Rob Halford: "“I think Babymetal are one of the most unique metal experiences in the world right now. Not only their appearances, and their style and everything that surrounds them visually, but they're an incredible band as well. ”
@Morbid Angel is better than Death Nope, that wasn't presented as an argument to support anything. n any case, Halford is a metal pionner, his opinion about metal music matters. Too bad you disagree. But please, highlight what was wrong with what he said, exactly. Haters gonna hate, I guess.
@Morbid Angel is better than Death Funny how you keep stalking babymetal fans posts just trying to diss them. They are metal, and you saying they aren't doesn't change the facts.
Neocoolzero but his opinion is superior, just look at his vocab, he’s clearly above the rest of us...
@Morbid Angel is better than Death you really have a hard on for me to be coming back again dude. Who the fuck cares what playlists I have, that's no indication whatsoever of what I enjoy or not, I listen to all kinds of music, doesn't mean I'm gonna be making playlists of all of the, that would be insane lol.
@Morbid Angel is better than Death I'm sure you're familiar with the "No True Scotsman" fallacy, then.
I used to be a metal purist and didn't want to give Babymetal a chance. I then decided to give them that chance and it's metal enough for me; and their music makes me happy so I don't care if it's not. It's been a long time since music made me happy like Babymetal does. I love them now.
Yes, absolutely agree! They help you evolve. Metal purists, grow up!
Best comment. When you see them live, you're going to leave the concert with this euphoria that will have you smiling for days. I know. I've seen them 20 times in 5 years.
Thanks! They're on my list of bands to see that's for sure.
You can't be cute and metal!
"Hold my beer!" ~ Babymetal
You can't put keyboards in metal!

You can't mix classical and metal!

Metal's entire existence has been one big exercise of someone saying, "You can't do that!" followed by someone doing exactly THAT extremely well!
@@garykeeling2275 And it's only made Metal that much better. It's no wonder why metal is a higher form of music.
Metal fans don't like it, because it works and they are jealous. Good reaction. Try HEADBANG 1997 "LIVE" You're welcome !!
Fun reaction! Here are some fun facts:
1. This song was named one of the most important metal songs of the last 10 years
2. Baby Metal was named #10 in the list of the greatest 50 metal bands of all time.
3. They are the only Asian group to ever hit #1 on Billboard's Rock chart
4. In 2015 they were named Women of the Year by Vogue Magazine Japan.
5. They have performed Pain Killer and Breaking the Law with Rob Halford of Judas Priest
6. They have performed Breaking The Law with Chad Smith of the Red Hot Chili Peppers
7. In an interview Corey Taylor of Slipknot was asked what he listened to at home and he said "Baby Metal"
Next I would suggest:
1. Legend of 1997 Head Banger - song is about a 15 year old girl going to her first head banger concert
2. Road of Resistance Live in Japan - their epic masterpiece but you have to stop and talk a lot of it will get blocked.
Who in the name of God listed this band within the top 50 metal bands of all time? That is a freaking joke. Somewhat talented? Sure. Has a schtick? Sure. They wouldn't make my top 200 list.

Babymetal was not named by 10th Greatest it was voted by several thousand fans that are not able rational thought.
As Su-Metal, the lead singer has said, "Babymetal is not really pop or metal. It's Babymetal". This video is live but not really live. It's the studio version of the song laid over a performance video. They actually sound much better live than in studio. Babymetal is one of the best, if not the best, live bands around. The girls do not do any growling but there are some screams. I don't think anyone really knows for sure what the statue is in the background. They can be very mysterious with their lore.
Babymetal songs are all very different from each other so you never get bored listening to them.
These Video is Live version, Live at Makuhari Hall! I have the DVD, It is LIVE
The statue does have meaning, and it relates to the intro narration that is shown at the beginning of their Legend 1997 performance. If someone wants the actual details, I can clarify if you really want to know. In any case, the mythology is known.
KDTGrave - Marimba Covers this video is live but the music video uses studio audio, mainly to filter out crowd noises
Babymetal is not pop or metal. But Idol...
