What this video doesn't show, is that even after it cuts off, the crowd was still singing for over 10 more minutes after the members walked off the stage

[@ONvoyage868]

WOT?! wow, the crowd has so much respect for their last live. X 4ever!

[@switchboardrevelry4275]

That was from their farewell tour. That's why it was super emotional. They have some kick-ass fast songs as well. Kurenai is a good one. Silent Jealousy is awesome. Yoshiki, the drummer/pianist also has a classical music career, and writes and composes for Television and Movies, runs a fashion line, a jewelry line, as well as writing the lyrics and music for X-Japan.

[@DarthYis]

Bro, this band is epic. Gene Simmons himself said this: If these guys was born in USA, X-japan would be the bigger heavy metal band of the earth. You have to try some heavy stuff like kurenai or art of life. Please 😬

R.I.P hide :( (for Alex, hide is the guy with the pink hair, and neon colored clothes, he died shortly after the band called it quits in 1997, and listening to X Japan always make me emotional, cause he was a genius)

[@redha1r-alien]

He will die after five months. Nobody would have expected it

[@tifynamatsumoto7049]

=maD.Doc:. Until now after 20years of his passing I still can’t believe he is far gone.. feel like a yesterday. Even Yoshiki missed hide every single day.. 😔😔😢

[@Xia-hu]

This was the first live I have seen from X Japan, too. I was like, why are they so sad, why is this so emotional? This was their very last concert, after the singer Toshi announced his departure from the band. He was pulled into a brainwashing cult that hammered into him that rock music was evil and they literally beat him up and humiliated him. Their emotions here at this concert were all genuine sadness. 5 months later, the pink haired guitarist, Hide, in the neon suit died tragically. 10 years later the band reunited, with a new guitarist, Sugizo. The vocalist fortunately got out of the cult and realized he was tricked into it all. They still exist and tour, they recorded a song for SAW IV, called I.V. and Yoshiki (the pianist and drummer) is now composing music for the new Vin Diesel xXx movie. They are an awesome band, and their fasts, heavy songs are incredidbly good, too. Kuenai, Weekend, Rose of Pain, Scars, Dahlia, Rusty Nail... They have a dual identity, because heavy metal is just one part of it. Yoshiki's ballads are incredibly beautiful and heart-wrenching.

[@jonnyd316]

I know this was 3 years ago but IV was the first song I heard from them back then and went down the rabbit hole of songs. Love em so much. I recall actually seeing a song on a ddr game or something similar.

[@polyrhythmz2620]

My dude. You NEED to see Art of Life - X Japan to get the full experience (plus the metal!)

[@ChuckyDoll79]

best song ever written.

[@Zazutorque]

I get teary eyed when I hear this version. Just how the band gets all somber in the realization that this is their last show together. And the audience singing them off. Amazing.

[@heavymetaler1408]

Love this song. But, you HAVE to react to their Magnum Opus "Art of Life" by X Japan. Nice, long and speedy.

[@theopatino2379]

A great track for sure, especially since he likes the keys

[@ryanwilliamson8890]

I was about to post this as well... please react to this.

[@micahclark24]

lol he's like ''lets react to Japanese metal'' immediately picks their most popular classical ballad ---- complete fail

[@heavymetaler1408]

Probably cause it was something someone else requested. Endless Rain is a popular one, he normally just goes off the most popular song choice from comments. Still... Art of Life needs a reaction.

[@micahclark24]

but this song is a freaking masterpiece all their songs are

[@hey_richard_this_is_tony]

Watching this you'd never think that the guy playing the piano is also one of the wildest drummers in the history of speed metal :D

[@hey_richard_this_is_tony]

I discovered them many years ago and imagine my shock to find out that the greatest band in Rock/Metal wasn't known AT ALL in europe and the US. Please react to some of their heavy stuff too! Kurenai, Weekend and of course their magnum opus ART OF LIFE. And btw your reactions are among THE BEST on youtube. Seriously. Open, Respectful, fun. Really great, man.

[@jimmyyan558]

X JAPAN's 'The Last Live' in 1997, which is still the one of the five most fantastic live music tour in my mind.

