Is funny that you got a brain melt over the studio version. When you hear the Live version from Studio Coast currently at Prime you might pass out over a lot of things you missed from this one.
Another good one dude 👌
The Maids put all their music ideas into the BAND-MAID cooking pot, give it a stir & whatever comes out is always the perfect song recipe :)
They haven't missed yet. And l am still in awe.
I always envisioned it not as a cooking pot, but an industrial sized high speed blender...
Where were you on the stream mate? Didnt see your eloquent and inciteful feedback ;) Hehe. Hope all is well man. Chat soon
@@Running-withscissors Hi RWS long time no chat. I don't live chat much cos I get too many replies (that's not a boast just a fact) & I like to reply to most people but I can't keep up. Plus it was Midnight in England & I was tired. Lol
@@sacluvsBM Robert, the day I'm not in awe of B-M is the day they must finally be doing something wrong. The Maids have never failed me yet :)
FINALLY! Someone recognized Akane's brilliantly creative drumming in this killer track! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
Thrill was the song that hooked me on Band-Maid.
Secret My Lips with Akane's drums and MISA's bass is what landed me as a super-fan.
The introduction of the double bass kicking halfway through and following with it blasting away is what makes this song so fun for me.
I guess we all assumed already that Akane always does a fine job by now(?). I mean she's not my favorite drummer just because 🦧🥁
What do you mean FINALLY! We've always recognised Akanes brilliantly creative drumming, on every track.
But yes I get what you mean man. It's So recognised & So expected, that we don't comment on it often enough. Must change that.
The first song I heard was Freedom live, & that drum solo near killed me. I've loved that woman ever since.
@@785boats I was referring to her drumming on this song specifically, not in general. People always talk about the BPM's and the solo's, but the creativity & finesse she displays underneath everything going on in this song is some of her finest work. Just my opinion.
By sacred Madiac Law, THIS is how these 2 tracks are to viewed... So say we all!
So say the greater Sacramento metro area. Hello from downtown.
@@sacluvsBM And hello from the other town.
@@Badllamah
And a state far away.
hear hear!
I marvel at where Miku started with her group "Lil' Cumin" (There are some live videos and a music video) trying to break into the Idol Group scene and where she is now. I think Miku is the glue that keeps everything together, the other band members remark that inside, Miku is a "Middle Aged Business Man".
Sai-chan has ofter referred to ko bato as a little old man inside Miku. And that is what she means. In her song "l Still Seek Revenge" it doesn't take a genius to figure out who she wants revenge on and for small pigeon that revenge means becoming the biggest and best hard rock band working anywhere on the planet today. And if she and her co-conspirators gain that measure of success revenge will be complete. Regards. Sacramento loves Band-Maid.
Thank you for pointing that out. She is carved out of a solid block of determination and hard work with thin veneer of cute. The Mighty Miku! All hail!
The day you'll be reacting to Puzzle live version, you gonna pause every single second and going back a hundred time! Think it'll be your longuest reaction ever! :-D
I am waiting for it for months now... Puzzle is the holy grail of Band-Maid... At least for me and i know many other masters and princesses!
I hate it they removed it from their official TH-cam channel, a big mistake IMO
@@Slippy6582 100% agree!
It's my fav Band Maid song, and that is saying something as I love them all
As it turns out... it absolutely was. :)
The only band on the planet as good as Band Maid is Band Maiko! These ladies kill it both ways!
Wasn't enough to be the best rock band on the planet, they had to be the best TWO rock bands on the planet! Now that you have experienced the greatness of their April Fools Day projects it might be time to react to "Peace and Love" by Cluppo. I won't spoil it but you'll love it.
Miku's never underestimated by fans. Everyone loves Miku and she's improving so quickly as a guitar player to the extent that she plays mini solo in Sayonakidori (the latest miku song, very unique and I think it's proggy too). I think Saiki is the one who's often underappreciated or overlooked. Talking of Miku song, "Time" is another great song, and still is my favorite Miku song. "Rock in me" is another classic.
They did some interviews as Band-Maiko. They basically acted as if they were rivals to Band-Maid. They had new names, and their own character work (kind of like a wrestling persona). The interviewers would be like "Do you know your song sounds like this other band?" and Miku would answer in character as a member of the opposing band. They went all out.
