This melody of that epic breakdown is actually a traditional Japanese folk song called Sakura Sakura. It’s a song literally every Japanese person would know. And they turned it metal. Hell yeah
It works both ways. For Japanese people it's a familiar tune and for everybody else it's something new :) It's not only the breakdown it's the entire song.
When I first heard the 'Sakura Sakura' break down in this song I almost cried!! Before Babymetal, I knew very little Japanese Music, but I had heard 'Sakura Sakura' many times throughout my life for various reasons, so it hit me hard! Still one of my most favorite Babymetal songs!! Put your Kitsune UP!! Po!
@@dicodec I don't know about younger people, but for most older or middle aged Americans the melody from Sakura is the first Japanese music you run into. Most won't know the title of the song though.
Another use of the tune is the children's game, "Kagome Kagome." I'd have to compare lyrics to know if it was Sakura, Sakura or Kagome, Kagome, but I'd wager the style fits the second more. In the game, one child is a demon that has to guess the person standing right behind them while the other kids chant the song and walk in a circle. If they guess right, that kid is the new Oni. The origins and lyrics of the game are widely debated, and have a similar kind of folklore to Ring Around the Rosey, ranging from the children's game to a pregnant woman getting pushed down stairs or a death row convict.
Megitsune is sort of a definition of BABYMETAL. It's got everything; it's heavy, it's catchy, it's cute, it's brutal, it's very japanese and has great lyrics. My favorite song from them!
When she pulls out the knife from the mic and says (Otome wa nametara ikan zeyo.) "Maidens shouldn't be underestimated." know that's METAL... Its times like this when you realize three kawaii Asian girls are more METAL than you !!!

@@drunkenvibrato3612 it's great performance, but that one from Sonisphere has a great historic value if someone give them some facts about that performance before reaction
look and listen The Awadame Fever Clio they must listen to is the one with the Kami Band Intro, starting with Mikio (who isn’t on the usual clip where they Intro Rondo)
BABYMETAL - IJIME DAME ZETTAI live sonisphere a legend was born there, if you read in the description there is something interesting going on thank you 👍👍🔥🔥
This is the song I heard back in late 2013 and been a fan ever since. Have to hear them every day. This song live is awesome. You still ain't heard nothing yet on your journey. You just at the tip of the iceberg of Babymetal.
Yeah Babymetal was formed basically around Su as a vocalist. No rain No rainbow from the Legend S concert is probably the best example of pure singing. Though for the iconic stuff It’s usually headbanger from legend 1997 Ijame Dame Zetti from the sonic sphere festival in Great Britain And Babymetal Death from 97 as well
Ah I see. Death will be released sometime next week. Headbanger will follow suit I believe. Not quite sure when we are doing No Rain No Rainbow. Ijame I've got on the list so hopefully we can do that one soon.
Dicodec it’s cool do things as you feel. I see you have a schedule but giving the recommrndations is important as there are videos out there of varying quality and some are compilation vids. I don’t recommend those unless you have to because they can be jaring. If your interested there is a lot of content out there but still do things at your own pace
@@dicodec If you already done Su's then your should check out Moa's version of Headbanger as well, where SU sings the first half then Moa singing the second half It's hard to find on youtube but you can find it on vimeo
pretty much everything Babymetal does is brilliant. They don't do their own guttural sounds, it's a backing track, and more recently for the song Distortion, they got Alissa White-Gluz from Arch Enemy for the album version. If you want to hear a Japanese band with a girl doing guttural sounds, Merging Moon's song Greyen is VERY good.
Everything we've heard so far hasn't shown us other wise so we agree with you! That's pretty epic I loved Alissa in The Agonist! Oh damn, we would love to check that out!
@@mr_ozio Ladybaby, post Ladybeard is nothing on the guttural side. You want a cute, small, Japanese girl to do the gutturals...only option is Yuna from Passcode.
Great reaction to a great song - still one of my absolute favourites (and probably my top favourite most days). Kitsune is a fox, Megitsune means vixen or female fox. In Japanese mythology foxes are devious creatures that can take human form in order to deceive, but here they are singing about how women throughout history have had to hide their true feelings and to appear strong despite maybe crying inside, so they have put on their make up and a brave face - not to deceive but to please - so they are not kitsune, they are megitsune. It explains the masks and the end pose as well.
No lie, I scroll around all these react videos looking for your comment to get more info. I was pretty sure I heard this before but had to verify by seeking your inevitable comment out.
Megitsune is my fav song from all of Babymetals repertuar :D But I prefer it live, she sounds much better live (on live concerts whole crowd goes left and right like a wave) :) You should try watching Babymetal on AMR`s channel, because he has eng subtitles so you`ll know what she is singing (and they`re made properly)
Great reaction! Gimme Chocolate made me "eh, it's weird" but Megitsune made me a fan. Megitsune is one of my favorite Babymetal songs and I believe to be the most quintessential song by BM. For recommendation, I suggest you check out Akatsuki Black Night to really get a grasp of Su's vocal chops. Great job guys.
Playing Babymetal loud is how it's meant to be ! :-) Surprisingly as Babymetal's main drummer said: it's actually a slower song compared to a lot of other Babymetal songs. A nice song for him to get into the groove between fast songs. LOL Su-metal says this is one of the songs she finds hardest to sing, it's also Babymetal's most performed song !
@@dicodec One reason could very well be (she didn't mention it for this song, but did for an other): Megitsune was created early in Babymetal existence and her voice changed over time as she grew up, but they kept the song mostly the same. So that makes it hard for her now to sing it. Unlike songs that were created later that fit her more mature voice better.
You guys should check "Ijime, Dame, Zettai!" (Sonisphere 2014) It's a song about anti bullying, and the most important is, they performed it in front of nearly 60,000 metalheads that even didn't have a single clue about what BabyMetal are and they still killed that stage! It was the last song and you can see how the crowd there yourself The moment of the worldwide journey started there.
