Ive listened to this song over 1000 times and it still makes me tear up, the passion and power of this song always gets me.
I can see why! This was something truly special! Must have been amazing to see live
I fell down this rabbit hole several years ago and still love Baby Metal.
same!
It's such an awesome rabbit hole!!!
fox hole*
From 2018 - every day mate :)))
Me too! Since 2015
Rob Zombie took a big stand for Babymetal during the time when they got hated on by Metal "Elitists" which said things like, it is a disgrace to metal or it is shameful etc etc when he posed with them...He said to one of the haters "Those three girls had more energy than 90% of the bands we play with" and yes he is absolutely right!
SU-METAL shouts near the end of this performance,"Kakatte koiya-!" which in English means,"Bring it on!" and let's fans know that BABYMETAL is up to the challenge.
I still can't believe this was the end of a 90 minute show. No drop in quality, the energy all throughout was insane. The whole production and music is just insane.
Fun fact... They literally made that particular song with Dragonforce, Totman and Li on guitars, that's why it sounds familiar! 🎸💥
They just keep getting better! This was incredible!!
I also recommend you check out a Mesa Moa and their song Shadow Kiss.
They are a all male group and are just so talented and I know you will like them

To answer your questions: The girls had difficult to learn the metal horn sign so they made the "Foxsign" It is a "half alpacka sign" in sign language. They don't make the real sign for fox though. When the girls couldn't get an answer they said "only the Fox God knows" in interviews. So they made a cool history about the thing. If You see newer concerts they always have fox heads on the stage.. so therefore the "foxhole". In japan they have the Oji Fox-day and You can get nerdier about the Megitsune (Great song from BM by the way) and Kitsune. So in short : Foxes has been aroung Babymetal almost from the beginning. If I have been fluently in English I can wrote more, I'm lacking a bit but in English. Ohh Those you see in this video is Su, Moa and Yui-metal. Yui-metal left the band 2018? due health problems and they until now had 3 dancers revolving replacing Yui. The band is on hiatus as the awesome band Lovebites and there is lots of gossip what will happen when they come back. Lovebites is seeking for a new bassplayer.. that we know... so... welcome to the wonderful world of Japanese hardrock/metal/punk. There are tons of great bands to discover! My self living in Sweden has become a nerd on Japanese music the last couple of years.... and it is a journey that is awesome!
If you like Babymetal, you should also hear the other big Japanese groups: Band-Maid, Nemophila and Lovebites.
I recommend Band-Maid - Don't You Tell Me (live) th-cam.com/video/345H_fNqurM/w-d-xo.html
and Nemophila - "Dissension", both very talented all-female bands!
Always expect the unexpected 🤘 🦊 🤘
Great reaction. At the risk of repeating things you have probably already been told, this was at the Saitama Super Arena in January 2015 with a crowd of over 20,000 and every one of them completely under the control of three 5 feet nothing girls - Su was only just 17, Yui and Moa still only 15.
If you want to see BABYMETAL actually being supported by DragonForce and playing this song - just look for the video from the Metal Hammer Awards show in London in 2015 where that really did happen.
Herman Li and Sam Totman from DragonForce did the guitar arrangements for this song and played on the studio recording for the album version. This was the Kami Band's interpretation of the instrumentals.
The song is about forging your own road, not necessarily going the easy way or following the path already made by somebody else, so if the way you want to go has never been explored you may have to get past the resistance of the undergrowth, obstacles, hurdles and things blocking your way etc to find your own way.
It could easily be used to describe BABYMETAL's own story - they could have followed the well trodden path of J-Pop and been very successful, but they chose to go with Metal ... but again they didn't just follow the same old format of every other metal band, they have done it their own way and it hasn't always been an easy route to follow.
Their most recent UK tour was in February 2020 - they played Glasgow, Cardiff, Manchester and the Hammersmith Apollo in London. That was where I saw them - and in 2019 I saw them in Brixton, London. I have been to so many concerts over the years and seen some truly great bands ... those two BABYMETAL concerts are at numbers 1 and 3 in my favourite ever concerts (Anthrax supported by Metal Church just manages to remain in second place, it was a real fun concert, but Led Zep, Queen, Megadeth and so many more got displaced).
I'm looking forward to whatever you watch next time - I think you will be impressed and surprised all over again whatever it is. You already have a lot of good suggestions - I second all of them.
The “see you” exchange at the end just makes me smile. To know that the performers appreciate their fans, and the fans appreciate the performers, just warms my heart.
Great job! Love your enthusiasm. As a 50 year old jaded, cynical music lover, I thought I had heard it all when I discovered BABYMETAL. They reinvigorated my love for music with all their creative genre fusions. This is just the tip of the iceberg. Enjoy your journey down the foxhole.
Someone said that "Rock didn't die. It just moved to Japan".
Couldn't be more right.
🤘🤘🦊🤘🤘🦊🤘🤘🦊🤘🤘
due to the accent, a lot of native english speakers don't realize how much english is in babymetal's music. most notable in this song is the part where su shouts, in english: "stand up and shout! justice forever!"
