Bubble is not only my fave Band Maid song, but one of my top 10 songs of all time! dbl ♥ One of the all time killer riffs in rock history!

[@mattdhorstman]

It's just another example of how Band-Maid can play any kind of music. So great. All the isolated tracks for this song are available on Band-Maid Prime as well. So if you want to see Akane's kick work up close, you can.

[@rocotocloc]

No bullshit, i've listen to Bubble like a hundred times and i still found exciting things on it. The incredible and restraint drum work of Akane, the ultra groovy bass of Misa, Kanami the master of riffs and meaningful solos (she says way more in 10 seconds than most guitarists in an entire minute) well assisted by Miku on rhythm guitar, and of course Saiki, she's a true force to be reckon: her voice, breathe control and stamina are amazing Thanks Wave for revisiting this masterpiece and point out some things that i haven't noticed. This ladies never fails at impress me, even after hundred listens

[@WavePotter]

My pleasure! Thanks for the thoughtful comment! I'm on my way to 100x! :)

[@佐々木幸司-i2b]

😊🤩😃👍🤘👏

[@JuanSan66]

We all like Akane in gorilla mode, but she probably shows her best when she goes into jazz mode.

[@lurkmerchant]

That's why I love start over as well.

[@mikesmith3342]

Great to see you back in "Full BAND-MAID" mode!!!

[@Davey-Boyd]

Bubble is such an underrated BM song!

[@edwardallen4051]

Akane's tom work has always been a stand out feature of her drumming for me, It rarely sounds really heavy, there seems to be some lightness in the way she does it that makes her sound different to anyone else. Added to that whoever sets up her kit and mic's it is I think a master of their craft.

[@chrisegbertky]

Excellent reaction 👌. One of the stars of the BandMaid catalog IMO. I have to tell you it is a lot more fun to watch BandMaid with you or Old Mr B than it is alone! BTW people in Hollywood pay stylists thousands of $$$ to get that " I combed my hair with a hand held egg mixer" look! So good job Rosie!!

[@BM4-Life]

6:09 *Miku* in the cab leaving *Saiki* outside in the rain. 🙂🙂😥

[@ronoda]

Saiki's dance moves are always underappreciated, but especially here

[@davestafford8273]

If you watch the video where Miku goes to the Zemaitis factory to see how her “Flappy Pigeon” guitar is made, they also show her how they assemble the pearl-front guitar that she uses in this video (each piece of the mosaic is shaped & glued in place by hand). kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2OleKqpoaeFZrM

[@Metal_Auditor]

The pearl fronts aren't listed on their website anymore. I hope they're just temporarily out of stock and not permanently discontinued.

[@davestafford8273]

@@Metal_Auditor based on Miku’s tour, the amount of manual work required to make even a regular model might mean that they’d just be too expensive to sell very well. But that’s a shame - it’s a gorgeous looking guitar.

[@frankgonzalez4853]

love MISA's bassline in this one

[@2abug]

One thing I really love about BAND-MAID’s songwriting is the use of the main riff. You hear it at the beginning and after the first chorus. Then, they add a breakdown, a solo or slow things down before or after that and there’s a chorus or a bridge in the last part. And right at the end, they remind you of that great main riff you have forgotten because of all the awesome parts I mentioned before 😅

[@K.H.D710]

Thanks, Wave, for revisiting my most fav B-M song, Bubble! The song itself is fabulously awesome, and Sai-chan's wink (and MISA lying on the carpet and playing her bass) makes the MV version of this song even more special😍💕💕💕

[@randymcmillen647]

The MISA on the carpet scene would make a fantastic poster!

[@K.H.D710]

@@randymcmillen647 Agree💯%

[@rakjr6]

Yes, it was inspired by the trailer for Bohemian Rhapsody. Down to little details like British coins 8 seconds into the video.

[@adilsonfernando1754]

Wave, Can you imagine this live, please Band-Maid come to Brazil

[@davids9445]

Nice detailed breakdown. This song seems underrated but has so many awesome things going on in the music. Love Akane’s drumming in this song…well actually all their songs 😂🤘🏻

[@stevehall5128]

At 2:43 I thought you were gonna go full "Akanamisaikiku" 😄

[@WavePotter]

Akanamisaikiku is my new favorite word. 😅

[@larryhoopingarner6445]

Excellent as always Wave,you mentioned the theme for video was the Queen movie, Bubble was also picked as theme song for TV series Perfect Crime in Japan,amazing song.

