If im not wrong, Play was originally supposed to be an instrumental track, but Saiki liked it so much that she asked Miku to write lyrics for it
You are correct.
Yup
Correct.
Correct. And now, she doesn’t even sing half the chorus!😝
Its better that way though. The crowd participation is a huge part of what makes it magic.
@@Parker--And I've always thought that Saiki should use the Japanese callouts at all live shows for Play, as pretty much every big Band Maid fan knows how to answer them. It just makes for a more fun song.
Talk about "JOY"....wait till you watch "Freedom" LIVE.....from the same show.
Yep now that's some joy right there.😁
That's what I was thinking too.
"Freedom" is a pretty simple song, but it's one of my favourites. That performance in particular always makes me happier. I can be feeling kind of crummy and that one always improves my mood.
@@iDEATH agree the studio version is in my bottom 1/4 while the live is in my top 1/4 Unfortunately when I saw them play it in 2019 in LA there was no solo either night :( was still a very fun song live.
Hi, I'm a Swedish old man of 75 young years.
Have seen and heard many bands live during the 60s-70s-80s.
Thought most things since then were not good.
But a big BUT, started listening to Japanese bands 4 years ago.
Shit, rock music was back. Band Maid my big favorites and hope with yours
support that they will succeed. Your joy is contagious. Have a good one. Love from me.
I've got two years on you and I felt exactly the same way. Japanese bands, and especially female Japanese bands, have become the keepers of the flame for the rock genre for all of us die-hard older rock fans. The last 5 years of listening to and watching Band Maid, and them seeing them live 3 times, has cemented my feeling in the matter. They are the best thing to happen to all rock genres since the mid-to-late 1970's. And then when you add in groups like Nemophila, Lovebites, Gacharic Spin, Doll$Box, Trident, SCANDAL and even some older groups like Stereopony, Girlfriend and others, it's just miraculous.
Hi Mr Swedish man. Remember "You're not old, you're just one day older from dying young".🙂
I'm a 75-year-old old-timer type guy with a proud Swedish heritage who agrees with you 100%. Never have seen such a consistently great Rock group such as them in literally ages. I've been following Band-Maid for the last 8 years and have repeatedly been amazed on how talented and dedicated they are in making the best rock music on the planet. There are other great Japanese bands out there of course, but Band-Maid is my favorite as they made me realize that Rock is not dead, it just regrouped and moved to Japan.
I'm not as "experienced" as you and I'm not Swedish, either, but I saw you talking about a big BUT and it caught my attention.🤣
@@patron40silver Oh you.🤭
One of my absolute favorite parts of this is when Saiki makes faces at Akane through the drum set to try and make her laugh and instead you can hear in Saiki’s voice that Akane makes her almost laugh 😂
Akane pops her tongue out at each pause/ pose with stick in the air 🤪😁
I have yet to see a reactor catch that.
Saiki cracks up in the live video of "Real Existence" too, dancing around with Misa, who breaks out in an uncharacteristic grin (she's usually the stern serious one on stage 😀 )
czcams.com/video/-qQnKILR5u0/video.html
If you watch the lives they are always thing to catch akane off guard it happens all show including omjini time but she get back at them to
Pleeeease do a react to some (any!!) of Miku's irresistible Omajinai " pieces ! ....mad and zany contrast to Miku's moving and profound and heartfelt side.
Play was originally an instrumental before Saiki fixed Miku with one of her piercing tsundere gazes and asked her to add some lyrics to it.
Hence its musical intricacy.
🤣🤣🤣
Akane and MISA are the best rhythm section ever!
"They are playful!"...yep, that's Band-Maid!
They always do their best to make their fans have a good time,
and they never forget to have fun themselves on stage.
Akane (Drum) liked Miku's "SAY" shout so much, she clipped that part and made a short video of "SAY" shout repeated several times and sent the video to other members. They all loved it and teased Miku about it.😂
and fans all love that too!
You will love the documentaries - their story is so unique.
In the "Domination" video you were amused by Miku hopping over the stage. During Kanami's very last solo right before the song ends it was that time again.
For connecting with the crowd, you haven't even gotten to hear their MCs or Omajinai Time. They are a lot of fun on stage all the time.
Sent Ryan a msg suggesting he should try n get her on for an interview. Princess in the making
@@eaglez1901 I think she's already there!
Best part of the show....