Last April Fools wasn't a Band-Maiko offering, sadly. But happily, we got something we didn't know we wanted. Miku making her own solo project Cluppo, with her one song from it "Peace and love". There's your chance to see Miku in lead, though she has done some Band-Maid songs as the lead vocals. "Rock in me", "Time", and the newest "Sayonakidori".
@Leeke bot could you share where one could find those interviews? I'm very interested in any information/interview I can find about them.
Thanks
@@otobokegaijin6218 Thank you for sharing. I truly appreciate it.
@@otobokegaijin6218 You should join. I think you would enjoy it. I know I do.
Is Kanami shredding this entire song? Why yes, yes she is. :)
😂 love it!
Many of your comments are exactly what I recall thinking when I first heard Band-Maid's songs. I was stupefied but oh so satisfied by their writing, playing and sound starting with Thrill. They really launched my love affair with Alone and YOLO, etc.. But I had few who would listen to me or be as excited as me in the beginning. Now we can all share in our appreciation and support for this important and amazing group of musical geniuses known as Band-Maid. Thx again, Wave!
Alexander Pope, way back in the 18th century, said "Whoever thinks a perfect piece to see, thinks what was never was, nor is, nor ever shall be". It took 300 years and Band-Maid to prove him wrong.
Hello Wave. I'm so glad that someone suggested this to you. Secret Maiko Lips just might be my favorite thing the ladies have done.
It seems they always have fun whenever they perform but I get the feeling that the girls had considerably more fun than usual with Secret Maiko Lips.
Visually, Secret Maiko Lips is a five minute bowl of eye candy. Every one of the ladies look absolutely stunning in their Kimonos and full traditional makeup. (I read somewhere that the combined value of the Kimonos is between $65,000 - $70,000 US) Each kimono was selected specifically and fitted for each of the girls. Apparently it takes about 40 minutes, and two assistants to correctly put on a kimono. Then there's the makeup. Everything about the Maiko video is a pristine example of some Japanese artform.
Sonically, it's a masterpiece. If you give it another listen you will hear that the traditional instruments aren't just playing along with the contemporary instruments. Kanami wrote parts for each instrument to play around, over, and between the modern instruments. Miku rewrote parts of the lyrics throughout the song specifically for this video. This wasn't a case of one of them 'getting a wild hair' and throwing something together. It was absolutely an artistic endeavor every step of the way, and a labor of love for the fans.
I do not know what the production budget was, but I'm sure it was more than I'll make in the next few years. I have watched this video many times, and I still enjoy it as much as the first time.
BTW, since you seem to be genuinely interested in this sort of thing, please consider doing a review on this: th-cam.com/video/CbI79e5iZKs/w-d-xo.html
Not quite Judus Priest, maybe Buddhist Priest. I think you'll like it. 😏
Thanks again for doing what you do. I'm having a blast.
PS: it is pronounced; May-Ko, like the shark.
People have sort of made up the supposed rivalry between Band Maid and Band Maiko.
What actually happened was that they announced that they were changing to reflect their Japanese roots.
They changed all of their social media platforms, websites and even their names.
They even had people in their company and the Japanese music industry convinced that this was a real thing.
It was amazing.
Should we suggest Cluppo?
Dare we?
I am really thinking about it as my patreon request... but he has to go in absolutley blind.....
I agree!
Dare! Dare!
@@Badllamah "Blind" would be the best part. Nobody give it away!
When you said you liked the traditional instruments I smelled Wagakki Band coming soon. Metal + Traditional Japanese instruments. Homura + Akatsuki no ito - live in Japan is an S-Tier jumping off point to find the fusion. 🤙🏼 keep it up, brother
Yes, this. I was going to recommend specifically, especially since it showcases the shamisen in the first half.
I join your proposal!
My favorite Band Maid song, man am I looking forward to this one, is it 5:45 yet??!! 🎶🎸🥁🎸🎶🔥🙂
According to Kanami, the traditional Japanese instruments in this recording were "sampled" instruments, and not performed by actual musicians. For this recording, a technician did all the programming of the traditional instruments, but Kanami being a "quick learner" did the programming work herself at the next April Fool's recording.
