BTS’s Jungkook Discusses The Meaning Of “Stay” And Its Unique Unit
At the BTS Global Press Conference “BE”, Jungkook discussed the seventh track on BTS‘s new BE album, “Stay”.
“Stay” is a bright, energetic track co-written by its three performers (Jungkook, Jin, and RM) and Arston, a Belarusian DJ.
Together this vocal-rap unit created a brand new listening experience for fans.
It’s a unit song with me, RM, and Jin. So, this unit is probably the first time we’re doing this. I think it created a song with a very unique color that we haven’t seen before. “Stay” is kind of a song that is fun but also very emotional.
— Jungkook
In addition to “Stay’s” sound, Jungkook also explained what the song means. Like the rest of BE‘s tracks, it was partly inspired by the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic.
So, what does this song mean? I think we are far apart physically, but we always stay together. That’s the message that I wanted to put into this song, that we wanted to put into this song. It’s a fun song, so I hope you look forward to it.
— Jungkook
“Stay” is a beautiful reminder that although BTS and ARMY can’t meet in person right now, they are, and will always, be together. Listen to it here:
