BTS songs I believe aren't recognized enough - Coffee

Did someone say café vibes and caramel macchiatos with a soft side of sentiment? Well, if you're all in for the warm, metaphoric vibes full of nothing but slow pace, "Coffee" is the right song for you. Released for the public back in 2013, "O!RUL8, 2?" (BTS's second studio album) contained 10 tracks, Coffee being the 6th on the track listing. And while it is viewed as a simple love song on the surface, Coffee has a much more deeper, nostalgic meaning in relation to the lyrics and storyline.

(It is worth noting that there is no music video for Coffee, so a GIF from the music video Just One Day will have to do)

Even though "Coffee" is the most streamed song in O!RUL8, 2? on Spotify at the current time of writing, I believe it still doesn't get enough attention by the general audience as it should.

Using coffee metaphors to describe their love and subtle café sounds, BTS is able to tell a story about a treasured past love through passionate melodies and relaxed vocals throughout. Not to mention the equally loveable calm vibes from the rap line, still getting their point across in a much more subtle manner than usual.

A great highlight of this beautiful song can be from the rap, emphasizing the main genre focused on in "Coffee", R&B, along with the wonderful additives of both Jin, Taehyung, Jimin and Jungkook. All four of them using their voices perfectly during the chorus and throughout added yet another dash of sugar to the mix, and best of all, the high note from Jimin completely sealed the deal for me.

"Coffee" is extremely underrated, in fact, too much for my taste that I feel like more fans should know about it, regardless if they're casual or stans. Because if you want a mellow, relaxing vibe to put on in the background as you indulge in some coffee on a winter's day, "Coffee" is a wonderful recommendation in my opinion.

Nevertheless, thank you so much for reading, and I really hope you enjoyed my little review and look on BTS's Coffee! If you would like to recommend songs for me to cover or review, please leave them below in the comments section. But apart from that, it's much appreciated, and thank you! Much love!

Favourite line of the song - 이별은 쓰디쓴 아메리카노 아직도 추억은 여전히 그 카페로 가고 있어

Breaking up was like a bitter americano My memories still go to that cafe

보라해!

BTS songs I believe aren't recognized enough - Your Eyes Tell

For those who are fans of fantasy, emotionally moving and magical feels, this song is a great recommendation in my opinion. Released back in the year 2020 along with BTS's "Map of the Soul - The Journey", Your eyes tell is a warm song sung from the heart and written by our very own Jeon Jungkook, full of nothing but raw emotion.

Although it is in fact an OST for a Japanese movie under the same name (and sung in Japanese), Your eyes tell can easily of been a B-side for "Map of the soul - seven" if it was initially made as a song solely for their studio album in my opinion.

Words cannot describe how beautiful this song is, and with Jungkook's raw emotions with writing this coming through, it pains me that not all BTS fans are aware of this song, making it all the less recognized among the community.

Although, there are many key points in this song that make me want to put it on repeat, but most of the time, Jin's Pre-chorus before chorus one easily takes the cake for me as he shines extremely well in songs like this (such as Epiphany, Abyss, Moon etc.) However, I must also give credit to Jungkook's outro for the song, ending it in such a calm and mellow way, just like how it started at the very beginning.

Not to mention Jimin's beautiful high note at the end of the bridge, but to put into conclusion, it really has a lot of points to highlight throughout, and I believe all seven members did extremely well (I mean, when do they not right?). Your eyes tell is a wonderful track, and it being an OST for a movie makes it even more exceptional in response. For those who are curious on what the song sounds like, I have linked a preview below, but in my opinion, it doesn't necessarily show the best parts and only the chorus, which is still put together extremely well.

Apart from that, thank you so much for reading, and I hope in the months to come I can turn this into sort of like a mini series of song recommendations and reviews for ARMY! If you have any songs you'd like me to cover, please leave them below in the comments, or reach me via my home page, much appreciated :)!

Favourite line of the song - "君のいない未来は　色のない世界

モノクロで冷たい"

"A future without you is a world without colour

Filled with monochrome coldness"

보라해!

About me

안녕하세요, 만나서 반갑습니다. 제 이름은 루비이예요. Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Ruby. For those who do not know, this is actually my second Tumblr account, in addition to my first initially under the name "Rae" or "rae-sense" (which has now been deactivated), but I hope I can still leave a positive, small impact on the wider community regardless!

I am in fact an Army, have been for years now, and I'm willing to do a Q&A about me in relation to the boys if you like. Feel free to leave your questions below this post, but please make them reasonable and not a way to direct hate at either me or the boys. 보라해!

Oh! And I mainly post about BTS themselves too, such as album; singles reviews, and analyzations on lyrics. I did many back on my old account, and I'm happy to do more if that's what you're all interested in just as much as me.

But apart from that, thank you for reading, and I hope you have a wonderful day or night, wherever you may be. 감사합니다, 안녕히 가세요.

(Also, please excuse if I've used the wrong terminology in Korean, my speaking is a bit rusty, but I promise to get better over time!)
