Kanami = the raw output of Stevie Ray, the technical precision of Eddie, the unstoppable arpeggios of Alex (Lifeson), and almost live creative recklessness of Pete Townshend. I'm glad I'm alive when she's playing at her peak.
Don't forget the spice of Santana.
Miku's backing vocals are so fantastic, adding so much depth to this masterpiece.
Every Band Maid song will be your new favorite!😂
That's the MAIDIACs motto!
Kanami's melancholy guitar solo is the best
Now that you have witness *Puzzle* you should now witness *Puzzle acoustic 2018* for a total different experience. You will be speechless 😶
I was going to say the same thing! 👍
That performance is legendary
The positive effects of a Band-Maid concert lasts up to three months ❤
Even when minchu isn't soloing she's soloing, maidiacs refer to it as minchu on a side quest
We hereby declare The Gringa a fully fledged Maidiac! Welcome aboard!
İ love Kanami because she does not sound like anyone else,she is her own entity,and plays from her heart,and dont forget she composes everything,great reaction.
Band Maid! 🤘🏻🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🍺🥴
ROOOOOGGGGEEEER 👍🍻🍻🍻🍻🍻
@@brunobryant4846 Bruuuuunoooo! 🍺🍻🍻🍺🍻🍺🍺🍻🍻🍺🍻🍻🍺🍻🍻🍺🍻🥴🤘🏻
Thanks so much for your nice reaction!
Maid Gringa is very beautiful!
She is super melodic, you got it absolutely right.
MISA has said that Smashing Pumpkins inspired her to learn the bass, and she looks up to Paz Lenchantin (Pixies, Queens of the Stone Age, etc.)
Than you for support the Maids, nice touch from La Gringa, ¡¡¡¡
Thank you for your wonderful comment. The performance skills of each instrument in BAND-MAID are world class. The chorus is also the best. KANAMI has been learning piano for over 20 years since she was 3 years old, and has composed over 130 songs. MIKU writes most of the lyrics. Surprisingly, there are no bad songs. KANAMI hopes to further improve her guitar technique. They are an amazing group. We would like to hear more videos of your great reactions. (Translation software used)
Mincho is a musical genius. Po!
GRINGA MAID ROCKS!!! ❤
Don't worry Gringa, at any Band-Maid show, you are welcome to dance to your heart's content. And if you think their music is great, I can't wait to seeing your reaction to Miku's Omaginaitime part of the show. 🕊️
Misa stole my heart and became my mistress of thunder the second I heard her growling bass riffs. They are all so talented, but a solid bass sound makes me very happy, I like the costume Maid Gringa is kawaii
Enjoying your content. These ladies definitely know how to enjoy themselves on and off stage. There are numerous fancams at smaller venues where you get to watch them goofing off. MISA, in particular loves to drink. She still drinks beer on stage but used to take sips of bourbon straight out of the bottle in between songs.
They've done this same song as a beautiful ballad - you'd never know it's the same song. This band can play anything.
Thanks Gringa for going full-blown Maid. You look adorable!!!!!! I say that MISA and Akane are the most intuitively brilliant "rhythm section" in rock. The Instrumental Maid CZcams channel also has some great "white room" video with vocals cut out. Now I love Saiki and her amazing voice, but those white room instrumentals really show their musical prowess. I also say that listening to a Band-Maid song moe than once is like mining for gems. There are so many hidden in their songs.
” Less is more” Agree 100%, Kanami is very unselfish musician, playin’ always just what serves the song most. Love it. My alltime favourite musician 🔥❤️
Thank you both for your reaction and Gringa for the costume! There is always fun on stage when the Maids are playing: NO GOD (Official Live video): czcams.com/video/iLF5zd0yl64/video.html
This song has so many fantastic parts.
- The broad, anthemic, wall of sound-intro
- The half-time drums during the chorus
- The rythmic uptempo of the second verse
- The dirty breakdown before the solo
- The solo
- The unison part of the solo, where all instruments mark Kanamis notes
But none of these parts is my favourite. My favourite part is Mikus simple backing vocals. It is such a dense wall of sound-song, but it is like she is singing in a void of complete lonelieness. It catches me everytime as I cannot understand how they found that empty space in a song where so much is going on.
Imho, Band-Maid is the best rock band on the planet. Period.
☝️🤘
only a true music connoisseur can appreciate this song - this is Band-Maid's most progressive song! brilliant tune...
Don't underestimate Corellium, my favourite 😅
Thanks La Gringa for going the extra mile. You guys have found, like me, some great music such as Nightwish, Bandmaid, Lovebites, Sabaton, Nemophila, and on. Thankfully the internet allows us to venture beyond North America and see what's out there.
What's amazing is they do an acoustic version of this song with just Kanami and Saiki that will bring you to tears. It's hard to find the video but I'm sure if possible someone will post a link to it.
Hi Grinda, you should say "Welcome home, Masters and Princeses!".
Great outfit señorita!!. Thank you!
This will remain one of my all-time favorite reactions to Band-Maid.
Thank you so much! So happy you enjoyed it ♥️
Oh Gringa I'm so happy you immediately picked up Kanami's "singing" background vocals in effect.
You guys are really going up the reactor's ledger KEEP it UP!!!
Yes, D'arcy is MISA's favorite bassist🤘
Thank you for your reaction and insightful comments (regarding attending a Band-Maid concert aka Okyu-Ji). I was at their Dallas Concert in 2022 and it was fantastic and a bit surreal after C-19 finally getting to attend. Everyone in line were like friends discussing their favorite facts of Band-Maid and after we were flying high off the concert. Next time they come to America I’m going - I want to experience that again!!!!!
Keep as you feel it La Gringa 🤘🤘🤘
Guys! One of your best reactions, Jimmy and la Gringa riffing comments off each other, and having just as much fun as the Maids. Puzzle has so many pieces to listen for each time.. I know your instrumental focus but this is also a special vocal performance.. for your next listen.
Thank you so much! We really appreciate you 🍻
Woo Hoo!!!! GRINGA-MAID.🙆♂️
Wooo Hooo! I made it to the comments. I see a "Puzzle" reaction I have to watch it. Top 3 song for me 😁
@@xagorvangard Woo hoo for Xagor. Actually you're not that much later than me. Hey have you heard my song "Still i Smile" sung by the awesome vocalist "Kirsty Wake" that no one's ever heard of before except me?😏 Panic helped me with a little problem i had with the audio & Alexej helped me with the mastering. I can send you the mp3 if you want to hear it?
@@GaryHolloway-810 Sure send it!
@@GaryHolloway-810 I heard it ... several times as I was trying to help Gary here ;) ... a great track!
@@PANIC_aka_PinD Yeah i was only thinking of your head, & you did indeed help me with the clipping, & i got a MISA too.🤗
For your next favorite Band Maid song please check out the "Blooming" MV =) It's their second best music video next to "From Now One" !!!!! Thanks Y'all Nice Reaction✌🤘
Well done, La Gringa, for wearing a maid's outfit...but what about El Gringo? After all, Herman Li of Dragonforce wore one when he had an 'audition' with Band-Maid a couple of years ago ( czcams.com/video/sEgKgorAmaE/video.htmlsi=dteNlNEOg0Z-rtr1 ) !! Worth watching as you'll have a smile on your faces throughout. 😉🎸🤘At 7:00 - That "bringing on the mud" with that grungy guitar was Miku on rhythm guitar. Kanami writes lots of little scrapes, slides, power chords, bends and octave slides for Miku to add to her rhythmic chord patterns but it's Miku's vocal harmonies that I love most in this song; such a perfect counterpoint to Saiki's strong, emotional tones.
LOL that was awesome... Herman Li has a great sense of humor. When I listen to Love bites I hear sometimes some of the DragonForce stuff that I've heard in the leads which is pretty sweet ...I mean some of the techniques.
@@TJandTheGringa yeah, those double solos are something Lovebites and Dragonforce share. Glad you liked his audition.. even though they didn't take him into the band!
Great reaction guys. Thanks for supporting our Maids.
We want La Gringa... on tour around the world! BAND MAID is spectacular in everything they always do. In this song, Miku impresses me with the way she creates the wall of sound and the riff she makes. Imo are the best rock band of the century and the TOP 10 in rock history along with other wonderful women like The Warning and Lovebites... Try acoustic 'Puzzle' and go crazy with the sensitivity and beauty they project to us. Overwhelming
🎉Princess la Gringa! ❤ Welcome!
