Headbanger is about coming of age, but they use the tale of a girl going to her first metal concert on her 15th birthday to illustrate it. There are fan cam videos taken from concerts in France and Germany in 2014 (they played these two before their appearance at Sonisphere where they really broke through in the west) where Su ceremonially handed over the mic and stand to Yui (it was her 15th birthday) and Moa (it would be her 15th birthday within days) and each took over the lead vocals for the last verse or so and the end of the song while Su took their place.
The 'ki-e-ro' crowd chant moment at 4:25 still gives me goosebumps to this day. Made all the more effective as the instruments all come back in. Cheers!
@@oniichandestroyah3489 Yes, Su's birthday is the 20th of December. The "Legend 1997" concert took place on the 21st of December 2013, the day after her 16th birthday. Maybe she got to spend her actual birthday with her family, or maybe she was rehearsing for the show.
⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤘 As ClawCarver pointed out, this was a special 2013 concert for Su's sixteenth Birthday, called 'Legend 1997'. This concert started with nine songs that included the "Baby Bones" miming as their backup band, but finished up with a five song encore featuring the live Kami Band. There were actually two more songs after this 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!' performance. At this point that was one of their biggest hits, although this same concert saw the debut of 'Gimme Chocolate !!'.
This "Legend 1997" (along with "Legend 1999" on the same disc) was the first Show I ever bought from them on Blu-Ray. And you can hardly imagine the amount of joy I had just from watching the footage if you don't experience it for yourself. And it was absolutely crazy how I got pumped. This was the first and only time I watched one of their shows in the late evening because I couldn't get into sleep for hours after that.
#BABYMETAL earned ¥1.097 billion for 107,500 tickets sold on tour making them the #1 female artist in Japan and second in the biggest touring market in industry of year 2019. They are also the most successful female group in history with no sexy concept. Congratulations
Another enjoyable reaction guys I love this song .Do not worry they will tour again it is getting tickets which is the hard part .Every time I watch a song from this show I always love watching the guy in the Pikachu costume bouncing as high as he can. Little did he know how famous he would be . Wonder who he is ?
If you want to see how they use the statue, you need to watch the last song: Babymetal Death Legend 1997. :-) An other amazing performance. Edit: I think the reason why this show (and Budokan) comes up a lot with reactions is purely for practical reasons, a lot of their shows are blocked on TH-cam. The other shows all have their own amazing elements too. Babymetal allows these shows to remain on TH-cam, more as promotional material I think.
A little bit of the lyrics to this song in English goes as such.... I know i'll never forget this special night my fifteenth. All you cry babies Go on get out.... Go get out of here! WITH RAVEN HAIR, TANGLED EVERYWHERE, LEGENDARY, GORGEOUSLY. THIS FLOWER SOON DISAPPEARS FROM ME. FRUITLESS, BLOOMING CRAZILY. IT'S LEAVING ME, WON'T COME BACK AGAIN. SUDDENLY IT'S VANISHING. BUT I WON'T FORGET ETCHED IN MY HEART. THIS SPECIAL NIGHT MY FIFTEENTH. I'M JUMPING, DANCING IN THE AIR. HEADBANGEEERR
This song is another favorite of mine. I could tell you the full story about this song but others will do so. So I thought i'd post some of the lyrics. At the start when Su begins to sing if you sing the words I have in CAPS in my other post you can see how they fit. I totally love this song.
yes they are a show. now as others have said this show was for Su's 16th birthday. the last song was wild. the song death normally was the opening song til this show. it was epic to finish a show. it was for her to die and be reborn as a queen. not really a true song in the sense but a show with the crowd interaction. there are still so many of their songs to react to. they did come to the USA this year in May. there are several good fan cams from the Atlanta show that is good to react to. but Yui was not there so they still had Moa but then had two more girls in the background dancing to the mix. the Atlanta crowd was the best for here.
It's so much fun to go on the BABYMETAL journey with you two! There's another "must see" video from that show, the song is called "BABYMETAL DEATH": th-cam.com/video/jRc9dbgiBPI/w-d-xo.html. Another video I'd like to recommend is from the Tokyo Dome show and features two songs that were originally created as a single one, but then split before release: "Tale of the Destinies" and "The One". The first one is Prog Metal at its best à la Dream Theater, the second is a more mellow, but epic tribute to the fans (The One is what they call the fanbase). There's a special gimmick in the show to incorporate the 55.000 fans in the audience that I'm not going to spoil, but it's incredible! The whole thing is 18 minutes long, but it will keep you entertained throughout. That performance will leave you speechless, I promise! Unfortunately, you'd probably have to mute the sound and make us sync up, otherwise it would be pretty much guaranteed to be blocked. www.dailymotion.com/video/x5ggoil
Even though Su can certainly hit some high notes, I really love her voice in this range. She's so powerful and mature sounding. Most of my favorite BM songs have her singing in this range. I am saddened knowing this a tune that probably won't be performed live again since all the "girls" are adults now. (BTW- I love the "I'm 18" ending, I've just always wondered if it was intentional)
Cuando Suzuka toca ese platillo gigante (no recuerdo como se llama) hace referencia a Yoshiki ( x japan) cuando después de tocar Art of life, antes de desmayarse, como ultima acción hace lo mismo.
This and Catch me if you can songs that the audience is extremely noisy and exhausted By the way, did you buy a Nobori (mark of store) patch (Matsumoto's kakigouri-ya shaved ice shop)?
Fernando Novo I have followed Babymetal for so long now!! I have watched Sakura Gakuin amd learnt Japanese for two years so I know the girls personalities well. I was devastated that Yui had to part ways absolutely crushing the trio had a great chemistry with the fans. Anyway I finally saw them for the first time 3 days ago in Brisbane, Australia. It was a festival headed by the Offspring called Good Things Festival and it was my first ever music festival event. They had a replacement for Yui FINALLY! Her name is Saya Hirai. I don't know anything about her except that she fitted well on stage and the whole group rocked it was great.
This song I like best, together with Megitsune. I saw you also react to Japanese band Maximum the hormone, but have you already reacted to Dir en grey? Such an underrated band. I would very much like it if you could react to Chain repulsion? th-cam.com/video/cQIibn7j1bE/w-d-xo.html

