Two things to note from this track ....this was the first song written by Kanami that was accepted by their label....and secondly....the band have a certain sense of humour in releasing 'Alone' on Valentines Day ;)
I believe the lyrics were co-written by Miku and Saiki, too, and I like how they are looking at each as they sing them, as if they’re encouraging each other’s vocals. Then there’s the incredible instrumentation by Kanami, Misa and Akane! 🔥🔥🔥🤘🏼😎
Very important Band-Maid song! It was the first song from Kanami that was released from their label at this time. The songs before were ALL from some writers from that label. After that almost every song was written mainly by Kanami. Akane and MISA were always a part of it too, because they created their parts with Kanami together so it fits! The rest is history after that you can ALWAYS clearly hear the Band-Maid recipe that makes them the band they are today. The most versatile, most creative and also in my book BEST band today :) Greetings from Germany
In February 2016, two and a half years after the formation of BAND-MAID, they wrote and composed the song for the first time. Until then, Kanami continued to write songs, suggested many times, but wasn't allowed to release. After this song, most of the songs became their own songs. It is a commemorative song that Kanami's composition is recognized and blooms.
I agree completely. Mincho‘s guitar solo is beautiful,ephemeral and passionate! This is their first full original song,so they have a lot of feeling about it.🤟🇯🇵
This song is my number 1 of my favorite song from them. And number 2 is Secret my Lips 🤣 Absolutly, Akane-san style on drum is so perfectly complex 🔥🔥🔥
Akane is a beast, I feel exhausted watching her play. I only discovered Band-Maid at the end of last year, but I'm happy I did. They always give 500% to their performance and rock legend Jimmy Page being impressed by Akane's drumming means she's doing something right :)
Thrill put them on the map, Alone got them to their destination. Band Maid since 2013, making rock and roll great again ! P.S. Her name is Tono, Kanami Tono. And she eats guitar solos for breakfast !
Once they were left "Alone" by their record / management companies to create what they wanted, well... look what they did. Alone! BAND-MAID is an important influence and contributor to the music industry with a continuous, growing worldwide fanbase. But to me, they are just the best sounding, best writers of hard rock music, and the most fun, joyous group of musicians to come along since the Beatles.
I couldn’t agree more, I was a Beatle fan back then and have the same opinion regarding their importance to and contribution to popular music! Truly historic! Hope the world continues so we can all bask in the glory that is Band-Maid!
@@denissmith9772 At my age, I've lived through a lot. But this may be the most dangerous time in world history... and all because of one asshole -- Putin!
If you like this "Non fiction days" and "YOLO" might suit you too. Alone was as some has mentioned, where the record company giving them some more power, as the Kanami/Miku collab is about to take form. Alla Prossima!
One of my fav Akane tracks (one of my fav Band-Maid tracks, too). Akane's ever changing drum patterns and fills. Misa's strolling bass lines, the HARMONIES (Miiiiikuuuuu!), Saiki's smoky lower register lead, and Kanami's gorgoues fire cracker solo. Just EPIC! Thanks THISSSSSS! 🕊
Alone is a fantastic song. This was the first song I heard where Akane REALLY stood out to me. This was probably the 3rd or 4th song I heard by BAND-MAID. The drums were just so upfront in the mix and Akane has some really cool fills and what I always call off beat feeling drums (I mean that in a good way). She even adds the little bit of tasteful double kicks at the end. Kanamis solo is fantastic as well, I believe there was a bit of sweep picking at the end of the solo. Very cool stuff.
If you like ALONE, I recommend Bubble YOLO and Glory. They are funky and cool rock songs. If you want to see another side of them, what about Wonderland? It's a jazzy power ballad with great Saiki vocals and fascinating drum・bass・guitar・chorus.
The first song completely written, arranged and directed by Band-maid themselves, and it's all there, the entire Band-Maid sound. And that solo--no survivors.
Hey, I love Akane as much as you and the next guy, but I think the soul of this song is really the bass. MISA really sets the mood in this song. That's not taking away anything else from the rest of the band though.
I can see you got the same goosebumps I get every time I hear that guitar solo! Did someone already tell you that this was the 1st release of a song that Band-Maid themselves wrote?
Saiki: The key is too low. I can't sing. Kanami: But because of that, your high note part shines more. (Kanami's voice of mind): Sorry Sai-chan, I wasn't thinking about your singing voice range when I composed this song.
@@GaryHolloway-810 Miku: Sorry A-chan, no banana, PO. MISA: Let's go eat wanko-soba after the recording. (As you might know, MISA and A-chan actually went to eat wanko-soba together. MISA ate 70, if my memory is correct, and A-chan ate 120 wanko-soba. )
@@philproffitt8363 I'm sure you know what I'm talking about, but for those of you not familiar with wanko-soba, here is a fun video about wanko-soba: th-cam.com/video/3e34nLsnASI/w-d-xo.html
Sempre belle le tue reazioni....non sono un musicista ma trovo le canzoni delle band maid strutturate in maniera diversa dalle altre band ..forse è solo una mia sensazione...ma questo uso del basso quasi predominante la batteria incredibile...i continui cambi di kanami...boh...aspetto altre reazioni maid...
I keep thinking that this is the perfect key for Atsumi-san as it's a perfect blend with Kobato-chan's vocal tone. But Atsumi-san says it's too low for her.

