The Warning were on a World tour. Band Maid were touring at home. Kanami and Miku wrote the original track and lyrics and everybody then had their input. The Maids recorded their part first and The Warning recorded their part when they had a chance. The vocals were recorded together. The Warning and Band Maid said they would reverse the process when Band Maid get a chance to tour Mexico again. Kanami is a genius when it comes to composing and playing. This is not a Band Maid song or The Warning song. BUT A GREAT collaboration. A super group with simply a Genius song.
In the interview on the PRS channel where Kanami and Dany were talking about their guitars they mentioned that there were more collaboration songs written. Here's hoping. Both have been bands for 10 years plus. What makes this really special is that it seems like they all get along like friends with each other and really liked doing this.
To say Kanami is a genius and not mention that Pau is also a genius At Both writing and playing is simply leaving Out the all the facts. In fact I am a major fan of both. But The Warning have way more catchy songs with unbelievable chorus and melodies. Sorry, but that's just facts...
@@RockMusic1959 Your reply is why it is always hard to comment without some sort of silly rivalry. On this occasion the work was mostly done by Kanami. A fact acknowledged by The Warning. It isn't a fight or 'whose band is better'. The facts are Kanami wrote the music and Miku wrote the lyrics. They then collaborated, which means everybody could suggest improvements which clearly everybody did. Your comment that The Warning have more catchy songs and unbelievable chorus and melodies shows clearly you prefer The Warning which is great. I personally remain happy that a bunch of thirty something women from Japan and twenty something women from Mexico could collaborate on a great song.
I just love Miku in the middle of the whole performance like the ringmaster, playing rhythm guitar, & singing backups for two bands, at the same time. What a gorgeous little pigeon.
I'm one of the lucky few that got to see this live in Tokyo! It was absolutely incredible. The Warning played first, and then Band-Maid followed with their set. We all knew we were in for something special when Dany came running back out on stage, guitar in hand. Ale and Pau were close behind, and the crew wheeled out Pau's drums and the amps. You mention how well they work together and it comes down to a lot of mutual respect and appreciation. Some of us caught Kanami and Akane hiding at the side of stage, watching The Warning play the first few songs and smiling all the way. This is definitely not a collaboration put on to garner views (though it certainly will), but because of the mutual respect and love these 8 incredible women have for each other, and their genuine desire to work together. I would also highlight that this has been a great opportunity for The Warning in many respects. The vast majority of people I spoke to at the concert had either never heard of them, or had heard their name but not their music. Speaking after the show, a lot of them were left with a stellar first impression. It's also a great opportunity for Dany to deepen her ties with PRS. PRS HQ has really never done a lot to promote her, but PRS Japan wasn't going to let this opportunity slide. With both Kanami and Dany being PRS artists, PRS Japan ended up sponsoring the show. There were PRS banners everywhere. They also did a joint interview with the two of them, which I highly recommend checking out here on TH-cam. The last thing, which may actually be the most important, is that they made a seriously good set of friends. Although they don't look it, the ladies from Band-Maid are all in their 30s (compared to TW who are in their early 20s). They've got lots of experience as women in the industry, but importantly, they've got lots of experience in life, something The Warning girls are severely lacking given that they've solely focusing on music for half their lives. Having good, strong, role models as close friends is a huge advantage when navigating the turbulent waters of the music industry.
was there too! Seemed like maybe 10 - 20% of the peeps were at least partly a fan of The Warning, but by the end I'd bet that number was like 100% Was so much talent, love for one another on stage with so little of the usual ego normally associated with rock stars. Was great experience! dbl ♥
The closing bass notes from MIssa are the closing bass note of Survive by the Warning as heard on the Ted X video all those years ago. Oh, and I am leaning hard my oldest kid to make this warm up music for the girl's high school hoops team he caoches.
@@bobcieslinski Alas no noise from coach yet. I guess too many camps, work outs, visiting a college classmate who just moved to an assistant job at Gonzaga from Oklahoma and having a life.
7:21 The Pigeon holding down the Rhythm like the Little Boss she is!! 🤘😍🤘 All the Ladies sound so good on this collaboration! Especially Saiki's Vocals! ❤️❤️
Kanami in an interview on PRS guitar YT said they want to come to Mexico to perform with The Warning. Dany wants them to do a song in Spanish....we can only hope!!
Thanks for your reaction and analysis Bob. Two great bands combining making it twice as special. I encourage everyone to subscribe to both bands TH-cam channel.
Great reaction, if you want to know how this song was put together. Check out the billboard jp interview and you'll see how Kanami Tono, Band-Maid and the Warning put this Song together.. Again great reaction as always. 👍👍🤘🤘🕊️🇺🇸
The best collaboration of the year, the most natural and honest. A joint effort to give their best for the song. They are a great example. I wish them the best! Thanks Bob, excellent video as always.
They really vibe, because they share the passion for doing their own thing and for hard work. They have a lot to give to each other, and they all are team workers by nature, with no big egos. So they are ready to support, and to learn from, their band mates and their friends and counterparts from the other band. It’s the perfect collaboration, and hopefully there will be a lot more.