Babymetal's battle anthem. @11:05 Su yells "Bring it on!"
I didn't either! Ah love it ❤️❤️
@@GenTzui thought it was "Resistance~~" LMAOO
I've seen them live in clubs and arenas. No matter the cost, see them in an arena. I'm planning a trip to Tokyo for their return (whenever that is). Which is insane.
Ah that would be amazing!!! Would love to see them in Japan one day!
@@GOTGames You haven't done a video with their current set-up yet, but they shipped the set from the Pa Pa Ya! video to LA for the sold out LA Forum show. The dance floor is elevated and on tracks and can move out into the audience. It also, of course, is covered with video screens and shoots fire. It's also the small one. When you get to the Trilogy of Light (a series of songs that talks about the departure of Yui and the death of their guitarist Mikio...they've matured) the entire middle of the stage detaches and moves out into the audience. Then there is the Budokan birthday cake set from last year, check out "In the name of..." to see that in action.
Snap!
@@russellstewart1 I was under impression that band was gone honestly going by the last song
@@lop90ful1 Hard to tell.
it's like a Dragon Force song, lol well yeah Herman Li (of Dragon Force) was involved in the creating of the music for this song, also FYI it's the Fox Hole not Rabbit Hole
That's awesome!!!
This is my first time listening to this song and that makes so much sense
Down the rabbit hole is a well known saying, don't this I've ever heard someone say down the fox hole when referring to becoming engrossed in a subject. Think it originates from Alice in wonderland
@@36thurlow yes your right however with Babymetal everything revolves around Fox Lore and is referenced in every show interview and video somewhere, if they don't want to answer a question for example they say "only the fox god knows"
@@jeffwotherspoon3867 right, that makes more sense, cheers
Yeah bro babymetal definitely will make feel something whether they will make you want to dance, jump and pump up or emotional. You should check out BABYMETAL - 'ijime, dame, zettai' Live at UK Sonisphere 2014 next This performance is their first ever performance in the UK, people doesn't know them yet in this but Babymetal make the crowd crazy and wanted more in the end of their performance. You should definitely check this out. Nice Reaction!🔥🤘
Ah definitely will be checking that out my friend!
They really do! Just an awesome group! So unique!
for me their best IDZ performance would be at Legend Metal Galaxy concert where all avengers performed together
Yea it's live changing experience isn't it? Do you like festivals? Why not give this a try: Ijime, Dame, Zettai Live at Sonisphere 2014. Surprise, BABYMETAL is also big in UK.
Alright! Happy to! 🤘🤘🤘
find the version of Pain Killer with Rob Halford and Baby Metal and be prepared to be amazed..
Alright! Happy to and can't wait
I'm so glad you found Babymetal! I have been a fan of theirs for years.
They're awesome!
Yes, this song makes me emotional too..and after years, I still can't explain why!
No reason why
I can't understand it
Open your mind
We can understand it
Please let me know if you know this is the end of the world
Let me know that you know the truth
Really does, so strange but so awesome and beautiful ❤️
I think in some way the power of the music combined with the projected emotion of the singing, added together with these innocent looking girls just out busting thier asses to entertain creates a kind of purity that we dont see that often and is missing the cynicism of our current world.
That or some frequency that makes us tear up.
It's a song in minor key, sang by minors. Minors square equals sorrow square.. Yeah, that's the only reasonable explanation
"Road of resistance", "Ijime, dame, zettai" and "Arkadia" make me emotional... something about when they do power metal!
It's deja vu - like me falling in love with Babymetal again. Gone through all these phases of wonder, bemusement, disbelief, acknowledgement, and then acceptance that this is the greatest metal act ever.
I recommend you listen to Karate by these girls as they are so awesome.
And as a fellow believer in the Fox God I will support these girls till my very last breath
Karate? Okay, happy to 🤘
@@GOTGames Yh and Thankx it's one of my favs by them
Agree, Karate is a great suggestion. Love Catch Me if you Can as well though I'll just keep naming songs, lol.
This is how I felt, the 1st time I heard this song too. However, this song, is the one that made me shed tear or `100! *babymetal ijime dame sonisphere festival uk 2014* They were girls between 14-16, all their songs had backing tracks, they sang not in English (the only other metal band that could get away with it recently was Rammstein). The backing band was made up of session musicians. The girls were singing about chocolate, and they were playing hide and seek on the stage, literally. They already had their own made up religion about the Fox God, and their hand sign was mocking the devil's horns.
- This was NOT metal at all. They were nobodies and they didn't belong on the main stage of a metal festival. But, they knew it well, and they expected to get booed and bottled. There's a backstage photo of the girls before the show and their faces read "WE ARE F*CKED" And they went on the stage and Yui's hoodie got stuck in her hair, Moa's headset did not work and she missed the opening moves of the choreo. There was a close up of Yui's face on the projector screen at this moment, she saw what was happening, and for a moment her expression was like "ok, forget it, NOW we are f*cked..."
