This might be too cute for you, but there is a super cute video of Su, Yui and Moa dancing to a cute anime song with Sakura Gakuin from 2010. About the time this song was recorded. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmHMnqibatp7n9k&ab_channel=R.F.Wu

- This was BABYMETAL's first song! When they first recorded the audio and all that, Su-Metal was 12 years old (her birthday is in December so she hadn't turned 13 yet) and Yuimetal and Moametal were 11 years old. Here is a video of them recording the song in 2010: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5OlZnh8p8esmtk (very short, under 1 min) - "Doki Doki" is like an excited heartbeat, its an onomatopoeia. - The Babybones guys don't actually play instruments. They just mime playing the instruments in their videos/concerts. The people who write/record the instrumentals for BABYMETAL's studio recordings is different for every song, a lot of it is done on a computer as well. Kami Band does their live shows as well, as you know. - The budget for this video was very low, as this was still when they were a new small sub-unit of Sakura Gakuin. They had to do all sorts of different tricks to try and make a cool video with very little money. - The girls where shocked at first when they heard the finished product, as none of them knew anything about metal music. They said they didn't "get" metal and were scared by it until they seen Metallica play live and that is when things clicked for them. This is also a big part of the reason they all idolize Metallica so much.

[@safrisaleh412]

This is Babymetal first single which Babymetal is still under Sakura Gakuin or Cherry Blossom School. This is the birth of Babymetal. Su-Metal was 13, Yuimetal and Moametal was 11 at that time.

Those people dressed up are called the Babybones, and they weren't really playing the instruments. When Babymetal was first formed, they didn't have the budget for the Kami Band.

[@jakemuller8626]

this is where all begins, i remember back on those days they release the MV, a friend of mine introduced me to this vid and i was blow away with so much cuteness and the metal song, never thought they gonna hit the spot and become so bigger, it was just a fun vid and i was proud to know something that was mostly for only "japanese" viewers or people who loves the japanese culture. Anyway this, Megitsune, Line! and Ijime Dame Zettai are the most cutest vid from them since they look (and they are so young) in it, i just recently watched a reaction vid from them (Babymetal) reacting to IDM MV with eng subs, so good. Also when you're doing your maths with Kaitlyn... kawaiiiii UwU Kitsune up! \m/

Blown away again, but still not full into it, later i was watching FB Reactions and then i realize they hit out of Japan, i was impresssed but still so much things to do to not go full into it and without knowing about Sonisphere, or any live shows, finaly last month watching reactions about Dimash and Nightwish, Babymetal reactions pop out, and fell in love of their live shows inmediately, updated to everything they release and into the fox hole for sure lol btw i think i saw you b4 on another reactions vids, may the Fox God bless you \m/

[@Dragon-Believer]

Vocals recorded Oct 30 2010, music video shot in Oct 2011. Babymetal's very first song recorded and their first music video. They didn't have a full album to release until early 2014. Not the first music video for the girls. Su recorded 2 music videos for Karen Girls in 2008. They all did a few music videos for Sakura Gakuin in 2010 also. Yui was a big fan of Karen Girls. Babymetal covered 'Over the Future' by Karen Girls in a concert in 2012. Yui said it was a dream come true. She knew Ayami Muto who was one of the 2 other girls with Su in Karen Girls. The concert where they covered Over the Future was for her and Moa's 14th birthdays 'Legend of 1999'. Yui had been going through a hard time in life earlier with her family being in the hospital and she would listen to Karen Girls. It was her dream to be a member. That was why she started dancing and singing.

[@andrewlopez1906]

Second Guinea Pig approved video (= They've kind of grown out of the song and lyrics but they recently played this song (with Momoko) in a stream last year ( about a month ago) with new remastered music, and it sounded really good. You're one of the few people not weirded out at 4:30, I wasn't expecting it back when I first saw the video.

At this time, most people still didn't know about BABYMETAL, but a very few people who liked to find strange things in Japan had already found them. In 2013, I watched a video on youtube of 2 little girls in Sweden dancing to this song and I was surprised how they found BABYMETAL.

[@karu-metal1943]

Oh I forgot to put su was nearly 13 and Moa and Yui were 11 the band was called babybones they weren’t really playing this is the definition of kawaii metal

The band in the background are actors - Babybones It was late 2012 that the Kami Band were gradually introduced. However, the music in this period can see be fabulous - see Megitsume - the musicians employed must have still been off the wall good

[@Wombatmetal]

The song was recorded in 2010, the video was recorded in October 2011, and the song was released as a single in 2013. At the time the song was recorded, Babymetal was part of a larger group, Sakura Gakuin, which they split from, Su is 18 months older than Yui and Moa. So 6 months of the year she is 2 years older, the other 6 she is one year older. Makes it confusing at times. They were 11 and 12 when they recorded the song, and 12 and 13 when they recorded the video. The video is dated 2012 because that's when Babymetal created its own KZbin channel separate from Sakura Gakuin. Beginning of the split.

[@drumobsession8644]

You know you’re a Babymetal fan when the first thing you say on an old video is “tHey’Re LiKe oNe cEnTiMeTrE taLL”

[@CortanaX]

I bought the Babymetal album when it came out in 2014 with that song on it absolut banger of an album

[@docmetal8194]

Great reaction Kaitlyn! Yes, the girls were small & cute as a pailful of kittens (or Guinea pigs). As for the song & video, I like to remind myself of what I was doing at the ages of 10-13 (not much). Also, the Japanese language translated to English can be imprecise & can even appear awkward or nonsensical to us westerners. That said, when I look at these older vids I cannot help but admire the courage & perseverance the girls demonstrated as they continued to travel their path into the heavily male dominated world of metal. Looking forward to more BABYMETAL. Arigatou! 🦊🤘 #notacult

[@pepsiman990]

Another one of their early vids you should check out is Iine (pronounced Eenay not line) and in that one Moa and Yui rap, yes you read that right, rap.

