    Thanks for doing this one! Yes, a lot of Japanese artists mix Japanese and English lyrics. Miku, the rhythm guitarist and lyricist is especially good at combining the two within single phrases and also truncating the pronunciations of words to fit the melody while communicating exactly what she intends to communicate in the lyrics.
    If they ever do another double like this that I’d like for you to react to I’ll make sure to do separate donations.

    Great to see you back with a Band Maid reaction. The requester would have wanted you to listen to Black Hole for the 220 bpm. The video was only released as a 2 fo,r so that was the only way they could get it to you. When Akane was presented with the concept and speed for the song by Kanami she came up with 7 different drum patterns for the song ranging from Easy to Hell, the band, of course, chose Hell !!

  • @MaartenT
    @MaartenT Před rokem +19

    There are basically 3 different ways the Japanese tackle their vocals in their rock or metal songs, but the mix of English and Japanese is done by a lot of bands. The others either have pure Japanese or pure English vocals. I believe Band-Maid's lyricist and backing vocals/rhythm guitarist Miku uses English or Japanese depending on what fits best with the music for that specific part of the song because both languages have different sounds and cadences.

    • @MaartenT
      @MaartenT Před měsícem

      @@donaldgraham6414
      It is, they have 3 tracks that are in full English as far as I'm aware and Bestie is one of them. But it was also a collab with Mike Eizinger of Incubus, which is probably why Miku made all the lyrics in English. The other 2 tracks that are in full English are "Don't let me down", which was written by a Japanese male producer and feature lyrics (by that producer) that make some reactors blush (it's not even known if they knew what they were singing at the time) and "The Dragon Cries" which was a collab with Tony Visconti, which again is probably why they are all in English since Tony Visconti produced the vocals on that track.
      And yes, I have learned and listened to enough Japanese to know how many English loanwords they use, sometimes with completely different meanings ("mansion" or "sense" come to mind), but I still prefer a mix (no issues with that) or full Japanese lyrics for most Japanese music myself. But to be fair, it also depends on the vocalist and the pronunciation, I am looking at you Kimi from Bridear. I have a tough time ignoring her pronunciation and I am not even a native English speaker. Let's put it this way, if you can't even tell on first listen they are singing in English they probably shouldn't do full lyrics in English (but I guess that's a subjective take, not an objective one). It's not going to stop me from listening to the band, but bands that do this are probably not going to be my favourites either because the vocal lines will distract me from listening to the actual music. I am looking forward to Bridears upcoming album though, so there is that.

      - I see. I’m impressed with your explosive drumming in BLACK HOLE with a speedy, mainly two-beat, overwhelming development. It must be a very challenging song for a drummer.
      Akane: It has 220 BPM, which is the fastest Band-Maid song ever. It was the most challenging song, and the most memorable one at the recording. When I proposed foot phrases to my bandmates, I prepared about 7 patterns according to difficulty levels, like easy / normal / possible if I try / demonic / hell, and all of them chose the “hell” pattern (laughs).
      - (laughs) At any rate, I feel your strictness with yourself in that you prepared the “hell” level yourself.
      Akane: I’ve been trained by my bandmates who are strict with themselves, so I proposed it myself (laughs). I feel my growth, and my spirit of taking on challenges has become even stronger. All of them have been making their own parts harder and harder, so I wanted to give myself a challenge… so I have a sense of accomplishment, like “I didn’t run away”. I think it’s great we inspire each other like that.

    Black Hole isn't one of my favourite songs, but it is also one of my absolutely favourite songs! It is confusing, chaotic and unfocused. They've thrown every single idea they came up with for the song in together and don't seem to have edited at all writing it. In this song it is absolutely perfect to do that. To me this is the most conceptual song of theirs and honestly more than a lot of more conceptual bands manages to do. The song really is wall of unstoppable energy as chaotic and overwhelming as I imagine a black hole to be. I guess I imagine a getting sucked in to a black hole would be as much of getting sucked in to a comic book tornado.

    That drum kick that opened the song was just great and Misa just blended right in. Akane's fills are a work of art and a wonder to hear. I get a kick out listening for her fills and just ignore the rest, just to see if I can predict what she is going to do next. No luck so far, lol. I know her nickname is Gorilla, but to me she is the High Priestess of the Temple of the Perfect Fill !!!! She is just so creative that it's mind-boggling. I've done some side-by-side video comparisons of Akane and both Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich and she seems to have the same type of creativity those legends had. Glad to see you doing another Band Maid.
    Another thing I like about "Manners" is that at their lives shows, when they play this song, the whole crowd joins Miku in her little "ha-ha-ha-ha" interludes as well as her "yeah yeah yeah yeah" scream. Keep up the good work Andrew !!!

    As a special bonus on some of their albums and EPs they've released multi-angle videos so you can focus on specific members during an entire song. I think band-maid need to do more of those.

    You need to track down one of their Tutorial Videos. It's just them playing in a white studio and there's 5 videos per song. One of each instrument and then one of it edited all together. The reason I say this is you could just do the Drum Video. It may take some looking but they're out there. A couple other songs in the same vein are 'Different' and 'Rinne'.

