Just wanted to once again thank all you awesome people who keep sending me these clips and videos. Wouldn't be able to do this without ya. You're the real champs.
Dude... if,you enjoyed this, listen to “Real Existence” Live
We all love Miku!
Oh, and please check out Trident.
Hope you are doing well. Have you heard a Filipino singer named Morissette Amon. Just started listening to her a few days ago. Has to be the best pop singer I have heard in quite some time. There are a group of cover songs recorded on a mobile bus for a radio show (Wish 107.5) that people have been reacting too; Never Enough, Rise Up, Secret Love Song, Akin Ka Na Lang (original composition). Also there is a cover of Fly Like a Bird out there too. Check it out.
@@cyberpotato63 ive seen people post reactions but never watched
Quote of the day, "Why not be awesome for 3 seconds before continuing to be awesome".
The crowd just went fucking nuts when they started playing this in Dallas last year. Such a good song.
And it was the 2nd to last song too! This and Domination were the highlights of the night, the crowd was alive.
Just checking in from the future to let you know that the crowd in NY went fucking nuts when they played it this year. :)
Only Band-Maid could have people headbanging to the words "Don't dilly-dally..."
Best line in a hard rock song right up there with "Ta Ta for now" (YOLO)
One of the very greatest rock songs that has ever existed. Do you realize how hard this would be to play? So intricate and a shitload of different parts. The musicianship of all of them has to be absolutely extraordinary in order to pull this off live. Remarkable.
Notice how when Kobato-san whispers, she slyly does it over her shoulder?
I feel manipulated. And I'm ok with that.
What is she saying?
@@P3wP3wPanda 'Make up your mind'.... and of course Saiki ends with 'Don't dilly dally'
@@makochan722 Oh cool. Thanks
she's a fan of Tokyo Jihen.. that over the shoulder sideways stance i'd say is a hallmark of Shiina Ringo
@@borntraitor289 Oooh, that totally makes sense. Who was it that said being an artist is all about knowing what other artists to borrow from?
You are one of very few reactors with over 20k subs that are honest and sticking with bands that YOU really enjoy! It´s not about the clicks, views, likes or anything, i mean that´s important too, but other bands generate more clicks than Band-Maid, but you are always coming back to these fantastic ladies! Thank you for that, i am really dissapointed from other reactors because of that issue! I hope you will get well soon, your throat was really messed up. Best wishes from Germany, keep it up :)
P.S.: That´s the reason you still earned my subscription, all the others i cancelled it, even if you are not reacting to them or things i don´t like...
This is one of the only reaction channels I'm subbed to for Band Maid reactions. Consistent both in updates(relatively speaking of course lol) as well as quality of content.
I agree. Other reactors are either overreacting, purists, too bland, , or just for the fad or for patreon requests, or bias to their favorite genres. This channel and Chase (some from Dicodec) are the only reactors who focused on the details in both their performance ability and songwriting.
@@kairukafuka6022 I didn´t want to mention it, but Chase is one of those reactors... He is really accuared and i learned a lot about music, but it´s only Nightwish and other stuff since months and he said "quote": Band-Maid is important to the music on it´s own, so why he is not reacting to them anymore? I don´t get it, for me it´s just for the views, so i don´t support him anymore. I was on his and Tank´s Discord and tried to let them do Band-Maid stuff for some weeks and no reaction, so for me it´s not worth it anymore to spend my time there.
@@Slippy6582 Yeah, I noticed. Chase's reactions on BAND-MAID is getting shallower every video. Either he has ran out of curiosity on other their songs, now that he has predicted the band's usual arrangement, or It's probably he's already resorted to listen the rest of BAND-MAID's stuff like their full albums. As for Tank, he's probably less interested in Japanese music that BAND-MAID's videos are at their low priority and he's lost interest after he reacted on FREEDOM, which is not metal.
So right about Saiki! Sometimes she seems to get over shadowed by the musical onslaught, but she is carrying the melody virtually all the time with her voice ( inflections, phrasing). I think because of the Japanese language and Miku's lyrics, the melody comes out "better" in the vocals. Make no mistake, Saiki knows what she is doing as much as anyone in the band and I will contest anyone that believes she is not the perfect fit for this band. She has grown into a great front woman as well. I mean it is really special to see her smile on stage.
I miss the good old days when Moratorium, Puzzle, Take me higher, Turn me on, Play (bass intro) and Don’t you tell me (guitar-bass duel) were the standard intro catalogue for BM reactions. These need to be released officially asap!
Man I love this comment. Every new reactor to B-M don't realise just how many of their awesome live performances are gone.
Facts!