@@armynurseboy No doubt, po! Moe!~ Moe!~
For anyone who wants to see it, I recorded the entire Omajinai Time from the show in Dallas on my channel.
my first Band Maid song, "Freedom" live. i said wow!! second song "Onset" live . i said I'M ALL IN FOREVER!!! i not even gonna mention "Manners/Black Hole"
yep, Manners/Black Hole pulled me in, then locked the door !.........help.
They have changed up this video ... most seem to think it was to show MIKU's progress on guitar ... but the old version features a MISA MISA MISA bass solo to start. PLAY was originally written as an instrumental, but Saiki liked it and asked MIKU to add lyrics, and here we are :) . This song is very popular and has been part of every live performance since it was written I believe.
Many BAND MAID songs have subtitles ... even some of the older songs like THRILL and CHOOSE ME have had them added since KATE was MAID for Netflix.
This is also the song that MIKU's epic "SAY" comes from. They toured here in the US in 2022, but the 2023 10th anniversary tour here was even more extensive. MIKU is a genius lyricist. Sing along, or crowd participation sections, are written into many of their songs.
The played "Play" at Islington, London in 2019 & they even had a different MISA/Kanami intro to the famous one. I blame MISA's rumbling bass for making my heart beat all erratically....but i still love her.😌
@@GaryHolloway-810 I don't think you are the only one suffering from an erratic heartbeat due to MISA MISA MISA ;) .
Hi Panic! Not quite played at every show, in 2023 they played it live 31 times out of 42 shows. It was the 10th most played song. Last year "Domination", "No God" and "Endless Story" were played at every show (42/42). My biggest shock looking at the stats is "Real Existence" wasn't played once at all last year, which really surprised me.
@@Davey-Boyd Domination I knew ... but I thought PLAY was also included. Sorry for the folks who did not get to see it :( .
Hello from England.
Love your reactions. You really pick up on the JOY that they bring.
Two years ago, aged 68, I was stranded in a musical desert. Then I discovered reaction videos and I watched young Americans discovering the bands that I loved when I was young.
After watching a Canadian girl react to Led Zeppelin, I was all set to call it a day but something persuaded me to look at what else she listened to.
I scrolled past lots of K Pop boy bands but stopped dead when I saw a thumbnail of what looked like a girl in a maid costume playing a guitar.
I watched the young lady from "Verdy Channel" react to Domination and almost had a heart attack.
I was amazed, stunned, shocked and totally uplifted by Band Maid's wonderful music.
Two years on nothing has changed. They astound me with everything that they do. But that's enough about me.
Can I suggest that you don't just react to Dice / Hate? from Lollapalooza...
do the entire performance. You will hear a lot of songs that you don't know and experience the most inspirational ending to a musical performance that you will ever hear. Just saying.....
Keep up the good work "Princess".
Watching Nitt react to the Maids and just laugh, spark with joy makes me so happy! I really love how much you like the Maids and enjoy their music and art ♥
🥹❤️🥹❤️🥹
Never seen a reactor have soooo much fun with a reaction! Love it!
Ahh, you found my favorite Band-Maid song. It's so tricksy... It is very playful, so is the "Freedom" live, they could play them in their sleep so they move around and goof off a lot. Thanks for the reaction!
Edit: "super silly about it"? Oh dear, it's the best part of the song!
Talk about audience participation, wait until you experience Miku's Omajinai time or Magic Spell time !! The concert suddenly turns into a comedy show.😂
😏♥️🎙🎸🥁😎🤘
This is what it sounds like to live inside BAND-MAID's heads & i love it.😁
Truthometer is at 💯% ........... again
@@curtisrrobles7885 Hi Curtis. You know that hat you wear in a lot of photos, what style of hat is it actually called?
Guten Morgen und weiterhin gute Besserung, Gary!❤😂
@@tasminoben686Hey i get a "Good morning" & a "Get well soon" in the same comment. Arigato Ben.😌
😏
Yes thats why Band Maid is the best band in the world! And thank you for your great reaction!
Band maid lives even better than the video believe or not❤
Thank you Miss Picc ! Your Band Maid reactions are so genuine and intense that I'm almost expecting them to be followed by a commercial for ' incontinence undergarments ' ! 🤪
Your excitement and joy is a Sunday treat for sure ! ♥️
You know their names! Thanks for being invested in them. I’ve seen them 5 times over the past 2 years. Each show is unique. And yes, the crowd is part of the show. That’s what makes it so fun. Can’t wait to follow your Band-Maid journey.