Welcome to Babymetal's galaxy. Gimme Chocolate is often the first thing people listen to of theirs as it is the video that went viral when it came out and it did that because of the "WTF" reactions it would get. It is fun but it is far from being representative of what they can really do. This video has footage from a live performance, the audio is from the studio - which is a shame as they sound far better live.
The statue in the back is a sort of Mary statue but not ... it played a part in this particular show (Legend 1997 - from December 21st 2013) which was all about Su-metal (the lead singer) ending her existence as a J-pop Idol to be reborn as a metal Goddess (this was the day after her 16th birthday) and Babymetal as a band transitioning from an Idol group to become an independent metal band.
You would have to watch the first songs from the show ('Ave Maria' and 'Headbanger night of 15 mix') and the last song ('BABYMETAL Death') to get a better idea of how that worked.
During the show they also transitioned from singing to a backing track (the guys in skeleton suits - Babybones - were miming the instruments) to having a live band (the Kami Band) supporting them for the last 5 songs of the show.
The Kami Band have supported them for the entirety of all live shows since early 2014.
For a far better song with the live audio from the same show and the Kami Band in support I would recommend 'Headbanger' live at Legend 1997 ruclips.net/video/QEsOaMbNFww/видео.html This one is about a girl going to her first metal concert on her 15th birthday, but it is more than that - it is a coming of age, moving on to the next chapter in life song.
The transition never occured to me until just then after reading your comment. They opened with dance/pop and closed with metal.
Also, if you look closely, the statue has Sumetal's facial features. When it breaks during DEATH (another video) its significance as part of the stage becomes clear.
I see you in all reaction video hahaha
Gimme Chocolate is a really fun song but it's one of their goofy songs 😆 They have other more "serious" songs like Road of Resistance (you should try that one next).
That's the beauty of Babymetal and that's why their music is so refreshing, they have silly songs and serious songs, and they mix all metal genres with all kind of other music like... pop, electro, latin rythms, folk, ska, rap, indian music, etc...
When you listen to a Babymetal song you never know what you're gonna get. One song can be raggamuffin-metal and the next one is thrash metal-dubstep. 😂
> raggamuffin-metal
Well... That's a variety we still not have. But I wouldn't mind...
That one is getting hit hard on the copyright strikes and being blocked. Some have gone to a secondary version, but the official version is the necessary one to see. They might have to link & sync, or do a Dailymotion or Vimeo account on that one.
@@mr.osclasses5054 The last few days RoR seems to be doing better again,... it's strange
I see a lot of people suggesting BAND-MAID & some people calling them a metal band, so I'd just like to point out that they're "hard rock" with some metal influences along with many other genres like pop, punk, funk, etc. Anyways, please check them out. They're the best "hard rock" band I've heard in 30yrs.
@Cobb Knobbler let me try & cover everything for you. Am I nuts? Well, if I ever committed a serious crime I doubt I'd be able to use the insanity plee, so I'd have to say no, I'm not nuts, but I have done some crazy things in my life. Best hard rock band "I'VE" heard in 30yrs? YES! Am I serious? YES! Sheltered? Hardly. And finally, I can't tell you how thrilled I am that you're happy for me, and that I found something ...."I love". At 56yrs old, hopefully there's still time for me to adjust my musical tastes to align with yours so that I don't come across as this old grump, living his sheltered life & listening to what? Mediocre rock music? Please give me a list of some of your favorite hard rock bands & I'll give them an honest listen, as I'm always looking to find new bands or artists no matter the genre. Take care.
@@busser649
I'll go a step further.
Band Maid - in five short months - has leapfrogged every other band I've ever loved to become my all-time favourite band.
People who think this is weird are obviously lacking musical taste.
These five women are the tightest group of musicians I have ever seen or heard!
I've ordered and received all six of their albums, and on RUclips Music I've made a playlist of 49 songs.
The closest I've come to that with any other band is 46 (Beatles).
But, by comparison, The Beatles recorded over 200 tracks, while Band Maid has only 70 (that's the total for their six albums anyway).