Right after lunch your reaction to Megitsune came up 😃What a nice saturday. Sore Sore Sore Sore!!!🦊🤘 If you like Su-metals vocals than try another Solosong like Akatsuki (also from Budokan like Rondo of Nightmare) or try Tamashii No Rufuran (only performed once at her birthday).
Hey man..great reaction..u should really listen to su solos if u like her voice..try akatsuki or no rain no rainbow..i think u would like it ..keep up a good work guys 🤟🦊🤟
..BABYMETAL have won so many awards,,one particular I personally admire is Su-Metal as Loudwire 6th Annual Music Awards - Rock Goddess of the Year 2016 -
I've been a Babymetal fan ever since they first played at Rock in Vienna 2015 and only just discovered your channel - I have to say you guys are dope af! It's awesome to "relive" my BM journey from 5 years ago through your absolutely genuine reactions - thank you! PS: I hope you are not skipping their live performances, in my opinion the vocals and the instruments hit a lot harder in their live gigs
@@dicodec While I agree mostly with the original comment here by niikon, I would say only watch any performances from Glastonbury for the dancing. The audio the BBC did for the show recording was complete garbage...like wet, hot, dumpster fire garbage. It was a pop festival that invited a metal band. They had multiple issues with the audio setup as well: They didn't mic up the second kick bass, and at least one of the girls' headset did work properly at one point. I caution watching anything from Glastonbury to anyone and everyone when it comes up.
Nice reaction!!! Welcome to the deep foxhole!! "Megitsune" is one of the お祭り=Omatsuri(festive) metal. Other Omatsuri metal are "PA PA YA" and "oh!majinai" and "DA DA DANCE". "BxMxC" is another one of those songs that gets you excited. However, since this is a new song, I recommend reviewing a song from the same period as the one I've reviewed first. For example babymetal death giveme chocolate akatsuki headbanger ijime,dame,zettai(Live at Sonisphere) catch me if you can All of BM's songs are a different type of song, and they are more highly regarded for their live shows and festivals than their music videos. I'm looking forward to your reaction video to the next BABYMETAL song. Put your Kitsune🦊 up! from japan.
You guys should react to their song “Onedari daisakusen” which Moa and Yui sing, only the two girls at the sides. When only the two of them sing, they’re called Black BabyMetal, their duo name. Is a really fun song. Thanks for reacting to BabyMetal 😊
in the breakdown Sumetal is singing A fox A fox I am a female fox Women are actresses not to mention the melody is a metal version of Sakura, sakura basically the most quintessential Japanese song. This song was released when Sumetal (the middle singer) was 12. It is a song about growing up into womanhood and what was going to be expected of her as a Japanese woman, which by in large still hold to the traditions of subservience to the husband. It's about how she felt that her life was going to be an act and not really genuine. We are not deceiving, we're doing our job. it's a very deep song that many miss because of the aggressive beat and the fun dances.
Migetsune turned me into a Babymetal fan the vocal range of Sumetal is insane and the growl part still sends a chill down my spine and the instrumental work is incredible i've been a fan for a long time and i still can't believe how awesome they are\m/^_^\m/
What I love about Megitsune is that as Suzuka has grown and her voice matured, the track went from a cutesy metal to just flat METAL. This is by far one of my favorite songs to hear live.
Tip: Always react the live versions of BabyMetal songs, as they are much cooler to watch than studio clips. The energy of the crowd, presence of stage, arrangements of the band among other things make the experience much more cool. BTW is not a criticism, just a suggestion, your react was great!
Thanks man! We welcome criticism my dude so don't hold back on us haha. For this one someone actually reccomended we do the music video so we went for it. The next two however will be live. 🤘
With Megitsume and Karata I would make an exception as the context of the videos adds to overall song and helps make the live performance more understandable.
Megitsune is one of the signature songs by Babymetal. If I am not mistaken this recording was made in 2011, when Moa and Yui were not yet 12 year old. Su-metal was barely a 13 year old, appointed here to be the chosen one by the fox god.
'It'd be great if it was one of the girls doing the gutterals' 'I'm sure there's a Japanese band out there who do that' Broken By The Scream - Koi ha Otome no Nakidokoro. That band are cute girls, synth, heavy as fuck music and 2 of the girls actually scream. They're kinda like Black Dahlia Murder mixed with BABYMETAL, you should do a reaction to the video! And yes it's 100% the actual girls screaming, as hard as that will be to believe aha.
@@Rina-eg7zw How do you know, that they use backing tracks? The growls that Io uploads on her twitter seem legit enough and watching their live performances you will recognize how shes exhausted towards the end and the growls get weaker. On another note: BBTS is exactly what I hoped for when I first got to know Babymetal and finally it caved its way into existence.
This band is the apex of music, made to have fun and make you forget bad things, vibrate and feel the energy, for me it's the greatest band in the world!
So Eric this is your favourite one now, right everyone says that until they listen to the next one if anyone asks me I just say all of them, O I just looked at what you are reacting to next "REALLY" roll on Tuesday looking forward to seeing your reaction to that one.
This just goes to show how much talent these girls have start out that young and kill it the way they did you won't see that with any other artists especially ones that young
@@dicodec so not saying us doesn't have any good bands but you don't see the level of professionalism and energy from band's in the us especially ones this young the amount of time and energy the put in to there shows definitely shows and not only that but the theatricals the put in to there shows is unmatched and how many groups out there can captive you despite the language barrier there is I don't know very many they definitely put 100 percent in to everything they do
Great reaction guys!! I recommend you to react to "iine" it's a mindblowing song from their 1st album or Elevator Girl from their last album that song is one of the heaviest there's an english version but i prefer the japanese version!!
