Band-Maid | Misa Highlight Reel

[@surfingasongwave]

Nicely done! To anyone not familiar with Band-Maid - this is only _some_ of it. Look through their official videos or listen to any Band-Maid track no matter how obscure and listen for the bass line. Check the fan-cams if you think it's recording magic. Some of her most amazing bass playing is just normal day-to-day routine for her. Put the headphones on and listen to her bottom-end on *"Manners"* for example. One of my favorite parts of the YokoAri serving is when she went down the aisle and stopped in front of her mother to play *"onset."*

[@ThouDailyBlab]

She was on fire in the YokoAri serving - a Misa spectacular. I could make a 60 minute video detailing her work in songs. She says she felt free from Conqueror onwards with writing her basslines and it shows.

[@powbobs]

My favorite bassist of all time, and I’ve seen everyone since the 70’s.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Me too, and I can't remember too many that made such an impression on me.

Thank you, for putting this together it's on list to react too. 👍

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Look forward to it :) let's promote the heck out of Misa :)

[@OldMrB]

@@ThouDailyBlab And your channel 👍

[@ThouDailyBlab]

@@OldMrB Thank you. My motivation for this was people on Twitter posting about great bass players and I'm thinking Misa should be a part of that discussion. I watched a few 'best of bass players' YT vids and all the famous players seemed to only have 1 or 2 shining moments. Misa plays several solos a show. I just wanted something I could point people to :)

[@OldMrB]

[@Chan_Fry]

So many great bass guitarists have driven rock music over the decades, many of them under-utilized and underappreciated, but none of them ever captivated me, brought me to tears, or left me speechless until MISA.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Same. Band Maid make the most of their individual strengths allowing them each to shine :)

[@terrytaylor2825]

I know, right? For me, the first 'tears-eruption' was that first 'duel' on 'Don't You Tell Me' live... same show where Saiki temporarily lost her shoes in the crowd surfing on previous song (both MISA & Saiki stocking-footed on the stage, wooot!)... they went back and forth as they do... then both turned to the crowd and climax-rocked back into the song.... and I'm grabbing the tissues!

[@Bekka_Noyb]

she's incredibly talented...and a goddess! ♥ 😳

[@ThouDailyBlab]

She is a wonderful talent...thanks for watching :)

[@nuclearchef-san8304]

MISA-chan, the barefoot bass assassin.Her model looks ,the power too slay the 5-string bass, the hearts of too many men, and a bottle of whiskey all at the same time! If you are looking for the perfect girl than look no more,she is what you seek..And all of her drop dead gorgeous Band mates as well,each of them are the closest being ‘s too perfection you will ever see on this earth! Yes, I am biased as a fellow Japanese ,especially so for ALL the beautiful Ladies of BandMaid as I have an interesting personal history with them. Much love too all fans from Tokyo,Japan!

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Well, I am dead set envious :) I would love to be in Japan going to their shows whenever possible lol. Japan has one of the best bands I've ever seen/heard in 5 or so decades. Trust me, lots of love back to Japan for bringing us Band Maid.

[@jamesreid1156]

i never gave a crap about Bass, until MISA.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Me neither :)

[@rdel494]

Misa is awesome but ever hear of Mr Phillip lesh or Chris squire ?

[@ThouDailyBlab]

@@rdel494 heard of their bands but not them individually. Just looked them up and they seem okay for their time. Watched Chris's 4 min solo and some of Phil's work. Today's bassists should be better as they have all that to look back on and learn.

The bass solo in Thrill hooked me on to this group so many years ago. I love MISA MISA MISA and was fortunate to see them 3 times when they toured USA last two times. Yes I made sure I was on the left side but they are all wonderful musicians

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Loved that solo too. Jealous of anyone who has got to see them :) I wouldn't know who to focus on at a show, they are all so good :)

[@RA57727]

Let me thank you, once again for this highlight video of MISA and her sisters/friends/band mates as well. For such a shy (yes shy) lady she has shared with us fans (excuse me: Masters and Princesses) through various photos and videos her wonderful sense of humor. And of course, her fantastic skill as a bassist. Well done job that is much appreciated by old fans and I’m sure new ones as well.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Many thanks for your kind words! She is an amazing talent who puts a lot of her personality into her playing :)

[@Prober61]

Tapping into Clang they were both holding their pics and using only 3 fingers. Yeah... That's something else.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

They are both off the chart.. :)

Stood near this lady for 2 shows and she is absolutely nuts on the bass Sad I found this so late Amazing compilation

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Many thanks :) I made it to promote her on those 'best bass posts on twitter etc' :) She's the best I've seen in many decades..

