And THAT'S how you do an arena rock song. Endless Story is just... i don't know how to describe it, exquisite maybe?, pure masterclass on how to craft a very powerful-feeling-drive song without sounding bland And their live perfomance on Line Cube Shibuya... my god, i cried like a baby during the whole song and the Budokan reveal afterwards. This band is too good for me to handle, and that's why i love their music so much
I remember standing in line waiting for Band-Maid, I had a conversation with another dude about our least liked song by the ladies, mine was Endless Story! From the moment they played it live til it’s end, I loved it! The audience participation was awesome! Now Endless Story is a favorite! I love it when Kanami scratches her guitar during a full! Great song!
How much cooler is this song after seeing Akane crying during this song in Chicago? It was already a great song, but it's just that much more special because of Ah-chan's emotional reaction. 🥲❤🥁🎸🎶
The Japanese/English thing, it's not so weird. Japanese (like a lot of other languages) uses a lot of "borrowed" words from English. Also, the use of English phrases in limited capacity is pretty common. Sometimes the grammar isn't quite right but you get the idea. Because Japanese is a phonetic language, they can translate the sounds of English words with their alphabet. However, some of the sounds do not exist in Japanese, so that's where you get the accent from. For example, Japanese doesn't have a "th" sound, so it's replace with "su" or "z" sometimes. They also don't have the vowel sound of "uh", like in "the". In Japanese, "the" is translated to "za" (like zah). There's tons of other examples but non-native english speaking Japanese people will tend to have these pronunciation accents because of how it's translated from their alphabet. The other funny thing is, if you were trying to speak English to a Japanese person, they might not understand "the" as you would say it, but they might understand "za".
I do hope that their forthcoming US tour will establish them where they so rightfully belong - at the very top. Never have such an unlikely looking group of young musicians grown into the cleverest rock band in the world, Kanami providing ever more complex, melodic music in a constant stream of musical consciousness, Truly unique.
This was my request - thanks for re-showing it! I had also requested this one from Ryan Mear, so I'm happy to have introduced my two favorite reactors to this great song by my favorite band.
This is the song Band-Maid closed out the Feb 14th, 2020 concert, and it was fantastic, seemed like Miku and Saiki were holding back tears as the went off stage! Just a fantastic song, again, no surprise from these amazing ladies!
Relax people! This was before Ryan Mear's "Shut up! Kanami is speaking" slogan took off, so yeah.... Wave wasn't following that mantra at this point! 😅
Though I love almost everything that these five phenomenally talented beautiful musicians put together. I'll take the masterful melodic over the chaotic any day of the week. Another gem that so many overlook. By these incredibly gifted and talented. Future Rock and Roll Legends !
I tend to agree with you. Though I enjoy and appreciate all their compositions, it seems that there has been a progression to faster paced songs. And maybe that is just the path they want to take. I just hope they realize that bpm does not equal higher quality or represent a higher level of skill. Like you, my favorite stuff is their older, more melodic songs. (I will say though that the teaser song bites from their recent breaking news YT vid sound pretty epic!) I do appreciate that their is a melodic base to all their music though!
You have reacted to an American artist who switches between English and Japanese, actually, the rapper Calliope Mori. Actually a lot of English-speaking v-tubers are bilingual in Japanese, or are able to learn it phonetically for a song. As for regular bands, though, no I can't think of a Western band who's bilingual in Japanese either.
In 60 AD Apostle Saint Andrew traveled to the area of Kiev, preached, and said, one day a great city would be built here with many churches to the glory of God. Today there is a church to Saint Andrew in Kiev. The peoples in the area were Slavic. Kyi, Shchek and Khoryv, three brothers and the sister Lybid founded Kiev in 482 AD, Kiev was named after the older brother Kyi. Kiev the older brother was King. Herodotus wrote that Hercules had founded this land. The Rus were Viking tribes that settled peacefully in Kiev as far back as 750 AD with the Slavs there, 400 years before Moskva existed. The name Russia, coming from the city Moskva, has no connection to the RUS. Russia coming from Moskva started with Batu Kahn much later as a vasal under Mongolian rule. All the early Czars were Mongolian and of no connection to the RUS. The Rus were with the Slavs to the south in Kiev. Moskva were Finnish Urgic Tribes; Mosk means cow and Va water, which are Finnish names. There was no RUS there. The ethnic background of Moskva is Finnish-Urgic and Mongolian. The Rus developed the religion, city Kiev, alphabet, churches, and had its saints. The founder of Kievian Rus (800) or the Rus was a Viking named Askold or Oskold (Norse) from Sweden; not Oleg as in the Russian story. Kievian Rus exists long Before Novgorod and Oleg’s arrival there. Askold is the Slavic name. Oskold, the first King of Kievian Rus was in Kiev before Oleg in Novgorod. Oskold had 200 ships and 20,000 warriors. Oskold was baptized in Constantinople (128 years before Volodymyr) and sent the first bishop back to Kiev. Oskold and Dir were