@@GaryHolloway-810 Judging by how many still request reactions to them, it sometimes feels some fans don't know either.
@@RevStickleback Yep, I think you're spot on there Rev.
Take me higher and turn me on are incredible rock songs that don't get the attention they deserve.
The bass is turned up AND I think she's also chuggin' that bass with Akane's double kick pedal......insane! I love the way you break everything down musically, makes me put my earbuds in and hear things I never did before.....like Kanami's wah-wah here.
Who else want Miku to whisper like that in their ears.....
Don’t you just want to watch all of the *BAND-MAID* videos so you can just get it over with and buy their entire discography. 😊
"I'm not gonna talk a lot on this one guys, so if you don't like interruptions, this one's for you"
*listens for a few seconds*
*tears up the plan and throws it in the trash*
Never trust me
Number 1 female rockband in the world
This song is 3+ years old now and still to this day I'm impressed with how fucking metal that breakdown riff is.
Yes indeed!
My favorite part of that video is Saiki with both hands raised while the band is going nuts and the crowd is singing like she's summoning the chaos. Also, dunno if you noticed the lead-in at the end, but the next song was Puzzle :)
BANDMAID is “Off the charts” AWESOME! They have more individual and collective talent than any other band I have ever heard! UNBELIEVABLE!
Miku's whisper is arguably my favorite part of this song! Every time I hear it, I think to myself "you had me at 'breaking new gate'!"
I also love the "crowd chanting" bits. Not only for its audience participation moment to connect with the audience, but for it being used to let the tension rebuild after the solo so that last chorus can give you that full-on kick to the gut! Plus it allows the "least metal" aspect of the final crowd chant to become metal with the brutally heavy 16ths on the kick drum that perfectly complements what was, at first a juxtaposition. Kanami is truly a songwriting/arranging goddess!!!
I am proud to say that i am a huge fan of this band. one of the things i love most in Band-Maid is that there is not one member that stands out. they all are essential for the band. You don't see that so often. this is so awesome. And last but not least. their talent is totally insane. Love Band-Maid
I like the mix on this concert, so STRONG! The spot light solo on Kamani is on of my favorite moments in all of Band Maid's concert videos! Misa, Misa, Misa! Akane is going crazy all thru this song! Siaki and Miku harmonize so well! The Pigeon is irresistible! Awesome song!
I realy love how Miku bounces around during this song :)
She bounces more than Tigger!
I just might be tearing up because I feel like at 6:20 Kanami is channeling Randy Rhoads. Not JUST there either. Soooo nice to know that legacy is in such good hands.
possibly my favorite song of BAND MAID..and deserves an award for best use of Dilly-Dally in a song
It's rumoured that the norse god Thor is having a beef with them. He thinks they stole his thunder.
HAHA.Oh man it was the chat over coffee that did it. We just hadn't had enough caffeine ourselves then :D
@@GaryHolloway-810 Coffee and Band-Maid. All you need for a healthy diet. Oh, and maybe pizza.
@@Jonas_S_ Lol. That combination sounds good to me.😋
@@GaryHolloway-810 Kanami likes Cheesecake as it helps her pull herself together, so iWas thinking that maybe it should be added as a Course to the Proper Diet?
@@johnnylaroux9517 Strangely, the UK's oldest person died today aged 112 & she recently said eating cakes were the secret of her longevity. So yes, cheesecake should be added :)
Love when in the last chorus Miku sings alone for a second and Saiki enter somewhere late. Sounds so good.
Miku Kobato loves strawberry cakes & sweets. She once had a dream that she ate a giant marshmallow & woke to find her pillow was gone :)
LOL! Aaaand we're back to our regular not so serious program :D
{ :-o I hope it wasn't her Miffy pillow. That would be a sad pigeon.
@@stevehall5128 Even in sleep Miku protects Miffy :)
... I got nothing. :)
@@crabuki1273 ROTFL.🤣
Mikus "Don't Dilly Dally" takes you by surprise, then your hit by that riff and you have no choice, you must love them.
Kanami For Ever, maybe nobody knows that almost 80% or almost all the songs composed by Kanami on the Piano, including the various passages, a genius, is absolutely one of the most versatile guitarists I've heard, well then MIsa stop Akane not words, Miku idem I love the voice and tone of Saiky ... simply fantastic to see and hear
I am SO glad you were able to react to this version of this song. Easily my favorite overall song and performance as of now. Nice and greasy with places to land and take in the scenery. Also my favorite Kanami solo after Puzzle. You are definitely my favorite reactor for all the reasons everyone mentions, I literally check every day to see if you've posted a new Band Maid vid. Love it, love it! Please check out the Rinne MV when you get the chance.
