The only reaction channel I know that starts off with a guy on his seat and could end anywhere on the floor. PLZ MORE BANDMAID

[@dondavi5798]

I think the best thing about the band is how every instrument is clearly heard. the basist, the drumer, lead guitarist.....you can here each one and their not drowned out like sooo many rock songs.

[@vyren2030]

[@svogender]

Yeah..!! They have a great producer..!!! 👍

[@Medley3000]

This song sounds like Led Zeppelin. Awesome!

[@sheldoncooper8199]

@Don Davi You gotto hear their Band Maiko Songs 8 to 9 Instruments and you can hear EVERYTHING They are Gion Cho and Secret Maiko Lips

[@outwest1014]

Miku and Saiki flew to NYC to work with producer Tony Visconti (David Bowie & T Rex) to recored the vocals. In January interviews in Japan they said Visconti was very nice to them and they enjoyed NYC. Saiki said one difference was that when changes were made to the song, they sang the entire song again vs just doing the changed part as in Japan. She also said Visconti before making a change he would ask if they thought it would okay with Kanami. Akene, Kanami, and MISA flew in later for their 2 NYC concerts which Visconti attended. This song gets better every time I hear it. Hope they work with him again. I would love to have been there for their entire visit especially when Visconti met Kanami!!

[@fernandoloya6325]

I remember Miku bringing up on stage his rare Zemitis and show it off to the crowd awesome I love Miku small pigeon so kawaii ❤❤❤❤❤

[@m.a7473]

This is what I gathered from multiple interviews. The lyrics of this song was written by Thomas Kenney who introduced Band Maid to Tony Visconti. Tony got interested and offered them to produce a song. Miku thought somebody was trying to con them but just in case sent a demo to Tony anyway, and Tony replied, ‘Lets do it’ so they recorded the instrument parts in Japan, then Saiki and Miku flew to NY to record vocal parts with Tony. Result is this song. According to Miku’s account, Tony was very nice to girls to the point they felt they were visiting relatives’ grandfather. Tony apparently thrifted a lot of pre-recorded sound tracks to the point he had to ask Miku if Kanami would be mad at him. Miku told Tony ‘there would be absolutely no problem.” Kanami later stated although melody was changed, core of her music was left totally untouched and she felt she got a seal of approval from the world top level producer. Tony later visited their live shows in NY, both shows, just like any grandpa would do.

[@RobinC63]

Thanks for this background info.

[@sacluvsBM]

@@RobinC63 one important fact. No one seems to know who Thomas Kenny is. He is not listed on ASCAP or any other listing of professional singer / singwriters. He belongs to no Union or any other musicians' representative organization and no one can produce a photo of this guy. None of this means he doesn't exist it just means he can't be found anywhere. He would literally have to be just a regular guy off the street who can't be tracked down and who just happened to write a song Band-Maid approved of. Also Tony Visconti has used pseudonyms on previous songs produced like listing John Lennon as Winston O'boogey on the Bowie tune Fame. Would be nice if someone could definitively find Mr. Kenny.

[@m.a7473]

@@sacluvsBM You are right. the only reference to Thomas Kenny that I could find was in Tony Visconti's own Facebook page when he talked about "Conqueror" album release sometime in November, as "My good Friend". Then Miku and Saiki mentioned Tom-san and Tony-san were both present at the time of the recording. So I was assuming he must be real.

[@m.a7473]

By the way, Kobato just announced that they will be performing at Budoh-kan, a year from now. That venue houses 14000. This is huge.

[@monocyte2210]

@@m.a7473 its every japanese band's dream to play in Budokan. its like the madison square garden of the US

[@lawrenceflower8418]

This is not Heavy Metal or even Hard Rock. It’s 70’s Heavy Rock. Thank you Band Maid.

[@rossmudie9298]

See reminds me of 'black sabbath' and its awesome 🤘🤘, so i agree 70's totally 100% and it's cool as hell. 😂

[@blackyvertigo]

I agree. Japan is bringing it back to the best eras for rock and this band needs more exposure and recognition.

[@POWER-LINKS]

Here was my post to some idiotic comment elsewhere here: Remember, not all of Mozart's paintings were masterpieces. But all of their music is straight off of 70's Rock Radio. I have proof. (he is now very confused.) lol

[@rossmudie9298]

@@POWER-LINKS i'm fkin confused too now 😅🤔😳

[@RobinC63]

I first played in a Rock band in the 70's and I totally agree with you. The first time I heard this song it took me right back there.

[@tifosinh]

This song was killer. First time I'm hearing it is right here. Reacting with you brother. So good!

