I just remembered Dir en Grey again and came to this video. They were my absolute favourite band in my teens starting around 12 or 13. Tbh I didnt have a great childhood and there was trauma. Something I always loved about DEG is the emotion. Never have I heard music that feels so deep. Whatever lyrics of any song, nothing ever compared to the emotional rollercoaster of DEG songs. Pain surely plays a role in that. I think when you hit rock bottom and lose yourself somewhere between emptiness and despair, this music hits different and can represent it. Not all songs, but many. Some sound more like hope and power, raising from the ashes. I am aware that might sound edgy, but thats what DEG is for me. Music that feels just like my soul does in dark times, but also touches it in a healing empowering way. I feel like Kyo is kinda lost to the void. A crazy man as well as a legend. The amount of passion and emotion has to come from somewhere and expressing them that deeply surely has some impact. However the art he brings to stage is something many wouldnt understand. Maybe because they cant feel it, maybe because they dont really listen or they never heard of them. That makes Dir En Grey a band that will always be underappreciated but those who do will know the greatness. Kyo is an artist I cant compare to anyone. Never have I seen someone so passionate.
I love your comment. Thank you for writing this. I wanted to put words together to explain how I feel about this band but… I never really seem to find the right words. You did it brilliantly.
You couldn't have summed them up better! I started listening around the same age and recently came back to see what they're up to and stumbled across your comment. Thanks for picking the words out of my brain!
I feel the same . You may like the Russian band Shortparis , they're also very aesthetic, dramatic , chaotic, crazy lives and the vocalist uses "the opera voice" technique. They're not that deeply painful though and maybe the Russian language may be a frontier since it's more difficult to find translation.
Kyo absolutely has to be one of the most underappreciated front men of all time. Not only from a technical perspective, but he always injects such an incredible amount of pain and emotion into his performances in a way that I've only ever seen a handful of front men project. Edit: Some people seem to have taken objection to my use of the term underappreciated. I stand by it. Is Kyo rightfully respected within the world of Japanese metal and progressive music? Yeah, absolutely. Is he a name your average western metal fan would recognise as they would a name like Mike Patton for instance? Absolutely not. This is what I mean by him being underappreciated.
@@OmkaraHellcore they’re not as popular as bands like The GazettE... I don’t want to judge too harshly or anything but... Why on earth are GazettE more popular than Diru...
@@OmkaraHellcore They are not as well known or recognised by western audiences compared to bands of a similar calibre of talent who are from the US or Europe (totally not a reflection on them, more just the marketability of bands that don’t primarily sing in English).
I have been an avid DIRU fan here and there since about 12..I’m 30 now and reconnecting to my indigenous roots. I feel part of DIRU that attracted me to them is that their singing is very similar to the way some tribes use tone, vocal range, melody and emotion to convey a song. The singer is very much a spirit singer: he embodies the range of the men /women and children lost during that massacre, while he’s actively walking an audience through this cathartic healing angry and sad experience to the other side. Together, they heal in this song. I couldn’t help but also feel pain for my ancestors, an uneasyness for our future, and the sadness of man-made violence. Truly hits different.
Just thinking about the fact that everyone who's seen this performed live said it was a 'near death experience'. This is the epitome of human expression in art, completely transcends all barriers and time.
they are planning a tour through some countries of europe mode of withering to death and uroboros. can't wait to see both concerts! I'm probably gonna cry during Vinushka!
@@Shofixi there have been times like the UROBOROS -with the proof in the name of living...- album where his accuracy was worse off than this, he's far improved here
I don’t even know what he’s saying and I’m just tearing up from the emotion he puts into it. Kyo is one of the greatest vocalists of all time. Top 5 undoubtedly.
This is legitimately one of the most intense pieces of art or human expression I've ever seen in my life. The intensity and emotion... I've only had experiences like this in a religious context, and perhaps this is very much the same thing.
Mucc's lead singer is phenomenal. Maynard James Keenan also incredible. Freddy Mercury. Pearl Jam's Eddy Vedder. Plenty of incredible vocalists out there.
