BAND-MAID DOUBLE REACTION - Puzzle Live and Acoustic

[@Slippy6582]

Puzzle is my favorite song... Hands down... It´s perfect. The lyrics, the change of paces, the different riffs, the "solos" and the feel to it, thanks to SAIKI´s voice. Kanami´s masterpiece!

[@billmcleangunsmith]

I love the "pin-drop" silence from the crowd during the music box. Much respect for the artists.

[@kent-oveprestberg3578]

The song Puzzle(both versions) is the top tier of the Band-Maid catalogue. Pure wonders.

[@roberttoomey6157]

I believe the Maids are legetimently the best band in the world

[@haggaisimon7748]

I don’t know about that, but last year I listen only them!

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Man you're back from your black ops (I mean acting). BAND-MAID are 5 individual puzzle pieces that fit together to make the perfect picture :)

[@JuanSan66]

These concrete performances of Puzzle are a BIG masterpiece.

[@MoonmanRedux]

Both versions are great but the acoustic one reduces me to tears every time!

[@phaeron]

No matter how many times I listen to these two versions, it always surprises me how different they seem to be, even though it's the same song. The regular version is one of my favorites of BM in general, but I just can't get over Kanami's voice in the acoustic version. So beautiful how the two complement each other and contribute to the mood. Both songs from this acoustic session always give me goosebumps.

[@ericifune5543]

Same song but very different feeling. It's about unrequited love. The regular version with Saiki spitting out the lyrics is about anger and obsession. The acoustic version is about loss and heartache.

[@robertdanilotecson9111]

This song is a masterpiece in itself! And the only ones worthy of performing it are the creators themselves!

[@u28one]

Puzzle is one of my favorite Band Maid songs, the complexity and tone of the song plus the meaning of it is just incredible. Kanami shreds the entire song like one long solo. The acoustic version is simply wonderful and again Kanami impresses with her guitar work and beautiful backing voice.

[@bigbrutalbassbeer410]

The song they played immediately after this was an acoustic version of Anemone. And it’ll tear your heart up into little weepy pieces! Really, the emotional force she puts into it is formidable AF!💪🏻🤘🏻

[@philproffitt8363]

I'll have to watch the Blu-ray again...did Saiki actually shed a tear singing Anemone?...seemed like it.

[@bigbrutalbassbeer410]

@@philproffitt8363 At the end when she sings out, “I love you” ( in Japanese), it does appear that she’s unsuccessfully fighting with tears as she looks upward. Her voice is a little more raspy as well when she says “Arigato”.

[@AngelLWJ]

One of the best band maid songs ever

[@patron40silver]

Impossible for me to name a favorite BAND-MAID song but Puzzle is one of the 4 or 5 I could choose ( me ) from. Saiki's non stop ( no breathing ) singing, Miku's angel like backing vocals and the power of the song are the things I really like. Acoustically, it's 180 degree turn. Soft and simple but so full of emotion. Kanami's haunting backing vocals stand out, too.

[@gringopablo]

Puzzle is in the Top 5 of Band Maid's songs imo.

[@jacobusderottmann1000]

And this is why I say that Saiki is queen of Japanese soul. She tears me up with this. The protagonist loves a guy who is with someone else and knows she will never have him, but can't help her overwhelming feelings. BTW, doing this also has the practical effect of not needing to put as much pressure on her voice for a while. And yeah, I loved this and would like an acoustic mini-set from these two more often.

[@PaulEngineer]

Great to revisit Puzzle, and a nice reaction. A fantastic time to rejoin the Band Maid roller-coaster - enjoy the ride.

[@paullow3377]

The music box was playing Anemone. Kanami and Saiki performed the acoustic versions of Puzzle and Anemone back-to-back.

[@markmathewssgbcpenaltyboxs6389]

Love this song in both ways!! Each are great for their own reasons! Thanks for reacting to these videos!

[@unclespooky]

I find it amazaing that Saiki and Kanami, Kanami in particular could make puzzle fit both genres so well.

[@unclespooky]

what am I talking about, Saiki kills both versions lol

[@roberttoomey6157]

The Maid's are fantastic

[@chopperweasle1]

Ahh, the song and performance that made me a full on Maidiac! Nice reaction!