[@fatboynick4104]

Thanks to you reacting to this band, I am now into Band-Maid. These gals bring it big time. Recently, I found another all-female Japanese metal band called Lovebites. You can hear they are heavily influenced by old school metal and power metal. The first song I heard by them is The Crusade - Battle In the East live. It's got an Iron Maiden vibe going on. I think you will get into them as much as Band-Maid.

[@crackerican69]

Lovebites, Bridear (second favorite behind Band-Maid), Doll$Boxx, Scandal, Aldious. The list goes on and on!

[@freewheeler2go]

Yep!!! Stumbled across my first Band Maid video 4 days ago. I ... can ....not ... get ... enough. Soaking up all their videos. Simply amazing. Their talent is incredible. Their songs are mesmerizing. And they rock harder than just about everybody at the moment. I sincerely hope they do a US tour - SOON! I have already ordered several of their studio albums. This group is LEGIT!

[@1957akash]

As they said in recent interview, this is the slowest BAND-MAID song ever. they also say like "We couldn't do this slow song untill now. We've grown". If you sing or play any instrument, you know that just playing slow is easy, but playing slow song good is not easy.

[@vlastik]

Band-Maid is getting better and better!

[@mattbrown9631]

I have put "Reincarnation" in the comments of every video you have done for BAND-MAID, and will continue to do so until you do a reaction to it.

[@ToObs75]

Woooooo YES, i absolutely LOVE your Band Maid reactions. They're the fkin best man!! I still cannot believe you didn't do 'Rinne' (Reincarnation) yet, you're missiiiing out, duuude. You're gonna lose your shit! Also 'Puzzle' live, 'Moratorium' live, 'Take me higher' live, the list goes on, I can't wait for you to discover these songs.

[@Medley3000]

As I said before ハニー (Honey) is Band-Maid's most underrated song. It is a diamond in the rough. Akanes drum work in the 2nd half of the song is unprecedented.

[@sacluvsBM]

Not their song but they made it their own by improving on the original about 100x. Much of the drumming is double tracked but it is all Hirose Akane. Studio release of Screaming is also off the hook.

[@oooppiikkk]

Also this song was 100% and there were subs, but I guess you had to be watching the MV lol Band maid (Live) puzzle, dont you tell , turn me on

[@VladimirChupin]

@@threemonkeysk kzbin.info/www/bejne/iKnQg5yNfb9miqs - that's the start of Kanami's solo leading to MORATORIUM. CLANG live from ZEPP Tokyo: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hYSpp4p_g8iKfck With a tapping intro from the 2019 Islington/London gig.

[@hahaman7211]

Secret my lips, Puzzle, alone and Moratorium are some of my favorite from Band Maid. I would recommend those songs( live performance of course ) if you want to do another band maid reaction.👍👍

[@jamessoda8915]

I definitely love the bluesy feel to the song. I haven't heard a bad one yet from them. So talented. My reaction is the same as yours every time I hear a new song from them. Ya gotta love em'.

[@lalaland3477]

You need to do the next Band-Maid reaction in a hospital, with a doctor next to you, cause I'm worry about you!

[@ChrisPage68]

And male nurses... 😉

I was waiting for this the whole day! :D

[@genraltoast5389]

You need to react to Band-Maid's Alone. Its one of my favourite songs by them.

[@jonathonrichards3471]

This song is phenomenal, video and music have such an interesting message in them. I love this song and like you, my new favorite BAND-MAID song

[@dlokazip]

"Reincarnation" should be your next reaction video, but the title is in Japanese. So, when you search for it, it appears like this: BAND-MAID / 輪廻

[@mikometal4882]

Already suggested him ! Moratorium too!

[@iomanalili3419]

You gott do the 'REAL EXISTENCE'!!!

[@RudiTheMan]

This is going to blow some more brain cells,

OMG YES THANK GOODNESS YOU REALLY GET IT !!! THEY ARE F>>>>G AWESOME !!!!

[@andreaspedersen3952]

"Moratorium" live next?

[@mrh.p.reaper4936]

The guitar solo in real existence is amazing if you really like band maid I've been listening to them for a 3 years it is insane

[@franshendrix1404]

I also think the message given in the video is so so so clear: we gotta stop killing this world.

[@frankpuncekar5051]

Puzzle, Moratorium, Turn Me On, Live same concert as Inset, you’ve got a lot of catching up to do Best Rock /Metal our their, you already said it “there is no weak pillar in this band” you were right so I was shocked that it took so long to react to another song after your reactions to Onset I promised they keep getting better. Let’s hear another Band Maid just quicker this time!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@michaelhanson4848]

I've never felt the urge to watch the original of whatever you're reacting to, but no I have that urge.