Let the haters hate. F'ck 'em!!!
@@Bannysadkosays2u A most excellent heavy rock outfit, absolutely. The tightest group of musicians you've ever heard? Perhaps A tier but they are not Rush, I mean have you ever heard Rush?
I never recommend Choco first, but I'm glad your hear anyway. Check out Road of Resistance, Live in Japan for BabyMetal at their most epic.
I think headbanger it’s better 😅
It's funny too, because it's not just a fun song about chocolate, it's about the guilt girls associate with chocolate. Many layers. :)
Band-Maid..........Band-Maid. Band-Maid......... Band-Maid...... Band-Maid
Troy Cheaney: How impolite to just repeat the name like that and then to put a second comment up doing the same,
perhaps asking if they could please listen to one of your favourite bands, would be more polite and appropriate next time.
Midori Midori Midori‼
The whole "myth history" of the band is pretty interesting. The whole Fox God thing came about from a misunderstanding of what the "horns" were at metal concerts. Instead of folding their fingers in, they protruded them and noticed that it looked a lot like a fox head shadow figure. And the Kitsune (fox spirit) is a major part of Japanese folklore, as well as being the name they give that symbol, so they built a whole story around it. The Fox God chose Babymetal as his agents on earth to fight against evil. They also incorporate some Judeo-Christian imagery, such as the Mary statue, crucifixes, etc. Su-Metal, the lead singer, is the true chosen, while Moa-Metal and Yui-Metal are her backups. Some of the in-concert storytelling implies that they are the offspring of Adam and Eve, after the fall, and they are a mix of good and evil, constantly striving to overcome their evil side. The two of them together form a subunit (or used to, until Yui left in 2018) called Black Babymetal, which will usually perform a few songs as a duo while Su takes a break backstage. As Black Babymetal, they have a more impish and mischievous personality, letting their evil side come out, and the Black Babymetal songs convey this in a usually humorous way.
For a great Black Babymetal song, check out Onedari Daisakusan (Christmas-themed version): ruclips.net/video/VQ9qBj_KqR8/видео.html
For a good song that displays some growls, check out "iine!" It's one of the very first singles (2012), and Su does a killer growl after the death metal breakdown, although the death vocals from Yui and Moa earlier in the vid, I don't think are really them: ruclips.net/video/qVdBBOpSoN4/видео.html
For something much more recent, and that shows their versatility, on their new album Metal Galaxy (2019), they explored world music influences, hitting on Bollywood, Celtic/Pirate Metal, EDM, Pop, and Power Metal. Here's Shanti Shanti Shanti, featuring Moa and Su on vocals (Yui is no longer with the band): ruclips.net/video/gQnG_T7kbtY/видео.html
Hope you enjoy, and welcome to the Foxhole!
Karate and Megitsune are my favorite BabyMetal Songs both have such positive messages one is about defeating your inner demons and never giving up and the other is a female empowerment song about not underestimating women.
In their early stages, the backing band consisted of the "Babybones"-a group of nameless individuals dressed in skeleton costumes that would mime live performances while pre-recorded studio tracks were being used.... In late 2012, Babymetal debuted a live band for their live performances which they referred to as "Full Metal Band" - a group of live musicians dressed in white robes and corpse paint.
Personally, I like their song "Sis. Anger" best.
Sis. Anger is Black BabyMetal, so it's probably gone from live performances for good, which makes me really sad.
That’s my fav song too
Welcome to Babymania, they sing from 12 and 13 years old, they have more than 50 spectacular song,
one of his latest successes is BxMxC
That’s apparently Su’s face on the statue. It gets destroyed at the end of that concert to symbolise Su giving up her J-pop life to become the metal goddess. It’s also a homage to Metallica. Look up Babymetal death legend 97 it all happens on there
Babymetal - A kick-ass metal band fronted by J-Pop girls. They have received Rob Zombie's seal of approval.
If you guys liked BabyMetal, you're going to like BAND-MAID. And i recommend their live performance of "Domination", the Feb. 14, 2020 version.
