank you enough for everything that you do every day. You have such a refreshing personality that we all need, especially at this time in the world. I hope that you never lose the innate kindness in your heart and actions; and I am so blessed to be able to thank you for all of it today. On behalf of Stay, who encouraged me to join them and showed me that there are no limits to your love, your members, who adore you quite possibly in a way that no other person can, and your friends and family, who we know are so proud of you, I want to wish you the happiest birthday ever Jisung! I pray that you and your l loved ones stay safe and find happiness and worth in the future. I am so proud of everything that you have accomplished and am so glad I get to see you grow each day now! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE stay safe, and I hope you know how much we all absolutely love you so much!!! Be happy!!!

I know a lot of people kept on saying that why bother use autotune when they can use their own voices? I think using an autotune in this song is part of the concept of the album and the song. Basically , M.I.A stands for Missing in Action , as you can see in the lyrics , they are questioning theirselves that something was changed and they used THEIR VOICES to represent the sudden change of theirselves. They used autotune instead of their real voices . Autotune represent the changes of our ownselves and the missing part or action is our own voices. Do I make sense ? I'm sorry for the grammar it's bcz it's not my first language .

Stray Kids performance videos are always perfect and aesthetically pleasing

Still coming back here coz M.I.A still the bside queen of SKZ for me 🥹

Changbin, I know that your birthday is in some weeks, but I want to take this time to appreciate you early! I would like to talk about your musicality. I’ve never heard anybody rap like you, and I know I won’t hear anybody rap like you for the rest of my life. You have this growl, this grit, that is enough to supply every word you say with the perfect amount of power and character that it needs. No matter what the circumstance is for your song, you retain this originality and this sound that nobody else has. The connection between the raps you create and your execution of them is simply seamless. Your lyrical style is mesmerizing, and watching these musical ideas pop into your head like second nature is truly astonishing. You can also sing beautifully as well, and the rough texture of your voice gives you this edge that lights up all of your lines. It is rare to see somebody be able to master both singing and rapping, and the unique sound of your voice allows for you to become limitless through both. You are also an incredibly skilled dancer. Your moves are so natural, and watching you feels surreal because you become so immersed in your movement. You absorb all of these choreographies, and then interpret them in such a realistic and emotional way. You have so much power and when you dance, yet you have the right amount of control to give off just the perfect amount of expression. You give care to each little gesture, and treat each move with such delicacy. It is a journey from start to finish when you dance, and you take all of us with you without missing a single detail along the way. Overall, you are one among other artists that sincerely represent our generation and capture its essence. Your innovation and relationship with music are so complex and clear at the same time. You are young, but as you become older and more experienced, there is no telling what you’re already curious and inventive mind will supply to the world. Your impact on music and your Stay will be timeless. At the same time that I love your musicality, I love your personality as well. I first noticed that you are so laid-back and have this calming demeanor. You are also unexpectedly hilarious. You make jokes in moments where nobody anticipates and you can change the entire mood of a situation in mere seconds. You are so humble, and place those around you before you no matter what the circumstances. Though I have never met you in person, you have to be one of the best people to be around and I know that your members know this better than anybody else. You really hold your team down, and together, and always find a way to make sure everybody feels included. It has only been a short time since I’ve known you, but I saw almost instantly how your members individually love and cherish you in their own special way. You bring the excitement and thrill of life to them wherever and whenever they need it. You have the biggest heart. You have stood your members up time and time again and pointed them in the right direction if ever they forget what they are chasing after. You are somebody they can lean on through all instances in their life; and have become their brother. We all know that you provide your members with a love that they could not get from anybody else. Though they are all different, you find a way to embrace this and form a sacred relationship with each of them. I know that they will continue to grow and develop, but only with you by their side to guide them through it all. They will continue to be the best versions of themselves and there is nothing that can hold them back because you believe in them with all of your heart and soul. Your love will always trail them and aid them for the rest of their lives. Thank you for raising them, and changing their lives forever so that they can lead the fullest life possible. I want to personally thank your family and parents for raising you and helping you become the aspiring young man you are today. I know how much your family means to you, and you have firsthand showed us what they mean to you and how you spend your time with them. It is clear to see that you already keep this in mind with you at all times, but I just want to say that I hope you can always rely on them in your life when you find you need somebody. When you find yourself having troubles down the line, I hope you can remember the feeling of being with them to restore you to your former state of peace and optimism. Your family loves you more than anybody else on this planet, and I hope you know that when you feel there is nobody who can understand, they will always be there to help you out of any tough situation. They are the most proud of you, will always be the most proud of you, and you honor them with every step you take towards your dream. As Stay, we keep them in our hearts as you do and hope to become as dedicated and authentic through all that we do as they are. Changbin, it is often said that Stay are the luckiest fandom in the world, and I can wholeheartedly agree with that as you are responsible for the truth behind this. You are extremely sensitive and considerate of all of our feelings, and that is perhaps one of the aspects of you that I love the most. You seem to always listen to what we have to say and are even eager to respond to it. When discussing Stay with your members or others, you always have the most original ideas and show us how much you love us through your own eyes. When we chose to become a Stay, you chose us. Your world opened up to us and you invited us to become every bit of a part of you as your members and family. Similarly to your members, there are Stay from all over the world who come from different backgrounds, and it is only because of you that we are able to come together in unity. I know it’s not always easy to let us in and to see us while you’re in a tough situation, but the fact that you put your fears aside and show up for us every time is the greatest testament of your love for us. You are the first person we turn to when we are down and need cheering up. It is truly the greatest honor getting to be the ones that you work so hard for and trust it all to. You have faith in us when we don’t, and it gives us enough confidence to tackle whatever is thrown at us. Thank you for loving us unconditionally, and being there when nobody else has. Thank you for changing our lives, and being at the heart of the greatest days of our lives. I know that you’ve been through a lot, even after only being active with Stray kids just for a few years. I’ve seen firsthand how it took all you had and then some to even debut, and there have been too many struggles since then that you’ve faced. The best that I can do, knowing that you’ve been in these difficult situations more than anybody should be in, is try to imagine how it feels to be in your shoes. I know that it’s been a lot. All that I can say, on behalf of all of your loved ones, that we are so proud of you for making it past all of these moments. You have a heart a gold and always keep your head up even when it feels impossible, and I know that this is the reason why you’ve been able to persevere through all that you’ve been through. Thank you for teaching us that we can do the same, and for having enough ability to force a fulfilled live for your Stay and members a well. We know that you can take charge and make it out of whatever happens in the future. I hope that this birthday makes all of your dreams come true and that you accmplish all that you desire on this special day. I often wonder of when you get to take a break and truly look back on the impact that you’ve had on the world, so I hope that if anything, your special day provides you for the perfect opportunity to do that.

I just started crying oh my God All of the songs on the album really hit hard. I've been trying to find a group who wrote songs like this. Songs that so many people can relate to. In this day and age, so many people struggle with mental illness. I don't know what they were thinking when they wrote this song, so this is just my interpretation. If there's someone reading this that doesn't struggle with mental illness, I'm so happy for you. If someone is reading this and does struggle with mental illness like I do, I'm here for you. Stray Kids is here for all of us. They really do love us you guys. Stay strong 💞
