So GOT7 revealed in an IG live the other day that they originally planned on releasing the song Tidal Wave on their most recent Winter Heptagon album as the title track. Python was co-written and produced by BamBam, and Tidal Wave was also co-produced by him.
According to the members, Tidal Wave was a song they had planned to release as a single over a year ago but decided to wait so that they would be able to come back to fans with an album. While preparing for the comeback, out of nowhere, Yugyeom (their maknae) suggested that Python should be the title track and Jinyoung agreed. The group votes by majority on title tracks and songs that make their albums, so they held a revote between Python and Tidal Wave and Python won. Their leader Jay B, said he likes Python but thinks Tidal Wave is really good and since they planned to release it as a single a while ago, he thought it was a waste to have it as a b-side on the album.
Anyways, I love Python as a title track but Tidal Wave is also one of my absolute favorites from the album, so I’m curious to hear what others (both fans and nonfans) think.
Do you think they made the right choice? Obviously Python is a hit but do you think Tidal Wave would have been a great title song as well? Should they have at least released Tidal Wave as a single, pre-release, or have had double title tracks for this comeback?
For reference, here is the Python MV for those who haven’t heard it and this is Tidal Wave— it’s a full English song.
