FAKE LOVEBTS

In the emo hip-hop genre, it features a dark atmosphere and powerful dance performance.

The song’s theme is the end of a love in which one has lost oneself, and the pain and inner struggle that come with realizing that the love was a “lie.” There are occasional English lyrics, but it isn’t difficult thanks to the frequent repetition of phrases.

The part in the chorus where the title is sung sits a bit high in range, so if you project with energy, it should come out smoothly.

Aside from that, it doesn’t go into a high register, so as long as you keep the rhythm, you can sing it without trouble.

Try starting by humming it lightly.

FOR YOUBTS

A heartrending love song themed around a long-distance relationship, it topped the Oricon weekly chart.

Produced by UTA, the music video also features the members transforming into various part-time job roles—another highlight.

The vocal range in “FOR YOU” isn’t very high, but it feels like the lower register is emphasized more than the high notes.

Be careful not to overuse your throat when singing low notes.

Compared to your speaking voice, aim for a slightly more polished tone; lifting your eyebrows helps keep the resonance from dropping too much into the throat, preventing a muffled sound and making it easier to sing.

It’s also recommended to sing as if you’re placing a bundle of breath right in front of you.

This song incorporates elements of bossa nova, Latin, tango, and Mexican samba, expressing the struggles behind a hectic, globe-trotting life and success, and is characterized by an addictive rhythm driven by syncopation.

Syncopation means that, if you’re counting in four beats where the 1st and 3rd beats tend to be accented, the accents instead fall on the 2nd and 4th beats—reversing the strong and weak beats—or the 4th beat is sustained into the next measure without a break.

If you’re strong with rhythm, you’ll naturally be able to groove to it.

‘Airplane pt.2’ doesn’t have a high vocal range, so it’s highly recommended for those who want to enjoy the rhythm!

Best Of MeBTS

It’s a bright electronic dance music track for which RM mainly devised the lyrical direction.

RM highly praised Jimin’s high notes, and it’s said to be an important song that broadened BTS’s musical range at the time.

There are many English lyrics as well, but it shouldn’t be difficult if you simply follow along with the words.

Also, since the song itself is a bright, refreshing love song, lifting your facial muscles as you sing will make your vocal tone brighter and help you produce high notes and falsetto more easily.

Try adjusting your vibe to match the song as you sing.

Permission to DanceBTS

One song that’s also known for being performed at the UN General Assembly is “Permission to Dance.” It’s a track that singer-songwriter Ed Sheeran provided to BTS.

The title means something like “permission for dancing.” The lyrics convey the message, “We don’t need permission, so let’s dance freely.” Since the lyrics are entirely in English, it’s easy to sing even if you’re not familiar with Korean.

There’s also no rap part, so I’d recommend it to those who find rap challenging.

Save MEBTS

For those who want to sing a bittersweet love song, Save ME is also recommended.

It’s a track included on the album The Most Beautiful Moment in Life: Young Forever.

The title means “help me,” and while repeating that phrase, it expresses the desire to become lovers.

Since it’s a mellow song, singing it will give a calm impression.

However, note that there’s a key change in the middle where the song becomes more intense.

That said, the key is on the lower side, so that part should still be relatively easy to sing.

Let GoBTS

Let GoBTS

It’s a bittersweet Japanese ballad included on their third Japanese album “FACE YOURSELF,” released in April 2018.

The song portrays unforgettable feelings for a former lover and the resolve to let go after a painful decision, and its striking choreography and poignant lyrics have been highly praised by fans.

With a relaxed tempo and a simple melodic line, it’s easy to follow the lyrics, so even BTS beginners should be able to learn the song quickly.

Since it’s a gentle track, you don’t need to belt the chorus or high notes in chest voice—falsetto works just fine.

Try singing it softly, keeping a calm, understated feel.