@On Taka thanks for that info. I'm assuming that was an interview with Kanami, do you know where I could watch or read that interview. I've only come across a few of them and I would like to learn more about the band.
Thanks

Here are 2 articles where Band-Maid (as Band-Maiko) has given interviews after they have released a mini-album as Band-Maiko titled "Band-Maiko", with 6 "re-arranged" songs (all with Traditional Japanese instruments) and one new original song "Gion-Cho". This mini-album was released a year after their first April Fool song "Secret Maiko Lips".
Unfortunately, the article is in Japanese.
www.barks.jp/news/?id=1000165741
natalie.mu/music/pp/bandmaiko/page/2
Further Notes: As Geikos are given new names as entertainers, the members have also given themselves "Maiko (like) Names" when they are being Band-Maiko.
Miku Kobato → Hatoko (鳩子), Kanami → Kanoemi (叶笑) , Saiki → Fujiki (富士姫), Misa → Umemisa (梅美沙), Akane → Akatsuki (紅月)
After reading these articles, it seems my memory was a bit shady. The sound Engineer "Assisted" Kanami in inputting the traditional instruments rather than doing the whole work himself.
@@ontaka5997THANKS ! ! !😃
I truly appreciate your efforts. I'm about to lay down to get a few hours of sleep. I've been awake for 21 hours, so I'm kinda bleary eyed right now. I will look at these as soon as I get up. Just out of curiosity, what part of the world are you in? I'm in the south central part of the US.
Thanks again.
@@bob2161
I hope you got enough sleep by now.
I do enjoy your videos where you analyze the song by actually playing the song in parts (especially Akane's drumming).
I live in Japan, and I was "blessed" to have been able to attend Band-Maid concerts several times, including the "Line Cube" concert in February 2020. It is also the last concert I have attended until now (COVID sucks!).
YES!! MIKU MIKU MIKU!! THAAAAANKS!!!!!
Thank you for reacting to my favourite Band Maid song. Love all their music but this is the song I always want others to hear to see what a talent this band is.
they were masters of transition... after the 1st chorus going to 2nd verse they change... they are diverse and dynamically good
Rock in Me, Time (my favourite) and Sayonakidori are the songs where Miku sings lead vocals.
I think this is a top shelf choice for sharing with those you want to introduce to BM.
Also.. it has been pointed out that you never see Band Maid and Band Maiko in the same room.. Very shushispus..
Wave is always like a kid in a candy store when he listens to BAND-MAID 🤣
You want to see them live? If they swing back through the 'States they'll surely stop in LA. NYC is always on the list too. So, depending on where you live you'll be able to catch them.
Do "cluppo- peace and love" you will be surprise what miku can do.
Yes, Pigeons Will Save The World!
Ya, I agree with Jay. Check out "cluppo". They did not do a BAND-MAIKO for 2021 -- instead, Miku decided to create a new genre called "hippie-poppo" and created a side projected called "cluppo" (small "c"), and released a song "Peace and Love" for the 2021's April Fools "joke"! I put joke in quotes because the song is better than 95% of pop songs out there -- when a joke is not a joke. :P
@@JerryGoNuts I would say Band Maid pulls April Fools Pranks, not jokes, as they are not meant to be funny. The elaborate lengths they went to are impressive, for sure! Love "Peace and Love", btw!
Something that doesn't get mentioned enough about Miku is that she is also the main writer in most of the songs lyrics, specially in the later albums. Those catchy choruses mainly come from Miku's creative brain. She has mastered the way to make the lyrics flow with Kanami's compositions and fuse seamlessly with not a word out of place. Even fans that don't know any Japanese can appreciate the skill in her lyric writing. Everyone in this band is absolutely amazing at what they do. How this magical fusion happened where they all came together in one band is nothing short of miraculous.
Yes!! Miku is my favorite maid! If you read her interview from the day before world domination mook on Reddit, you're gonna appreciate her even more
Still my no.1 Band Maid song
Fun fact: There's a video of MISA, Akane and Kanami during the filming of this video. Akane blow off some "gas". Kanami tries to keep her composure and MISA proceed to LOL hard.
