Shimon: Before we begin this Spring Day reaction video
We wanted to give a shout out to Umu's new favorite app called the BTS Amino app
Fiona: Yup they say it's the best app for kpop fans
Ever
Umu: What's really cool about this app is that it's basically all the social media websites combined into one app
You can find the BTS Amino app in your app store for free for both ios and android phones
All you do is search up BTS Amino in your app store or check out the description in this video click on the link that I have posted down there
Immediately when you open up the app your feed automatically pops up with the latest, most popular posts from the BTS community
*Bye umu*
Yunyi: But what's really cool about this app is that it includes all the latest
Fan art, news, pictures, polls, gifs not gifs (lol)
And, you see this all here *Creepin Shimon Appears*
and then you have chats and quizzes right here in the top bar
Shimon: Umu's favorite thing about the app are the quizzes
Which is a new feature in the app. Right? Yeah
There's a huge variety of quizzes made by the app users ranging from guess that BTS song to are you a true Army
So Yunyi and Fiona they are going to attempt a guess that music video
*Shimon.exe has stopped working*
Uh game
*Please enjoy*
*Rossini's Semiramide Overture plays*
Umu: Here we finally are with BTS' comeback
This song is called Spring Day
I know some Army's are worried that Oh no you're suddenly reacting to a comeback you haven't seen the other BTS music videos
Well, they have seen the BTS music videos
They've seen all of HYYH and they've seen all WINGS short films, intro boy meets evil, blood sweat and tears
But however that stuff is to come out awkwardly after this video and after not today because
I'm gonna try my best to keep the schedule that I already have written up so you can see other groups too

Kevin: Hey man, Oh oh oh!

Fiona: It's building
With the extra stuff layered in
Yunyi: Who did the mixing like the little voices that come form different spaces
Jarod: The aesthetic of that beach and his outfit

