The lyrics to BTOB's song Star speaks about the singer's admiration for someone who, to them, is almost unattainable. The person seems too perfect, too beautiful, and too distant to be approached, yet the singer wishes to be the one to love them. They watch the stars twinkle in the night sky with this person, but can't help feeling like their own light pales in comparison. However, the chorus speaks of the singer's promise to be the person's star, shining brightly for them always. They yearn to have the chance to be with them, to make memories, and to be someone they can rely on.
The song speaks of the hope and the butterfly feelings of a new crush, yet also the insecurity and hesitation that comes with it. The singer is single-minded in their love for the person, willing to wait for them, to work hard to be someone they can rely on, and to truly love the person for who they are. The song speaks of the possibility of reaching this love, but also the risk of the person never being within reach.

I just realized that there's no difference when I'm listening to it in Spotify and when they sang it live. BTOB rocks! You guys are so talented.

This song would still place in hit lists in 2021. Seeing the other BTOB boys in Kingdom makes me miss their performances together even more.

Btob has sub vocals that can go up against other groups' main vocals. Thats how good they are. Its like youll have a hard time figuring out who the main vocal is in this group ..even the rappers can sing especially minhyuk. And the subvocals arent just "fillers" (put in the group for their visuals and have weak vocals) " and say that theyre "vocals"...btob can really sing
Soyoung Kim
Your profile is just on another level. I love it 😂😂
