So true. The blend seemed so unnatural on first thought because it's rare that East meets West and it works ... but both of these bands have some of the best production value in the world, and putting them together and seeing the amount of fun they were having in the video puts a smile on your face. Easily best song of the year nothing comes close
I love what's happening with the metal genre via EC, WBTBWB et al. The edgy, "blood, gore and praise satan" theme in metal was getting boring anyway...
I think my favourite part of every reaction to this song....is when someone in the comments mentions that the second "ARE YOU READY" in the harsh vocal breakdown and the "EVERY BODY" harsh vocals at the end are done by Momometal and not Kevin or Nico lol...today I am that person!!!
Holy shit you're right I did not catch that at all! That's so rad! While everyone of course misses Yui, Momo was such a good addition to BABYMETAL. Really looking forward to her harsh vocals showing up their future songs.
@@remochiun266 Most listeners missed that... even "voice coaches" listening with headphones 🤣 But to your defense: it´s very difficult to hear it actually. I had to check again several times to ensure myself that I didn´t hear things 🤣
Couldn't have put it better myself haha. It's awesome seeing the girls from Babymetal goofing around and having fun in a music vid. Such a good vibe all around!
I'm really open minded in music, but mostly listen to black metal. How did i come here? Just some algoritm i guess. But wth is this? You're right. Happy smiley time is just making me shaking in my chair. I just need to hear more from electric callboy. Goodbye: I'm on my quest for happy music and leave thé dark forests and frostbitten kingdoms behind me thé next couple of hours 😂🎉🎉
Fun fact Momometal knows how to growl and she does a few of them in the breakdown and throughout the song. It can be heard best after Kevin scream the first "Are you ready" the second "Are you ready" scream you heard after that is Momometal.
No reactor has noticed her growls. Everyone is looking at the video. I first listened on Spotify and noticed right away that one of the women was doing harsh vocals, so I was looking for it in the video.
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。I witnessed the live debut and the second performance of RATATATA by BABYMETAL and Electric Callboy together in the two-day Fox_Fest at Saitama Super Arena on May 25 / 26 (Japan time) . Fun, fun, fun. Happy, happy, happy. That' all, as you can imagine. The song was played in the BABYMETAL's setlist in the festival. So the band in the back of girls and Nico / Kevin was not EC band but West Kamis. That was great, too.
It's so crazy... I have tears in my eyes, when I see stuff like this, because I'm so happy about the 3-4 minutes of pure peace and fun and that it shows me, that life isn't only fu**ing bullsh*t... I'm really thankfull...
I knew as soon as I saw they'd made a song it would be amazing, I mean J-Pop Metal and Dance Electronicore you know is just going to be pure happiness, I know a lot of Metalheads hate BABYMETAL but personally even though I'm not into J-Pop I love them they're just fun and just like Electric Callboy you know the song will just make you smile because it's just pure joy
It's a hot take, but frankly the self-appointed "metalheads" that hate on Babymetal are posers. Those girls are every bit as metal as the other greats of the genre. I don't wanna flip up the racism card right away, but the fact that they aren't white and westerm has probably more than a little to do with it.. When the girls have the approval of so many big names in the industry, the haters are just making themselves look terrible..
@@jarlhenrik I don't think it's a hot take, you are spot on. I hate the gate keeping in the metal scene. clear voices? NO METAL! having fun? NO METAL! I mean babymetal and electric callboy having so much fun and it gives me so much joy, for what more could I possibly ask? lol sorry for my little rant😂 and broken English...
@@jarlhenrik It ain’t pulling the racism card when it’s true. Just about every single person who hates Babymetal that I’ve talked too managed to bring their race into the conversation.
If metalheads don't like Babymetal, then they can't listen to songs like "good girls, bad guys" FIR, or "blood" by MCR. It's fun music, it doesn't always have to be growls and headbanging. Sometimes it can be a boppy vibe too.😁🤘
You got all the cool stuff .... I mean, this isn't "You missed where Floor growls **"... BUT, since you asked about Meth and Sweet, sweet poppy stuff : What it does is rot the eff'n teeth out and leave a field of burnt-out stumps that Ken Kesey should have included in Sometimes a Great Notion... except meth came 2 full generations later.... but I digress. **** Anyway Good fun was had by alll ... there are some fan-cell-vids of the two groups doing this at FoxFest on May 25th (yeah, THAT Last Night) I'd wait for an official Live vid before viewing, cuz the crowd shots might be worth it. ** OK, yes it IS just like missing a Jansen harsh line. Momo is doing some of the growling in here. Most notably the second "Are You Ready" and near the end when the are doing the Speed Skate move. **** Oregon rural dentist here. Also spent 3 years on the faculty in public health in PDX in the earliest 2000... I know my methmouth. ****** WTF is with me? double-tapping my asterisks ... what happened to a single *?
