The guitarist passed away in 2018 from a fall at an observatory and one one the girls Yui Mizuno (Yuimetal) had decided to leave the band due to poor health, following her absence from live performances since December 2017. 😥
Love the reaction and energy! This was the lead vocalist, “Su-Metals” 16th birthday. Fun little Easter egg at the end as she’s going up to the gong, you see the bassist head pop in and he has happy birthday written on the side of his head! The amount of detail that goes into production adds to the amazing live performances!
Of all the live version songs they performed, this is one of my favorites because of how amazing both babymetal and the fans are connecting with their songs.
I love the bmcxc one or whatever the name is lol I can never remember but watching a clip of them doing that one before the music video came out was 100% better live... the band is just insane along with the girls vocals and stage presence and crowd interactions
Great reaction - great song, great performance. There were still two more songs after this one - and they'd been keeping up that same energy for the dozen or so songs up until then. Legend 1997 was the day after Su-metal's 16th birthday (she was born in December 1997), Yui and Moa were 14. One of the main functions of the choreo and a major role for Yui and Moa (or Moa and the chosen Avenger now) is to get the crowd involved, to have them jump when they do, to have them sing along to their lines ... and as you saw the whole arena has no choice but to do what they want them to. That was the Kami Band backing them up - Mikio Fujioka (RIP) and Leda Cygnus on guitars, BOH with his 6 string bass and Hideki Aoyama on drums.
Grington300 300 : FIY. oimatsu0531 has uploaded 2 versions of IDZ. One is at Wembley (sound from Wembley) and the other is compilation from several shows (2014 - 2016) outside of Japan (sound from a show in Japan).
@@Grington300 and Flugelhorn, take a quick look at my last reply on Rick's comment. I completely stumbled across this video in my feed and if you haven't seen it, I thought you might appreciate it, both for the content and who is in it. Apologies if it isn't something new for you.
I have the WHOLE Legend of 1997 concert on my playlist and these girls just go go go go go, 100% on every song and that's why we all love them dearly. They are just 15 and 16 years old here. That level of commitment and professionalism at that young an age and this goes for the whole production team is just above and beyond anything that I've seen in 40 years.
The 'ki-e-ro' crowd chant moment at 6:24 mark of your video still gives me goosebumps every time I watch this video, Made all the more effective as the instruments all come back in.When they played this song at the FORUM in LOS ANGELES 10-11-2019 we went crazy.....And we hit the' ki-e-ro' chant right on que and our queen was smiling with approval.
I would love to see a video from that performance of that song. I totally believe you, but it's awesome to see a 100% genuine appreciative Su smile when a crowd does what she doesn't expect them to do. It's so normal for the crowds in Japan, maybe even the UK, to go all-in, but it's a wholly different animal when a U.S. crowd goes all-in. Much like when Weird Al covers one of your songs, you know you've made it, the same thing goes with a U.S. audience being in lock-step with you and does the crowd participation at live shows!
@@mr.osclasses5054 Unfortunately the WoWoW broadcast left out 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!', but it's on the LA Forum blu-ray. Which reminds me, it's been a while since I've watched it. : )
Su definitely lost her breath. Her voice is incredibly strong. That is what she sounds like singing at half power. If you want to hear what she really sounds like listen to No Rain No Rainbow live at Legend S.
it is difficult enough to hold notes standing still....never mind dancing around like she does. although her coreo was toned down, she still does a good deal of dancing while singing...
Great reaction!!! The best BABYMETAL is Live BABYMETAL... You are right they don't stop the energy never, they literally are athletes! Also since you like Dragonforce a nice reaction is BABYMETAL Road of Resistance live in Japan that song is a colaboration with Hernan Li and Sam Totman guitarists from Dragonforce 😎🤘🏻
The crowd participation is insane. From the front to the back, youngsters and old guys (like me), everyone participate. Know when to jump or scream something like "kieru" (disappear or get out of here). Very special!
Great reaction! You hve entered the road of Babymetal. Welcome! The crowd know when to sing, scream, jump and shut up. This is not only in Japan but all over the world. Babymetals audience live with the performance and give it even more energy. The golden rule is: you do not sing when Su-metal sings. You sing along with Yuimetal and Moametal. I hope they come to Sweden again after this pandemic shit ends.... 🤘🦊😊 C--U
I totally enjoy the pure unadulterated fun in your faces )). Another reactor, a voice instructor pointed what you guys said.. the amount of cardio ang voice control that the girls do is damn near insane. They are in her opinion, Olympic caliber vocal athletes. Just downright incredible.
Not the show closer. This was the third song of a five song encore with the KAMI band. The next song in the show is Akatsuki (unfinished) followed by BabyMetal Death.