@@dicodec - The music video was released in June 2013. So i think 14-15 is probably right for their ages. For Doki Doki Morning the music was recorded a year before the music video was released. So they were probably 13-14 when they recorded the vocals. But they had a whole team of adults making the songs for them. All they had to do was sing them. It's not something they couldn't handle.
great reactions guys. I think no one has recommended this one before. But you guys should definitely react to "Babymetal - Sis. Anger". That song its heavy af
Suzuka and one of her older sister Himeka went into singing career very early. Himeka was in one of the most significant idol group in Japan, Nogizaka46. But she didn't stands out in the group since the group is filled with dozens of talented young girls and also due to a few years of bad health condition. Himeka is now away from show business and been studying and working in counseling.
5:05Everyone translates "Shouldn't be underestimate" ,but it's a literal translation, it's more dirty and brutal way of saying in Japanese, this is a line that overpower the opponent. Su is saying "Don't give a fuck" if I translate. from Japan
love this song its my jam thanks you guys ive watch you guys for a bit and now im hooked so clicked tha subscribe and bell button thx your great have a great weekend
@@dicodec there are Yui and Moa solos as well. They are older (I think they performed them when they were 12ish) but really good. Yui's is called "Chokotto Love" Moa's is" Love Machine"
It's the song that converted me I know bands don't want to remake the same song but I love the sound of traditional Japanese instruments on this I wish they had a couple more song that used them
Thanks for reacting to my request. You just earned a subscriber for keeping your words. Great reaction. I know you have a Long list but if you are falling into the fox hole (which I presume that is gonna be sometime soon) you might wanna check out one of Su’s solo. Baby metal - akatsuki live version is the best!
Glad we were able to get to it! For sure we do have that one on the list so it will happen. Not quite sure when though. It really shouldn't be too long though.
Another great one. I first heard them 2 years ago and thought just another gimmicky band. As I explored and learned more I think they are one of the greatest bands in the world. They have a heck of a catalog and appeal to audiences around the. When you can't understand what they are singing and still like them that says a lot. I highly recommend learning the English translation of the lyrics because the meanings are pretty impressive. I am deep in the fox Hole 😂. 🤘🦊🤘.
Yup yup was a big fan if the intro in this one. Really well produced song. Had a similar experience with them at first. Thanks to our viewers we've come to I understand alittle better what they're all about and have nothing but the upmost respect for them.
Guys, i'm surprised that you just discovered babymetal 1 year ago. I will recommend you another great japanise band called Demetori, give it a chance. You can begin with a song called "Mysterious Mountain" for example
Sokoninaru have just (2020-Jul-12) uploaded a cover of Megitsune to their RUclips channel. They play it very straight, including all of the vocal elements. Search: BABYMETAL『メギツネ』 sokoninaru そこに鳴る
Hey, if you guys don't know them could you react to Versailles? If you have a LOT of time go with Faith and Decision which shows their true musicianship. Otherwise Masquerade would be a good choice too 💚 I think you will really like them!
Oh dope! Were are down for it. There is just something about having those traditional Instuments and mixing them with metal that really makes it the whole thing sound full and amazing.
This was the first Babymetal song to really click for me. I think Gimme Chocolate was the first to blow up stateside, but I kinda blew it off because the mixing on the original video was frankly shit. Then Megitsune came out and blew my tiny little mind. Hard to believe they were like, 12 and 14 when this came out.
Dope! Gimme chocolate was actually the first song I heard as well. Megitsune is ridiculously good. It is not when you realize that they are in their 20s now haha.
I see a lot of people saying to react to only live stuff from them. I say do what you want, but the music videos are usually pretty good. If nothing else, they are entertaining. Often times, they give you context for what you see in the live performances. I suggest maybe doing a reaction to both a music video and then a live performance in the same video. I would recommend checking out the music video for "Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!" and then the live version at Legend 1997.
It's been pretty inconsistent when it comes to that. So maybe that might be a solution for that. It would be a pretty long video though haha. Dope we've got Headbanger already filmed and ready to go. That one we watched the live.
@@dicodec Yeah, there's a lot of differing opinions on it. Most people say live, which is 100% true, as you've seen, they are incredible. I like the videos because most are from when they started out, so you see how young/little they were compared to now, but also many of them are very well done. Perhaps hit up the "Headbanger" video later, because there is one thing from it that you should see and get some context to before you jump into "Death", unless you've already done that one.
Yeah the lives are really dope! The crowd interaction really give even more hype to the performance. Yeah we saw Death live as well. That one was crazy haha.
@@dicodecYap dude, i like yours reactions ! Do it more ! Babymetal it's a cleary live performance band, but im babymetal fan boy so ... haha thx dudes for your reactions!
2007 - 2017 was the golden age of both J-pop and J-rock. Too much great stuff for the world to absorb at once, people will be talking about this music for decades to come.
Hey guys, nice content, i've been fan of MTH since 10 years ago, and Babymetal & Band Maid since 5. I recommend Dir en Grey - Vinushka, another fucking awesome japanese band, give it a try.
Love guys reactions entertaining is always you have to say this is one of my favorite songs by then the breakdown it's just totally sick and when she pulls a knife microphone I need one of those anyway hope you all being safe the song is epic for sure
The Japanese sounding string instrument could be a shamisen? It's the string instrument the band are playing in the back in the video. I believe you can also hear it in Onedari Daisakusen, a BLACK BABYMETAL (Yui and Moa duo) song, but don't quote me lmao
Female Japanese death voices, include Passcode, Galmet, Dazzle Vision. Taiwan’s Chthonic singer has said he wished he was invited to do growl/screams for BabyMetal, but basically nobody knows who recorded them...
@@dicodec The No Rain, No Rainbow performance is from early 2018 so she's 20 or 21 at that point. I think she was 14 when they recorded this video. And yeah, it's a cool instrument. Takes a ton of skill to get good though.
Alright so check that performance out?.....got it! It's really cool, it just adds something unique to the mix really makes the guitars pop in a way. It does look like it would take some work to get it right.