Great Reaction btw, you guys are doing great 👌
This was hysterical, shes trying SO hard to explain babymetal to her girlfriend and all I can think is "you are Not prepared!" Welcome to our world ladies, your gonna love it here.
Babymetal is awesome. Try the all woman j-rock band Band-Maid play Domination live.
Another couple of bands like this are Maid-Aid and Wagakki Band. Of the two I enjoy Wagakki Band because they mix in traditional Japanese music and traditional Japanese musical elements.
Love your reactions! babymetal is quite possibly the most loved and most hated band in the metal scene at the same time. I'm on the love side as a metalhead since early 70's. I recommend Road of Resistance next, live in Japan. It's more metal and it's truly live.
You should watch Babymetal Death from the same concert, Legend 1997, to see why the statue is there.
They aren’t wearing tutus. They are petticoats. Their aesthetic is “goth Lolita”. It was relatively popular at the time in Japan, kinda still is.
Check out their live at Sonisphere video "Ijime Dame Zettai." They had been doing small venues in Europe as that wacky band you saw on RUclips, when they somehow got booked for the main stage at one of the biggest metal festivals in the world. In front of a crowd known for throwing bottles of piss at bands they didn't like. That one set cemented them as the real deal in the metalhead community.
Being a drummer singer in and out of bands for now 40 years.....they are Candy metal.
Candy based on my late 60's/early 70's bubblegum rock...Archies, The Osmond Brothers, Bay City Rollers, and radio mixes of Sweet(Fox on the Run..etc,etc).
Fused with speed metal. I like it......plus....do you hear any "F" bombs....or anger/hate lyrics. Just strength towards being yourself and fighting against bullying. Which is a major thing in Japan with teens.
My new favorite by them is BxMxC......so great..... and the collaboration "kingslayer" with Bring Me The Horizon
Megitsune was the first Babymetal song I heard. I recommend that one as well.
I have heard rumors/guesses that the song title might have quite a bit of a deeper meaning.
"Gimme chocolate" usually were the first english words japanese kids would learn after the end of WWII when approaching GIs that were doing damage assesment of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Great reaction and good read up on BabyMetal. The lead singer Suzuka/SuMetal was the Youngest of the Karen Girl’s when she was 10 years of age. Karen Girl’s sang songs for a Anime series. When the series ran its course Su became the founding member of Sakura Gakuin (Cherry Blossom Academy). Think of it as a entertainment school for young girls. Sakura Gakuin is where BabyMetal was formed as the Heavy Music Club BabyMetal. You mentioned the Fox God. Come with me and let’s time travel to several important levels in the BabyMetal “Fox Hole”. First stop Suzuka/SuMetal’s former girl group Karen Girl’s. Su’s cuteness features her ears stick out slightly and she has a mole at the corner of her mouth. Next level: Moa and Yui’s entrance exam to Sakura Gakuin. Next level: A very early BabyMetal covering the Karen Girl’s “Over the Future”. This is a fan made video. It is brilliantly edited together and you can hear the music style change. ruclips.net/video/-VKW1g5ldnk/видео.html
Hi Leann & Ari,
Great reaction video!
I don't mind the pausing, which seems to be working.
This shouldn't work, but it does; it messes with your mind in a good way.
All I can say is that it is bringing in new fans in both old & young; the future of metal is very safe.
Please react to Megitsune the MV.
I don't react much to things on youtube but I could not stop laughing to the virtual barber. Can you review the virtual barber.
Wait until you both hear ROAD OF RESISTANCE 😊
This comment section now officially belongs to "The One". Welcome the two of you ... You are in for a ride 🤘🦊🤘
I'll keep this brief.
BAND MAID
This band is basically a anime opening band this beat just reminds me of mirai nikki a bit
Literally EVERYONE has the exact same reaction the first time they hear and see Babymetal: "What the f*ck is this and why the f*ck can't I stop watching?!" I'm pretty sure they're 80% of the planet's guilty pleasure. Stay safe everyone. Cheers from the beaches.
⚡ 💀 💕 / 🍫 💝️
You timed the pauses nicely, so that worked out pretty well.
