Is This BETTER Than The Original? | BABYMETAL - Monochrome Piano Version | Reaction

[@jakemuller8626]

The new single called Mirror Mirror is already out along with the album release, also they announced a World Tour including Asia, Australia and US Festival like Blue Ridge, Louder Than Life and Aftershock, so hopefully you'll get the chance to see them live, is gonna be a fantastic year for BM fans. This Piano version just keep melting my heart, i can't get enough of SuMetal and her beautiful vocals. Thanks for sharing this and see you next time 🦊🤘🌈

[@MacTaipan]

When I heard of this performance, I knew that it was going to be great. But BABYMETAL already had a firm, unrivaled spot in my heart, and I couldn't imagine my respect for them (and especially Su) increasing even further. Yet this took it to a whole new level. And I think this will turn out to be an important point in their career, as finally there is no denying that she is a world class professional singer. I am very grateful to the TFT channel for this unexpected gift!

[@emb5091]

Same for me and I 10000% agree!

[@BruceCruce]

Love them too, after hearing Moa's version of headbanger i really wish she would sing to more though

[@martinmetal7481]

I watched your faces at parts that really got to me, and as i thought, the same emotional look on your face . Great reaction, and as Marty Metal said in comment below , go check out subtitles 🤣🤘🏼🦊

[@Marty-Metal]

excellent content Septa-Metal and SOARE-METAL, did you guys notice that there was English captions, time to watch it again and cry all over each other....lol

[@Icipher353]

This version is Su showing us aspects of her vocal range that we don't normally get to see with Babymetal's usual style. Most of the time she is powerful, but here she is subtle and displays a lot of vocal technicality.

[@Grington300]

Great reaction. It was already a beautiful song, then they did this ... and have you seen the live performance from the shows in January yet?

[@hiroyukitanaka5941]

FreddieやKurtやMcCartneyの声も大好きですが SUMETALの声は魂を揺さぶられます🤘🦊🤘 SUMETAL's voice is soul-stirring

[@fox_3591]

The moment i heard the piano, i knew it was a MASTERPIECE. Everything that BabyMetal puts out just BLOWS YOU AWAY. Nothing but GREATNESS comes when blessed by the Fox God.

I saw Babymetal last Sunday in Yokohama. They announced a world tour. The bigger news was that MomoMetal is now an official 3rd member. She was initially on rotation to fill in, but now she’s a permanent member!!!

[@kerimmejdoub1381]

It's not the first piano version they done of a song of theirs.😉 They also did Akatsuki ( unfinished version @ Legend 1997) and the One (Stairway to living Legend) in a piano version. Always so emotional.

[@flugelhornoldman1362]

Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。Su and Moa proved that they can do anything. They have forced people to headbang with their heavy music and sharp choreo. Now they can depict various images by just singing and project them into the listeners' brain to move people emotionally. Thank you BABYMETAL. And thank you Koba, the producer ot BM, for your serendipity. Some 13 years ago, you certainly discovered something amazing and sacred for us.

[@st4rkdrak390]

I love your reactions guys! and no, i'm not crying 🥺

[@septasoareousrex]

Thank you so much!!!! 🥰🔥🤘🦊❤️ Sending hugs!!! 🫂

[@jonathangoyette6793]

this version make me cry each time

[@road-runner]

Nice one, thanks! Which version do I prefer? Probably the live version first then this one and then the album track. Su commented that she was surprised about the interpretations we, the fans did about the song. And to be fair it was mostly based on the visuals of the lyric video and the rhetoric resources they used on creating the metaphors in the lyrics. I've said many times that the song is a huge allegory and that implies multiple metaphors and layers of significance, but not only the bombing theme. The important message is the hope in the end despite all the catastrophic events. Until next time!

[@crimson0119]

Babymetal needs to put out an unplugged album...Even in this simple environment, Su is still the perfect performer, with her expression and gestures... Akatsuki Unfinished is still my tear jerker from Su, but this is running a close second in terms of emotional performances....sorry No Rain No Rainbow from Legend S XX... I've seen some of the other First Takes, and I think Su just set a whole new bar thats gonna be hard to surpass 🥲🥲🥲🤘🦊🤘

[@AlizeeDefan]

Glad I'm not the only one, that believes there are direct references to Hiroshima WW2 1945

[@BlackArr0w]

So, this is not the first time Babymetal made a piano version of one of their songs! YOu should check: - "Akatsuki" live at Budokan 2014, and the piano version "Akatsuki Unfinished" live at Legend 1997 in 2013 - "The One" official MV from 2015, and the band new The First Take version, that's pretty similar to "The One - Stairway to Living Legends"

Monochrome By Babymetal:- It's really atmospheric which I like. Divine Attack brought the hype and Monochrome brought beautiful vibes. The next single will bring the heavy vibes I hope. Well, this song certainly shows that the few second snippets don't really spoil or give away the songs at all. The chorus with the is catchy, but the drum riffs are the jam for me upon first couple of listens. Since the snippets don't reveal the songs, I'm wondering if the five songs that will be released aren't gonna reveal the final album as a concept album, once released and listened to in full and in sequence, as most concept albums are meant to be listened to. Being that this album is conceptual, and should probably be listened to as a whole and in order, this could be a fun slow-burn reveal to. As of now only two original Babymetal are in the current status, Suzuka Nakamoto (Su-Metal, Main Vocalist) & Moa Kikuchi (Moametal, Backing Vocals). The third member of Babymetal will be announced soon.