Really???
I would love to see a documentary or behind the scenes on that? Sounds like one amazing and Awesome story
@@GOTGames Yui accidetly fell down in one of the pit doing Headbanger live at Budoken and Su and Moa had to finish the song without her, final song Ijime Dame Zettai with Yui back Moa hurt one of her leg doing the dance, she was fighting the pain and tear Yui look at her to see if she can continue Moa nodded yes and she manage to pull it off and finish the song. I have the blu-ray of the live concert at Budoken, it two shows one is Red Night where Yui fell and Moa get hurt and Black Night which is my favorite of the two show. I highly recommend getting it.
@@barneynorton - I have the DVD versions - both superb to watch . . . and listen to :)
I totally understand how you feel. I got emotional from Babymetal when I heard No Rain, No Rainbow. That was my first emotional Babymetal Song. I've subscribed because I really enjoyed your reaction. I can't wait to see you watch all their songs!
@@GOTGames The producer of the Sonicsphere Festival said in an interview that they had moved BabyMetal to the main stage due to the popularity of Gimme Chocolate video and that no one had actually seen them live. When BabyMetal took the stage and started to play the producer said that backstage everything came to a complete stop backstage as everyone stared at each other in stunned silence. Then everyone ran to the side stage to watch them during the performance. When they walked off the stage they were international stars.
⚡ 💀 💕 / 🏴 🏴 🏴
"Stand up and shout, Shout!, Justice Forever!" - (Road of Resistance) -
Pretty much a master class in audience control.
BABYMETAL believe that if a song sounds too much like a single genre, then it's not a BABYMETAL song.
You can definitely feel the speed metal component in this one though.
Herman Li and Sam Totman from DragonForce provided guitar tracks for the studio version.
This performance was at Saitama Super Arena (SSA) in January of 2015, with a sold out crowd of over 20,000.
BABYMETAL's lead singer, Suzuka Nakamoto first appeared at SSA in 2008 as a member of the J-Pop trio Karen Girl's, when she was 10 years old.
She's been back many times since, headlining with BABYMETAL.
Guitarists for this January 2015 concert were Takayoshi Ohmura and Leda Cygnus. The bassist was BOH, and the drummer was Hideki Aoyama.
Thank you Rick!
Appreciate all the information, they're incredible with such an awesome story, feel like I need to watch a documentary on them or something, so much to learn ❤️

Welcome to the foxhole! 🦊
Babymetal is one of my favorite bands man. I think this is one of those once in a lifetime bands where everything…just works. Like the stars aligned. The amazing band, the girls, the producers, everyone involved in the creation of Babymetal is nothing short of a miracle, it all just works. After listening to babymetal I honestly have a hard time going back to most other music, and this comes from someone who isn’t a frequent listener of Asian pop or metal in general.
You are completely correct about the emotional impact of the song, specifically this video. It's the closing song of a frankly unbelievably good concert. Everyone in that venue is super pumped.
Babymetal are currently on Hiatus.
But when they come back and start touring again, you need to understand that their really BIG shows are usually only in Japan. There have been a few exceptions to this...they played the "Wembley Arena" in London, UK in April 2016, the "L. A. Forum" in California, USA in October, 2019 and at the "Stadium Live" in Moscow, Russia in March, 2020.
Most of their World Tour venues are smaller, say between 3k-10k capacity....but some as large as 20+k. These shows do have their advantage as you have the chance to be much closer to the group than you would at one of the Giant venues.
I hope you get your chance in the coming years to experience them LIVE!!
More Babymetal Always!!!
Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!
My favorite reaction for this song that I've ever seen. The fact that you can see the exact moment that my man realizes it's not just some novelty youtube request and that the band is actually god-tier, is SO good. Same when I first heard it. Cheers, keep up the good work.
funny you mentioned dragon force. they wrote the guitar parts to the song and i think recorded them as well! glad you enjoy them so much and if you can, try to find videos of them live. however many are compilation videos that can be confusing for new fans so read descriptions. videos with budokan black night in the title are very good even if from 2014. or check our karate live at download 2016 or ijime, dame, zettai live at sonisphere 2014. a personal recommendation would be catch me if you can from budokan black night or metrock 2015 since its on youtube. cmiyc has an instrumental intro with the live band so it's worth checking out!
Herman Li and Sam Totman from Dragonforce played the guitars in the studio version of this song! They didn't write the guitar parts, but they did the arrangments!
They didn't necessarily write them, but they did play them!
Ah that's amazing!!!
And will check them all out! Can't wait ❤️🤘
> "They are amazing."
Yes, they are. And after 11 years, three studio albums, and even more live albums I cannot await their next studio album for god's sake!
And yes, absolutely more BABYMETAL! I recommend another epic performance: "Ijime, Dame, Zettai" (Bullying, Don't do it, Never ever) live at the Sonisphere Festival 2014 in the UK th-cam.com/video/Ro-_cbfdrYE/w-d-xo.html
Sonisphere 2014 was their first-ever performance at a big metal festival outside of Japan and this song concluded the set they've played.