Haha, your faces were priceless! It's so good to see the joy in people's faces when they watch these shows. BABYMETAL are so entertaining, I can't wait for the next chance to be at one of their shows.
⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤘 Even though that looked like the finale, it was followed by two more songs. It was part of a five song encore with the live Kami Band. I was thrilled when they brought 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!' back during the 2019 tour. Was finally able to see it live at the LA Forum concert. 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!' was one of their early hits. Even though the song is about a fifteen year old girl attending her first heavy concert, Su was only fourteen when the single and video were released. It's not biographical, but it is a song she could relate to. At that age she was on stage, rather than attending concerts. : )
lol his face is same as a child's face in a sweet shop all the way through this song! These young ladies and those amazing musicians always want their fans to have fun with them....cant help but love these young ladies and their band
This was one of the videos that really got me hooked on them. The live performances are just absurdly good. I can't wait until I can finally attend one in person. Road of Resistance, Live in Japan would be a great one to react to next. That or Rondo of Nightmare from Budokan Black Night, which shows off the backing band particularly well.
Check out BabyMetal " "Catch Me If You Can" live at Black Night Legend Doomsday show 3 Guitar solos, Drum solo, Monster Riffs, So Metal, So Cute Headbanging with a Smile!!!! Headbanger live was amazing!
Great reaction ! & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 In this video, you heard the crowd shout some words at 06:24. The words are "ki-e-ro 消えろ!" meaning "get out of here!". If you do search in TH-cam with keywords "babymetal 2019 forum headbang" you will find videos showing American audiences are shouting the same Japanese words at the Forum, LA. (17,000 audiences, sold out).
LOL You finally caved in. When SVC showed you this, I remember your WTF face... Don't worry, we've all been there with that face, before learning to appreciate, like and even love this talented and hard-working band.
for a few years now. this have been my niece's favorite band. she turned 9 today... as her uncle. i couldnt be more proud! i promised her when she gets a bit older we are defo going too see them together!
They've been around for 10 years and still going strong. Would love to see you react to their other songs. Megitsune Official MV would be perfect for Babymetal's genre and their culture.
YESSSS, More Babymetal !!!! :-). I was at their gig in Paris, last February. It was the best experience I've ever had in a concert. Babymetal Fans are soooo crazy
Great reaction, been waitin for you guys reactin to BabyMetal, and that was literally jaw dropped, your reaction was epic! Basically BM is an all genres mashed up with metal, everything is different, you'll never find any song from them that sounded the same, if you willing to continue this journey just remember to expect the unexpected and as Su-Metal (the lead singer) said, "don't think, FEEL!" Thank you for the reaction, and i guess your band member, Sonny-Metal has meet the qualifications to lead you guys for next song recommendation since he is THE ONE just like us, lol Keep the good work and have a good day!
The look on your two faces after the video ended was priceless. Made me think "what are the rest of us doing with our lives". Loved the reaction. Keep up the great work.
You have GOT to keep doing BABYMETAL! Please give us "Catch Me If You Can" (Live Black Night Legends Doomsday) and "Rondo of Nightmare" (Live with Mischiefs of God intro). Thank you so much, I promise it'll be worth it :)
The energy and effort they put out for the show is astonishing. The live is just on a different level. Great reaction. Hoping to see more Babymetal reactions.
Great reaction to an epic BABYMETAL song and live performance, thank you very much. Please keep reacting to them. Greetings from a german Kitsune 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼. Stay metal and healthy you all.
If you wish to see the Kami Band showcase their stuff. Here is a few suggestions Rondo of Nightmare, Catch me if you can, and or Yava. P.S. Babymetal has toured with all the big names in metal, and even collabed with a few of them.
If you want to up the ante on having never seen this level of participation, I recommend you watch Metrock 2015. A whole festival crowd participating, moshing, humongous circle pits. I'm still in awe as a metalhead.
You will not find a better live show anywhere in the world! The best.. And I've seen em live and it was off the fn hook.. Wondering why i can't get a like?!:(
ive already commented on this but i still comeback to you and metal mafia because both of you are real musicians and when you give respect it comes from a place of knowing.
Awesome reaction guys. Enjoyed watching tractors who understand the hard work, discipline and talent that goes into BabyMetal and their awesome Kami Band.
Wait wait wait.... I've been watching you for several months now, and didn't realize you hadn't been doing Babymetal! Welcome to The One - we have such sights to show you! I recommend "Pa Pa Ya" or "BxMxC", - each will blow your mind!

