If you ask me, Babymetal are the best thing that happened to Metal in the last years. Lots of people are getting introduced to Metal, while old metalheads like myself get rejuvenated and appreciate the music again. This song is special, it is their love letter to their fans, and the final part of a two song epic. Thanks for reacting!
I don't think I've ever seen _The One_ as anyone's first BabyMetal reaction before. Well, it's the fan anthem/love letter to the fans, so that's an interesting place to start. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to The One. :)
This is an epic anthemic show closer, dedicated to the fan base. It is the only slow BABYMETAL song and probably it's least metal. Check out Road of Resistance, Karate, or Gimme Chocolate to move into the middle of the BABYMETAL spectrum. Each song is unique and covers different metal subgenres and different musical mashups. Plus they usually dance, something you don't see much in metal.
Yeah, they are extremely popular in Japan and they have toured in the U.S. with many different bands. They started out at ages 11,11 and 12 until present day. They mix what is called J-pop with metal and add techno into their songs as well. Very diverse.
To clarify, that's when BabyMetal started, and Yui and Moa were still fairly new to the biz, but Su had already been gracing stages with her presence for a while. I'm surprised that Su wasn't born onstage and handed a microphone. :)
Yeah, they're singing in mostly Japanese. They do have a full English version of this song. It's really good. This is probably my favorite Babymetal song. Because of the maturity. They get shit on a lot by the metal community. Mostly elitists. Even though they have toured with Slayer and performed with Rob Halford. I enjoy their energy, and stage presence. They command the stage and the audience like none other. And their backing music, the "Kami" band are talented as hell. You should check out some of their heavier stuff. Road Of Resistance or Karate.
ELECTRIC REACTIONS I'm guessing I got to watch it before it was taken down. A lot of the reaction videos for them have to be altered in some way or another.
Nice reaction dude! I'll be watching more! Syncopation is awesome and Tales of the Destinies. And let's not forget Black BabyMetal, which is just the 2 other girls Moa and Yui who also sing; Onedari Daisakusen, GJ!, and Sis. Anger (the heaviest). Subbed up!
And all during the same show! they go back and forth from 3 to Su-Metal solos to Moa/Yui (MoiMoi we call the pair!) and back to all 3 again. This gives everybody a little break to rest due to the amount of energy they expend during the show. Versatile little buggers aren't they? Every form of metal used in their songs and sometimes several forms in one. From hard grind to surf punk, to power metal all in the same tune. Dude, I've bangin' near 40 years and these kids are a breath of fresh air! Live shows are freakin awesome as you saw in The One. The fans are highly motivated and dedicated.
Damn what a way to start off the year lol. This is a huge loss for Babymetal. I mean they still have Takayoshi who plays in Marty Friedman's band but this is a devastating loss. Watching Fujioka play for me was a religious experience. He was very respected in Japan. Not two mention authored several books on guitar. He was a featured instructor at my music College I attended back in the day as well. A few years back I got to attend a jam session. Which was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Check out ESP Guitars: ESP Snapper-7 Fujioka Custom demonstration. The guy could play & it such a tragic loss. R.I.P. Fujioka. 😢 🔥🎸🔥
Metal came with varieties influenced by cultures eg. Folkmetal, symphonic metal, classic metal, rock n roll..etc. You name it metal got it. And Japan introduced Kawaii Metal via Baby Metal needs no exception. Just embrace the Kawai Metal with an open heart because Metal is for all afterall..
Some random facts about Babymetal to give you some ideas of how Babymetal has been doing: they started in 2010. They got some fame in Japan, but some of their MVs got posted on metal news websites and they kind of went viral in the west. They did, 3 world tours before the girls were adults, the second album broke records in the US and UK. In the US it was the highest charting Japanese album in over 50 years at #38 and in the UK highest ever at #15 and in Australia it was #7. Yes, their 'gimmick', for lack of a better word ?, is little Japanese girls/young women and metal, but one of their other interesting things about them is that the songs are from different metal sub-genres. So they have very diverse songs and they have the best metal musicians from Japan they could find that can play all that live. In the UK they had their first arena show outside of Japan, at Wembley Arena (the first Japanese band to play there/such a large venue in Japan) the day after the album release. This year they didn't do much of their own touring but did a whole bunch of openers for other bands like Red Hot Chili Peppers and Korn (US) and Metallica (Korea) and Guns N Roses (Japan). And their own shows except for one were in Japan. The show did in the US had their first opener ever (by Japanese child labor laws they were never allowed to play late, so that is one reason to not have an opener). It was non other than Hellyeah, the band of Vinnie Paul of formally Pantera !