You have musical ears to pick up all the work Kanami does here. She’s doing the job of three guitars simultaneously. I didn’t appreciate all that until I saw her live. I was a few feet from the front of her amp and finally got the full Mincho.
I agree with Jimmy about her phrasing. This one is in my top three Kanami solos. Just brilliantly crafted and executed. On the studio track, she used two guitars and punched in that bubble up. She has to skip a note or two to play the two parts simultaneously. The older lives she plays fewer notes, but here she nails almost all of them. I guarantee she specifically worked on that.
(My other top Mincho solos: Daydreaming, Moratorium and FATE)
Their live shows are an amazing experience. Adrenaline and dopamine dump. You absolutely MUST make it your life’s mission to see them. You will be free to unleash your inner dork 😂
I want to thank you both so much for reacting to BAND-MAID. I truly believe your appreciation for these 5 talented gals will grow - maybe even to a point where you will want to know more about these musicians as individuals. Gracias.
Gringa you look amazing!!!
Love the Maids!! I am literally praying for a Band Maid, The Warning tour....
Puzzle is such a good song that it's in my top ten for Band-Maid songs twice! Once for normal an once again for the acoustic version.
Too bad they can't find the acoustic version easily enough to react to it..... (or can they?)
"Less is more", oh thank God, those are the words I was looking for! Kanami, the genius composer and the most impressive lead guitarist. We don't have this rare talent in the J-rock scene. Maybe not even in the whole world today!
🍻
Viva La Gringa!
Now that you have seen the official Live version of this song you REALLY need to check out the Acoustic Live version of it. You will not believe it's the same song. SOOO emotional! czcams.com/video/ayJtzPkgZTc/video.htmlsi=cA2ZE09uHxPd4oNZ
No words to express how happy this band makes me. And if they ever need a 6th member, La Gringa you are all set. Even the gorgeous long black hair!
Kanami is a guitar QUEEN!!!
If you think that you have seen great bass players, don't forget Fami of Lovebites.
Watch her cover of Alien alien when she was 17..
It will be the best thing you will see today..
Talk about them having each other's backs.. they just released a song about that. It's called Bestie, co-written with Mike Einzinger from Incubus!
When I saw Gringa in maid outfit, I immediately click like. Can’t be wrong.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Konami played the piano before she learned guitar. So her guitar playing is not only technically sound but very melodic, her writing reflects that also. I say Konami technically has all the tricks of great guitar players, but with the sensibility of melody harmony and timing of a piano player. What she does in the background melodically you don't hear in other bands, and it;s amazing.
Agreed!!
We love la Gringa Maido 😍🤘✌
Great job on the outfit, nailed it. If you get to go to a show, wear the costume you won't be the only one. Get up in the front row. MIKU will probably talk to you they get excited to see female fans.
Thanx, Jimmy and Gringa!!! Don't worry, you're official already!😁 Always having fun watching your reaction!! Yeah, keep BAND-MAIDIN'!!!! Cheers from Tokyo!🤘😆
🍻🍻
Misa on the song Hate? is out of this world beast on bass
Yes I remember that duel...That was maaad epic!! I like this one and hate evenly i think.... I like how this one just kicks off kicking ass from the get-go. I was referring to domination which is the one we did previously lol
Great costume, Gringa 😂. Female basist, you say? A Japanese band called Gacharic Spin has a song, "Mindset". The basist hammers you with a thousand notes and then hammers you some more.
That just went on the list and toward the top!! 🤘🤘
you guys are fun and my favorite couple reactors. Maid Gringa looks awesome and Miku(Band founder) would be so proud and happy to see you. great job I'm looking forward to more Band-Maid
We are humbled! Thank you so much for the kind words ♥️
You need to watch/listen to Miku song. You don't talk about her in your reactions. And she is an amazing singer and player (now). You can try "Sayonakidori" and acoustic version of it is amazing.
Thank you for your reaction.
「大きい問題があります」（笑）😃グリンガさん超かわいい🤩
Now, if you want to understand the amazing range and versatility of Saiki's voice, you should react to "Puzzle", the officlal live acoustic version from the Tokyo Zepp Arena concert in 2019. It's the same melody and the same lyrics, but with an entirely different vocal feel. It's a must to react to that version of "Puzzle" to understand how great Band-Maid is. It's a duet with only Saiki singing and Kanami accompanying her on acoustic guitar. Please read the lyrics from this rock version first to understand the ones in the acoustic version. One warning: get some Kleenex.