@@TheOriginal_Unaleska Yeah I think everyone I listed, and many more, all have incredible vocal ranges. Not to say Dir en grey's singer isn't amazing too.
Yeah. This is the best live version I ever heard for this song. Kyo's scream, growl, n high note are so damn good. And if you listen it use headphones, you can hear the left side is Kaoru's guitar and the right side is Die's guitar. The guitar riff so damn good also.
This song, even for people who can't understand Japanese, opens so many emotions. This piece of art touches me Every time I hear it. With video even more
I swear seeing them live was so outstanding I wasn't able to make any conversation the next few days. I almost don't believe it really happened, like a strange dream.
I'm listening to japanese music sometimes around 20 years, but I have never heard anything from this band. Until today. I'm so overwhelmed from my emotions after watching this video. Nothing more I could say. I'm speechless!
I was there...and, I've gotta say: this particular track put me in the most lonely, paranoid headspace I've ever experienced. I went for both of the Androgynos days but this one moment had me fearing for my life. No argument on the performance--I've seen them enough times to say this was a paramount show...20-ish years later and look what evolved... keep going!
For me, nothing can express emotion greater than music. And the only music that can achieve it as ingenious as perfection is this one. And the voice that delivers the truth, my truth, will eternally remain his own. Dir en Grey, Kyo, thank you for teaching me how to breathe properly. I will forever remain loyal to you. Loyal to my truth.
If there is one band i HAVE to see perform live before i die, dir en grey is that band. I want to experience the soul-scraping beauty of kyo's artistry in person
This is one of the damndest live performances of all time. Maybe even the greatest. This song, especially this particular instance of it, I find very hard to listen to without tearing up. The band couldn't have done a better job and how Kyo uses his out of this world vocal talent in this particular performance especially is just unfathomably incredible. It's soul-rending, beautiful beyond beautiful and highly cathartic. One can only hope beyond hope there will never be a third Hiroshima/Nagasaki. Without a collection of extraordinarily detached, brain-dead and unfit-for-life people, there won't be.
原子爆弾が落ちていくシーンで目頭が熱くなった。米国は戦勝ムードで人々が歓喜に包まれ、抱き合う人もいる。一方で原子爆弾がゆっくりと落ちていく。落ちていった先には多くの悲しみや怒りや痛みがある。DIR EN GREYが伝えたいメッセージが痛いほど伝わってくる。喜怒哀楽の全てがこのパフォーマンスのなかにある。10年以上DIRの曲を聴き続けているが、このLIVEを観て改めて一生ついていこうと決めた。
Man is wish I knew Japanese fluently because I know I'm missing so much from Kyo's vocals. I can only on hear his melodies and tones but I want to know how he uses them in correlation with the lyrics.
I know right. When you know exactly what he's talking about, the whole song changes with the knowledge. I only read subtitles but damn Kyo sir I'm blown away with how amazing you are with words. Vinushka had always been my fav song of theirs, and I've listened to it without knowing the lyrics and I feel the raw sadness from the song. But after I know bits and pieces of what the song actually means, I feel more emotions from it. Like anger, disappointment, hatred, and others. Just... Wow
Perhaps, but if he can make you feel something, then...I guess he's doing his job! How often do vocalists move us this way? I can catch a little meaning here and there, but his expression definitely crosses that border. So careful and emphatic--at the same time, willing to sacrifice all of his being for one song, when he has at least 10 more to go. Incredible...
You should learn Japanese, then you'll be able to feel this much emotion!! I always feel this song from his lyrics as well! I'm Japanese, that's why though.
That's actually the biggest reason why I'm going to learn Japanese х) Cuse I love the sound of these songs, love the lyrics if I can find them on english for example, but I have a feel of some huge...loss? Maybee. I just miss this understanding, and I кeally need it.
I saw the live last year. They played this song. Though I knew already this song, but the live one is so different. The energy slap your consciousness 🔥
Nunca había visto una presentación tan absolutamente brutal, desgarradora, artística, poética, dolorosa, inspiradora, sorprendente, perfecta y atroz... Dir en Grey no tuvo límites, no los tiene.