the first Dynasty of Kievian Rus. Askold rules from the 40-60s and Dir to the 80s. Askold is buried in Kiev and the first Kievian Christian King & Dynasty. Oleg followed coming from Sweden through Novgorod and was a pagan. Russia as named today started in the city of Moskva over 400 years later after Kievian Rus or Rus. From Kiev, the capitol of Rus, Kievian culture was spread, much like the Greeks Hellenized the known world, or like the British anglicized the world by the English language. This process does not make Moskva to become RUS in as much as Persian are not Greek. How we are misled by a name; Russia. The capitol of the RUS has always been Kiev. There is no other RUS and no RUS in Moskva. Many say Ukraine began recently; but the culture of the RUS is Kievian RUS, both culture and ethnic background. Ukraine is a name given by Poland meaning outer lands. The land of the RUS before the Mongolian invasion was very large. The name RUS is a Norse name which means men that row; there are no men that row in Moskva. So Moskva adopted the name Russia while being a Mongolian vassal, essentially traitor to the RUS; and all the Czars were Mongolian-Finnish. The Culture of the Mongolian was centralized power, and that cultural imprint was passed on to present day Russia. Ukraine’s real name should be Kievian RUS, or Kievskarus! Russia began in Moskva by Batu Kahn and Novgorod conquered much later, still no connection to the Rus. Putin & Lavrov should be ashamed of themselves, the USSR was an occupation; it never had the status of a sovereign state and due process of law that would be associated with a free society. Even today the mentality of the gulag exists. There is no freedom of press and speech, people are arrested for speech, there is no due process of law, and the religion is state run making it totalitarian theocracy. As such, it did not deserve to exist in a free world; and history has shown such totalitarian organizations fail over time and author in many gulags. The true culture of Russia is Finno-Ugric and Mongolian, having nothing to do with the RUS (Kievian), expect borrowed as in the sense of Hellenized or Anglicized "forms" as a comparative reference. The centralized form of Russian politics is a very Mongolian imprint on culture. The actions of Putin seem to be another Mongolian invasion of Kiev; here I suggest as to the correct metaphor. I believe so. Putin & Lavrov insistence to have purview over eastern Europe also seems like paying tribute to the Mongolian Horde. Moskva started as an agglomeration of Finnish tribes, combining a Finnish name meaning cows water and developed by Mongolian culture. Mosk means cow and Va means water. The RUS are men that row, Vikings, Norse, established Kiev 400 years before (750 AD) Moskva even thought to exist. The name Russia for current nation is totally inappropriate. The current Russia started in Moskva; how misleading is the name Russia coming from Moskva that has no connection to the RUS. All the lands should be returned to Kiev; the West of Russia to Finland, and the East to Mongolia. Russia’s place on the globe appears as a temporary aberration in my view. To use threats of Nukes publicly strikes at the heart as adolescent behaviour; surely any nation or person that issues such threats and being an ally to such while not even having war imposed on them is not fit to rule. This would include allies of Russia. Oh yes, I remember, Russia didn't invent the bomb, they stole it in the 1940's and gave it to Kurchatov. Russia struggles with an identity crisis since its beginnings unoriginal to the ethnic groups. Its errors are numerous, 50 million killed by Stalin in WW2, allied to the Nazis to kill the Poles for their defeat in WW2, Holodomor where millions of Ukrainians were killed and grain stolen, and constant antagonist with Europe. We even have the Holy Mother announcing Russia’s errors at Fatima. Russia is a Mongolian culture and all the first Czars were Mongolian and Batu Kahn is the author. Oskold was the grandson of Ragnar the king of Sweden, his name is old Norse and spoke old Norse, the name Rus is old Norse, he settled peacefully in Kiev and the Slavs made him king, he brought Christianity to Kiev with his son dir...his burial mound is where St Nicholas church is built, Oleg wasn’t even in Novgorod when this happened, and Oleg is not a Rus nor old Norse name. The Slavs called Oskold the name Askold. After came Dir, Oleg was a pagan who assassinated Dir, Oskold becomes the first dynasty...later when the line of kings get to Vladimir, he is captured at a trading post by the Mongols, the post is called Moskva, and the king killed. Moskva as a city was a Mongolian invention, and Novgorod becomes a part of that Russia by conquest, although having nothing to do with the Rus. Oskold line is Ragnar, ironside, Oskold from the King of Sweden Ragnar. Oleg is via Rurik coming much later. The accounts of Oskold are within the time, Al Mamun an Arab writer of the time wrote of Oskold, the Russian chronicles come hundreds of years later. In much the same way accounts of relevant history are better understood by those of the times, much like the Bible, dating to the original times makes the account authentic. The Russian chronicles are merely a tale and inaccurate
BTS is a K Pop boy group, they're very good as are so many others, BUT! my favorite of all K Poppers is MAMAMOO. If you never heard them you should give them a try. Rosie may know them.
Japanese bands use English and Japanese both maybe because Japanese is too percussive and not as fluid? For Japanese bands to play rock n roll/metal, using English in parts probably is inevitable.

