These lyrics are mad clever. These dance are mad cute. These musicians are mad tallented. These Babymetal are just doing what Babymetal do. 10 years on, and I'm still listening to the same 3 albums. Am I trapped? Does it really matter? As long as I can remember Yui dancing, I'll be forever happy.
I agree, BABYMETAL is a band that makes me very happy, and this song in particular. Although the lyrics might not be very positive (I have no idea, to be honest), the music puts me in a great mood. And it's one of the songs that no other band could give us but BABYMETAL.
I love this song because I love the SKA genre. YAVA fuses SKA and Metal. Very underrated song cos, not many reactors react to this. Some in the Metal community didn't even knew that the SKA genre existed unless you listen to No Doubt and other bands that play the SKA genre. The Kami Band is brilliant and brutal. Enjoy your reaction. Thanks for reacting to this. Kitsune Up 🦊🦊🦊🤘🇯🇵🇸🇬
I love how all I could think of was Sublime and Pepper and completely forgot about No Doubt when listing ska bands I listened to hahaha. Glad you enjoyed the reaction! That's pretty surprising that most metal fans don't know Ska, I thought it was a pretty widely known genre.
This is my favorite song. Btw, I am a middle aged Japanese. The word "YAVA (yava-i, yaba-i, やばい、ヤバイ、ヤバい・・)" is originally a word that Yakuza, the Japanese mafia, uses. It means bad situation, or bad luck, and so on. So this is a slang and dirty word and in old days parents taught their kids, including me, don't use that word. However recently young generations in Japan, even teenage girls like to use this word. Now the meanings change further, they use the word as awesome, cool, surprised, delicious, and so on. We can find Su- or Moa also Have used this word in their talking in SAKURA GAKUIN period. I think this song title is used as old meaning. They have sung teenage girl's anxious emotions, or identity crisis of their youth period. It is a kind of about differences about sense of feeling or appearance from other girls . But It might be unique feelings only in Japan. I also love the development that starts lightly with the rhythm of Ska, and goes dark or heavy from the break down part, getting along with serious lyrics going. Thank you from Japan.
What a relief! I thought you couldn't upload this one. YAVA! is very nice catchy ska-metal song, many fan girls like it. YAVA! means like "Oh no!" is like an expresión of surprise or terrifying. Fans first want to name the song as "Chigau" but that didn't happened. Kami Band intro is one of the very few, you can hear Míkio-sama guitar solo here, R.I.P. Every musician is top notch, drummer Hideki Aoyama is son of another legend, all of them transform into Kami Band the moment they go to performance with the girls, is like a switch inside of them, same for the girls of course. 🦊🤘 Till next time, beautiful megitsune ❤️ LIVINGLEGENDS NOTACULT OTFGK 10BABYMETALYEARS
That logo is pretty cool actually. YAVA is one of my favorite songs, and this performance with the Kami intro is just superb. Ska is just one of the many genres they pull off, so always expect the unexpected with them. Have a great vacation, we'll still be here when you get back. Take care.
Appreciate you giving me a hand and lending me some extra logos and helping with my audio issue while I was on the road lol. This is the one time I'm sad that every song of theirs is different because now I just need more ska babymetal, that was awesome haha.
@@gombers You never know, they will probably come back around to it again. There's a finite number of possibilities when it comes to musical genres and sub-genres. Thinking about it, I just realized that includes classical music. Classical music put to heavy rock, if done well, is absolutely sick. I think I just realized I need classical BABYMETAL in my life, but I digress, they will probably come back to it at some point depending on how long they keep going for, which I hope is another decade, but we shall see.
YAVA is where everything or anything is the same and at the same time different. Yui face for this song is very very animated and cute. Yui Death Stare is the second from Su.
Great reaction, thanks! Definitely one of my favorite songs and the Kami intro is really insane. I love the ska vibe, the super cute choreo and that breakdown is something to behold (it deserves to be played full blast hahaha...) See you next time!
⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤔 The official lyric is "ヤバッ!" (Yaba!), which is a clipped form of "yabai". Originally, "yabai" meant "dangerous", but in this song and popular usage, it is also used as an exclamation. "Oh no!" is a pretty good equivalent in English. Aside from the solos from Su, 'YAVA!' is my favorite track from the Metal Resistance album. And some of my favorite BABYMETAL choreography. There are groups that have spent years trying to make thick sludgy ska metal sound good, and BABYMETAL pulls it off the first time. I would have done a whole album like that, but they moved on to the next thing. : ) Even with the translation it's hard to know exactly what this song is about. Something about making choices when things seem similar. Or insisting that differences, even small ones, are important and make things vital and interesting. There's a tendency in Japanese culture to smooth over differences for the sake of collective harmony. That has both positive and negative consequences. This song was written by some of the same folks involved with 'Megitsune', etc.
