BAND-MAID are 5 individual puzzle pieces that fit together to make the perfect picture :)
Hi Gary I just got the news that an old friend of mine is dying. He's a guy called Lester we went to highschool together and were great friends until he joined the army in our early 20s. This will be my second friend that has died from cancer.
@@stephenchigwidden7504 Oh man i'm so sorry to hear that. I guess we just have to acknowledge that all our times are finite & appreciate that at the moment both of us are ok :)
Gary, what about Pillar-san?
@@bandmaidfanATL Omg B-M's immovable, 6th member from Hamburg, i totally forgot . Thx to you tho Pillar-san has got an honourable & deserved mention :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 yes. It's funny I haven't seen this guy for years but as soon as I found out that he was dying all the memories of the things we did came flooding back and I can remember them perfectly.
This is one of my favorites of the older songs. This, Awkward and Moratorium i could listen to over and over again. Especially the Studio Coast Live Concert versions.
Yep everyone has their fave songs & yours are just as good as any. 🙂👌
💖🤗
I agree with you. There are so many great songs on the Just Bring It album. The ones you mention plus Take Me Higher!! and YOLO are songs I always come back to. Yesterday, when I was checking songs, to show Maddy, where Miku is the lead singer, I found some old goodies that I had forgotten about. It was "Oh yeah! That good one!" all the time. For example, I found "Arcadia Girl" on the New Beginning album. Such an underrated good song I wish they reintroduced into their live repertoire.
Awkward- in my top 5, but sadly never played now, like Wonderland, played less now.
This was one of the first Band-Maid tracks I ever heard, and I immediately thought it a masterpiece of composition. Great lyrics by Miku too!
The lyrics are about falling in love with a married man and all the hurt and deceit that entails.
YES!
This song is about a woman who is having an affair with a married man and knowing she will never be number 1. Miku's lyrics are always deep.
Oh geeze lol
Masterclass on great song composition. And Miku's lyrics are among her best. From the beginning: "Your first "hello", / The sound of a puzzle piece falling into place." -- to the end: "The puzzle is breaking, / Memories aren’t enough."
💖💖🤗
More peeks into an important, transformational group known as Band-Maid. Three things I think new fans will find fascinating with this group; 1) the deeper you dig, the more you'll appreciate the members authenticity, writing and musical sensibilities; 2) your favorite song will generally be the one you're currently listening to. Note: This is a distinctive phenomenon with Band-Maid. For example, listen to "Moratorium" and then “Puzzle. Which is your favorite?; and 3) why does it seem they have no bad songs?
Band-Maid has plenty of bad songs, according to one of their interviews. It's just that they threw them all in the dumpster and only released 127 (to date) of their most awesome songs. This disciplined integrity is one of the things that keeps them at the top of the rock pile.
Thx, Maddy!
Oooohhh 🤗
I got to see the Maids in Seattle last year and I'm going to see them in Salt Lake City in a couple weeks. They are so much fun. I just hope someday they'll come closer to where I live. It's so far to drive to see them. 😂 But I'll go where I need to so I can see these amazing women. Love them completely and I hope you can love them also. Keep it up, Maddy. 👍😁
So awesome!
For a Maidiac in training seeing one of their interviews is a source of good information. Music Goldrush interview is a good one to wet your whistle on and it has subtitles.
Awesome 🤗💖
Now to complete the puzzle the acoustic version which features Kanami and Saiki will have you reaching for the tissues.
Absolutely. I might be a 65yo retired construction worker, but my eyes leak that salty water when i watch that one.
Agree. The acoustic version takes this to another level. Very moving.
+1 for the acoustic version. It’s a masterclass on reinterpreting a song and yet maintaining its essence. And yes, it’s a tear jerker for sure. ❤
Yes, the full version is full of anger and frustration with Saiki spitting out the lyrics. The acoustic version is all about loss and heartache.
@@ericifune5543 Exactly! I always describe them as this version has Saiki spitting passion and defiance, while the acoustic version is acceptance and loss. As @MSIContent said, it really is a masterclass of the same song showing two different meanings.
Since I bought the DVD of this concert a few months ago, I've watched at least a few songs from it every day. Can you wear out DVD's? They performed a 26 song set, over two and a half hours, at this gig - very hard working women.
That’s awesome! 🤗
Thanks for another great reaction!🎉
“Puzzle” is one of Miku’s best lyrics, poetic and not so abstract.
And Kanami’s guitar work is a masterclass in creativity. She does twice the work anyone else would’ve thought of.
The more you point out things you like or dislike with music, the easier it is to pick good songs for you 🎁
That’s great to know! 🤗
Don't think I could ever get enough of this song. And needless to say, this band! Only 5 more days until the Chicago Maidathon!!!!!