Thanks again from Japan 有難う 💛。 I witnessed the live debut of this song 😍 that was played as the encore & finale of the special concert by Band-Maid & The Warning on June 12 in Roppongi, Tokyo . My seat was located on the 2nd floor but in the center meaning in front of the two drummers. I was in bliss! It looked to me that Paulina and Akane literally and happily competed like a duel to see which drummer can kick harder enough to break their bass drum in the joint performance. 🤣 (FYI : In the special concert, The Warning, who opened as the special guest, performed so powerful that the Maids were fired up to start their turn with fullest energy as the hostess band. It was fun like a kind of martial arts between two fighters respecting each other. 😄)
I had the same reaction! 🤯 LOL. it was great seeing you so excited and enjoying the music. I was smiling ear to ear, bobbing my head and had to pick up my jaw from the floor a couple of times.😂 The more I hear it, the more I like it. And like many great songs, the more you hear it, the more you pick up things you missed initially. This collab is 🔥🔥🔥!!! Awesome job by both bands! PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘
This was a great song. Very high energy, and everything sounded great. Loved Dany belting that note at the beginning of the song. To me this felt a lot like when I heard Temple of the Dog for the first time. Two great bands getting together and creating awesome music is always fun to see and very exciting. Thanks for the great reaction video!
Thanks Bob for the great reaction! Two of the best Rock bands on the Planet together...the planets have aligned for sure. Great song and video. BTW, my son, who lives in Tokyo attended the concert in Tokyo (I gave him tickets) and he was blown away, said it was awesome. Had him get me a T-shirt from the concert....now my prized possession. Cheers, stay well.
There is an excellent interview on the making of the song on Billboard with both bands in Japan.. 2 were the main ones for the writing the song. I'll let guess who they are. The Warning most importantly learned Kobato is pigeon!! The Warning wants Band Maid to come to Mexico and sing a song in Spanish! Band Maid has had a fan base in Mexico since 2016 when they performed there. What stands out to me is the arrangement, that allowed everybody in.
Dany's scream gets your attention right away. lol. Really liking this song, lost track of how many reactions I've seen.🤘🤘 Yep the 'pairing up' is cool, they used that in a bunch of shorts leading up to this release. Labeling them Ale vs Misa, Akane vs Pau, etc, plus a solo short for Miku. Kanami's smiling because it worked out awesomely, lol, from what I've heard she wrote it. Writing for 2 bands, and challenging everyone as well, awesome job. So apparently, the key is higher than either Dany or Saiki usually sing in. They did blend very well. Hoping they release the live version soon, so far only that 30 sec teaser clip last month has been officially posted. if you haven't seen it, check out the Dany and Kanami interview on PRS Guitars Japan, they said that the bands should do a return engagement in Mexico, that would be awesome.
I didn’t see those clips or the guitar talk Chris. I’ll have to look for it. Man Kanami is such an incredible arranger and composer. This whole things just is off the charts. If they come to Mexico that would be so awesome! Those shows would sell out for sure. Ima ire Band-Maid would time it for a us tour again too.
Hello from New Mexico! I've been a huge TW fan for years. You tube suggested your videos to me. I watched a few and really enjoyed them. Today, as I was watching this one, it all clicked - band teacher, PA, a familiar last name... 😮 It's a small world! Happy to be your new fan. - Jennifer, Kiski '88 trumpet.
Holy cow Jennifer. What a small world it is. Glad you enjoyed the videos. I’m betting you were in band with my brother Rich. He played trumpet and Tuba. I graduated in 85 I was in all of the bands and I played baseball.
Was lucky enough to be at their joint concert in Tokyo back in June where they live debuted this song Also caught the premiere of this video too. Nice to get to read the lyrics on this one Really hoping that they release an official live video of this from that concert too! Both Saiki & Dani are world class frontwomen! The Warning brought it that nite. Think Band Maid ratcheted up a notch so as to not be shown up on their home turf! Was an amazing concert!
When talented musicians come together nothing can go wrong... lucky the fans of both bands, who in little more than 3 minutes came together in this extraordinary collaboration.
from JAPAN. Thank you for your react. It is my pleasure to see you commenting so happily. The great thing about this project is that it was not planned by the management, but was made possible by the friendship and respect between each other's members. This song is not a battle, nor is it meant to compare bands. I think it is an expression of the joy of bands that are fans of each other playing together. What is unfortunate, however, is that there are those who criticize the artists without understanding the significance of the collaboration and ignoring the artists' wishes. As the band and fandom grows, it may be inevitable that there will be antagonists and haters. Dissing either band will never please either member. Regardless of which band you are a fan of, you should warmly support them. I look forward to more videos from you in the future.
That’s what is said now because the constructive criticisms are correct with measures and time stamps, so there’s no other way to debate the truth, so they revert to “It’s what the bands wish” and “It’s a collab” and it’s for “Band Maids new album so TW should take a back seat” blah blah blah. These are reaction videos and that’s where substantiated criticisms are supposed to be. Statements like yours are what attracts the trolls who then say that the fan bases can’t take constructive criticism and these bands are being coddled. If you can refute the constructive criticisms then do so, but this diversion so many of you are attempting doesn’t help at all.
@@rodneyramirez603 You are right. Even if I do not intend it myself, it may be considered a distraction. I think everyone thinks and feels differently, and it is not about what is right or wrong. So even well-meaning intentions can have the opposite effect. I may not have thought this through properly. If my comments have offended you, I apologize profusely.