This is their arena anthem intended for audiences to sing along with. It filmed was on volcanic island south of Tokyo.
And THAT'S how you do an arena rock song. Endless Story is just... i don't know how to describe it, exquisite maybe?, pure masterclass on how to craft a very powerful-feeling-drive song without sounding bland
And their live perfomance on Line Cube Shibuya... my god, i cried like a baby during the whole song and the Budokan reveal afterwards. This band is too good for me to handle, and that's why i love their music so much
And then Chicago happened.....
Kanami's solo is icing on the cake.
Rosie now pickling up on stuff before Wave! This is a great song....I mean..... of course, but it's such a huge song!
I remember standing in line waiting for Band-Maid, I had a conversation with another dude about our least liked song by the ladies, mine was Endless Story! From the moment they played it live til it’s end, I loved it! The audience participation was awesome! Now Endless Story is a favorite! I love it when Kanami scratches her guitar during a full!

How much cooler is this song after seeing Akane crying during this song in Chicago? It was already a great song, but it's just that much more special because of Ah-chan's emotional reaction. 🥲❤🥁🎸🎶
The final words from Saiki before this song during LINE CUBE SHIBUYA is so heartwarming.

Make sure you all sing at the end 'You are beautiful' to your favourite maid when they play this on tour if your lucky enough to have a ticket !
I have three tickets for October 17. One for me, one for my friend, and one for someone who needs it.
@@randymcmillen647 Lucky extra someone. I live in the UK so no concert for me :( I live for your fan cam footage !

Hope you get to a point to watch the entire "Line Cube" gig... Ill tell you a great story about this song then ;)

I can’t believe you just stopped in the middle of Kanami’s solo…bad boy!

Shocking behaviour from Wave. He's one of the Gaijin Guys so he should know by now, "Shut up, Kanami is speaking".🤷♂️
@@GaryHolloway-810 It was strange, I thought maybe he will go back to the start of the solo, but no. I think he had a squirrel moment.