Their usual live takes around two + @ hours. During the whole show, this kind of tension and energy continue. Really great and exhausting after the show😂 Real rock stars that we have dreamed of 🤘🏻🎀
I was at the 25 Oct 2022 show with my wife and we had such a blast. Best concert experience in decades. One thing about their writing - all members are allowed to shine. At almost any point, you can pick out one of them and concentrate on them and still feel the whole song. Oh, and I believe that this band is a band of 5 soloists playing the same song without bumping into each other.
It's hilarious how tickled you are to be listening to Band Maid. Not unusual, frankly.
I was at their NYC show on 10/28 and the New Jersey show on 10/30 and it was the best live shows I have been to since seeing The Young Rascals and Blood, Sweat and Tears in NYC in 1967 and The Doors at the Whiskey a Go Go in LA in 1968. They are a true phenomenon.
I was also at the 25 Oct 2022 show and agree wholeheartedly. I also drove down to Charlotte to see them again in May 2023. My only regret is that I didn't manage to see more shows on that tour.
DC and Charlotte also
There's another Maidiac named Alexei who does excellent Band-Maid cello covers. Perhaps one day a flute and cello cover???
😮 yes please!
Love this reaction and very happy you enjoyed it 😊 This is a good song to listen to when you just want a pick-me-up! I always giggle when you see Saiki playing with Akane and hiding in front of her drums, peeking at her, almost laughing through a couple words lol
As far as Miku. You will find with her backing vocals that she is a woman of MANY voices. Her range is insane and her balance with Saiki is phenomenal. The song Wonderland is a great example of Miku handling both very low and high balances!
as others have said Play was originally an instrumental but Saiki liked it so much she bullied Miku to write lyrics so she could join in. also notice when Saiki goes and makes faces at Akane the drummer to try to make her laugh only for Akane to pull faces back at her making Saiki giggle through her lines. its at 7min into your video
Nice! One of my favorite Band-Maid songs. My wife and I had the pleasure of seeing them live in Osaka back in Oct on our first ever trip to Japan. It was a fantastic show and the whole crowd was so fun and interactive. We also got to see them enjoy some cake for Miku's birthday and sing her Happy Birthday as a crowd. They're wonderful live.
Band-Maid, live, is a immersive experience! I've been going to concerts since the early 70's, and I have never enjoyed myself as much as the four times I've seen Band-Maid! These ladies are just over the top fun!
I saw them live in Nashville this past May. It was without doubt the best concert I have EVER attended. I'm 64 years old and have seen many, many of the rock greats. These girls blow them ALL away with their writing as well as performance talents. I also watched, via live stream, their 2023 World Tour Finale at Yokohama Arena in November. Nearly 4 hours of non-stop energy and by far the best live performance I've ever seen, bar none. I can't wait for you to hopefully witness this performance when it is release on blueray at the end of March.
Love your reactions and keep on loving Band-Maid!!
"I know I can do it KITTO
I know I can do it MOTTO
Be more existent!"
If you like the interaction between band and fans, wait until you witness "Omajinai Time," or Miku's Magic Spell Time. They usually take a break in the middle of the show and Miku interacts with the show in a very cute and fun way. It's a little bit different every time, but it's always so much fun! Miku is such a natural at this and her masters and princesses love her for it! I will tell you nothing else about Omajinai Time so as to not spoil it, but you should check it out.
I have been lucky to have seeen them live 4 times when they came to America. They write great songs, and they are great musicians and wonderful people. They love each other and they love their fans. It's amazing how much they notice people when you are near to them. I've had some very cool interactions with Kanami, Miku, and Misa (Misa BTW is drop dead gorgeous in person.). She was already my favorite bassist. When I saw her in person and could see all the work she puts on the bass, it's amazing.
Live or studio?. Well, first of all, they are excellent music writers, so any song you listen will be full of details and surprises. Then they are excellent musicians so their live performances are at the level of their writing (very selfdemanding!). But above all, they are an onstage animal, professional entertainers who make every time they go on stage a different experience. We fans are especially grateful for all of that. So... there is no chance to choose wrong!!
Please add BAND-MAID - “Daydreaming”, “Manners”, “Influencer”, “Choose me” to your playlist. You won't regret it. And we will again rejoice at your reaction.
Wanna hear Miku's voice, try "Sayonakidori", one of their best songs in my opinion, sung entirely by Miku.