I would love it but I don't know they are big enough (they don't have a single no. 1 hit or album in Japan). I suspect you are more likely to see Arashi and AKB48, who have dominated the charts for years - other likely groups are World Order, at least one Vocaloid (the animated pop stars), Ayumi and the top selling Japanese group of all time Bz (over 100 million records sold) - but Babymetal would be great
Babymetal is (are?) the Real Deal! I’m in my 70s and have been around the musical block; I’m from South Carolina, the Deep South of the US, and I remember quite vividly Elvis during the Sun years and Elvis was a punch in the gut ... Link Wray was another one ... and that’s been my criteria through the years: if it hits me in the gut, I’m all in, baby! I remember Elvis’ first appearance on national TV, and it was OMG ... same thing with the Beatles ... I go by my gut. Babymetal destroyed the old paradigm of what metal is (and can be); they are unique, and to my way of thinking, a work of art. Once you fall into the rabbit-hole, it’s all over, dude, you’re hooked.
The One is one of their slower songs. I recommend Road of Resistance Live next. MUCH faster. th-cam.com/video/pT5Sgi_hm4w/w-d-xo.html The three girls names are Suzuka Nakamoto 19 (Su-Metal, lead singer), Yui Mizuno 18(Yuimetal, scream & dance on the left), and Moa Kikuchi 18 (Moametal, scream & dance on the right). They are world famous, not just in Japan. They started performing at very young ages (Su was only 5yo). BABYMETAL formed as an idol group originally in 2010 when the girls were 11, 11, and 13. In 2013, the main singer became to old for the idol group and had to "graduate" out of the group. BUT, their manager/creator of the group (Key Kobayashi aka Koba-Metal) saw its' huge potential and decided to turn the group into a real band to keep the original members together forever. That's also the year they gained new members of the band called the Kami Band (God Band). Made up of some of the best musicians in the world (which takes there live shows into the realm of legend). BABYMETAL became really popular, and by the end of 2014 were a worldwide phenomenon. Their popularity is still growing and shows no sign of stopping. Multiple world tours and have sold out arenas (even played live on US national television on the Colbert Late Show in 2016). We're all waiting to see what comes next in 2018 and the HYPE is real. They've toured all over the world, have won countless music awards all over the world (Metal Hammer Magazine even named their debut self-titled album "Best Metal Album of the 21st Century"), and have opened for The Red Hot Chili Peppers, Lady GaGa, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Korn, Stone Sour, and have shared the stage with Rob Halford of Judas Priest, and Dragonforce. All have signed off and credited BABYMETAL as being a legit/talented band.
_The One_ is also properly accompanied by _Tales of the Destinies._ If any credentials are needed for its legitimacy, this should suffice: twitter.com/MikePortnoy/status/814239777998458880 :D
Nice reaction video! This is one of my favourite Babymetal songs, love the music. You should react to their song "Death" its mostly instrumental but would have to be the best song where the music really shines!
If by any chance you gonna try other songs, you will see that they are never what you will expect from them, one of the most diverse band and one of the best show around. Pretty unique on the metal scene. Beginning with THE ONE is not common, and prepare to a lot of surprise for your next Babymetal experiences! take my like and my sub, hoping more BM from you!
With all the other comments you obviously will see they have a big fan base and lots of songs. This song is more of a ballad and is dedicated to the fans. Babymetal is backed by a big label so many of their shows (especially in Japan) have a massive stage production. The music can range from sort of urban (Onedari Daisuke) to dance/ddr (Iine) to pop (too many to mention) to just plain fun (Gimme Chocolate, Catch Me If You Can) to beautiful ballad (No Rain, No Rainbow) to stirring songs (Rondo of Nightmare, Karate). Fans will not like that I left out songs like Megitsune and a bunch more. But that's exactly what makes Babymetal so awesome, every song appeals to different people strongly because every song is different and new. This is a new thing, the fusion of metal and dance and multiple genres. It's rather brilliant.