I like that you had stuff to say, rather than just pausing for the sake of pausing.
This footage is from 'Legend 1997', a December 2013 concert celebrating the 16th birthday of the lead singer, Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto).
She is now 22, and Yuimetal (Yui Mizuno) and Moametal (Moa Kikuchi) are 20 years old.
The BABYMETAL members are very aware that their initial impression is often "WTF?".
They compare that to what they first thought when they were introduced to metal music.
This whole concept of combining JPop/Idol music with Metal could have been a disaster, but the quality of the singing, songwriting, choreography and staging take it to another level.
'Gimme Chocolate!!' is definitely one of their "poppier" tracks.
They have been joined on stage for this song by members of Korn, The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and DragonForce.
Obviously not all at the same time. : )
Yui announced she was leaving the group for health reasons in October 2018, but had not been on stage with BABYMETAL for a year before that.
They announced at their first concert of 2019 at Yokohama Arena on June 28th, that a dancing support role would be rotating between three new "Avengers".
They are Riho Sayashi (former Morning Musume), Kano Fujihira (current Sakura Gakuin), and Momoko Okazaki (a Sakura Gakuin graduate).
Sakura Gakuin is the school-themed Idol group (ages 10-15) where BABYMETAL originated as the "Heavy Music Club".
BABYMETAL became an independent group in 2013 when Su "graduated" from Sakura Gakuin.
Yui and Moa kept doing both until they "graduated" in 2015.
My favorite BabyMetal song has to be Road of Resistance! It's a bit more serious and showcases the talent of the band and Su's vocals.
The song is called Take My Chance / Doll $Boxx
To see what they have become, watch BxMxC or PAPAYA from their latest album.
Hey guys.
The pauses are pretty standard on these kinda channels. Make that money.
My fave Babymetal video is "KARATE". Great music video.
Have a good one
Listen, I'm a massive fan of Megadeth....but still love Babymetal, no shame in that.
Check out band-maid domination live at line cube Shibuya!
Looking forward to more baby metal, enjoyed your react. Keep them rolling!
Give MAXIMUM THE HORMONE a listen, they're a Japanese thrash metal band, that dips into mixing pop into their sound, their sound is already fairly weird and interesting to begin with though.
Songs I would suggest: Koi no mega lover, Zetsubou Billy, Heisei Strawberry Vibe, and What's up, people!
Keep it going ladies, this is only the tip of the iceberg. They are very versatile, and high caliber performers. They keep that energy up throughout their hour+ shows.
The band in the back aren't actually playing instruments. I guess they couldn't afford a live band back in the day. But I believe that in this show during the last few songs of the concert, they debuted their live band, the Kami Band, expert musicians in their respective instrument. It really has upped their shows.
Always try and watch live versions of their songs if you can. I recommend karate live at download festival 201l6 and road of resistance official live in Japan.
You were right the Kami Band came in for the 5 encore songs in this show and have been ever present ever since, but they actually debuted in October 2012 for the encores at Legend I and then played a couple of festivals and the encores in a couple more shows before this one.
So if you make the typical "Devil Horns" known in any metal genre and then extend out the middle and ring finger to sit on the thumb pad that is the Fox God..lol
Just watch Headbanger Live (Makuhari Messe) version or Road of Resistance live. She has a more NWOBHM vocal style...or I should say the lead singer actually sang rather than yelling in key...ala James Hetfield style.
The skeleton dudes (Babybones) aren't actually playing their instruments. The girls were performing to a backing track. Now they perform with the Kami Band, real musicians. Babymetal is the shizz.
Thank you! Great video, as always. As I said before, the other favorite of mine is "Rondo of Nightmare - live with mischief of god intro". A more recent, heavier one. And has the Kami Band, true metal beasts.
babymetal and bandmaid are legendary bands noice
Leann & Ari,
Whenever I recommend for someone to check out Babymetal, I don't recommend Gimme Chocolate as a starting point, because it's so outdated (over six years old at this point) in terms of what they're currently doing as a group, and also because this song tends to make people tend to think they're some kind of "not really metal" novelty, which is completely not the case.
The truth of the matter is that Babymetal is probably the most innovative and interesting thing to happen in metal in at least a decade. They've completely invented their own subgenre, and they do a masterful job of keeping their music fresh, and constantly incorporating new elements and influences. Not to mention they put on some of the funnest and best live shows around - they really are a group that needs to be seen live.
At any rate, I recommend maybe reacting to some of their newer stuff, even if that means some fan uploads - some decent fan uploads are available. I would recommend maybe finding a decent upload of them performing "BxMxC" and "Kagerou" for example. There are also compilation videos of excellent songs like "Syncopation." There are also official videos that show what this group is capable of, including "Road of Resistance - Live in Japan." And if you have any doubt as to whether this band is metal or not, then I suggest reacting to the Legend 1997 - "Babymetal Death" clip and the performance of Headbangeeeeer!!!!" from the Legend 1997 show as well.
If you are confused or have any questions about what you see, just ask. I'll be happy to clarify.
At the same time, this is the video that went viral around the world. "Doki Doki Morning" had moderate success online before it, but this is the one that put their name out there for people to sit there and go "WTF?!" It may be an outdated video, but they still perform it in their live sets as recently as earlier this year. I totally agree that it gives them the "not really metal novelty" to them, but they are reacting to what someone suggested. That said, I hope they do many many more reactions to them. I think they will love the group and become huge fans as they go.
Distortion feat Alistair white-gluez. Arch Enemy
Leann really made her homework. I appreciate that!
This was the first song I listened to, wasn't to interested, but I heard ROAD OF RESISTANCE then I was hooked, try that song it amazing.
What about this? ruclips.net/video/8WBDiLMNZcE/видео.html
"Starlight" is a more recent track dedicated to one of their members who passed away. Hope you like it.
The girls don't growl, but the producer hired someone to do the growls.
I freaking love BABYMETAL!
10:08 Haha "that's just all" she said. Oh you are in for a treat. You're gonna be pulled down the the fox hole. I suggest reacting to BABYMETAL - Megitsune official video. Cheers
i can see how people would say it's not metal.
despite the.... everything about it, it's just a bit different. and people _love_ excluding slightly different from their group.
Welcome down the Fox Hole! Where ya been? LOL!. My journey down the Fox Hole happened in April 2019. And now... I've joined the BABYMETAL fan club The One 2020. Dude, I have Never joined a fan club for Any music group, let alone a Japanese group. I Don't Even Speak/Read Japanese! But here I am, a grown man who grew up in the Grunge Era of American music, now blasting Kawaii Metal out the car speakers on my commute to work. WHY? Because that's what's called The Power of Music. 🤘🦊🎸🇯🇵🎶 You two will be seeing epic performances from Long Ago. You will see how 3 teen ladies + 1 narly band from Japan affect Thousands of gathered mortals. And YES: You will be Headbanging...and that's OK. Enjoy your journey. The One will be there to guide you to the awesomeness that is BABYMETAL.
noice reaction my beautiful ladies. babymetal is awesome
Great reaction video.
Are you ready to check out Band-Maid? They are a Rock/Metal all female band from Japan. Different from Babymetal. Awesome
I would check out Megitsune by Babymetal, next reaction
Definitely check out their other songs, road of resistance live in japan, rondo of nightmare w/ mischief of gods intro, papaya!, theres a lot more to babymetal. Would love to see more reacts- subscribed!
oh the early years of babymetal... :) ..... react to all their live concerts...
You should check out their song The One it’s mainly English mixed a little Japanese, another band would be Maximum the Hormones
Awesome reaction, but you really do need to hear at least 3 different Babymetal songs because they cover so many different sub-genres under the metal banner to really get an idea of what they are all about.