@@HG-kr5dc No no no my friend there s no reason to apologize, this is a just robust debate. I felt I needed to say something for the reasons I already listed, I will always fight for TW and their integrity. I had to step back when I first spotted the problem and then slow the video down. When I did that, it was glaringly obvious, but not so much at regular speed. And on top of that one of their commenters just came out and said: “@toshimatyu6654 Between the two bands Miku maintains the rhythm, changes the composition and plays between the gaps in the sound. I feel the greatness of Miku’s presence in this song!” This is what I’m hearing in this song, stepping all over anything TW plays and gives TW very little time in both medias. BM gives nowhere near the amount of respect that they’re getting from us, TWA and TW. No worries and no apologies needed! 🤘🏽⚡️VIVA THE WARNING⚡️🤘🏽🇲🇽
Good reaction. Great collaboration. Lots of people were waiting for this. Hope Band Maid comes to the Netherlands one day. Did see the Warning last Monday. Both great live bands. Thanks for this reaction.
John, they played Melkweg in 2018, but hopefully they return soon. But if they don't come for the european tour, Paris and London aren't too far away by train😉
Kanami must have done the arrangement for this. This was a potential train wreck, but that didn't happen. Allowing so much space for each other. Amazing!
I believe she did and you are right lots of potential for bad stuff to go down but the writing and arranging and the professionalism really comes out with all of these awesome ladies.
@@TlanImass😅 How sneaky! 😜 I thought Dani pushed herself to adapt to Saiki. Didn't know Saiki was also a bit lower. Is it Kanami who has a really high voice (especially speaking voice) in Band Maid? In any case, if you are right, I'm sure Dani and Saiki will get her back, and repay the prank, with interest 😁🤘
@@niclasvestman Yes, Kanami-san has a high speaking voice. Higher than the others but still pretty normal. In the Billboard interview Dani said she will write the song in the lower key next time! lol
Years ago, when I started on Instagram, I saw that Pau was liking nearly everything that BAND-MAID and Akane posted. I had a feeling they’d meet up eventually, and when they did at Aftershock 2002, I believe it was Saiki that said The Warning mentioned doing a song together.
Also, the one time one of the sisters answered my questions in one of their Instagram lives, I asked Dany if she was a fan of Japanese bands like Pau is. Dany said yes, they all are, and specifically said they’re fans of Babymetal. When they played this live, I was there with my wife and two of ours friends and we had a great time. The energy in the crowd was great, and the ladies had so much fun playing together. The drum exchange (I hesitate to call it a duel) was a bit longer.
I loved the badsss lyrics and Saiki's phrasing of "more" in the initial verse. I think you are the first reactor to point that out! Such a thrill to hear these Queens of Rock and Roll rip out a banger like Show Them! The feeling I get is like Wayne and Garth said "We're not worthy!"
An absolutely amazing collaboration! The admiration and respect was definitely obvious. There is an awesome interview of all 8 members on Billboard-Japan's website (use the original Japanese version translated by Google, for some reason the site's own English version leaves a bunch out). The interview provided some interesting insights into the process and was in general just a love-fest between the two groups. In the PRS interview Dany said it's here goal to get Band-Maid to sing a new song in Spanish when they come to Mexico.
I was doubtful about this collaboration, I had been a diehard maidiac for years, but with the release of this song, these girls did AWESOME!!! the lyrics i should add are meant to tell ALL of us to "show them"...thank you girls for such powerful lyrics and meaning. Together? ok I am sold, they can make more together!!! I LOVE IT!!!
8 top tier artists in one place (with their instruments) it could have been chaos, but Dani has said that she was pleasantly surprised how much Kanami was involved with everything from composing and arranging to audio engineering (with MISA) and playing, I have to believe that the genius that is Kanami has her fingerprints all over this. She knows how to do it all, so i would think she is basically a producer now
@@bobcieslinski I just watched your reaction again and gotta say I hadn't really appreciated what a rarity it is to have bands of this calibre melding together so perfectly until you pointed it out. I had to think about all the big bands nand, yes, it has never been done like this before.
И у меня ощущение было, что словно девушки всегда играли вместе, настолько гладко и целостно звучит песня. Сколько же труда и таланта было вложено в это звучание обеими группами.
She's smiling all the time live, but I thought it was a good point. In the MVs they don't really show the instrumentalists faces much in general, and they're almost always rocking out hard when they do show them. This video did show everyone's faces much more than typical BM videos.
That's the most English I've heard come out of Saiki's mouth since Band-Maid started. I was skeptical about this song when it came out. The only reason I gave it a chance was because of your reaction Bob. What a brilliant collaboration. Thanks for another great introduction to my music list. Cheers sir.
🎀 W I N !!!!! W I N !!!⚡I think we can just say, at their level, Band-Maid and The Warning are equal peers at the very top of the "Rock" pile. Thx Bob!
The secret of this whole thing is Kanami's composition and arrangement accommodating both bands styles. A second song recently sung in English by Saiki. Been saying for ages- Good move.
Really an epic outing. I’d like them to linger a little more on each musician. I want a 10 minute extended remix, that would be awesome, but on the whole a real great collaboration, more like a big party. Hope to see more. This one in just a couple days has proven incredibly popular, a stellar response from everyone.
I have been watching your reactions for quite some time and FINALLY subscribed ( I thought I already had). Watching your reactions always reminds me of my own on my channel. You seem around the same age and get the giddy schoolboy look that I do as well. You're more schooled in music than I am but I do know the joy of music in the same way you do and am a fellow musician. You looked almost ready to tear up at the switch off part just as I did. Thanks for your insights and hope to see you on my channel someday.