Not understanding the lyrics, this is the message that I get from this video: "No nation on earth has ever been nuked on purpose other than us... let alone twice." What a dark, provocative, deeply emotional trip, which is what art suppose to do.
I don't think you're wrong, but I think there's more to it than that, it seems to me that, at least judging by the archival footage they used in the background during the performance as well as in the music video, that they're trying to convey the cyclical nature of violence, at least in the context of WW2. They show footage not only of the atrocities committed against Japan by the Americans, but also of the atrocities committed by Japan during the war (I'm drunk so I could be wrong but I believe there's footage of the Rape of Nanking as well as a newspaper showing a Japanese soldier publicly beheading an allied POW, among a ton of other stuff I can't quite place atm). I want to say that the music video wouldn't have been banned in Japan if they were simply denouncing the nuclear bombings of Japan, that's a fairly common sentiment over there. The message I get, at least from the visuals they've accompanied with the music, is that atrocities leveled against other human beings in response to other atrocities, are still just that, atrocities, and they should be admonished all the same. I could be wrong though, I'm just going off what I know about Japanese history and what the music video seems to be trying to say, I don't speak the language either. If I'm right though, the sheer magnitude of the balls it takes to perform a song acknowledging the wrongdoings of the country they live in, that to this day denies having utterly eviscerated the peoples whose countries they invaded, while also acknowledging that the actions taken against their civilian populace by the Allies was equally disgusting, all while wearing a damn dress in a country that really, really doesn't like it when men do that, is just absolutely insane to me. Damn that got rambly, sorry I'm drunk as hell. You're right though, this is what art is supposed to do.
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea such a thorough, precise, truth, drunk rambling. I did a fucking expose on that song, I got 16 pages lying somewhere (in French, never had the courage to translate it.) But it's essentially conveying the meaning you just describe, so I feel as well.
@@siriusql Haha thanks, that's actually really awesome. When I woke up the next day, I pretty quickly thought back to that post and kind of felt like an idiot for not just looking up the English lyrics before posting that, but honestly I'm kind of glad I tried to interpret it based mostly off the music video and this performance, because it's given me a huge respect for how well they're able to convey their message despite the language barrier between them and a good chunk of their audience. I read the actual lyrics just now (and god damn are they incredible) and I was surprised it didn't really change my interpretation much at all, just gave me more details to consider for the most part. I'm so glad I decided to revisit these guys, I hadn't listened to any of their work since Withering to Death and man, they have really honed their craft. Withering was fantastic but damn their new stuff is something else entirely.
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea man you're in for a trip if you haven't listened since WtD... Uroboros and Dum spiro spero are out of this world, I love every single second of every single song from them, but these two are just, straight out of God's creation. The lyrics can be read in so many ways, it's not necessarily related to the video, it can be read as such, but, yeah, there's a lot of meaning. Also, check SUKEKIYO, it's a side band project by Kyo (lead singer here, surely you know that) and, god do they create good stuff as well (check ADORATIO first even if everything's good) Also there's DECAY and SERAPH (respectively Die and Shinya's side band) Decay is great, if you like rock and roll, and SERAPH promised a bit too much compared to what they delivered. Shinya said he wanted to do something in the tones of Malice Mizer's songs : "Hamon..." and "Regret" style, but... it's not there yet Anyway, those guys are really talented and working musician, so... yeah... love them
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea loll that's cool, and I take your point! After all, Vinushka can be translated as "Little Guilt" or "Little Sin" apparently. If it's correct, then the title may refer to the karmic cycle of their attrocities during WW II. And yet, the nuclear experience was still a tragedy unique to their own..