I've watched the videos from Sonisphere 2014 when they got pushed to the main stage instead of the smaller one they should be playing from the beginning and after one song they OWNED the crowd! It was just amazing to see how hard metalfans just melts in these girls hands. 🤩
Man, this *is* an emotional song but your reaction got me emotional as well that it reminded you why you're doing this.
Rondo of Nightmare with Mischiefs of Metal Gods intro is my suggestion, a great intro and a sublime emotional song.
❤️❤️❤️
I second that choice.
Bro if you love a sick sick sick solo party intro, watch this one. You won’t regret it good sir.
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。This song is very special for UK, your country and BABYMETAL's second home. It was premiered at the Brixton, London on Nov.8, 2014. The UK audiences quickly adjusted and started "wow wow" chant to Su-Metal's direction notwithstanding that no one in the world had listened to this song before. Japanese fans appreciated the mates in UK but felt a little bit jealous of them because the premiere of this anthemic song was not done in their homeland.
In your video, Su shouted some words 11:02 meaning "Bring them on!". Fans analyzed that the provocative shout was thrown at people who had been ignoring, underrating, mocking, hating and even trying to discredit BABYMETAL. That shout may have been necessary in 2015 but not any longer. She shouted it rarely since then. Last year (2021), on the final day (April 15) of 10 BABYMETAL BUDOKAN concerts, Su shouted the same words in the end-all of the show. She did it smilingly with matured, mild and friendly voice. It meant, I believe, "come on guys!" The audience smiled her back. I was there at the venue ヽ(^o^)丿
@@michelm.6033 I will go out of home soon. I will be back home at 3pm (Japan Time) = 1am (Dallas time CDT). You can write your question here. I will reply during your sleeping time 😄 .
@@michelm.6033 I am OK for general question about Japanese language even with no relation to BM. Actually I am glad to know that you are interested in our language. Your question is difficult to answer, but I will try.
The words you mentioned are broken into syllables like this "Uru → U-Ru う・る", "Akatsuki → A-Ka-Tsu-Ki あ・か・つ・き", "Suzuka → Su-Zu-Ka す・ず・か".
So answer to your question is : Yes. These syllables [ Ru, Tsu, Su, Zu ] ending with letter "u" have the common sound together with consonants. The common sound of "U" is similar to the first sound of English word "oops". (vowel sound made by projected and rounded lips). Actually "U" is the one of 5 vowels we use "A - I - U - E - O あ・い・う・え・お".
Expressing some pronunciation of different language is always troublesome. For example, there is no "th" sound in Japanese so we express it with similar pronunciation but it doesn't sound right for English-speaking people like you. (The → Za, Thing → Singu) Another example you already know is Su's pronunciation of chocolate. It sounds like "Cho-Ko-Re-ee-To ちょ・こ・れ・い・と" 😄
I hope this will help your understanding.
@@flugelhornoldman1362 Yes sir your reply actually helps. I apologize for asking such basic questions. I’ll try not to ask them again as I’m sure you have more important things to attend to. I appreciate the knowledge. Don’t give me any credit for a desire to learn your language. If Suzuka, and Moa hadn’t pointed out my limitations, I probably wouldn’t have the interest I currently hold. Long live the Queen and her Angels.
@@michelm.6033 Thanks for your response. Michel, Please call me 'Flugelhorn' or 'KS' (My initials).
@@michelm.6033 OK JG! Good night from Japan 😴
I don't understand a word they are saying but yet this song almost always brings tears to my eyes.
This was the 3rd song/video I consumed when I started my BABYMETAL journey. I didn't know their history at that time but after watching their first song/video I wanted more. I think I saw Gimme Chocolate then Karate then this ROR. All 3 made me smile and wow'd me and left me wanting more. But when Su, Yui, and Moa started to walk down that bridge and the crowd all sang along, I felt the energy and love I personally never felt before with a band and their fans. And seeing these 3 tiny girls become giants just left me speechless. I was an absolute 100% fan ever since.
I quickly watched anything and everything I could about BABYMETAL. All the way back to their Sakura Gakuin days. I bought like 12 of their concerts on Blu Ray as I wanted to see entire shows. I could never be a "Reactor" as I wouldn't be able to wait to make a reaction. I wanted to soak up everything I could there and now. I never had this emotional response and adoration for any band before. And I like to think I like a lot of music. BABYMETAL just does everything right for me. They are so unique and I just adore those 3 girls. So much talent and humbleness. And the Kami band blows my mind as well. The respect they give the girls and the respect back is amazing.
Anyway, I look forward to seeing more of your journey into the BABYMETAL Galaxy. Welcome to the ONE. 🤘🦊🤘
My favorite is headbanger live love to watch the crowd jump when the twins do.
This was the last song at a show at Saitama Super Arena January 10th 2015 . Su was only just 17 years ( december ) and Yui and Moa 15 years old 16 in june and july later that year a 20.000 + Sold out show . They had kept this energy up for around hour and half .
You asked where you the only one felt that way . My answer is no i feel like you felt every single time i watch this performance as many others will say the same . I tear up to this and get goosebumps to this many other songs by BabyMetal.
I have seen this song live twice but at smaller venues in UK Brixton Academy and The Apollo. Surrgest you watch there first apprence at a Metal Festival outside Asia.
Sonisphere in the UK 2014 .
See what happens when 60.000 British metalheads 95% did not have a clue who they where and some of the 5% had threatened to boo them and throw bottles of urine at them as they where considered not metal and a gimmick. .
Its there last song in a five song set
"Ijime Dame Zettai" . They where Su 16 and Yui and Moa just recently 15 years old at time of this performance . This performance is called by fans The Miracle of Sonisphere. 🤘🦊🤘

Jeez where to even start!
Is there an official journey? When I checked out NF for the first time there was an official song journey list to follow I feel like I need one with Babymetal, this sounds like one amazing ride 🤘🦊
In 2016 I flew from Australia to see both Black and Red nights of the Tokyo Dome performance. It was totally EPIC!!!! 55,000 sold out arena both nights and they played a completely different play list each night. The best performance(s) I’ve ever witnessed by far. If you can react to anything from that concert you’ll see the scale of the show. Simply amazing.
Dual guitar intro, who does not love that. Here is a girl from Japan who learns to speak English for her fans!!! I mean what's not to love about BABYMETAL.......
The amazing power of BabyMetal in this video has been known to reduce grown, metal-hardened men to tears; and real men are not ashamed to admit it. As I have said many times before, BabyMetal is much more than just a band. They are a state of mind, an unstoppable movement, and a force for good.
I'm glad it's made other men feel the same way! This was crazy! 🤘❤️
Old school BABYMETAL head here. You hit nail on the head. On paper this combination of sweet and brutal shouldn’t work, yet it just does - magnificently :-}
I remember the moment I got hooked as if it was yesterday. I saw Doki Doki Morning back in 2015, and the moment when the beat dropped and they started head banging, I knew it was all over for me. They’re simply incredible, unapologetically epic. Su is a beast and the band as well. They make me nostalgic for a past I haven’t lived. I saw them live at their first concert in the US, in a small venue in LA, before they blew up world wide. They were still finding their footing - thE concert RoR was taped at is in Japan, and it is obviously more polished and they are more confident. By now, Yui (the dancer on the left) has left the band due to health reasons, and one of the guitarists died a few years back from an accident while star gazing :-( They will always have a special place in my heart, and I will follow them wherever. Songs you HAVE to check out are:
Rondo of Nightmares, Headbangerrrrr, Karate, BxMxC. There is a wide variety of awesomeness waiting for you. Welcome to the rabbit hole, fellow Kitsune!
\m/ BABYMETAL \m/
I have been part of the One (Babymetal's name for their fans) for over a year now, and as of now this old headbanger (53-years) ranks them as his favorite group (sorry, Savatage). First, a quick correction on your vocabulary and gestures. You have gone down the fox (not rabbit) hole. The Fox God is very important to Babymetal. They make frequent mentions of the Fox God like when the Fox God met the Metal God which is a Babymetal and Rob Halford team-up. Many videos have the girls wearing fox masks. And when you make the hand gesture (as explained by Su-Metal) it is the Fox God sign not the Devil's Horns. To adjust, take the 2-middle fingers which in the Devil's Horns are under the thumb and move them to where the tips of the fingers touch the tip of the thumb. You can make fox shadows on the wall with this gesture. If you want more of the Kami Band, check out "Rondo of Nightmare." For the youngest Babymetal proper video check-out "Doki Doki Morning." Su-metal, lead singer, was 14 and Yui-Metal and Moa-Metal were 12. Then, there is Black Babymetal which are Yui and Moa without Su. I believe these pieces are used to give Su a break during concerts. "Onedari Daisakusen" is my favorite of the Black Babymetal playlist. The song is about the girls trying to talk dad into giving them money and presents. Adorable is the understatement.
They replaced every one of my long-time favorite bands in just 1 week of listening. Bands I've loved since childhood just can't compare. I feel like I've found the pinnacle of music 🤘😂
Amazing reaction! 🤘🏻 this is just a god tier song, and especially this live version. Thank you for reacting to Babymetal, and I think, I speak for all of us when I say, I thoroughly enjoy your enthusiasm. 😊 just wait till your like ten tracks deep and watch the guide/story of. You'll love them even more. Kitsunes up! 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
Only two tracks in! Can't wait believe it and can't wait to hear more ❤️❤️
@@GOTGames You seem to like metal. Here is a fun fact. BabyMetal performed the Judas Priest classics Pain Killer and Breaking the Law with Rob Halford of Judas Priest and it was as awesome as it sounds.
I saw them in concert a few years ago. Seeing Su-metal staring down the audience and splitting the crowd in half was so chilling and incredible.
And then being in the crowd chanting along was one of the most magical moments of my life ❤️☠️🤘
I have been to one of their concerts and it was incredible. The energy they send out to the crowd is unreal and where they get the energy to sing and dance that hard is mystical.
Oh so many great choices for a next BABYMETAL song reaction. The beauty of BM is you can have an entire tour of metal subgenres just by changing songs. Probably the next natural god-tier performance is Rondo of Nightmare with Kami Band Intro.
I'm loving this already, reading the comments is just showing me that this is going to be an awesome band to explore

Here is the video I'm referring too.
Omg YES !!! Like especially bc he loves the band too and that whole intro is just insane and rondo is just an incredible song as well..‘couldn’t believe I didn’t see people requesting this iconic stage
Man, first BABYMETAL I ever heard was Megitsune. I was just stunned. And they haven't disappointed me yet. Love them.
It is so good to know that Babymetal fans even in Japan aren't like those simple idols fans, but a lot are hardcore metalheads ! ❤
I love your reactions. Hope you react to the live version of their song headbanger next
It's not only the band and the girls but also the crowd, all are part of the performance 🤘
Can't wait 🤘🤘🦊
I literally had to pause because I was getting emotional and when I unpaused you did the same! This song always gets me, they pull out all the stops to build up that energy level and with no way to release it while watching it just turns into an overflow.
Oh I think it's time for him to check out "Catch Me If You Can" (Live - Black Night Legend Doomsday), "Rondo of Nightmare" (Live with Mischiefs of God intro), and "BxMxC" :)
excellent content dude, who are BABYMETAL? you ask? watch the "Everything You Need to Know About BABYMETAL" and find out for yourself that they are the greatest band ever. What is the foxhole? you ask? well it is similar to a rabbit hole, but the band is led by the fox-god through the universe to restore metal and us fans are like an army of followers who are together in the foxhole supporting them. #notacult #bestcultever
Agree, next reactions: "Babymetal Death Legend 1997" and then "Everything You Need to Know About BABYMETAL"

Yes, please react to this video. It's over 40 minutes, but we will watch it if you react to it!
^^ listen to em, we'll sit through the whole thing 1000 times to spread the gospel
Ah thank you my friend!
I will watch both! Down the fox hole I go 🦊
I discovered them today, and holy shit, I was not dissapointed, their music is just fire af
Great reaction!! One of my favorite bands ! Their crowd involvement its a performance !! Yui one member left and their lead guitarist passed away in 2018 they continued on! And they just did a sealing away a month or so ago where the leave it ambiguos if they will ever come back. You have to check out Catch me if you can by Babymetal kepp up the amazing work mate from Australia
110% if you want to see an amazing band showcase by them; check out "BABYMETAL | Rondo of Nightmare (w/ Mischiefs of Metal Gods Intro) | LIVE at Budokan Black Night"
One of my all time favourite performances, BY FAR.
Rondo of Nightmare and BxMxC should be next to round out how absolutely amazing they truly are. After that as I’ve mentioned before listen to everything again lol
And Headbanger 1997! Those 3 would be great reactions to do next. 👍
@@asilduin4594 there's a compilation of headbanger on TH-cam that I think best captures both the song and their evolution as it spans about 5 years through the song.
@@idislikeusernames628 By Kurokiitsunesama? I love their compilations best. I've watched them all countless times.
@@asilduin4594 yep!
Oh yeah? Okay 🤘🤘🤘
I saw them in 2019 September Las Vegas. They packed the house and it was amazing! I wasn't gonna miss their US tour again. Their 3rd time around.
it was New Year Fox Festival. (10 Jan 2015). This song was last one. 15 songs /95 min concert.
I know many ppl suggest many songs. Really there is no bad songs. Every song is good.
From me:
BABYMETAL -【最高音質】AKATSUKI「DARK NIGHT CARNIVAL」埼玉アリーナ live compilation
I think that in terms of level this song is very close, if not better, than Road of Resistance.
Why this version? Its from 2018. Its 4 years later than Budokan 2014.
Really Budokan 2014 version not so bad.. But 2018 version MUCH stronger voice and MUCH better sound.
If u compare it u will see a big difference.
U can choose what u want.. but trust me - version from Dark Carnival WAY better. Suzuka became real Rock Queen here.
Thank you my friend! I will check it out and happy to compare!
This performance was just absolutely awesome! I can't believe it's taken me so long to check them out but so happy I am now ❤️
My fav is 'Rondo of Nightmare'. You should check it out.
Same. No idea why, but this song makes me emotional. Not just this song, but this particular performance. Amazing.
I saw them live in San Francisco in 2017 (I think) and every song packs a punch. The crowd is 100% into every song. The concerts aren't long, about 80 to 90 minutes, but since every single song rocks, I was exhausted at the end. Still, I wanted more! At the end, the girls leave the stage and the crowd gives the Kami band just as much love as they give the singers. Great experience!
'It's like someone took a Jpop group and DragonForce and mashed them together.' That is literally what happened. At least with this song.
One of my favorites is 'Onedari Daisakusen'. It's an imitation of Limp Bizkit. But just the cutest thing ever.
@scott humphreys Any videos of "Onedari Daisakusen" where Su-metal joined Black Babymetal on-stage for the one performance? Believe was 20 Dec 2014 at Tokyo PIT; Su-metal's third Seitansai. (In Babymetal Wire Su Bio).
@@GenTzu I don't believe a video of that exists, but there may be an audio recording.
there are very few things i see where i end up kind of sad i wasnt there and this concert is one of those moments. there are for sure people who got talked into going to that who didnt know the band or were on the edge and then you show up and you get this once in a lifetime experience.
As you are, im so jealous of the experience the people at that concert had...
i usually tear up watching this which is amazing and maybe abit weird ;)
Great reaction!
“What was it like” even though I wasn’t there that concert. I was fortunate enough to travel throughout Japan in 2019 and even more fortunate around the time Babymetal had a show during my stay in Tokyo. And to add another fortunate to the story. I was super fortunate to get a hold on a ticket since they worked with a sort of lottery system to get tickets. Let me tell you attending a show of this band is beyond anything i have ever witnessed. The show was played at a sold out Saitama super arena of around 20 000 people and let me tell you the atmosphere is so amazing, the Japanese crowd is quite something else in every positive way possible. Seen them twice after that in their European tour just before covid and albeit an amazing live performance on both accounts, it doesn’t get anywhere close to a Japanese stadium performance.
this live concert video literally captured lightning in a bottle. first note to last cymbal crash was absolute perfection.
They played the side stage at rock on the range and had a bigger crowd than inside the stadium. I told the people I was with this band is spacial. After the show 7 new baby metal fans. They are awesome live. The kami band are top notch musicians
That feeling you got listening to this. I still get that after all these years. I absolutely love this band. The teary eyes and all. I don't know what it is but man, I love it.
Jesus man, thanks for showing me im not the only grown ass man sobbing while listenintg to this gem of a band!
Wow, what you said at the end there just changed my life. Talking about how you would have gone your entire life and never hearing certain kinds of music. Damn, I'm gonna start exploring the world of music and look for more of these FEELS.
No, YOU are awesome for having such an excited reaction to this song and Babymetal in general. It got me excited about the song while watching you get excited. Pretty cool reaction. Next song, Megitsune (pronounced meh-git-soon-nay). The music video or live versions are both good. Continue on your journey down the foxhole! Put your kitsunes uuuuuuup!
So kind my friend! Thank you! Can't wait to check that one out!!! 🤘🤘❤️❤️
Su, the lead vocalist, was like 16 at the time and had that entire crowd in the palm of her hand. Such powerful showmanship, and to think this was the closer of a 90 minute show!! I've never seen ANY band with this level of energy and stage presence.
I’m right there with you! I found them several years ago, and still feel it.. I also made all of my friends, and family check it out.. my 16 year old grand daughter loves it… but I made her a goth metal head with my influence.. haha
You have to give it up to these ladies for the extremely tight choreography! Fucking epic! A testament to hard work. And Su never misses a single note. Amazing
Did you notice when the sing along fell apart she come in off time, and they immediately imitated her? She does this intentionally.
I think she might have a metronome click in her earpiece to help her sync with the band and she's going off of that when she "corrects" the audience.
Glad to see more of Baby Metal's reactions back on the front page! WELCOME TO THE FOX HOLE!!! Make sure to check out "Ijime,Dame,Zettai - Live at Sonisphere 2014" it was a festival in the UK, Baby Metal was supposed to play a second stage and a band on the main stage cancelled. Baby Metal was promoted to main stage and the stagehands and managers were afraid of how the crowd would react to them. Seems the crowd had a bunch of fun!!!
The Kami band is insanely good. Every one of them. RIP Mikio.
Please deep-dive their songs. "Karate" next.
The band does sometimes get lost due to shear impact Babymetal do have. They are called "Kami Band", and if you really want to hear them, then listen to 'Rondo of Nightmares with Mischiefs of Metal Gods Intro' (the band are also sometimes called 'Gods of Metal'), the live performance from Budokan Black Night 2014 is recomnded.
As a side note, Babymetal is not the only group mixing metal and J-POP. It has become its own genre now, called Kawaii Metal (Kawaii meaning cute). For a different experience, check out Deadlift Lolita.
She has such an amazing crowd control. When the chanting of the crowd begins to get lost she come back singing to bring it back
Nice one if you wanna have a fully different babymetal check out “no rain no rainbow” amazing song
If you thought this was exceptional check out
"Tales of the Destines".
🤘🦊
Can't wait!
Loved that reaction! It's always good to see someone react the same way you felt when you first heard this. You get so excited. It's awesome!