Secret Maiko Lips isn’t simply Secret My Lips overlaid with some traditional Japanese instruments. Miku actually rewrote the lyrics into the old Kyoto dialect of the Geishas, and they rearranged some parts so they just re-recorded it all. All in order to deliver the perfect April Fool’s Day surprise! They also announced they were taking a new direction and changed their name and social media for 24 hrs to Band Maiko, then changed everything back the following day! Such dedication to a plan.💪🏻🤘🏻
I heard that on that day, there was a worldwide earth tremor, as fans pounded their keyboards.
Awesome as always, Wave! "There's something going on in the background it sounds so interesting!" This detailed composition is one of the biggest reasons why I love Band-Maid. I get bored quickly listening to most music but Band-Maid are masters at creating songs that are relentlessly unpredictable. The structure may not vary too much, but the way they fill that structure keeps my mind happy, even after months of listening.
All Band-Maiko songs were sang in Kyoto-direct, different from Band-Maid standard or Tokyo direct. It is actually pretty funny and super well done.
I guess we bugged you enough with this request ... lol. Thanks for obliging ;) . Great reaction! That MISA HOWL is worth the price of admission.
They actually redid their entire website ... it was a really elaborate hoax. Actually scared a LOT of people in believing this was the new direction for the band. Hilarious ... and well done. You can still buy the 4 song EP from BAND MAIKO.
I remember this release it was a massive troll they even changed the official website and everything...Band-Maid do so much for us fans always it's no wonder we all love them so much
I keep returning to this as it is so good in every sense. Not seen it said before but one of Band Maid's major strengths is how utterly feminine they are in every situation. Gentle ladies with limitless talent.
If you have Band-Maid Prime you can see one of the best live versions of this song on the recent uploads of the Studio Coast show. SOOOO much awesomeness in that show.
The lyrics were rewritten in the Kansai-Ben by Miku, which is the traditional dialect of Kyoto/Gion spoken by the Maiko and Geisha.
The fan thing is one of the traditional games played by the Maiko with guests.
The whoop! thing MISA does is also traditional.
Also the member names come from traditional Maiko names.
Others have touched on this, but to sum it up... In the Kyoto region an apprentice geisha is known as a maiko. Band Maiko completely rewrote the lyrics in the song using the dialect of Kyoto. They take their April Fools seriously!! Also, in the beginning of Secret Maiko Lips, she is writing "World Domination". Oh, and the fan tossing is a traditional game called Tohsenkyo.
As far as the traditional instruments go, my understanding is that being initially set up by a tech, Kanami learned how to sample the instruments and did the final work. If you hear sampling on any of their more recent music, Kanami is the one doing it.
Wave, your reactions to Band-Maid make me smile almost as much as the videos from Band-Maid (and Band-Maiko) do. Gion-Cho is a Band-Maiko original and it is a lovely song and video (on the B-M channel). Also, as others have suggested, you might want to check out Cluppo's song "Peace and Love" from April 1 of this year. You might recognize the singer.
I’m so glad to hear that! And thank you for the suggestions! That’s definitely coming soon!
@@WavePotter BUT you MUST go into it BLIND!!! Absolutely blind. Trust us on this!
As if this composition wasn't great enough, Band-Maid puts a coda on the end (is that redundant?) of this song. Notice how Akane steps out of the way during the coda and simplifies the beat to give room to those sweet harmonies you talked about.
This!. I have not found anyone so far to comment on this point. The composition and execution of the drums in this song should be taught in music schools.
Maiko are Geisha in training. They're wearing kimonos. In the 2nd appearance of Band-Maiko in 2019 they had individualized kimonos.
Maiko and Geisha are entertainers and hostesses. They read poetry, play instruments, and play traditional games with their guests like the fan game you saw in the video.
You need to watch Band-Maiko Gion-cho to really get a feel for a song completely composed in the Band-Maiko style. Its also a visually stunning video.
