Who knew saving a life could come with a beat drop?

The American Heart Association (AHA) has officially dubbed a track by global superstars BTS as a “lifesaving beat”—and yes, it’s exactly as cool (and oddly specific) as it sounds.

According to the AHA’s March 22 post, the group’s song “One More Night” clocks in at 117 beats per minute—aka the sweet spot for performing hands-only CPR.

Hands-only CPR, for the uninitiated, skips the rescue breaths and focuses solely on chest compressions—fast, steady, and ideally somewhere between 100 to 120 beats per minute.

That’s where music comes in clutch.

Studies, including those cited by the American Red Cross, show that keeping time with a song can help maintain the right pace when every second counts.

And BTS isn’t stopping at just one track. Their song “Body to Body” also makes the cut, hitting a neat 120 BPM—basically CPR perfection.

They’re not unique on this.

AHA’s unofficial life-saving playlist also includes some golden oldies like “Stayin’ Alive” by the Bee Gees (the OG of CPR soundtracks), “Ready, Steady, Go!” by Harry Styles and “Gonna Get This” from Hannah Montana.

“One More Night,” is part of BTS’s newly released album “Arirang,” their first full-group drop in nearly four years since “Proof” (2022).

So next time you’re curating your playlist, maybe throw in a few “just in case” tracks. Because your bias might also double as your lifesaver.
