Why autumn leaves competes for BTS best releases since debut [THREAD]

Okay so first lets start with origins. The sample track was originally made by blackbear - deadroses which was then adapted and produced by yoongi, slow rabbit and Pdogg which then relays to us a different plethora of feelings compared to the sample

As we start the song, we are met with cd eaters jinkook as they sing about the need and want to get back to a significant other whilst desperately stating they no longer can catch them

I have to do yoongi justice by using the live raw version, this verse compares a fragile relationship with autumn/ winter weather, where leaves desperately cling onto the tree until it no longer can hold on and falls +

In which the tree is left bare and stripped just like one at the end of a wearing relationship. The leaves left on the ground as a pile represents the little pieces broken bit by bit, and the one leaf left on the branch is the last straw before they break, min yoongi genius

Vocal line sings and expresses the need to NOT have a relationship parallel to the tree yoongi raps about as they emphasise on the need to never let go even if their love is progressing and turning into falling dry leaves

The lyricism joon singing in this bit for me just adds so much more to the tone of raw emotions, joon compares the love between a partner as a new fresh and green season but then also states that what falls must rise, so even though the branch +

Does not shake -> the love is not in a state of distress, at some point the love will eventually have to fall, at this point it is inevitable and cannot be avoided

Okay but lets first talk about the PRODUCTION, the way the music fades to hear taes raw and soulful vocals this is a BRIDGE this is how you get it DONE, a bridge makes or breaks a song and tae made the golden gate bridge

Here tae sings about the sad and wistful thinking to return to the love they had before even though it was destined for the love to ‘fall’ between them which then adds on to the chanting of ‘never fall’ which is bound to happen like a leave falling off a tree

I will forever scream about this verse the change up in the beat and hobi ADLIB KING, like this is top 5 of hobis best verse me thinks i feel like hobis verse comes to terms w the love eventually falling +

As he discusses the need to burn the path and acknowledging the beauty and the journey made. When going through all of raplines verses its like a progressive story of not wanting to face reality to then acknowledging the beauty falling into theme ‘tmbmil’ rapline big brain

And the repetition of vocal line constantly singing the need to ‘never fall’ reminds me of the constant cycle of seasons throughout the year, eventually we will come into autumn at a certain time of year just like its certain at one point the love will ‘fall’

And the way autumn leaves fits so perfectly into the story line, the need to want everything to stay the same and forever be perfect but then coming to a realisation just like seasons, things eventually will happen just like jk in hyyh wanting everything to be perfect +

With his hyungs but then worrying about the reality of the future of them leaving him all behind as they move on just like the seasons

Okay let’s appreciate yoongis production just no words

No one:
Me every day:

I really wasn’t expecting this to gain traction but if you know me ive been screaming for time my love for autumn leaves and how the boys beautifully articulate through their music, the end of thread may do another one if im up to it

Just because

Okay just came back BUT slight correction on my thread because i was referring to many sources -BTS and EXO both getting the sample from blackbear -deadroses, BUT due to the sample being made for indie artists and there can be no credit of sample beats im general and can be used

freely along w yoongi changing up The beat there is no need for credit technically, sorry for any confusion :)

Deleted for any confusion, sorry for any misinfo, and always correct me when im wrong, im always going to listen but the rest still stands