I've always felt like this is the perfect song to end a concert with. They didn't in this show, but still. I love this song.
Always look forward to your Band-Maid song analysis. 🤘🏽
I love the use of the backing track for this song. It really adds a lot to the *sound*, though it always looks just a little weird when you hear a whole chorus doing the 'oh oh oohs' towards the end of the song. Kanami's lead parts really make this song for me.
I like going through it twice (kind of) to point out things. That's cool!
I do kind of wish Miku and Kanami would add backing vocals to that part though, live, as no real crowd ever sings quite as in tune as the crowd "seems to" on this recording.
@@RevStickleback And we know from the acoustic Puzzle/Anemone that Kanami can do it quite well. I guess she doesn't feel confident with it and/or just doesn't want to.
MISA !!!!!! MISA!!!!!! MISA!!!!!!! I'm glad you got to review this hard to find song. So good. Awesome, our ladies made your wall of fame. 💯 🎤🎸🎸🎸🥁🇯🇵
saeki's one of the best vocalist i've ever heard live. it's like almost a recording.. her intonation is just so good live
Right at 6:06 is when Kanami's power level maxes out and she gets possessed by the spirit of Dimebag. That breakdown and solo could easily have come off a Pantera album.
Back again to say I like watching Champ fanboy over BAND-MAID's composition. Always entertaining.
I decided to go live for the first time in 15 years. Budokan fun! Thank you so much for your fun reaction. By the way, I also like Miku. From an old Rockman from Japan
This was my very first ever band-maid live performance that I've watched. And I literally fell for them even more. And oh, the next song after moratorium is puzzle.
Btw, have you checked dreamcatcher's halloween special? It's Boca K-Zombie Version. I think you'll love it. You should also react on that one.
I capped Miku's intro and now it's my ring tone.
Hey Man! I am sorry to see you been under the weather. I love your new poster. Great reaction and enjoyed your thoughts throughout the song. I was chuckling with your comments about Miku whispering early on. Will chat at you later and get well soon Champ!
Another great review and breakdown of these incredible ladies.
Every time I hear this song I rewind twice to hear Miku's whisper again, Uff I love how it start! Saludos capo!
By the way. For a while now there has been a torrent up of the 2017 Shinkiba concert. Their first concert video. It can be found with "LEXX BAND-MAID - Shinkiba Studio Coast (24.11.2017)" on lexx.impa.me server.
To get a set list just type in Shinkiba Studio Coast (24.11.2017) Multiple places have the set list posted.
This is one of my top favorite Band-Maid songs and the one that I think captures almost all of the band's "elements": heavy crunching riffs, explosive bass/drums, melodic catchy chorus, audience sing-along, killer solo/breakdown section... and always with their signature change up for the second verse. Great reaction!
Miku's bottom string sounds loose as hell in the breakdown and I love it.
Absolutely so cool!
Pause and talk all you want. That's why most of us come here. If I want to hear the song without interruption I'll go listen to it. BTW, did you actually miss Miku singing lead for part of the last verse? That's how good the two of them can blend their voices. Even Champ missed it.
did not notice at all... twice.
Real Existence Live also has one or 2 good Miku whispers
I thought the moratorium video was taken down. Glad it is back.
Really glad that Band-Maid has made it onto your poster collection!
Another excellent reaction and analysis! I'm going to add to the requests for "Daydreaming" (live from Zepp Tokyo 2018 if possible but the MV is still good) and "Rinne" (pick the MV as the only live version on TH-cam is shortened by over 1 minute for a TV promo)
I hope your throat gets well soon!
actually, just double checked the versions of Daydreaming and I would actually recommend the 2017 live version from Shinkiba STUDIO COAST over the 2018 one
This song is one of their best! Your facial reactions say it all! Yeah, they are that perfect! Don't stop talking, some of us like to hear musicians break down why the parts sound so interesting and fresh.
And they performed “Puzzle right after this song.
I gave you a thumbs up as soon as I saw that sweet poster. kinda jealous of it in fact. :)
Nice Moratorium my nambawan favorite! Lols you're having an eargasm with Mika's sexy voice.
My favorite live Band Maid song ever! So good. Better sounding vocals than the album version.
"Cuz why the hell not right? Cuz why not just be fucking awesome for 3 seconds before we continue being awesome?" :)
First time watching your channel, reactors that pick their spots to pause and actually vocalize their thoughts are way better than the ones that just watch the vid say it's great and move onto number next, so yeah nice job.
