- I honestly forgot I did this video...Just found it. Someone put it in the wrong folder.....anyway, what an interesting song!
Here is the link to the original video

In their interview with Player Magazine September 2018 issue, Miku explains the reason for Screaming being the B-side to Start Over.
Miku: We put into Screaming what we saved in Start Over.
Simple as that.
These girls are brilliant and when Saiki says she doesn't give a fuck, I believe HER! Akane is my drum Goddess. All these girls are my goddesses
BAND-MAID songs are all difficult to sing in karaoke. So the members (probably Saiki and Akane) asked Kanami to make a song that could be sung in karaoke. Kanami siad "Sure".
Many fans complained about this song. "Too poppy". In response to the complaint, BAND-MAID has released RINNE.
In any case, BAND-MAID does BAND-MAID things. They show the top musicianship.
Love your comment, mate!
The vocal timing is what makes Saiki/Miku vocals so hard to cover. Their timing is often quite quirky, almost stream of consciousness stuff.
These ladies should be on every radio station in the US. No matter what the genre, the Maids have a song for it. This would lite up the pop channels. Band Maid shows the pop world how to write a great pop song! F'n love it.
Bloody well said, mate!
I can only confirm that for the western part of Europe as well. So often I ask myself when songs are on the radio, how these have made it to a release at all. There is so much good real music out there. And I don't just mean from our heroes in maid outfits. :)

I love this song. Pop-jazz fusion classic with very bandmaid-distinctive choice of chords and notes, that give every b-m tracks subtle hint of prog.
For fans like me who are into all genres of music, they tick all boxes.
Kanami Tōno what a genus not only a great artist but a even better composer, her finger on trigger and never misses. Thanks for Reaction Ryan
Akane, my favorite drummer ever, replacing the likes of John Bohnam and Neil Peart. Her tool kit is just massive, so creative. It's always been the sound she gets for me. She is always present but not overbearing. I would not say she is a better soloist than either Bohnam or Peart, I wouldn't put it past her in the future though. But in song drumming, give me Akane any day. So smart, knowing exactly what and how to play, whenever, and how she can compliment all her mates when it is their time to shine. She has what I think all the members have, very,very high musical sensibility. She is still young. I don't think she will stop growing for a while yet. And seriously, what she did on Unseen World! You don't get that good unless you are loving what you are doing.
Nothing to add, Mark!
These days you’re lucky if a song of this style even has anyone playing real instruments, let alone a full band of master musicians playing so well, and showing everyone how good even a simple pop song can be.
Well said. I agree 💯%.

I grew up on BIllboard Top 40 on the Radio. This song brings me back to that era but modernized Band-Maid way. I daresay people who initially don't like this will end up liking it if they give it a couple of listens...just like any Band-Maid song.... there are a lot of people who didn't like the Conqueror album who have the same complaint that it's not hard enough. ..If they watch the Shibuya concert 11 out of the 21 songs were from Conqueror and they sounded amazing!!
Here’s my take on this tune Ryan! It may be a little half-measured but here it goes! There was a time where Kanami had a bit of writers block, whatever she was going thru, idk! She couldn’t come up with any music, as you can see in the video, it metaphorically explains what she was going thru!!!! By now you know how close the band is so they got together and inspired Kanami, start over was born! The very last line signifies the change that was made to move forward! As you know they did!
Band-Maid makes everything better. Driving to work? It's better with Band-Maid. Studying for school? Better with Band=Maid. Catastrophic relationship damage? Better with Band-Maid. Standard formula poppy song structure? WAY better with Band-Maid.
What a compliment!
This song is great for showing how diverse their music can be🎶🎸❤️
I absolutely love Ryan's love for Band-Maid
Ok. I figured out why they’re so good. For me, go work out your own opinion if you disagree. Each band member is giving everything they have on every song. Whether it’s playing instruments, on stage, in the studio, writing songs…. 100% focus all the time for world domination.
Well said, Kevin. It's also the invisible feel-good aura they exude in everything they do.🙂
I have said several times it is love; for each other, for the music they create and for the people they present it to. They want you to smile when you hear them and that is a wonderful motivation to have.
Okay, there are lots of really good bands out there, but only one i love for their music, skills, style, behaviour,stage presence and for Saiki, Kanami, Misa, Miku and Akane being these amazingly talented,lovable
Supermaids.Even cryptonite would not harm them, they would just shine even brighter-po.🕊
Mid-tempo masterpiece! And the Saiki F bomb is delicious! I really like this song a lot!
This is why and why i love bandmaid because of the range of genre. Dont f#$king care of what others not liking the song. I like anything bandmaid produce. The greatness of this band
Coming from a region where the blues , jazz are the norm I found this piece from ladies veyr fun , and refreshing . So diverse in all the right ways .
Ty you Ryan for checking this out .
I enjoy Bandmaid's jazzy side. Last night I was listening to this then some Melody Gardot.
@@bartyslattfast I had to look her up... Sad face .. She is very good . Like her style .Ty for mentioning this artist .
Awesome reaction! They can create their own sound in any genre. I play the piano, so I absolutely love Kanami's piano performance!
I totally agree with Akane. She makes this song fun to listen to. You never get something boring from her.
😎👍A courageous band that continues bold experiments.
Why I love BAND-MAID.
Pure jazz...we get Kanami on both piano and lead guitar. And, of course, Saiki tells us what she really thinks..."IDGAF!" - Saiki Atsumi
Saiki looked classy even when saying the F word :p In REAL EXISTENCE live video, her flip the bird way was graceful. What a queen she is!!
the chorus sounds extra impactful when it's so restrained before it. And MISA playing like piano lines
The song is, at least, good like any B-M songs, but the best things about this single is the god damn unexpected crazy heavy and speed, at the time the single came out, B-Side "Screaming" (and the Blu-Ray concert on the collector bonus) :p
Take care
This song is the reason why Rinne exist.
If Led Zeppelin did that song you know it was them. If Van Halen did that song you would know it was them.
You know when it is the Beatles. You know when it is the Stones...
So Devil.
So Angel.
You ALWAYS know…..
When it’s Band Maid.
I was waiting with anticipation for your reaction to the last line that was coming. It is just not something you would expect from Saiki. Sweet little creature that she is.
Sadly this song gets overlooked. Is it the greatest Band-Maid song, no. But it just shows the wide range they are capable of and I love Misa's funky bass licks. I always considered this their Rom-Com theme song.
Unfortunately not hard or fast enough for some "FANS". Accompanying storyline to the video, probably doesn't help either.
Their Rom-com song!!!!! Dude! That is genius! You're right, it totally sounds like it 🤣
I like this song, and I agree, it gets overlooked, I'm glad Ryan gave it some love 😁
@@charlest.velten6983 I didn't know what think of this song at first, but I focused what MISA and Akane were doing and it got a lot better for me very quick.
I'm coming to realize that, one, I love every song that Band-Maid performs, and two, that for their MVs I prefer that they be the main focus of the MV and that if they need other elements that they should be simple like in the MVs "Endless Story" and "Dice." I mostly like the live videos but some of the MVs are very good like "Manners, " "Daydreaming," "Don't you tell ME," and "Blooming."
Also my "Unseen World" scorebook arrived today, 2 days early. Only had time to glance so far but it's gorgeous. Looking forward to reading the interviews and listening to the CD tomorrow.
First time I heard this I thought, "If I were the executive producer of a sitcom... GET ME KANAMI TONO ON THE PHONE, NOW!" Another in the myriad of examples that this band can do ANYTHING. Just better. 🕊
Remember, Kanami's first instrument was piano; she came relatively late to guitar; I think she started in high school. "Sounds like Santana?" Well, two of Kanami's guitar gods are Santana and Larry Carlton.
This song is fun and I actually see a little of this in Corralium. Saiki seems to enjoy singing in a bit of a "swing" style at times. And like you I love Akane in this song.
Shut Up!! Kanami is...tickling the ivories. The fact they can do this AND Black Hole...it's why why why I'm Maidiac
Reading the comments there was one that said least favorite song. The next said favorite song. That's an indicator of a great band.
