"Give me a rest? WHY?" Really had a good laugh over that. Women, huh? But this one of their best songs yet, unbelievable. Happy Birthday, and just play what you like. As long as it's BANDMAID...
@@overtheedge4711 yup. Literally, give me a break. A break period is a rest period at work for example. This is simply the result of idiomatic translation.
@@DavidMISAMISAMISACook I think we are on to something here...Band Maid are forces of nature! Kanami has the power of ...well .....tsunamis, MISA is like the goddess of thunder, Akane is Like an earthquake, Saiki controls glaciers and ice (obviously) and Miku.....um....Miku....hmmm....talks to pigeons? 😁
Idiomaticly it should be give me a break. At work you take a break or a rest before and after lunch. Tears overflowing down should be l am crying. Translation from Japanese is not easy. Breaking New Gate is literally entering new territory.
I am enjoying a Band-Maid overload with all of the new content that has been uploaded to YT over the last couple of days. An outstanding brand-new official music video from Band-Maid along with several quality reaction uploads has left me needing a towel and a cigarette. :)
@@rickwagner- There is a full sized BAND-MAIKO towel?? Where can I get one because I don't remember ever seeing it in their online store. No, my character towel is not to be used and is for display purposes only, although sometimes I will cuddle up with it and whisper 'my precious, my precious'.
Shadow John, I saw the smile on your face when Miku started singing the second verse! LOL! Is she the Cutest Girl you have ever seen? WOW!! I have an OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE every time I listen to them!!!
Songs like Order & Thrill is the style I keep hoping they return to! But I realise they didn't write those, so things are going to be a bit different. Bubble & Glory were outside project songs and hopefully are not reflections of the direction they are going.
Now that's Rock n Roll babyyyyyyy! Great reaction video my friend. Just when I'm thinking how are they ever going to top what they've already done, they come out with this song. Nothing fancy just straight ahead rock. I do like the chord changes that are different. 2 songs Led Zeppelin - Kashmir Queen - Show Must Go On Not sure time you will be on live. I'm on Pacific Time here and I'm in rehearsals all afternoon and evening on Friday.
Oh man that was a lot songs wor these years Blood milk & Sky - White Zombie , Stronger than hate - Sepultura & last day am discover Onset - Band Maid ...
someone's got the uncut footage of Akane on the drums, and they're keeping it for themselves, and that should be illegal (posted on a previous video about the two song thing): not necessarily top two.. but here's two: Faith No More - Just A Man th-cam.com/video/7g4L47kEcS0/w-d-xo.html Rise Against - Survive th-cam.com/video/7EsU4SETCz4/w-d-xo.html lyrics are in descriptions for both
One of their top songs, should be a single, it has everything, beautiful singing, from Saiki + Miku, unique vocal intro. Akanes seductive back beat, + drum fills, Misa, + Kanami's featured spotlights, this tune is, heavy rock duty.
Hola Shadow John you are my friend reaction please a Band Maid - Band Maiko Gion Cho is a New single men ( no hablo inglés amigo así que hago lo que puedo espero me entiendas ) congratulation for your chanel 👍like for you men , saludos de Argentina ✌ Bay Bay Kurupooo 💕 po po 🐤
Hey Shadow John, I thought last Friday was your birthday?!? Anyways...Glad you reacted to Order. It's one of my favorites even though they didn't write that one (it's from Brand New Maid). Akane is a beast on it, and everybody shines! I agree the guitar solo is one of Kanami's best. You should check out Matchless Gum live for yet another side of the Maids. Here's my two songs if you have time, and I will do my best to be there when you stream: Lovebites - Hammer of Wrath Nevermore - the River Dragon Has Come
I spent a few hears in Japan and I can tell you is this is how they handle English. I suspect that the give me a rest is referencing Gimme a break in american speak. Kaname really hit it this time, eh?
My Favorites 'Shake that' There is no official music video ・Audio...BAND MAID Shake That th-cam.com/video/4e1M-mHmxCw/w-d-xo.html ・Live fancam(MISA cam)...Band Maid @La Boule Noire - Paris le 16 Oct 2016 th-cam.com/video/klpj19ihRNA/w-d-xo.html
Unfortunately your live feeds are blocked in the USA because of copyright grounds so didn’t see your birthday live feed. Hope you enjoyed The Birthday Massacre “In The Dark”
My two fave tracks : Efterklang : Cutting Ice to Snow (live) : th-cam.com/video/sKccgM0VN0Q/w-d-xo.html ; Sigur Ros : Von : th-cam.com/video/bA4B7-d691M/w-d-xo.html . Have a good birthday :)
Thought l didn't like this song first, but just as usual, l found myself grinning and nodding half way into the song...btw where did you find the clip? I can't find it anywhere.
I'm particular with words so although I understand that English is not their forte, clumsily done lyrics does become a huge distraction. It might be better for them to get a professional translation done for the English parts atleast untill Miku gets decently proficient in it One Ok Rock is another band that has included English parts in their songs since their early days and while theirs were also quite rough initially it was still enough to get the message across but with band maid as nicely as I would want to put it, it does get a little silly sometimes... Well, I'm sure they'll get better at it in no time but for the time being it might be better to keep it completely Japanese or if they're gonna include it, might as well do it right
A few band maid songs have lyrics that don't appear to make sense, something is lost in translation. It would be cooler if she said "give it a rest". Nonetheless, a rocking song.
Once Miku finds and hires a translator for every language, I can see 10+ versions more of every hit song. ...as a side note I'm available to be consultant anytime! Order could get quite playful if Saiki said "give me your best"
So you're doing another birthday live stream this Friday....Is this an April fools day joke John ? Just in case it's not, please play Deep Purple, Child in Time (live version) and Marionette by Mary's Blood. Cheers.
@@peterkarargiris4110 Maybe he recorded this before he did the birthday stream and forgot, who knows? But yeah, I'd love to see a reaction to Mary's Blood.regardless, Saki's solo on Marionette is just vicious! I just saw they've got a new album coming out in June called Confessions.
I can't understand Japanese, but my best guess is the song is about being attracted to someone who isn't making a move on you. "I wanna be with you, give me a rest" would be something kinda like "Just ask me out already". Again, just a guess. Regardless, the song is still amazing!