I wish she would focus on the famous acoustic Christmas concert for her BandMaid reactions in December 2024. That was a musical highpoint of my 66 yrs of listening to music. Easily top 5 and I've heard a lot of televised concerts
The "Say" that launched a thousand towels 😂
When Saiki yells Moto, that’s her screaming for the audience to give them more.
Moto is more in Japanese.
What annoys me at concerts now is people feeling the need to record the show. One reason the shows in Japan are so lively is recording is prohibited. Put down your phones and enjoy the experience.
A Band Maid show IS pure joy. There will always be a mix of emotions but it ALWAYS comes back to joy. Seen them 11 times going back to 2017 and every single time it has been a soul rejuvenating experience. The "experience" actually starts about 15 hours before the show when fans start to line up for a 7pm show. It's like Band Maid tailgating with food, stories, games and merch exchange.
I very much appreciate your taking the time to breakdown the music. Great fun watching your reaction to this song.
In the early round of the US tour..Akane eats a banana, signs the banana skin..and throws it into the audience!..hehe....She done it a few times. I think on her birthday there were towels handed out with Banana's on them..so when she eat the banana the fans held them up!....Someone also gave her a gorilla stuffy and a squeeky banana toy!. ..There are clips of these on YT....Also a great clip when someone threw a stuffy toy onto the stage and it fell into Akane's drums and made her jump!...hehe..They are truly special..Long May They Reign!.
The Maids just dropped a new video on their CZcams channel.
I found out about band maid about a year ago when I got out of high school and I fell in love with their music. I started exploring music outside of the bubble I was in as a girl in ny who didn’t have a developed music taste lmao. When I was tired of all the music I was used to my friends and family playing I started exploring music from all over the world, I’m talking from kpop to heavy metal and I found a lot of cool stuff and artists to be a fan of. To this day though band maid has still kept their number one spot in my heart when it comes to music, they just keep impressing me more and more it’s insane. When I first saw them I had no clue what I was in for I just remember thinking about how pretty Misa and Saiki were😭 then they started playing and it blew my mind. But yea all that’s just to say it’s cool to see other women reacting to them and I hope their fan base and demographic grows, esp here in the US so I can catch them live🤞
It’s hard to love an all woman group killin’ it on stage. When the first video was sent to me, I was sold. Their talent is out of this world. And the joy they spread to their audiences is just incredible! Needless to say, I’m glad to be here. Lol
( I think you mean It;s hard to NOT love.....)@@NittPicc
It's ok I pretty much reacted to Band-maid like this every time I listened to them for the first five years, now I just grin after I pick my jaw up from the floor, pretty much listened to them every day for the last eight years, thats a bit mad.
Nittpic- you are one of the very select class of reactors who really enjoy their band-Maid encounters! Your joy and laughter of the listening experience is just too enjoyable to witness…Please keep enjoying the music of Band-Maid - you get it! Thanks…Peace & Respect from Montreal, 🇨🇦
From the very start she was/is damn near my favorite BandMaid reactor. You can't fake that much joy & fun.
What a joyful Band-Maid reaction. You clearly channel their energy during your reaction.
Amazing stuff !
Saw them live this past summer and they are absolutely incredible live. Best show I've ever been to.
This is by far one of the best reactions to this song. Thank your for that. What you missed, understandably, is that when Saiki was in front of Akane, Akane was making faces at Saiki and you can actually hear Saiki trying to crack up while singing. They absolutely LOVE to have fun with each other on stage.
One MAJOR element of the Band-Maid live show is the MANDATORY crowd participation. They feed off of the crowd so much and the more the crowd is into the show the more they give back. Its GLORIOUS.
You have learned the names of five people perfectly!
Liam Gallagher said in January 2024 that the music industry is full of "me, myself, and my solo stars" and "no one wants to be in a band anymore."
I would like to hear how he would feel if he sees BAND-MAID.
For Band-Maid the studio version is really where a song begins, almost a template. If you watch a live from a few years later they've incorporated intros, added parts or little guitar licks. They change up tones on the instuments, Saiki sings it a little differently, they also intentionally incorporate sing along parts to a lot of their songs. A bunch have "whoa" and "yeah" parts. They said since they have a lot of international fans they wanted parts where everyone can sing with them. So live with Band-Maid live versions are kind of the complete vision of the song
That spot where you described as the most playful, is my favourite spot, too. The playful way Kanami let a note slide semitone up to give an unexpected pause before Akane double bass leading to another Kanami genius before her going back to main riff, is so Band-Maid. The way Saiki let Miku's lyrics flow so well "playfully" is so Band-Maid, with prominent Bass and the way Saiki and Miku arrange vocal lines / trade offs - I mean, the whole TEAM is playing around each other and is so infectious. I feel your joy😂.