Okay, did you pick on that Su has the Mike/Knife in her hand for the entire video. The girls have said the dancing was the most strenuous they had to do. They still do it in concert.
The funny thing is that they were quite young when this was made, and in the commentary for the track they recall the band members, scary makeup and all, playing with marbles with them in between takes which must've been such an odd sight with the contrast
Good stuff! You will constantly get comments that live BABYMETAL is best BABYMETAL. It's often true, because the studio effects are turned down and the guitars cranked up - makes it easier for metal folks to handle. There's also the crowd element. However, there are a few tracks where the studio version / MV is an essential first watch. 'Megitsune' benefits from the studio production, everything cranked up to 11 and the knife scene in the video. The other tracks where the official video should be done first are 'Doki Doki ☆ Morning' (first video, very young) and 'Iine!' (the transitions are more extreme). The opposite is true for 'BABYMETAL DEATH', where you really have to see the Legend 1997 live version. If you want to see idols handling the harsh vocals, I'd point you towards PassCode's 'Taking you out' MV and if that's not hard enough for you try something from Broken By the Scream. There are plenty of Japanese bands doing interesting things with vocals. Try 'Vantias' by DIMLIM, or some DEVILOOF if you want to go extreme.
Thanks so much for breaking that down for us! This is why we love you guys. Sweet, so Death live and Doki Doki as well as Line MV....got it! I've got those bands on our list. Shouldn't be long long before we react to them. 🤘❤ -Eric
@@dicodec Just for clarity, the full song title is 'BABYMETAL DEATH' - you need both words for the pun - and the specific live performance is from the Legend 1997 show. And although it's kinda fun when the mistake happens, I'll point out that it is 'iine' not 'line'. That's double ' i ' and you say it like 'ee-neh'. It's an expression of approval - you'll see thumbs-up gestures in the video. Hopefully that's not a spoiler.
You guys should look for Wagakki Band. Tengaku is a song I'd recommend. They're a metal band but with traditional Japanese instruments too. This song I've recommended even has a flute solo!
I don't know if it's true but apparently the "otome ga nametara Ikan zeyo" is a reference from a old Yakuza movie where the daughter of a triad chief says that. You can heard it at the end of the trailer. The movie is called "onimasa" Sorry if anyone already mentioned it.
With babymetal the way to go is Live! My recommendations: -Headbanger live (in legend of 1997) -No rain no rainbow (live at legend S) -Line! Live -Yava live -Ijime dame zetai Live -Akatzuki live
Not sure if this was intentional for the music video, but I always imagine the playful bright color Su persona is singing the melody and black and white maiden Su persona is singing the lower harmony in the backtrack. (This also kinda shows the intention of the lyrics.) Or, am I just looking in too deep and this is just a happy coincidence?
FULL BABYMETAL COVER IS OUT NOW!

Great reaction to a great song - still one of my absolute favourites (and probably my top favourite most days). Kitsune is a fox, Megitsune means vixen or female fox. In Japanese mythology foxes are devious creatures that can take human form in order to deceive, but here they are singing about how women throughout history have had to hide their true feelings and to appear strong despite maybe crying inside, so they have put on their make up and a brave face - not to deceive but to please - so they are not kitsune, they are megitsune. It explains the masks and the end pose as well.
Dude, thank you so much for breaking that down for us. It all makes sense now! Really cool.
No lie, I scroll around all these react videos looking for your comment to get more info. I was pretty sure I heard this before but had to verify by seeking your inevitable comment out.
@@Johng915 Haha, thanks - I try to be consistent.
Hail to the Metal Queen. Also great reaction.
Thank you! Ah yes, The Queen and her Kami Band🤘
Dicodec you’re welcome
Megitsune is my fav song from all of Babymetals repertuar :D But I prefer it live, she sounds much better live (on live concerts whole crowd goes left and right like a wave) :) You should try watching Babymetal on AMR`s channel, because he has eng subtitles so you`ll know what she is singing (and they`re made properly)
It is a really dope song! I can't imagine the energy of this song live. Oh snap that would help greatly. Thanks for the heads up!🤘
Great reaction! Gimme Chocolate made me "eh, it's weird" but Megitsune made me a fan. Megitsune is one of my favorite Babymetal songs and I believe to be the most quintessential song by BM.
For recommendation, I suggest you check out Akatsuki Black Night to really get a grasp of Su's vocal chops. Great job guys.
Wow thank you! We got that one down on our list. It'll be out soon chief.
Playing Babymetal loud is how it's meant to be ! :-)
Surprisingly as Babymetal's main drummer said: it's actually a slower song compared to a lot of other Babymetal songs. A nice song for him to get into the groove between fast songs. LOL
Su-metal says this is one of the songs she finds hardest to sing, it's also Babymetal's most performed song !
Haha you're right but we legit blew our ears out at the beginning of this video.
Makes sense Road of Resistance was pretty darn fast.
Really? Oh wow.
@@dicodec One reason could very well be (she didn't mention it for this song, but did for an other): Megitsune was created early in Babymetal existence and her voice changed over time as she grew up, but they kept the song mostly the same. So that makes it hard for her now to sing it. Unlike songs that were created later that fit her more mature voice better.
@@autohmae indeed the choreography make it harder to perform,thats why this song always comes in early or middle phase of a shows
You guys should check "Ijime, Dame, Zettai!" (Sonisphere 2014) It's a song about anti bullying, and the most important is, they performed it in front of nearly 60,000 metalheads that even didn't have a single clue about what BabyMetal are and they still killed that stage! It was the last song and you can see how the crowd there yourself
The moment of the worldwide journey started there.
Oh wow! Sounds epic. Yeah for sure man we will check it out. Always down for some more BabyMetal. 🤘
Right after lunch your reaction to Megitsune came up 😃What a nice saturday. Sore Sore Sore Sore!!!🦊🤘
If you like Su-metals vocals than try another Solosong like Akatsuki (also from Budokan like Rondo of Nightmare) or try Tamashii No Rufuran (only performed once at her birthday).
