This song set Band-Maid free with regards to writing their own songs. After this album they never looked back ....and in September they are now their own independent company "Maidit Co., LTD." They call all the shots now and we are so proud of them. One of Kanami's longest solo's here too. This song to is also PRE- Zemaitis, PRE-PRS, PRE-Tama, PRE- BlackCloud sponsorship. They collaborated with The Warning and with Mike Einziger of Incubus. The two songs are on their YT channel "Show Them" and "Bestie"
Yeah, that descending line right there in the second verse (second verse, never same as the first) is so good, they do it twice in a row... because they don't believe that less is more, more is more. But they do it differently each time. Genius.
Thank you for your reaction to BAND-MAID. The girls released a new album on September 25. Among the songs on the album are “BESTIE,” a song co-written with MIKE EINZIGER of “INCUBUS,” and Mexican girl band"The WARNING" There is also a collaboration the collaboration song is “Show Them”. Also, please check out our latest release, “Forbidden Tale”. For reference, these three songs have official music videos.
Yes, this is a great song and the first one they composed themselves and then at most all songs were written by Kanami, she is the genius composer, with the help of Misa, the bassist. And for most of their songs Miku (Rythm guitar, band founder) writes the lyrics. Now you have listened to four rock songs, and always the album versions. But they are better live: I can't wait to see your reactions to Play, Onset, Corallium Moratorium or Real Existence live. But also their slower songs are fantastic (Daydreaming, Memorable, ...). And then there are their acoustic interpretations... You have a long fabulous journey ahead 😊
Plus BandMaiko! This was an beautiful and elaborate April Fools surprise from our Maids! Sung in a Kyoto dialect with 2 videos In traditional kimono BandMaiko presented several reinterpretation of their songs. Gion-Cho was an original BandMaiko song about tge life of a geisha in the Gion-Cho district of Kyoto. Very cool stuff!
Nine years later and its still a great song and has hints of what's to come. Most of their songs are unexpected and not cut/paste and your favorite Band-Maid song will be the last one you listened to. That's what we love about Band-Maid, all their songs are different, all are wonderful and all keep you listening.
I love the look on a perceptive reactor who really GETS Band-Maid... that look that's almost forlorn... like... "What have I gotten myself into? Am I going to get trapped? Is it already too late?" The answer is, fortunately for you , you're unfortunately trapped. 😉
"Why didn't you recommend this to me before?" As we often say, your favorite Band-Maid song is the last one you heard. There's a VERY high chance that you say this again on your next reaction. No matter what song of theirs you listen to.
@Sohum Miku being a professional poker player is one of the myths that gets repeated by fans from time to time. The confusion comes from the fact that she did once come in 2nd place at an open tournament that did allow professional players to compete. Still quite an impressive accomplishment, but yeah, she is very good, but most definitely not professional.
Also, Miku has loved to bet on horse racing for years and is even one of the owners of a racehorse in Japan named Dogma. Speaking of racing, the Japan Racing Pigeon Association should find a way to contact Miku to be their spokespigeon. Po.
Talking about collaborations: Just check the two collaborations from this year: "Bestie" (a quite different song: you can hear the western influences) composed with Mike Einzinger from Incubus. "Show them", the wonderful collaboration with "The Warning" from Mexico.
"Alone" was the first song that Band-Maid's management company allowed them to write, produce, record, and make a musical video with. After "Alone", the band changed management companies and have composed their music ever since. Just recently, the band created their own management company to have total control over their product. The company's new name is MaidIt Co. LLC., a tongue-in-cheek reference to their success as a band wearing maid costumes. They have done two collaborative songs with Western artists, "Selfie" in collaboration with Mike Einziger of Incubus, and "Show Them" a collaborative song and video with The Warning has garner a great deal of praise from their fans. The best way, I think, to describe Band-Maid music is that is "genre-less". The band incorporates many musical styles into their songs. Even using multiple genres in some songs. We Maidiacs (that's what Band-Maid fans call ourselves) simply call their music Band-Maid Music. To us, their music is instantly recognizable for it's composition, seamless transitions between choruses, and the incorporation of creative bass riffs from MISA, their bassist, into their music. Also, the vocal harmonization of the two vocals is incredible.
Kanami (lead guitar) is the best guitar player in the world!!! She plays her amazing solo's in every Band Maid song and all of them are great, because she is real guitar Queen!!! Thanks for your reaction.
Likin’ a lot that you are watching the older ones first 🔥🤘❤️ This is the song which finally set them free. To create their own music -> They became greatest band of our time 🔥❤️ Band-Maid forever 🔥❤️
Love the reaction! Good analysis. This song is really special as it was the first time the label let them write the whole song. And you are in luck with collabs.
Masters of transitions and mixing and matching genres. The wonderful world of Band-Maid. We are so lucky to live in the era of Band-Maid! PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘 BTW...great breakdown and analysis. A milestone song in their history, which others have pointed out.
Live Maid is the Best Maid.... as good as the MV;s are .. these ladies are born for the stage.. any band can fake it in the studio but bringing those same songs live is a whole new experience . fire up any Live performance.. No God, Puzzle, Hate:, Manners /Black Hole... take your pick and have your appreciation of what a Band can do elevated....
“Where have I heard this riff?” Check out “Last Resort” by Papa Roach, back in 2000. It’s a more staccato version of the motif Kanami came up with. Brilliant explanation of how Band Maid transitions between song sections. “Fluid” is probably the best word I’ve heard that fits. They never cut and paste. Everything develops and changes, reminding me of classical music at times. They are very rewarding to listen to. You have the ears and analytical nature. Here are some titles to look out for. They deserve your skills: “From Now On,” OMV, instrumental “Wonderland,” official live, prog/cinematic rock “Blooming,” OMV, post-hardcore punk/pop “Daydreaming,” OMV, uptempo alt rock ballad with THE solo 🤘🏽
When Misa starts playing her solo at the beginning of the bridge (before Kanami’s guitar solo kicks in), you can hear the high pitched feedback buzz (probably from Miku’s guitar) which they chose to leave in there; very interesting. So at that point, all instruments were playing, even though the highlight was the bass.
Thanks for pointing that out. I like the details that make it sound like a one-take effort, but it at this early point it was most likely Kanami doing all of the studio guitars.
3:47 We heard these words a lot within Band maid community. They do have A Song called PUZZLE. No MV for this, but there is Live/ acoustic/ studio. Thanks for More BAND MAID Sir🙏
She came in second in a Celebrity Texas Hold 'Em Tournament. She also not only plays the Horses, but eats them as well. Some prefecture in Japan specializes in Horse like other specialize in Whale or Apples. Oh well, Kim Jung Un just sent cases and cases of canned dog meat to Russia. Not dog food. Dog Meat. So there's that... Weird eh? But yeah, she gambles, is the only one in the band that can drink MISA under the table and she eats dried salmon flakes like an old gezzer. Her band mates say she's really a middle aged man in a girls body, and a pigeon, of course.
There are so many songs to react to but please do "Toi et moi", my current obsession from their new album. It's just an audio track but that's a good thing because when they release a video they will burn down the internet
False. She came in 2nd in a poker tournament once... she is not "ranked 2nd in Japan in poker". The truth is impressive enough, no reason to make things up.
Brief facts about Band-Maid members. Miku (Red Rose/Lyrics/vocals/Rhythm Guitar)- Poker/Horse racing/Magic Spell Time during shows. Saiki (Red Rose/Lead Vocals/Some lyrics)- Sneakers/Trains. Kanami (Lead Guitar/Music)- Self Improvement/Saiki. Misa (Bass)- Barefoot and Drinking on Stage. Akane (Drums)- Food/Eating Banana's on Stage. The wonderful world of Band-Maid. Enjoy the ride. (UK)
Once they were left "Alone" by their record / management companies to create what they wanted, well, look what they did. Alone's somewhat sad, heavy, yet empowering story (topics Miku's known for writing about), against Kanami's up-tempo, complex, yet rockin' music, is quintessential Band-Maid. BAND-MAID is an important influence and contributor to the music industry with a continuous, growing worldwide fanbase. But to me, they are just the best sounding, best writers of hard rock music, and the most fun, joyous group of musicians to come along since the Beatles, imxo! Thx, Sohum!