I would have loooooved a whole album like this. They did this fusion genre so well. Yeah I really liked that the lyrics are so vague and ambiguous though, makes for a lot of discussion or just all together accepting that this song is a bop and let's all skank around lmao
Lyric translations directly from Japanese to English are very difficult to make sense of sometimes. In the end, I just don’t bother too much. Lol Glad to see you more upbeat in yourself this time. You were definitely not yourself earlier that morning were you. See you next time. 🦊🦊🦊🦊🦊
There's a guy named AJ Heartly that has a video series going into in depth breakdowns of the meanings of Babymetal songs. You should check out some of his videos on his channel. He has a really good one on this song.
The best explaination of this song is by AJ Hartley. You can check it out on TH-cam. The choreography in Babymetal also often has meaning as much as the lyrics.
Loving the reaction clips to Babymetal!!! No matter what they always bring that hard but cute which balances the bad to making me feel happy! Babymetal forever!!!! 🦊 🦊 🦊 One suggestion though is a new group whose been out for a couple of years but has just released an album is Hanabie! We Love Sweets, Reiwa dating app Generation, LCG, Envy or Time Out on Death Pop channel.
Fantastic song and reaction! Plus you chose a great performance of it. My take on the lyrics as a westerner from the U.S. is the first time through I thought it was a song about them and how people perceive them on first listen. I believe Yava came out after their first world tour. "They are different, what do I think and feel and do about this? "Then I can see how in our current socio-political situation, that this is someone responding to a changing world of gender identification. This song would be a hit with the LGBTQ+ community. It also makes me wonder as a former theatre (yes, 're' not 'er') major why burlesque's and drag shows don't do BM. Great music/look/choreography/style beyond! Great reaction again; be cool and awesome this memorial day! (I'll be working doubles...)
That's just too far. This is just they take about people that weren't able to differentiate between which Moa and Yui on stage. "Any of them are alike. Everybody says so, but they are in some way a little different, aren't they?" Some also confused about MoiMoi position during certain song because they role changed over years. Ex: in Uki2 midnight Yui used to be on our left while later changed to right. " I can't stop caring about it. What should I do? Which side is that on? Which side is this on? Paarira paarira paarirarira. "
@@arbalestt4590 I can see your point. This was just my initial response on hearing for the first time with the lyrics and choreography. I don't mean to make anyone mad; just thoughts on a song. Bless you, @arbalest T!
I think this song is about having different opinions, being not a conformist, standing out and forging your own personality, which is the main challenge for every teenager, but even more so in Japan. And that can also well be a self reference. Even though it may sound a light funny song, to me it definitely belongs to the Dark Side as there's really a struggle going on on stage between SU, who represents the individual and M&Y, who are a society that doesn't like things out of the box. I was pleasantly surprised to see that Andrew Hartley has the same feelings about this gem.
And for the lyric, you must know that almost all off babymetal's songs are manifestation of their own feelings or the feelings of a child who is still unstable, except when su-metal is doing solo.
I personally think the lyrics describe the situation as if the musician was struggling while composing music. People say don't worry about song (sound, melody) , they're all the same. The musician says, NO, something is different. Should this be a melody like this, or should it be a melody like that? To the musician, all the small differences sound completely different. All of them are so different that musician has trouble composing and has a hard time finding the answer. The artist noticed something different or wrong about the song he wrote. The artist can't sleep today or tomorrow , so Oh no!(YAVA!) The inside of his or her head is full rotation. 'PI-PO-PA-PO-PI'.. This may be representation that the computer is processing. It is his or her inside of brain. Something like that... Japanese "CHIGAU"= ‘ different ’ is a literal translation. It has meaning ‘wrong’ too. The meaning changes depending on the context. It may be more natural to translate in the following sense. ’I do not like it’ ’This is not what I'm looking for’ ’This is not what I want’ ’It's wrong’ 'Not this!' etc. Unfortunately, This live was a concert that YUI's performance was the worst of all the BABYMETAL concerts I've seen. She may had problems with her physical condition around this time. I just want to say that her ability is actually better than that and thank you to YUI for entertaining the fans in even difficult situations. If you have a chance, Please also check out YAVA, which was performed between 2015 and 2016 someday. For example, WEMBLEY 2016, TOKYO DOME 2016, YOKOAHAMA 2015. Have a nice vacation !