Vinushka Lyrics kyo I exchange thoughts with the clouds. I hold my breath. Ahh, it's just hard shell you can't see Is that where the bottom is? The shadow burns me. Ahh, I just want to keep forgetting Slip your desires into the ants' nest. Come now, all you have to do now is be reborn again Let tomorrow sleep and peacefulness will turn to you Free yourself and go with your razor sharp emotions Even the twisted flow is the proof that you're alive I invite the tearfully-indulging sorrow The inculated Dogra Magra The pain of the mark and the one and only personality And those colorful eyes all decorated I don't want them anymore Is hypocrisy going to come and take it all away? The lonely red stage at night I dedicate the following to the aspiring leading actor That's where the truth is The small corner of my un-cheatable heart says "I still want to be here" Who can't we forgive? I let them hear my cold voice and I swear I will live with my work I scream with this body of flesh that separates heaven and hell I carve the sins What will be the proof of my existence if it disappears with the wind? "I've stared at the strong shining moon long enough to be bored Can't even turn myself into a werewolf, but just enough to become crazy by the darkness I do not want to sleep because I want to eat the neck. At the age where you just want attention... tonight, I might go crazy for you" Everyone wants to reach out their hand and grab happiness but they just end up becoming the monster that lies deep in darkness The end has already come to life It will take form at zero and will crawl back into the uterus and rot Every time this happens, your faces crumble No one wants to talk about the truth that hurts the ear The suppressed minds Compensate the sins and let life be gone The emptiness of the antithesis becomes the choking and crying land Bury the bones in the common land immersed in thesis. Be burdened by depression. The gritty tsunami takes me away and I smile with bitter tears Couldn't understand the value of things The hanging of the necks at the 13 stairs Seeing people becoming friendly while clapping hands That mixes in with sissy thoughts and hurts others Seeing you like this, it's just too sad Splash of blood, Squashing basic instincts Talk about death I will live with my work I scream with this body of flesh that separates heaven and hell I carve the sins What will be the proof of my existence if it disappears with the wind? No one wants to talk about the truth that hurts the ear The suppressed minds Compensate the sins and let life be gone Because I am evil Is it a sin for me to live?
La habilidad vocal de Kyo es brutal, yo sigo esta banda desde hace más de 15 años, en lo cuales he visto toda su evolución, desde que iniciaron con su estilo visual kei (popular de la época) hasta el día de hoy con su estilo más oscuro. Gracias a ello no pasa de moda esta grandiosa banda porque no se quedan encasillados en un mismo estilo.
Im so thankful for my mom taking me to see them live in my 15th birthday. Such an unforgettable experience. Now i can only wish to see Kyo live again with his new band. gosh, he s a god
good performance but...heavy statement ruclips.net/video/fUk7Z6Ej-n4/видео.html they always throw down at least a few tracks on live releases that overshadow their recorded versions;)
Japan is strict about copyright. If fans are caught taking videos or pictures, they will get thrown out. No one wants to miss out on a such a great concert doing a stupid thing.
I am truly amazed with this! this whole performance was sick! the emotion, imagery, the massage of the song, they nailed it ! and mostly Kyo's range and vocal technic. he can do a lot just in one song! just wow
I'm not Japanese, in fact my country has been occupied by Imperial Japan before. But I feel the sorrow, as they're the only Country that is nuked in the world. Watching this always get me shivering, Heck I even almost cried. I'm a grown a*s men damn...

Some sound more like hope and power, raising from the ashes.
I am aware that might sound edgy, but thats what DEG is for me. Music that feels just like my soul does in dark times, but also touches it in a healing empowering way.
I feel like Kyo is kinda lost to the void. A crazy man as well as a legend. The amount of passion and emotion has to come from somewhere and expressing them that deeply surely has some impact.

Perhaps, but if he can make you feel something, then...I guess he's doing his job! How often do vocalists move us this way? I can catch a little meaning here and there, but his expression definitely crosses that border. So careful and emphatic--at the same time, willing to sacrifice all of his being for one song, when he has at least 10 more to go. Incredible...
You should learn Japanese, then you'll be able to feel this much emotion!! I always feel this song from his lyrics as well! I'm Japanese, that's why though.
That's actually the biggest reason why I'm going to learn Japanese х)
Cuse I love the sound of these songs, love the lyrics if I can find them on english for example, but I have a feel of some huge...loss? Maybee. I just miss this understanding, and I кeally need it.