Yay! 😃 I've definitely got Akatsuki on the list. Tamashii No Rufuran I shall add to the list.
Su was 14/15 when they did this song so her voice has grown a lot since then.
I believe it. I wonder how it sounds now? 🤔
@@dicodec Her voice is deeper and has more power as she grows so this song sounds even better now.
Hey man..great reaction..u should really listen to su solos if u like her voice..try akatsuki or no rain no rainbow..i think u would like it ..keep up a good work guys 🤟🦊🤟
Thanks so much! We can definitely do that for sure.
..BABYMETAL have won so many awards,,one particular I personally admire is Su-Metal as Loudwire 6th Annual Music Awards - Rock Goddess of the Year 2016 -
Oh wow! That's pretty epic at such a young age as well. She really is worthy of the title.
I've been a Babymetal fan ever since they first played at Rock in Vienna 2015 and only just discovered your channel - I have to say you guys are dope af!
It's awesome to "relive" my BM journey from 5 years ago through your absolutely genuine reactions - thank you!
PS: I hope you are not skipping their live performances, in my opinion the vocals and the instruments hit a lot harder in their live gigs
Thank you so much! Glad we could help you relive your experience in some manner. Of course not we have two of their lives coming up.
@@dicodec While I agree mostly with the original comment here by niikon, I would say only watch any performances from Glastonbury for the dancing. The audio the BBC did for the show recording was complete garbage...like wet, hot, dumpster fire garbage. It was a pop festival that invited a metal band.
They had multiple issues with the audio setup as well: They didn't mic up the second kick bass, and at least one of the girls' headset did work properly at one point. I caution watching anything from Glastonbury to anyone and everyone when it comes up.
Nice reaction!!!
Welcome to the deep foxhole!!
"Megitsune" is one of the お祭り=Omatsuri(festive) metal.
Other Omatsuri metal are "PA PA YA" and "oh!majinai" and "DA DA DANCE".
"BxMxC" is another one of those songs that gets you excited.
However, since this is a new song, I recommend reviewing a song from the same period as the one I've reviewed first.
For example
babymetal death
giveme chocolate
akatsuki
headbanger
ijime,dame,zettai(Live at Sonisphere)
catch me if you can
All of BM's songs are a different type of song, and they are more highly regarded for their live shows and festivals than their music videos.
I'm looking forward to your reaction video to the next BABYMETAL song.
Put your Kitsune🦊 up!
from japan.
Thank you! We're only going to dive deeper haha. Thanks for the info fam, you are a real one! 🤘
You guys should react to their song “Onedari daisakusen” which Moa and Yui sing, only the two girls at the sides. When only the two of them sing, they’re called Black BabyMetal, their duo name. Is a really fun song. Thanks for reacting to BabyMetal 😊
Thank you! Haven't gotten that request yet. Let me add to the list for you fam.
Im woth you man.
But don't EVER try to get the lyrics. NEVER read lyrics on this one. It will confuse western people XD
in the breakdown Sumetal is singing
A fox
A fox
I am a female fox
Women are actresses
not to mention the melody is a metal version of Sakura, sakura basically the most quintessential Japanese song.
This song was released when Sumetal (the middle singer) was 12. It is a song about growing up into womanhood and what was going to be expected of her as a Japanese woman, which by in large still hold to the traditions of subservience to the husband. It's about how she felt that her life was going to be an act and not really genuine. We are not deceiving, we're doing our job.
it's a very deep song that many miss because of the aggressive beat and the fun dances.
Great guys. You need watching this performance live. Is absolutely Amazing! 🤟🏻 🦊
We will do as you command Fox God!
Two years later and we saw them play this live in Vienna. What a night.
Holy shit!
my favorite Babymetal song right now, that breakdown just drives through my fucking soul. soooo good
It's a really dope song! The gutterolls blew my mind haha.
これのブレイクダウンの部分って海外の人ら必ず驚いてるよな。
Migetsune turned me into a Babymetal fan the vocal range of Sumetal is insane and the growl part still sends a chill down my spine and the instrumental work is incredible i've been a fan for a long time and i still can't believe how awesome they are\m/^_^\m/
It's an amazing song so we don't blame you. Very easy to get hooked on these guys!
What I love about Megitsune is that as Suzuka has grown and her voice matured, the track went from a cutesy metal to just flat METAL. This is by far one of my favorite songs to hear live.
Tip: Always react the live versions of BabyMetal songs, as they are much cooler to watch than studio clips. The energy of the crowd, presence of stage, arrangements of the band among other things make the experience much more cool.
BTW is not a criticism, just a suggestion, your react was great!
Thanks man! We welcome criticism my dude so don't hold back on us haha. For this one someone actually reccomended we do the music video so we went for it. The next two however will be live. 🤘
With Megitsume and Karata I would make an exception as the context of the videos adds to overall song and helps make the live performance more understandable.
I personally love the MVs and I wish more reactors did them when they’re available
Megitsune is one of the signature songs by Babymetal. If I am not mistaken this recording was made in 2011, when Moa and Yui were not yet 12 year old. Su-metal was barely a 13 year old, appointed here to be the chosen one by the fox god.
Ah I see. Nice! They really were babies when making this song then haha.
One of their best and an absolute blast live.. They opened with this in Atlanta if i remember correctly and it set the tone. Best night!
That's awesome you got to see them live! We gotta check out the live version of this song for sure.
@@dicodec Drove 440 miles to get there 10 minutes before show. Rocked out, bought merch snd drove 450 miles back! And id do it again in a second..
Dang that's crazy! Glad it was worth it for you. Honestly, would probably do it as well.
'It'd be great if it was one of the girls doing the gutterals'
'I'm sure there's a Japanese band out there who do that'
Broken By The Scream - Koi ha Otome no Nakidokoro.