@@bobcieslinski Thanks for the reply. Before the link I JUST HAD THE BEST IDEA! I don't think The Warning will play Show Them live without Band Maid but,.........I bet they could play it with Halestorm and Evanescence while they're in Canada opening for them. What do you think? Sounds awesome to me. Here is the link to my channel th-cam.com/channels/VI8ItkS1VwLGIvR_w75MYw.html and a suggestion if you haven't already heard it. Sharks by The Warning is a cool ass song. Either the Pol and Rock live version or the lyric video. One of my favorites from the cd.
Great reaction! Thanks! Habla mucho del gran talento y humildad de estas jóvenes lograr este tipo de colaboración. Cada banda saca lo mejor de sí actuando por separado, pero esta colaboración ha sido brillante, un hito histórico sin lugar a dudas.
Opposite ends of the globe!!! Notice how they start on the street in the beginning and by the end of the tune they are on a roof of a building with a helipad.
The only thing that disappointed me about this was that there wasn't more *of* it :) World class jam session with 8 stellar musicians having a total blast riffing off of each other. Could so easily have descended into chaos and mud, but instead it stayed razor-sharp all the way through.
The song was cleverly written. Both bands can also include it in their programme. It has the typical length of The Warning songs, but can easily be extended with the typical Band Maid solos. Who is playing the instruments is irrelevant. Everyone can show off their skills. Only the vocals need some work. But I think it would work with just Saiki or Danny's voice. Including the harmonies of Miku or Pau or Ale.
You've said everything I would have said. I can't add anything more. Maybe except that I love Band Maid as a band and each of the girls individually. They are so talented, so technically perfect, that I could talk about each of them individually for a very, very long time. I have an "ear for bass", I went to music school in the cello class, later I played drums in a punk band, so it's no wonder that I pay the most attention to the bass and drums. Misa is simply the ruler of the bass. To say that she is the queen of the bass is an understatement. She is like a ring from the Lord of the Rings, one to rule them all. There are many other great bassists that I also love, but Misa has something special about her. Something that others lack, even if they are great. And the bass is always perfectly emphasized in their recordings, unlike in other bands, where it is simply the rhythm section. Akane on drums is also amazing, although there are a few others who are on par with her (like Haruna from Lovebites). I love Kanami's style of playing, how she can immerse herself in her playing. You look at her and you see that when she plays, for her, there is only her, the guitar and the sounds she makes. She reminds me of myself when I'm lost in something (e.g. when I'm thinking about how to continue my novel). Miku... Miku is supposedly just a guitarist, just a modest vocal addition, but what a one! Without her little additions, how much these songs would lose! And the great Saiki. I'm incredibly impressed with how much this collaboration with The Warning turned out. As if they had been playing together for years! MASTERPIECE!!!
There is a huge problem here. There is so much talent that these 8 badass ladies would need a 20 minute song for everyone to stretch and play. I love these girls
My friend: DarWin, The Warning and Band Maid...3 de las mejores Bandas del mundo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Almost forgot, Bob, have you watched the PRS video with Kanami and Dani? AND there is video of Kanami's PRS Private Stock guitar. If you do, what do you think the inlay is on the back of the neck?
Two of the best rocks bands coming together like this. WOW!!!

@@bobcieslinski Alas no noise from coach yet. I guess too many camps, work outs, visiting a college classmate who just moved to an assistant job at Gonzaga from Oklahoma and having a life.
Note to other bands: this is how a collaborative video should be done. Marvelous!
So right Bruce.
Daniela dubbed Kanami-san the 'Overseer' during the making of this song and music video. lol
7:21 The Pigeon holding down the Rhythm like the Little Boss she is!! 🤘😍🤘 All the Ladies sound so good on this collaboration! Especially Saiki's Vocals! ❤️❤️
Dany vocals Are actually better.
They are both awesome for sure.
These bands admire, like and socialize (with) each other: it made a real difference in performance and in how tight the sound was.
It does make a difference and you could see it in the video.
Collaboration tour 2025 is what is needed for these 2 great bands.
That would be awesome!
Kanami in an interview on PRS guitar YT said they want to come to Mexico to perform with The Warning. Dany wants them to do a song in Spanish....we can only hope!!
Dany and Kanami just did an interview with PRS Japan talking about their guitars.
Guitar buddy's and all round great people.
I saw it it was awesome!
I love Miku got her moments. Right after everyone paired up the dropped out all the instruments but she kept playing the rhythm
I actually didn't notice that on the first few listens. Now I hear it everytime. 😁
@@BlahBlah_13 I guess Dani does rhythm parts on recordings. Band maid fans are pampered with aa rhythm guitarist like miku
She’s the glue that holds it all together. The difference maker.
Thanks for your reaction and analysis Bob. Two great bands combining making it twice as special. I encourage everyone to subscribe to both bands TH-cam channel.
Hey Andy! I’m thanks! I have their channels linked in the description.
Pau's groove at 4:35 is my favorite part of the song
Mine too , she always has the best grooves . It is not said enough
Maybe MISA’s bass ending will be the beginning of their next collaboration song
That was a sick part. I loved it. It could be.