Suvaran you can find a lot of their songs with English subtitles On RUclips ;)
Not to overstate it, but this is literally a perfect performance.
I saw the live last year. They played this song. Though I knew already this song, but the live one is so different. The energy slap your consciousness 🔥
do you have any videos you could post?
Nunca había visto una presentación tan absolutamente brutal, desgarradora, artística, poética, dolorosa, inspiradora, sorprendente, perfecta y atroz...
Dir en Grey no tuvo límites, no los tiene.
Sabes que generó es este? Está genial
@@andresstivenriveraguzman5518 metal pesado según entiendo.
There’s just something about this song that almost brings me to tears every time I listen to it
I love his unique voice, he plays it as he wants.
Not understanding the lyrics, this is the message that I get from this video: "No nation on earth has ever been nuked on purpose other than us... let alone twice." What a dark, provocative, deeply emotional trip, which is what art suppose to do.
I don't think you're wrong, but I think there's more to it than that, it seems to me that, at least judging by the archival footage they used in the background during the performance as well as in the music video, that they're trying to convey the cyclical nature of violence, at least in the context of WW2. They show footage not only of the atrocities committed against Japan by the Americans, but also of the atrocities committed by Japan during the war (I'm drunk so I could be wrong but I believe there's footage of the Rape of Nanking as well as a newspaper showing a Japanese soldier publicly beheading an allied POW, among a ton of other stuff I can't quite place atm). I want to say that the music video wouldn't have been banned in Japan if they were simply denouncing the nuclear bombings of Japan, that's a fairly common sentiment over there. The message I get, at least from the visuals they've accompanied with the music, is that atrocities leveled against other human beings in response to other atrocities, are still just that, atrocities, and they should be admonished all the same. I could be wrong though, I'm just going off what I know about Japanese history and what the music video seems to be trying to say, I don't speak the language either. If I'm right though, the sheer magnitude of the balls it takes to perform a song acknowledging the wrongdoings of the country they live in, that to this day denies having utterly eviscerated the peoples whose countries they invaded, while also acknowledging that the actions taken against their civilian populace by the Allies was equally disgusting, all while wearing a damn dress in a country that really, really doesn't like it when men do that, is just absolutely insane to me.
Damn that got rambly, sorry I'm drunk as hell. You're right though, this is what art is supposed to do.
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea such a thorough, precise, truth, drunk rambling.
I did a fucking expose on that song, I got 16 pages lying somewhere (in French, never had the courage to translate it.) But it's essentially conveying the meaning you just describe, so I feel as well.
@@siriusql Haha thanks, that's actually really awesome. When I woke up the next day, I pretty quickly thought back to that post and kind of felt like an idiot for not just looking up the English lyrics before posting that, but honestly I'm kind of glad I tried to interpret it based mostly off the music video and this performance, because it's given me a huge respect for how well they're able to convey their message despite the language barrier between them and a good chunk of their audience. I read the actual lyrics just now (and god damn are they incredible) and I was surprised it didn't really change my interpretation much at all, just gave me more details to consider for the most part.
I'm so glad I decided to revisit these guys, I hadn't listened to any of their work since Withering to Death and man, they have really honed their craft. Withering was fantastic but damn their new stuff is something else entirely.
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea man you're in for a trip if you haven't listened since WtD... Uroboros and Dum spiro spero are out of this world, I love every single second of every single song from them, but these two are just, straight out of God's creation.
The lyrics can be read in so many ways, it's not necessarily related to the video, it can be read as such, but, yeah, there's a lot of meaning.
Also, check SUKEKIYO, it's a side band project by Kyo (lead singer here, surely you know that) and, god do they create good stuff as well (check ADORATIO first even if everything's good)
Also there's DECAY and SERAPH (respectively Die and Shinya's side band) Decay is great, if you like rock and roll, and SERAPH promised a bit too much compared to what they delivered.
