After releasing their chart-topping single “Butter,†BTS is back with their newest song of the summer, “Permission to Dance,†along with a music video filled with pure joy and cowboy hats. The track name-checks Elton John before the chorus, in which the boys vow to “Live just like we’re golden/ And roll in like we’re dancing fools.†The video features BTS dancing in front of a billboard that reads “The Wait is Over,†as well as a bunch of mask-wearing regular citizens gleefully ripping off their PPE — a joyful and optimistic vision of our current Hot Vax summer. “Permission to Dance,†which is the band’s third English-language release, was co-written by Ed Sheeran, Steve Mac, Jenna Andrews, and Snow Patrol’s Johnny McDaid.
