Favourite BTS Songs

Five years ago, in response to one of my Facebook posts, a friend remarked that I was living in a Korean drama. At that point, I hadn’t watched any of these Korean series, and never imagined that I’d become low-key hooked on them. Or that I’d have a BTS playlist and it’d be on repeat all the time!

Anyway, that’s what this post is about, my favourite BTS songs. Do NOT read if you’re not a fan!

I’ll Climb Every Mountain

Because it’s Monday and laughter is the best medicine. If you don’t know this video, Billy Ocean’s backup singers are just what the doctor ordered.

I’ve been losing so long

 

I’ve been out walking
I don’t do too much talking these days
These days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had
A chance to

I’ve stopped my rambling
I don’t do too much gambling these days
These days
These days I seem to think about
How all these changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I’d see another
Highway

I had a lover
I don’t think I’d risk another these days
These days
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It’s just that I’ve been losing
So long

La, la, la …

I stopped my dreaming

I won’t do too much scheming these days
These days
These days I sit on cornerstones
And count the time in quarter tones to 10
Please don’t confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them

La, la …

A ‘Mix-Tape’ for Kit

I used to make mix-tapes for friends but I think they only work for those who are excited about listening to stuff they aren’t familiar with.

I thought I’d start making mix-tapes and maybe mix-shelves (book recs) for friends again, but as blog posts.

This one if for Kit who has begun a new phase of her life. No hidden messages, just some songs I think  she’ll enjoy.