Ooooh!
Have fun!!!
Band-Maid is a complete package that the music world very rarely has to offer, especially in this day and age. 🙏🏻🤘🏻

Most definitely!! 💖
A puzzle that makes a perfect picture, if you will. 😇 And a piece of my puzzle that I didn't know I was missing at the time.
@@MaddyReactions Damn, you're quick at answering! 🤯Hats off! 🤘🏻
May I send you an email sometime later? There are a few gems from these ladies that you can't find on the net, or only with difficulty.
That was amazing. Vocals. Backing Vocals. The guitar player was killing it the whole song. Some Angus Young AC/DC guitar vibe. Thanks for sharing. Yes they would be great to see live. Enjoyed your reaction.
Agreed!!
This song is Pure Maid Gold. And the acoustic they performed, just Kanami and Saiki pours her heart out and flips the feel of the song from anger to heartbreak. Superb...find it on billibilli or somewhere 👍❤🤘🤘🤘
So cool!!
Great reaction Maddy, you’re really getting the B-M feeling and vibe now. I was lucky enough to be at the THT show, and yes it was amazing to be in such a positive space along with 8,000 other super passionate fans. The Maids do love to perform and they give so much back to their fans !
That’s awesome!
This song is in my top two with Secret My Lips. There is no number one. It is a pure Band-Maid masterpiece, if not the ultimate. IMHO. The composition is absolute perfection. And the arrangement really leads you on a journey. Every instrument, every voice tells the story of this song through the lyrics so masterfully written by Miku. Which brings me to the Puzzle.
The story is about a woman caught up in a relationship with a married man. And it's told from the eye of the other woman. She is falling for him, but knows his marriage prevents him from getting closer. Sometimes he says and does things that make her feel wanted and loved. And sometimes he leaves her questioning herself and their relationship. She is constantly reminded of him by things he left behind; his smell, clothes, a lighter. She doesn't want to think about it because it hurts; telling herself don't look, don't cry. She's conflicted, knowing she has to stay in the shadows but wants so much more. And no matter how hard she tries, she can't let him go. It doesn't matter what number she is. She wants that final piece of their puzzle, but deep down she knows, she won't get it. Her puzzle is breaking and she is left alone still longing.
Excellent reaction as always. ぽ
Wow!
I've been obsessed with maddy for about a month now.
And I'm also a Japanese band maid fan.
My favorite bandmaid song is (manners).
There is an official live video of me singing with (black hole).
Saiki, the vocalist, is not here, but I want you to listen to the instrumental
(on set) and (from now on).
This is a sentence of the translation software
Very cool! 💖
The Maids are back in the US next week.
Exciting!
By now we all know how extremely talented and brilliant these ladies are but I would also like to give a shout out to whomever came up with the lighting design for this video. It is one of the best I seen from any of their live videos.
Going to a Band-Maid concert, preferably in Japan, is on my bucket list.
Most definitely!!
Your reactions to BAND-MAID remind me of how I felt when I first discovered them (I wanted to devour everything by them and spent a lot of money getting all their CDs and some merchandise). This might be from their latest DVD/Bluray (which I have yet to get)!
Oooh! So awesome!
@@MaddyReactions you should also check out BRIDEAR! Theyformed about a year before BAND-MAID and are still putting out great songs! This is the latest song MV w/ new guitarist MOE (left)...

@@MaddyReactions and this is a recent live version of a song I love (the official MV has different guitarists and drummer; bassist and singer are the only original members left in this band):

You are awesome Maid Fan😊😊😊😊😊
🤗
To get to know band maid you should check out some of the interviews they did and some earlier break times like the hug and the teddybear incident and ,y favorite kanami goes wild in hamburg
Bowling Time from Nashville this year is probably the best "random" thing they've done so far haha
Star Ocean...my favorite video game. Noice.
Oooohh ☺️🤗🌸
@@bandmaidfanATL yes its second on Mt list with xenosaga at 1
At the time, this is on my everchangeing top 3 list. Love the beginning with the silhouettes and the wall of sound that hits you.
I agree!
Great reaction beauty. They are just perfect! This is one of the most difficult songs to interpret live for Saiki, however she shows all her vocal capacity. I really liked your channel, I hope to see another reaction to Band Maid or Babymetal (Road of Resistance, live in Japan) soon. See you at the next, Megitsune! 🤟🏻🦊🇯🇵🔥🔥🔥
🤗🤗🤗
Love this song. Saiki really gives the look of a tortured soul in the video. I will always preach the gospel of Band-Maid and I bow down to the ladies.