The MV takes criticism, but the parts showing the band are spectacular with the bright light in the white room. Akane even mentions in the acoustic commentary video that the setting reminded her of the Start Over video. I recommend watching the live version from the Dec. 2020 live stream. They had a beautiful video backdrop of snowy evergreen trees, and it was great.
I was a Dream Theater fan for almost 30 years until Band-Maid kicked them off the throne. If you think there is much bitching and whining on BM channel about song and albums the fans doesn't like, you've seen nothing yet. Over at DT's YT channel the bitching, whining and moaning are endless no matter what song or album DT have out. DT fans doesn't seem to be very happy about their favorite band. And then Portnoy left or got the boot (I don't care which is was) and Mike Mangini came on board, Mangini being one of the best drummers ever to exist was not good enough for the hard core fans, damn it took him 10 years until the last album of DT to be accepted and recognizied by some of the fans.
When it comes to the fanbase of Band-Maid it's more like a lovefest compared to the fanbase of DT. This is something I find very pleasing with Band-Maid fans, they seem to get along very well with little bitching and whining :-) I'll follow Band-Maid to the end of time that is for sure, the best band in the world will probably only get getter with time, and they are damn good already.
haha, I remember when I first heard this song when it was brand new. I had to play it quite a few times. but that first time I heard Saiki say "I don't give a F...." OMG I died. I was like holy S did she really just say that? it was a powerful ending to such a great groove and funky pop feel to an emotional packed video. It was what Band-Maid is often about, creating that gap between what you expect and what is delivered. It got a lot of hate at first from those that expect something specific. and it's a perfect example of how difficult it can be to listen without prejudice. No matter how hard I try, once I fall in love with a band, there are changes, things they do, curveballs, that I don't see or feel coming and sometimes one has to put the song down, walk away and come back to it before one can really listen to it with a fresh and open mind. I imagine this song was like that for many Band-Maid fans. But it is really a good song that I come back to often. I actually prefer to listen to it without this particular video as I'm not a fan of the non-Band-Maid actors they chose for this MV. (not sure why they just don't fit properly for me) nice reaction Ryan, I enjoyed it.
Is interesting to me that, for me, BAND-MAID has made me more open to music like this. Not just by them, but by others as well. So when I hear them do something like this, or Wonderland, I expect it to be beautiful, but there is always something a bit more
@@RyanMear BM, Bandmaid, Bit more...Always. BM songs are like you ordered and expected a good meal and instead received the most delicious full course dinner full of interesting flavors that are unexpected yet compliment each other. I largely hate jazz yet bandmaid has actually gotten me to listen to some jazz. They are as Miku has said, a miracle.
It's a great song where misa openly flourishes and can't get lost in the mix.
The majesty of Band Maid, a blast of groove sing along and then the next song to drop after that - Rinne ! If you've got a complaint on this tune that's cool, I think Saiki makes the band statement to that on the last line 😂Akane make me your drum tech, I'll pay my own way 😃 Thanks Ryan , Right time for a beer (had to buy a bigger Esky/cooler 😂) and more Band Maid, peace and love Po 🤗🎼🎸🎤🥁🍻
If the next song to drop after that was actually Rinne, people might not have made such a big deal out of it. They probably still would though.
@@falagar4567 I hear you on that 👍cheers
Now, Ryan's reaction will start the re-evaluation of this song🤘🥰🤘
START OVER. It was the timing when the listeners were expecting an even more intense song after "World Domination"🥲
They had me at the piano intro. I also love Miku saying ‘duck’.
Always loved this song... this one was part of my random 8 or 10 songs I picked up to listen to Band-Maid more carefully. Seemed pretty different from the rest of the playlist but was something so addictive as well... the chorus right after "it's very simple" is something that got me right into it in the first listen. Love Saiki's tone. There is no Kanami solo in it but didn't felt it needed anyway. The only thing I DON'T like about "Start Over" is that I had to buy the "simple" version of the single and not that special box with photo cards and Zepp Live full concert and those extras CD's... the price at that time was already high up. Love this one.