[@Dennis-DK2]

great video thx, but if you recorded 20 min, i want the 12 min i was cheated out off :D

[@daggerSLADE]

Moa and Yui were both born in 1999 and Su in 1997 (December) .. so if it was recorded in 2010 it stands to reason that the younger girls were 11 and Su was 12 goin on 13 .. love your reacts and funny asides

[@Zedem0n]

Haha one much easier way you could've gone about this whole math thing is to just look at their birthday year : 99 for Yui & Moa 97 for Su. Then you can just add up. In October 2010 when this song was first recorded, Yui & Moa were both 11 years old (and 4 months) and Su was still 12 (and 10 months).

[@autohmae]

Congrats on posting regularly and thanks for reaction to Babymetal again. You said they were young.... but you have to remember before Babymetal, Suzuka/Su-metal had almost 10 years of experience in the entertainment industry, And these days Babymetal has been around 10 years... so she is 23 and has 20 years of experience !

[@Inosuke_Hashibira75]

BabyMetal can’t be stopped! 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻

[@hedoban_nord]

Cool reaction - i always have to smile while watching DDM, it's so cute and funny. There are a lot of live versions of the song, which really slap (f.ex. the Budokan one) - the music is way harder than in the mv. Btw. if you want to know what the song's about I recommend (as always) Andrew Hartley's analysis here on KZbin.

Du-metal blog posts on blogspot are good for reactions.

[@shma1israel]

Heya, quick heads-up: don't count back those years, just remember two numbers instead: 1997 for Suzuka, and 1999 for Moa and Yui. Those years will come up again whenever you watch any of the Legend 1997 or Legend 1999 performances, because those concerts were meant as a celebration of one of the girls' respective birthdays. As far as Su is concerned, you can safely subtract another year in most cases, as her birthday is December 23rd, so, for most of 2012 she was only 14 years old (and 12 when they recorded the vocals in 2010). ;-)

[@0okamino]

December 20th for Su. However, December 23rd is Hinata Sato's birthday, so it's still in the Sakura Gakuin realm. :D

[@wiccan75]

Moa: "I'm not small."

[@flugelhornoldman1362]

Great! & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 "Doki Doki" signifies sound of fast heartbeat, so this song is about a school girl who overslept and got up quickly and dressed in haste asking repeatedly what time it was now. And she also got excited expecting what was going to happen today at her school and in future. Now in 2021, Su-Metal is 23 and Moametal is 21, so no one expected this song would be performed again. But BABYMETAL again did the unexpected ! On December 12, 2020 Su-Metal, Moametal and Momoko Avenger performed this song in special online concert. Su and Moa's voice sounded very cute as if they were 12 & 10 year-old girls. (Moa said in an interview that Su was good at mimicking her childish voice. And I think so is Moa). That was a surprising Christmas present for fans ヽ(^o^)丿

First, thank you for saying you haven't reacted to Babymetal in a bit instead of saying "its been a minute ". That phrase is getting a little tiresome for my old ears. 🤣 Secondly, I could only hear the guinea pigs when they were clanking their salad forks on the plate. Thirdly, very nice reaction as always. Su's birthday is December 20th while Yui and Moa are in the middle of the year so that makes the math more difficult. I can't help but laugh at Su's ears every time I see the rotating heads scene. 😁

Talking about time, 'been a minute' and Doki Doki Morning is a good fit though. :-)

*Kaitlyn doing math* Me: "Come on... you can do it!" :D Need more recommendations? 1. Band-maid just released a new song from their new album: "Manners" 2. Nightwish is one of my current favourites. One of the best vocalists in the world. Take a pick from any of the songs from Wacken 2013 concert. Fair chance you would be blown away. "Ever dream", "song of myself", "Storytime"... 3. Lovebites is another all female metal band. "Raise some hell" and "Holy wars" from 5 of a kind concert Or their videos to "Shadowmaker" or "When destinies align". By many considered among the best bands in the genre. Also got a musical genius in Miyako on guitar, who has a history similar to Kanami. 4. Jinjer?

[@belichterdonborek7593]

October 2010 they were 10/11. Su is about 1,5 years older than Moa and Yui. Her birthday is in December. You and Moa June/July. That was the first song. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gmW7pJZ6gM56fLc That was world premiere

[@glas.guy6991]

Love your reactions kaitlyn esp. BM. I don't know if you have listened to a group called The Hu but if you hav'nt heard them they are a Mongolian folk/metal group that mixes throat singing and metal using traditional Mongolian and western instruments to great effect. Could you please react to Song for a Woman feat. Lzzy Hale it is amazing. A lot of reaction videos are fake with a lot of jumping and shouting and omg's that it gets a bit boring so it is refreshing to see someone who's face says a thousand words without even opening your mouth.

Don't call Moa small! The video was filmed in 2011 so Yui and Moa were 12 years old and Su was almost 14. The backing band aren't a band at all. They are a group of dancers call Babybones that are just playing air guitar. Babymetal used backing tracks for their first few years until their producer was able to get the awesome Kami Band together. Doki Doki Morning is translated as "Heart Pounding Morning" and was first released on Sakura Gakuin's 2010 CD. Also nicely ironic vintage T-shirt.

Preferred BABYMETAL when they were kids. When Yui Mizuno left they became a different act. I don't even listen to the new material. 2010 to 2018 was the best. It's not "Woman-Metal" (they are all in their mid 20s now), it's BABY-Metal.
