What do YOU think of Magie?!
Not the best one, to put it mildly, and Saiki's vocal is too loud in the mix.
I like everything except the chorus (riffs, bridge, solo, verses are good). I suspect that's not going to get any better since I've heard it from Yokohama Arena.
@@JuanSan66 Yes, I even had this crazy idea that maybe they just wouldn't sing the chorus, but just jump around during it to the accompaniment of the rhythm section, but I won't risk it.
@@viaverde3153 Probably the song would sound better as an amazing instrumental
For me, it's an interesting song. I like it when the Maids explore a new sound like Balance or Bestie for example. It’s not formulaic, if I may say so.😉
Unprecedented? I don't know. But Band-Maid does what Band-Maid wants, and we are all better for it! 😁
I definitely think they have become more comfortable after their 10th anniversary.
And yes, I also love the MISA mini solos in so many of their songs!
Everybody dance now! You got it Saiki!
If I hear them play "Magie" live at any future concert, I might just need some assistance getting out of the arena. You can't help but move like a maniac (Maidiac) during the song, and then your body IS going to pay the price!!!!!
I LOVE THIS SONG ..THAT GUITAR LICK IS SO SICK
If you’re looking for Kanami’s solo just start at 00:00 and hit “play”. 😂
She's always so busy. 😁
And they said solos were dead in rock. Clearly they are not listening to BAND-MAID.
One of my favorite solos from Kanami in a while, cool song. Thanks for the reaction!
Another great song and Saiki must have been really working hard during this show, she's sweating a lot in this song.
This song grabs you by the back of the neck and makes you get up and dance!
The song is fun. It's Band Maid's party song. Was expecting Bestie, Shambles or Memorable myself.
It’s like Kesha was working on a new song and Kanami said “let me fix that for you”.
A very festive song. Cool Mincho Dance.😄
lol, I saw that "jump jump" by Mincho-chan.
Great live song from Band-Maid!
If it has the japanese pronunciation, is Mah-ghee-eh, with the strong G, if has italian pronunciation (magie means magics in italian), same thing but with normal G
"Magie" is magic in Dutch as well, but pronounced somewhat like you would say magee in English (or Mah-ghee if I use your way of spelling), but with a relatively soft G, which I am not sure a lot of languages use.
@@MaartenT Same meaning in German as well, but with a "hard G", like in "to go" (IPA /maˈɡiː/ )
The new album can’t release soon enough! Btw, considering they have a song called Toi et moi (french for you and me) and Memorable ( could be either french or english pronunciation) I would assume Magie is said with the french pronunciation so « Majee »!
Quickly becoming one of my favourites. That opening riff is ALL '80s hard rock... I love it. Up there with the "Clang" riff.
This is an absolute banger song this pump me up, really making me more excited for their upcoming album ❤❤
My favorite of the three songs they unveiled last year. First heard it in Osaka and couldn't stop jumping. A much better version than later at Yokohama Arena.
I agree. I believe Saiki is getting more comfortable using head voice, too.
❤❤get jumping. Concert material!
6:26 that part of the solo reminds me little bit of the beginning of “Spirit!!” solo
It's another banger of a song IMO. Different, but still very much Band-Maid. It's a bit in the vain of Corallium (one of my favorites btw) to my ears. The Riff is mental, the solo is great, the rhythm section flows so well and tight. Saiki sounds rather enthusiastic than strained to me, but for sure navigating clearly at her limit (for the moment) here. I'm pretty sure it will be a crowd pleaser live, the crowd at the Osaka Gigantic Festival at least did jump to the song even despite the heat. At this point I would also like to thank my parents for the wonderful genetic mix they did provide me, which made it possible to develop a nice pair of ears who is able to hear every single instrument and note clearly and distinctly here too. The Mix is great IMHO. But ultimately the mix is also a question of taste: many old-school garage rockers love guitars, guitars and even more guitars right up front beside some vocals here and there 🙂. I have the strong impression, that Kanami composes more like a jazz or classic musician, with the whole ensemble sound in mind. Compared to the "classic western rock band" sound - Guitars more Guitars - quite refreshing IMO - and I say that as a Guitar player. But I'm coming from the Jazz-Side, so the B-M mixes do not sound very unfamiliar or strange to me, it's a tight ensemble sound and I like it.
Not naming names, but I go back and listen to huge hits of the 80's with talent level 100. .... Then listen to MAID. Talent level 9000. 🕊️❄️🍌🥷🎸
There's the elements in the music, especially the chorus which Japanese audience of every generation can relate to. That's the traditional Japanese summer festival sound. It's programmed in every Japanese's gene. 😂
Basically Saiki's singing flute part in the chorus. I can visualise young girls in Yukata jumping to this nostalgic tune (chorus).
