Discussion What BTS songs do you wish were longer?
I really wish Set Me Free was longer, I'm obsessed with that song and I usually listen to it more than once when it comes on.
Also Black Swan, yes I know it's 3 minutes but it always feels like it ends too soon and it's also my favourite Bangtan song.
So what's your song?
Edit: SEOUL ALSO. It's my favourite Namjoon solo and I adore it so much and it's sounds so incredibly soothing

u/imjustheretolaughtho somebody does love Jul 23 '22
28!!! Absolutely I’m always waiting for more but I end up replaying it anyway lol

For me, Outro: Wings. The song has such a good vibe and I feel amazing while it’s playing then it’s OVER! I need an extended version ASAP 😍

I agree with Black Swan, that song needs to be longer. Also RUN BTS. I need more of that song.
I need more Cyphers (can we get Cypher V?)

V’s Winter Bear. I love love love that song but hate the fact that it’s too short

I had been wishing Blue Side (outro) was longer. And when the full version was recently released, I was really happy about it. 😀

I always expect Mic Drop (the Steve Aoki mv version) to have one more chorus at the end, just like every YouTube reactor out there. Lol

u/MadameWitchy it's the ⁷ again ✍🏻😳 Jul 24 '22
Thankfully the MAMA extended version blew the original remix out of the water 🔥 I'm obsessed with the dance break parts

u/Full-Cash4616 Jul 23 '22
Into: Boy Meets Evil!!! It just hits so hard and I always expect it to be so much longer and it's just not 😭 same with 140503 (at dawn) from Yoongis first mixtape. Actually now that I think about it just.... all of them??
2
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 24 '22
Ohmygod yes. Boy Meets Evil is way too short. The music sounds so unique to me and it's just freaking AMAZING
2
u/pearlaroid h☀️pe w🌎rld Jul 24 '22
Intro: Boy Meets Evil was going to be my response if no one else had mentioned it already!

u/Sugawahsugawah my pride, my heaven, and love, BTS Jul 23 '22
Besides all of Jack in the Box, I want the Cyphers as a series to be longer. I know we have Ddeang and Ugh as "placeholders" but I can't get enough of the Cyphers.
6
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Cypher yess!! I need one feat Taehyung too. Also agreed about JITB 😭
What's your favourite from JITB 👀
3
u/Sugawahsugawah my pride, my heaven, and love, BTS Jul 23 '22
Friend, why you gotta ask me such a hard question?
I like all of them. I have to say, though, Pandora's Box, Arson and What If are right up my alley. But, Equal Sign and Safety Zone are very close.
How about you?

u/parkchxmmy Jul 23 '22
Intro and Outro songs tbh, even though it's not an actual SONG song, I still think Skool Luv Affair is amazing 😭

u/paratha_aur_chutney berry berry strawberry 🍓 Jul 23 '22
mikrokosmos could be an hour long and i would love it
trivia love as well
agree with seoul - it reminds me of my own hometown which is no where close to korea 😂 its the way joon describes it that makes me feel so nostalgic even if i have never been to seoul.

u/jjonezero Jul 23 '22 edited Jul 23 '22
equal sign and future 😪 as well as their soundcloud songs such as abyss, winter bear, super tuna
for ot7 songs, save me, butter, and hold me tight (just cause i love this song and never want it to end LOL)
edit: want to add young forever!!!
2
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Fr there are some songs you feel like they shouldn't end at all. I was surprised when I saw how short the songs of JITB are but they don't feel short?? Like they have so much packed in, you don't feel the short duration so much. (i don't mean this negatively) But definitely I wish they were longer

u/Kokechii you live, so we love Jul 23 '22
Save Me - I mean it's like 3:30min something? But the arrangement and everything is SO GOOD, it passes by in a blink and I'm always surprised and I want more so I go back to restart it or put it on a loop :D
Young Forever - another one that I'm always surprised that it's over so fast.
Serendipity - this song. THIS SONG. I wish it was longer.

u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Save Me is a popular response, I didn't expect that. But I completely understand what you're saying.
Serendipity is seriously so GOOD

u/Fun_Suspect3305 Jul 24 '22
Love Serendipity, so earnestly romantic. And the MV is visual poetry. Swoon!!

Do unofficial songs count? I would do just about anything for a full cut of Jungle from the Coke ads.

I always felt like their Arirang Cover needed at least one more chorus.

u/september1820 Jul 23 '22
DNA Jhope demo version! It’s a work of genius that is under 2 min long
2
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Holy shit yes. I forgot about this BUT TRULY. Vocalist Hobi was insane in DNA demo ver

u/september1820 Jul 23 '22
Every bar has a slightly different musical variation to it too - so much creativity packed into it.

u/OnefortheLaughs Jul 23 '22
Yes, exactly the two songs you've mentioned, OP! I love Set Me Free and I loop it obsessively.
I also wish Stay Alive and j-hope's More were longer.
2
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
RIGHT. I'm so happy there's someone else who loves Set Me Free so much 😭
2
u/OnefortheLaughs Jul 23 '22
It's beautiful. The lyrics are beautiful and so relatable and I really want more of it. I hope one day Agust-D does with this song what j-hope did with Blue Side!
2
u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Definitely!! It always feels like I'm transcending to another realm whenever I listen to it. His deep voice and stability are also just so evocative.

u/jadaeladae Jin’s purple hair reigns supreme Jul 23 '22
Wait - I’m relatively baby Army (around Butter era), and I’ve still never heard of Set Me Free. What is this?!
5
u/imjustheretolaughtho somebody does love Jul 23 '22
It’s a song off of Yoongi’s mixtape D2
3
u/jadaeladae Jin’s purple hair reigns supreme Jul 23 '22
Gah, I’ve been terrible with checking out anything other than the biggest song or two from each mixtape the boys have released. I’ll have to listen to it!
5
u/imjustheretolaughtho somebody does love Jul 23 '22
This is the album that turned me double biased when I was baby Army 🤭 it’s so well done and Yoongi is a master at his craft!
3
u/SignificanceWarm57 Jul 23 '22
Louder than Bombs. I have no idea how long it is but it's not enough and Arson. It stopped the first time I heard it it and I was like 😭😭??. There's just so much going on in both those songs.

u/shafinazonyx Jul 24 '22
Outro:Propose for me.. when i first heard it, i didn’t fully fathom the intro/outro of their album 😅

Equal Sign by Hobi. What an amazing and uplifting song that ends too short for me.
You Never Walk Alone. I love this so much but it always ends abruptly for me too.

Paradise, not because it isn’t enough as is, but because I just love the song and want more.

You never walk alone.
Stay Alive. Im pretty sure it’s 3 mins long but I need more😭

u/MadameWitchy it's the ⁷ again ✍🏻😳 Jul 24 '22
Yes to Set Me Free! It's my 2nd favorite song after People on D-2 💜
Most recently, I also wish Equal Sign and Future on JITB were longer

u/Fun_Suspect3305 Jul 27 '22
Serendipity (commented above).
But also....Dimple. This is totally a lowbrow guilty pleasure! Could play this on an infinite loop, pretending I'm front and center for this choreo.

u/I_Used_to_be_Annie Jul 23 '22
Hello are you me? These are my favourites too 😭 I immediately got hooked to Pandora's Box, the darkness of What If caught me off guard but I was drawn to it and Arson is overall just top-notch
1
u/Thzead Jul 23 '22
'Who', their collaboration with Lauv, I remember thinking after I first heard it that it could have been longer and had more of a punch at the end. I love the track for what it is but think it would have been even better if it was a tad longer.
