So true. The blend seemed so unnatural on first thought because it's rare that East meets West and it works ... but both of these bands have some of the best production value in the world, and putting them together and seeing the amount of fun they were having in the video puts a smile on your face. Easily best song of the year nothing comes close

It's a hot take, but frankly the self-appointed "metalheads" that hate on Babymetal are posers. Those girls are every bit as metal as the other greats of the genre. I don't wanna flip up the racism card right away, but the fact that they aren't white and westerm has probably more than a little to do with it.. When the girls have the approval of so many big names in the industry, the haters are just making themselves look terrible..