[@Dtagcity]

Man If only they upload Puzzle in the official channel. This performance is such a masterpiece. Even the acoustic one is awesome. I wonder how long will we have to wait to hear Kanami sing again. Next album, there should be a song where Kanami and Misa sings with Miku playing lead and Saiki playing rhythm. It’d be epic! ;) Btw that guy in the crowd around 8:40 screaming “Mincho” like he wants to scream his life out cracked me up 🤣 I’d probably have done the same if I were there though.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

You mean that wasn't you screaming. Are you sure you weren't there?

[@2abug]

Kanami's voice is so fluffy I'm gonna die

[@Dtagcity]

@@GaryHolloway-810 I’m not sure anymore, but that scream resonated with a part of my soul so.. 😅

[@GaryHolloway-810]

@@DMiyash248 Wow I'd never seen that one before. On a side note it did not escape my attention that you were talking about B-M/Mad Max hairstyles. Are you sure that was a photo of a mohawk cos it looked like she had a lion on her head. I didn't want to interrupt your conversation :)

[@GaryHolloway-810]

@@DMiyash248 LOL. It still looked cool but it wouldn't have suited Miku, she needs her pigtails :)

[@robertbassham8514]

Always love hearing the Anemone music box. Such a great melody that sets the mood for Puzzle which is nestled between the music box and Anemone acoustic live, which is also a must hear song.

[@toshimatyu6654]

It may be an important song that they have released 33 videos and do not release "Puzzle" or "Moratorium". I think they'll release somewhere they grow up. It's also important that there are hidden parts that aren't open to the public right now. I would like to resell the live video.

[@Kevin6059]

I'll bet Saiki can hold her breath for 10 minutes underwater.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Whilst singing :)

[@septimusseverus7237]

I can't understand the management of this band. Why don't they upload these wonderful lives videos back on their official channel? Especially knowing the corresponding original blu-ray is not available for a long time and is not reedited. This is nothing but a stupid marketing strategy.

[@armynurseboy]

Two totally different feels for each version. The regular version is a woman lashing out angrily. The acoustic version is that same woman lamenting.

[@craigreichhold6032]

WoW 1st time /with anything 👍🎤🥁🎸

[@curtisrrobles7885]

MISA!!!! MISA!!!!! MISA!!!!! 🥃🥃🥃 yes a top 5 fave. Both versions of 🧩

[@GaryHolloway-810]

It was cool he did both at once :)

[@curtisrrobles7885]

@@GaryHolloway-810 yeah that's the best way to compare and enjoy both versions 🤙🏼

[@CHRISCONTEPSS]

Nice job! Please keep the reactions coming:) Sub!

[@masahikotsunoda8278]

kanami voice is LOVE💝😊

[@haggaisimon7748]

For hard rock you may listen new Warning or old Rinne. Instrumental Onset is magnificent. I love Daydreaming, a rock ballad. Moratorium is a giant song. Domination and Freedom are more poppy and they are on YT freely. Secret my lips, Don’t tell me, Choose me, Dice, new songs Form Unseen world are awesome. Alone, I love this song. The list is VERY long.

[@powbobs]

Acoustic version of Anemone will make you cry.

[@darincampbell5440]

What can you say about Kanami? She plays like the devil and sings like an angel!

[@TomClark-Futoura]

Puzzle, YOLO kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXy9k62ZismMZ8k, Daydreaming kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHTEloihp66nr7s and a number of others are world-class masterpieces. Too bad no one (relatively speaking) knows about them. Band-Maid numbers should be in the tens of millions, if not higher. It's a complete mystery to me how people have moved away from mind, gut, and soul gripping rock... to cheezy, glitz & glam pop entertainers, industrial boy groups, and "I'm to cool for you" commercial hip-hop / rap crap. Maybe groups like Band-Maid, The Warning, Jinjer and others will once again ignite people's musical sensibilities back to where it should be - honest, rock-based, kick-ass music written from the heart that moves you. 🤘😎🤘 Thanks, Tyler, for covering Puzzle! Maybe check out Daydreaming next for their, imo, best written song to date.

[@roberttoomey6157]

I have a suggestion regarding Band Maid. Maid's live performance "Don't Tell me" . This proshot version is gonzo so maybe one of your subscribers can send you a link .

Can you react to the last dreamcatcher's comeback? They released it last Tuesday. It has some rock elements in it, you may like it. It's called Odd eye