Listen carefully to the drummer throughout their songs. She is awesome.
For me, this band is the piece of the puzzle that I am that I didn't know I was missing. 🔥🤘🏻
❤😂
Live shows are incredible, by far the best live show I have ever been too. Welcome to the Maidiacs!!! Love the outfit! Loved the reaction, hope to see many more. Band-Maid is just on a different level, thank you!
Nothing better than BAND-MAID putting a smile on your dial 😁 Loved the outfit La Gringa, you're a natural and may we say what a fcken band Po, cheers from down under 👍🍻
It's really hot here Bruno. Not as hot as GRINGA-MAID but still hot.😏
@@GaryHolloway-810 The upside is cold beer tastes better 👍🍻
@@brunobryant4846 That's very true. I'll have to check my fridge cos i'm sure i've got a couple of cold lagers in there. It's 11:10pm UK time & it's still 22°c/71°f, that's really hot for here.🥵
@@GaryHolloway-810 It's 8:30 am here GH and now I'm already thinking about frosty lagers 😁 love your work GH 🍻🍻
@@brunobryant4846 Thx Bruno. I'm going to bed soon right after i've finished the cold bottle of Kronenbourg 1664 i opened but you've still got the whole day ahead of you to enjoy more than a few frosty beers.😁🍻
'Moving bass lines'. Misa works like a Trojan to hit every note cleanly (and I read in an interview only a couple years back that she never thinks she does! But then there's a Japanese proverb - "if perfection was obtainable it wouldn't be worth having"), the result is that seamless wall of bass underpinning every song (and she and Akane seem like they're telepathic). I'm not putting her above any of the band, but I'm a lifelong bass-head and I can't not zero in on her superb playing.
Miku could not play guitar when she founded Band-Maid and Kanami the lead guitar taught her how.
Damn that's awesome!
Great uniform @gringa! I'm happy to see the love. It's funny you brought up Pixies and Smashing Pumpkins becasue Misa has said she was inspired by them! I call Misa the Lead Bassist lol. She doesn't just keep doing the same thing over and over. She's playing a bass as if she's the lead guitar. But yet never in competition with it. They enhance each other! They are brilliant musicians. This is a song I can listen to over and over again and always find something new to listen too. That's like most of hteir songs though. They just have repeat playability. I don't know how many times I've watched reactions to some songs but never get tired of them. The album this is from, Just Bring It, is my favorite manily becasue it's has 4 of my top 10 songs. Puzzle, Moratorium, YOLO, Secret My Lips, and Time.
not a shredfest....but the lyrics really hit home.....about a woman having an affair but knowing she can never have him...
There is an acoustic version of this song with Saiki and Kanami on an acoustic guitar and backing vocals. It just shows how versatile they are.
You have good taste. Mentioning Kim Deal is proof ❤. Misa is top tier and a favorite of mine. Kanami is more than a guitarist, she's a brilliant composer. Puzzle is an excellent song. When you have time, check out the live acoustic version
Hi...band maid MORATORIUM ( live ) thanks
When people ask me what my favorite song is, I have to list 3 of them. Puzzle, Daydreaming and Blooming. You've done one of them, looking forward to when you watch the other two.
I found Band Maid thanks to Blackpink, in 2017. The earlier version of "Puzzle" locked me into being a Maidiac.
What fascinated me, and still does is Kanami plays lead all the way through. Also she doesn't shred, her solos are always in context of the song. Too many guitar solos have nothing to do with the song itself, it's just ego noise.
MISA is the best bassist I've ever heard! Plus she's a goddess! 😳 Top tier Band Maid here! dbl ♥
I suggest these Band Maid songs: Thrill, Dice, Manners, Bubble, No God (live) & Turn Me On (live)
The last song is sadly no longer on their official channel but is back on Utube: paste this after the equal sign in address - 4q5rHaYrKr8\
Also song has one of Kanami's longest solos
Others have probably already mentioned that they did an acoustic version of this in 2018 at Zepp Tokyo. Just Kanami and Saiki alone on a darkened stage, Saiki singing, Kanami playing acoustic and singing backing vocals in an angelic voice. I hope you can find it somewhere to listen to. The concert was released, DVD & Blu-ray, on a special edition of the "Start Over" single.
