It’s finally here now! I know I couldn’t come fast for it but you know I had to announce the results yesterday. Before starting this post, again I want to congratulate the winners of the Photography Contest. And for the celebration, here is Butter for you.

I do album reviews, EP reviews on my blog, and today I’ll do the first song review on my blog. And what could be better than BTS latest released single ‘Butter’ for starting something new (they are always so lucky for me).

Butter their second English song following Dynamite. It has already broke two world records and the fun thing is that they broke their own records of Dynamite. Butter Official MV has set a new all-time record for the biggest YouTube music video premiere with over 3.9 million concurrents. And also, it reached 113 million views in just 24 hours! Worldwide trends right now are filled with hashtags like #ButterMV, #GROUP HUG, #TEAMWORK MAKES THE DREAM WORK, #Butter by BTS….. so you can see it’s impact! Now let’s see my views on Butter…

Lyrics…

[Verse 1: Jung Kook & V]
Smooth like butter
Like a criminal undercover
Gon’ pop like trouble
Breakin’ into your heart like that (Ooh)
Cool shade stunner
Yeah, I owe it all to my mother
Hot like summer
Yeah, I’m makin’ you sweat like that
Break it down

[Pre-Chorus: Jin & RM]
Oh, when I look in the mirror
I’ll melt your heart into two
I got that superstar glow so (Ooh)
Do the boogie like

[Chorus: Jung Kook, Jimin & V]
Side step, right, left to my beat
High like the moon, rock with me, baby
Know that I got that heat
Let me show you ’cause talk is cheap
Side step, right, left to my beat
Get it, let it roll

[Verse 2: Jung Kook, V, Jin & SUGA]
Smooth like butter
Pull you in like no other
Don’t need no Usher
To remind me you got it bad
Ain’t no other
That can sweep you up like a robber
Straight up, I got ya
Makin’ you fall like that
Break it down

[Pre-Chorus: Jimin & RM]
Oh, when I look in the mirror
I’ll melt your heart into two
I got that superstar glow so (Ooh)
Do the boogie like

[Chorus: Jimin, Jin & Jung Kook]
Side step, right, left to my beat
High like the moon, rock with me, baby
Know that I got that heat
Let me show you ’cause talk is cheap
Side step, right, left to my beat
Get it, let it roll

[Post-Chorus: Jimin]
Get it, let it roll
Get it, let it roll

[Verse 3: SUGA & RM]
Ice on my wrist, I’m the nice guy
Got the right body and the right mind
Rollin’ up to party, got the right vibe
Smooth like (Butter), hate us (Love us)
Fresh boy pull up and we lay low
All the playas get movin’ when the bass low
Got ARMY right behind us when we say so
Let’s go

[Chorus: V, Jin, Jung Kook & Jimin]
Side step, right, left to my beat (Right, left to my beat)
High like the moon, rock with me, baby
Know that I got that heat
Let me show you ’cause talk is cheap (You know that talk is cheap)
Side step, right, left to my beat
Get it, let it roll

[Post-Chorus: j-hope, RM, j-hope & RM, Jung Kook]
Smooth like (Butter), cool shade (Stunner)
And you know we don’t stop
Hot like (Summer), ain’t no (Bummer)
You be like oh, my God
We gon’ make you rock and you say (Yeah)
We gon’ make you bounce and you say (Yeah)
Hotter? Sweeter! Cooler? Butter!
Get it, let it roll

My opinion…

⭐ 4.9 out of 5

This song is just…. fantastic!!! The whole world gave and still giving Dynamite so much love, so I’m sure Butter is gonna smash the charts. It’s a perfect Summer song, reflected on being together for the last eight years as a group.

Lyrics mean a lot to me when it comes to a song. I can’t say Butter has very deep lyrics but you know, who cares about lyrics when the whole song is so addictive. And it absolutely has better lyrics than other summer songs, so I’m loving it a lot. I love the lyrics of Verse 3 and they again won ARMYs heart by mentioning them in it…

[Verse 3: SUGA & RM]
Ice on my wrist, I’m the nice guy
Got the right body and the right mind
Rollin’ up to party, got the right vibe
Smooth like (Butter), hate us (Love us)
Fresh boy pull up and we lay low
All the playas get movin’ when the bass low
Got ARMY right behind us when we say so
Let’s go

And also- GET IT! LET IT ROLL!!!

Then I really like the music video! It’s 11:07 AM right now I’m writing this post, Butter Official MV has reached 120+ million views on YouTube, and I’ve watched it at least 10 times on TV just today. It’s everywhere! Choreography is fun and not so hard, and that’s what I like about a summer anthem.

The whole world is going through a hard time, especially in India, the situation is going out of control. And I think Butter is what I needed to light up my mood. It’s a must-listen! I’m dancing while typing! I can’t wait for tomorrow, as they will be performing it on BBMAs, I’m sure it’s gonna be awesome!

Have you listened to Butter? What are your views on it?
