BTS’ discography is so vast and filled with such gems that even the members sometimes forget about some truly remarkable songs they released years ago. Ask them during a livestream, and you might catch them looking confused. We love their live performances of many title tracks and B-sides, but there are still some B-sides that haven’t been performed, or only got a single stage.
Whether it’s a hidden track or a fan-favorite B-side, let’s be honest, we’re all hoping BTS performs these songs live one day. Here are 7 BTS B-sides that deserve more love on stage.
“Louder Than Bombs” (Map of The Soul: 7)
This emotional track is a fan favorite, despite never having a live stage. In a fan survey, “Louder Than Bombs” was the most requested song for BTS to perform. The members were surprised by the result, but it proves just how much this haunting, introspective song resonates with fans.
“Paradise” (Love Yourself: Tear)
A comfort track for anyone dealing with burnout or feeling directionless. During a livestream, Jungkook was asked to sing it, but he blanked for a second until the Korean title jogged his memory. Even the members forget how good this one is. A live version would be incredible.
“Sea” (Love Yourself: Her)
Since it was a hidden track, “Sea” isn’t on streaming platforms, but it’s a lyrical masterpiece. Soft, symbolic, and emotional, it talks about dreams and emptiness in a way few songs do. If you haven’t heard it yet, go find it. It’s worth the search.
“Heartbeat” (BTS World OST)
During the same livestream where Jungkook forgot about “Paradise”, he also rediscovered this gem. It feels like the soundtrack to an emotional movie scene and deserves way more attention than it gets. A live performance would be epic.
“Could You Turn Off Your Phone” (Skool Luv Affair)
With its sassy lyrics and fun beat, this track gives a clever critique of modern phone obsession. It’s catchy, real, and makes you smile. Honestly, we could use this energy on stage again.
“134340” (Love Yourself: Tear)
Named after Pluto’s asteroid number, this funky track compares love to being demoted from planet status. It’s witty, vibey, and incredibly creative. BTS performed it at the 5th Muster, but it definitely deserves a comeback stage.
“Love Maze” (Love Yourself: Tear)
Chill, groovy, and heartfelt, “Love Maze” talks about trusting love even when the world doubts you. With smooth harmonies and a soft rap-vocal blend, it’s one of those tracks that feels like a warm hug. More stages, please!
There are plenty more hidden gems in BTS’s catalog. Which one do you think needs a live stage next?
