    Next suggestion:
    - Road Of Resistance live in Japan official MV (2015), it's the most epic live version and with the best sound and technical execution by the best musicians you can find in Japan.

    _Sore!_ 🦊🤘🔥
    Mah man Jake not only got the same name but also share the passion for dance emulator games, gosh i used to love that game especially Pump It Up, but I'm too old now for jumping like that lol
    Nice to see you're back with this suggestion, they were quite young in this one but wait to see Doki Doki Morning or Iine!!
    This is another BM fans favorite song and is already a classic one they don't wanna leave behind in any of their setlist when performing live such recently at Rock Im Park and Rock Am Ring in Germany last weekend and also at FOX_ FEST Festival last weekend of May when they even opened up the festival with a exclusive remix version and dance called "Akago Kinzoku" dancing with a hand-fan.
    This was released in 2013 when having around 13/14 (Yui and MoaMetal, MomoMetal not here yet) and 15 yo (SuMetal, the lead singer), so is one of their early hits and is full of japanese elements, like the "shamizen", a japanese traditional instrument, and is a party festival song (matsuri).
    "Sore" "seiya" and "soya" are typical shouts among Japanese festival and it works like a "c'mon!" or "let's go" for them.
    During the breakdown you can hear another typical japanese folk song called "Sakura Sakura" and they're doing a traditional Japanese dance.
    The pig squeals are just a backing track and is credited to no one as well many more growlings and harsh vocals you can hear during early era.
    In summary, song is about female empowerment and if you follow the lyrics you'll see about it, "Megitsune" means female fox (vixen) and they talk about women acting with a smile in their face while crying inside, just to fit in society or what is expected from them, when they're kind to you they're not trying to make falling in love with them, they're just being their own way, and men tend to confuse and think they're cheating or deceiving like the mythological fox.
    "Megitsune" used to be a peyorative term in Japanese culture, pretty much just like around the world, but BM is using this as a way to empower women despite the meaning itself.
    When SuMetal is pulling out the "tanto" mic she's saying "maidens shouldn't be underestimated", that refers to a japanese mob film about some boss mafia daughter before attacking someone. During live performance she throws a front kick just like you saw and she looks really cool doing it.
    Megitsune is a quintessential BM song and among top ranking songs by fans, SuMetal said she didn't mastered yet, that's why she used to sound check with this song before live concerts.
    The origin of the "fox sign" is kinda long to explain but here's a short summary, please don't freak out, remember this is fiction and just for fun:
    The Fox God (Kitsune Sama) is the Metal God who sent these girls (and Kami Band after to help them with the metal sound) to unify the world and set them free from Jpop slavery. The kitsune sign came out by accident around the time they created the group by the girls when trying to imitate the typical metal horn sign they noticed it was similar when doing fox shadow shape, they implemented this as part of the lore, imagery, theme and live concerts, the lore is huge so take your time and keep digging and riding the Foxhole 🦊🤘
    This is a song with the arrangements by YuppeMetal, he took inspiration from "Memphis May Fire - The Sinner" for the drum section, another song that i recommend you for your own time if you want.
    Next suggestion:
    - Road Of Resistance live in Japan official MV (2015).
    See you next time. 🦊🤘🔥

    I know its in our DNA at this point, but these great Females artists dont need to be compared by us.

    Hi Jake just a quick correction, you did a typo on the thumbnail writing "Megatsune", you got right in the title which is Megitsune.🦊👍

    Good one,,or 3👊🏽⚡️This is quintessential Babymetal. I’m always amazed at how Su-Metal can sing so precisely while dancing flawlessly🦊🤘🏾

    6:23 I love this part of the song, especially this extended intro version, it is both haunting and beautiful. 14:25 I like the way Mayu did this.
    Another compare and contrast you could do is the song Crime and Punishment by Shiina Ringo and Ado. The song was originally done by Shiina Ringo, who is approaching legend status in Japan, and Ado, the young prodigy, who is the most popular singer in Japan right now. It is a vocal shootout with very different ideas of performances, one singer pours herself into the role and the other chooses to remain hidden.

    BabyMetal didn't do any of the screaming, it's an effect. Mayu did her own screams.

    As good as Nemophila are - put the versions back to back and, well, there's no contest.

      @tylerjensen7424 Před 20 dny +1

      It wasn’t bad but Su’s vocals are way better on this. The harsh vocals on Nemophilas version were cool but the rest of the lyrics kinda sounded like Tommy Pickles

    • @paul_laws
      @paul_laws Před 20 dny +2

      @@tylerjensen7424 I do like Nemophila's version. Listen to it quite regularly. Hoping BABYMETAL re-record it with Momo doing the pig squeals 🦊🤟

      Maybe back to back with ..SAKURA SAKURA (CHERRY BLOSSOM) mid way ?

  • @johndinkeloo3822
    @johndinkeloo3822 Před 20 dny +3

    Nemophila did a fine job with their cover but they can't really hold a candle to Babymetal. Su-metal's vocals are pretty much unequaled.

    @tonypate9174 Před 19 dny

    Guess Jake missed the link to ..SAKURA SAKURA (CHERRY BLOSSOM) ... Megitsune gives out.