May you someday find a way to see/hear this song in the acoustic version done at the 4/13/2018 Zepp concert. Darkened stage just Saiki singing and Kanami on acoustic guitar and singing harmony, both seated. The acoustic version is full of sadness, regret, longing, desperation. It's heartbreaking and heartbreakingly beautiful. I love both/all versions.
BTW the concert, the version you listened to is from, is available on DVD/Blu-ray and was streamed live worldwide back on Jan. 9th. I watched the stream, watched the archive many times over the 30 days it was up, and bought the BR. It was/is just amazing. There are two more songs from it up on their channel, Sense and NO GOD. Enjoy your journey.
Ooohh I bet it’s awesome
@@MaddyReactions Yes, find and react to the acoustic version. In this one, when Saiki sings:
_When you said “Nice to meet you.”, It’s like hearing a puzzle piece fell into place._
_Although you certainly don’t remember, but that’s fine with me._
she is angry and disappointed. But when she sings the very same words as an acoustic she's sad and heartbroken. It's remarkable.
It's always a toss-up between this and the Studio Coast live version of this. The older version has Misa more audible than here, and it has Mincho doing her happy dance, but I like the rawness of this one and then there's Miku who has grown as a rhythm guitarist to be a solid rock at the centre of the sound and her backing vocals are confident and precise. This song has meaning for me too, my mother spent years waiting for a man who could never find the right time to tell his wife, and in the end all she got from the relationship was me. 'Even new clothes' chokes me every time, her waiting for the time when he would actually let himself be seen out with her.
Oooh, I’ll have to check it out!
Always hated long goodbyes....but I love yours...Lol!
Band-Maid lives to please their Masters and Princesses, it's their entire being.
Lol 😂 thanks ☺️
applause♪👏🎉
Yayyyy
@@MaddyReactions
I'm always happy to see you.😊👍♪♪♪❤️ 🇯🇵
They're legit rock stars.
Agreed!!
Hi Maddy, I hope you are having a wonderful night! You did it now, you are going to get dozens of requests for the acoustic version of this song with the lead guitarist Kanami, AKA Kanamincho, AKA Mincho playing an acoustic guitar and singing backup vocals with Saiki (lead singer) which will break your heart. While you are on it, you might as well react to the acoustic version of "Anemone" that followed it at the same concert. I'd be happy with whatever you decide you want to react to next. Take care!
Ooooh ☺️🤗
I was there!
It was my first Band-Maid Okyuji!
Since then, I have attended three more Okyujis. I was dead tired and super happy at the end of each Okyuji!👍😉
Ooooh! So cool!!
❤🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
🎸🤗💖
Excellent reaction Maddy! Really enjoyed it! What’s good Phil??
Kanami is amazing. That is all.
💖
🤘🤘
💖💖💖
It's so much fun to watch you getting into BM !!!!!! But, you just scratched the surface......take a listen to Freedom live, Manners ( I think is you're style ) and their new MV From Now On. After these 3 tracks you will be hooked for life !!!!!!
Ooooh 🤗
IF you can find it, listen to the acoustic version of this song. Studio version of "Puzzle" is an argument. Acoustic version is a lament.
Nice!
One thing that a lot of reactors do is cut off the captions for the songs that they are watching. It would be nice if we could see them also since most of us don't understand Japanese. Just a suggestion!!!!!!

Try Sokoninaru - Brilliant City. That'll give you something to love.
🤗
You can call yourself a Maidiac now. I think you've earned your promotion from Maidette. Your ID card is in the mail. Look for the Pigeon at your window.
Yep you have to earn your feathers to progress from Maidette :)
Lol awesome! 🤗💖☺️
My interpretation of the lyrics is... the side-chick falls in love but she remains the side-chick. So, eventually she has to make a decision on whether to let go or not.
Oooohhh
Please try BAND-MAIKO - secret MAIKO lips
Oooh
I know that Kobato writes the majority of the lyrics, but for a band that has so many songs about relationships I know absolutely zero about any relationships any of the band members may have. Well, that's besides Misa's relationship with alcohol and Akane's with bananas... They are all in their 30's now (I think Saiki is close) and could all be married with children for all I know. Any insight out there? Not that I think I have a shot or anything, just curious.
Interesting
Warning
I’ve done that one. 🤗
"...but, that's fine with me." - Saiki & Miku
Brilliant duet action.
🤗
i was there😊
this is the concert where i met @k.h.6005 for the first time😅
Ohhh wow!! That’s awesome
J-Girl bands are more like sisterhoods than just band mates. This is especially true of BAND-MAID, SCANDAL, and Babymetal.
So true!
