Babymetal - Yava Reaction

[@CharlesEMurphy]

Yava is one of my favorites! It has a really sophisticated structure. Thank for doing this one.

[@MacTaipan]

This is one of my favourite songs and in my opinion the most uplifting one. Ska is always kinda fun, and BABYMETAL make it even more so. And the choreography is hilarious, it always leaves me with a huge smile.

[@itstillbyme]

glad you like it. so far, the best performance of this underrated song was in the Big Fox Festival at Osaka Jo-Hall 2017 with additional solo intro from the Kami Band. thankfully this song are still in their set-list & cant wait to see the pro-shot of performance in the Legend Metal-Galaxy at Makuhari.

Good reaction. I think 'YAVA' (like 'Awadama Fever' and a few others) doesn't get many reactions because they don't have official videos as such and the live performances are just not on KZbin, so finding them and then having to Link & Sync to actually do the reaction isn't something everybody will want to do. Fortunately this particular compilation video is one of the few that has been put together quite well and it has (probably) used the Wembley audio - I say probably as they have 'live at Wembley' in the title, clearly there is footage from many different shows and performances included. Possibly the best live version of 'YAVA' was at the Big Fox Festival in 2017 (which was also Yui's last appearance) and that also has an instrumental intro from the Kami Band. 'YAVA' is Babymetal's take on Ska-metal.

Getting the Fox Five DVD set was the best thing I ever did as far as my Babymetal connection goes. Superb quality and sound and so interesting seeing the different audiences.

[@JC-pn5kp]

That's one of my favorite songs, gooood reaction!!!

[@Mike-xh8fl]

Love Yava - they just added it back into the live set this very weekend in Japan!

[@johnma]

Yeap, not much YTbers reacting to this song, glad you're one of them, since this is one of my fave songs from Babymetal...

[@rickwagner-]

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤔 Nice choice. One of my favorites from 'Metal Resistance', the second album.

[@lukesomerville6603]

Let’s be real, the entirety of Metal Resistance is a gem

[@markmckeown87]

This is one band you should let your need for official videos slide, the live performances are always far better IMO!

[@LeechTMReacts]

even though im getting crucified for it, but i really did not like both of the live versions that ive seen so far :)

[@Grington300]

@@LeechTMReacts Have you tried live versions of songs you already know you like to maybe compare with the studio versions you have heard? For example - 'Karate' live at Download in the UK 2016 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHyyfWmsaLKXaMU or 'Distortion' live at Download 2018 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKvKhmaNar-asLc (I tried to find 'Starlight' live for you but the good pro-shot versions are not on KZbin and I can't remember where to find them right now).

[@Zedem0n]

@@LeechTMReacts That's not a reason to be crucified, but that is indeed perplexing. BABYMETAL is always better live. Even when the MV is awesome, there's always a live version somewhere to top it off. They haven't won best live act awards for no reason :p. I think you just haven't seen good examples of live performances ?

[@LeechTMReacts]

@@Zedem0n im sure they are great live, but live and live recording is quite a difference :)

[@Zedem0n]

@@LeechTMReacts Their live recordings are also great, that's my point :D. I'd even say that most if not all of their pro-shot live recordings sound way better than the sometimes overproduced studio versions you hear on the albums. On my Spotify, I have ripped the audio of almost every one of their songs from pro-shot live versions and made a separate playlist to the studio version and I almost always go for the live rip. You would believe me if you'd seen this list of pro-shot performances : drive.google.com/file/d/131p-m3zk6ViH1paInEE_67wHmP4FqSNf/view Of course if you wanted to react to most of that you'd need to link&sync... :P.

[@ndox9009]

YAVA is when everything are the same and different at the same time , it's like Babymetal put a new meaning into the word " Vague " or like Babymetal make the color Grey more dominant than the color Black or White.

[@Wirmish]

YAVA is in my top 5 Babymetal songs.

[@sithil]

Good Reaction. Still my favorite choreography to date. Surprised you haven't hit my favorite BM song yet though, "Akatsuki" Black Knight performance, same concert as the "Rondo of Nightmare" with Mischief of Gods intro.

[@LeechTMReacts]

I have it on my List, but somehow forgot to react to it 😂

[@KEVINTHEWS]

"Yava" and "Awadama Fever" are the sleeper hits from "Metal Resistance". Like you, I don't understand why they aren't in everyone's Top 10 Babymetal songs. When I got the cd, they were the two tunes I listened to the most, then "Syncopation" after I got the Japanese release of "Metal Resistance".

[@eskimoprime09]

I hear you. Every band or album has those few songs that EVERYBODY likes, Enter Sandman, Down with the Sickness, etc. Like yes, they are good songs, but there are so many more great songs and those ones usually end up around the middle of the list for me. Babymetal has those as well, Gimme Chocolate, Karate, Road of Resistance... yes they are great, but the sleeper hits that don't even have singles like Yava or Akatsuki are truly masterpieces.

[@jannette771]

Yava is one of my top 10 x

[@PlezurBazar]

One of my favorites!

[@lennyg47]

Always more BabyMetal forever! :)

[@piipefunk]

It is a good song, maybe you should try Tales of destinies by babymetal 😎

[@Zedem0n]

The catch with BABYMETAL is if you want the best songs you often have to venture out of youtube and reacting to them will almost immediately result in a block or copyright strike. The solution to that is ofcourse Link&Sync. I know many reactors are reluctant to use that method but it's painful to watch you react to subpar videos when you have a veritable treasure of live performances in HD quality lying around the web that you could witness. Sometimes the comparison is unfathomable, in the same order of magnitude as watching an official MV to watching a live version recorded from a cheap cellphone. If you only knew how good they can get, the best things are out of your reach if you do not adopt L&S :P.

[@abigailwildlife1322]

PA PA YA

[@yuumetal2363]

I watched your 6 babymetal reaction videos. I want to see your reaction to Babymetal - Shanti Shanti (Glaston bury 2019) and PaPaYa (Glaston bury 2019)

[@KenjaTimu]

They have so many good songs. Some get lost. The song before it on the album is great too. 'Awadama Fever'. Rarely reacted to either. Think it usually gets blocked. 'Tales of the Destinies' is great too, but there is no good youtube video for it so that is understandable. Uki Uki Midnight is one that is rare to see and a really good song that you can actually react to. BABYMETAL - Uki Uki★Midnight - Live (Makuhari Messe) HD kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoiWhKCIl5uphJI

[@ernestrimbeck7630]

Amuse is tough on BabyMetal reactors Yava is one that gets block or copyrighted a lot depending on what video you use Whats left to react to? Meta taro, From dusk till dawn, GJ

[@mikemogul2263]

FDTD, noise cancelling headphones and TURN THAT F@CKER UP!!!

[@waifualbedogaming3230]

[@vincentlimtiaco4736]

[@LeechTMReacts]
