TOMORROW BY TOGETHER - “THE NAME CHAPTER: FREEFALL” ALBUM LISTENING PARTY

Published: January 15th 2024, 8:00:07 pm

Hiya!

Happy New Year!! We're starting off strong with a little bit of TXT. Now ima be frank - we didn't do as much commentary on this album listen because ... we were too busy dancing!! 

Literally, I was laughing SO HARD during this edit because we were basically jamming along the entire time! There's just something about their music, it's so good! Surprising. Twist and turns. And rock. And unexpected r&b. And then a club hit. And heartfelt ballads for MOAs. And then more jams!! 

Literally, just us dancing and jamming and air drumming and (as Allison would call it) "white girl dancing" - and LOTS of singing along. I mean, can you blame us?? 

We did a few TXT reactions awhile back and so it's nice to already be fans of certain songs. So that now we can enjoy their special performances at Lolla and the VMAs and at Studio Choom. It's kind of nice doing the album listen this way! 

I'm so glad we decided to do this one. It was in the voting poll awhile back and came straggling behind the others. But I still wanted to give it a chance because honestly, I'm a fan! 

Anyways, enjoy the vid!! And Happy MLK Day!

뛰어갈 수 없음 걸어
If you can’t run, then walk

Today we will survive

걸어갈 수 없음 기어
If you can’t walk, then crawl

기어서라도 gear up [gieoseolado gear up]
Even if you have to crawl, gear up

겨눠 총! 조준! 발사!
Ready! Aim! Fire!

- "Not Today" by BTS

Inspired by one of the famous quotes by Martin Luther King Jr., “If you can’t fly, then run. If you can’t run, then walk. If you can’t walk, then crawl. But whatever you do, you have to keep moving forward.” 

I hope today serves as a reminder to keep pressing forward, no matter what. And that we find strength from leaning on each other, so that we can work towards a better world. 

💜💜