Kanami and her magic fingers... OMFG!!
"Give me a rest? WHY?" Really had a good laugh over that. Women, huh? But this one of their best songs yet, unbelievable. Happy Birthday, and just play what you like. As long as it's BANDMAID...
@laughing buddha Pretty sure if you look up "tsundere" in the dictionary, there's a picture of Saiki next to the definition. : )
Give me a rest?
Don't keep on at me... I want to be with you. Take a break... Give me a rest. Leave me alone.
It's a nice way to say "Get off my f@*kin' back!
Or, maybe, "Give me a rest from banging me all the time!" Eh?
@@overtheedge4711 yup. Literally, give me a break. A break period is a rest period at work for example. This is simply the result of idiomatic translation.
If they adjust the lyrics to "give me your best" and then add a bit more spice this track is bigger than Thrill.
I think she means "I wanna be with you - give a place to rest" a sanctuary with that guy away from the craziness of the world.
MISA MISA MISA! damn you Tsunami, MISA was just getting started when you swept over her
No force on earth can stop the power of a tsunami 😀
@@stimproid I know but awwww come on she has so many other cool bits

Two favourite songs...
Red House - Hendrix

"There's a red house over yonder ba-bay"

@John Matthew Would that be the character towel, or the BAND-MAIKO towel?

This song is Band Maid moving to the next stage.
This is an old song!!
@@salvadorsarmiento2202 My apologies, It sounded like a new direction to me, oh well.
Thanks Shadow John,❤BAND MAID❤
My favorite songs “One and Only” by Band Maid.
“In The Dark” by The Birthday Massacre.
Shadow John, I saw the smile on your face when Miku started singing the second verse! LOL! Is she the Cutest Girl you have ever seen? WOW!! I have an OUT OF BODY EXPERIENCE every time I listen to them!!!
Great song listened to it many times. How fans compare the like of Bubble and Glory to this is beyond me but each to their own.
Songs like Order & Thrill is the style I keep hoping they return to! But I realise they didn't write those, so things are going to be a bit different. Bubble & Glory were outside project songs and hopefully are not reflections of the direction they are going.
Now that's Rock n Roll babyyyyyyy! Great reaction video my friend. Just when I'm thinking how are they ever going to top what they've already done, they come out with this song. Nothing fancy just straight ahead rock. I do like the chord changes that are different.
2 songs
Led Zeppelin - Kashmir
Queen - Show Must Go On
Not sure time you will be on live. I'm on Pacific Time here and I'm in rehearsals all afternoon and evening on Friday.
Band " the warning" the song " dust to dust"
So you're about to celebrate 'Legend SJ - Baptism XX'.
Congratulations!
@ Rick Wagner NICE but he had it last Week, this is obviously something pre recorded, He liked my song I was soooo happy
Oh man that was a lot songs wor these years Blood milk & Sky - White Zombie , Stronger than hate - Sepultura & last day am discover Onset - Band Maid ...
Thanks John 😎!
someone's got the uncut footage of Akane on the drums, and they're keeping it for themselves, and that should be illegal
(posted on a previous video about the two song thing):

I don't think it is American speak. I've heard it / said it many times but "Give me a break" is more common; and I'm from the UK (Scotland).