At the end, when Kanami returns her seat to the upright position, she is actually going over to start Domination ;) So I guess you watched them in the wrong order ;) hehe
This is my first video of these girls. My life has improved exponentially… I am very grateful for your video.
Welcome!!! I’m glad you’re here! 🥳
In their shows they also have Miku time. The music takes a break and Miku comes out and engages with the audience. It's amazing to see her take control of the entire crowd.
It is such a joy watching a reactor enjoy Band Maid as much as I do. You catch all the details with MISA doing incredible trade offs with Miku, Akane and Kanami. These ladies are the BEST!! I love Saiki’s vocals, but you are the first reactor to comment on Miku’s backup vocals on this track. Honestly, Miku is the most ADORABLE back up vocalist on the planet. I saw Band Maid last year live on the 10th anniversary tour. Not to rub it in, but I’m sure they’ll be back!! I LOVE BAND MAID❤
This song has had a number of introductions over the years. They are all awesome! When you're in the crowd, you don't know what's happening or which song is about to start. You _really_ need to go see them if they are performing anywhere near you.
Your reaction videos are always so much fun as well as informative, especially for us non-musical idiots, LOL! Here's something for you to watch for. In every live performance, the rest of the band likes to mess with Akane periodically during the show. They will go to her kit and make faces at her trying to make her laugh. Akane will often return the favor and make faces back at them. They all do it, even Saiki. Misa is generally stone cold on stage - she is the Barefoot Assassin after all - but she has a great sense of humor and loves making faces at Akane. If you pay close attention in this video, you can see some of that going on. Akane will hold one stick up and stick out her tongue. They do this every show! It's fun to watch for.
You mentioned how tightly together the bass and drums are. If you watch Misa's feet, she kicks her shoes off if possible before concerts, and told us the reason is to feel the drums more immediately to lock in her timing to Akane.
I have read that most of them use a click track to assist with timing. EXCEPT MISA.
Akane is her timer.
You are absolutely correct NittPicc the legal drug that BAND-MAID dispenses is ................ PURE JOY!!!
As a musician I’ve replayed the intro so many times lol. They are so stupidly tight, for some reason I really am impressed when Kanami comes back in after MISA (50s original video) and it’s so dead on perfect. Even playing against a click their level of precision is absurd.
Another great reaction, your reaction is what a lot of the fans felt when hearing Band-Maid for the first time. Thank you for these reactions.
Miku has said that this is one of her favorite songs to Play because it's so much fun! They do seem to really enjoy playing this one, po! Watching your obvious joy at this video is so cool too! You are a Maidiac Princess!
Man, it's very inspiring to see Miku playing along with the other and remembering that she didn't even know how to play chords in Thrill
This was the 21st song of a 23 song set (surprised you didn't hear Kanami's bleed in to the beginning of Domination 🤣). When you get the chance, you should watch/listen to this concert from Shibuya from start to finish. I have been going to rock concerts and watching recorded rock concerts since the early 80s, and I can't remember a better full concert experience than this one, and their Studio Coast and Zepp Toyko from '17/'18 concerts are top notch as well.
Thanks. My Sunday is off to a good start.
I am a Japanese "Maidiac" since about 2017 and I still never get tired of Band-Maid. In fact, I like them more and more. I have listened to many different bands and music, both Japanese and foreign, regardless of genre , but I have never seen a band like this before. I think it's because they are all so hard working to grow day by day, and they all have different personalities, but they are all very wonderful human beings. I look forward to many more Band-Maid reaction videos in the future.
Also, since you are a professional flutist, I would like to ask you, have you ever heard of the “Kyoto Tachibana High School Brass Band”, which has many fans all over the world because they play while dancing, despite being a club activity of Japanese high school students?
They have already participated in the Rose Parade in California twice and are scheduled to participate again next year, and I believe they are the first school to participate three times. In 2018, there was a flutist who participated despite having one prosthetic leg. Search "Kyoto Tachibana Rose Parade" on CZcams and you will find many videos. Please take a look！
That band is AMAZING!
