      For me, last year in March, my whole EC journey started with your channel. Never heard EC, never watched reaction channels, it was the algorithm basically having a stroke. At the end of the year I got a notification from Spotify that I'm in the Top 1% listeners for EC, and I've also gained a new hobby of watching reactions to EC, because you showed me that reactions actually can add value to existing content.

    You know what really sells this as a true collaboration? Both bands are doing each others vocal parts. You rarely get that when the collab is just a glorified feature, that usually sticks to the “you get a verse and a chorus to yourself if you‘re lucky“ format. But here, they all jump in on each others vocal parts. I love that so much.

I agree with you Tank that Electric Callboy are so refreshing in their attitude towards music, they know when to have fun but also make really great music. I've enjoyed watching all your behind the scenes videos with the band. Thanks for giving us such an interesting insight into Touring life.

    Thanks again 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 on May 25 / 26 (Japan time) . Fun, happy, exhilarating, bubbly... Those words I could think of, as you can imagine. The song was played in the BABYMETAL's setlist in the festival. So, as you pointed out, the band in the back of the girls and Nico / Kevin was BM's West Kami Band (bassist = Ryan Neff) in place of EC band that played in this MV. That was great, too. Yes, on their 50:50 collaboration basis, the interchangeability between the two versatile bands is good. EC boys can join BM concerts and BM girls can show up in EC's worldwide 😍

      And then you either like what they do, or you don`t.

      @@dutchraider2 Dropping a random song to friends is one of the worst things you can do. Even if you love the same genre, music is all about the mood you're currently in.
      If I'm tired and someone links me this song, I won't listen to it. If I'm in a good mood, I will listen to it. And that's just two moods out of like a billion.
      Randomly dropping a song to a friend will usually backfire. Just play it when you're grilling irl and there's some music on the background or listening to same playlist online or whatever. It's a smooth way to slip it in without drawing attention to it.

      Anyway, I still think it's weird that 100% of the reactors, even usually very opinionated reactors, all like this song and can see the enjoyment in it.
      But my friends can't.
      I guess them being new parents plays a role in this. I see a lot of my friends getting children and it just does not seem to bring them more benefits then depression if you ask me. But that's my opinion.

    PS: Oh! and two more things, so many people don't realize that Momo-Metal did a few growls in this collab. I'm super proud of that girl for stepping up to add the one thing BabyMetal was missing! Also, It was super cool to get a behind the scenes perspective from you :) So double thank you for that XD

    "They filmed that in Germany." You're not telling me that Babymetal came to the EC compound in Castrop-Rauxel, five miles from my doorstep, without me having the slightest idea, are you? Jeez.
    One question that has interested the Babymetal fans since the song came out: Which of the growls are actually Momo's? We know she can do it. Most of us assume that the second "Are you ready?" and the "Everybody"s are hers, while the first "are you ready" is Kevin. The "out of control" is hard to place, might be both of them. I'd love if you could enlighten us on this question.

Genius move from both bands, and like i said the song is an absolut banger, lifting up the spirit and put a smile on your face. Glorious!

I say "little", because there would be so much more of inside information that we are all interested in. For example, even if this is a 50/50 collaboration, who came up with the initial idea? Why it is released on the BM and not on the EC channel...? Questions over questions. But I understand that this is confidential and only to be revealed by the bands itself. I guess you just won't add "Whistleblower" to your resumé... 😉😁😉
    Anyway, as a German, I am kinda proud of EC and especially how this "niche" collab is currently blowing up. What a effing great job by all the involved parties, and I mean everybody, from the bands to all the production and touring crews...