when i first heard this song on Octan Radio. i would never though that electric callboy and babymetal would be something that i needed in my life and holy shit they fit so well together. we need more
iirc, you missed the boat on 'Hanabie' when they started blowing up last year, but I'm pretty sure you'd like them because they make exactly this kind of music and is a group of 25year old Japanese girls, who started playing together in middle school with Maximum the Hormone covers some 9 years ago
You are frakking kidding me! Alex is reacting to a Babymetal song? I remember a long time ago I had suggested Alex do a Babymetal song, but I didn't know if he knew them at all. So very excited! Omg, Alex loves Babymetal! That just makes me all warm and fuzzy dude. Thank you!!!! I hope you watched Leave it All Behind with Babymetal, F.Hero and Bodyslam. Awesome reaction dude!
I am crossing my fingers that we'll see them on stage together on upcoming festivals in Europe. Electric Callboy was on a festival of those girls and they were together on the stage this weekend. So I am hoping for the same in Rock Am Ring and Graspop.
I just saw this live at FOX_FEST in Japan. They gave us the best 5 minutes of fun and happiness of our lives. BABYMETAL invited Electric Callboy to their stage, and they sang and danced together. The entire arena, full of the crowd, got lit and exploded! It was incredible to see this song live! It’s so easy to join the party! Ra Ta Ta Ta Ta! 🤘🦊🤘
I can confirm the replayability and binging on this song.. I listened to the video 3 times in one morning, then went and listened to 50+ reaction vids.. I'm still not burnt
Good sir, I gotta say… I have seen many of your videos through the years and consistently the quality of your “content”(I hate that word) gets better and better and even freaking better! Thoroughly enjoy your videos 🙏
I discovered this song when it was heard over the upcoming WWE PPV Bash in Berlin. I'm like, "That sounds good. Gotta find out what that is." And you find it...and you're so high when you first hear it you have it on repeat like a 6yo and his/her favorite song
I was sad pretty much all the time for the last few weeks for some personal reasons and this song is the first thing that was able to cheer me up for a few minutes. I needed this so much right now.🤩
Enjoyed watching you watching them. Love ElectricCallboy!! And BabyMetal is the icing on this happy cake. Everything Baby Metal touches turns to gold! I just love the girl's playfulness and cuteness here!!! And how beautiful does Su look and sound when she is singing to the big disco ball???? She is on a whole other level!!
Im 56 yrs old love metal , rap, etc. Never heard of either of these bands before. Got into jinger awhile back . I have to say that I had a perma grin on my face the whole time watching this video. So much fun.
The collab just confirmed how similar EC and Babymetal when it comes to fun metal and both of them are good.
Agreed, its such a perfect combination of hella talented people having lots of fun.
if this video proves anything, thats it
So true.

@@balazsfoldes4700 True... I hate songs that are heavy for the sake of just being heavy..
I think my favourite part of every reaction to this song....is when someone in the comments mentions that the second "ARE YOU READY" in the harsh vocal breakdown and the "EVERY BODY" harsh vocals at the end are done by Momometal and not Kevin or Nico lol...today I am that person!!!
Anyone ever mentioned it in reaction? I've watched some of them, but don't remember. Maybe Chris Lepie with Andy Cizek?
Starting with the first "everybody " its Momo, then Kevin, then Momo, Then Kevin.
Holy shit you're right I did not catch that at all! That's so rad! While everyone of course misses Yui, Momo was such a good addition to BABYMETAL. Really looking forward to her harsh vocals showing up their future songs.
Just imagine, she was about to become a member of Kep1er, what a loss for the Kawaii Metal world it would have been.
@@remochiun266 Most listeners missed that... even "voice coaches" listening with headphones 🤣 But to your defense: it´s very difficult to hear it actually. I had to check again several times to ensure myself that I didn´t hear things 🤣

the breaking through the wall portion was a single shot, and they only had one chance. they are releasing a "making of" video. should be awesome
Ooo I can't wait for that! The behind the scenes vids from EC are always fun to watch
Lol I heard that and I was like no wonder they were coming through so aggressively lol
This track is the most fun I've had all year.
I need a whole EP of Babymetal × Electric Callboy collabs.
Electric Callboy just dropped a reaction to your reaction. Full circle.
And Kevin called him sexy, that will make the wife jealous
"And just like the last Falling in Reverse reaction, I'm gonna leave you guys with a-"
🤣
I hate and love him for it xD
Both Bands take their Music Serious, that is why they work so well.