That’s right my favorite Band-Maid song is the last one I listen to.
Great Reaction…love the maid cafe outfit! Miku would be proud! PO!
Band-Maid’s motto is “We will do our best” and they always do!
🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!
👍🤗🤘😁🥰🕊️👀
🍺🥴
Lol, love the outfit.
You use the word dorky, I prefer quirky! 😊 We’ll call you Gringa-chan!
Two things I really love about this performance, aside from the incredible music and musicianship, is Kanami’s solo (one of my favourites of hers) and the lighting. When they use the small spots to create an almost cage like effect is so cool. 😎
Would you believe I saw a comment dissing Band-Maid saying Kanami’s playing wasn’t melodic. That comment is in the running for the CZcams Stupid Comment of the Year competition! 😅
Did you catch that subtle chord change in the last repeat of the chorus?
I definitely did hear that!.. have listened to the song a few more times since the reaction and I can really see how she takes her time with her melodies and phrasing. Whoever said that she is not melodic... I would ask them what time their show starts and where we can hear their masterpiece lol
La Gringa es la Maid!!! 😂
Love the commitment to these 5 incredible, strong, powerful, talented and passionate people (who just happen to be women)!
This was from their January 2023 show at the new 9k seat Tokyo Garden Theatre. Before their 10th Anniversary show at the 14k seat Yokohama Arena, this was their biggest one-man show up to that point. And, as always, the Maids brought the goods!!!
Next? Something mellower with more intricate melodies and interwoven guitar work? And with great vocals from Saiki?
- “Wonderland” - official Live video.
Or an acoustic, heartfelt track with Miku on lead vocals?
- “Sayonakidori” (Nightingale) - official live video
Take care and rock on 🤘🏼🔥🎸🥁🎼🎤🙌🏼😎✌🏼
You 2 are ADORABLE!!
Thanks again for another great reaction!
🤘🤩🤘
♥️❤️❣️
It will blow your mind when you listen to the acoustic version of this - just Saiki and Kanami - or any of the Christmas online concert from a couple of years ago
Have you seen MISA flip the pick between picking and slapping? Oh, and MISA has tapped also. Kanami and Saiki did this song as an acoustic and it's beautiful. JulesTheHuman said a couple of times "they play the silence well" This song shows that.
Great dancing! Mr. Jimmy, you are a lucky lucky man. Definitely check out the acoustic version. Band Maid is uplifting.
MISA's hero is Paz Lenchantin of The Pixies.
You really need to hear the acoustic version of Puzzle and Anemone. You could almost call this the angry version and the acoustic version the sad version. It's about a girl who falls in love with a married man knowing that he will never leave his wife. The acoustic is just Saiki and Kaname who also has a lovely voice.
She's so Kawaii . Interesting that you mentioned Darcy of Smashing Pumkins. They are one of Misa's biggest influences.
Love the dress, Gringa! Great reaction
😃
Welcome to the "not a cult." Love your reactions.
Nice reaction guys and a special hello to the Gringa Maid who needs a rose to go with the bonnet cheers
Paz Lenchantin has been a huge influence on Misa ! I'm sure that comes as a surprise to no one ! 🤯🔥
MISA hasn't worn the traditional Maid Uniform for a long time. She ditched it almost from the very beginning. And you named two of her biggest influences too. And Fami from LOVEBITES shreds. MISA tastefully rips your face off. The same for Kanami. Not that they can't shred. But BAND-MAID are not a Noodle Meister Showoff Band like LOVEBITES. I love that about them.
Gotta do Manners and Blackhole live for some prime Misa.
Always fun to watch your reactions! And Gringa; awesome maid dress! 😎🤘
Well you need to watch Official LIVE "Don't You Tell Me" for some great bass playing.....actually a duel with Kanami.
I saw them in Charlotte and was locked on Kanami since she was the closest and that girls never stops for a second, I'm surprised her hands don't fall off after a show. Also, I swear Saiki has three lungs, or breathes through her eyelids....“like the lava lizards of the Galapagos Islands.”
Gringa can be a "Maidiac" when she smacks your hand for interrupting a Kanami solo....