Nice!!. Band Maid knows how to enhance a masterpiece in an epic project. I no longer consider this as an April's Fools Day joke but as a side project. The amount of talent expended in transforming Band Maid into Band Maiko is simply staggering. The costumes, the ancient instruments added (composed by ... Kanami), the story on their website or social media profiles, the change of names, the publication of a seven-song EP ... Wonderful project. How many bands love their fans so much that they spare no effort to surprise them?
The video is the studio recording sync'd to live footage.
And my favorite parts of the song are the guitar solo to jazz break to hard-core breakdown, and the outro...
Great reaction!
First time I heard Secret my lips, the ending reminded me of an anime theme or something that should be in an anime. I know they have that wish completed but whatever they do is awesome. I love these ladies so much. So much talent and so humble. I'm so glad that one little pigeon had a dream and the drive to make it come true with the help of four other insanely talented women. You can tell they love what they are doing and I hope that they stay with us for decades to come.
akane and moa-metal walked into a restaurant.... they ran out of food
among my top 5 b-m tracks for its sheer majesty...
Miku writes World Domination, btw! Misa's howls are worth listening to this song, alone!
Band Maiko are:
Hatoko
Fujiki
Kanoemi
Akatsuki
and Umemisa.
A little noticed detail is that the lyrics and vocal performances are different between each version. Secret Maiko Lips has lyrics that more relate to the experience of a maiko or geisha, and are also written in the Kansai-ben dialect. The Kansai region includes Kyōto, the former imperial capital and a centerpiece of ::drumroll:: geisha and maiko culture. Not only are the lyrics different, but the overall accent is different. There’s no true analogy to an American accent/dialect, but it’s kinda like how punk bands sometimes end up emulating a British accent when singing, or if a band does a country-ish song they end up adopting a little twang in their voice. The Kansai dialect is as distinct from the Tokyo dialect as a New York accent is from a southern accent, and is easily recognizable to Japanese speakers. So this song has a distinct vocal shift that non-speakers rarely recognize. Just a bit of cool info to increase the overall appreciation
What’s up Wave!!! You gotta realize that when Miku formed the band she couldn’t play a lick on the guitar, their manager thought having twin singers would be great but realized something was missing, their idea was to have Saik hold a guitar, unfortunately, Saiki didn’t look good holding one!! 😂 Miku then stepped up to the plate! You can clearly see in the Thrill MV where Miku is holding her Rickenbacher! Kanami told Miku that if she’s gonna hold a guitar she might as well learn how to play it! Kanami has been her Sensei since that day and still is! Miku has flourished into a great rhythm guitarist!
Best decision ever, for Miku to play as a rhythm guitarist. It frees Kanami up to basically go off through entire songs if she chooses. And she very often does!
Great reaction and glad you were able to do both. Maiko as I understand it is "my ko". From what I hear, the traditional instruments are the 3-string samisen (banjo like sound), the koto (sort of like a harp laid horizontally and plucked with finger picks), a flute and tama drums. What Miku is writing at the beginning is "World Domination". Also, I believe there is a video of the making of this video, but can't remember where it is now.
Actually all their "making movie" videos are in their official web site as O-MEI-SYU SAMA SPECIAL MOVIE.
@@JuanSan66 Thanks, I couldn't remember where they were
Miku....." The Little Engine That Could ". All the Maids say....." She is one busy lady " & if not for her determination there would be no, Band Maid. Much love, " Little Pigeon "😎
Just like BAND-MAID, I can always count on Wave Potter to deliver high quality entertainment. Sugoi, po!
They actually a whole album as BAND MAIKO
Your reactions are so great. I really appreciate your insight
Thank you so much Adam! Glad you appreciate it!
One of my favorite Akane songs, Everything she does in Secret My Lips are tasty, just tasty.. And love when Kanami goes ham for the entire last minute of the song
Not many react to the couple if clips out there of the wonder that is, Mikus magic time harking back to her maid cafe days pretty fun.
The kanji Miku painted says “World Domination” in Japanese.
No Miku, No Band Maid, that's all there is!
BTW: If you are wondering what Miku was gracefully writing at the beginning of the video, 世界征服 translates as "WORLD CONQUEST", i.e.: "World Domination".
shimasen is the instrumente MISA is 'playing' in the intro
Thanks again for another great reaction/analysis. The things you point out about Akane's drumming are especially valuable to me, since a lot of those subtleties are lost on me and I love learning about them.
