BTS’s V, fresh off the release of his solo project, has shared his visit to South Korea’s Tiny Desk. Backed by a crew of stellar instrumentalists and vocalists, the jazz-loving member of the septet reimagined three cuts off of Layover. Watch the full episode below.

Filmed in Seoul, V enlisted a drummer, backup vocalists, a saxophone player, a keyboardist, and a handful of other players (most of whom flew in from the US) to round out the backing band of his dreams. They kicked things off with the album’s pre-release single, “Love Me Again,” and followed it up with an extra dreamy live arrangement of the focus track, Slow Dancing after V dedicated some time to introducing the members of the band. (“Slow Dancing” wisely then built in ample time for a saxophone solo.)

V slowed things down for the debut live performance of his recent single “Love Me Again,” an R&b and jazz-influenced record that appears on his full-length solo album Layover. Accompanied by four backing vocalists, the BTS member performed the song on a special episode of Naver’s Npop show, where he also delivered live renditions of “Rainy Days” and “Slow Dancing.”

Each performance was set against a unique backdrop, reflecting the song’s tone. For “Love Me Again,” the artist, born Kim Taehyung, stood among framed photographs in an orange-hued art gallery setting.

Song Name – Slow Dancing

Singer – V Check out Slow Dancing Song Lyrics by BTS V It’s about time we get it straight

Gimme a minute if it ain’t too late

It sounds about right

This can’t be forced, babe

It shouldn’t feel like this

Hurts too much already

Stay with me ’til the end of the day

Maybe we

Could be

Slow dancing

Until the morning

We could be romancing

The night away

Turnin’ me up and back off like this

What do you want? Do you not like it?

Stop teasin’ me, girl

Now, you made me leave my heart out here

Step on me and I’ll lift you up

Find someone new again

We were so much alike

Now we’re just distant neighbors

Maybe we

Could be

Slow dancing

Until the morning

We could be romancing

The night away...