You can have fun, but the Music has to be perfection.
Fun fact Momometal knows how to growl and she does a few of them in the breakdown and throughout the song. It can be heard best after Kevin scream the first "Are you ready" the second "Are you ready" scream you heard after that is Momometal.

I read this somewhere else and started listening to that in particular. Very cool fact indeed :D
I'm dying to hear a Babymetal / Hanabie collab so that we can get Yukina and Momo going head to head with their growl vocals
Anyone who says fun fact wears socks and sandals
@@Ns247-l1c Fun Fact: Everyone wears socks and sandals. Only a few do it at the same time.
I got to see it live twice this weekend at FOX_FEST in Tokyo and it went so hard live. The crowd went completely nuts.

WE DO FUN METAL THINGS HERE!
Every time i see this i hear Nic's voice for some reason
@@kostadinangelov7276and he's growling it too.
If germany had this for eurovision they'd crushed it!
even though japan isnt in Europe they'd have to at least throw them an honorary award for the assist
Can confirm this song more than holds up when put on repeat and never gets old, it just flows
I have a rather bad cold, and I swear to whatever deity might be out there that this song is what carries me through this shit.
Hope you feel better soon dude
@@konos-p8842 Oh, don't worry. It'll be over soon.
the 🦊 god is helping you
Same Here. No Energy left in the Body ... until this Song Kicks in! Get well soon mate! 🤒
Update, as good as new.@@ImionLordred
This collaboration between Japan and Germany is much better than the one they did many years ago.
Talking about Axis or the Mk5 Toyota Supra?

It's coming.
The collab of the year already RATATATA everyone at FOX_FEST Festival in Japan, the hit of the summer is on🦊🤘🐭
man you don't miss a single BABYMETAL video, i appreciate your dedication honestly.
Funniest comment I read - this is amazing only because when Germany and Japan have collaborated in the past, things didn't go so well.
@@akatsuki_silva I've seen a Babymetal fan 'complain' on a fan forum that their are to many reactions and they can't keep up. 🙂
@@autohmae Total madness how this exploded, indeed 🤣
This is a good colab but is comes in second for me, I liked knocked loose and poppy more
when i first heard this song on Octan Radio. i would never though that electric callboy and babymetal would be something that i needed in my life and holy shit they fit so well together. we need more
@0:14 Sir, i had you on speaker, wtf.
I've loved Babymetal for years, and this being my first time listening to Electric Callboy, I immediately followed on Spotify.
iirc, you missed the boat on 'Hanabie' when they started blowing up last year, but I'm pretty sure you'd like them because they make exactly this kind of music and is a group of 25year old Japanese girls, who started playing together in middle school with Maximum the Hormone covers some 9 years ago
I now want to see a sitcom where EC and Babymetal are stepsiblings.... and they jam out a new song every episode.... The Baby Bunch? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤘🦊🤘
I'm always impressed with those girls in Babymetal.
Just waited for your reaction 🙂 One of my favorite reactors!
Greetings from Germany!
Best German / Japanese collab since Sep 27, 1940.
Shit is an absolute bop!
Also Bring Me The Horizon has a New Album out!! You should check it out!
I’m a big fan!
You are frakking kidding me! Alex is reacting to a Babymetal song? I remember a long time ago I had suggested Alex do a Babymetal song, but I didn't know if he knew them at all. So very excited!
Omg, Alex loves Babymetal! That just makes me all warm and fuzzy dude. Thank you!!!! I hope you watched Leave it All Behind with Babymetal, F.Hero and Bodyslam. Awesome reaction dude!
He's reacted to a whole bunch of them in the past. xD
This just put an absolutely massive smile on my face! what a TUNE
I don’t know how anyone can listen to this song or watch the video and not smile. This is a “improve your day” song.
Such a fun video and loved your Brady Bunch correlation! Loved it.
I didn't know I needed this collaboration. And now that it's here, I have to say: I'm addicted to it
Wholesome culmination of the axis forces 😂😂, all jokes aside, the song slaps
Crossfaith feat. Wargasm have done a song titled 'God Speed' and is well worth checking out....
Your reaction was the living embodiment of how i felt when i first watched this! 😂🔥
Did you see Electric Callboys reaction on the reactions? They also talk about you!
ruclips.net/video/9CQGZ51vgo8/видео.htmlsi=E9pC1W77BX1IhSz_
Congrats Alex
I giggled my ass off during this video. Amazing catchy song with the funniest commentary from you was a cherry on top.

