• Miracle (New Piano Ver... - เกม
Beautiful. Greatest song ever.
Such an emotional journey. They’re one of a kind and I’m very thankful to have discovered X Japan a few years ago.
Yoshiki played his life in that piano section. Put his whole soul out there. I'm amazed he could play anything after that, but to get back on the drums again...
A whole good song to react, it's always a good reminder that we carry on, despite what life throws at us
Great reaction. 1) You did not interrupt the song. 2) You found the piano solo to be great (many people are put off by it initially - it took a few listens for me to really appreciate that part). 3) Went one step further even to listen to another Yoshiki song. Enjoyed your reaction. Thanks a lot!
You’re very welcome, I’m glad you enjoyed the video!!🙏🏾😊
I'm wondering why your reactions never showed up in my youtube timeline before today
Yeah, I don’t know either it’s weird as hell!
Terrific song. I wouldn't say that he's better than Beethoven, but he is a good piano player and vocalist.
Yoshiki is the drummer and piano
I made a text of my own knowledge about X Japan, hoping it would have some insight youre new to.
There is a band called X Japan, which is quite literally, the most famous band out from Japan, They are the godfathers of genre called Visual Kei (Japanese metal songs with crazy aesthetics, makeup etc) they formed somewhere around mid 80's and are still going, but they were absent for 10 years from 1997 to 2008, they disbanded in 1997 because their vocalist Toshi got brainwashed by a cult and forced to leave the band. They held (at the time) their last live concert named The Last Live, few months after their disbandment their lead guitarist Hideto "hide" Matsumoto died due to an accident while drunk (it was first stated that he killed himself, but the band members were very against it, cause of how positive hide was as a person) his passing broke the whole country of Japan into grief, his grave is still visited today and there is a guitar museum in his memory in Japan. His funeral caused mass traffic of grieving fans in Tokyo, numbers around 50 000. Some even took their own life while grief-stricken. Their former bassist killed himself in 2011, he was kicked from the band from unknown reasons in 1992.
X Japan influenced the music industry in Japan as much as their conservative society, which lead to Rock music taking uprising in Japan and there is a way in Japan where they use names as Pre- and Post X Japan, on how much they influenced everything. The songs are mostly composed and written by their drummer/pianist Yoshiki Hayashi, who based a lot of the bands song from his tragic past. He was born in a frail and weak body, he wasnt meant to survive past his 20's yet he is still making music, he has been a classical pianist from the age of 4, he took up drumming at the age of 10, when he lost his father to a suicide. He started playing drums with such aggression that he was hospitalized and sometimes collapsed on stage due to immense pain and lack of air. (Art of Life has been performed FULLY only 2 times because of it) Yoshiki has composed an anniversary song for the Emperor of Japan which he performed at the 10th anniversary of the Emperor. He also composed the theme song for the Golden Globe awards and has been taking over the music industry in rock music as in classical piano aswell. He also had a comic made by Stan Lee himself, named Blood Red Dragon, and his own Hello Kitty character named Yoshikitty, he was also a big part in many documents such as We Are X! and Yoshiki: My Story.
Their past guitarist hide also had a solo career which was very succesful until his death in 1998, he had many documentaries about him after his death, but sadly many of them arent in english, nor subtitled. He was the founder of Headwax and Lemoned organisations and produced many smaller bands to bigger audiences. He is been compared to Nirvana singer Kurt Cobain, in ways he affected the music industry in Japan.