Great reaction, if you want to know how this song was put together. Check out the billboard jp interview and you'll see how Kanami Tono, Band-Maid and the Warning put this Song together.. Again great reaction as always. 👍👍🤘🤘🕊️🇺🇸

It sure does Brad.

So they are ready to support, and to learn from, their band mates and their friends and counterparts from the other band. It’s the perfect collaboration, and hopefully there will be a lot more.
I’m so love how they all are egoless. That will help them all to continue to grow and become bigger stars for sure.
Thanks again from Japan 有難う 💛。 I witnessed the live debut of this song 😍 that was played as the encore & finale of the special concert by Band-Maid & The Warning on June 12 in Roppongi, Tokyo . My seat was located on the 2nd floor but in the center meaning in front of the two drummers. I was in bliss! It looked to me that Paulina and Akane literally and happily competed like a duel to see which drummer can kick harder enough to break their bass drum in the joint performance. 🤣
(FYI : In the special concert, The Warning, who opened as the special guest, performed so powerful that the Maids were fired up to start their turn with fullest energy as the hostess band. It was fun like a kind of martial arts between two fighters respecting each other. 😄)
Hey Flugelhorn! Nice to hear from you again. Man that concert had to be epic based off of this song. It’s pretty epic.
WAR-MAID !! 🤘🤘
I had the same reaction! 🤯 LOL. it was great seeing you so excited and enjoying the music. I was smiling ear to ear, bobbing my head and had to pick up my jaw from the floor a couple of times.😂 The more I hear it, the more I like it. And like many great songs, the more you hear it, the more you pick up things you missed initially. This collab is 🔥🔥🔥!!! Awesome job by both bands! PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘
Thanks Bro! A lot to get excited about in This one.
This was a great song. Very high energy, and everything sounded great. Loved Dany belting that note at the beginning of the song. To me this felt a lot like when I heard Temple of the Dog for the first time. Two great bands getting together and creating awesome music is always fun to see and very exciting. Thanks for the great reaction video!
Thanks it was an incredible song and collaboration! So much fun.
Thanks Bob for the great reaction! Two of the best Rock bands on the Planet together...the planets have aligned for sure. Great song and video. BTW, my son, who lives in Tokyo attended the concert in Tokyo (I gave him tickets) and he was blown away, said it was awesome. Had him get me a T-shirt from the concert....now my prized possession. Cheers, stay well.
Oh man Carl how cool of you to get him tickets for a once in a lifetime show. That’s cool you got the tee.
There is an excellent interview on the making of the song on Billboard with both bands in Japan.. 2 were the main ones for the writing the song. I'll let guess who they are. The Warning most importantly learned Kobato is pigeon!! The Warning wants Band Maid to come to Mexico and sing a song in Spanish! Band Maid has had a fan base in Mexico since 2016 when they performed there.
What stands out to me is the arrangement, that allowed everybody in.
That would be epic having them do more together. If Band-Maid came to Mexico maybe they would time it to tour the us again.
Dany's scream gets your attention right away. lol. Really liking this song, lost track of how many reactions I've seen.🤘🤘 Yep the 'pairing up' is cool, they used that in a bunch of shorts leading up to this release. Labeling them Ale vs Misa, Akane vs Pau, etc, plus a solo short for Miku. Kanami's smiling because it worked out awesomely, lol, from what I've heard she wrote it. Writing for 2 bands, and challenging everyone as well, awesome job. So apparently, the key is higher than either Dany or Saiki usually sing in. They did blend very well. Hoping they release the live version soon, so far only that 30 sec teaser clip last month has been officially posted.
if you haven't seen it, check out the Dany and Kanami interview on PRS Guitars Japan, they said that the bands should do a return engagement in Mexico, that would be awesome.
I didn’t see those clips or the guitar talk Chris. I’ll have to look for it. Man Kanami is such an incredible arranger and composer. This whole things just is off the charts. If they come to Mexico that would be so awesome! Those shows would sell out for sure. Ima ire Band-Maid would time it for a us tour again too.
Shorts on the band's yt, teaser clips on other soc media
@@chriso6719 thanks!
@@bobcieslinski When you spoke about Kanamis smile the video showed Misa & Ale. 😆
Hello from New Mexico! I've been a huge TW fan for years. You tube suggested your videos to me. I watched a few and really enjoyed them. Today, as I was watching this one, it all clicked - band teacher, PA, a familiar last name... 😮 It's a small world! Happy to be your new fan. - Jennifer, Kiski '88 trumpet.
Holy cow Jennifer. What a small world it is. Glad you enjoyed the videos. I’m betting you were in band with my brother Rich. He played trumpet and Tuba. I graduated in 85 I was in all of the bands and I played baseball.
Was lucky enough to be at their joint concert in Tokyo back in June where they live debuted this song
Also caught the premiere of this video too. Nice to get to read the lyrics on this one
Really hoping that they release an official live video of this from that concert too! Both Saiki & Dani are world class frontwomen!
The Warning brought it that nite. Think Band Maid ratcheted up a notch so as to not be shown up on their home turf! Was an amazing concert!
Man are you lucky. That had to be epic!
@@bobcieslinski was amazing!
When talented musicians come together nothing can go wrong... lucky the fans of both bands, who in little more than 3 minutes came together in this extraordinary collaboration.
You said it. Great comments!
...and it all started with a small pigeon. Miku shines in her own way, proudly delighting in what she has created. "Pigeons will rule the world."
