BABYMETAL - Tsubasa Wo Kudasai (Please Give Me Wings)-Live

[@jakemuller8626]

You forgot to put the most important part in the description: _In November 1997, Junko Yamamoto, the lead singer from the folk group Akaitori, released the song as a single. The song was chosen as the official theme of the soccer team of Japan during the 1998 FIFA World Cup._ _A version of this song performed by Megumi Hayashibara is part of the soundtrack for the film Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance by Hideaki Anno._ This live concert was at SuMetal 15th birthday, she also sang another cover, White Love from Speed, both were hits the same year Suzuka was born, despite this song already being known. If you hear Junko Yamamoto you will see her song is like a japanese version of Celine Dion - To Love You More, at least for the violin element. As for the Evangelion thing connection, she sang another Evangelion song cover the next year, also a hit in 1997, Tamashii No Rufuran (Soul's Refrain). Our queen made this song even more brighter.

This is really rare.

The original vocal is Junko Yamamoto. It’s a very popular song in Japan.

I really like how deliberate their movements on stage were at the time. You can tell they (well at least Su-metal) is concentrating on making every movement just like she I am sure had rehearsed numerous times. And, yeah, I can see her shift over slightly at the end while on the cross as another commenter mentioned probably via a cue in her IEM from Koba telling her to scoosh over a tad. Another nice post, Andy. Thanks.

[@Inosuke_Hashibira75]

Thanks for this hidden gem

[@jeffschreifels8651]

I always notice at the end when the cross comes down Su shifts herself ever so slightly to her right to center herself on the cross. I wonder if she got the message in her IEM? "Move 6 inches to your right".

I'm curious. Why the cross? Was there religious symbolism involved?

[@CatherineAaBb]

Probably reference to Evangelion