Also, since you're studying Japanese you'll learn this soon, but words don't generally end with a consonant (the exception is 'n' or ん). So "maid" spelled in Japanese is メイド, or meido (meh-ee-doh). It uses katakana instead of hiragana because it's a loan word from another language.
Pronouncing "Band Maid" with those phonemes comes out Bando Meido, and now it rhymes with "Maiko". Just another level of effort they put into this "joke" project. :)
Also, as someone else said, if you want to see more traditional Japanese instruments fused with rock/metal, then Wagakki Band is a must. People often start with a live performance of Homura + Akatsuki no Ito and I recommend it, too, because in the first song there is an absolutely killer shamisen solo.
Anyway, thanks again for these fun and informative videos!
Keep it up, Wave - you're kicking serious reaction ass!
A Maiko is a trainee Geisha and subject to years of intense training in many facets of traditional Japanese art. The full costumes weigh around 45 lbs and the recording session exhausted them. The shamisen and other traditional Japanese instruments were added electronically at production by Kanami ( who else? ). The final version is superb and shows the real beauty of the band in every sense.
Best band in the world right now IMO
The banner ko bato is making at the start says World Domination.
The fan is a drinking game like beer pong.
I am guessing that someone said this way below, so forgive me if this is redundant.
While great as a standalone, this was released on 4/1/18 as an elaborate April Fools gag. As mentioned below, the following year they released the whole mini-album. It's beautifully produced. They translated the "covers" (all but 1 of the songs), I hear, into Kyoto dialect. Talk about attn to detail. Check it out!
MISA!!! MISA!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃
The live version is even better.👍
You stopped secret MAIKO lips at the end early before you see Akatuki shifts hers eyes at Hatoko. Funniest part of the video for me. Second is the eating scene.
" And that's what I appreciates about yous"
- Squirrly Dan..... / Wave Potter
MISA MISA MISA! Umemisa Umemisa Umemisa!
Band-Maiko was done on March 31rst (April fools) in 2019, and 2020. Unfortunately they didn't do it this year.
It was 2018 and 2019. Unfortunately there was no April Fools project/song in 2020 because of Covid.
Yup2 Akane hits like "No mercy" before her back pain😭 or surgery ..but now still hits her kits like "there will be no tomorrow"😅..
Could someone please check if we have a new record for pauses in a reaction video here? I have a feeling about it. 😂 But to be honest, I didn't expect it any other way with this song. Simply an awesome track with a lot of details. And the cover by the lovely Maikos adds a good dose of spice to the whole thing. This is so much more than a simple April Fool's joke.
With all the talent that has come together in this group, you would think that success would come by itself or is pre-programmed. But without Miku's idea and above all her willpower to fight for this project and to make sacrifices, we wouldn't be talking about B-M here today. For my part, I will never be able to thank this sweet lady enough for everything she does! 🙏🏻💞
🕊️ 【 'Pigeons will save the world.' - cluppo / Miko Kobato】🕊️
Thank you Miku! 😊
You can enjoy this song live on Band Maid Prime. Okyuji BAND-MAID TOUR Autum-Winter 2017 part 2 at 19:40 time mark. Spoiler: You are going to be uplifted to heaven. The final coda reaches the meaning of absolute perfection.
Think of the folding fan throwing game as an indoor version of horseshoes. Better while drinking.
If you love Band Maiko, you should check out their original piece - Gioncho
Miku also write the lyrics. The hardest working pigeon in showbiz.
Ah my 2 favourite bands and the only 2 who can rival each other. Btw you might have mistaken Band-Maiko for some other people. They are Hatoko, Fujiki, Kanoemi, Akatsuki and Umemisa. Who is this Akane that you are talking about?
Band Maid Secret my Lips reaction---> Subbed!
Moin, ich hab ihn auch schon links in meiner Liste. Wie geht's denn so?
Gesundheitlich kanns immer besser sein bei mir...aber ansonsten alles gut!😀 Will mich nicht beklagen.
Hast schon ordentlich das Bremer Umland mit deinem Oldtimer unsicher gemacht?