Sad news today ,,,Babymetal Guitarist Mikio Fujioka has passed away. According to Fujioka’s wife, the musician fell from an observation deck on December 30 and later passed away on January 5. His Twitter account, believed to be in use by his wife, said his two daughters had been by his side in his final hours.
Dude, you spoke so little, but your face said everything. I think that I had the same facial expressions as I first watched a BabyMetal video. At around 5:00 the smile that came upon your face as you realized you liked what you were hearing... priceless. I knew, seeing the guitars on the wall behind you that you were gonna enjoy "The One." As so many have already said, please react to "Road of Resistance" next. Bad ass... This link never gets flagged for copyright by Amuse, so you can freely react to it. Best part- this is what they sound like live at a festival. Prepare to be amazed... th-cam.com/video/pT5Sgi_hm4w/w-d-xo.html
Hello, I am a large big fan of BABYMETAL, of course. You seem to like it. When I listen to "THE ONE" why I am seeing an onion ninja. This MV is a state at the Yokohama Arena in Japan in 2015. LIVE is wonderful anywhere in BABYMETAL anytime. I won the 2017 World BEST LIVE BAND Award. I hope the Blu - ray of "Baptismal Rite REGEND - s -" that was held on December 2 and 3, 2017, will be released soon. I went to see on the 2nd. All the sensory organs were shaken by shock, emotion, tears, sadness and hope.Come and I really want you to visit LIVE.
I am sorry, it's embarrassing, but "tears" runs down while I do not know. Tears will come out when you wear onions. I would like to ask deep details about BABY METAL. BABYMETAL has a long history unexpectedly. Last year, SU 20 years old, Yui-chan and MOA-chan 18 years old and young, so it's surprising. LIVE images are out many around 2013, so please watch the images of the past.
METAL YOSHI I see, me to my friend they are awesome. Especially that there so young. They really are great performers live. I appreciate you telling me. Don’t be embarrassed, as that shows great emotion through music. 👍
One of the few bands that are better live than the recorded CDs; in live performances they are a force of nature: check out “Road of Resistance Live in Japan” ... their back-up band is awesome, as well (The Kami Band).
So, Babymetal are a part of alternative idol (which is like a genre only known in japan, when young girls sing on a rock-metal (or even heavier) base, Babymetal actually are the only band known internationally and to be honest, lately it's the one band from japan that will get u a lot of views xD Try to react to Karate, Megitsune and Road of Resistance :D
Actually, they're not part of Sakura Gakuin anymore. All of the girls have graduated and left SG. They've grown past that and are an entity onto themselves now.
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Korn, Stone Sour, Rob Halford in a Duet of Painkiller and Breaking the Law and opening for Judas Priest. Babymetal allowed them to close for Babymetal, so sweet of the young ladies …
⚡ 💀 💕 / ▲ They're becoming better known. There are mainstream Idol groups like Momoiro Clover Z that are ridiculously popular in Japan. They are not at that level yet, but the same is true of most flavors of metal in the USA compared to pop acts. BABYMETAL did sellout Tokyo Dome in September 2016 two nights in a row with 55,000 people per night. 2017 has been a little slow as the two youngest members are still in school, graduating at the end of March 2018.
Little cool fact. Some western fans learned Japanese to sing along with them during live shows so in return The girls started learning English. Yes they learn The language of foreign cause those fans learned theirs.
Please check out Karate, Road of Resistance and Catch me if you can! I'm sure you'll like those ;) Kami band that plays instruments behind Babymetal is outstanding... Looking forward to your reactions!
Glad to see you finally got a BABYMETAL video up on your channel. This is normally one of their closing songs at a concert which is also why it's much slower. The One is also the name of their fan club. ...did you hopefully manage to read my wall of text in the comment I posted on the MtH video? Sorry about the lack of links in that one. Just didn't feel like hunting the stuff down at the time. Here's a link of all the songs I suggest in the my wall of text comment: X Japan _Kurenai_ - th-cam.com/video/Nr5JewBYkmo/w-d-xo.html (Very low quality, from 1987 iirc.)

I would've finished this comment earlier but I started listening to the music.🦊Anyway, that should keep you busy for a bit!