That band are cute girls, synth, heavy as fuck music and 2 of the girls actually scream. They're kinda like Black Dahlia Murder mixed with BABYMETAL, you should do a reaction to the video!
And yes it's 100% the actual girls screaming, as hard as that will be to believe aha.
I second this recommendation.
100% yes!!
They use a backing track for the screams though. Not like it takes anything away from the girls or the song
@@Rina-eg7zw How do you know, that they use backing tracks? The growls that Io uploads on her twitter seem legit enough and watching their live performances you will recognize how shes exhausted towards the end and the growls get weaker.
On another note: BBTS is exactly what I hoped for when I first got to know Babymetal and finally it caved its way into existence.
Some of the Lady Baby songs come to mind and DOLL$BOX and Shiina Pikarin.
This band is the apex of music, made to have fun and make you forget bad things, vibrate and feel the energy, for me it's the greatest band in the world!
My favorite Baby Metal song by far. Gives me chills every time I listen.
It really is a great song. I threw it in my music library immediately haha. -Eric
So Eric this is your favourite one now, right everyone says that until they listen to the next one if anyone asks me I just say all of them, O I just looked at what you are reacting to next "REALLY" roll on Tuesday looking forward to seeing your reaction to that one.
Haha true I probably will say that for the next one. Dope! Glad you are looking forward to it 🤘
This just goes to show how much talent these girls have start out that young and kill it the way they did you won't see that with any other artists especially ones that young
Exactly! Its ridiculous just how good they are.
@@dicodec right it just shows how much pride they take in there craft
For sure, that's what I think separates japanese bands in general from the US bands.
@@dicodec so not saying us doesn't have any good bands but you don't see the level of professionalism and energy from band's in the us especially ones this young the amount of time and energy the put in to there shows definitely shows and not only that but the theatricals the put in to there shows is unmatched and how many groups out there can captive you despite the language barrier there is I don't know very many they definitely put 100 percent in to everything they do
Great reaction guys!! I recommend you to react to "iine" it's a mindblowing song from their 1st album or Elevator Girl from their last album that song is one of the heaviest there's an english version but i prefer the japanese version!!
Thank you so much! We will check out both songs! How about dah? Haha 😂
It's crazy that this was when they were like 11 or something.
Yui and Moa were 11 when BABYMETAL started. Su was 12.
By the time this music video was released, Su was 15, and Yui and Moa were 13 (almost 14).
Weren't they like 14-15is here? Still yeah that's pretty crazy considering the oldest is like 22 now lol.
@@dicodec - The music video was released in June 2013. So i think 14-15 is probably right for their ages. For Doki Doki Morning the music was recorded a year before the music video was released. So they were probably 13-14 when they recorded the vocals.
But they had a whole team of adults making the songs for them. All they had to do was sing them. It's not something they couldn't handle.
@@dicodec 23
great reactions guys. I think no one has recommended this one before. But you guys should definitely react to "Babymetal - Sis. Anger". That song its heavy af
Thanks so much! Of course we will react to that song friend. 😄
Suzuka and one of her older sister Himeka went into singing career very early.
Himeka was in one of the most significant idol group in Japan, Nogizaka46. But she didn't stands out in the group since the group is filled with dozens of talented young girls and also due to a few years of bad health condition. Himeka is now away from show business and been studying and working in counseling.
Oh wow that a neat little fact. I mean it sucks she left showbiz but hey whatever makes her happy.
5:05Everyone translates "Shouldn't be underestimate" ,but it's a literal translation, it's more dirty and brutal way of saying in Japanese, this is a line that overpower the opponent. Su is saying "Don't give a fuck" if I translate.
from Japan
Oh wow, that's pretty brutal!
love this song its my jam thanks you guys ive watch you guys for a bit and now im hooked so clicked tha subscribe and bell button thx your great have a great weekend
Hey man thank you so much! That means the world to us! You have a good one brother!
Another good reaction, but definitely must try "Iine" official MV
Thank you so much! Of course we will do it. More BabyMetal on the way!
You guys defenitly should check out "GJ!" or "Sis Anger" by Black Babymetal (Yui and Moa without Su)
Heck yeah! I'm super curious to hear it.
@@dicodec there are Yui and Moa solos as well. They are older (I think they performed them when they were 12ish) but really good.
Yui's is called "Chokotto Love"
Moa's is" Love Machine"
@@ripley7840 Those were at Legend 1999 for their 14th birthdays.
Love your reaction. This song is everything
It's the song that converted me I know bands don't want to remake the same song but I love the sound of traditional Japanese instruments on this I wish they had a couple more song that used them
That's cool man! Yup it definitely adds something special to the song you dont really expect. It's a really great song for sure.
Thanks for reacting to my request. You just earned a subscriber for keeping your words. Great reaction. I know you have a Long list but if you are falling into the fox hole (which I presume that is gonna be sometime soon) you might wanna check out one of Su’s solo. Baby metal - akatsuki live version is the best!
Glad we were able to get to it! For sure we do have that one on the list so it will happen. Not quite sure when though. It really shouldn't be too long though.
"Everything about this is so fucking good." Eric, let me say that there really is no better way to describe a BABYMETAL performance.
Haha I believe it!
Please react to "Arkadia" and "Starlight" LIVE PRO-SHOOT by babymetal this songs are amazing and the video has subtitle :)
Yes for sure! Those were high up on the list.
Another great one. I first heard them 2 years ago and thought just another gimmicky band. As I explored and learned more I think they are one of the greatest bands in the world. They have a heck of a catalog and appeal to audiences around the. When you can't understand what they are singing and still like them that says a lot. I highly recommend learning the English translation of the lyrics because the meanings are pretty impressive. I am deep in the fox Hole 😂. 🤘🦊🤘.
Yup yup was a big fan if the intro in this one. Really well produced song. Had a similar experience with them at first. Thanks to our viewers we've come to I understand alittle better what they're all about and have nothing but the upmost respect for them.