Check out the live version if you get a chance. The Dragon cries was performed at their Valentine's day live 2020.

[@brettmarlar4154]

I subbed to their channel last night and woke up to this on my phone. I had a very similar reaction, without the pauses.

no cure bro when u obsessed with band maid...like me

[@rubyvolt]

The Dragon Cries as we destroy the world. At least we have great music to listen to.

[@JDsHouseofHobbies]

I bet it would only take one hand to count the number of videos that MISA is wearing shoes. Reminds me of The Cars song, Let's Go. "She's so beautiful now, she doesn't wear her shoes."

[@platatrinity8857]

For me the BEST Rockband on the Planet!!! Listen to them since there first Album came out. LOVE IT!!!!

[@yuhc77]

The warning is even better, the drummer is faster and she sings while she plays, only 3 girls band from Mexico, that's the real deal

nice to see you Mr.rock'n roll I recommend you "moratoritm live“

You’ve reacted to most of their best stuff so far but one you really need to see is Moratorium live.

[@williambradley6736]

lol, you're rolling on the floor and I'm just like umm, yeah

[@SagaciousTwo]

I just bought the Conqueror album, and I have been warped. I don't think you have reacted to the final song on the album yet, Reincarnation. The video is shot like an old home movie, and the bass just carries the whole song.

[@joaquinjulve7814]

Hey dear Mr. Rock & Roll. I don't know if you know Band Maid is releasing a new album on December 2. Prepare your heart, I'm worried. Best regards from Chile, at the end of Southamerica.

Dude, I won't stop recommending this two until you react them: Moratorium and Don't You Tell ME, both songs Live.

[@eulhmodel1129]

for more great music from japan i would recommend you to check out wagakki band - Ikusa or Senbonzakura you will not be disappointed

Suggestion: BRATS - "どうだってよかった (Doudatte yokatta)", "決まりごと (Kimarigoto) LIVE."

I second third and fourth that

[@kanyon7613]

Moratorium live or Puzzle live next!

Corrected BAND-MAID member pronunciations from Japan: Miku (MEE-koo); guitar, vocals. Saiki (SA-ee-kee); vocals. Kanami (KAH-nah-mee); lead guitar. MISA (MEE-sa, MEE-sa, MEE-sa); bass. Akane (AH-ka-neh); drums.

[@Decay0]

Alright how has this man not reacted to MAXIMUM THE HORMONE yet? Another Japanese metal (mostly) band, also has a rad female drummer. Check out Yoshu Fukushu by them. As for more BAND-MAID, I recommend "BAND-MAIKO / secret MAIKO lips". It's a fun one they did.

[@jimmyj7816]

As a few others have said on here, your next band from Japan to check out should be Lovebites. The song that amazed me was Edge of the World- Battle in the East Live. The song starts off slow then kicks up the tempo, similar to the pace of Nightwish-Ghost Love Score. Their music mostly sounds like metal from the late 80's/early 90's and their two guitarists can shred. Check it out!

[@Tomo-nyan]

BAND-MAID最高だよね✨

[@Medley3000]

This song sounds like Led Zeppelin. Awesome!

[@franshendrix1404]

Signed Band-Maid....what is your request? Shirt, banner, pictures? Let me know and I will do what I can to make it happen. Otherwise, I have a shirt double and I am willing to send it to your PO-Box. Please let me know and I am going after it. Seriously, no joke; will send.

[@thisworldneedsme]

Dude, BAND-MAID is amazing, the music itself is amazing but take some damn time and watch the video itself will you? You might understand the story and the lyrics a bit more. Just my advice. P.S. The video is new, the song isn't, it's been out a while now.

[@kiddhkane]

Do you seriously expect quality and intelligence from a reaction video? They are literally the lowest common denominator.

[@HeckinMoonMoon]

X Japan!!! They are an 80s rock/metal band from Japan with a MASSIVE following outside of the States. Please try Art of Life (live in 1993). Its a 30min song so I understand if you dont, but you're missing out. It's an absolute masterpiece! Other, shorter, songs to try are Kurenai, Jade, X, or Silent Jealosy. Trust me, these guys are masters and the drummer is a BEAST. Even Gene Simmons from Kiss said that if they spoke English natively, they would be the biggest band in the world.

[@TimberWolf762]

Have you heard The Warning? Their cover of Metallica’s Enter Sandman went viral 6 years ago when they were all under the age of 15. Now they are working on their 3rd album, doing a 30-city North American tour, and their Kickstarter is at 420%.