A proper introduction to BABYMETAL
🤘🤘🤘💯
recommend u to listen to head banger live
After this listen to Moa-banger.:)
Happy to 🤘
Awesome reaction! For your next reaction I would recommend Megitsune either the music video or some live performance is fine or Headbanger that song I would highly recommend you see live.
Appreciate you!
Okay, can't wait to check them out 🤘
I didn’t know whether to laugh, cry or headbang during this😂😭🔥
I’m gonna watch all reactions but I know I’ll need more❣️
I started down the BabyMetal rabbit hole (fox hole?) a few weeks ago. I'm enthralled with everything about this group.
Babymetal had a profound effect on me like only huge bands like Metallica Pantera and Slipknot had on me.... Life changing band without a doubt... Great reaction.. More (Babymetal) please!
After these 2 songs you've listened to (this and Gimme Chocolate), my favorites are Karate, and Disturbance. I just happened across them on the Late Show with Steven Colbert with their U.S. debut performing Gimme Chocolate. He introduced them by saying he had no idea what we were going to experience.
That's awesome!
Okay! Can't wait to check those out!
I first found them a couple years ago and was supprised how much I love them! PA PA YA is hands down my favorite song.
The Kami Band are amazing instrumentalists and this wouldn't work without them being so good to support the singers.
LOVE IT how the song starts out slow and pulsing, then when the music kicks into quadruple drive, any open areas of the audience become swirling mosh pits!!! LOVE IT!!!!
The time has come! Next up, BABYMETAL ' KARATE ' (Download Festival 2016) with interview, an emotional stage in the rain. And the great adventure of a high school girl midsummer, her first overseas festival participation! BABYMETAL - Ijime,Dame,Zettai - Live at Sonisphere 2014,UK (OFFICIAL)
That sounds awesome! And would love to see an interview! ❤️
I'm Japanese .
There is no singer who has both beauty and good singing like Su-Metal (the lead singer of Babymetal) 'in Japan' , I think .
She is 24years old now . She belongs to the biggest entertainment company in Japan and is a famous singer and talent from when a child .
When you have a hard time , you should listen 'no rain no rainbow' by BABYMETAL .
Your soul would be fulfilled by the God blessing , I think .
She's incredible!
Ah so excited to hear that one and more! Our journey has just begun ❤️
Saw this quite awhile ago and it gave me chills, did it again. Everything going on here is just amazing, get someone with an open mind but aren't fans of the music, I get..understandable, we're all different but what's going on here is just awesome in so many ways..... when they get the crowd going I lose it every time. Incredible...
❤️❤️❤️🤘🤘🦊
I had the exact same response to this as you did. When I heard the crowd response at that moment they said sing it......I got goosebumps
Great reaction!!! BABYMETAL is exciting and refreshing, like a breath of fresh air. Every song is different and every song is extremely well composed. Then there is the fact that their live performances are just amazing to watch! keep the BABYMETAL videos coming! 🤘🦊🤘
The buildup from 10:55 to 11:15 is truly epic. This is an anthem! It's clear that some serious music theory and market manipulation is going on here. But even though we KNOW that this song is designed to elicit these emotions, we let it. It's worth it. It's just that good.
As for the admiration of the Kami Band, we fans of BABYMETAL recognize the genius that each member of the Kamis possess. They are not underappreciated. Just know that they do change from time-to-time, and they are (usually) NOT the same musicians that you hear on the album tracks (the Kamis are better). Unlike most idol groups, BABYMETAL made a conscious decision to use live musicians on stage. The fandom took notice, and when Mikio died we felt the loss very deeply. When the Western Kamis took the stage, we found out who they were and we welcomed them to the family. The Road of Resistance and IDZ performances with 10 Kamis and all three Avengers on stage with Moa & Su are simply next-level wickedness. But you have all of that still to come.
You're lucky that you decided to carry on.
You • Have • No • Idea • What's • Coming
#NotACult
pa pa ya (feat F-Hero), Karate, and Headbangerrr!!! try those songs and you will love them even more!!
Okay! Can't wait to hear them ❤️
Man you are def not the only one who gets emotional watching them. I’ve been listening to them for years and been lucky enough to see them twice. I still tear up watching their videos. It’s just absolute pure joy to me. Loving your reactions man!
THIS IS actually what´s going on in the background xD.
The guitar-riffs is Dragonforce. As far as i know, they came up with the guitar-riffs for this song. and it´s pure awesomeness
Now this audio is live, you can hear the difference between this and the Gimme Chocolate video, but they sound exactly like on the record.
BTW this is the most humble reaction to this song, I love it :)
I have seen this so many times and tear up every time. It has a power like no other.
I was at this concert, this was the finale and their energy did not went down at all which was crazy, I was in the pit as well and we matched their energy throughout. At the end of the concert I felt I was floating out of the arena lol! The feeling was surreal. My profile photo is the outfit I wore to that concert too.
That sounds awesome my friend!! Absolutely awesome!