[@dahnawa1957]

The one thing every one of these clips have in common? Her great drummer Akane. They are literally a force in rock and roll.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Oh yeah I agree, got to use a few of them in the Akane video :) they are terrific Thunder Buddies!

[@jan-ovepedersen5764]

She will be remembered as MISA the Bass Player, a top notch barefoot musician. I'm so pleased she is a member of my favorite band of all times, Band-Maid.

[@davevogelar9965]

Misa is fantastic I've never seen anybody like that?

[@curtisrrobles7885]

MISA!!! MISA!!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃 some of my favorite "conversations" between Misa and Kanami. I never liked the term "dual" or "battle" because these ladies are never at odds, dislike or angry with each other. They are always encouraging and pushing the best from each other. These ladies love to talk to each other thru their instruments and sometimes a "group chat" with Akane & Miku in the mix. Just my opinion

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Yeah I know, I thought about framing it that way but someone new might not follow that. :)

[@curtisrrobles7885]

@ilyBlab First off I love what you did here. Well done on the video but this where we can educate the new B-M fans. Most things are a competition in the world but these ladies are very special should be communicated as such. It looks like supporting each other is the same attitude with other female bands currently from Japan. Many Rock bands I listened to in the 60's, 70's and 80's there was that intense competition between band mates and "battles" on stage to see who was better. I enjoyed them at the time but many of those bands did not survive or a key member left. Again just my opinion :)

[@ThouDailyBlab]

@@curtisrrobles7885 I agree. My 16 year old daughter commented tonite saying "they are having a conversation on stage".

@@ThouDailyBlab and they have so much fun. No 2 concerts are ever the same. I learned the hard way. I could have seen B-M on back to back nights here in LA back in 2019 but I thought the set was going to be the same like many other bands. I was very wrong. I'll never do that again.

[@andymac0035]

Finally! someone making note of the tapping MISA can do. I really wish she would start doing it again.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Many thanks ! Yeah I wish she'd take it back up too. Integrate a tapping duel into one of their next big recorded shows and set the place on fire.

[@DavidKAnderson]

Yep: elite-tier rock bassist. My favorite thing about Misa's playing isn't her technical chops (although she has those in abundance), it's her musicality and taste. She never fails to give top priority to the needs of the _song_. She's precisely the kind of bassist every musician wants in their band.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Agree. She's the kind that walks into other bands and makes them sound better. Band Maid's style of music allows her to express her musicality too. They are great to listen to. Thanks for watching :)

Agree. Even with their new song and seven other people on stage, she still manages to stand out :)

[@vincentgallagher7562]

I came across her, almost ten years ago - in Kansai. Typically would skirt saying such, but in person she is an extraordinary beauty. And seeing them onstage all those years ago - they were tight and one of the best 'live' bands I've seen perform.

[@ThouDailyBlab]

Yeah she is quite statuesque in appearance, I hope to see her and her mates play next year in Japan. Can't wait to seem them live :)

[@785boats]

There is really No one like our "Barefoot Assassin" !!!!!! And her on stage relationship with Akane makes Band Maid tighter than any other band out there !!!!!!

@@ThouDailyBlab MISAのベースの音は聴く者を魅了する。そして素晴らしい音に陶酔した人々はいつの間にかダークサイドへと引き込まれてゆく。 気づいた時には人々はブラックホールの事象の地平面を越えて・・・.無限の重力の底、奈落の底へと永遠に落ち続ける。 The sound of MISA's bass mesmerises listeners. And people intoxicated by the wonderful sound are drawn into the dark side before they know it. When they realise that they have crossed the event horizon of a black hole ... . . into the depths of infinite gravity, into the abyss, where they will fall forever.

It is a BlackHole called 'pigeon hole'. それは「鳩の穴」と言う名のブラックホールなのです。😅😅😅