Sad
Luckily Babymetal has continued to go on super strong!
What .... which guy! How sad
@@blarmy827 the formerly guitarist died in 2018 from a fall he sustained at an observatory
@@blarmy827 Mikio Fujioka passed away
Su can, and has, opened a pit for a wall of death with nothing but arm movements. She is in absolute control of the crowd at all times.
NO BAND CAN EVEN COME CLOSE TO THEIR CROWD CONTROL OR MOSH PIT INTENSITY.
BABYMETAL are responsible for my journey down the rabbit hole to Japanese music! This era of BABYMETAL and The KAMI BAND was amazing!
Love the reaction and energy! This was the lead vocalist, “Su-Metals” 16th birthday. Fun little Easter egg at the end as she’s going up to the gong, you see the bassist head pop in and he has happy birthday written on the side of his head!

I didn't notice that.
Thnk you for sharing that valuable information
I never noticed that!! That's really sweet ^^
Its unbelievable how young they were when everything happened, thanks for sharing (:
Ichigo! it was actually 15 years old
"Babymetal roll harder than you." - Rob Zombie
Road of resistance official next please
Good song selection🍅
Don't do RoR next...its a good song but out of context its kinda meh. Do Akatsuki (Live) or Rondo of Nightmare (Live) instead.
road of resistance will hit you ;)
Great reaction....react to ROAD OF RESISTEANCE LIVE IN JAPANE...crazy
Agree🤘
YES.. Road of Resistance Live in Japan. I 3rd this vote.
yes
Yeah, Road of Resistance is best live by BABYMETAL that available in youtube .
This is a “Must See” master class in crowd control and a truly epic performance! FYI They were 16, 14 and 14 years old at the time! 😳😳
Of all the live version songs they performed, this is one of my favorites because of how amazing both babymetal and the fans are connecting with their songs.
You've not seen Babymetal Metrock 2015 have you ? :-)
I love the bmcxc one or whatever the name is lol I can never remember but watching a clip of them doing that one before the music video came out was 100% better live... the band is just insane along with the girls vocals and stage presence and crowd interactions
The first time they pause the video, and there's Moa looking unbelievably adorable.

That was the Kami Band backing them up - Mikio Fujioka (RIP) and Leda Cygnus on guitars, BOH with his 6 string bass and Hideki Aoyama on drums.

Legend 1997 is the beat concert they performed imo. Wish I could time travel and be at that event
Yui and Moa were actually only 14 at this show.
Headbangers is one of the best for mixing cuteness and metal from this band.

ha..ha..ha..🤣🤣🤣 you've been hit by deadly baby metal poison ... 😎😋
this super group is very very good live performance ..

Poison has such a negative connotation. Perhaps elixir, instead?

Was about time...ask Sonny von Cleveland. He is already deep in the foxhole! I just LOVE them.
Remember: live is almost ALWAYS best for them. Hell they did choreo for Tales of The Destinies which is a prog metal song they only performed once.
Only performed once - and I was there! AWESOME!
Happy Time! Su, that clean voice cutting through dense metal music, this band always give us goosebump, dunno why, maybe its SU voice!