Because Kobato. 🕊 🙂
from JAPAN. Thank you for your react. It is my pleasure to see you commenting so happily. The great thing about this project is that it was not planned by the management, but was made possible by the friendship and respect between each other's members. This song is not a battle, nor is it meant to compare bands. I think it is an expression of the joy of bands that are fans of each other playing together. What is unfortunate, however, is that there are those who criticize the artists without understanding the significance of the collaboration and ignoring the artists' wishes. As the band and fandom grows, it may be inevitable that there will be antagonists and haters. Dissing either band will never please either member. Regardless of which band you are a fan of, you should warmly support them. I look forward to more videos from you in the future.
Thanks for the great comments. Both bands are amazing rock bands and I enjoy them both.
@@bobcieslinski It is wonderful. I think that is what a fan should be. I, too, will learn from you. Thank you for your comments.
That’s what is said now because the constructive criticisms are correct with measures and time stamps, so there’s no other way to debate the truth, so they revert to “It’s what the bands wish” and “It’s a collab” and it’s for “Band Maids new album so TW should take a back seat” blah blah blah.
These are reaction videos and that’s where substantiated criticisms are supposed to be.
Statements like yours are what attracts the trolls who then say that the fan bases can’t take constructive criticism and these bands are being coddled.
If you can refute the constructive criticisms then do so, but this diversion so many of you are attempting doesn’t help at all.
@@rodneyramirez603 You are right. Even if I do not intend it myself, it may be considered a distraction. I think everyone thinks and feels differently, and it is not about what is right or wrong. So even well-meaning intentions can have the opposite effect. I may not have thought this through properly. If my comments have offended you, I apologize profusely.
@@HG-kr5dc No no no my friend there s no reason to apologize, this is a just robust debate. I felt I needed to say something for the reasons I already listed, I will always fight for TW and their integrity.
I had to step back when I first spotted the problem and then slow the video down. When I did that, it was glaringly obvious, but not so much at regular speed. And on top of that one of their commenters just came out and said: “@toshimatyu6654 Between the two bands Miku maintains the rhythm, changes the composition and plays between the gaps in the sound. I feel the greatness of Miku’s presence in this song!” This is what I’m hearing in this song, stepping all over anything TW plays and gives TW very little time in both medias. BM gives nowhere near the amount of respect that they’re getting from us, TWA and TW. No worries and no apologies needed! 🤘🏽⚡️VIVA THE WARNING⚡️🤘🏽🇲🇽
Good reaction. Great collaboration. Lots of people were waiting for this. Hope Band Maid comes to the Netherlands one day. Did see the Warning last Monday. Both great live bands. Thanks for this reaction.
Thanks John! So lucky you got to see them live. I haven’t seen either one yet. Hoping to though.
John, they played Melkweg in 2018, but hopefully they return soon. But if they don't come for the european tour, Paris and London aren't too far away by train😉
@@allesmetkaas You are right. did not know them back then.
Future hall of fame rockstars …every single one of them are just talent through the roof ..🤘
I agree
Kanami must have done the arrangement for this. This was a potential train wreck, but that didn't happen. Allowing so much space for each other. Amazing!
Kanami, the humble musical genius, with nerves of steel considering the task.
I believe she did and you are right lots of potential for bad stuff to go down but the writing and arranging and the professionalism really comes out with all of these awesome ladies.
I have never heard Saiki sing in that high register before.
Kanami-san wrote the song in a higher key to challenge both Saiki-san and Daniela. :)
Me either.
@@TlanImass😅 How sneaky! 😜 I thought Dani pushed herself to adapt to Saiki. Didn't know Saiki was also a bit lower. Is it Kanami who has a really high voice (especially speaking voice) in Band Maid? In any case, if you are right, I'm sure Dani and Saiki will get her back, and repay the prank, with interest 😁🤘
@@niclasvestman Yes, Kanami-san has a high speaking voice. Higher than the others but still pretty normal. In the Billboard interview Dani said she will write the song in the lower key next time! lol
@@TlanImass 😄 Awesome 😎👍
I would like to hear this song just with The Warning and the same song just with Band Maid.
all that and both were singing in a second language,,beautiful
The #1 J-Girl Band collabs with the #1 Mexican Girl Group.
With the number one band period! TW
@@jaguaron007Only one rising to the stars like a 🚀!
🤘🏽⚡️VIVA THE WARNING!!⚡️🤘🏽🇲🇽
!!!GOODISM¡¡¡ The Warning + BAND-MAID is 100% 🔥 !!!🎵Ole Ole Ole Oleeee Warning/BAND-MAID🎵¡¡¡. Greetings from Argentina.
Years ago, when I started on Instagram, I saw that Pau was liking nearly everything that BAND-MAID and Akane posted. I had a feeling they’d meet up eventually, and when they did at Aftershock 2002, I believe it was Saiki that said The Warning mentioned doing a song together.
Also, the one time one of the sisters answered my questions in one of their Instagram lives, I asked Dany if she was a fan of Japanese bands like Pau is. Dany said yes, they all are, and specifically said they’re fans of Babymetal.
When they played this live, I was there with my wife and two of ours friends and we had a great time. The energy in the crowd was great, and the ladies had so much fun playing together. The drum exchange (I hesitate to call it a duel) was a bit longer.