      I don't think those are meant as tutorial videos, they are just extras that come with the special editions of some of their albums.
      The Conqueror limited edition DVD/Blu-ray editions (white room) came with:
      - Domination (Instrumental Video)
      - Dice (Instrumental Video)
      - Onset (Instrumental Video)
      Unseen World limited edition DVD/Blu-ray editions (white room):
      - After Life (Instrumental Video)
      - No God (Instrumental Video)
      - Giovanni (Instrumental Video)
      - Without Holding Back (Instrumental Video)
      Unleash limited edition DVD/Blu-ray editions (white room):
      - Unleash!!!!! (Instrumental Music Video)
      - Sense (Instrumental Music Video)
      - From Now On (MV - black room) (this one doesn't have different versions as far as I remember)
      All of these have different versions with the exception of the From Now On MV, one with all 4 of them and one for each member. They certainly aren't officially on yt, they might be around, I have no clue.

    Miku's lyrics are a mixture of English and Japanese, which is not so unusual in Japanese music.
    However, sometimes her approach is to make one phrase sound similar but have different meanings in Japanese and English.
    This gives her lyrics a little more depth.

    In the acoustic version of Sayonakidori, Akane does backing vocals for Miku as well as playing the drums with special soft sticks. They are joined only by Misa. No Kanami or Saiki. It is a beautiful work of art.
    Sayinakidori means “nightingale,” but also “the bird that cries at night.”

    I have been following Bandmaid for some years now, and believe they are one of the best in the world, along with Lovebites. I honestly think that they are the only band who could do Blackhole, it is just out of this world, incredible. I believe Kanami writes most of their songs now, and maybe this why this song is just wonderful, she knows the girls so well and they are all given their parts.

    The switch between Japanese and English isn't unique to Band-Maid, but Miku (who writes most of the lyrics) often uses it to facilitate the rhythm. In many situations, English phases have fewer sylables than their Japanese equivalents, so she sprinkles in English to preserve the flow. Other times, a particularly dense Japanese verse fits the song well, with Saiki bringing a rap-like delivery.

    Hi, Andrew, and greetings from across the Ditch in Aus!
    Thanks for getting back to Band-Maid, always nice to see them get some appreciation. They're touring the US again shortly, and I can only hope that they'll do an Australasian tour eventually.
    I'm not sure if they've been suggested previously, but another all female Japanese band you might appreciate is Lovebites. They have a powerhouse drummer, Haruna, known as the Pocket Nuke ( she's 4'9"). Their genre is metal, ranging from thrash, to speed metal, to.... well they have practically established their own genre. What other metal concert will give you a Chopin piano etude? Lovebites do! One of their two amazing lead guitarists is a classically trained pianist. But back to Haruna, she can keep up a blistering pace on the double kick for a 2 hour concert and not raise a sweat. She is also a friend of Akane from Band-Maid.
    There's plenty of tracks to choose from, this is one of their heavier numbers which showcases the drummer. Cheers.

      You are missing
      - Senri Kawaguchi: Ranked top 500 drummer on drummerworld when she was 13 and only beaten later by Yoyoka as the youngest drummer on that list. Senri has solo stuff, Kiyo*Sen, The Jazz Avengers and a LOT of freelance recordings for other artists. She just had the 10th anniversary of her first solo album and she is only 26.
      - Kanade Sato: Just turned 20, but she is an amazing drummer. Kanade Sato is in the Fusion groups "Muses" (with bassist Juna Serita among others who played with Tamu in the past as well) and "Ear Candy Jazz Factory", plays with Rie a.k.a. Suzaku, has solo stuff on youtube and recently played live with Koiai (new name for the old Li-Sa-X band).
      I would place both of them higher than the majority (if not all) of that list as far as favourite drummers go (I don't like to use the word "best"). Don't get me wrong, all of them are very good drummers and I like all of them a lot, but Senri has been my favourite Japanese drummer (and one of my favourite drummers period) and Kanade Sato is fantastic as well. It's just because they are more in the Jazz and Fusion realm that you probably never heard of them.
      Go check them out, they are well worth it (Andrew has reactions to both of them on his channel).

    It's quite normal for Japanese songs to have English mixed in with the lyrics, but I was surprised that people overseas used to take it negatively, but recently it's been taken positively.
    When composing music, using other languages ​​to express sounds and meanings as much as possible is also done in classical works such as "haiku, senryu" other than music, and it is very natural for Japanese.

    The only thing that leaves me unsatisfied about B-M lives is that I don't have five sets of eyes on five different feeds focused on each of them. Unfortunately, because each member is pretty much always contributing something awesome and we can't watch all of them at once there's always gonna be the feeling of missing something. And worse yet, Akane suffers from this as much as any drummer, which is to say a lot.

    BAND-MAID sound is is 99% BASS! To be completely honest, I don't think this is a live stream. Sounds and looks like songs are comped from multiple live performance and touched up here and there. I've seen plenty of live show footage of them and the rock live but this sounds to clean for a live stream.

    • @philproffitt8363

      Bass is only stronger in the live setting...studio recordings favour more detail in the guitar layering and everything else. Dice or Blooming MVs are good examples. I enjoy the two different presentation styles. I didn't see this original live stream but others I've watched and recorded were really very good.

    • @thomasrotweiler
      @thomasrotweiler Před rokem +1

      You can compare with the live stream which someone has posted on a certain Chinese site. From what I can tell, the sound was recorded onto the mixing desk and some balancing done post-production. Possibly some vocal tweaks. The official live video with manners uses a different selection of camera angles in places, partly to edit out Akane goofing off at the camera. Other bits are as per the original live stream. I think some bits of the drumming have been tidied up as well. I didn't spot any obvious signs of multiple performances though - no continuity errors, invisible cameras etc.