Love the piano! Beautiful.. nice video story.. you paused right as the couple were ready to hug!…😆
I really like this song a lot too. Would love to see more of Kanami on piano sometime. Saying that I would love to see Akane on trombone, and more of Saiki on guitar too.
"That's just the proof of how good they are"
Ryan imo I think for the most part The US can't look past the language barrier. But to me The two coincide with their music which makes it so great.. Its what makes Band Maids songs so Awesome.. But Us Maidiacs know how great Band Maid is..Jmo
BTS (Bulletproof Boyscouts) is one of the best biggest modern examples of how an Asian band had to (yet still ongoing) tackle the xenophobia, isolationism, cultural bias & prejudice from such places as in the US. (in general). People may not fully understand & comprehend those difficulties until they find & fall in love with another band, such as Band-Maid, who are Asian as well, & find that the Maids also get the same treatment, although not as harsh as with BTS, simply because the Maids are not as huge as BTS. But just as with BTS's fandom (ARMY), so too have Band-Maid's fans (Maidiac, informally accepted) found that human language is not a barrier as long as we love the music, since music is considered the Universal language. One way to get the Maids more hype is to get them onto the TV screens & radio airwaves in the US. Asian language songs are highly difficult to spin on US radio. Spanish is ok because Spanish is considered a secondary language in the States. The Maids could also have their instrumental music as background scores in US commercials, without showing the gals. Tease people a little. Then someone watching the advertisement will say, "That music is cool, who is that?" Then perhaps, from that point on, a new Maidiac(s) will emerge after falling into that pigeon hole. Music festivals are also a great vehicle & venue to show off the Maids, something as big as Coachella & Woodstock.
The language barrier is probably the biggest hurdle for Band-Maid for rock fans. For the general populous, the biggest hurdle is that nobody cares about rock anymore and that's sad but true. The three genres the US cares most about are Pop, Country (or "Twang Pop" if we want to be more accurate with the genre), and Technically Hip Hop (but not the bumpin hip hop of the 90s and 00s). And then a distant fourth is Indie Rock, which, to me is fine, but it isn't actual rock. Everything else is just so far behind in popularity. There's like 15 million people in the US total that are willing to listen to new hard rock/metal music. That's like 5 percent, and honestly, that feels generous.
Band Maid's versatility off the charts. I can never prepare myself for what's to come. I don't have the proper words to explain how much I love them. They are a rare, beautiful gift to us all.
yeah! when i first listen to this song and SAIKI drops an f bomb at the end my jaw dropped to the floor and then i replayed it a few for times and went you go girl!
Glad you got to this one. I actually really like it! The intro and cool drumming at the start really sets the tone early.
Let’s face it - they can do no wrong… 🤟🏻😋
Ryan, this is a great song the only problem was the video storyline which most fans didn't like. Personally, I love this song for three main reasons; 1) Both Akane and Misa are just fabulous, 2) The vocales of both Miku and Saiki are fantastic, and 3) Kanami plays the piano throughout the song...it just adds a rare and beautiful touch to the music! Thanks for this review ..Peace and Respect from 🇨🇦
Why do so many people pay attention to the video and not the damn song? LOL
Reverse xenophobia.
@@RyanMear Probably because the video part in an MV is the only added value compared to the studio album version 😉. To be frank, I'm not a big fan of this kind of storyline without much interest and already massively used in many MVs and in many musical genres. Speaking of the video part, I prefer watching the musicians playing. Regarding the song, well, it is a great one. Of course, Band-Maid never released a bad song until now. Their musicianship and their skills in songwriting are insane. But for me this piece does not reach the level of Blooming, Warning, Manners, Daydreaming and some others in terms of music composition.
I agree, this isn't too the level of other songs.. but it is still great, this is the way!
I love how you're, what, 40? 50? songs into their catalog? And you still get caught off guard and have to laugh because what is there to say!
Love this song, jazzy, rocky, etc. Akane, Saiki. I think some of the hesitation about this song is the video, but then MISA.
