►A LITTLE ABOUT ME: I'm Dean Wolfe, a mostly self-taught Canadian guitarist/composer/multi-instrumentalist/singer/producer/performer. I started out as a full time musician, on the road at age 17-19, then went part-time ever since, holding 'day-careers' like chef (red seal papers), spiritual health care while raising a family. As a producer I've made hundreds of my own songs for media and award winning documentaries etc. I've been in several bands including a prog/jazz fusion act nFuze, playing International Jazz festivals and jazz clubs. I mostly abandoned the prog genre in the '90s but have returned to it now with vigour 30 years later. My own prog band was rejected by record labels as "too progressive' in the late 80s, so i explored grunge, pop rock and alternative, alt-folk / acoustic fingerstyle guitar and ambient electronic as well. Recently i found shoegaze and lo-fi as well. I have a home studio that is ramping up for lots more music so stay tuned.

►Part 2: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b53IpKeoi66jrK8 0:00 intro 1:03 yolo

[@mightydegu]

Yolo is based on one of Kanami's piano compositions, so in a sense it pre-dates Band-Maid. There's a video that can be found on KZbin of her playing it on piano.

[@topographic1973ify]

Band Maid has a lot of prog elements in the music. I'm a 72 year old prog guy who has a gigantic and related Yes collection plus large amounts of other things. I love Band Maid.

[@COTTERO]

It's amazing how many guitar riffs Kanami can add to a four-minute song, not to mention the bass riffs, she is a genius.😲

[@_JimS]

I just LOVE Kanami's quick little swipes after her solo......she never leaves the smallest hole unfilled.

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Idk about beauty tips but Miku Kobato laid the foundation that make up the awesome BAND-MAID & that's a thing of beauty indeed :)

[@Kevin6059]

I can't imagine another band coming up with the instrumental parts that they do in the second verse. It's just unique and very cool.

[@rockyetsx70]

Do you suppose that even Robert Fripp might be impressed by Kanami's musical discipline and compositional detail? 🤔

[@deanwolfechannel]

I do

[@jkkansasband7056]

Hey Dean, you react to some of my favorite all time 70's classic/prog rock bands plus BAND-MAID. There must be a connection there somewhere. BAND-MAID came to be out of nowhere and I now believe in miracles. Peace. 42.2

[@GaryHolloway-810]

Such a nice comment.🤗

[@kakqu]

Love YOLO !! HAPPY BIRTHDAY SAIKI!!!!!🕊🍌🍻☕🚂 ⚾29+1

[@markbaker8255]

Saiki is the best female vocalist coming out of Japan....Happy Birthday Sai-chan

[@deanwolfechannel]

Yes happy birthday and I truly didnt know, what a lovely coincidence

[@JuanSan66]

That second verse... I think the proggiest thing the girls have composed is the bridge of their song The Dragon Cries. Nice to hear Band Maid with you again! Thank you.

[@Davey-Boyd]

Happy birthday Saiki!

[@TomClark-Futoura]

YOLO -- You Only Listen Once, 🫨 and you've been Maid! 🎀😍🎀 Thx, Dean!

[@greylocke100]

I know you have a separate video for the Live performance, but if you ever have the opportunity, check out the Shinkiba Studio Coast performance of YOLO. And pay particular attention to the left channel.

[@Space_Ranger]

Still one of my top 15 songs. I can listen to it over and over because there's some many cool different things to focus on.

[@billb.5183]

Instead of trying to pause on the exact millisecond between verses, just hit the left arrow button once. It rewinds the video 10 seconds. 😀

[@deanwolfechannel]

next time!

[@lurkmerchant]

While I absolutely love the C-side of Yolo single, I also love Yolo for the wacky as 2nd verse! Also the recording quality is really good. The vocal is close to Saiki's live vocal. Happy birthday Sai-chan. Keep rocking!

[@ApexRadius]

About the chorus, I think you're on the right track. It does have an indie/alt rock feel to it. And it immediately struck me as unique and beautiful. It moves in big swings. I don't find it paricularly poppy--it's a bit melancholy but very melodic. Out of all the neat little things in this song, that melody line got me first.

[@mikeat2637]

I don't if any of you heard already, but today's was Sai-Chan's birthday !!!!!

[@deanwolfechannel]

perfect coincidence. I can only think that it was meant to be.

[@ApexRadius]

Oh, and you're going to have to catch up on the uniforms. They've got new ones this year. They're even less obvious as maids, except Miku's. They're older and more mature so they've gone to a somewhat sleeker and more dramatic look.
