    It was only three years ago when I first saw a reaction video to Hypa Hypa by Eskimo Callboy from this tour manager on his fairly new channel.

      ​@TankTheTech It really is.
      For me, last year in March, my whole EC journey started with your channel. Never heard EC, never watched reaction channels, it was the algorithm basically having a stroke. At the end of the year I got a notification from Spotify that I'm in the Top 1% listeners for EC, and I've also gained a new hobby of watching reactions to EC, because you showed me that reactions actually can add value to existing content.

    You know what really sells this as a true collaboration? Both bands are doing each others vocal parts. You rarely get that when the collab is just a glorified feature, that usually sticks to the “you get a verse and a chorus to yourself if you‘re lucky“ format. But here, they all jump in on each others vocal parts. I love that so much.

    I've noticed a lot of BabyMetal fans have said how great its been to see them have fun and enjoy themselves as they're usually very serious. To me that's very much the Electric Callboy effect. I agree with you Tank that Electric Callboy are so refreshing in their attitude towards music, they know when to have fun but also make really great music. I've enjoyed watching all your behind the scenes videos with the band. Thanks for giving us such an interesting insight into Touring life. And for showing us how amazingly friendly, down to earth, and fun the guys from EC are.

      It was the same for me. I did hear "Gimme chocolate" like 10 years ago, and while I thought this was a bit odd, I also thought the metal part was really good even back then.
      I kind of lost track for years now, but looked back into some things they did, they do pretty good music in my opinion.

    Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。I witnessed the live debut and the second performance of RATATATA by BABYMETAL and Electric Callboy together in the two-day Fox_Fest on May 25 / 26 (Japan time) . Fun, happy, exhilarating, bubbly... Those words I could think of, as you can imagine. The song was played in the BABYMETAL's setlist in the festival. So, as you pointed out, the band in the back of the girls and Nico / Kevin was BM's West Kami Band (bassist = Ryan Neff) in place of EC band that played in this MV. That was great, too. Yes, on their 50:50 collaboration basis, the interchangeability between the two versatile bands is good. EC boys can join BM concerts and BM girls can show up in EC's worldwide 😍

In the last years, there have been quite a few streams from Rock am Ring, mostly from the main stage - and that's where EC will be performing (Utopia Stage, 08. 06. 2024, 18:40-19:55 MET). Babymetal starts an hour later (21:10, Mandora Stage). So I'd say there's a good chance at least one band will have the option to have their set streamed; wether they want that is another question.

    Here on YT the video was #1 Music trends for at least two days. And yes, a very balanced collaboration, which is great as I love both bands. And I agree that the songwriting is a really fine piece of work
    "They filmed that in Germany." You're not telling me that Babymetal came to the EC compound in Castrop-Rauxel, five miles from my doorstep, without me having the slightest idea, are you? Jeez.
    One question that has interested the Babymetal fans since the song came out: Which of the growls are actually Momo's? We know she can do it. Most of us assume that the second "Are you ready?" and the "Everybody"s are hers, while the first "are you ready" is Kevin. The "out of control" is hard to place, might be both of them. I'd love if you could enlighten us on this question.
    Greetings from Castrop-Rauxel!

      Either you open up to it, listen to it or not.
      And then you either like what they do, or you don`t.
      I just like to have fun, and honestly, EC is fun but BM is something I lost track of and am now reminded that they do good music that is also really fun in their own way. If other people can`t or won`t enjoy it, not my business, I don`t really have time to think about people who are narrowminded.

      If I'm tired and someone links me this song, I won't listen to it. If I'm in a good mood, I will listen to it. And that's just two moods out of like a billion.
      Randomly dropping a song to a friend will usually backfire. Just play it when you're grilling irl and there's some music on the background or listening to same playlist online or whatever. It's a smooth way to slip it in without drawing attention to it.

Even given that it's Electric Callboy and Babymetal it's amazing how many plays it's gathered in such a short time, and yet it's a thoroughly deserved success. They've managed to strike the perfect balance of ingredients. Well done to all!
    It's great to hear that it's such a good outfit working behind the scenes on the tour over there, and yep I'm hyped for a behind the scenes so if that's on the way that'll be cool.

I say "little", because there would be so much more of inside information that we are all interested in. For example, even if this is a 50/50 collaboration, who came up with the initial idea? Why it is released on the BM and not on the EC channel...? Questions over questions. But I understand that this is confidential and only to be revealed by the bands itself. I guess you just won't add "Whistleblower" to your resumé... 😉😁😉
    Anyway, as a German, I am kinda proud of EC and especially how this "niche" collab is currently blowing up. What a effing great job by all the involved parties, and I mean everybody, from the bands to all the production and touring crews...