Great reaction! If you want to checkout some other BabyMetal songs look for “Catch Me If You Can” live at Tokyo dome. That one is more Cute/Jpop but features more of the band. Or check out my absolute fav BM song, “Akatsuki” live at Tokyo dome. That one is a solo from their lead singer, showing her vocal power/range and is a much more metal song. Both are great, react to both pls😊
Although the large statue in the background may appear to look like Mary, due to it's more Asian appearance in the face it is probably more akin to the "Kannon Bosatsu" of Japanese Buddhism, also know in Chinese Buddhism as "Guanyin" or "Qianyin" - "The Goddess of Mercy".
This band has evolved so much and it is incredible where they stand today.
They bring so much fun and joy, but keep it metal along with multiple fusions of other genres INCLUDING rap!
You should definitely check them out by order of albums;
Self titled suggestions:
1. Megitsune
2. Doki Doki Morning
3. Onedari Daisakusen
4. Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!
Metal Resistance suggestions:
1. Karate
2. YAVA!
3. Sis. Anger
4. Road of Resistance (SUPER popular with reactions - ruclips.net/video/zTEYUFgLveY/видео.html )
Metal Galaxy suggestions:
1. Shanti Shanti Shanti
2. Distortion
3. Pa Pa Ya
4. BxMxC
Im sure others will chip in their suggestions!
Instant Subscribe btw!
The pauses you made were okay and you still kept them to a minimum. I can tell that you two are really trying to do things 'the right way', trying to please everybody at once. YT must be happy or I would not have been able to watch this at all. Pretty cool! I know I'm happy with it.
Supporting band members? They ARE the band. 😆
LOVE Babymetal! More More Babymetal! Road of Resistance - official live!
Every song they do is completely different . If you listen too three live songs , you will fall in the Fox hole . Check out Headbanger live . Howdy from the Texas panhandle .
I think the statue is of Kannon Bosatsu , the Japanese name for Quanyin the female form of Buddha
You have completed the first of your 3 song free trial of BABYMETAL. In two songs or less, you will enter the "fox hole" and become a fan. I am subscribing in hopes of more reactions to BM!! Great reaction and good use of the pause to actually talk about things you're seeing and hearing, not just to put some inane question out there. Thankfully, you did research beforehand to at least have the gist of the group to go on. I have only been a fan for a little over a month, but they are friggin' awesome! A lot of people have and will recommend "Road of Resistance" Live in Japan for you to react to. It is a must, but BEWARE, the YT bots are out in force on that one and block it if you aren't careful, and even sometimes if you are. Best options: link & sync (which sucks for people watching on phones), or create an account on the Vimeo or Dailymotion web sites and upload the reaction(s) there, but put a video here about it and just ask that we watch the whole video here to keep your view numbers up.
Their live stuff is where it is at, but their music videos are awesome and need to be seen for various reasons. Other great songs you need to checkout by BABYMETAL:
"Megitsune" - both the official video and a live version. (older song)
"Pa Pa Ya Featuring F. Hero" (newer song)
"Da Da Dance" (newer song)
"Ijime, Dame, Zettai" Sonisphere 2014 - This is where they broke out in the western music scene. It was their first big even outside Asia and they were warned the crowd can get pretty rowdy. They might be booed off stage or even have stuff thrown at them. By the end of their set, which was this song, they had the crowd chanting for more.
"Rondo of Nightmare with Mischiefs of God Intro" - So good! (middle-ish song, not quite old or new. This is also only with the lead singer, Su or Su-Metal)
"Karate" - both the official music video and their live version at Download 2016. The official video is a piece of art. (Same as the last)
"Doki Doki Morning" - Their first song released and first video. You can see the massive difference in how they are now compared to then stylistically, musically, and budget-wise, not just age.
SO many others to suggest!!
Also, Yui and Moa, the background singers and dancers on either side of Su, the lead singer, sing their own songs and are called "Black BABYMETAL" because their songs are darker than the main ones with Su.
Welcome to our little corner of the world, I hope you enjoy your stay ^^
Songs to recommend would be...
- Road of Resistance (Live in Japan)
- Rondo of Nightmare (With Mischief of God intro) Live at Budokan Black Night 2014
- The One (Official live)
- Ijime, Dame, Zettai - Live at Sonisphere 2014, UK (Official)
- Death Legend 1997 (complete)
I think that's a decent list to get you started ^^
When they sing "Death" at the end of the show they crucify the main girl singer in front of that statue.
Waaaaaat 😮 damn they're hard-core lol
Their super Ballad is called "The One" /bring a tissue to keep the tears away 😉
LOVE this band they got me hooked on Japanese metal bands. You ladies have to check out Ladybaby either Starless_Sky or HATEN NI RAIMEI
Don't worry about the fake band Babybones. They got replaced by the very real Kami band after, especially for their second album
Great channel
Thanks my dear!
I always have fun watching their videos, you are both beautiful and funny! Please react to other bands in Japan like Maximum The Hormone, Versailles, Anna Tsuchiya. Peace!
Baby Metal = Symphonic Speed Metal, and in some songs Power Metal.
what ?
Hi, great reaction! new subscriber here!
Please do more BABYMETAL, their song has different metal style each to another. The journey is just so fun! :)
Megitsune and then read the lyrics 👌🏻
if you wanna react to more BabyMetal, another good song is 'KARATE'. 'PA PA YA' is also cool too [:
Please do BAND MAID they are probably the best band in the world right now and the best all girl band that the world has ever seen and they don't block. Try the recently released live version of DOMINATION that came out a couple of months ago from the line cube concert in Shibua.
They are an amazing band. I love them.
You should check out their song Catch Me if You Can
I highly recommend the band Lovebites and their song When Destinies Align.
More BabyMetal 🤘🏻💀🤘🏻
pls react to "babymetal - road of resistance live official" that vid is dope. they all three were modeling since being a child 4 ish years... they all joined a casting agency and started in pop bands. this "babymetal" was just a sideproject based on an idea of one of the workers at their agency. ;)
Awesome reaction !!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻🤟🏻
Welcome to your 1st step on the journey of Japanese music, just a quick warning, it's very addictive.
Babymetal themselves don't do growling, I think your getting mixed up with Brooken By the Scream, a band tht's just nuts.
There a strange thing about Japanese metal/rock it so good. Here are some other bands to check out, for now.
Band-Maid
Unlucky Morpheus
Lovebites
Fate Gear
Mary's Blood
Brooken By the Scream

Well you had your WTF moment now the question is do you say" no not for me " and few years down the line see another of there performances and say "what have i missed " .
Or watch more and get blown away by how good they are and realise you need to see them live .
Su the main singer voice has only got better in the years since this song . Moa and Yui are also very talented although Yui has left for undisclosed health reasons .
As one reactor who has seen many bands said . As far as performance and production of there shows no one is anywhere near them .
Hope you continue your journey as i hate anyone to miss out on BabyMetal. Road of Resistance live in Japan is a good one which has been surrgest already
🤘😷🤘
Glad you're enjoying Babymetal. Gimmie Chocolate is, in my opinion, a horrible first impression song. This is more of a song to provoke the "WTF" reaction from people, which is why it's usually the most requested. If you're looking for some other good Babymetal songs to check out (which, imo better showcase their talent), try one of these:
BABYMETAL - Road of Resistance - Live in Japan (OFFICIAL): ruclips.net/video/zTEYUFgLveY/видео.html
BABYMETAL - KARATE (OFFICIAL): ruclips.net/video/GvD3CHA48pA/видео.html
BABYMETAL - PA PA YA!! (feat. F.HERO): ruclips.net/video/oO7Y8NsnkRg/видео.html
BABYMETAL - Headbanger (live): ruclips.net/video/QEsOaMbNFww/видео.html
BABYMETAL - MEGITSUNE: ruclips.net/video/cK3NMZAUKGw/видео.html
As for copyright blocks, an idea to consider is if it gets blocked, you could upload the video to another site like dailymotion or vimeo, and then for youtube post a quick 1 minute video saying "Hey guys, we did this reaction but the RUclips bots are blocking it, so see the description for a link to dailymotion/vimeo/whereever". Not ideal, but better then wasting all that time video editing ;)
I like the “Road of Resistance” video. Megitsune is probably my favorite Baby Metal song tho! You should definitely react to both!