Shinya said he wanted to do something in the tones of Malice Mizer's songs : "Hamon..." and "Regret" style, but... it's not there yet
Anyway, those guys are really talented and working musician, so... yeah... love them
@@Insanabiliter_In_Linea loll that's cool, and I take your point! After all, Vinushka can be translated as "Little Guilt" or "Little Sin" apparently. If it's correct, then the title may refer to the karmic cycle of their attrocities during WW II. And yet, the nuclear experience was still a tragedy unique to their own..
This is way better than the studio version. Just amazing.
もう人間を超えた神様か菩薩様が観音様かに見える。
美しくてカッコ良くて綺麗で、もう全てが神がかってる。
They have many great songs.
but This Song is too Great.
Too beautiful,Too Emotional...and, too painfull
Only they can write this song.
Vinushka
Lyrics kyo
I exchange thoughts with the clouds. I hold my breath. Ahh, it's just hard shell you can't see
Is that where the bottom is? The shadow burns me. Ahh, I just want to keep forgetting
Slip your desires into the ants' nest. Come now, all you have to do now is be reborn again
Let tomorrow sleep and peacefulness will turn to you
Free yourself and go with your razor sharp emotions
Even the twisted flow is the proof that you're alive
I invite the tearfully-indulging sorrow
The inculated Dogra Magra
The pain of the mark and the one and only personality
And those colorful eyes all decorated I don't want them anymore
Is hypocrisy going to come and take it all away?
The lonely red stage at night
I dedicate the following to the aspiring leading actor
That's where the truth is
The small corner of my un-cheatable heart says "I still want to be here"
Who can't we forgive?
I let them hear my cold voice and I swear
I will live with my work I scream with this body of flesh that separates heaven and hell
I carve the sins What will be the proof of my existence if it disappears with the wind?
"I've stared at the strong shining moon long enough to be bored
Can't even turn myself into a werewolf, but just enough to become crazy by the darkness
I do not want to sleep because I want to eat the neck.
At the age where you just want attention... tonight, I might go crazy for you"
Everyone wants to reach out their hand and grab happiness but they just end up becoming the monster that lies deep in darkness
The end has already come to life
It will take form at zero and will crawl back into the uterus and rot
Every time this happens, your faces crumble
No one wants to talk about the truth that hurts the ear
The suppressed minds
Compensate the sins and let life be gone
The emptiness of the antithesis becomes the choking and crying land
Bury the bones in the common land immersed in thesis. Be burdened by depression.
The gritty tsunami takes me away and I smile with bitter tears
Couldn't understand the value of things
The hanging of the necks at the 13 stairs
Seeing people becoming friendly while clapping hands
That mixes in with sissy thoughts and hurts others
Seeing you like this, it's just too sad
Splash of blood, Squashing basic instincts
Talk about death
I will live with my work I scream with this body of flesh that separates heaven and hell
I carve the sins What will be the proof of my existence if it disappears with the wind?
No one wants to talk about the truth that hurts the ear
The suppressed minds
Compensate the sins and let life be gone
Because I am evil
Is it a sin for me to live?
Watching Dir en Grey performing feels like your in theater with rock genre 🔥, this band is a work of art !!
Dir en Grey's masterpiece. Sounds a lot like a epic combination of the their best old school hit songs.
KYO has arrived at an area where no one can go.
He is a Japanese treasure. forever and ever.
La habilidad vocal de Kyo es brutal, yo sigo esta banda desde hace más de 15 años, en lo cuales he visto toda su evolución, desde que iniciaron con su estilo visual kei (popular de la época) hasta el día de hoy con su estilo más oscuro. Gracias a ello no pasa de moda esta grandiosa banda porque no se quedan encasillados en un mismo estilo.
6:50 give me chills every time I listen, this is insane!!!
この曲は8分以上あって割と長いけど、8分もある曲だと感じたことがない。サビがどこだか分からない。全ての部分が前に出ているけど聴いてて飽きる部分がなく、全体のメロディーの構成がすごい…
物語を聴いている気分。
凄い。かっこいい。心が掴まれる。
Nunca voy a superar este tema, es increible
此処が真実だぁー！！！ の、あと
としちゃん腰にて当てて徘徊してるの笑った笑
Im so thankful for my mom taking me to see them live in my 15th birthday. Such an unforgettable experience. Now i can only wish to see Kyo live again with his new band. gosh, he s a god
「お前のォ！ツラガァオッ！！」のとこの声悪魔すぎる…
5:14
真髄がお客さんにしっかり伝わってる気がする。
This song is a goddam masterpiece. It represents everything that Diru is standing for.
