REACTING TO MIYAVI! l PART 2

[@TricksyTrinity]

I'm so glad you went back to Selfish Love. It is definitely one of those songs that shows off his talent.

[@TricksyTrinity]

Oh, i should also mention, the tambourine is attached to his one foot, and he's playing bass drum with the other. That box in front of him is called a "gigpig". it has a bass drum and a symbol on it. He used to do a lot of that one-man-show type stuff back in the day.

[@sueellen360]

I love Miyavi so much, one of my favorites 😍 Even his newer material, he's very talented. He was in a band with Gackt, Yoshiki (X Japan) and Sugizo (X Japan and Luna Sea) but X Japan's reunion got in the way. I'm still waiting they reunite some day, even if it's for 1 concert.

[@MacRyanMac]

WHAT?!? Did they make an album?!?

[@sueellen360]

MacRyanMac No, they only played live once in LA in 2007, a shame because the songs were really good. But then X Japan reunited and you know, priorities LOL Beneath The Skin is the only song that survived so far, love it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZylYXWEbstsmck

[@YuM3Moroboshist]

He was also in Due Le quartz his first band. You should check them out, they have alot of good songs like Re:Plica

[@Musicramkoz]

could you recommend some good songs?

[@satsami]

You can tell from his old old songs to his newer ones that his slap style has been carefully developed and got better over yeaarsss and he finds new creative ways to make his sound unique! You can always tell it’s him on guitar. And yeah there is this interview he did in London where he admitted it hurts and sometimes he bleeds lol. Hardcore, huh?

[@katiekerr6306]

You should do a reaction part 3 and do some of his even OLDER songs. Like Ashita, Genki ni Naare, Freedom Fighters, and Kimi ni negai wo,

[@ratsoftheplague]

i've seen him live about 4 times now, twice during the slightly older style, and twice more recently (he still does occasionally play throwbacks) and HE IS SO IMPRESSIVE. the energy he has on stage, the ENTHUSIASM - this guy is a fucking experience and i am so glad i could see him so often until now. also, as a fun fact: Miyavi and Gackt used to be besties and play pranks on each other when they were on radio shows and what not

[@Widmouno]

Old Miyavi is my shit. Unfortunetely i don't enjoy his newer stuff as much, but he released so much amazing music in past that i am not even sad, because i can just go and listen to it once in a while and have a blast. Really glad you reacted to some of his older songs, and i'm hoping you're going to enjoy Torture, which is my favorite song from him!

[@PurpleFlowersPath]

Same! My favorite era was the "Kavki Boiz era" (2007 to 2008) and also his songs that are even older then that.

[@almacarimerebollo5619]

My favorite song is kimi ni negai wo, my second favorite is itoshii hito 😍 (rock ballads

[@ACEsParkJunheeWreckedMeHard]

I really loved his older songs too, but after he got international famouse due to a movie from Angelina Joley, he changed so so much... There is only one newer song I like but I hate the fact that this song has no full MV or any full audio in KZbin. I forgot the name of the song, but it was the one with a drawn MV from 2015 I guess^^

[@tessr8830]

@@almacarimerebollo5619 bro my favorite songs are the same and in the same order lol

[@tessr8830]

Also I miss the old Miyavi,he's really different now..so..american

[@ShinyBusterBaby]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!! THIS MAN IS A FUCKING LEGEND!!!! I knew you were going to love that slap base intro!!!!

[@ickyickyptang9433]

LOVED your face when Selfish Love started! 😂 Now... You REALLY need to do a Gackt part 2! Original Sin and Ghosts (live) are AMAZING!!! Love your reactions!

[@nekocloud25]

I still remember the time when it was hard to search for his song and video. I even ask my friend in Japan to buy his albums that time. Look at my boy now. *proud mom*

[@aikaa99]

I have seen him live twice already and he's really an incredible artist I can't describe it with words 😍❤️

[@MacRyanMac]

I'm not jealous at all ... :p

[@jrocknpoppingirl]

I've seen him four times and he just gets better with every time you see him. Did you go see him when he was in Toronto this month? I hope you did and are planning on making a video about the experience because you deserve that experience!

[@donnazasgoat2274]

I've seen him twice in New York and it's impressive. He's unreal. I don't even mind that I don't speak Japanese. I was also lucky enough to see L'Arc~en~Ciel when they played Madison Square Garden in 2012.