Everytime I see this video I think it's a pity they don't used the original live audio but the studio recording instead. They are big in the metal sector in Japan. But that's even more like a niche there, than in Europe or America. But you have to know, they drew the biggest audience at the biggest festival Japan had this year (#SummerSonic). They outclassed even the Foo Fighters. And most shocking for the most people who don't know them already: They are in bussiness since 2010! Let me give you a suggenstion for your next BNABYMETAL reactions. They are best experienced live, so a live performance would be fitting. So maybe you react to "Ijime, Dame Zettai" live at Sonisphere 2014 (th-cam.com/video/Ro-_cbfdrYE/w-d-xo.html). This was their international breakthrough. But they have also a few good produced music videos. You could react to "Megitsune" (th-cam.com/video/cK3NMZAUKGw/w-d-xo.html).
check out "akatuski" "rondo of nightmare" "syncopation" "karate" "megitsune" "road of resistance"... and LIVE, always live!; their live performance are a thousand times better than the studio albums or the music videos. they are better live!.
this should be the theme of Tokyo Olympic Games 2020 awesome
Yes definitely my friend
Should also be the theme when Bill Gates finally releases the Mark of the Beast vaccines. The pyramid/triangle of NWO is complete.
If you ask me, Babymetal are the best thing that happened to Metal in the last years. Lots of people are getting introduced to Metal, while old metalheads like myself get rejuvenated and appreciate the music again. This song is special, it is their love letter to their fans, and the final part of a two song epic. Thanks for reacting!
+Spiral Warrior definitely agree with you. I have found a new love with metal in just my reactions.
cant agree more,from another old metalhead.
Yep.
I don't think I've ever seen _The One_ as anyone's first BabyMetal reaction before. Well, it's the fan anthem/love letter to the fans, so that's an interesting place to start. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Welcome to The One. :)
0okamino that’s awesome
"The One" is one of my favourite songs of theirs, so I'm glad. lol
Oh ! It's rare to see people react for the first time to BABYMETAL by The One. Hope you will check more of her.
Mantaius I will for sure
+Mantaius Don't you mean them? 😛
SolitudeDragon lol definitely
I see what you did there. ;)
Popular for a metal band in the US, UK, and Japan. Top 10 Billboard world album this year even though they didn't come out with a new album.
Singulitarian that’s unreal
This is an epic anthemic show closer, dedicated to the fan base. It is the only slow BABYMETAL song and probably it's least metal. Check out Road of Resistance, Karate, or Gimme Chocolate to move into the middle of the BABYMETAL spectrum. Each song is unique and covers different metal subgenres and different musical mashups. Plus they usually dance, something you don't see much in metal.
+Singulitarian thank you
Nice that you like the song. I discovered them and became a huge fan this year. You actually picked their softest song. Every other track is heavy.
+JD Cantu really lol. Thank you
But then this is their BEST song, so he made a good decision.
Babymetal Ijime, Dame Zettai, LIVE at Sonisphere!!!
+216trixie thank you:)
No shame here in saying I'm a babymetal fan lol those girls can sing but the instrumentals are always on point!
Shawn Patterson agreed brother. I thought they were awesome
The girls with relaxing voice, heavy metal background, beautiful backdrop, The music! the sound of it! Wtf i really love them..!
I’m impressed with them too.
Yeah, they are extremely popular in Japan and they have toured in the U.S. with many different bands. They started out at ages 11,11 and 12 until present day. They mix what is called J-pop with metal and add techno into their songs as well. Very diverse.
+John Bonney that’s awesome thanks
To clarify, that's when BabyMetal started, and Yui and Moa were still fairly new to the biz, but Su had already been gracing stages with her presence for a while. I'm surprised that Su wasn't born onstage and handed a microphone. :)

Mick Fitzmaurice it’s really good. I’m surprised you got this reaction brother. As I got a copyright message telling me it’s not available in the USA
+Mick Fitzmaurice cheers brother will do
ELECTRIC REACTIONS I'm guessing I got to watch it before it was taken down. A lot of the reaction videos for them have to be altered in some way or another.
Mick Fitzmaurice cool. Bout to upload something a bit different. Hope it goes well
ELECTRIC REACTIONS Hahaha! Awesome! You know I'll be watching!
Wow nice reaction👊🏽 Yeah there is something about this Band that hits deep..