Guys, i'm surprised that you just discovered babymetal 1 year ago.
I will recommend you another great japanise band called Demetori, give it a chance. You can begin with a song called "Mysterious Mountain" for example
Babymetal is the best driving music, EVER!
I actually haven't heard them in the car yet but I would imagine its epic!
Sokoninaru have just (2020-Jul-12) uploaded a cover of Megitsune to their RUclips channel. They play it very straight, including all of the vocal elements. Search: BABYMETAL『メギツネ』
sokoninaru そこに鳴る
Oh snap! This I gotta hear.
They're doing the backround screams ..that's why they are a liitle bit high pintched
Hey, if you guys don't know them could you react to Versailles?
If you have a LOT of time go with Faith and Decision which shows their true musicianship.
Otherwise Masquerade would be a good choice too 💚
I think you will really like them!
We haven't heard them yet so we are totally down my friend. 🤘
check "broken by the scream" they pretty similar to babymetal (alt-idol) they got good low growl and high screamer 10/10
Sounds dope! Heck yeah we'll do it!
Will they be ready for the weird things?... iine, BMC, oh! Majinai!?
We are ready for all of them!
Wow.... it's fire bro
🤘🤘
Yup yup such a fire song!
Yes there is a Japanese female metal band where the girls put in the gutturals. There's a couple actually. Check out Doll$Boxx and Bridear.
Oh snap! The hype is real. We will definitely be checking them out. Isn't Doll$Boxx Fuki's other band? 😮 or rather one of the many bands she is in lol
@@dicodec That's right. It's one of Fuki's innumerable projects. Doll$Boxx is hilarious by the way... completely mad! You just gotta love Japan!
No chowder? :(
Another Babymetal rec for yall is Catch Me If You Can
No Chowder sadly 🥺.
Fa show. I've got it on the list so it will happen friend.🤘
You guys might like this too if you're into this. *WAGAKKIBAND / "Ignite"* They use traditional instuments and mix it with a kind of metal style.
Oh dope! Were are down for it. There is just something about having those traditional Instuments and mixing them with metal that really makes it the whole thing sound full and amazing.
Great reaction! You guys need to react to their live shows videos 🤘🏻🦊
Thank you! Yes the next two BabyMetal songs will be live versions.
This was the first Babymetal song to really click for me. I think Gimme Chocolate was the first to blow up stateside, but I kinda blew it off because the mixing on the original video was frankly shit. Then Megitsune came out and blew my tiny little mind. Hard to believe they were like, 12 and 14 when this came out.
Dope! Gimme chocolate was actually the first song I heard as well. Megitsune is ridiculously good. It is not when you realize that they are in their 20s now haha.
I see a lot of people saying to react to only live stuff from them. I say do what you want, but the music videos are usually pretty good. If nothing else, they are entertaining. Often times, they give you context for what you see in the live performances. I suggest maybe doing a reaction to both a music video and then a live performance in the same video. I would recommend checking out the music video for "Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!" and then the live version at Legend 1997.
It's been pretty inconsistent when it comes to that. So maybe that might be a solution for that. It would be a pretty long video though haha. Dope we've got Headbanger already filmed and ready to go. That one we watched the live.
@@dicodec Yeah, there's a lot of differing opinions on it. Most people say live, which is 100% true, as you've seen, they are incredible. I like the videos because most are from when they started out, so you see how young/little they were compared to now, but also many of them are very well done. Perhaps hit up the "Headbanger" video later, because there is one thing from it that you should see and get some context to before you jump into "Death", unless you've already done that one.
Yeah the lives are really dope! The crowd interaction really give even more hype to the performance.
Yeah we saw Death live as well. That one was crazy haha.
Just one rule for react babymetal, look all songs in Live performace, just it ^^ good react ;)
Thank you! The next two will be live for sure and I'll make sure the rest will be as well unless you guys tell us otherwise. 🙂
@@dicodecYap dude, i like yours reactions ! Do it more ! Babymetal it's a cleary live performance band, but im babymetal fan boy so ... haha thx dudes for your reactions!
My favorite song❤️🔥
2007 - 2017 was the golden age of both J-pop and J-rock. Too much great stuff for the world to absorb at once, people will be talking about this music for decades to come.
Dang, that's crazy! Yeah I think you're right they are all legends in the making.
Hey guys, nice content, i've been fan of MTH since 10 years ago, and Babymetal & Band Maid since 5.
I recommend Dir en Grey - Vinushka, another fucking awesome japanese band, give it a try.
Thank you! Been hearing really good things about Dir en Grey. I'm pretty hype for it!
@@dicodec Thank you guys for the content
check out AWADAMA FEVER WITH THE (KAMI BAND) INTRO IT WILL GET UP N GROOVING
We are down!
Love guys reactions entertaining is always you have to say this is one of my favorite songs by then the breakdown it's just totally sick and when she pulls a knife microphone I need one of those anyway hope you all being safe the song is epic for sure
Thanks so much! Same here Definitely one of my favorites as well. Stay safe put there! 🤘
Want the true power of BabyMetal...watch iine...electric, metal, rap all in one song
Aight we are ready for it. 🤘
Since I know Babymetal, I've never found a band as powerful as them.
Not surprising, this song alone goes so hard with so gutterroll vocals!
@@dicodec Not only that. It's Suzuka's voice in general
Kitsune Up!
The Japanese sounding string instrument could be a shamisen? It's the string instrument the band are playing in the back in the video. I believe you can also hear it in Onedari Daisakusen, a BLACK BABYMETAL (Yui and Moa duo) song, but don't quote me lmao
That's what most people are saying so I think you're right haha. About what other song it's featured in, we will find out.
Ijime dame Zettai next pls (the live version) it was their first performance outside japan
We have Death and HeadBanger on the way next chief. We will absolutely do that one soon after.