[@justinunderwood8063]

Miyavi is a truly amazing guitarist with soo much skill, when I went to see him last year in London not only was he incredible but he played a Song called 'Where home is' which in my opinion was just fantastic, I would recommend that you listen to this song Ryan

[@KizunaEno]

MIYAVI is absolutely amazing live!! He exudes so much charisma and his stage presence is no joke!!

[@niji_no_saki]

Love yr reaction in part 2! Stumbled upon Miyavi way back in 2004 and remember thinking this guy is effing talented. His early material took a while to grow on me. Thanks for making the reaction video, it reminded me of him and how great his music is. I'm so jealous that somebody can have THAT many talents and look so damn pretty

[@yugiohfreakforever]

I am glad you still is impressed by Miyavi~!! He's amazing live!! Hope you react to more VIXX soon too. There is a specific performance I want you to watch that has been blowing up. If you want the link just let me know. You won't be disappointed AT ALL~

[@decoCalibrator]

I remember watching "What's my name" live. It was at a club in Florida, the venue was perfect and he was perfect. One of the most memorable concerts I've ever attended in my life!

[@HighRoads316]

With all the VKei/ JRock bands you've done it would be cool to see what you would think of Screw, Sug, or Royz. I always love watching your reactions :)

[@MacRyanMac]

Thank you :)

[@smiley-skeleton4598]

Brandi Nicole "...or Royz" I second that. 😄

[@laurak-e8797]

He did "What's My Name" live on Ellen. It's amazing! He followed it with "Let Go".

[@onesonglory33]

so glad you did a second video. miyavi is my favorite artist and his music is sooooo good. you really should look into his live stuff. there's a ton of videos of him live out there and it's just as crazy as you would think.

[@kaylinickelson6599]

These three songs were the first ones I heard by him. I've been listening to his songs for years now and he still blows my mind with his guitar playing and voice. XD

[@karenshig5052]

He came to Mexico like 10 years ago and was amazing, I was actually crying when he sang Superhero, one of my favorite songs ever. I love how he keeps evolving , i really enjoy everything about his music, past and new. You shoul listen his collaboration with HYDE (from l'arc en ciel). Greetings and I love your videos.

[@nanaka12323]

I'm listening his music for 11 years already and I never get enough. It's not like you're listening some music for 1 or 2 years and it ends because you're getting older or sth, you throw it away, he's the only one artist that I'm listening for sooo long :o And I tried to play guitar in his way! It is possible but takes a lot of time and practice to get this unhuman level :D And I'm also impressed by this japanese perfectional attitude that if you choose something to do (like playing guitar and being awsome :D) than you do it for your all life to become perfect in this one thing, that's impressing.

[@Roxst1905]

THANKYOU FOR MAKING IT 2ND REACTION !!!!! WHATS MY NAME IS A MUSTTTT , oyeah the gazette will produce their 9th album for this year after last time dogma in 2015 so be preapared for 2018

[@icespT]

I've been listening MIYAVI like for a week and then I found your video ,oh my God! I'm you in the video LOL BLOWN AWAYYYYYYYYY!!!. I'm just sitting alone talking to myself with your video like yes yes! I'm totally feel you!!!

[@hipgirl25]

He came out with a new video today on 88rising called Rockstar!!! And he created his own style of guitar playing, if you watch him live, he ALWAYS changes the song someway so it always completely different!!

[@NyamiNyatou]

Thank you for bringing back my love to Miyavi!

[@joanne_wyd]

I just wanted to say that I love you and your reactions ❤ yes

[@MacRyanMac]

[@KuroiSpica]

I'm sooo glad that you made a part 2! Thank you! 💕. I'd love to see you reacting to even more of him! Especially "Are you ready to rock?"

[@NQQ613]

I'm so glad you did a 2nd video on miyavi. I think you should listen to 'guard you' it is one of my favourites.

[@jrockalwaysanime]

I'm glade you loved Miyavi.. I enjoy watching him playing his guitar. YOU NEED TO REACT TO A.C.E CACTUS AND CALLIN'

[@kiwikudos555]

"What's My Name" will forever be one of my favorite jams. Love Miyavi forever. ❤ There's a reason he's called the Samurai Guitarist.