Nice reaction dude! I'll be watching more! Syncopation is awesome and Tales of the Destinies. And let's not forget Black BabyMetal, which is just the 2 other girls Moa and Yui who also sing; Onedari Daisakusen, GJ!, and Sis. Anger (the heaviest). Subbed up!
Holy shit really? So there’s a side project to baby metal? Thanks heaps my friend
And all during the same show! they go back and forth from 3 to Su-Metal solos to Moa/Yui (MoiMoi we call the pair!) and back to all 3 again. This gives everybody a little break to rest due to the amount of energy they expend during the show. Versatile little buggers aren't they?

First BABYMETAL reaction too "The One." Not where most get started. I'm 60 years old and not much into ballads but this is EPIC!
Damn what a way to start off the year lol. This is a huge loss for Babymetal. I mean they still have Takayoshi who plays in Marty Friedman's band but this is a devastating loss.
Watching Fujioka play for me was a religious experience. He was very respected in Japan. Not two mention authored several books on guitar.
He was a featured instructor at my music College I attended back in the day as well. A few years back I got to attend a jam session.
Which was one of the greatest experiences of my life. Check out ESP Guitars: ESP Snapper-7 Fujioka Custom demonstration. The guy could play & it such a tragic loss. R.I.P. Fujioka. 😢 🔥🎸🔥

+autohmae wow that’s awesome my friend thanks for the insight
I'd like to see BABYMETL playing "THE ONE" at the opening ceremony of 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
I would love it but I don't know they are big enough (they don't have a single no. 1 hit or album in Japan).

:D
They also been on stage with Chthonic
Babymetal doesn't need those other bands approval. I like them better than all of those other bands.
Nice reaction video! This is one of my favourite Babymetal songs, love the music. You should react to their song "Death" its mostly instrumental but would have to be the best song where the music really shines!

Very sad,, one of the nicest guys in the world,,,always showed up to hang out with the fan club. and get on stage and play guitar with them

LIVE is wonderful anywhere in BABYMETAL anytime. I won the 2017 World BEST LIVE BAND Award. I hope the Blu - ray of "Baptismal Rite REGEND - s -" that was held on December 2 and 3, 2017, will be released soon. I went to see on the 2nd. All the sensory organs were shaken by shock, emotion, tears, sadness and hope.Come and I really want you to visit LIVE.
METAL YOSHI thank you my friend. Although I’m not to sure what an onion ninja is lol
I am sorry, it's embarrassing, but "tears" runs down while I do not know. Tears will come out when you wear onions. I would like to ask deep details about BABY METAL. BABYMETAL has a long history unexpectedly. Last year, SU 20 years old, Yui-chan and MOA-chan 18 years old and young, so it's surprising. LIVE images are out many around 2013, so please watch the images of the past.
METAL YOSHI I see, me to my friend they are awesome. Especially that there so young. They really are great performers live. I appreciate you telling me. Don’t be embarrassed, as that shows great emotion through music. 👍
this one is one of their best songs
Cool t-shirt
One of the few bands that are better live than the recorded CDs; in live performances they are a force of nature: check out “Road of Resistance Live in Japan” ... their back-up band is awesome, as well (The Kami Band).
Japanese dream theater? Love it
So, Babymetal are a part of alternative idol (which is like a genre only known in japan, when young girls sing on a rock-metal (or even heavier) base,
Babymetal actually are the only band known internationally and to be honest, lately it's the one band from japan that will get u a lot of views xD
Try to react to Karate, Megitsune and Road of Resistance :D
+Katarina No Kami thank you as always. Much appreciated
Actually, they're not part of Sakura Gakuin anymore. All of the girls have graduated and left SG. They've grown past that and are an entity onto themselves now.
it's still part of the alternative idol genre tho
Try looking up Death Rabbits. Another cute metal group but they are not as big as Baby Metal.
+Katarina No Kami: To the Japanese audience perhaps, not so much the rest of the world.
Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Guns N Roses, Korn, Stone Sour, Rob Halford in a Duet of Painkiller and Breaking the Law and opening for Judas Priest. Babymetal allowed them to close for Babymetal, so sweet of the young ladies …

They're becoming better known.
There are mainstream Idol groups like Momoiro Clover Z that are ridiculously popular in Japan.
They are not at that level yet, but the same is true of most flavors of metal in the USA compared to pop acts.
