Band-Maid - Bestie | Reaction

[@HG-kr5dc]

日本から。 Thank you so much for loving BAND-MAID. The official music video for this song will be uploaded on You Tube on May 1 at 24:00 Japan time. Please check it out. Thank you for your continued support of BAND-MAID.

Miku is a lyrical genius! "The best things are always in your heart." What a line! That line always brings a smile to my face (and a happy tear to my eye).

While "Bestie" is a departure from their usual high energy hard rock sound, the song shows their versatility and musical professionalism. The song is a collaboration with Mike Einzinger of Incubus, Mike composed the song and gave the band input into the sonic tone of the song. The Maids, in their own way, turned this laid-back Cali power ballad into a classic that, I hope, should get a lot of radio air-play in the U.S. Miku wrote the lyrics in English as a heartfelt tribute to her bandmates (her besties". If you can look at the lyrics, the love the Maids have for each other is apparent. Mohammed Ali once said, "Anyone who doesn't understand the meaning of friendship, understands nothing." Well said!

This was a collaboration with Mike Einziger from Incubus. They are playing a concert with Incubus in May. Hopefully they will record a live video of this song at the show. Enjoy your reactions Jynger!

Now this is indeed a great song: love the lyrics but the drums and guitar just take it to perfection and yes it makes the heart happy. Can't wait for the next!! 🖤🖤

[@JyngerSlapz]

Definitely a pick me up track for sure!

[@Ad_Astra1975]

@@JyngerSlapz It sure is, gotta put these kinds of songs on a playlist for when it's needed

[@fernandoloya6325]

Thanks for your reaction!

Jynger, always enjoy your warm reaction to the Maids! Recent live releases from their 10th Anniversary finale (at least the ones I don't think you have seen yet...) are the confidence boosting "Don't You Tell Me" and the emotional concert closer "Endless Story". I look forward to your responses to those!

Thanks JyngerSlapz! Happy Sunday to you 🙂 🤘😀🤘

The OFFICIAL MV is out! The Maids have become Angels!🫶🤘

I'm not sure that this song is getting the same recognition as their other songs but I like it's great listening to Saiki singing in English. I'm a little obsessed with her so it makes me happy.

[@jamesschwarz007]

Heartwarming song and reaction, Jynger, seeing you happy makes me happy! And I love your Stevie Nicks t-shirt!

[@bartyslattfast]

This song is simpler than their usual but from the heart and beautiful imho

[@HaroMatsuRestarted]

New MV for this song will be released/premiered in few days (May 1st)😊

[@stevenchenault8815]

Just keeps getting better and better, like you said !!

I love MISA's playing. Her bass tone is setting a new standard... and Akane's drumming is so distinguishable... and Kanami's solo... ahhhh! The recording and mix is good, too! Miku's lyrics are heartfelt. "I can't look into your eyes." Is Saiki her bestie? But Saiki masterfully delivers her lyrics, as always. BTW - The volume of lyrics and nuanced melodies she's committed to memory over the years is simply mind-blowing! Mikey-san did good at giving them his direction for the song, and probably helped with the English lyrics -- a good growth for Miku's craft. I don't understand why Kanami said she couldn't have come up with the main riff. Probably just her being super polite, as usual. I like the groove and feel of the song. I was waiting for, "I don't give a f**k" at the end. But maybe with these particular "Bestie" lyrics, that wouldn't be such a good idea. Even though at first listen it felt on par with Start Over, it will undoubtedly do what every Band-Maid song does -- grow on you! Got to break through to the mainstream market with a few cuts, right? Hopefully Bestie helps with that! Thanks, Band-Maid! And thx, J-Slapz!

A great collaboration. Band Maid and Incubus meet half way... and the result is beauty.