[@creativebodyflying]

He's one of my favorites! Probably my favorite Japanese artist. ❤‍🔥

[@jonnq]

Miyavi was my biggest love in my teens, 10-12 years ago. His old stuff is amazing! He handles genre changes so smoothly, he can pull of anything! Check out my favorite, "Girls be ambitious".

[@marthalegrand29]

0:41 and so xDDD you're awesome!!! Thank you for this video :3

[@marthalegrand29]

P. D. Please react to Vaniru xD

[@MacRyanMac]

Thank you for watching!

[@SelphieFairy]

I think an interview he did mention sometimes his hands would bleed from slapping the strings. D: which... ow, but at least we know he is human lmao.

[@Neonblutx]

Hell yeah I wished a second part. you are the best ♡

[@MacRyanMac]

[@KuroNekoXIII]

Miyavi is one of the funnest lives I've been to! I've been watching him since 2003! (I'm old...) I wish you could check out his earlier stuff, but good luck finding it & good luck not getting a strike for it. You would love his Gigpig days! And for fun facts! Miyavi was actually aimijng to be a pro soccer player as a boy, but sustained an injury that prevented him from playing. So he poured his energy into guitar! Other fun fact is that he has talked about the importance of getting manicures to keep his nails strong. He highly suggests doing it for guitar players that use their nails instead of a pick.

[@jrocknpoppingirl]

You were still reacting to his more newer stuff here though...I wish you would check out his old stuff like Freedom Fighter, Ku Ku Ru, Ashita Tenki ni Naare, Girls be Ambitious, Kekkonshiki no Uta, Itoshii Hito, Pop'n'Roll Baseball, Boom-hah-boom-hah-hah, SMFB, Senor Senora Senorita, Gigpig Boogie, Dear My Friend Tegami wo Kaku yo, What a Wonderful World Subarashiki Kono Sekai. These are the stuff that got me interested in Miyavi and then I was a fan through the releases of all of the songs starting with the album What's My Name. That was my real start as a co-miyavi (what the fans are called and we are such a tight and loving family).

[@camilasancho5051]

And you still have a lot to hear of Miyavi. The real beginning is so much visual, you can check Du le quartz, that’s his older group.

[@arishanikka9974]

Hehe 16 mins of MacRyanMac falling for Myiavi 🤣 ...like the rest of us 😉

[@skadiorcanic]

Miyavi makes everyone happy and i love it

[@MacRyanMac]

how can you not be happy listening to miyavi?!

[@sunnysweetsunshine]

i've seen him live for 5 or 6 times now. and its so impressive on stage.

[@MelinaYuritza]

You NEED to react to this two songs: Are you ready to rock?, and Strong (Miyavi vs Kreva). Also, did you know that Miyavi was in a Movie? He plays the villain, and holy shit, he's good at being evil.

[@meirin3086]

since you like miyavi you should look for videos of him playing live! his live playing is amazing and there's great live recordings of him playing "selfish love"

[@MyaaaaaLoVerock]

@macRyanMac he is in the middle of a world tour now. keep an eye on him. also,I love him so much,been fan for over 10 years now

[@voodoolilium]

You can't not be impressed by Miyavi. He is just fucking amazing haha

[@mcbill7352]

This guy is insane. Surely one of the best guitarists

[@Plasmaspy]

you should check out his live performance on the ellen page show

[@PurpleFlowersPath]

[@koufukuron11]

Love MIYAVI's music. I would like you react to his old videos. Just because I want to see your reaction to his young era

[@JohnGarcia-nb3ce]

Too bad Ryan missed out on flashback. it's the song that basically brought me to him so it'd be awesome if he reacted to it :D

[@bleach3292]

My fav miyavi song is itoshii hito its an old song but a bit different style u should check it out. Also there is an impressive whats my name performance on his 30th birthday.

[@kauneyli]

I love your reactions so much !!! His vid 'are you ready to rock' is amazing !! Plus, react to some of his lives :D

[@Yozakura1985]

How did MIYAVI learn to play guitar? It's actually as you guessed, he picked it up and just played it. He was only 17, youngest member of his band back then (Due le Quartz) and MIYAVI even wrote the songs for them!!!This guy was born to be playing the guitar (and sing, act, be ambassador for UNHCR etc.etc.)!!!I will see him live again in March and April, so excited!!!

