Since I missed Band Maids infancy and growth through their first 9 years, I can now experience Neki's full story, and I can look back when it's their 10-year Anniversary.
This is the first time hearing NEK. If you take Band Maid and mix in Scandal, I think this would be pretty much the result. Fantastic solid band, onwards and upwards!
I was at two of their concerts last week in Shimokitazawa and it is amusing that after the show the guitarist, singer and drummer stick around to chat and sign merchandise, but bassist Kanade has to go home as she is on a curfew and has school the next day as she is still 17🤣🤣
I think they have really hit a formula (as familiar as it sounds from one of our favourite pidgeon-grown bands). I'm expecting at least an Anime ending from them in the next 12 months.
I'm gonna respectfully disagree with your criteria. Hooks that stick in your head after one or two listens get old fast. Sure, I can hear something after a long time and admire the moment of melodic/rhythmic genius that made a hit, but for me the instant earworms quickly start feeling like torture. Maybe they're TOO captivating and I can't hear the more subtle stuff going on?
They released a 5 song EP a couple months ago with their previous 3 video releases plus 2 more sons, and this is a new single. Album probably a ways off, given Kanade is still in High School. From what I've heard, when they play live, she has to go straight home. 😅
@@LetsBHonest hey thank you for asking. Honestly, I have been struggling. I fell of the wagon, and haven’t quite been able to stay on. I still eat mostly meat, but haven’t been 100% carnivore for a little while. I keep wanting to restart because it helps so much with my BP, but its been tough with all the get together this time of year. Are you carnivore?
@@WavePotter Aww, I'll be rooting for you! Yes I'm carnivore and I know how you feel though. I got my blood pressure to normal too. I hate taking medication and that was my "why" for doing carnivore. Plus I had 2 friends who had heart attacks recently, one survived, the other did not. Don't beat yourself up too much, you can do it. Believe in yourself...and you're lucky you're a guy cuz us gals have a harder time losing weight. I noticed guys lose faster and much more weight. Two homestead RUclipsr guys lost like 100lbs in like 3 to 4 months. I don't remember their channels but wow, what a transformation. You should look them up, you might be inspired. I'm going to pray for you and root for you!! (((Fighting!!))))

Neki ❤️. They are my favourite discovery of 2024.
I love Nek! (almost as much as I love BAND-MAID)
NEK! are certainly putting out some great music, hope they break through all the bands in Japan. Thanks for the reaction.
So much talent, and the lyrics hit hard, too.
Ya, I am looking forward to this band's growth. Love the song.

Great songs and polished performances by such a young band. What they are missing for me right now is something I call the "Kanamincho Factor"....🤔
They sound great, liked this track right from the off.
Trying hard to remember a melodic line from this song but I just can't. Sure they can play their instrument, but composition wise it is very standard.

At the moment NEK! is not doing anything for me. Koiai is though.