BABYMETAL did sellout Tokyo Dome in September 2016 two nights in a row with 55,000 people per night.
2017 has been a little slow as the two youngest members are still in school, graduating at the end of March 2018.
I'm pretty sure I had the exact same expressions on my face when I watched it
BABYMETAL RULES!!!! We are BABYMETAL!!!!! We Love BABYMETAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Try road of resistance live you will be amazed. Dave from the UK. Nice vid
Little cool fact. Some western fans learned Japanese to sing along with them during live shows so in return The girls started learning English. Yes they learn The language of foreign cause those fans learned theirs.
彼の表情が全てを物語っている。
the oneのリアクションならこれが一番好き。
Please check out Karate, Road of Resistance and Catch me if you can! I'm sure you'll like those ;) Kami band that plays instruments behind Babymetal is outstanding... Looking forward to your reactions!
+Ivan Teslenko thank buddy
Checkout iine or megitsume by them megitsume has a sick breakdown
Oh BTW, BABYMETAL is one word. Might want to correct that in the video title so more people can find it.
+MetalNcarnet thanks buddy lol
Yeah, search can be picky about that. Not sure why it does it to that degree.
Are they big in Japan? They are big all over the world. Michigan here.
RIP - Little Guitar Kami
Glad to see you finally got a BABYMETAL video up on your channel. This is normally one of their closing songs at a concert which is also why it's much slower. The One is also the name of their fan club.
...did you hopefully manage to read my wall of text in the comment I posted on the MtH video? Sorry about the lack of links in that one. Just didn't feel like hunting the stuff down at the time. Here's a link of all the songs I suggest in the my wall of text comment:

I'm sure you've found the BABYMETAL Official Channel by now but I'll link 'em anyway.

I would've finished this comment earlier but I started listening to the music.🦊Anyway, that should keep you busy for a bit!
SolitudeDragon thank you so much
sounds like dream theater with out james labrie on it... haha
🤟🤟🤟💥💥💥
Everytime I see this video I think it's a pity they don't used the original live audio but the studio recording instead.
They are big in the metal sector in Japan. But that's even more like a niche there, than in Europe or America. But you have to know, they drew the biggest audience at the biggest festival Japan had this year (#SummerSonic). They outclassed even the Foo Fighters. And most shocking for the most people who don't know them already: They are in bussiness since 2010!
Let me give you a suggenstion for your next BNABYMETAL reactions. They are best experienced live, so a live performance would be fitting. So maybe you react to "Ijime, Dame Zettai" live at Sonisphere 2014 (th-cam.com/video/Ro-_cbfdrYE/w-d-xo.html). This was their international breakthrough.
But they have also a few good produced music videos. You could react to "Megitsune" (th-cam.com/video/cK3NMZAUKGw/w-d-xo.html).
+Steffen Jachnow thank you my friend
My pleasure!
Do a reaction to Rings Of Saturn
Olha a cara do maluco kkkkk
Hey what's the intro song is it slayer
A band called king parrot my dude
Good job! Please react to Japanese metalcore idol group *Broken By The Scream* ! 😊
Thank you very much
You want to hear heavier babymetal check out karate or megitsune
ricky vernon Rondo of nightmare with god's of mischief it's much heavier then those two songs put together lol.
check out "akatuski" "rondo of nightmare" "syncopation" "karate" "megitsune" "road of resistance"... and LIVE, always live!; their live performance are a thousand times better than the studio albums or the music videos. they are better live!.
Pelger HaHa I’ll check it out, thanks
aldious/we are/track please,all girl metal from japan.
Dream Theater and cute kids...
Can you react to roselia band please?
It shouldn't work....but it does
if you know the meaning of the lyric or watch it with translate, you will get the message. and maybe your reactions will be different.
Are they a big band? ummm...when any musician is suspended in a neon triangle for the duration of the song, they're a big band.
Lol yeah guess your right.
This song is not a good one to check what Babymetal is about. You should check songs like Gimme Chocolate, Karate or Road of Resistance.
+Pulsifer thank you
This is not ur proudest moment on this Chanel 😜🤘
Hahahahaha no it’s not
Isso nao e rock nao
the worst intro to BabyMetal I love Babyetal and almost fell asleep watching
Please try another BabyMetal song
