Music Musings: My Top 10 BTS Comfort Songs

Friday, July 09, 2021 0 Comments


Happy Birthday, ARMYs! Happy ARMY day to us! Yes, it's our day  July 9, 2021. And to commemorate my 2nd year of being one, I prepared this entry.


Looking through the 100+ songs of BTS, you will find a variety perfect for every kind of mood. From high-energy songs to chill vibes, rap-heavy ones to ballads  they got it all.  And the list will definitely not be complete without those songs that give love, positivity, and comfort for ARMY and for everyone willing to take a listen. 


I listed down my top 10 (in no particular order) BTS comfort songs in this blog entry  songs that give off healing and just wraps you like a warm blanket to get you through the bad days. I wrote down portions of the lyrics (translation from fellow ARMY at https://doolsetbangtan.wordpress.com/) to give you an overview and embedded youtube videos so you can have a good listen if you're interested.


1.  Answer: Love Myself

“You’ve shown me I have reasons I should love myself.”

“Why do you keep trying to hide under your mask, when even the scars made by your own mistake mark your constellations”


2. Magic Shop

“On a day you hate being yourself, on a day you want to disappear forever, let’s build a door in your mind. Once you open the door and enter, this place will wait for you. It’s okay to believe Magic Shop that will comfort you.”

“You gave me the best of me. So you’ll give you the best of you. You found me You recognized me. You’ll find the galaxy inside you.”


3.  Mikrokosmos

“In a dark night, (don’t feel alone) Like stars, (we shine) Don’t disappear because you are one great existence. Let us shine.”

“Perhaps, that tonight is yet again making such a beautiful face is not because of those stars nor the lights but because of us.”


4. Spring Day

“The morning will come again Because no darkness or no season can last forever.”

“If you wait a little bit if you spend just a few sleepless nights, I’ll come to meet you.”


5.  Life Goes On

“Like an echo in the forest, another day will come as if nothing happened. Yeah, life goes on. Like an arrow in the blue sky, another day will fly by. On my pillow, on my table Yeah life goes on Like this again.”

“Although everything is paused, don’t hide in the dark because the light will shine again.”


6. 2! 3!

“It’s okay When I say one two three, forget it. Erase all the sad memories Hold my hand and smile.”

“I hope everything changes once I say It for a better day because we’re together.”


7.  00:00 (Zero O’Clock)

“But still, this day will end When the second hand and the minute hand overlap, the world holds its breath for a very brief moment Zero O’Clock. And you gonna be happy.”

“Like that snow that just settled on the ground, let’s breathe as if this is the beginning. And you gonna be happy. Turn this all around, A time when everything is new, Zero O’Clock.”


8.  A Supplementary Story: You Never Walk Alone

“Though I’d get tired and hurt sometimes, it’s okay because I’m next to you. Because, you and I, if we’re together, we can smile.”

“These wings, although they came out of pain, are wings towards the light. Even if it’s tiring and hurting, if I can fly away, I’ll fly.”


9.  Epilogue: Young Forever

“Forever we are young. In the fluttering flower petal rain, I wander and run in this maze. Forever we are young. Even if I fall, get wounded, and it aches, I run endlessly to my dream.”


10.  Epiphany

“I’m the one I should love in this world. The shining me, the precious soul of mine. I realize only now, so I love me. Though I’m not perfect, I’m so beautiful.”



BTS' discography is extensive and far-reaching with messages about their stories, struggles, society, youth, discovering one's self, fears - and the list goes on. There are still more that you can discover if you would take a deep dive.