Outstanding reaction/analysis, Bob! I was waiting for this! Thanks! 🤗
Glad you enjoyed it I know I did.
You hit it on the note 🎶#BobCieslinski about 2 bands playing together soo seamlessly.
They make it seem second hand nature.
🤘❤🔥🤘
Thanks!
Arrangement by Kanami! 🤘
I loved the badsss lyrics and Saiki's phrasing of "more" in the initial verse. I think you are the first reactor to point that out! Such a thrill to hear these Queens of Rock and Roll rip out a banger like Show Them! The feeling I get is like Wayne and Garth said "We're not worthy!"
That’s a great reference to Wayne and Garth. The hanks for the kind words!
By isolating Miku's strumming of her Zemeitas in the video, you realize that the melody was being laid down in a wall of sound the entire song.
So gloriously refreshing to see such talent collaborate with joyful mutual respect to create such an epic tune, sensational 👍🍻
Couldn't agree more!
The Warning and Band Maid together what a Great time to be alive!!!! Great reaction as always Bob.
Great time for sure Ron.
Outstanding.
An absolutely amazing collaboration! The admiration and respect was definitely obvious. There is an awesome interview of all 8 members on Billboard-Japan's website (use the original Japanese version translated by Google, for some reason the site's own English version leaves a bunch out). The interview provided some interesting insights into the process and was in general just a love-fest between the two groups. In the PRS interview Dany said it's here goal to get Band-Maid to sing a new song in Spanish when they come to Mexico.
I watched Dani and Kanami interview. It was awesome.
I was doubtful about this collaboration, I had been a diehard maidiac for years, but with the release of this song, these girls did AWESOME!!! the lyrics i should add are meant to tell ALL of us to "show them"...thank you girls for such powerful lyrics and meaning. Together? ok I am sold, they can make more together!!! I LOVE IT!!!
8 top tier artists in one place (with their instruments) it could have been chaos, but Dani has said that she was pleasantly surprised how much Kanami was involved with everything from composing and arranging to audio engineering (with MISA) and playing, I have to believe that the genius that is Kanami has her fingerprints all over this. She knows how to do it all, so i would think she is basically a producer now
She is Ana big and I believe she was the maestro behind the production.
Superb reaction and analysis as always, Bob. A very catchy song that keeps popping into my head.
Mine too Tony! It was epic.
@@bobcieslinski I just watched your reaction again and gotta say I hadn't really appreciated what a rarity it is to have bands of this calibre melding together so perfectly until you pointed it out. I had to think about all the big bands nand, yes, it has never been done like this before.
Thanks Tony! I’m glad I could point something out because you are very knowledgeable.
И у меня ощущение было, что словно девушки всегда играли вместе, настолько гладко и целостно звучит песня. Сколько же труда и таланта было вложено в это звучание обеими группами.
And Dany reaching back to her 14-15 year old voice as to not overpower everyone.
A little unfair, but I get what you are saying.
@@gregjetnikoff7124 But also true.
Especially because Kanami wrote the vocals a key higher than each normally sings in.
It's so fitting because both groups formed in 2013. Of course the ladies from Band-Maid are about 10 years older than DPA
Two of today's most spectacular bands closing ranks. And what did we get? - a scintillating gem. This is a musical moment of glory.
It sure is.
These are my two new favorite bands. Love them playing off each other, this was too short. Love your reaction. Stay safe.🤘
Kanami is also smiling when she is "talking" to MISA in their encounters, e.g. in "Hate?" and "Dont you tell me".
She's smiling all the time live, but I thought it was a good point. In the MVs they don't really show the instrumentalists faces much in general, and they're almost always rocking out hard when they do show them. This video did show everyone's faces much more than typical BM videos.
That makes sense cause it felt new to me.
Guys, this song is in 4/4 time. You can tell because this band teacher can count to 4 at several different times during the video.
Good catch. I did do that. I appreciate you paying attention. Lol
🤘🤘🤘 KONNICHIWA, HOLA, HELLO BOB CIESLINSKI how are you, It really felt like seeing the Avengers for the first time, that's exactly who I felt🤘🤘🤘
Hey Fernando! That is an epic way of explaining this referencing the Avengers. You are talking my language man.
@@bobcieslinski You have a beautiful day, I'm glad you liked my commentary on this tremendous colaboration 🤘🤘🤘
It was cool to see you so excited, lol. It's an awesome song.
Thanks! There’s a lot to get excited about here.
That's the most English I've heard come out of Saiki's mouth since Band-Maid started. I was skeptical about this song when it came out. The only reason I gave it a chance was because of your reaction Bob. What a brilliant collaboration. Thanks for another great introduction to my music list. Cheers sir.
Wow Donegal! I’m humbled. Thanks for thr kind words man. You made me feel great on my Bday!
@@bobcieslinski Happy belated birthday.
Thanks!
Kanami is having the time of her life and it really shows.
Dany’s Lzzy open is awesome. The collab…HOLY FUCK!
Band-Maid + The Warning = Awesome rock!!!!!!!
For sure Philip!
Thanks for the reaction…Kanami hinted more to come!
🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!
That would be awesome Steven!
Best band on the planet from Japan and Mexicos greatest export.. what is not to like
Right.
🤘⚡🔥 PO!!!
🎀 W I N !!!!! W I N !!!⚡I think we can just say, at their level, Band-Maid and The Warning are equal peers at the very top of the "Rock" pile. Thx Bob!
