What a great reaction, Petra! I loved it! As usual, you are very good at this! :) It's great to see older guys in their late fifties still rocking away, haha! Ningen Isu translates as "The Human Chair", which is a weird Japanese thriller story from 1925. As you can probably tell by listening, their main influence is Black Sabbath, and the lead guitar player even uses the same guitar (a a Gibson SG) as Black Sabbath's lead guitar player Tony iommi. This song starts out with him praying to various deities for himself, but he realizes by the end of the song that he should be praying for blessings for everyone.
The tranquil Ancient east meets chaotic modern metal west and voila! Something very uniquely special happens. Compliments of the fabulous icon of Sweden, Petra Viklund. Thanks for the grand reaction, my dear, and a hearty welcome back.
Nice to know we’re not the only place still suffering with the weather. 🇨🇦 great band though eh. Love that deep classic heavy metal with the sabbath like bass.
So, a first for both of us. I was searching for Ningen Isu's new song (Listening to them off and on since the early '90s) and I found you. Good to meet ya! Complete joy on this end watching/listening to this with you. Like having a friend in the room. Kenichi (bass) is monumental in their songs, always has been. Just stop and think that everything that is behind the lead guitar is him and only him. Thank you!
Well, going by the lyrics, a point was made that a lot gets lost in translation. There were quite a few points I was like, "Huh?" Lol. Really good though.
Heartless scat - NINGEN ISU BAND If you, Holy Angels, do exist in this universe Will you bless me on the cheeks? With my painful effort never paid off I've just been standing in the shadow Will the day come someday when I can fly high in the sky? Will the day come when I can see the Sun? Tell me, Holy Angels Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa If you, Divine Goddess, are staying hidden somewhere Why don't you smile at me on my forehead? I've never tasted the nectar of victory I’ve never succeeded in love Will the day come when I can get intoxicated by the victory? Will the day come when I can embrace love? Tell me, Divine Goddess Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa Countless stars are twinkling in the sky Every one of us is under them With a thousand wishes in each heart Lululu Lululu If you, Lord Buddha, really exist in some place Please have mercy on me, too Having nothing precious in my possession Desolated Isolated I've been living my life with a series of failures Will the day come when I can totally be satisfied? Will the day come when my dreams come true? Tell me, Lord Buddha Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa Shabadabadia Shabadabadia Babababa Shine a light on my life Shine a light on my future Shine a light on every creature Shine a light on tomorrow for all.
I wish there was a way to give extra credit to your reaction to this song, you have been one of the few who actually read the lyrics and thought about them. Most reactions I have seen are much more shallow.
Thank you! Love your reaction!
The lyrics of this song is a prayer.
Ningen Isu is fantastic!
Greetings from Japan 👍
Brutality and style combined in a great Trio!
Thanks young lady!
I am happy to see you again. I'm just as happy that you're here again. I missed you a little. The selection of your songs is always something special.

Hi Petra so really good of you to do a reaction today this was intense, trace like a new style for me to learn. Thank you.
Thank You Petra for another Reaction Video! 🥰
ありがとう！
For next reaction, you should try on Toshishun and Namahage, heavy music and heavy riff.

Äntlignen Ningen Isu! Bildades 1987 och släppt nästan 30 album, ett helt fantastiskt band.

Not bad reaction for a rookie...😁
After Ningen Isu you need to check out the best female metal band today, Lovebites. You will be impressed!

If you, Holy Angels, do exist in this universe
Will you bless me on the cheeks?
With my painful effort never paid off
I've just been standing in the shadow
Will the day come someday when I can fly high in the sky?
Will the day come when I can see the Sun?
Tell me, Holy Angels
Shabadabadia

If you, Divine Goddess, are staying hidden somewhere
Why don't you smile at me on my forehead?
I've never tasted the nectar of victory
I’ve never succeeded in love
Will the day come when I can get intoxicated by the victory?
Will the day come when I can embrace love?
Tell me, Divine Goddess
Shabadabadia

Countless stars are twinkling in the sky
Every one of us is under them
With a thousand wishes in each heart
Lululu Lululu
If you, Lord Buddha, really exist in some place
Please have mercy on me, too
Having nothing precious in my possession
Desolated
Isolated
I've been living my life with a series of failures
Will the day come when I can totally be satisfied?
Will the day come when my dreams come true?
Tell me, Lord Buddha
Shabadabadia
Shabadabadia
Babababa
Shabadabadia

Shine a light on my life
Shine a light on my future
Shine a light on every creature
Shine a light on tomorrow for all.

It's too long for my preference. Otherwise, I like the song but not necessarily the video.