[@Yozakura1985]

Btw, had the chance to shake his hands already twice!! And can say: YES, THEY ARE REAL!!!!! LOL The fingers are really long, but the hands are soft and his nails are prettier than those of any girl (of course, he needs them to play without guitar pick).

[@jpotion9860]

you have reacted to the most important VK deliverer for the West: X Japan, Dir en Grey, Girugamesh, Mucc, the Gazette BUT ONE EXCEPTION...you missed DespairsRay!!!

[@crazymnky99]

YASSSS Despairs Ray ! its so sad they disbanded

[@snowbloodapple]

crazymnky99 like girugamesh 😭

[@ondria]

I agree DespairsRay needs to be reacted to. I would love to see that.

[@leemikudo7544]

WOW I'M WITH YOU!! DespairsRay should be here

[@patriciac.2796]

Realises 15 years later that it wasn't desperRays or DespairRays 😂😂😂

[@TamaoUchiha]

I love watch this video so much, Ryan reaction is so good, it would be so funny if he do a video drinking shots for every 'how', that he said in this video lol

[@TheGACKTfan]

+MacRyanMac do you know how he got into music . He wanted to be a soccer player but he got injured really bad so he picked up a guitar and just played it and he was influenced by Larry Graham

[@banishedair4518]

He used to play Shamisen guitar, so when he picked up a guitar he tried to play it the same way, and came up with what he calls "an essentially Japanese guitar style"

[@rosestatic7258]

You look like a real Canadian with that hat😜 Great video on an impressive artist😊

[@puutans]

Your reaction is exactly what I wanted to hear!!! lol. That is the same as mine, when I saw these videos at the first time.

[@gillb6366]

Recently my sister was visiting me and told me that he practices for like seven hours a day.

[@MacRyanMac]

He's an inspiration!

[@davidclarey4461]

You need to react to do as infinity you wont be dissapointed.

[@nnnbbb430]

Miyavi world tour USAｰCanada dates announced.May 16 Toronto The phoenix concert theatre!

[@danielamorales321]

さわたま he’s going to be in NY on March 20!!

[@achmadfauzi3196]

Before he departure from visual kei scene, and pursuing career on global music and acting for some film, he and the gazette are on same label records and management, called PS Company

[@hlilee6413]

You should listen to miyavi's new song that just came out for the anime called kokkoku.

[@Roa-chan]

I found out about Miyavi not too long ago, maybe like in October or November, but I just love his music SO much. I saw him in the movie Unbroken and he was so hot I just had to look up who he was😂 And I learned that he was a singer so of course I had to listen to his songs. And I fell in LOVE with his music. I love the way he plays guitar❤ My favorite album is Gagaku cuz I love EVERY single song in there. There's an entire playlist of his music on KZbin. You should definitely check it out. Some of his old music like "Girls, be ambitious," "Jibun Kakumei," and "POP is dead" (which are all AMAZING) have music video so maybe you can make a part 3 reaction😂

[@twalls16]

Prepare yourself, I have a whole list of bands you can react to. First up is Lycaon, they pronounce it as "lee-con" but in english it's "lie-con". I would recommend the songs "Mayaku", "Plug into the socket", or "Gypsy", to see their different sides. But whatever you do, you absolutely have to react to "Shadow". Mayaku and Shadow are my absolute favorites by them.

[@noorali-ql9kl]

I Love miyavi

[@notlostgirl9255]

Just stumbled on this video after a long day. Watched the first one too. Love seeing people getting into him for the first time. Interesting fact: Miyavi gets the nails on his right hand done and uses those instead of guitar picks. Did you make it to his Toronto show on the 16th?

[@BrandydocMeriabuck]

You know when you listen to all your old music that you forgot about and wonder why the fuck you stopped listening. I’m doing that dead hard right now.

[@mariahmikaze6518]

Im not sure if its close to you but, miyavi will be in toronto, ontario on the 16th of May (he is amazing live)

[@MyvIsLove2]

oh my a kpop reactor who reacts to jrock! thats sooo cool

[@CamilleNoir]

Miyavi has been making me Moist since 2003!! XDDDDDDDDD I AM NOT SORRY! ahahahaha First time I saw him live I lost my shit!! i lose my voice from screaming every time i go to his concerts!! he's live performances are fucking immaculate!!