So, here you are. Their first self-written song. Everything else you've reacted to was written by someone else. After this, you're going to get to some rather unique music from them. And it just keeps getting better! I like how you're mostly going in order on their channel. After a while, you'll get to official lives, which really show just how talented they are. Their lives are even better than their music videos. And I mean their official lives, as they have very high production values. Their music videos are incredible, though.
Not bad for the first band written song, eh? And they've taken everything you saw here and just built upon it. I think you'll experience a lot of "this is my favorite song" moments as you continue exploring their music.
Not the first song they ever wrote, but it is the first one to get recorded to an album. They had been trying to get songs recorded for quite some time before this one did. Still VERY impressive!
@MCLHEF fair point, yes the first song the label accepted. We'll never know how many Kanami submitted before this. But they seized the chance and have made the best of it.
I love when Saiki leans into her alto and Miku sings the octave and this was the first song where I (not a vocalist) switched from just liking it to oooooh and the last track on their new album continues this lovely trend. At least 2 styles in this song alone (pun intended) -- the seamless subtle one at the beginning, then a little punchier 1:36-1:50, back in at 2:15, Miku(!) 5:40+; and also plenty of unison. "Boring" harmonic intervals compared to much of their music, yet so enjoyable. Besides the collabs you'll hear about, they covered a Genshin Impact theme, almost Greensleeves, allowing Kanami to channel her inner Santana, and Misa to color so beautifully outside the lines ruclips.net/video/LrqsaO9Cf2M/видео.html
You should definitely react to some official live videos. "Hate?" is a recent one that seems to get the most recommendations. But for someone new to their music, "Domination," official live is a few years older and as good a place as any to start. Great reaction. New subscriber.
Since it seems like you're going chronistic.. or through their songs from beginning to end, I guess you've come to "just bring it"? You still haven't touched their live-stuff, so I guess live versions of "Don't you tell me" (Yokohama 2023), "Puzzle" (Tokyo Garden 2022(??)) should be next? "Moratorium" (live 2018) maybe too.. but you don't find it in their channel.
Puzzle, did I hear the word "puzzle?" There's your next song--I highly recommend listening to the live electric rock version from early last year at Tokyo Garden Theater and then the live acoustic duet by Kanami and Saiki. Same song, but what an incredibly different treatment.
Well let me tell you about a story about a group named *BAND-MAID* A group of lovely girls who played rock music that thought was dead And then one day *BAND-MAID* went to the record producers And the next thing you know they started writing on their own *Alone* that is the first song they wrote on their own Well the next thing you know *BAND-MAID* is now and free To write their own music as they shouted out with glee They said *Domination* is where you oughta be And they pack up their gear to make history... 🤠 🐎 🐦 🎀
Everyone is going to tell you about the song they did with The Warning but before you listen to the song "Show Them" you should listen to the The Warning which is a band I have been listening to almost as long as Band Maid. This is a great video to start with ruclips.net/video/EzA3SWkeYd8/видео.html they are 3 sisters out of Mexico The Warning are my second favorite band currently ..... right after Band Maid
@johnkryton3210 She is into both horse racing and poker. She is not a professional player as some fans like to think, but she does play in open tournaments sometimes.
This song has a fairly normal verse-chorus structure but the second verse starts very different from the first verse; it's not a copy-paste of the first verse. They do that a lot. The guitar solo is based on the chords of the chorus. Band-Maid's collabs with the Warning and Mike Einzinger are not my favorites because they had to water down their sound IMO. Babymetal has some interesting collabs with Lil Uzi Vert, Tom Morello, Polyphia and Bring Me the Horizon among others. The best Japanese bands sound like nothing you hear in the West. Wagakki Band, Maximum the Hormone, Hanabie, Kroi, Paledusk, Broken by the Scream, UKRampage and many more.
I truly feel sad for you. That sucks that it prevents you from enjoying great music. Growing up I didn't understand the lyrics to half of the American songs I heard so wasn't obstacle for me. They do have a killer instrumental called From Now On on their channel. You might enjoy that.

Simply put....Kanami is a genius
This song set Band-Maid free with regards to writing their own songs. After this album they never looked back ....and in September they are now their own independent company "Maidit Co., LTD." They call all the shots now and we are so proud of them.

Bestie not Selfie
Oop! Old age brain fart.
Billy, you ain't gotta write a gaaawwwddammm book, Holmes.
Real musicians reactions are the best. They also pay attention to the details of the craft.
Kanami (lead guitar) is the best guitar player in the world!!! She plays her amazing solo's in every Band Maid song and all of them are great, because she is real guitar Queen!!! Thanks for your reaction.
Aren't they Beautiful in every way possible?!
Kanami's solo, one of her best, still! And to think this is from when she considered her slow! They never stop improving!
If you are going through their songs in more historical timeline. please check out the next song.
"secret My lips" MV Official. Akane's drums.
This is one of my favourite songs. The harmony between Saiki and Miku makes me feel crazy.
Enjoying your reactions to the Maids. Perhaps it's time for you to delve into the great documentaries on each of the ladies by Ohrenje.
Likin’ a lot that you are watching the older ones first 🔥🤘❤️ This is the song which finally set them free. To create their own music -> They became greatest band of our time 🔥❤️ Band-Maid forever 🔥❤️

BTW...great breakdown and analysis. A milestone song in their history, which others have pointed out.
Thank you, you’re one of a few musicians who really appreciate this particular song. I find this song quote complex as you mentioned.
BM song "Show me" is performed with Mexican Metal Band "The Warning"
Live Maid is the Best Maid.... as good as the MV;s are .. these ladies are born for the stage.. any band can fake it in the studio but bringing those same songs live is a whole new experience . fire up any Live performance.. No God, Puzzle, Hate:, Manners /Black Hole... take your pick and have your appreciation of what a Band can do elevated....
In my mental BAND-MAID Biopic, this song is always the one that plays when they finally start creating their own music.
The Maid's only include what belongs ...🤘
Great review of a banger from BandMaid!
“Where have I heard this riff?”
Check out “Last Resort” by Papa Roach, back in 2000. It’s a more staccato version of the motif Kanami came up with.

They never cut and paste. Everything develops and changes, reminding me of classical music at times. They are very rewarding to listen to.
You have the ears and analytical nature. Here are some titles to look out for. They deserve your skills:
“From Now On,” OMV, instrumental
“Wonderland,” official live, prog/cinematic rock
“Blooming,” OMV, post-hardcore punk/pop
“Daydreaming,” OMV, uptempo alt rock ballad with THE solo
🤘🏽
Great observations!

7:21 ‘I'm just suffocating here

She came in second in a Celebrity Texas Hold 'Em Tournament. She also not only plays the Horses, but eats them as well.

Yeah and the Russians don't like the cans of Dog either! The only ones who ate it did not know what it was. LOL
Band-Maid got you a new subscriber 🫵. I have been a Maidiac since 2017.
There are so many songs to react to but please do "Toi et moi", my current obsession from their new album. It's just an audio track but that's a good thing because when they release a video they will burn down the internet
There's BAND-MAID and then there's errr yeah there's BAND -MAID 👍🍻
💜💛❤💙💚
Milestone!!!!!
Dont tell scotty he doesn't know, n miku is ranked #2 in japan in poker po!
False.
She came in 2nd in a poker tournament once... she is not "ranked 2nd in Japan in poker".
The truth is impressive enough, no reason to make things up.
@DeanF_MIDI I know she came in 2nd that famous u are dead clip , I stand corrected po!
Brief facts about Band-Maid members. Miku (Red Rose/Lyrics/vocals/Rhythm Guitar)- Poker/Horse racing/Magic Spell Time during shows. Saiki (Red Rose/Lead Vocals/Some lyrics)- Sneakers/Trains. Kanami (Lead Guitar/Music)- Self Improvement/Saiki. Misa (Bass)- Barefoot and Drinking on Stage. Akane (Drums)- Food/Eating Banana's on Stage. The wonderful world of Band-Maid. Enjoy the ride. (UK)
The thing with the Maids is... always expect the unexpected, as we maidiacs like to say, its just Band-Maid doing Band-Maid things, good reaction
It has been said that in one single BAND-MAID is enough ideas to fill an album.
Band-Maid: Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Sohum: Ohoo, oh. Ohoo, ah. 🤘😂🎀
Once they were left "Alone" by their record / management companies to create what they wanted, well, look what they did.