[@rajanmaharjan5711]

After watching this reaction... I checked on their documentary video... I was sooo sad to see HIDE the lead guitarist died or more like killed himself just after 5 months from this farewell concert... I almost immediately connected.with him... I didnt know them at all but still I felt so much pain... you should react to more of their songs... and thank you for introducing to them X JAPAN..

[@69opsman]

We are X, so many good songs that no one in the west got to hear. They were and are still the "real deal" ROCK STARS. Something we haven't had in North America for some time. Rusty Nail, Jade, Say Anything (the ultimate song of heart break), like I said the list is endless. I just pulled out my old albums and started listening to them again, I forgot how really good they were. Side note: I saw Babymetal in the UK and it gave me the same feeling from when I first saw X. You might want to react to Road of Resistance and No Rain No Rainbow Legend S.

[@bobbyheilbronn8377]

my fav song is Alive, simply brilliant classic rock

[@shinjukutokyo2023]

Both groups definitely give you emotional experiences with their songs. Lots of emotionally charged songs.

Proof music is universal. I didn't understand a word but I could feel the emotion, the love, the sadness through the song and the crowd. I could tell this was something epic for them. Then I read the comments down below and found I was right. Epic performance and a great video. Truly inspirational. Great Job!

[@jthomashair]

That was beautiful... I got prolonged chills when the crowd started singing. I'm gonna need to listen to this band a lot more!

[@dougtube9870]

There is so much drama going on during this performance. It really adds an element to this video. Knowing the emotional torture that each is going through in this moment. If you have a chance watch the documentary We Are X. It’s an amazing story. I was fortunate to see them at Madison Square Garden. What a great show.

[@KAMUI138]

That was the end of a very special thing. X Japan spearheaded and defined an entire movement of music in a very conservative country. At the time of that video it was their final concert. I believe they have the most sellouts at the Tokyo dome. Also, it wasn't long after that that the guy in the yellow suit passed away. RIP HIDE.

[@johanneswarn5488]

If i remember correctly wasn’t it a rumored suicide? Many years ago i read about it so i could be wrong

[@jeppyjep]

@@johanneswarn5488 dont know if its suicide because iirc Yoshiki used the same technique as Hide to exercise. Yoshiki said that maybe Hide was doing it wrong and then...

[@user-hk7hz9cn7v]

@@jeppyjep It could have also been auto erotic asphyxiation gone wrong which I tend to lean more towards. I don’t believe he was suicidal but he was an adventurous fellow

Hide used a neck stretching exercise that used a towel tied around your neck and on a doorknob. Hide had tried doing it while drunk and he passed out and died in his sleep.

[@keremcantarhan]

This is my all time favorite live of all time. The emotion is so palpable you can almost feel it weigh down on you even from a screen.

[@steve200hk]

Can stop my tears watching the last live everytime

[@josemanuelperez2853]

You can bet. The guy with pink hair and yellow suit was Hideto Matsumoto, aka "Hide", "Pink Spider" but knows as "Hide". Guitarist, composer, singer, producer.. a true music genius with his own solo career besides X-Japan. Also a nice person. Blood and marrow donor he visited regularly children hospital and a lot more. Sadly he died in 1998 with only 33 years (suicide, accident... nobody is really sure). The piano and drums was performed of course by Yoshiki: compositor, founder and leader of X-Japan. Of course he is good playing the piano, he starts to learn at the age of four. He is a great composer, even music for orchestra. X-Japan is more "speed metal", "power metal" even "symphonic metal". This song is a ballad, others are more "metal" of course Yoshiki have even his own comic "Blood Red Dragon" created by Stan Lee and Todd Mc Farlane (no joke, chek yourself) and even a documental about X-Japan kzbin.info/www/bejne/j37aYoKYhtqbhM0

He drank himself to death about 5 months after this farewell show.

That's not like any other version of Endless Rain. It's their last song on their setlist for their best show ever before they split. If you have to listen a version of Endless Rain, you have to listen this one first.

I'd say Weekend would be even better tho