This is the collab we didn't know we needed but we got anyway and it fucking slaps. This song is living rent free in my mind.
Gotta love the odd combination of Babymetal's perfectly choreographed moves and Nico and Kevin doing that white boy dancing behind them.
Every time I come here for a reaction I have to remind myself this guy graduated from law school 😂
I love it. Keep up the great content!
Wait what
This is pure RATATATA TA TAAAAAAAAAAAAA !!!
Bro became the textbook definition of an eargasm during this video and is 100% justified
This is one of that songs you never want to end.... freakin awesome
Babymetal and Electric Callboy makes my brain go BOOM BOOM BOOM.
Will Ratatata all week long! 🪩🕺🤘🦊
Babymetal are one of the best, and cutest ladies in Metal today.
"the collaboration we didn't know we needed"
Well, we needed at least one positive collaboration between Germany and Japan
My favorite part about this collab is that Germany and Japan are back at taking over the world again and I keep seeing this in the comments
Except it's with music and they're now both our allies.
The last time I have felt such JOY from a song was when Subwoolfer hit the stage at Eurovision!
Nanowar of steel: hey, wanna do collab? we could call it axis of party
Alex Hefner, This is so fun! I'm happy I found your channel!
Good sir, I gotta say… I have seen many of your videos through the years and consistently the quality of your “content”(I hate that word) gets better and better and even freaking better! Thoroughly enjoy your videos 🙏
I love your energy!!! This song and video is awesome.
Miss your reactions
Effing great. ❤
If I may add non insulting. Did yall notice how on point Su’s English is?
I agree that this was a collaboration that we did not know we needed, The new Ice Nine Kills song with Reel Big Fish is another.
1:58 Now you know how an "eargasm" feels and looks like ♥
"The collaboration we didn't know we needed." My first reaction, and probably the comment I've seen more people make than any other.
I'm so glad you're doing planet of the apes. I CAN'T WAIT
@6:44 ++* You said it broseph! If tha majority thought same tho!
Alex I haven't checked your channel out for a while but I saw this and had to check in.
i have to say this is WAY better than the last time japan and germany collabed on something
Automatic sun- the warning
Did you see how cool Kevin looked at the end, while walking off?
its so beauuutifauauuuxll i got tears in my eyes
Great react! This is such a fun video. Loved it.
I believe these two bands were just MADE to collab!
Its really awesome colab. I Love this song!!!❤
I still hear it in my head 😃
Thanks for your reaction 👊
Anything with babymetal is just always such a vibe I love them! Every song they are in is such a hit!
It feels like the new generation of disco music
Slaughter to prevail dropped a new song called kid of darkness
I'm seeing baby metal in February and I haven't been this excited to go to a gig since I saw ACDC in 2017 😂😂
You made it into the official ElectricCallboy video 🙂
best collab i've heard in years. This song just rocks
The Babymetal costumes look like are from a Final Fantasy video game.
The gaffers did a great job
I discovered this song when it was heard over the upcoming WWE PPV Bash in Berlin. I'm like, "That sounds good. Gotta find out what that is." And you find it...and you're so high when you first hear it you have it on repeat like a 6yo and his/her favorite song
Did anybody hear the Ghostbusters theme in the background synth?
Yes in the last part. Glad im not the only one´!!!
I was sad pretty much all the time for the last few weeks for some personal reasons and this song is the first thing that was able to cheer me up for a few minutes. I needed this so much right now.🤩
I was waiting for this reaction! Can't help but sing and dance along with the song, it's so good!
This song was incredible! Fun video. ❤ Love their energy.
i need 1 hour version of this song
I love you man, welcome back!
PS: you're a real clone of Eric Forman from That 70s Show
Enjoyed watching you watching them. Love ElectricCallboy!! And BabyMetal is the icing on this happy cake. Everything Baby Metal touches turns to gold! I just love the girl's playfulness and cuteness here!!! And how beautiful does Su look and sound when she is singing to the big disco ball???? She is on a whole other level!!
This is so so PERFECT!!! I love this so much!!!
Song of the year, right here!
WWE Bash at Berlin
Im 56 yrs old love metal , rap, etc. Never heard of either of these bands before. Got into jinger awhile back . I have to say that I had a perma grin on my face the whole time watching this video. So much fun.
Also Tank the tech (youtube reactor) is their manager now which is awesome
Electric Callboy reacted to people reacting to this video. They said some really nice things about you. Just thought you might like to know.😊
Greg the stop sign !! In the background .
TISM
It's so wild to compare this to older BM-songs like Megitsune
You´re just an awesome guy. Thank you for ur reactions!
