    LYRICS:
    The stuff in your head, makes me into just a cute doll.
    Your fantasy, your GAME-hasn’t it made you too tame?
    Look at you, nearly always sitting alone,
    Yet so slow to get back to me. You haven’t a clue.
    Oh baby, I need more. Not just some gentle rejection game.
    You won’t find another woman like this, not in the real world.
    Show me your way to satisfy. Let's get to play more, feel so nice!
    If you want turn up the heat when we love, It's All Right.
    Embrace your lonely freedom, your virtual doll.
    I’ll take your breath away-If you just open your mind
    No No No....
    I’ll tell you what. The roadside grove where we watched the sunset,
    Just a year later there were new buildings all around.
    Time in this city still lurches like a cursor on the screen.
    Maybe there’s a glitch in truth-on the net and in love.
    Oh darling, hold me tight! The days of not knowing, I can’t sleep.
    No makeup to mask my feelings that you know
    Just wanna say ‘love you’. Don’t you know?
    I don't care what people say!
    Do it right, with just a little pain. Don’t care if others turn away. Come On, Night
    If you don’t take care, I'll disappear somewhere. You’ll see,
    it's not a phantasy, I'm just a lonely girl.
    No No No ....
    Oh, baby I need more, more of that secret game of shame.
    I tell you, a woman as good as this just can’t be real.
    Show me your way to satisfy, let's get to play more, feel so nice!
    I want to turn up the heat when we love. What Can I?
    Just wanna say ‘love you’. Don’t you know?
    I don't care what people say.
    Do it right, with just a little pain. Don’t care if others turn away. It’s All Right.
    Embrace your lonely freedom, your virtual doll.
    Someday I’ll be by your side. It’s so reality.
    Let Me Go...

    Band-Maid's early songs were all written by professional song writers although the band altered them a bit to match the members unique preferences. They always wanted to write their own music, so they submitted many songs that were rejected by their management team while they learned the intricacies of professional songwriting. Finally, they wrote the song "Alone" which was the first song that passed muster and the talent of Band-Maid as songwriters and composers were made evident in that great song. Subsequent songs by them demonstrated their genius for creative songwriting and performance which has captivated and awed their many fans.

    Yes, there may be technically better ones, faster ones, show-wise better ones, but as an overall package Akane is one of the absolute (maybe even the) best for me as well. How often is she the one who completely drives a song or gives it that certain something with fills or the like... Maybe not at first glance, but she is outstanding. 🔥🤘🏻

  • @bbobjs
    @bbobjs Год назад +3

    The way I always interpreted this song was that they're the virtual woman or rather that the song is from the perspective of a fake persona, similar to that you might find at a maid cafe. I see the references to "games" as allegorical, in the way that dating is often called a game, but particularly when one or both sides have a vested interest in deceit. The juxtaposition between the lyrics and their expressions throughout the video strongly imply a high level of dishonesty.
    The verses are evocative of a siren's call. Initially the subject correctly identifies the fantasy as simply that "the stuff in your head makes me a cute doll, your fantasy" but they attempt to erode the subject's boundary "you won’t find another woman like this, not in the real world." As we move to the second verse the subject has begun to accept the siren's reality. That grove? It's buildings now, how strange, maybe there's a glitch in truth? "No makeup to mask my feelings THAT YOU KNOW." The subject thinks they've seen the real person but it's still an illusion. This is further emphasized by the inclusion of double meanings through intentionally ambitious lyrics. "Come On, Night" sounds like "Kamawanai" (doesn't matter). We reach the final verse after an extended instrumental segment which implies a passage of time. In this verse the subject is returned to reality "a woman as good as this just can’t be real." This is then further punctuated by a call back to the first verse "embrace your lonely freedom, your virtual doll." except this time instead of being called to open their mind, the subject is told this is reality, let me go.

    While others have pointed out that they didn't write this song, I still enjoyed your discussion of the lyrics. Another early song with even crazier lyrics is "Don't Let Me Down". The first song that was completely written by the band is "Alone", which has surprisingly dark lyrics.

    I always love the images of Akane in most of her shots, & especially the long shots, where she is doing her best impersonation of "Animal" from the Muppet show. God bless her little cotton socks.

    "Real Existence" lyrics by Miwa Sasaki, music by Koji Goto. "New Beginning" was the last album with _no_ band-written songs. The following release "Brand New Maid" had eight songs, "Yuragu" has lyrics by MIku and Saiki and "Alone" is credited completely to the band. The next album, "Just Bring It", had 9 of 13 band-written songs. They haven't looked back. Thanks for the reaction!

    Scuze me if you already did it, but the live version of this on their channel is even better - electric!!! I heard Thrill first close to 4 years ago, which was enough to make me do a 2nd one. That second one was Real Existence Live - and this maidiac has never looked back. Also, this was from before they started writing their own songs, so early maids. Could explain the lyrics you mentioned. If you really want sexy lyrics of course it's Don't Let Me Down - which is another song that they didn't write. It rocks, but not in my top half of maid songs. RE Live on the other hand...

  • @artomatt

    Guys you need to react to a recent RUclips release called Band Maid/ 4 Demensional "Screaming". The person called Dean F merged the fan cam video and audio from four concerts they played in May 2023. The venues were Atlanta, Nashville, Charlotte, and Detroit. They were played in 6 days. The audio from "Screaming" during the concerts was virtually seamless. Amazing! It shows the professionalism and cohesiveness of the group.

  • @drogonr9318
    @drogonr9318 Год назад +2

    Thx for the reaction. This is an early song by the band that was written for them. It's a wonderful song, esp the live version, but it was during the time when the band was still struggling to get management to give the band's own music a chance. If you're interested in their early stuff, I'd personally recommend the early stuff released and written by the band (Alone, Yolo, Unfair Game, Matchless Gum are the first four songs released by the band, and are all amazing). If you can get your hands on any songs from their live 2017 Studio Coast concert, the audio of this performance is amazing and any song from it is worth reacting to (esp imo Awkward, Puzzle, and Moratorium). Enjoy the ride!

    There's nothing wrong with pausing the video to talk about what you're seeing and hearing, but don't you think a 5 minute break is a bit long? The song starts to lose continuity after a while.
    Nice discussion after the song. I think the words are talking about her frustrations with someone who prefers a 2D girl over a real one.
