I interpreted “double knot” to be a symbol of confidence and security within a life of constant hustle. You double knot your laces so they don’t come loose and you won’t trip and fall. You’re able to run as you please, far and fast. 3RACHA also has a song called Double Knot and the lyrics super duper double down on that idea. It’s a recurring symbol for them I love Henry’s reactions so I’m glad he could join for this one!
I feel like with straykids the term "double knot" is even more special because it takes me back to when they were still in the survival show..... For an important performance the members stretched, warmed up and Bang Chan, their leader, reminded all of them to double knot their shoelaces, before slaying that performance. And for them to bring that back, use that as a symbolism to chase one's dreams, and make a song out of it. That's just pure talent and a great use of their influence as artists.
@@xylypotatohead3947 ohmygod can you BTS, etc stans just shut up for a second about your idols?? for the love of god can't you allow other people to praise stray kids and other groups for once without inserting BTS, etc anywhere?? because honestly their rapline is actually average and you're just hyping them up 'coz they're famous (not denying that). bash me all you want. i said what I said.
@@gigimoon6352 and could people like you for once be kind and see that what I meant was that the best of any category is up to taste and there is only one of the best at a certain point? Learn how to voice your opinions kindly and have a nice day no need to be so offended.
I totally agree with you ! This type of sound is pretty common in kpop but stray kids makes it their own and therefore it doesn’t feel like you’ve already listened to the song a hundred times
I feel like this will be a stupid question but is there any way that we could get Charlotte to react to this? I love seeing her fangirl over stray kids it's so fun to see.
I’ve been asking her. But she says that she may not be free to do any film session until late Jan and I don’t want her to have to avoid one of fav groups till then ;-;
umu: * creates a whole ass list of why she loves double knot, cites references from other skz songs, notes what musical instrument is played and when * umu: hey what did you think of double knot? henry: i thought it was pretty sick.
Yo I think Chan mentioned you guys in his recent Vlive. He was saying that he recently watched classical musicians react to their Music and never had so much fun watching reactions (Chan's room ep. 41 at 24:30min)
OOH HENRY! Also, this digital single dropped this week and Stray Kids already announced preorders for their next comeback in November. Productivity kings
Double Knot was originally a completely different song released by 3RACHA!! SKZ also double knotted their shoelaces right before they murdered the YG/JYP dance battle, so there's already a big significance of Double Knot to Stays. I've heard a lot of people saying that this song feels a lot like a transition from Side Effects to something else, so Double Knot could be SKZ preparing for anything. But the original 3RACHA song used Double Knot as a way to tell who was really working hard, so it could play into that as well.
For me, "double knot" is tying your shoelaces = get ready and just Go, do whatever you want to do. In 3Racha, I think it is more about get ready and run/fight, stop procrastinating. Here, it is more about get rid of the worries, and be free, go anywhere you want to go.
Oh wow. I just repeatedly watched your Feel Special reaction and after that, I searched for a Double Knot reaction and here it is, 2 mins ago. Time to hit the subscribe button.
OMG UMU CHAN NOTICED UUUU 😭💜💜💜💜💜 he just said in his vlive that he saw a video of classical musicians react to their song and he was so happy about it !!!
Double Knot and Astronaut ( released on Nov 09 ) are Stray Kids Singles ( maybe its B side songs that usually have MV performance or street version after album released, but they release it first now ) that will be included in Stray Kids Cle3 Mini Album released on Nov 25 :-)
Re: the title "Double Knot" In the first verse, the lyrics say "Wherever the steps take me, I'm runnin'. Retie my loose shoelaces, movin'" and in the chorus they say "Tie harder, double knot". The song is about working hard to achieve your dreams and not letting anything stop you. You double knot your shoes so that the laces don't come undone while you're walking or running. I you don't double-knot your laces, they may come loose and trip you up. So the "double knot" line is basically them saying, we're ready, we're prepared, we're being extra careful, we're not going to let anything slow us down during this long race towards our dreams. I would expect them to say "Double knot, double knot!" in the chorus. But they don't. Apparently the line is "da da da da, da da da!" (?) I like to sing it as "da-double knot, double knot" though. 😜
@@moonlightboyz6410 ooooohhhhh I honestly couldn't tell you. It was a while back. It was an episode of Chan's Room. He briefly mentioned seeing a video of classical musicians reacting to... I think Side Effects.
I always love your reactions to SKZ and they’re hilarious. 🤣 I find it interesting that you said that Chan at 2:39 was unison with the bass line because he actually is the only who doesn’t sing the “da dadada” part as it’s heard (he stays on the last note of the da dadada as opposed to moving up a second like the instrumental and the other singers who sing that part do). It took me a few times listening to it to pick up on that though lol Also Henry’s reactions kill me because they’re the exact same reactions I had when I first watched the video 🤣
I really like this song because it has that CL's Hello Bitches sound from the start and i didn't notice when it stopped and that 4minute's Hate chorus is really good.
blind for love is on the will not react list, however I didn't see Lit on the will react OR will not react, so I wonder if they plan to do anything with it at all
Umu since you guys are music students, I have a band for you to react to, Band-Maid. They are a Japanese Rock band with 5 members, they play their instruments and write their songs. They all are highly skilled, both technically and musically. There is a drummer, bass, lead guitar, rhythm guitar and vocalist. Oh, and they are female, selling out concerts in Europe and the US. Please, get a drummer, vocalist, and a string player as your reactors and have at it. Puzzle live is a great staring point.
no shit sherlock 😂 Stray Kids are unmatched when it comes to rap for groups in the industry.. I mean, they aren't the only good rappers, but they tend to bring it harder than most.. **edits** i mean.. it's subjective tho, please dont hate if ya read this 💕💕 everyone's faves bring it hard 😭❤ that's why im always crushed at comeback time
I’m very curious as to what Kevin thinks about this one. The beat (like at 3:59) is reminding me of trap songs circa 2012 like baauer, flosstrdamus, rl grime stuff.
thought you might want to know that the leader of stray kids said in a vlive that he watched a video where classical musicians react to double knot and i’m pretty sure you’re the only ones who’ve done that(he didn’t name any channel), just so you know lol!
Hi! I always love your reactions because you guys teach me so much! This is a question for Umu! I am not here for any sort of fight because I understand that everyone has their own opinions. I am just curious: why do you think Stray Kids have the best rappers in the industry? In my opinion, Nct's rappers are very exceptional too. (Sorry if I offend anyone). I was just wondering what your reasons are, and I will really appreciate your opinion because you are a music student and obviously has much better understanding in this field than I do. Thank you!
hello! can you react to stray kids’ song voices? as you may have heard, woojin unfortunately left the group due to personal reasons, and voices is such an important song to the fandom, as the lyrics are so meaningful, and woojins *voice* is what really makes that specific song feel complete and full. without him in the song, it really wouldn’t have been the masterpiece it is now. and now without him in the group, my heart hurts to say this but stray kids really won’t be the same. if you could react to voices that would be the best, thank you!
Is double knot is an Australian school kid thing? Did other countries get told to do that? Like before running, tie your laces and double knot just in case
This song gave me an old school urban hip hop vibe. Change the members to Wu Tang riding a vintage Plymouth sedan and lyrics in English, it’d be fitting. I like how SKZ carves out a unique sound that’s kpop but also lots of other things as well. Their songs all feel genuine and organic.
Yo, don't mean to freak you out but Bang Chan of SKZ just shouted out your channel on his Vlive. He mentioned 'that channel that has classical musicians react to DAY6 songs' which I assume is you. Just thought I'd let you know that he's probably watched these videos 😉
Double knot means that they gotta tie their shoes extra tight so that when they kick the music industry’s ass their shoes don’t fly away.
lmao 😭😭😭😭
What is this🤣🤣