Female Japanese death voices, include Passcode, Galmet, Dazzle Vision. Taiwan’s Chthonic singer has said he wished he was invited to do growl/screams for BabyMetal, but basically nobody knows who recorded them...
Ah I see. Interesting 🤔 what if it wasn't even a human that tracked those vocals? Dun dun dun!!
nice thanks please more cheers 🤟🦊💖
Thank you! You got it. More on the way🤘
If you guys want to see the true power of Su's voice, listen to No Rain, No Rainbow. That traditional Japanese instrument is also called a Shamisen.
You're saying she has even more impressive vocal performances? 😮
Ah cool! That's what it's called.
@@dicodec The No Rain, No Rainbow performance is from early 2018 so she's 20 or 21 at that point. I think she was 14 when they recorded this video.
And yeah, it's a cool instrument. Takes a ton of skill to get good though.
Alright so check that performance out?.....got it!
It's really cool, it just adds something unique to the mix really makes the guitars pop in a way. It does look like it would take some work to get it right.
Спасибо за реакцию 👍,🙏🔥
😃
Okay, did you pick on that Su has the Mike/Knife in her hand for the entire video.
The girls have said the dancing was the most strenuous they had to do. They still do it in concert.
Nah I didn't actually. 😲 I've got to rewatch it. Oh wow they made it look easy. I would have never guessed that.
@@dicodec Okay while you're watching again look for when Moa falls down.
Please react to X Japan kurenai last live 97.
It is heresy to react to Babymetal, Band Maid and Wagakki band without knowing X Japan.
Oddly enough they were actually the very first request we ever received. Not quite sure why we haven't dont it yet but it will happen though!
The funny thing is that they were quite young when this was made, and in the commentary for the track they recall the band members, scary makeup and all, playing with marbles with them in between takes which must've been such an odd sight with the contrast
So dope, that sounds like so much fun
@@dicodec "Mean character, nice actor" in full effect.
Good stuff! You will constantly get comments that live BABYMETAL is best BABYMETAL. It's often true, because the studio effects are turned down and the guitars cranked up - makes it easier for metal folks to handle. There's also the crowd element. However, there are a few tracks where the studio version / MV is an essential first watch. 'Megitsune' benefits from the studio production, everything cranked up to 11 and the knife scene in the video. The other tracks where the official video should be done first are 'Doki Doki ☆ Morning' (first video, very young) and 'Iine!' (the transitions are more extreme). The opposite is true for 'BABYMETAL DEATH', where you really have to see the Legend 1997 live version.
If you want to see idols handling the harsh vocals, I'd point you towards PassCode's 'Taking you out' MV and if that's not hard enough for you try something from Broken By the Scream. There are plenty of Japanese bands doing interesting things with vocals. Try 'Vantias' by DIMLIM, or some DEVILOOF if you want to go extreme.
Thanks so much for breaking that down for us! This is why we love you guys. Sweet, so Death live and Doki Doki as well as Line MV....got it!
I've got those bands on our list. Shouldn't be long long before we react to them. 🤘❤ -Eric
Deviloof = nightmares :D
@@dicodec Just for clarity, the full song title is 'BABYMETAL DEATH' - you need both words for the pun - and the specific live performance is from the Legend 1997 show. And although it's kinda fun when the mistake happens, I'll point out that it is 'iine' not 'line'. That's double ' i ' and you say it like 'ee-neh'. It's an expression of approval - you'll see thumbs-up gestures in the video. Hopefully that's not a spoiler.
I fucking love this song.
I don't blame you. You have good taste! 🤘
Dicodec Check out Headbanger. Another one of their great songs
You guys should look for Wagakki Band. Tengaku is a song I'd recommend.
They're a metal band but with traditional Japanese instruments too.
This song I've recommended even has a flute solo!
Sounds dope my friend. I've got them on the list. It's gonna happen!
@@dicodec nice!
Thanks for the reply!
You won't regret Wagakki. And may the Fox God be with you 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻
I don't know if it's true but apparently the "otome ga nametara Ikan zeyo" is a reference from a old Yakuza movie where the daughter of a triad chief says that.
You can heard it at the end of the trailer. The movie is called "onimasa"
Sorry if anyone already mentioned it.
That is interesting 🤔
Oh by the way those Japanese stringed instruments are called Samisen or Shamisen.
Oh sweet! Thanks for clearing that one up for us.
With babymetal the way to go is Live!
My recommendations:
-Headbanger live (in legend of 1997)
-No rain no rainbow (live at legend S)
-Line! Live
-Yava live
-Ijime dame zetai Live
-Akatzuki live
Sweet! We've got Headbanger coming at you after BabyMetal Death live. Not quite sure the order from there but we do plan to do all of them.
@@dicodec perfect!!! You got a new sub here 💖
Yay!! 😃
5:55 Late Babymetal Lead Guitarist Mikio Fujioka's Spirit Appears!
No way? I need to rewatch 😮
The pulling-dagger part obviously doesn't work live, so in concert footage you just get a face-level high-kick on that line.
Sweet insight!
Not sure if this was intentional for the music video, but I always imagine the playful bright color Su persona is singing the melody and black and white maiden Su persona is singing the lower harmony in the backtrack. (This also kinda shows the intention of the lyrics.)
Or, am I just looking in too deep and this is just a happy coincidence?
No, I think you're on to something there. It must have been Intentional for sure. Nice catch though I didnt even notice that
Funny you should mention that!growls
Dollsbox. Take my chance !
You won't be disappointed .
I'm down! I wanna hear some of Fuki's other projects.
good choice,good reaction.
We are babymetal.
Thank you so much!! More BabyMetal on the way!
Wow, ypu see them grow up with the Fox Gos!
Seen many Band Maid reactions here, can't believe you still haven't done a Lovebites one...
They're so highly requested we had no choice Haha. We're starting to branch out though. I really really wanna hear them!
