The wait is FINALLY over! BTS just unleashed their very first full-English single “Dynamite,” and it’s a hot one.
Nothing beats a bright pop track that everyone can dance along to, especially during a time when the world could use a little cheering up! This was the mission all along. When the song’s release was announced last month, the guys mentioned that this would be a fun summer song that would hopefully deliver some positive vibes to ARMYs.
There’s no denying that a BTS song entirely in English came as a surprise for many. I too, was like GURL WHAAAAT! The group had spoken out multiple times in the past about it not being on the agenda. But let’s be honest here – many of the events that have unfolded this year weren’t either.
“Who would ever think of this pandemic? No meeting, no karaoke, no concerts? Even no walking in the park. So we never expected this song would come fully in English. During the process of making our album … it just came to us,” RM told USA Today.
Earlier this week, the web went wild when the septet dropped a trailer for the “Dynamite” music video. The 28 second clip received over 30.2 million views in 24 hours, setting the stage for what will surely be a massive comeback!
Everything BTS does is larger than life though, and they are constantly raising the bar that they’ve set themselves. “Dynamite” is a song that one can play decades from now and be able to instantly reflect upon the time period it was released in. Hopefully, one can say that times were tough, but the soundtrack was lit – and “Dynamite” was a part of it!
Although we are still in the middle of a pandemic, hope can still be found. Enjoying the hard work of our favorite artists and bonding with others who do the same is important for our souls. Continue to use the music of BTS, especially “Dynamite,” as your motivation to keep pushing through these times. With that being said…
Happy Dynamite day, ARMY!