Shimon: I like it
Henry: Every single camera angle is so pretty, super dope
Umu: Is it the melody you like or the instrumentation
Shimon: Everything
Yunyi: So pretty
Henry: Wow
Fiona: There's a bunch of subtle build ups throughout this
Hugo: Different, nice
Jarod: Alright
davis: I'm actually not sure what it's (chord progressions) doing either
Lindsey: Earlier it sounded like he was going 1, 5, 6, 3
Umu: Yeah
Lindsey: And then it went from 1, 5, 6, 3 but then I was hearing 1, 5, 6, 4 I think it's changing a little
Umu: Mhm
Yunyi: Woah
Hugo: Oh sh*t
Jarod: Don't get hit by a train
Peyton: Especially with the train that you're also on
*crash noises*
Hugo: ah good flipping between chest and falsetto!
Yunyi: So it's like they're all apart, but they're all singing the same song together
and they're all thinking of each other
Fiona: This is what my room looks like right now
Henry: Omg it does
Jarod: Yeah that's all of their outfits that they've used in every music video
Jarod: Just pile em up in a mound when they're done Umu: XDXD
Davis: Oh no that's still 4
One
it's plagal
s-
s- oh what is it
umu: i'm in intensive xD
lindsey: sub dominant?
davis: subdominant function
Gwen: Oh yay he's not lonely anymore
Lindsey: Because it goes from four to one
Kevin: I feel like there's something deep going on but I don't get it
Fiona: The hair!
Umu: Yap!
Fiona: AAhhh
Kevin: I'm not even reading the lyrics, woops
Jarod: And that swing set looks depressing
Peyton: Yeah
Jarod: But it's ok because, ya know
Jarod: Hot teenage boy baand comin through
On a sunny winter day
Hugo: The landscape look like their hair
Kevin: The lyrics are sad? Umu: Mhm
Kevin: So this is a major song with sad lyrics
Umu and Yunyi: Yeah
Kevin: Oh
Yunyi: This is some real Shubert sh*t going on
Kevin: This is some Shubert sh*t going on(LOL)
Peyton: We're done with the lyrics so we're just going Oh
Henry: real! drums
Kevin: What
Henry: Wah ultra saturation they're going from positive to negative
Peyton: There's shoes hanging from the tree
Umu: Do you know what the symbol for that means
Gwen: Wasn't that the drug thing
Shimon: Um uh drugs
Davis: Oh, Oh yeah I do. It's a death thing right Umu: Mhm mhm Exaclty
Leah: Oh that's sad
Shimon: Were they moving away or was someone moving away
Umu: It kinda seemed like that right
Shimon: Yeah with the trains
Umu: So the story about Omelas
Shimon: Ok I know what you're talking about
Shimon: It's like a Utopian where everything, nothing goes wrong Umu: Mhm Leah: Oh
Umu: But, it's perfect because there is one person suffering for the good of the people
Yunyi: I love that so much
The whole video, there was a feeling of reclamation to it or like reconciliation
Yunyi: No I did- Kevin: Did they reference Snowpiercer woaaah (good movie btw go watch)
Kevin: It's about a train, it's set after the apocalypse when the entire Earth is covered with snow and it's uninhabitable
and so there's this train that keeps a ton of people inside and the train just keeps on going.. and stuff
Yunyi: Trains would be- Umu That's what was happening in the music video did you catch that
Kevin: No Umu: They were all in the train
Umu: KEVIN!! Yunyi: Train to Busan, Train to Busan Kevin: All of them Umu: Yeah
yunyi: they're all gnawing die
Kevin: Yeah I didn't know that they were all, I thought that they just appeared on the train at the end
Umu: Yeah they were individually on the train at different times and then at the end suddenly everyone showed up
Kevin: Oh see I don't know their faces well enough
Umu: Good job
Jarod: I enjoyed this one. I like the music a lot. It's something that I would listen to on a regular
It's a lot different than the typical Kpop that we listened to before where
you know it's a lot more techno oriented. This one was a lot more, kinda like rock-ish
because you have the drums going, you have the oooaahhh at the end
It was a very much like a, kind of a western style pop you know with the whole Kpop flare
Which was cool.It felt very familiar
Davis: Yeah the instrumentals, they're pretty easy Lindsey: I like that a lot
Lindsey: It's like they were easy but the chord progressions were weird because it kinda changed but kind of didn't there were some discrepancies
Lindsey: i have no idea, it was yeah Davis: Kevin help us
Hugo: I really liked it because a lot of times during the chords, there was the main lines
it was really high, but they also had a lower voice who was doing like a counter line
It was really good and there were octaves, I don't remember where they were but even more than that
Chord progressions were great because you expect it to go to one and they don't
Davis: i like the little drum pads and guitar synth and stuff that they had going on
It was a little bit more minimal in comparison to the instrumentation I'm used to hearing in these videos
Lots of drums and lots of sampling or something going on that makes it kind of busy
Lindsey: Yeah it was an easy listen
But really good though
Davis: And then it got sad
Gwen: I was into, we mentioned it during the song, the switching between chest and head voice
Hugo: Yeah yeah yeah omg that was so good
Gwen: Becuase it was, it was very clean. You could tell that it was switching which is a very stylistic thing with a lot of pop music
is bringing that switch out but it wasn't like aaaahhhahah
Hugo: It wasn't cracky
Gwen: Yeah like it normally is
Hugo: Like Tarzan
Hugo: But no the way he did it just drived with a chord in such a way
*Gwen is being extra today*
Hugo: The way it drived against the chord and the way he kinda just like ooh it was just very good
Yunyi: I mean I wish I turned on the lyrics but to me the music captured a really awesome sense
of bittersweetness, like it was happy but because of so much of the vocal delay and so much of the reverb they used
It was kind of like a very daybreak feeling. It wasn't nostalgic but it was sort of triumphant or introspective
that was really nicely done on their part
Hugo: I like their artistic choices because it's one thing to have the talent that they do, which they have a lot of
But the artistic choices that they make with their voice and their chords and whatnot is hot. it's some hot sh*t
Gwen: Speaking of hot
Gwen: @ every member
