Baby Metal "Monochrome" [First Take] Piano Version | Vocal Performance Coach Reaction & Analysis

[@jakemuller8626]

Welcome back to BabyMetal's metalverse 🦊🤘🌐 So glad to see you're back with this beautiful song, I would have love if you share original version with all of us first as well the rest of new singles, so far no one is having copyright blocked issues so don't worry about it and come back soon. BM fans already know this type of unique acoustic version like Akatsuki Unfinished Version live at Legend 1997 or The One - Stairway To Living Legend, so we're used to this SuMetal's vocals power to reach and melting our hearts. Also fans at Sabaton's Europe Tour were enjoying this song (original) each one of the concerts and having a magical moment. They recently released this version and The One - Unfinished Version for streaming platforms, that's another clip you can find at TFT channel with the full trio this time. Totally agree with your last train of thought, people forget they grew up and they're not childs anymore so is natural they want to mature and move on with certain styles, either way they're still playing some of the classic kawaii metal songs at live shows and if that isn't enough they got a new BM mirror unit with teenagers to play and bring back some of those early BM era vibes. Thanks for sharing your analysis and hope to see you next time 🦊🤘🌈

Nice reaction. We just witnessed a minor miracle. Su and Moa singing while standing still. A sight rarely seen. Su cemented her singing credentials with this performance. Her control and pronunciation are outstanding. Sometimes I feel like she is singing in English just using words or phrases I don't know. Not sure why it feels that way to me it just does. Which means it's more of that Babymetal magic. I bet you could be from anywhere in the world and feel that way about her singing. Many of their songs feel like they're singing to you. I think this is key in why so many folks have said that Babymetal have gotten them through some personal dark times in their lives. This song is one of my personal favorites by them even before this performance. Just from the album version. The music video I think changed the meaning of the song with the added visuals. Su was surprised from the way fans took the song to have a heavy meaning to it. She thought of the song in a much lighter manner up until then. But they have been working on this song for over 5 years. Which means they started on this song while Yui was still with them. Yui who at a very young age went through some personal dark times while members of her family were in the ICU at the hospital. It's during this time Yui and Moa did their audition tape for Sakura Gakuin by doing a song from Karen Girls. The group Su belonged to before she joined Sakura Gakuin. Yup they have a lot of history. Yui came through all of that and brought back the color in her life with Babymetal and just smiled. Both Su and Moa have said they support Yui in whatever she wants to do. It's been 5 years since Yui and left. And now after 5years as a duo. Babymetal has decided to return to their trio format. Promoting Momoko from avenger to official member of Babymetal. A little more history. Momoko while a member of Sakura Gakuin said she wanted to be a dancer for a big named artist. Which she got to do as an avenger dancer. She also actually said she wanted to be a member of Babymetal. Which when she said it everyone laughed. Including her. Almost like I want this even though it most likely would never happen. And then Yui left Babymetal. And the door opens for another dream to be fulfilled. Gotta say Momoko has that Babymetal magic. And fits right in with them. All these years later Su wanted chocolate and now she gets to tour with her M&M's. Moa and Momoko. Yup some folks having a hard time dealing with the fact they're not kids anymore. That's life. Things change. On the new album they have a song about it too. For me I dig it. Enjoy the journey through the foxhole and into the metalverses of Babymetal.

Great reaction/analysis 👊🏽⚡️There is something magic with these two angels🦊🤘🏾

[@elvwood]

Got me crying again, darn it. Such a great song and performance. This song is also _so_ good live! When you've got 10k+ people doing the ohs you're just swept up in it. A great experience.

[@autohmae]

Babymetal performs with such precision to best convey what they want to say.

[@PlezurBazar]

I love how BABYMETAL is growing. This last album, in particular, has exceeded my expectations tenfold. Kitsune dao!

[@kitkat6407]

Flawless beauty✨

[@jeffschreifels8651]

I agree 100% about letting them explore. I want them creating music they love, not manufacturing music for popularity.

[@road-runner]

Great reaction/analysis, thanks! Su-metal is an incredible vocalist and I love this video because you can rarely see how she works with her facials muscles to find her best technique. She's well known for having a clear voice and excellent intonation, vocalization and breath control even live. Which is crazy given the fact she's usually doing a pretty demanding choreo all the time. Until next time! 🤘🦊

[@flugelhornoldman1362]

Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。[FYI : In the electric version of this song at the Yokohama venue on April 2, the audience (including me) sang that ♪ oh oh ohoo ♪ part with Moametal and Momometal, new official 3rd girl, while Su humming the melody in the sea of phone lights. What a bliss! ] The girls proved that they can do anything. They have forced people to headbang with their heavy music and sharp choreo. Now they can depict various images by just singing and project them into the listeners' brain to move people emotionally. Thank you BABYMETAL. And thank you Koba, the BM producer, for your serendipity. Some 13 years ago, you certainly discovered something amazing and sacred for us. Speaking of the three figures in white hood adding some background vocals, they are certainly homage to BM's girlhood with original three girls.

Nice reaction and welcome back.🦊'Monochrome' was already a beautiful song - and then they went on The First take and produced this, another beautiful version. The live performances are possibly even more touching - Su has been having the audience all take their phones out and turn their lights on while she hums the melody. You are absolutely right, they have grown and matured, but they are no less entertaining and the music is as good or better. We all like what we like and so on, but it seems to me the majority of people who say they can't get past the first two albums are the ones who won't let them grow up and who refused to accept that BABYMETAL became a duo 5 years ago. They are a trio again now of course since Momometal was revealed as the third member of this latest incarnation on 1st April.

🍅💀🍅 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 " Just smile " x 100 !! !!

For the new diehards, Suzuka Nakamoto's growth as a singer is easily to explore. There are videos of her from her days at ASH both solo and with her sister Himeka. Then from her time with Karen's Girls where Kobametal discovered her. Also, of course, her performances at Sakura Gakuin separate from the Heavy Metal club. Fun Fact - Su was Class President of Sakura Gakuin, her last year. I love the "Mature" Babymetal!!

[@TSUYOSHITANAKA-gu6pu]

nice to meet you. After watching your BABYMETAL stream, I fell in love with you. Please react to the song from dusk till dawn by BABYMETAL. I recommend it. With love from Japan!

[@actuallynotsteve]

I'm in the club of grown men who play heavy music that can admit this performance made me cry

[@JonasHDK]

i read in another comment section that THIS version that is a tribute to Yui-metal symbolized by the 3 Roped girls holding hands if u pay attention to thier hights, and it was something about how it was posted/released on socials with Momo-metal was announced to become permanent and a poster with all 3 on it, so like there is sadness and grey times but theres alwayse Hope, my perspective, no idea if its true tho only been a fan for 2 weeks, but i choose to belive it because it only makes it more beautiful. i know Yui left for real in 2018, but this is like a goodbye and a end of an beautiful era and start of a new era that is also gonna be beautiful.

[@AlizeeDefan]

*Thank you for doing this!* Many people, including myself think this song is about or a reflection of the A-BOMB that destroyed the city of Hiroshima, which is also Su Metal's home town

[@jybrokenhearted]

This song is about the Hiroshima nuclear blast. Su is from Hiroshima. This explains the Ragnarok reference. Sad faces and 3 mourning hooded figures.

[@userone6140]

Su is a human accordion