Hey Ryan, big fan of your reactions, specially with BAND-MAID because they're my favorite band in the last... i don't know, 20 years?, yeah i'm "one of those B-M fans" too lol
They way the put so much creativity into every song is just awesome. Even with more radio-friendly pop songs like Start Over, wich i personally love because i'm not an usual "die-hard-rock" fan. In fact my second favorite band is SCANDAL, who are another all-girl band but completely the opposite to the Maids. Fun Fact: Akane and Haruna (SCANDAL's vocalist and rhythm guitar) are good friends and you can see them having fun together in older Akane's instagram posts. Anyway, what i was trying to say is no matter how "simple" a song from B-M could looks at first listen, they always add something extra to make it sounds fantastic. And come on... Kanami is playing the piano for fucks sake!, how the hell that's could not be freakin cool?
Btw, i think you're not reacted to 'FATE' yet. It would be a nice contrast to 'Start Over'
Jeez i'm talking to much... sorry lol. Greetings from Spain!
Ps: have you heard anything from Glim Spanky?, yes, another japanese band... they had a pretty damn cool 60's & 70's rock sound. One of my favorite songs from them is 'Breaking Down Blues', they had a live video on their TH-cam channel so check them out if you want
Man, sorry I did't get back on this sooner! Yes, I've listened to Glim Spanky....it is great! Good comment
@@RyanMear No problem!, thanks for reading my outrageously long comment and respond to it
Also glad you liked Glim Spanky!, they're really cool
They are the best band that has ever been, thats why.
This song reminded me of Kool & The Gang.
Thank you.
Bonus... a rare appearence of Kobato's (Po!) pearl-tile-front Zemaitis! 🥰
The first song after World Domination, first single in a long time showing a different and delicate face of the band. In its day Start Over caused enough comments from the die-hard fans to make Kanami sad. I think today, after UW and Sense, more than one of those inquisitors should be ashamed. Kanami ended up exhausted after doing WD, the stress even affected her health, so the girls decided to change their way of working by sharing greater decision and songwriting workloads so no one had to vomit due to the pressure of a schedule imposed by the business. The most important thing about this song, that always goes unnoticed, is that this song is the band's first joint work, the first time they began to share songwriting and arranging efforts and Saiki´s strategic direction. The beginning of the current songwriting dynamic, the unbeatable success that has seen them release 20 stratospheric hits in a row from December 2020 to December 2021. I love listening to Band Maid with your comments Ryan!. Thanks.
PD: Akane, drums hero...
I’ve always really enjoyed this one!
Basically this song is relatable music but to the next level.
the vocal fill in Prefab Sprout's "Appetite" style at 4.40 is awesome, Akane's jazzy style is incredible, a great song!!!!!!🤣🤣😎😎💖💖👍👍
Hey,Ryan! Thanks for all the videos.This song makes me feel nostalgic, it's about the 80's. BAND-MAID is a great band that shows us many sides of themselves.!
And of course, I love"screaming".🔥
One day., I'd like to see Ryan reacting to the song"you."‼️🤟
I thought I did...... didn't I?
@@RyanMear
I'm sorry, sir. My mistake.
Akane's birthday video was well-reacted to.‼️ As always, I look forward to your videos.👍
Anyone else want to sit in on one of their jam sessions? Looking up flights to Japan. They can do it all!
This has never been a favorite Band-Maid song for me, but I still liked it enough to listen to it occasionally. Your reaction helped me appreciate the song more. Sadly, I normally notice drums last, which is a tragedy with a drummer like Akane. Everyone gets a chuckle or other reaction to the Saiki F bomb. You should watch Alan and Eric react to it now that you've seen it. Look forward to the Gaijin stream tomorrow.
Give me 5 "Hail Akanes" and all is forgiven
@@RyanMear Hail Akane! Hail Akane! Hail Akane! Hail Akane! Hail Akane! *while watching the drum solo from Freedom live video*
Thank you for reacting to yet another great Band-Maid song. I would say that Start Over has been fairly well received by the fans, but it still need 42K more views to get past 2M views. Maidiacs, please visit BM's YT channel and play Start Over as much as you can to get it past 2M views.
