This song is all about the bass, while Kanami is also doing a lot it's the only song I can think of where she doesn't have a solo. This is Misa's song to shine. The song isn't anti-God or religion, it's more about how you shouldn't rely on just God to make your dreams come true, you need to get out there and make it happen. Most Band-Maid songs have a positive message.

I think Miku and Saiki cracked up because Miku had wandered out front and had to rush back to her mic for the LuLuLuLu (which is funny in itself) and just made it. Miku does this often , she likes to get free of the mic and rock out but then has to rush back for her vocals, 99% of the time she makes it. In one of the recent US shows during Sayonakidori (Miku sings lead) she went out front for her rhythm solo and got just a little bit carried away and didn't make it back in time so her next vocal line was sung while she was still rushing back to the mic. Talking of Sayonakidori, it's one of the official acoustic songs that's on their channel and it's also Band Maid as a 3 piece.

I'm always looking forward to your BAND-MAID reactions. It's wonderful that you can see them having fun on stage. "no god" is a staple song at their concerts these days. Although they are a hard rock band, they can do it because they have songs of various genres. As you have already noticed, BAND-MAID's songs are all recorded at the highest level and played on stage. And it becomes BAND-MAID. I look forward to your next reaction.

Two things about this song as done at the actual concert and on the Blu-ray/DVD of the concert. It starts with a 2 minute instrumental intro and the reason it ends so softly is to lead into the next and final song, Choose Me, where Saiki does an A cappella first verse intro. They are truly amazing, especially live. I highly recommend getting the video of the concert.

Hard to find a more versatile band these days. To be clear this song is not about the existence of God.

Usually Miku writes lyrics based on how the demo makes her feel or she asks for suggestions from the others. This is one of the few songs that Kanami wrote and suggested to Miku "It's about the joy of making music," maybe in contrast to the stress she experienced during Covid. They cut the epic introduction ... everybody (except Akane) takes a turn at the front of the stage. Look for fan cams from their U.S. tour.
@surfingasongwave Жыл бұрын
MISA played a Fender J-bass through Ampeg when she was in her high school/college band "Prototype" and during the first few years of Band-Maid. After that she started using five-string basses through Orange until they started touring after Covid last year, when she started using Aguilar.

You all are becoming one of my favorite reactors. A lot of fun to watch. I'm incapable of paying attention to the lyrics until about the 10th listen so kudos attempting to do it on 1st listen. Normally they end with a burn out instead of a fade out but the song right after this started with a special acapella intro so they probably felt a fade out was more appropriate and led into the acapella intro more smoothly. At least that is my assumption.

Akane's shoes are Onitsuka Tiger, slip-on model. Unfortunately the bass sound is a bit low in this live mix. The previous official live video has a clearer bass sound. By the way, what was that guitar solo just before the bass solo starts? It's an outrageous solo, and who could come up with such a unique phrase? I know she's an ingenious composer, but it's so different. But I love it when she throws some crazy thing into a song.

Band-Maid has many acoustic songs to choose from and they are all fantastic. Babymetal has a few piano versions. Such as Monochrome (piano version) on the First Take channel. There is also The One-Stairway to Living Legend and Akatsuki (unfinished version) from Legend 1997. There is another piano version of The One on the First Take channel where new member MoMometal takes part for the first time. It is beautiful of course but, it is rather short.

Bass and drum are very prominent in their songs and Kanami's guitar gets often buried in the mix at live. I seek revenge is almost like the 3-minute bass solo. Akane and Misa are friends from music school and one of the best rhythm section in Japan if not in the world. The band know that and make the best use out of it - which is a big part of bandmaid sound.

Who said you couldn't fit an entire prog song into 4 1/2 minutes? 😁 I really like Miku's guitar in the verses. As you said, it feels "late." It has this great discordant feel to it. It's not the melody you're hearing, it's the exclamation point of the melody, if that makes sense. This song is even way better in person because this video mixed out the crowd. In person, the crowd is singing the main hook as well the Lululus with Miku. It's a trip. EDIT: "Sounds discordant.' lol great minds think alike! 😉
Could I request "Blooming" (music video) next? Basically their best twin-vocals track in a while. And, if you can find them, "Puzzle" (acoustic) or Sayonakidori (acoustic) would do perfect for your idea of acoustic reactions :D Keep it up guys, I dabble as a guitar tech-/guitarist/bassist, so I truly enjoy your input while picking apart what you hear!