[@rizkikamal6641]

What a " Massive Rally" uploading video... four videos at one day... hhe... I like the "water effect" at the drums... making her "Akane" more looks badass for me hhe...

[@GSpotter63]

I have shared BAND-MAID with lots of people but the ones who seem to appreciate them the most are other musicians. That goes double for this particular track.

[@fredminier8547]

NOBODY should ever leave SIAKI in the rain 🌧!!!❤❤🤟🤟🤟🦧🍌🙏

[@thedocofrock1890]

i had also forgotten how much i love this video. that chorus with the double octave kills me. and misa on the rug. damn !

[@miqoto]

Lol "woohoo wooohuhuu" bwahahahhaa good one wave!

[@SilentChaos15]

Thanks so much for the deep dive Wave. Yes the mv has plenty of references to the Bohemian Rhapsody trailer. Can't wait for more deep dives. Hoping Freedom is on the horizon.

[@me262talon2]

Thanks Wave! You should do Miku's tour of Zemaitis

[@WavePotter]

Yes i should! Thank you for the reminder!

[@Space_Ranger]

Band-Maid added Chicago to the concerts!!!! 😂 I know you already have tickets to see them elsewhere but if you go again, I hope to meet you guys.

[@weilima9316]

Interesting that you brought up Saiki’s range. This is actually one of their songs where I feel she has always struggled with the high notes in the chorus. Either singing flat or not hitting it during live shows. Even for Line Cube Shibuya, she made the song work cleverly without actually hitting the original high notes. Very curious to see if after her leveling up over the last 2 years, she would finally be able to sing it as was intended during live shows, amidst their 20+ other demanding songs.

[@Running-withscissors]

With the expanded tour announced (we all knew the venues were too small in original schedule haha), wouldnt it be cool if at a couple of the larger venues if they had special guests appear? For example, Imagine Bryan May showing up for this song? Gwen Stephanie sing a song with Saiki , Carlos Santana do a guitar battle with Kaname, Dave Grohl do a song with the maids, etc. That would be huge IMO.

[@lurkmerchant]

Many musicians can play rock, metal, jazz, but funk is not as easy a genre to play as it sounds, especially when genre switches from one to another and to another many times within a song...Akane's drumming is so fluid, as usual...what can I say? Another great song.

[@Metal_Auditor]

I wish Miku would still bring the pearl front on tour. I know having a signature model is awesome, but that thing is just so beautiful.

[@LS-uv9gg]

Re: the bizarre auto-translate. For some reason, most of these that are all goofy with Band-Maid's songs end up defaulting to trying to translate from Korean, rather than Japanese to English. I have no idea why that is the case, but I've noticed it with several of their songs, when it's not done officially by the band, and just left to the existing auto-translate algorithm.

[@saikii69]

carefulll madiac now is 31-3-2022, april 1st is near.........

[@Kevin6059]

Thanks Wave, I just love this song, and I hope they do it in October because the sing-along whoa- oh oh oh oh oh (how the hell do you write that?) would be super fun. So many cool things going on every 2 seconds in this song so great choice for a deeper dive. That talking part with the tom action is also in triple meter (6/8 maybe?) which makes it stand out even more. And that guitar solo is like something out of a country rock song. Love Saiki on this too where she just explodes into another gear - wow! This song deserves a lot more love IMO.

Dear Wave When you react to Decide by myself from Band-Maid???Or Arcadia girl? I am really curious how you feel about some of they classic songs 🙂

Truth be told I showed Akane how do what she does in this song 😄 - and then I woke up 😭😄 fark they're magnificent, nice breakdown Wave, now I have to go back to sleep Akane needs me, Peace and Love Po 🤗🎼🎸🎤🥁🍻

Revisiting is ok, but you are still missing one of the craziest songs of these beautiful women, "screaming" :P

[@WavePotter]

I'm planning to work my way through ALL of the BAND-MAID music very soon in preparation for the concert! I want to be able to hear their catalog with no limits for at least a few months before the concert, so i'll get to it soon!