It's an ultimate West meets Japan (both old and modern) song imo.
Thanks Wave. Great reaction! I am now wondering how this will sound on the album, since we first heard live. 🤔
I love this girls nice reaction greeting from germany
Why change a formula that has worked perfectly for so many years? Right, there's no reason, and I'm so down with that because somehow they still keep creating something new. 🔥 It's almost 'dunkle Magie' that Darth-Mincho uses. 🤔❤🔥🤘🏻

Kanami got sick of rules and formula 😂
a straight ahead guns'n'roses groove from kanami all throughout the song
Think 'Nightrain'
Magie will replace Jump by Van Halen?😆
@@kitsunedao3895 🤣
Great song, only weakness for me is the lead vocal melody in the chorus. The rest of it over the top in the best way. Saiki as become such a powerful performer and her best stuff showcases her senses of rhythm and timing. (Had to edit this, the chorus melody is growing on me, but I love Saiki's rapid lines before the guitar solo best.)
Maybe it's a Saiki's head voice training song, and I can definitely see big improvement from her performance at Yokohama Arena.
And now the song itself is growing on me because of it.
When I heard this on the yokohama stream I thought "oh dear saiki you are not hacking that chorus this could ruin it, maybe a bit less
yelling" I still think the same. I am hoping the studio version will be much better.
The song is basically great
Vocals will be more controlled in the studio version, I'm sure.
I agree, she is straining her voice a lot in this and it's very noticable. That said, this is after a couple of hours in the set, so that's pretty normal, especially since this sounds like it is a bit above her comfortable range. I got a live CD of one of the early Unlucky Morpheus Live performances of 2010-2011 and you can hear Fuki's voice deteriorating during those sets as well, especially since it's a very raw recording (they were only a couple of years old and have always been a self-produced band). There aren't a lot of vocalists who can sing with this intensity for 3+ hours without it reflecting in their voice. It will obviously be very post-produced/cleaned up in the studio version. And I actually have to commend them for not trying to post-produce this performance too much before releasing it (like they did with their early live DVD's/Blu-rays), I personally prefer rawer performances so I appreciate that a lot.
@@MaartenT I'm sure the studio version will be fine, not because of tricks but because she has her voice coach on hand and they take it calmly.
@@stevekane4922
Absolutely, I wasn't implying she isn't capable of singing well, I typically love Saiki's vocals. But also, their latest studio releases (especially after going to Pony Canyon) have gotten more post-produced, especially vocally (I would prefer a tiny bit less of that personally, but it's a stylistic choice) and not because they need it but because their probably more J-Pop oriented producers just like to do it like that. There is absolutely no way they are going to release that album without it going over it in post with a fine-tooth comb. That said, this apparently comes off of the Blu-ray that comes with the special edition, the Day Of Maid performance, and I love that they kept this more raw. It's a nice mix of both styles on one release, so everyone can have it the way they prefer (or just enjoy both ways of production).
@@MaartenT I agree , t's not her most comfortable key and in a live performance it's bound to sound strained. I'm sure it will be more polished on the album. Other than that, all the other Band Maid goodness is there.
I think there is a misunderstanding or misspelling here. The title of the song is absolutely "Magic".
👍👍👍
👌🙏
🤘🤘🤘
Who's magie... Or what is magie? Is that has meaning... Hhe... After Shambles... New Band Maid Songs seems like always bite 80/90 Rock Vibes... Nothing wrong... Even though for me their music become bit more "Rich" on some point... Even there somebody wants they back to their track "Band Maid" formula...
Oddly enough, recent bandmaid songs also has 60s, 70s Japanese song vibes.
Of all the Maid songs , this one is not one of my fav's. They are kind of straining their voices, not their style, but, A good song nevertheless. It does have a feel of old late 70's to 80's vide. Just my take.
It's a live song deep into the setlist. I'd reserve judgement until you hear the studio version.
@@LouisFLamas my thoughts too, particularly with the chorus. But I think they'll kick it into shape, mainly by changing the way she sings the chorus.
@@stevekane4922I think she's trying to master head voice. The chorus sounds much better in this video compared to Yokohama Arena performance.
I agree with you Wave about the formulaic arrangements, but not in a positive way. Sense, Shambles and Protect You have generally also conformed to this- similar pace (fast), half time drop, short (slow) then fast solo from Kanami and a less melodic vocal line and guitar solo . This is why Bestie was a nice change- pre Unseen World style. I'll give it a while, but I really don't like predictable music from any band. I even gave my favourite band- Black Sabbath, a miss during the 80s when they adopted that U style of rock music.
So was I the only one who thought it was crazy?
Still telling that guy from Hate? how much she doesn't care about him. 😏
Maybe it's time for Kanami to take some rest and to allow other peoples to write some songs for Band-Maid.