Nice reaction. Babymetal giving us EMOTIONAL DAMAGE. I never wanted an unplugged album more than now. Way Back when Su and Moa and Yui were part of Sakura Gakuin. One of the things they learned was do the best you can always. Su and Moa delivered that for us extras added. They gave us a minor miracle by standing still while performing for a whole song. I bet the two of them couldn't wait to be able to move again. Su started to near the end, but she did stay in place. I noticed Su kept looking up. Then I realized she's facing Moa. And we know how Moa likes her shenanigans. One smirk from Moa and Su might have lost it. If you noticed Moa didn't flash those dimples of hers. Moa has the power to crack anyone up. So proud of them. Babymetal taking their own songs out of the box of Kawaii metal. Their surprises will never cease to amaze us.

👍 👍 Great job. Such a beautiful performance. I really enjoy watching you both react to BabyMetal. You have such a respectful approach and provide honest reviews and analysis.

[@septasoareousrex]

We are so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the beautiful compliments🤘🦖🦊

[@PlezurBazar]

Which version do I prefer? yes. Kitsune dao!

[@minamihideki7123]

I am not a metalhead and I am not an Japanese Idol Otaku too. Furthermore I am actually a pretty Japanese pops hater. So what brought me to get so hooked on BM? After all, this is the answer...

[@julianhernandez5234]

For me I go back and forth between the piano version and the live performance of Monochrome at Makuhari, but if I have to choose one I think the Live performance wins for me

[@fernandoloya6325]

❤Great reaction did you guys notice Yui was one of the three hooded girls she was in the holding hands part- she seemed to be the shortiest in the middle-cheers

[@BlazinNSoul]

Unfortunately it's not a bonus track on the new album lol. That would have made an already banger of an album even better!! Regardless great reaction and really i feel this is a renaissance moment for Su-Metal!! Looking foward to their tour with Sabaton in April!! Rock on Ladies! 🤘💕🦊

[@johnschultz7765]

Su- did not have the same interpretation of the song as the fans took from the lyric video. The three in white are ostensibly the backup singers harmonizing with Moa on the oh-oh-oh lines. Can't be Su- or Moa since they are already on camera and this is a one-take. I am not convinced they are actually singing, even at the end where we no longer hear Moa with a clean vocal. That is, the harmonies could be harmonizer channels off Moa's clean. My guess is the harmony voices are on the backing track and the trio are a mime chorus (like Babybones were a mime band early on). I think Soare is right in saying "stripped down." But this is not raw. There is quite a bit of reverb on Su-. And to my ear, the recording engineer kept pushing the slider up, especially at the end. A reminder that The First Take is a Sony promotional channel. And their only rule is just the first one-take. Nothing is in the rules against plug-ins or effects. And I heard things that would preclude its use here, autotune is just another plug-in. So, if we are clear-eyed about the production, then we can just sit back and enjoy what is an incredibly good performance.

SU-METALの曲に感応する能力は信じられないほどです。

[@Egarza1421]

A little clarification for the the girls in white robes. Like most I don’t think they are back up singers. I’m pretty sure that they are them rumored third member momoko. People originally thought that the white robes were a reference to the white robes they wore during the IDZ shows but those are actually the exact same robes the 10 apostles wore at their last concerts in January. They wore them when they sang The Legend which is the song they used to tease Momoko becoming the new third member at their 2 concerts on April 1st and 2nd. If it is them in the robes Moa is the one in the center su is the one on the left (yes she is actually that short and when she stands directly next to Moa on stage she is barely taller than her) the one on the right would be momoko ( yes Momoko towers over them she is around 5’3 or 5’4 while Moa is 5 and su is 5’1).

[@johnschultz7765]

The trio in white cannot include Su- or Moa since this is a one-take. They are most likely the mirror unit that was on-stage at the Makuhari shows. I am unconvinced either way on whether they were singing. BTW, Su- is taller than that.

[@Egarza1421]

@@johnschultz7765 actually su is that short it caught me off guard too. I was watching the wowow stream of babymetal returns and during road of resistance su and Moa stand right next to each other when su gives Moa the mic and they were virtually the same height. Su’s height is regularly accepted online as 5’1 and moas is at 5