That’s insane that is coming out of one person.
PS that war footage as a American is haunting
Who else on earth is able to flawlessly pull off a song like this???
なんかわからんが、涙が溢れてきた
儚きアンチテーゼ咽び泣く地へと
テーゼに浸る共有に骨を埋めて
憂鬱背負うままざらつく津波に拐われ苦い涙と笑う
価値を見出だせぬ首縊り十三階段 手を叩き馴れ合う人 女々しき思想に混ざり傷付ける そんな君がなんだか悲しすぎる
血しぶく 本能 踏み潰し
死を語る
よくこんな歌詞が出てくるよな……
This is the best song, band, vocalist and performance I ever seen in my life...
merry me for having such a good taste.
@@dr_chinca , OK, come to Ukraine))
Отличный вкус)
Goosebumps even almost 15 year after the song was released. How is this even possible?
Fuck! You reminded me how old I am 😢😂😂😂
@@TBZK I know… Dum Spiro Spero was their new album once. In 2011 🤪
@@gauwoof Fuuuuuuuuuck 🤣🤣🤣😭😭😭😭😭😭
Ugh Kyo's voice is so incredible
京さんはずっと変わらないで居てくれるからありがたい、、
Kyo's best performance of this song since the original Uroboros dvd.
good performance but...heavy statement
ruclips.net/video/fUk7Z6Ej-n4/видео.html
they always throw down at least a few tracks on live releases that overshadow their recorded versions;)
この曲は大きい会場でやった方が迫力が出る
客の声援も曲の一部というか
How tf does anyone has a vocal range like this?! Phenomenal performance
この時のアクロの丘→VINUSHKAの流れはこの場にいた私も流石に声出た
マジかw予想外で尚且つ最高の流れやな
happy 1 million to this live
最高たる才能の持ち主。
いつかこの目で拝みたおしたいです。
コーストファイナルのVINUSHKA出てたけど、やっぱVINUSHKAのベストテイクは自分的にはこっち。でもコーストも凄かった。
このVINUSHKA調子良すぎないかw CD音源よりカッコいいw
ここでVINUSHKA来るとは思ってなかったんだろうな、嬉しいだろうな
If you guys have noticed. No phones were on. So amazing.
Normally at Japanese concerts phones are banned so it creates a more engaging experience
Japan is strict about copyright. If fans are caught taking videos or pictures, they will get thrown out. No one wants to miss out on a such a great concert doing a stupid thing.
Because you get kicked out immediately for taking even a photo in Japan at concerts. So unless they wanna lose that money they aren't allowed.
he has an insane range.. so intense
I am truly amazed with this! this whole performance was sick! the emotion, imagery, the massage of the song, they nailed it ! and mostly Kyo's range and vocal technic. he can do a lot just in one song! just wow
本当終盤で涙出る
Kyo's voice and scream is so good
Это просто превосходно! Зачем ещё слова, когда и так всё ясно?!
Oh damn it...I love this song, and come on Kyo looks gorgeous.
03:22『此処が真実だ〜！！』の部分好き
マジ好き
本当にこの曲歌ってるのが信じられない。
この曲ライブで歌うってすげー。
Dir en grey m'a permis de lire le Dogra Magra évoqué dans cette chanson ( ce chef-d'œuvre !) . Merci !!!
Salut, tu l’as trouvé où? Haha j’ai juste lu le résumé du bouquin mais jamais trouvé x)
I'm not Japanese, in fact my country has been occupied by Imperial Japan before. But I feel the sorrow, as they're the only Country that is nuked in the world. Watching this always get me shivering, Heck I even almost cried. I'm a grown a*s men damn...
化け物がLiveでさらに化け物級のクオリティになってる…！
That's fucking perfection