That concert (Studio Coast 2017) is heavy rock in its purest form. All the songs... Great reaction
This live sounds ridiculously good. It's called Band Maid Shinkiba Studio Coast if you wanna look it up elsewhere. There used to be a lot of these videos on youtube but they all got taken down. This is also where the puzzle live video came from. You could hear the synth coming at the end of moratorium as it's the next song.
Step by step to explain, let's understand more how to appreciate them.
Thanks a lot 😁
Band-Maid gonna Band-Maid. You should buy their first-ever concert blu-ray, once you're done with the reacts from that February gig. (the concert is the same one from your react vids, but obviously more comprehensive with a more performances not on available on TH-cam).
Band-Maid ASMR. A gentle whisper... Then an unrelenting hailstorm of sound right upside your head.
Good review, love how you deconstruct what you're hearing. Please do The Dragon Cries mv.
Second this, a controversial track. One of my 20 or 30 favorites though. (I seriously cannot choose.)
At this point I'm sure he'll do all 30+ of their TH-cam videos... eventually
@@cygnetseven why controversial?
@@williambradley6736 Some fans were turned off because it was dark and spoke out against war and environmental waste. They want the girls to just be pretty and play music and not state their views on world issues.
@@cygnetseven Heaven forbid they have an opinion. ;) Thanks for the reply.
Did you catch that Saiki kept singing "Don't dilly dally." LOL Not sure where they found that expression. Cracks me up.
Old British music hall song : th-cam.com/video/bALc3o0y5Kc/w-d-xo.html
I've always wondered that too lol
I have this weird hunch that it might’ve something to do with the phrase “Dilly dally shilly shally” popularised by Tifa in the movie Final Fantasy 7 Advent Children (English dub). That movie has made quite some waves in the Anime/game community since its release, not surprising considering its arguably the most popular one among the massive Final Fantasy franchise.
I myself had heard that phrase on popular media for the first time in that movie and well, it was rare and memorable enough that I instantly recalled that even though its been a decade and a half since I last watched it.
Just really enjoy your reviews/reactions. Doing real good work dude, keep it up.
Totally get it man, this is like pure Zeppelin (with just a touch of Sabbath in the breakdown ) and then the singalong, which is pure Band Maid. One of my ( many ) favourites ! Hope your throat gets better soon, great reaction as always !
There is something about the bass sound on the fast parts here that really reminds me of Ace of Spades, Motörhead. It's such a bad-ass sound!
Try The Dragon Cries for a real LedZep feel, bluesy, dark, heavy and just amazing!
Good review & analysis. “Moratorium” is one of my all time favorites. In this performance, at the end, you hear the synth intro to the next song which is “Puzzle” another amazing song that you should hear. Akane’s drumming (pedal work) is amazing.
The best musical analysis of their songs! Can't believe you haven't gotten around to Rinne MV. May I also suggest to put on your list, Non-fiction Days, and Glory.
Really enjoy when you react on Band-Maid!
That detail explanation so great!
Maybe next you want to react about Kobato Miku evolution?
Thanks, Mr Champ!
Great job as usual. I'm impressed with the level of detail you get in every song. Take care with that throat man.
I knew you were gonna like this one. This one and Rinne are their most 'metal' tracks.
I think Fate, Spirit and maybe Screaming are close to metal too!
Don't forget "Clang"
Another great review and break down from The Champ. You'll be happy to know that, for me, you ruined all of the other reaction channels. I cannot watch other reactions to Band-Maid anymore after discovering you. Thanks for the great vid and please keep up the great work!
Ah yes. Studio Coast version. I love this show. I wish they would re-release the entire concert.
See if you can react to Matchless Gum and Awkward and Daydreaming from this same show
Interesting that Kanami's lack of ego allowed her to see the fabulous talent of Akane and Misa and let them feature so heavily in the mix. As composer she has every opportunity to promote herself especially as she constantly riffs between solos but she gives them every opportunity to shine and they repay with fantastic support. Similarly she lets the beloved Saiki stand front and centre while she is always to the side and often in the shadows. Five musicians with god given ability who are prepared to give one another space.
2017 Shinkiba and 2018 Zepp Tokyo has one of the best mix to react to.
At this point Miku has a pretty solid grasp of her rhythm and vocal in the band.
Akane and Saiki on both channel...Micho on the right, Miku and MISA killing on the left channel.
Some people like to use Miku as the scapegoat... But damn! Her rhythm section builds so much hype to let MISA and Kanami go loose.
You gotta choose who you've fallen in love with: Miku, Saiki ou Aimer lol
Love all of your videos!!!
There's 7 days in a week... I still got 4 more.