쥬디 Double Knot choreo has alot double knot symbolism too
And Felix telling us to double knot our shoelaces in pops in seoul

"stray kids are the best rapper in industry"
Umu 2k19
Yeah changbin,hyunjin,Han,Felix. Best in the 4th gen for sure. They also have the largest rap line as well I believe other than NCT.
💯
and that's on PERIODT
PERIODT.
P E R I O D T .
“In my opinion Stray Kids are the best rappers in the industry” YES UMU SPITTING STRAIGHT FACTS, AN INTELLECTUAL

In the 4th Generation one of the best
But Big Bang and BTS and Soyeon exist so one of the best for sure but the best is up to taste

25th Nov = Cle Levanter
Stray Kids is the most productive group ever
Cancelled,Woojin left the group 😭
:(
when he thought you meant a musical key I CAN'T SJSKK
Actually a music key is also called "clé" in french so he's technically not wrong 😂😂
I totally agree with you ! This type of sound is pretty common in kpop but stray kids makes it their own and therefore it doesn’t feel like you’ve already listened to the song a hundred times
Actually "clé" also has that musical meaning in French :)
Cool - I didn't knew that. It's also the same in German.
Clef
@@9S0dX two spellings of the same word.
Doesn’t clé mean key though?
@@emily8226 Clé/clef means "key", both as the object that goes into a lock, and as the musical term.

I love the sound so much. It’s hits you hard and I feel hyped just by listening to it

One thing you missed is that at 2:39 and 3:50, Chan is actually singing in 7ths with the bassline, not always octaves.
your explanation of the genre and sound of the song was amazing, thank you
Oh wow. I just repeatedly watched your Feel Special reaction and after that, I searched for a Double Knot reaction and here it is, 2 mins ago. Time to hit the subscribe button.
I bopping my head exactly the same when the chorus drop... the beat is sick!!!
OMG UMU CHAN NOTICED UUUU 😭💜💜💜💜💜 he just said in his vlive that he saw a video of classical musicians react to their song and he was so happy about it !!!
When i watch umu reaction, i also make sure that chuu fan art is still hanging there. Then i continue it again
anyone else notice how the 'hey' shouted near the end is used at least in one other title track of stray kids? (miroh or side effects, i think)
Ava T yup its on side effects i guess
I think it’s Chan. He or even Han use “Hey” in similar pitches and what not as different textures in the background of many of their songs.
3racha have their own little recorded adlibs that they like to sprinkle in songs here and there. its neat

Anyone noticed that the Dadada sound like Side Effects ?
Now that you pointed it out i kinda have to agree lol
Also a bit of awkward silence....