@@kanyon7613 Ehrlich gesagt soviel auch nicht, dafür war ich vor zwei Wochen auf´m CX Treffen in der Nähe des Edersees kurz bevor der große Regen kam. In den letzten Tagen hab ich mit ´nem Schrauberkumpel eine Ente wieder aufgehübscht. Jetzt hab ich auch wieder etwas mehr Zeit, darum werde ich mit meinem alten Diesel wieder etwas mehr durch die Gegend zuckeln. Wenn Du Lust hast komme ich mal rum. Ich würde Dir für diese Privatsache gerne meine email Adresse auf Deinem Kanal hinterlassen, wo wir Weiteres beschnacken könnten.
Might I recommend Gacharic Spin? They're just as talented as Band Maid (if not, dare I say it, more so) and their latest single "Mindset" is freakin' amazing, the bass alone just makes the song.
sensaTIONAL tHEY ARE aMAZING
You wanted to hear Miku take the lead vocals, go ahead and check out Cluppo - Peace & Love (this years april fools "joke"): th-cam.com/video/kR-FPvYgPjM/w-d-xo.html
Didn't see anyone mention it here but as you picked out placement of flowers in Miku and Saiki's hair, you missed that Akane's flower is exactly where she used to have her tiny hat (before it was purged ... boo)
Don't know if anyone said it before, but besides the instruments and costumes, they also changed the lyrics from standard/modern Japanese to Kyoto accent. It's even more apparent in their Maiko-original Gion-cho (Gion town, which is/was the Geisha district in Kyoto). Also, you've got to love the shot of Kanami playing in front of the illuminated Tokyo Tower.
A Maiko is an apprentice Geisha. The sport is a drinking game in Japan.
A Maiko in Kyoto is called a Geisha in Tokyo
@@goodsong6732 Interesting. This was shot in Kyoto, I believe and is the interpretation presented, I believe.
Yes the Akane thing has to do with her "charm point" of eating. Also you should check out the MV for Don't you tell ME. All kinds of little Band-Maid Easter eggs. Kanimi's love for Saiki, Miku's maid background, Akane's hunger, Saiki being an ice queen, and Misa's love for da booze.
A maiko is a geisha in training.
Also, Secret Maiko Lips is sung in Kyoto dialect.
I think it is time to go to Wagakki Band p rock with tradicional Japanese instruments and 'normal' rock instruments.
I was going to go to bed at a decent time. I appreciate Miku to . I still can't pick a favorite.
I can still remember the lively discussion about Akane's drumming in the "Secret my Lips" video, whether she really plays it all herself or whether she has been helped electronically. To prove that she plays everything herself, Vladimir's Amsterdam video was used, where you can see how the microphone cable in the hole of the bass drum twitches with every kick. In the meantime, there are no doubts at all about Akane's abilities.
How sad that it was even called into question. She’s definitely one of my top 5 favorite drummers of all time at this point. Such a great experience to listen and watch her play!
There were people who used to say that none of them actually play! I think that’s why they always have the cameras focusing on their hands playing, rather than their hemlines.
When he's already geeking out over Secret My Lips and we all know Secret Maiko Lips is so extra. hah
15:22 they start the "fan thing" as you call it. its a game played by Maiko. It takes some skill to knock that piece over with a fan that will be flipping in mid air. Its a VERY old "game".
Wave my dude please check out Band-Maid - The Dragon Cries. easily the most underrated(least viewed other then MIku demonstrating hand washing technique "Hard Wash" ) BM song. not many reactors do it. i don't want to give away spoilers but there is a cool solo notes not played are some of the best. so band maid doing band maid things
Yes, a Maiko is an apprentice Geisha, hence BAND-MAIKO playing, 'Secret Maiko Lips'. It's their April Fool's Day video. Now you have to do the other BAND-MAIKO song, 'Gion Cho'. No Akane can not wait. She needs to keep her energy level up. She is a banana power half gorilla / half drum machine, and only MISA can even come close to keeping up with her.
Secret my lips,moratorium,puzzle awkward live is one of a master piece way back befor! Upuntill now and if u like a gem and underrated music from them try order,matchless gum and many more from b side album