The composition is great, MISA and Akane makes it groove. Saiki's vocals are stellar and Miku's chorus and harmonies blends so well it's almost disappears but it's clearly there, damn great song. The lyrics ends with the words: I don't give a fuck, be born again. I believe those words was aimed at their former record label, but don't quote me on that, I may be wrong.
Kanami said this song was underrated and very depressed, but I love it. Furthermore , When I listen to this song, I think it was a live concert at Shinkiba Studio Coast in Tokyo, but I remember that Kanami's piano performance was played on the backing track in the intro of "Daydreaming" and everyone was fascinated. I want to see her playing the piano more. By the way, Kanami is on Twitter on December 23, 2016, and although it is short, he plays "yolo" on the piano.
Nothing wrong with a poppy slower tune that breathes a bit.
Exactly…what’s not to like. Just because it’s not hard rock - it’s still rock and it’s got all the Band-Maid magic in terms of composition, instrumentation, great playing & singing, etc. So they took a flyer at having a J-Pop hit, so be it. It’s one song & there’s no indication that if they had a big J-Pop hit that they would ever abandon their core hard rock sound. And they more than proved that by the heaviness of Unseen World 🌎 Rock On 🤘🏼
More smooth Jazz rather than pop.
Hello! I like the lyrics of this song, "Bake monono yo u". Translated into English, it looks like a monster 👾
That's the song....🤣🤣
Saiki mind your language dear Queen 👑🤣
Thanks again Ryan for that😚 Great reaction..
Good song btw but the MV maybe kinda throw people's off...
Yup Band-Maid tend to add some "spice" to their songs arrangement
If they do some mainstream song covers.... Definitely different feels in it...more "spicy 🔥" like what they did to one of their cover Honey by MUCC
I can see a t-shirt here, Having a bad day? Start Over, because Saiki doesn't give a fuck. I'd buy that from you.
I don't give a phuck what people say, "I Love Band Maid!"
Maybe im weird sir, but i love this song n i've said it on discord, fb group, reddit etc. 😂
A simple requested karaoke song from akane to kanami (cmiiw) that burn a lot of fans, especially after this single they released the "conqueror" album, lol 🤣🤣🤣
But i dont mind, as long as we love the same band, right??? 😉😉😉
#bandmaid #takeovertheworld
Akane could pull off any beats effortlessly whether it's punk, metal or jazz...
Band Maid, making complicated things sound simple,
You gave me a new appreciation for this song
That's great to hear
MISA MISA MISA! i feel A-chan and MISA bring a real Jazz feel to this song LOVE IT
It's all in the bass, if you isolate it it sounds so smooth :)
great song thanks for your comments
My favourite ❤️🥰
I wonder if Saiki knew this song was going to get criticized by the fans and asked Miku/Kanami if she could add the idgaf at the end 🤣🤣🤣
Fairly pop sounding but still has a great composition with cool drum patterns you pointed out. “ I don’t give a fuck” is the cherry on top.
This really shows their diversity and the song is really excellent and well done. Totally pop and commercial but the twist at totally cracks me up. You're right about the bass and the drums. I really can't get involved in this style of music though. I think all these women could probably become studio musicians and survive just fine. Their musical sensibilities will carry them forward
Diversity. This is my favorite rock band at this time.
Thank you, I was waiting to see you react to Saiki's F-bomb 💣!
Kanami wasn't a musician who composed or played hard rock and heavy metal songs (in an uneasy word, "(fans) all like shred guitar, right?", A music magazine said. I remember).
When he was worried about the direction of the band's music, Kobato said that he listened to a song called Thrill and all the band members agreed that "this is the song that we can most understand (hard rock)" and decided the direction of the band. Said Saiki in an interview with the magazine.
Band-maid, who became a hard rock band, rushed to the album "domination", and as a result, "I came up with a way to pull the sound from stuffing it," Kanami answered in an interview with the magazine. (I think the songs "bubble" and "hide and seek" overlap at that time).
After that, Kanami seemed to be worried about "what kind of song should I make as a hard rock band", and the members were worried about Kanami who was worried and suggested "let's go back to the start line". I also answered in an interview that the song I made was "start over".