@MCLHEF fair point, yes the first song the label accepted. We'll never know how many Kanami submitted before this. But they seized the chance and have made the best of it.
When Saiki listened to this song first, she said "I can't sing this because the key is too low for me."😟
The intro riff is similar to the intro riff from Scotty Doesn't Know by Lustra.
🤘🤘🤘
I love when Saiki leans into her alto and Miku sings the octave and this was the first song where I (not a vocalist) switched from just liking it to oooooh and the last track on their new album continues this lovely trend. At least 2 styles in this song alone (pun intended) -- the seamless subtle one at the beginning, then a little punchier 1:36-1:50, back in at 2:15, Miku(!) 5:40+; and also plenty of unison. "Boring" harmonic intervals compared to much of their music, yet so enjoyable.
Besides the collabs you'll hear about, they covered a Genshin Impact theme, almost Greensleeves, allowing Kanami to channel her inner Santana, and Misa to color so beautifully outside the lines ruclips.net/video/LrqsaO9Cf2M/видео.html
Try AFTER LIFE (OMV).
Collabs to date with Mike Einziger and The Warning.
You should definitely react to some official live videos. "Hate?" is a recent one that seems to get the most recommendations. But for someone new to their music, "Domination," official live is a few years older and as good a place as any to start. Great reaction. New subscriber.
Since it seems like you're going chronistic.. or through their songs from beginning to end, I guess you've come to "just bring it"? You still haven't touched their live-stuff, so I guess live versions of "Don't you tell me" (Yokohama 2023), "Puzzle" (Tokyo Garden 2022(??)) should be next?
"Moratorium" (live 2018) maybe too.. but you don't find it in their channel.
I want to see Band-Maid with Linkin Park, Foo Fighters
Puzzle, did I hear the word "puzzle?" There's your next song--I highly recommend listening to the live electric rock version from early last year at Tokyo Garden Theater and then the live acoustic duet by Kanami and Saiki. Same song, but what an incredibly different treatment.
"Alone" was the 1st "100% Original" Band-Maid song, written by Kanami -the main song writer,.
Miku has greater range while Saiki has more power.
Well let me tell you about a story about a group named *BAND-MAID*
A group of lovely girls who played rock music that thought was dead
And then one day *BAND-MAID* went to the record producers
And the next thing you know they started writing on their own
*Alone* that is the first song they wrote on their own
Well the next thing you know *BAND-MAID* is now and free
To write their own music as they shouted out with glee
They said *Domination* is where you oughta be
And they pack up their gear to make history... 🤠 🐎 🐦 🎀
😁👍🍻
Poker, horseracing, gaming - A woman after my own heart
Everyone is going to tell you about the song they did with The Warning but before you listen to the song "Show Them" you should listen to the The Warning which is a band I have been listening to almost as long as Band Maid. This is a great video to start with ruclips.net/video/EzA3SWkeYd8/видео.html they are 3 sisters out of Mexico The Warning are my second favorite band currently ..... right after Band Maid
I'd like to see Band-Maid with... lets see... how about the only other band that's as good. Band-Maiko! 🎀🎴
Manners . !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and Miku is into Horse Racing.. not poker....
@johnkryton3210 She is into both horse racing and poker. She is not a professional player as some fans like to think, but she does play in open tournaments sometimes.
This song has a fairly normal verse-chorus structure but the second verse starts very different from the first verse; it's not a copy-paste of the first verse. They do that a lot. The guitar solo is based on the chords of the chorus.
Band-Maid's collabs with the Warning and Mike Einzinger are not my favorites because they had to water down their sound IMO. Babymetal has some interesting collabs with Lil Uzi Vert, Tom Morello, Polyphia and Bring Me the Horizon among others. The best Japanese bands sound like nothing you hear in the West. Wagakki Band, Maximum the Hormone, Hanabie, Kroi, Paledusk, Broken by the Scream, UKRampage and many more.
Same problem I have with Ramstein. No matter how good the playing is, I just can't get into music when I cannot understand what is being said. 😕
I truly feel sad for you. That sucks that it prevents you from enjoying great music. Growing up I didn't understand the lyrics to half of the American songs I heard so wasn't obstacle for me. They do have a killer instrumental called From Now On on their channel. You might enjoy that.
