@njjyjhjmtjk7 a comment they might consider it or at least play it as a surprise song again!

[Pat ᴮᴱ⁷ 𝑩𝑻𝑺 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓 @pat_army]

@njjyjhjmtjk7 Plus! I really think the fact that it now has been performed at all is good for all of us!

Before the chances of it ever being performed were close to 0, I'm sure they had no plan to.
But now that they've seen with their own eyes how much we love it and not just from a survey or

@ParkLY23 they also aren't marked as part of a playlist, when all other versions are in that playlist and on PC they always have a different cover so I'm pretty sure they are extra versions!

[Pat ᴮᴱ⁷ 𝑩𝑻𝑺 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓 @pat_army]

@ParkLY23 I think technically there are two more versions! If you go directly through the links bighit posted there are two more single versions! On mobile in the playlists they look the same as the others but if you edit a playlist you see the different cover

Okay so if it's that normal surely they won't filter any of our streams even if we loop, right? 🙃

@bts_bighit @STATIONHEAD Please make listening parties for European ARMYs as well 🥺🙏🏻

[Pat ᴮᴱ⁷ 𝑩𝑻𝑺 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓 @pat_army]

I really don't understand why there is never even a single listening party that is at an accessible time for European ARMYs...

Even for Asian ARMYs it's probably not that accessible if it's in the morning on a weekday!

It really is exclusively directed American ARMYs...

A few thoughts on the NORMAL MV:

I feel like it touches heavily on the 'dopamine' aspect mentioned in the lyrics

The reference to Greek or Roman orgias that were supposed to put you in a state of ecstasy and somewhat remove you from the real world is a very

@mhereonlyforbts I think they're similarly unhappy 😅

[Pat ᴮᴱ⁷ 𝑩𝑻𝑺 𝒚𝒆𝒂𝒓 @pat_army]

Orgias are characterised by unrestrained excess in any form, bringing everything to the extreme so it's a very fitting visualisation for the exceptional life they're living that brings them so many dopamine highs but probably also a lot of crashes

interesting representation of 'not normal'

They're basically showing two extreme ends of the spectrum the dopamine high of the orgy-like party and then the crash after

Tbh didn't expect the concept of NORMAL to be inspired by orgies but it does make sense!
