Summary of EXO’s greatest songs! [Recommended popular tracks] (41–50)
Eve (The Night Before)EXO
Included on the 2017 album THE WAR, it’s a powerful track about breaking through walls and overcoming the darkness.
EXO’s synchronized dancing is so cool, isn’t it? The Eve also features beautiful formations, big dynamic movements, and a masculine, powerful energy.
Among EXO’s many challenging songs, the choreography for this one is relatively easy to imitate.
The contrast between fast and slow movements is especially distinctive!
Let Me InEXO
A ballad that’s mellow yet carries an immense sense of scale.
It was pre-released from EXO’s seventh album, EXIST, unveiled in 2023.
With a worldview overflowing with grandeur and warmth that likens a lover to the sea, EXO’s vocals seep into you.
It conveys a dreamy, blue-tinged emotion, yet no matter how the world is or how it changes, the feelings for a loved one remain the same.
That seems to be the message embedded here.
The more you listen, the more you’ll find yourself drawn into the depth of Let Me In.
Love FoolEXO
EXO’s “Love Fool” beautifully captures a passionate romance, carried by Baekhyun and the others’ powerful vocals, making you feel as if you’re falling in love right along with it.
It was released in July 2023 on their seventh album, EXIST.
It’s the perfect song when you’re struggling with love or want to reaffirm your feelings for someone special.
You can feel the warmth of EXO’s music, as if it’s gently by your side.
Give it a listen as an uplifting, encouraging anthem, too.
WaitEXO
The overlapping vocals of the EXO members create a gentle, soothing song.
While EXO has many powerful tracks, they also showcase a beautiful ballad like this one, centered on members with strong vocal abilities.
It’s a romantic winter love song that conjures thoughts of a cherished lover on a cold day when it feels like it might snow.
You find yourself thinking, “I want to see them soon,” while worrying, “I hope they don’t catch a cold in this weather.” It paints a picture of a happy couple—some might admire it or even feel a bit envious.
Listening to it fills you with happiness.
시선 둘 시선 하나 (what if..)EXO
This is a song included on the 2015 album Exodus.
While EXO is often associated with powerful dance performances by a large group, they are also a group that excels at singing ballads like this one.
From the very first line, the song carries a sorrowful atmosphere.
Coming OverEXO
An up-tempo song with a well-balanced mix of Japanese and English.
The English parts are, of course, super cool, and the Japanese sections groove hard too.
It’s a pretty high-energy track, so even if you feel a little shy, give it a try.
Once you start singing, you’ll find people around you getting into it more than you’d expect.
It’s a song you win by enjoying with your whole body.
Cream SodaEXO
Debuting in 2012 with the mini-album “MAMA,” EXO has become a pioneering presence among boy idol groups.
Among their many tracks, “Cream Soda” is a top recommendation: a dance-pop song that blends a mellow vibe with their cool image.
While many of their songs are aggressive, this one has a moderately relaxed tone, making it perfect to play casually as background music in your room.