Hey Gombers. . Another gr8 reaction! . . love your take applying the lyrics to us politics too. . . There is a guy from Japan who uses Babymetal lyrics to teach Japanese. Apparently the lyrics are incredibly clever in Japanese as even the language used is very subtilely different line to line and reflect once again, changes in traditional cultural norms by this generation. I will send you the link when I find it. Thanks for the fun. Keep it coming👍🤘🏼🦊✌🏽
Aw, Yui's last show. :( She's giving her all as ever but her lack of range of movement is painfully obvious next to Moa... Anyway, great reaction as ever!
Another great reaction my friend! I appreciate your thoughtfulness and how much you love BABYMETAL just like me! keep up the great reactions and as always, Kitsune’s Up!! 🦊🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼
Great reaction as usual. Now that you've reacted to a number of Babymetal songs, you can fill up your phone for the vacation and listen all you want. Stay safe and have a great time (no TV).
Konnichiwa G-metal! Love YAVA!! DOUBLE DIP PLEASE!! If only because 60 years ago, "On May 28, 1961, the British newspaper The London Observer publishes British lawyer Peter Benenson’s article “The Forgotten Prisoners” on its front page, launching the Appeal for Amnesty 1961-a campaign calling for the release of all people imprisoned in various parts of the world because of the peaceful expression of their beliefs. The movement later became Amnesty International." From History.com via Google. Whatta ya say? More BABYMETAL please! Arigatou! 🦊🤘 #notacult
Cool reaction - Yava is one of my favorite BM songs, it's so entertaining and energetic, and the Ska guitars are awesome. Btw. there's an analysis video from Andrew Hartley about this track as well, you might want to check that out to get his thoughts of a possible meaning. But, yeah, the lyrics are vague and open for interpretation. Enjoy your holiday! :-)
BOH has a 6 string bass, Ohmura plays a 7 string guitar and I bet their amps go up to 11. I put YAVA (translated as OMG or Oh No) together with Awadama Fever as I think they are both about difference and not necessarily being confined by other people's expectations. The YAVA lyrics mention "different" over 20 times. Is it about Babymetal and their music being different, Moa and Yui being different even though people seem to think they are twins or just about clothes?...who knows? What it is, is some up tempo metal/ska and a lot of fun with some great choreography and a really heavy breakdown. The Kami intro takes the song over the top and I'm always ready for a bit of ska.
I really appreciate the ambiguous nature of the lyrics because it really doesn’t give a lot of room to interpret too deeply, unless you really want to lol. I think the song structure itself and how seamlessly it blends ska and metal is really its true brilliance.
Great reaction as always. I love the ska elements in this as well. I can't believe how seamlessly this song moves between styles. I'd recommend watching AJ Hartley's video about this song. I think his interpretation fits better than anything else I've read. Critically, he factors in the choreography and how it influences how the lyrics should be interpreted.
I have a hard time watching Big Fox due to Yui chan's situation. And we haven't seen her since this performance 😭 Thank you again for letting Babymetal into your ears and heart.
Aren't there people who claim she was in some type of back harness/brace or something and that is ultimately what caused her to take the time off and eventually leave? I don't think I've seen this specific video or anything from it, so I'm not sure how accurate this is. The thumbnail for this video doesn't look like she has any type of brace on, but people claimed it was noticeable.
@@mr.osclasses5054 If you watch the entire show, you can tell her performance isn't completely on point, and she doesn't move like she used to. She does appear kind of stiff, and either she had some weight gain in the time since the previous show, or whatever medication she may have been on made her appear puffy in the face. Whatever the case, that was definitely her last show. 😔
Personally I always thought the lines about different and the same where about MOI-MOI poking fun at people who think they are twins but they are really two separate people
Yeah.... and we're pretty much waiting for the metal/country fusion.... oh just a question of that picture you got on the wall... is that Fred or Root?.... she reminds me of someone...🤘🦊🤘
I think it’s supposed to be Fred, but it’s definitely Amy Acker 😁 I think if any group was going to make me tolerate listening to country it would be Babymetal. Otherwise that’s one genre fusion I’m really all right without 😅
@@gombers What with Old Town Road making country cool again..... I'm trying very hard to not imagine Moa and Su with cowboy hats.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🦊🤘 Ah Amy Acker.... Now I want to go back and binge on Angel again....
This is also my fave BM song. I see this as a comment on the pressure to conform in Japanese society. You should checkout Professor AJ Harltey analysis th-cam.com/video/kib7zf-Ulfk/w-d-xo.html
These lyrics are mad clever.
