It’s just been a few hours since Jungkook’s collaborative dance video with Usher for the song – Standing Next To You is out. In such a short time, the music video has amazed more than 3.4 million viewers on YouTube. While the BTS maknae is serving in the military, his Kookies are already enjoying his marvelous performance. We just don’t get bored, and it never gets old.
The song “Standing Next To You” was released on 3 November 2023. It’s a part, more precisely, the third single of Jungkook’s debut album – Golden. No doubt, his groundbreaking, energetic dance performance, which resembles the late Michael Jackson, has notably caught the attention of the ARMYs. It also made a top entry on the UK Singles Chart.
To the newbies, Usher is a famous American singer hailing from Dallas. Some of his all-time hit musical works are – Confessions, There Goes My Baby, Trading Places, Don’t Waste My Time, etc. Otherwise, if you are already a big-time fan, which is your favorite work from Usher’s playlist?
Just like the original one, Jungkook and Usher’s collaborative video for the remix version also stood out well. The choreography was collaborative enough, alongside a group of skilled dancers. However, it didn’t come up like that suddenly. Previously, the singers teased a TikTok clip together, which made fans very much excited.
Fans Are Going Crazy About Jungkook And Usher’s Standing Next To You Performance
Not only Jungkook but also Usher’s dance performance in the “Standing Next To You” remix video was equally appreciated.
Starting the discussion with the aforementioned Tiktok clip, we saw the BTS idol and Usher dancing together in the latter’s 2004 song- “Yeah!” It was probably shot at an abandoned warehouse. While posting it, JungKook added #StayTuned, which was more of a hint about their collaboration.
This remix version has both of their vocals, and it’s outstanding in one word. Even though their song was out at the beginning of this month, the video was released on 15 December 2023 at 2:00 pm KST. For the Indians, it was around 10:30 am. Since then, fans have been unable to keep calm.
The first half of the video featured Jungkook and his dance team performing. Later, with his moves, the idol was directed to a side where Usher was waiting for his dance step to start. Later, the two danced and sang together until the very end. In other words, the audience enjoyed how the transition was made from Jungkook to Usher and then back to them together—hats off to Usher’s footwork.
Following the release, fans took the discussion of Jungkook and Usher’s collaboration on social media, praising both. One fan wrote, “Jungkook is THE POP BOY, and he looks 10x hotter, and I never knew Usher could dance this well. I’M SHOCKED THIS IS SO GOOD.” Another fan commented, “Both slay! Jungkook is the best vocalist and dancer with explosive expression. Usher is so good with his moves and grooves! Smooth like butter. Their vocal blends so well.”
As Jungkook has now enlisted in the mandatory military service, Kookies are all waiting for his return in 2025. Following his collaboration with Usher, vibing together so well, we are hopeful that the two will work together again. It will surely be another hit. Let’s hope for the best. How much did you like the “Standing Next To You” remix version made with Usher?