That show, in 2013, was a special concert to celebrate Su-metal's 16th birthday. Hence "Legend 1997", the year in which Suzuka Nakamoto was born.
In 20 december right? Correct me if I wrong...

Jumping as high as he can… off timing lol
Heavy music concert, pop vocals and performance art all in one - very entertaining!

I would say this song (Headbanger), that time/date, at place makuhari messe is the epic concerts of all time in babymetal history...damn...
They are just amazing. Period..
A little bit of the lyrics to this song in English goes as such....
I know i'll never forget this special night my fifteenth.
All you cry babies
Go on get out....
Go get out of here!
WITH RAVEN HAIR, TANGLED EVERYWHERE, LEGENDARY, GORGEOUSLY.

More reaction for Babymetal! Do Ijime, Dame, Zettai - Live at Sonisphere UK 2014 and Rondo Of Nightmare - Live at the Budokan
You guys might as well check out their song “Death” from the same concert. You’ll be in for a treat. The Virgin Mary statue plays a role in it
Great reaction as always guys, more Babymetal please.
thanks.. will do
Epic! Epic! Epic! Brilliant song, MetalAF and Su, Moa and Yui...Epic!
Genuine "wish i was there" fun reaction.

On Su's 16th B'Day...Yui and Moa were 14. RIP - Mikio Fujioka, the Little Guitar God. Bye, Yui.
The song maker make this song can use crowd as parts of this song... that's why "Headbanger" is my number 2 song after "Megitsune"
Su-Metal sets the crowd on fire and it’s Yui and Moa’s job to put the fire out.
That's no doubt the Cutest, most Brutal thing I've Ever seen... 😲🤩😍🤘👏🙌
Suzuka Nakamoto
Long Live the Queen !! 👑👑 👑
Even though Su can certainly hit some high notes, I really love her voice in this range. She's so powerful and mature sounding. Most of my favorite BM songs have her singing in this range.

Funny you say that. Her voice right now sounds absolutely more mature and beautiful now
Wow....i loved baby metal
Cuando Suzuka toca ese platillo gigante (no recuerdo como se llama) hace referencia a Yoshiki ( x japan) cuando después de tocar Art of life, antes de desmayarse, como ultima acción hace lo mismo.
最後のガーンが良い良い
Try Babymetal Ijime, Dame, Zettai live in Sonisphere UK 2014

The shirt is from Matsumoto from Hawaii. I got it a long time ago.
Or checkout black baby metal- onedari daisakusen
Kami band is the base of this whole act....pity that one of the girls has left the group...

Please react to Tricot! Japanese Rock band made up of 3 girls and 1 guy on drums. Start with their earlier songs “Oyasumi” or “Pool” 👍
This song I like best, together with Megitsune. I saw you also react to Japanese band Maximum the hormone, but have you already reacted to Dir en grey? Such an underrated band. I would very much like it if you could react to Chain repulsion? th-cam.com/video/cQIibn7j1bE/w-d-xo.html
