No. 1 in the world on the US Billboard “Hot Trending Songs”!
BE:FIRST, a seven-member dance and vocal group born from the audition “THE FIRST” sponsored by SKY-HI, released their debut song “Gifted.”
Finally won first place on the time chart (as of November 22nd)!
The “Hot Trending Songs” chart is a new chart provided by Twitter and first released on October 22 by US Billboard sponsored by Remy Martin.
“Hot Trending Songs” highlights topics such as new releases, award shows, festival highlights, and musical retrospectives, and is unique in that it tracks the songs people are talking about rather than what they are listening to.
Last week, it was announced that BE:FIRST’s debut song “Gifted.” was ranked 4th on the 24-hour chart.
In addition, “Gifted.” also ranked 1st on the Billboard JAPAN comprehensive song chart JAPAN HOT100 in Japan, and also recorded 2nd place for the second week announced last week.
Currently, the number of streams has exceeded 25 million times, and YouTube-related videos such as MVs and live performances have exceeded 14 million times in total.
The Meaning of “Gifted.”
About the title track “Gifted.”, SKY-HI, the representative of their agency BMSG, said, “Gifted., which has a title meaning ‘having a natural talent”, is the BE:FIRST member.
In addition to the strong attitude of the members saying “We are gifted”, it also contains the message “Everyone born is gifted”.
In addition, the number of characters in the songs “Be Free”, “Move On”, and “Shining One” that have been announced so far match the number of members who performed each song on the audition program “THE FIRST” where BE:FIRST was born.
“By adding a dot to ‘Gifted.’, it became 7 characters, and it means that BE:FIRST has been completed with 7 members and is ready to go out into the world.
This is a culmination and “the start of a new story.”
“Kick Start” and “First Step”
The CD includes two songs, “Kick Start” and “First Step”.
The single will be released in a total of 4 formats, and it has also been revealed that 2 of the 3 DVD versions will contain the newly filmed “THE FIRST #21”.
This Kick Start lyric video is also heartwarming because it shows the audition scenery, the practice that has been accumulated so far, and the mischievous daily life.
The “Kick Start” song track was prepared by SKY-HI, but the lyrics, melody lines, and choreography were written by the BE:FIRST members themselves, giving us a glimpse of their qualities as creators.
Until now, they have continued to face music seriously, and released a track as a break in the audition “THE FIRST”.
We look forward to seeing BE:FIRST, make even greater strides in the future.