I really love the joy that these videos are giving you, because it’s the exact experience. I went through six months ago when I discovered BAND-MAID and really got it on. The live shows are amazing and well worth going to, I got to see them in Detroit last year, and it was the best concert experience I’ve ever had.
I also really like talking about the musicality and the talent of band and you are correct. They are all fantastic players. And they also share their joy, playfulness, and skill with the band in every show. One thing I would note for you is on some of these live videos that they put out they usually have closed. Captioning turned on that they’ve done so that could help you with the lyrics as well.
I was coming home from work when I remembered it was Sunday and I knew your reaction would be coming :) When it comes to audience interaction, you haven't seen anything yet ! 'Freedom' live has to be your next step on the journey. Enjoy !!
I've never seen anyone get so happy about a song they started laughing!😂
FYI, the Saiki portion of the documentary just got updated!
BTW: In a few hours the remake of Saiki´s Documentary in Ohrenje´s Channel
I'm pretty sure the "BAND-MAID smile" is now a recognized medical condition - for which no cure is needed. 😉🤘✌
The cure is MORE BAND-MAID! 😂😁
Welcome home Princess NittPicc! I'm looking forward to Sundays now thanks to you. I hope you are having a wonderful day! When Kanami wrote this one, she planned on it being an instrumental for giving Saiki a rest, but Saiki liked the song so much that she asked Miku to write lyrics for it. I don't know if you caught it, but there was a point towards the beginning after the lyrics started, when Miku went over to Akane, I think she was making faces at her to make her laugh. If you ever see the members of the band gather around Akane, they are probably making faces at her to make her laugh or make a mistake. Akane seems to love it, since she makes faces right back at them. Also, during this song, Akane made Saiki laugh just a little bit. You can see them playing with Akane during the live versions of "Domination" and "Freedom." I'm betting you are going to love the "Dice/Hate?" video even though the director wasn't great about switching the camera spots. On another note, our favorite Maids released a new live video yesterday for "Unleash." I loved the live video, but I think I still kind of prefer the original music video mainly because of all the Easter Eggs for their fans and that it had them as anime characters for parts of the video. Please take very good care of yourself and have a wonderful week.
Yeah Princess Picc you absolutely must see the Unleashed!!!!! video original pleeeaaazzzee. React to the live Unleashed first if you must but thr MV will blow your penny loafers apart!
ANOTHER awesome reaction, Maidiac Princess NittPicc! You're as infectious as The Maids. EASILY one of the best reactors I've seen. Thanks much for goin' down the pigeonhole! 🕊🕊
“Be more existent!” “There is a way out. It’s gonna be alright. Let go of your mind. SHEIKU BODI!”
I was too slow to buy tickets to their 2018 visit to San Francisco. (I had never seen a Japanese band sell out a show in the Bay Area before, so I thought I had plenty of time.) You know I didn’t make that mistake twice. Now I’ve seen them in three cities across two states.
Can’t wait to see which song you pick next. Maybe the live version of Manners and Black Hole, streamed during the pandemic?
One of us! One of us! One of us!
The previous "official" live video they had up a few years ago didn't have the instrumental intro and the crowd interaction ("SING!" 😀 ) . This is one of their best videos.
Of their official live song I think this one is my absolute favorites just because it’s just too damn fun! You can tell both the crowd and girls are just having a blast!
Great reaction!
Your joy is infectious!!
🤘😀🤘
You’re going to have an absolute blast when you get to see them in concert. I’m very hopeful for another world tour this year.
I have been to dozens and dozens of concerts in my lifetime. But Band Maid was, as you said, it’s an entirely different experience!
Omajinai Time; the chanting, the playfulness and legitimate affection between the Maids, and the sincerity of their interactions with the fans is something I had never experienced before.
For your own sake, please check out the short video clip of the “Mini-Miku” that was captured during their last tour. Look at the Maids in the background. All that can’t be faked. These are genuinely good people.
Go Band Maid! ❤
I've watched, without exaggeration, atleast hundreds of Play reactions since they released it and this is genuinely among the best reactions to it till date. Your energy was absolutely spot on! haha
Totally made my day. Thank you :)
Saiki and the band just own the room.
A song that is fun to interact with the audience.😆😆😆👍❤
at 7:00 in this video Saiki went to Akane and tried making faces to mess her up. Akane made faces back. Akane won and you can barely detect Saiki laugh while singing. We understand when you need to go back. Every member puts their flair into what they do and you can hear a song multiple times and find something new each time. If the end sounds familiar go back to your first video. The end of Play is the beginning of Domination.