Yep I’d agree Tom.
The secret of this whole thing is Kanami's composition and arrangement accommodating both bands styles. A second song recently sung in English by Saiki. Been saying for ages- Good move.
Really an epic outing. I’d like them to linger a little more on each musician. I want a 10 minute extended remix, that would be awesome, but on the whole a real great collaboration, more like a big party. Hope to see more. This one in just a couple days has proven incredibly popular, a stellar response from everyone.
Yeah extended would be great.
Great reaction to a Great Song!
Hi Bob. You can definately each band's style in this song, a well worked collaboration.
Yep you are right Lewis.
I have been watching your reactions for quite some time and FINALLY subscribed ( I thought I already had). Watching your reactions always reminds me of my own on my channel. You seem around the same age and get the giddy schoolboy look that I do as well. You're more schooled in music than I am but I do know the joy of music in the same way you do and am a fellow musician. You looked almost ready to tear up at the switch off part just as I did. Thanks for your insights and hope to see you on my channel someday.
Awesome that you have a channel and are a musician too. Send me a link for your channel. I’d love to check it out.
@@bobcieslinski Thanks for the reply. Before the link I JUST HAD THE BEST IDEA! I don't think The Warning will play Show Them live without Band Maid but,.........I bet they could play it with Halestorm and Evanescence while they're in Canada opening for them. What do you think? Sounds awesome to me. Here is the link to my channel th-cam.com/channels/VI8ItkS1VwLGIvR_w75MYw.html and a suggestion if you haven't already heard it. Sharks by The Warning is a cool ass song. Either the Pol and Rock live version or the lyric video. One of my favorites from the cd.
Great reaction! Thanks! Habla mucho del gran talento y humildad de estas jóvenes lograr este tipo de colaboración. Cada banda saca lo mejor de sí actuando por separado, pero esta colaboración ha sido brillante, un hito histórico sin lugar a dudas.
Great comments I agree with you completely.
The Pigeon stuck in the middle!
Opposite ends of the globe!!! Notice how they start on the street in the beginning and by the end of the tune they are on a roof of a building with a helipad.
Rock Goddesses assemble!
The only thing that disappointed me about this was that there wasn't more *of* it :) World class jam session with 8 stellar musicians having a total blast riffing off of each other. Could so easily have descended into chaos and mud, but instead it stayed razor-sharp all the way through.
You said it. I hope there is more coming.
Pau and Akane are both just fantastic
Totalmente de acuerdo , fue genial 🤘
The song was cleverly written. Both bands can also include it in their programme. It has the typical length of The Warning songs, but can easily be extended with the typical Band Maid solos. Who is playing the instruments is irrelevant. Everyone can show off their skills. Only the vocals need some work. But I think it would work with just Saiki or Danny's voice. Including the harmonies of Miku or Pau or Ale.
Great comments thanks!
🤘🤘
Locura!!!
Yes, they paired them up. But Miku is alone! And Dani is in two groups.
You've said everything I would have said. I can't add anything more. Maybe except that I love Band Maid as a band and each of the girls individually. They are so talented, so technically perfect, that I could talk about each of them individually for a very, very long time. I have an "ear for bass", I went to music school in the cello class, later I played drums in a punk band, so it's no wonder that I pay the most attention to the bass and drums. Misa is simply the ruler of the bass. To say that she is the queen of the bass is an understatement. She is like a ring from the Lord of the Rings, one to rule them all. There are many other great bassists that I also love, but Misa has something special about her. Something that others lack, even if they are great. And the bass is always perfectly emphasized in their recordings, unlike in other bands, where it is simply the rhythm section. Akane on drums is also amazing, although there are a few others who are on par with her (like Haruna from Lovebites). I love Kanami's style of playing, how she can immerse herself in her playing. You look at her and you see that when she plays, for her, there is only her, the guitar and the sounds she makes. She reminds me of myself when I'm lost in something (e.g. when I'm thinking about how to continue my novel). Miku... Miku is supposedly just a guitarist, just a modest vocal addition, but what a one! Without her little additions, how much these songs would lose! And the great Saiki. I'm incredibly impressed with how much this collaboration with The Warning turned out. As if they had been playing together for years! MASTERPIECE!!!
Dude nice to meet a fellow musician. You’ve got to be pretty good given your comments. So much great stuff to mention for sure.
Epic!! 🔥⚡🔥⚡🔥⚡🔥🎯
Maybe you should have your band members try playing a song from each band. There's an interview with all the members also.
There is a huge problem here. There is so much talent that these 8 badass ladies would need a 20 minute song for everyone to stretch and play. I love these girls
You said it Paul.
THIS IS GREAT STUFF
🔥🤘⚡️
My friend: DarWin, The Warning and Band Maid...3 de las mejores Bandas del mundo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥❤🔥❤🔥❤🔥
Almost forgot, Bob, have you watched the PRS video with Kanami and Dani? AND there is video of Kanami's PRS Private Stock guitar. If you do, what do you think the inlay is on the back of the neck?
I did see it and that is pretty interesting. Very unique.
This didn't sound like a collaboration. This sounded like one giant cohesive super group that has been playing together for years.
They also looked like they were having so much fun.
Yep I agree with all of the comments.
When Miku is playing lead Kanami gets a proud mama look on her face
Great !
🤘🔥🤘