By the way, at that time, it was written in the blog "I want to talk about Band-Maid（band-maidを語りたい）" that Mr. Saiki declared at a local live venue that "We are a maid band pursuing hard rock".
In addition, it was stated in the magazine that Mr. Kanami advised Mr. Akutsu, who composed the thrill, "Make one guitar riff a day" and practiced it seriously.
from japan.
Since it is a machine translation, I think that there are some details and meanings that are not correctly conveyed, but please forgive me.
This is why I love Ryan, he could rip on the song and dwell on the negative but instead he highlights the positive and finds the beauty inside. He doesn't give a fuck, people okay?
Love this song.
I don't understand why anyone would dislike this song, it's yet another example of their incredible versatility apart from being a great song. This and Anemone are my favourites for Akane's drumming, yes she can beat the heck out of the kit but when she grooves like this there is no one better and of course a perfect fit for the song.
Yeah, I geeked out over Akane in Anemone too LOL
has a 90's early 2000's"Alternative Rock" feel to it, this band has a-lot of talented diversity
Ryan!
It is raining and cold and I am waiting for the Dragon and cooking for her (Potato and Oyster Gratin) and I need a band Maid and a reaction of yours to prepare myself for the eventual smoldering by the local Dragon! Am I hen-pecked husband? Definitely! LOL
Great reaction from the guts!
There will always be crybabies who complain that their loved bands change tack from time to time (Bob Dylan in particular suffered from that, but I already told you!)!
The Fornicate Under Consent of the King word was a beauty, was it not?
And it probably shocked nobody!
IT like their "shut up!" in Rinne, too! LOL
The right word, the right amount, the right time!
They might have made this song karaoke-friendly but it will be a challenge for amateur singers! LOL
Nothing to add to your comments, though!
Looking forward to your next reaction, Band Maid or not!
Now, where did I put that bottle of sake? Misery me!
Best regards,
Robert-Gilles
You always make me want sake.....I may have to find some....
@@RyanMear As good as wine, bu with a little more alcohol!
Misa loves it!!!
When you come to Japan I will introduce you to it!😁
@@RyanMear if you have a decent store nearby they should carry it or can order it.
Saiki and Miku are Japanese versions of Ann and Nancy Wilson :)
Thanks Ryan!
And live that song is even better (even if, sadly, the piano was a backing track - I'd love to see Kanami playing keys on stage for a part of a song or two). For me, the main problem with the MV is the cheezy couple - I think Start Over was used for a drama and those images comes from it. And then there was the angst that some fans felt about "Band-Maid becoming soft pop" - the band's answer was Rinne 😅 .
I'm amazed at how much people base liking a song or not on the video......I barely remember the video, I was listening to the song!
Start over wasn't used for a drama, that's just the video they made.
Great job on the onset cover
Thank you!
Now that you heard it you should watch Dicodec's reaction to this song, it's hilarious. 😂 🤯
I also do not understand why this song is partly so put down. Yes, it may not have the punch-in-the-face factor, but as you say, the many details distinguish it from the infinite number of other songs from the category. The rhythm section is carrying the song perfectly, I agree, Kanami on guitar on the other hand seems very unchallenged, something you're just not used to hearing from her. But we see and hear her on piano instead. And for that reason alone, and Saiki's very meaningful last words, I like this song a lot. :)

Not everything has to be complicated all the time, right?! The pocket that Akane and MISA find in this song....
@@RyanMear 💯%. Sometimes less is indeed more and can still be special.
Next recommend "I can't live without you"!
The thing I don't understand about this song is how they didn't expect negative reactions when releasing it as a single after World Domination, which was pretty much a metal album.
Hey ryan how about a tshirt that says shut up! Akane's talking!🤘👍😉❤😃😃
Apparently they are selling duck
I think the issues Maidiacs has with this song is that it sounded too much like American idol pop and Maidiacs didn't listen to BAND-MAID because they like American idol pop. It's like forcing a "enter the sandman" guy to listen to "shake it off".
In 2024, I'm wondering if Saiki can play this piano intro...
