Have you ever heard a song that tells a story? Though it is not as direct, through tone, expressions, and subtle phrases, a story is told. In “Beautiful Strangers,” the TXT members tell a breathtaking tale, emphasizing that no matter what happens, they do it all for love. Throughout the song, the members sing with falsettos, and the tone is higher during the verses. During the chorus, that raspy, angsty tone shines, and from there we get to hear this passion, as if they were passionate about the one they love. The story continues, and as the song progresses, everything intensifies. You can hear more angst in their voice, as the verses are sung with more strength. The TXT members are phenomenal singers; throughout the song, you can hear them harmonizing with one another, with vocals overlapping smoothly and seamless runs.
In the music video, the members face numerous trials and tribulations. There are high-speed chases, fights, and moments when the members just look defeated. Adding to the plot of the story, you can tell that the members all face troubles in their lives, but the moment they come together, it's like the pieces all come into place. It’s a great music video that will make you sit back and think, and that’s always been an interesting concept in TXT videos. Something else that stands out in this comeback is the choreography. They are excellent dancers, and in this comeback, they truly incorporated that angsty concept into the song. The fast-paced footwork, striking arm movements, and quick yet smooth transitions from one placement to another make this a signature TXT dance. A bonus is that member Yeonjun contributed to the creation of the choreography, making this another dance Moas can hold dear to their hearts.
There is truly a song for everyone on this album. The members sound amazing, and from one listen, you will be hooked. So, check out The Star Chapter: TOGETHER for another unforgettable TXT album.