Glad you like it! First song to have all artistic control by Bandmaid but they already got all of the elements we enjoy and love!!
SAIKIの低音の素晴らしさを教えてくれた曲です！MIKUとのハーモニーがいつもと違って聴こえるのがいいですよね！
This song is my number 1 of my favorite song from them. And number 2 is Secret my Lips 🤣
Absolutly, Akane-san style on drum is so perfectly complex 🔥🔥🔥
2 ways to tell it's vintage Band-Maid, Kanami still has the Addictone guitar and Misa still has 4 strings. Great song.
Miku still playing the Rikenbacker.
Akane is a beast, I feel exhausted watching her play. I only discovered Band-Maid at the end of last year, but I'm happy I did. They always give 500% to their performance and rock legend Jimmy Page being impressed by Akane's drumming means she's doing something right :)
One of my top 5 Band-Maid songs
Great song , Akane drumming is awesome, and yes one of my favorite guitar solos from BM.
Thrill put them on the map, Alone got them to their destination. Band Maid since 2013, making rock and roll great again ! P.S. Her name is Tono, Kanami Tono. And she eats guitar solos for breakfast !
Still one of my favorite Mincho solos, so fantastic! One of my favorite Band-Maid songs!
頑張れ～！！ 素敵な笑顔を 楽しみに してるよ！！

Thank you for reacting to Band-Maid. They went from Amazing back then to totally incredible amazing today.
Choosing your favorite Kanami solo is like choosing your favorite BAND-MAID song. Virtually impossible but so worth the challenge.
If you like this "Non fiction days" and "YOLO" might suit you too.
Alone was as some has mentioned, where the record company giving them some more power, as the Kanami/Miku collab is about to take form.
Alla Prossima!
This song has hooks on hooks! There's always something in a few seconds that grabs you! It keeps you interested in the song they whole way through.
the first in a long line of kanami written masterpieces to be recorded
One of my fav Akane tracks (one of my fav Band-Maid tracks, too). Akane's ever changing drum patterns and fills. Misa's strolling bass lines, the HARMONIES (Miiiiikuuuuu!), Saiki's smoky lower register lead, and Kanami's gorgoues fire cracker solo. Just EPIC! Thanks THISSSSSS! 🕊

I really like the kanami guitar solo in this song, and it's one of my favorite songs
Definitely top 5 for me. Love this song and MV.
If you like ALONE, I recommend Bubble YOLO and Glory. They are funky and cool rock songs. If you want to see another side of them, what about Wonderland? It's a jazzy power ballad with great Saiki vocals and fascinating drum・bass・guitar・chorus.
Watching you is so much fun!
That is the way with Band Maid. Each new song lands on the favorites list. This one is an oldie for them. Peace, sister.
This song is from the early days, but I think it's packed with the charm of Band Maid.
Their dual vocals give me the shivers too 😁🤟🤟🔥
The first song completely written, arranged and directed by Band-maid themselves, and it's all there, the entire Band-Maid sound. And that solo--no survivors.
your facial muscle performance art is amazing
i also synchronize with your facial expression
love your REACTONS - and I like this song too, but so far my favs BLOOMING and DAYDREAMING. BYE
Mine now Anemone, after Ryan’s reaction.
"Alone" will always be one of Band-Maid's best!
There are no words, right？🤷♀️
Best band on this planet!! Talented beyond reality.
Band-Maid at its pop punk finest....
Me encanta tus reacciones. Band-maid. Son espectaculares tocándo y cantando.
Hey, I love Akane as much as you and the next guy, but I think the soul of this song is really the bass. MISA really sets the mood in this song. That's not taking away anything else from the rest of the band though.
I also like vocals, they make me chill.
I can see you got the same goosebumps I get every time I hear that guitar solo! Did someone already tell you that this was the 1st release of a song that Band-Maid themselves wrote?
The first born is alway the best po' 🤟🔥❤🤟🔥❤👍🦧🍌🙏
I think this is one of the most emotional guitar solos of KANAMI. Others are "Daydreaming" and "Blooming".
You will like the live performance from the 13-Dec-2021 online live show very much. It is unavailable on TH-cam.

Thank You 😊
Saiki: The key is too low. I can't sing.
Kanami: But because of that, your high note part shines more.
(Kanami's voice of mind): Sorry Sai-chan, I wasn't thinking about your singing voice range when I composed this song.
LOL. Akane : Has anyone got a banana?

you very like if they sing harmonize or vibra 😁
YES!
I've been listening to them much longer than I thought and I can't get Taylor Hawkins out of my head when I hear Akane play for some reason.
Sempre belle le tue reazioni....non sono un musicista ma trovo le canzoni delle band maid strutturate in maniera diversa dalle altre band ..forse è solo una mia sensazione...ma questo uso del basso quasi predominante la batteria incredibile...i continui cambi di kanami...boh...aspetto altre reazioni maid...
