Namjoon about Like Animalsπ
π¨: Like Animals..
π¨: This was another song that originally came out of the pre-sessions, and it was actually a really sexual song at first. The lyrics were kind of likeβ¦ you know? βIf you wanna be animals, baby we can be animalsβ¦β
π¨: And then what was the next line again? Something like βliving in pain is beautifulβ maybe? It had this whole sadism-masochism kind of vibe β basically a song about becoming wild like animals together.
π¨: But we felt that releasing something overtly sexual wasnβt really the right timing for us right now, so we changed it into a song more about drawing out instinct and raw emotion instead.
π¨: Though honestly, I do think going fully sexual with it couldβve worked too. The sound itself already has this naturally sexy atmosphere to it. I personally really love βLike Animals.β
π¨: I really like psychedelic music, and this was a style weβd never tried before. Artemas helped a lot with that kind of sound too. We felt like we needed sounds like this to move forward and evolve. We canβt just keep doing the same things weβve always done. Thatβs probably what we were thinking.
π¨: But at the same time, performing βAttack on Bangtanβ again today also felt really good. Likeβ¦ wow, this is genuinely exciting. Thereβs really something romantic about our team. I think thatβs what I felt.