These dance are mad cute.
These musicians are mad tallented.
These Babymetal are just doing what Babymetal do.
10 years on, and I'm still listening to the same 3 albums. Am I trapped?
Does it really matter?
As long as I can remember Yui dancing, I'll be forever happy.
Idk why Yui always cuteness, she is my favorite queen of 🍅

The most accurate statement haha.
YAVA is where everything or anything is the same and at the same time different.
Yui face for this song is very very animated and cute.
Yui Death Stare is the second from Su.
"Yava" means , probably "Oh, no !" but, also used in good situation like "So good!" It's difficult to explain…😅
Japanese is not english :) People think that a word in Japanese means a word in english. It doesn't work that way.
I translate it as "OMG!" that way it works for good things and bad things :)
Great reaction, thanks!
Definitely one of my favorite songs and the Kami intro is really insane. I love the ska vibe, the super cute choreo and that breakdown is something to behold (it deserves to be played full blast hahaha...)

ooooh, adding that one to the list!
Yava is in my personal Top5. glad you liked it as well =)
Wishing you a great vacation!

Something like that...
Japanese "CHIGAU"= ‘ different ’ is a literal translation. It has meaning ‘wrong’ too. The meaning changes depending on the context.
It may be more natural to translate in the following sense.
’I do not like it’
’This is not what I'm looking for’
’This is not what I want’
’It's wrong’
'Not this!' etc.

one of Su's fave songs to perform apparently ;)
I love this song and performance so much. Great reaction! 🦊🤘
You gotcha! It's Ska-Metal. Underrated, but one of my favorite songs. Try the Awadama Fever with Kami Band intro.
Best💀 yui🍅 moment at 3:50 when the girls come up out of the stage💀 yui🍅 clapping and smiling I think you missed it due to head banging🤣🤣🤘

I think his interpretation fits better than anything else I've read. Critically, he factors in the choreography and how it influences how the lyrics should be interpreted.
Agreed!! They did such an incredible job melding those genres. Definitely going to start checking out AJ Hartley’s breakdowns 😁
Yava is a underrated song.
I have a hard time watching Big Fox due to Yui chan's situation. And we haven't seen her since this performance 😭 Thank you again for letting Babymetal into your ears and heart.
I don't remember how much research you've done into Babymetal, but this is actually Yui's last show with the group.
Aren't there people who claim she was in some type of back harness/brace or something and that is ultimately what caused her to take the time off and eventually leave? I don't think I've seen this specific video or anything from it, so I'm not sure how accurate this is. The thumbnail for this video doesn't look like she has any type of brace on, but people claimed it was noticeable.
@@mr.osclasses5054 If you watch the entire show, you can tell her performance isn't completely on point, and she doesn't move like she used to. She does appear kind of stiff, and either she had some weight gain in the time since the previous show, or whatever medication she may have been on made her appear puffy in the face. Whatever the case, that was definitely her last show. 😔

Pippo Pappo Pippo Pappo Pi!!!
No other reaction channels for babymetal try to dig into its lyrics and that's why gombers' channel is ganna be bigger.
Appreciate the kind words friend! 🦊🤘
I love your long hair and almost showt hair....emortional reaction of babymetal.
We are babymetal.
Personally I always thought the lines about different and the same where about MOI-MOI poking fun at people who think they are twins but they are really two separate people
yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Not a fan of Ska but love how BabyMetal do it . What style can BabyMetal not do ? I am still waiting to find out 🤘🦊🤘❤
Yeah.... and we're pretty much waiting for the metal/country fusion.... oh just a question of that picture you got on the wall... is that Fred or Root?.... she reminds me of someone...🤘🦊🤘
I think it’s supposed to be Fred, but it’s definitely Amy Acker 😁
I think if any group was going to make me tolerate listening to country it would be Babymetal. Otherwise that’s one genre fusion I’m really all right without 😅
@@gombers What with Old Town Road making country cool again..... I'm trying very hard to not imagine Moa and Su with cowboy hats.... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🦊🤘 Ah Amy Acker.... Now I want to go back and binge on Angel again....
I think I was the one person who couldn’t listen to that hahaha. I bet though that the girls probably had fun with that song on their own. 🤣
@@gombers trying to imagine Su and Moa with cowboy hats and doing square dancing...🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🦊🤘
I'm looking at babymetal through you
🍅🗽🐨
This is also my fave BM song. I see this as a comment on the pressure to conform in Japanese society. You should checkout Professor AJ Harltey analysis