[@baozibang9369]

Miyavi was also in a Hollywood Movie that was directed by Angelina Jolie, is married and has a Family xD Here is the Link to the Miyavi Trailer: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmPIooh7hNFrpZo

[@MacRyanMac]

I forgot about the movie! Thank you for reminding me! I want to watch it! :D

[@naimfebruary9913]

Same with a9. You should react to their older stuff.

[@banishedair4518]

I recommend Moon, Chillin' Chillin' Money Blue$ and Gentleman

[@sugeyolvera8518]

I Love Your Videos! Miyavi Is Fantastic! You'Re Fantastic!!! ♡♡ ¡REALLY! ♡

[@MacRyanMac]

[@sugeyolvera8518]

MacRyanMac ¡Thank You! ♡

[@sleepingrose3116]

You should do another reaction to Miyavi with Freedom Fighter, Girl's be Ambitious (his first song) and Ashita Genki ni Naare.

[@kamcosmic]

senor senora senorita is such an underrated miyavi song

[@zinniaeridano7782]

You should actually react to him acting in "Unbroken" that'd be so f-ing good!

[@kannalixu7340]

a person who doesnt blown out with Miyavi is not a human too 😂😂😂

[@lachikisgurl]

Love but was hoping you'd dive into his older music like Jibun Kakumei and Hi no hikari sae Todokanai, Dear my love, and possibly Papamama although that one doesn't have an MV

[@helenhernandez8916]

I love MIYAVIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII. THANK YOUUUUUUUU

[@AuliaAmalina]

HYDE in solo please, he done 3 solo album already before VAMPS project starting

[@komalzia6566]

yes please react to more of his songs, I love his two songs, 'ahead of the lights' and 'afraid to be cool'. please do react to these as well!

[@TamaoUchiha]

I really enjoy see your reaction, I can't stop laughing xD

[@cookiemobers5650]

My 80 yr old dad is a blues expert, he's a walking history book of blues. I'm seeing him in a few weeks and I'll be showing him Miyavi's style. I know he's not going to like the actual music, but he will be blown away with the talent. He understands that the Japanese are advanced in some aspects and American music is boring shit. I''d film a video of my dad reacting, if I can. That would be an interesting reaction video

[@DawnOfAnomie]

Soo.. do we know if Ryan is actually going to miyavi's show in Toronto next week??? :D

[@kaiceliera8725]

I feel like you'd enjoy Revenge my LOST it's like if Panic at the disco and Fall out boy had a baby that was Japanese and thought he was a vampire lol Also this 2nd Miyavi video is A+ I hope you get to see him live sometime cuz he's awesome!

[@Berrycat7781]

Check "Dancing with my fingers" MIYAVI vs Daichi Miura

[@곽준영-e1c]

i always enjoy your video!!! thank your for uploading one of my favorite rockstar:)) and i hope you upload video about reaction to hide!! (x japan's amazing guitarist and also legendary solo rockstar in japan) i wonder how you react to his style and music. i recommend pink spider, rocket dive (mv or live all good!), and doubt 97 (studio live)♡♡

[@whatsyourname049]

One of your favorite bands collabed w/ nano’s “Savior of Song” so react to her songs, please?

[@tomo-chan8521]

Please check the new song of Wagakki band, Synchronicity. Its a mix of their usual stuff with jazz

[@ablekwok9130]

He did Selfish Love in Live. Real hands

[@K20-1]

Why did it have to be survive? =_= Torture or Are You Ready to Rock are awesome! Ryan would of loved the grit of Are You Ready to Rock...

[@aleeliTG]

Nice video!! So, I know you've reacted to Bigbang, how about reacting to Gdragon ? Btw, greetings from Mexico. 😉❤

[@TheLittlelan]

I clicked on this so fast .... Also please do his song guard you he has done for his daughters

[@igiveyouvision3397]

Glad if you like Miyavi papa 😆 Edit: why papa? Cuz he is such daddy material, he has 2 child and still hot! xD

[@banishedair4518]

Of course you were blown away by his older stuff. Especially Selfish Love, his guitar work was far better before he started focusing on djing.

[@K20-1]

Would be cool to see Ryan react to anime intro songs? Songs like Shiver - Gazette, Enamel - SID, Ready Steady Go - L'Arc An Ciel, etc. So many great anime intros from top bands ^_^

[@K20-1]

Ignore the ?. MYV was mushing my brain :3

[@wiarthaamangkucewe]

You'll love his song "senor senora senorita"