By the way,.... The Warning. Check em out!
You have the most joyful and wonderful reactions !
LOVE YOUR REACTION! Your reaction and PLAYfulness was so fun to watch. And RIGHT THERE at the end with that note ringing out is when the song Domination starts. Only a second or so between songs.
There is more happening in this song than damn near anything else you could name. (Except some other BM songs because they do this all the time. 😊
I'm going to make another recommendation. On 1/9/23 Band-Maid did a concert at Tokyo Garden Theater to kick off their 10th anniversary tour and on 11/26/23 they did the final concert of this tour at Yokohama Arena. The TGT one has already been released on video and the Yokohama one is in pre-order and will be released on 3/27/24.
I know as a reactor you don't want to see songs before you get a chance to react to them so you wouldn't want to watch the concerts themselves yet, however... Each of these releases has a special limited edition version which includes a documentary. The TGT one is of the US 2022 tour and Yokohama one is about the prep for the concert.
The TGT one still has some copies available at the "Band-Maid Shop" but when they are gone they are gone except for eBay. They are two Blu-ray discs, concert plus doc. and a photo book I don't know your financial situation but if you could afford to get them I think you'd enjoy them and could then watch the concerts after you have seen enough of their YT content that it wouldn't spoil a reaction.
We all know how amazing these ladies are, so I just want to give a shout out to you for being the most fun to watch reactor i've seen in a long time. Never change. Keep those Band-Maid videos coming. PO
Hope you find time to react to my favorite Band-Maid song soon; Sayonakidori acoustic
💯
I concur.👍 And if NittPicc did a reaction wearing a Maid costume i'd concur even more.👍👍
@@GaryHolloway-810 That would have been fun. Which of the five would be the best fit?
@@sugaanessena3143 Hmm.🤔 Nittpicc would need to tell us her height but i'd say Miku's new dress would be perfect for her :)
@@GaryHolloway-810 Yes, that sounds about right :)
Every time I watch this performance I'm blown away by that break at 9:21 too, that superhuman synchronising of Misa's bass and Akane's double-kick is just rather special.
I always play Play when I’m turning someone on to Band-Maid because Play shows how good the Maids play when they’re playing Play. 😜🤘 Thx, MS Picc!
Lol great reaction! When you get to the documentaries (by the wonderful Ohrenje) remember that in order the first one is Saiki's. You will get a better grasp of the band if done in order! Best wishes from England!
I know you have a lot of Band-Maid songs to go through, but don't neglect one that Miku sings lead on, "Sayonakodori". You could do a combo of the very different electric and acoustic versions. Another Miku song, "Rock In Me", gives you an idea of what Band-Maid would have become if Saiki was not added to the band. Just for fun (not for a reaction) watch an "Omajinai Time". The one from Boston is a good one.
Always great when a trained musician shares their insights. Hope you get the chance to see and blog a concert of their's. Many others have done so. A well known fan, Michelle, started as a fan, posted guitar covers of Band Maid songs, started going to concerts, became known to the band members because she happened to be called on by Saiki in an Q&A, and responded in Japanese. Not saying you need to learn Japanese, but how about a song cover? There is another youtuber, Alexej Bagrintsev, who has done a bunch of Band Maid songs on his cello! Truly shows the beauty of Kanami's music.
Yeah Princess Picc Michelle is soft spoken and adorable. She's done great vlogs of BandMaid shows and she can freaking shred! Her covers on the guitar are amazing!
They dropped a new MV yesterday, a performance of 'UNLEASH!!!!!' from their November concert at Yokohama Arena. It is, of course, excellentAF. With sprinkles on.
Just wait until you see them live. It’s insane.
Love you girl. The Maids are absolutely fantastic.
Your reactions to the Maids are fantastic! The only downside is we have to wait a week for another one. After seeing your joy on Play, your going to love Freedom live from the same concert. They have been to the US a lot in the past two years so it’s a shame you have only just discovered them. As for us poor souls in the UK/Europe they haven’t toured here since 2019 and there’s still no sign of them announcing any tours. BooHoo😭
Fingers crossed for 2024!
Now you have to check out Bandmaid's Omajinai time.
Nice Picc to Play on sunday :P
arent they just so much fun ^^
