Four seasons of the TV show were added to Netflix in March 2021 and has appeared in the Netflix "Top 10" trending titles. These appearances resulted in hysteria amongst their fans and in the media, followed by BTR receiving 10+ million streams in 2020 alone. This was soon followed by a socially distant performance of an acoustic version of their smash hit, "Worldwide". In 2020, in an effort to bring joy to their fans during quarantine, the members of Big Time Rush decided to appear together to send a message of love and togetherness. As the show concluded in July 2013 and after four years of recording music and touring as a band, they went their separate ways but remained close through the years. The show was a huge success and later, Carlos, Kendall, James, and Logan came to life as a band off the screen releasing three full length albums and performing across the globe. Big Time Rush is probably testing out a new style, although Fall is a bump in its discography, I’m sure more bangers are to come.Big Time Rush became an overnight sensation in November 2009 when the TV show of the same name launched on Nickelodeon. I’ve noticed when musical groups release new projects, it can feel disconnected. No Idea is an amazing love song and shows the potential Big Time Rush has whether or not the group is connected to a Nickelodeon show. In 2011, the band released its sophomore album, Elevate with the song, No Idea. Their past work has explored how impressive the music can be. īig Time Rush is capable of more and we’ve heard it. I don’t find myself humming the song during the day, nor have I planned to add it to the playlist I listen to daily. I have listened to Fall a total of six times and I couldn’t get into it. Of course, Big Time Rush looked so handsome, but the video was dull. There were a variety of fish-eye lens shots that reminded me of NSYNC’s Bye Bye Bye music video. The video was shot in a documentary format with outtakes of the group hanging out during a photoshoot. But, art is objective, so I won’t pry on that.įall’ s music video was also released on June 10. The cover art of Big Time Rush cropped out in black and white on a purple background is distracting. The visual aesthetic for Fall was no better. PenaVega also gets the job done with the bridge, “I don’t understand it, I’m no longer standin’ / It’s a long, long way down / I don’t understand it, I’m no longer standin’ / Hey, you got me fallin’ for ya.” That’s the only part that sticks in my mind and it’s so unfortunate that it is so late in the track. It’s so nice to hear all the vocals from each member of the band sing all together. In the group’s previous work, Schmidt and Maslow would sing the majority of Big Time Rush’s songs. Big Time Rush successfully harmonizes together singing, “Ooh, I only wanna fall, fall, fall for you.” Over the years, the group’s vocals matured. The saving grace of the newest track is the chorus. Fall’ s lyrics sound lazy as if it was a last-minute presentation put together before the deadline. However, Boyfriend is an all-time classic and the references felt familiar at its time of release. Fall teleported me back to a time when chevron prints were trendy and I don’t want to relive that.īig Time Rush loves to use pop culture references in its music like mentioning “Slumdog Millionaire” and “Twilight” in 2010’s Boyfriend. The lyrics felt immature when the song opened with Maslow singing, “There you go / She movin’ like a smooth criminal.” In the second verse, Henderson sings, “She brings out the flavor, no MSG / Selling out the Garden, she a V.I.P.” These lyrics feel dated as if it was a ripoff of MKTO’s Classic from 2013. However, Fall is a track I hope to be never serenaded with. As a big-time Big Time Rush fan, I’ve noticed the band has one style of music: mushy gushy love songs making the listener feel like the song is about them. The group consisting of Kendall Schmidt, Logan Henderson, James Maslow, and Carlos PenaVega fell short with its third song since 2013. That’s exactly how I felt with Big Time Rush’s latest song release, Fall. I’ve always been told to never get my hopes up because I’ll be disappointed.