@@TheChampOfMedium hahaha Fair play man
Great analysis of the song structure, thumbs up. Stay safe out there and get better. If you search around on the internet, there's a really detailed analysis of Kanami's pedal board, and also an advert by the company that makes her wah pedals where she reviews the different models. It's super cute to watch Kanami hock some wah pedals to you.
Here's the Morely wah pedal advert with Kanami: th-cam.com/video/fXtpdIJfG_8/w-d-xo.html
And there's the video with all of Kanami's pedals (lots of delay pedals it looks like) th-cam.com/video/YBhf-PUECtk/w-d-xo.html
Wonderful... take care and it’s nice to see and hear you again. If you ever find time to do it in the future, I hope you’ll have a listen to YOLO. I believe the song title doesn’t do it favors and hence the official video is criminally under-watched. I feel like it is an amazingly-written song. While my favourite band-Maid songs keep revolving, YOLO constantly remains in my top 3-5 all the time.
I tend to agree with this; I think it's a masterpiece.
If you hear the end again when the synth comes in after the song you might recognize it as the intro to Puzzle. No rest between songs!
My fav. Song from Band-Maid
Nice breakdown. Stuff I never really "heard". Guess I need to watch more of yours.
You need to check out some of Band-Maid's ballads: Endless Story, Day Dreaming, Anemone, Wonderland (I don't remember if you already did this one or not). I'd also recommend Start Over. It's a pop song, and many fans don't like it simply because it's a pop song. But I think you'll like it. I do.
Great breakdown analysis! You've got to do it for YOLO and Non Fiction Days. What would be great is for you to hear the song once (with only the necessary YT pauses) to get the full impact of the piece... and then a second time with the breakout comments.
Just want to say that hands down the best reactor I've watched man. Seriously great explanations, going back to re-listen, etc, just awesome. Normally don't commit on anything but just want to say thanks and keep them coming. Hope all is well.
“This is the most metal I’ve heard of band maid.” FFS can you react to RINNE already???? Lol kidding at this point I don’t care what band maid song or video you react to. Whatever it is I’m watching ASAP. Seriously though, RINNE. Oh and also you heard right about the non Japanese parts. Another good example would be Endless Story
Screaming as well. Saiki is way dominant in that song as well. ^^ And yeah, Endless Story is the perfect crowd sing-along song especially as the venue gets bigger and bigger.
Kairu Kafuka funny I thought screaming was an “ok” song the first time I listened. But when I saw them perform it as the closing song to their last online concert, omg that song is amazing!!
@@SPERanger ZEPP Tokyo's version of Screaming is the best I've heard and seen.
Rinne is ...faster, but I got to say IMO this is a better overall song, though I do love how grimy Rinne feels.
You want an OLD SCHOOL hard rock sound from these lovely ladies, SHAKE THAT!! Totally 80's arena.
All of the YES! Been waiting for you to get to This one. This song punches you in the face in the best way possible. 👍
The moment 'don't dilly dally' became cool. Another favorite B-M song.
Nice. Dude I've been wondering when Band-Maid was gonna get a poster on the wall.
Rinne has got to be their hardest and fastest song i really would like you to react to daydreaming for a change of pace
Another great reaction to an awesome BM song, I’ve been waiting for you to do this one, now onto Real Existence MV and live, Non Fiction Days, Choose Me...etc!
Missed your Bandmaid breakdowns man! get well soon! looking forward for more Bandmaid reactions!
Need you to react to YOLO. Need more reactions to this song.
mannnnnnnn i love your reactions!!!! ive been into kpop since 2009 and now im super into bandmaid. BANDMAID AND KPOP?!?!? bro we could be best friends lol
c ould not agree more, miku is no fair!!!!!! i almost fainted the first time with the whispering part.
i approve of your wall!!!! my wall has been covered in SNSD posters (you should give them a shot) and bandmaid has been the first exception i've made.
hope you do more bandmaid reactions great job
Didnt notice certain things until you brought it up, kudos for your analysis and reaction!
So there's a point just as Kanami's beginning her solo where Miku seems to open up one of her chords (or drops a key or something?) that I just love the sound of. I don't know if it was a mistake or not but it just sounded great and I was wishing she would repeat it... but she doesn't. I really wanted to hear that chord again, lol. The rhythm on the album version of this song is quite different and plays almost as a lead/rhythm.
Thanks for pointing that out. (I should know by now to listen to them on headphones.) I think it's intentional, as she does something different on two repetitions before going back to the usual riff.
Good enthusiastic reaction as usual with the much appreciated break down of the music. Thumbs up! Get well!
I love it when you listen to the song again. That's what I do!
More more more band-maid
At the end of the song you can hear the beginning of « Puzzle » which is a must react to.
