![ROADIE REACTIONS | "BabyMetal - Rondo of Nightmare (Live)" | [FIRST TIME SONG REACTION]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/JO9mS4nAowM/mqdefault.jpg)
Great reaction. The Kami Band here were Leda Cygnus (blue guitar), Takayoshi Ohmura (gold guitar), BOH (6 string bass) and Hideki Aoyama (drums).
So "... let's see what this girl's got ... " Su-metal has everything pretty much - and she was not long past her 16th birthday here. The Budokan is a venue people aspire to play - think along the lines of Madison Square Garden. BABYMETAL sold it out two nights running and are the youngest average age female band to headline there (Yui and Moa were still only 14).
Keep the BABYMETAL coming please, I really enjoyed your reaction here. There are so many to recommend and every one of them is different. How about 'Headbanger' live at Legend 1997, that's a fun one.
The team is incredible and they all work really well together.
@@SossIsBoss Budokan is more than that. It's a huge sumo wrestling venue. But it's a huge honor to play at Budokan. You can't just put it on your schedule and arrange the dates. You have to be INVITED to play Budokan. For comparison, the first band to ever play at Budokan was The Beatles. And if you remember Cheap Trick's single "I Want You to Want Me", that was recorded live at Budokan. so for Babymetal to be included in that same company tells you a lot about Babymetal.
so am I reading correctly that Su was only 16 when she did that performance!!?!! Long reign Queen Su :-)
@@NibsUK2121 Yes, she had her 16th birthday three months before this performance which took place in March 2014.
@@steffenjachnow8176 thanks for confirming. They show such confidence, performing in front of such huge crowds - I get nervous giving talks in front of work colleagues, let alone crowds of thousands (20,000 was it for the most popular "Road Of Resistance" vid. such props owed just for that.)
Nice. Not a tattoo - BABYMETAL'S band, the KAMI Band, often wore traditional Japanese burial robes & corpse/ghost make-up.
RONDO OF NIGHTMARE lyrics:
"The waning moon has lit up
the insanity rampant in the shade.
The laughter resounds around.
It bares its fangs and its eyes gleam.
I can't escape from it.
It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind.
A nightmare rondo is being repeated.
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight.
I can do nothing but run
through the darkness.
In the woods, in the fountain,
I hide myself holding my breath,
but it's still coming closer to me.
A stagnant voice. An endless night.
Ah...
If I can no longer get out of here,
won't you show me your figure?
It flickers slowly
appearing and disappearing in my mind.
A nightmare rondo is being repeated.
The awakening light
is gone far away out of my sight.
I can do nothing but fall
into the darkness."
This song debuted in a live show the first date of "Budokan 2 Days" at Nippon Budokan on March 1 of 2014.
*Not everyone gets to play Budokan, you must be invited. I think BABYMETAL were the youngest artists ever to play there. Su-metal was 16, Moametal & Yuimetal were 14.
Arigatou! 🦊🤘 #notacult
Whatever the case was, it was REALLY dope to me. I love the corpse makeup. Thank you for the lyrics!
Don’t worry, Babymetal fans are used to the breaks and commentary.
Nice again & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。You know what, the pleasure for BABYMETAL fans with watching reaction video to "Rondo" is counting how many times the reactor drop his or her jaw. You did 20 times or more 😄 including 4 times when BOH does finger tapping on his bass . Kamis' (=Gods') super plays are excellent enough as a main event, but once the 16-year-old Queen emerges from the underground, she colors everything differently and turns Kamis' plays into a ritual to summon her.
Absolutely!
GREAT REACTION! The musicians are called the "Kami Band". "Kami" means god in Japanese, and these guys are like gods of music. They are all men and are Japan's best musicians. They are wearing burial gowns and corpse face paint because in the BABYMETAL lore/storyline, the "Fox God" raises the musicians from the dead and calls upon them to play the music for the girls for each concert. The 3 girls have been chosen by the "Fox God" to unite the world through metal.
In this video, Su is just 16 years old performing at the famous Budokan arena in Japan. I believe BABYMETAL are still the youngest band/artists to perform there. The Beatles have performed there too. She has such a commanding presence that you forget that she is a tiny girl on that stage, at just 5ft -1inch (155cm) tall. She may look like a tiny mortal, but she is a metal goddess.
I read a recent comment that described the lyrics best: She is singing about "a nightmare running away from a monster she can not see...she is exhausted and hides in a well. And she gives up and just asked the monster to show itself to know what she was running from before she dies.". This is one of their darker songs. Of the 50+ BABYMETAL songs, Su's solo songs have more depth lyrically.
BABYMETAL concerts like these, especially the ones in Japan, are about 1.5+ hours long, and because the girls go hard on every song, the other two girls, Moa and Yui, use Su's solo as a chance to take a break. 🦊🤘
They are INSANE musicians. I loved when the bass player extended his arms like "What's up? Got something to say?" haha
babymetal have not yet had a female god of guitar, bass, or drums, tho i assume they'd be open to it, but at one point early on they did have a female god of violin, so in the context of past performances, it's technically incorrect to say that the kami band is "all" men.
@@sirmoonslosthismind That's true, the Kami Band can also include Megami. I'm always hoping they'll bring in a full-time pianist/keyboardist, rather than usually leaving that to backing tacks. Sure, Leda is also a pianist, but he's busy playing guitar. Certainly wouldn't hurt if there was a Megami of the Keys.
@@0okamino
"kami" is not a gendered term. many japanese speaking people have the same bad habit that many speakers of other languages have, of assuming male by default, but there is actually a separate form for a specifically male god, just as there is "megami" for women. neither term is necessary here.
“Kami” written with different kanji means “hair,” so the Kami Band is also a play on words referencing the hair bands of the 80s 😎
Great reaction!
Keep that Babymetal reactions coming.
And yes, the dark vibe in music goes well with lyrics. It talks about a neverending nightmare where she only sees a glimps of tooth and eyes of some creature that is pursuing her. And finally she asks to see it´s face before facing it´s destiny. It´s one ot their darkest songs, though.
And regarding the long intro with instrumental solos, they have quite few songs (live) with such intros: Catch me if you can, Awadama Fever, Kagerou. Another when you can hear BOH bass tapping is "Amore".
MOA LISA
"The waning moon shines bright, but there's a gloom of rampant madness. I hear laughing all around. It bares its fangs and its eyes gleam. There's no escape. It flickers, appearing and disappearing in my mind. A nightmarish rondo keeps repeating. The light of dawn is so far away, I have no choice but to run through the darkness."
Hi Soss! Good reaction! "Rondo of Nightmare" is a song about a girl trying to escape from... something. We don't really know what it is, and part of the song is that we never really find out. When Su-metal puts her head down and sings softly she's pleading with, whatever it is, to at least show itself before she perishes. As with all nightmares it never gets resolved. Su has two solos on each of the first two albums, where Moa and Yui have two duets each on the first two albums.
The Kami Band are absolute metal masters and this "Mischiefs of the Metal Gods" intro really shows it! There's a pool of Kamis and they rotate in and out depending on availability as they all have their own bands and projects, but here in order of solos we have: Leda Cygnus (blue guitar), Takayoshi Ohmura (gold guitar), BOH (bass), and Hideki Aoyama (drums).
This was very well said, I came to the comments to do just that, seems you got it covered, rock on
Ooo please watch Ijime Dame Zettai from Sonisphere 2014! My favourite performance by them
I'm happy you're enjoying your journey into Babymetal, as they have a lot to offer, and no two songs will be quite the same. This is probably their darkest song, lyric wise, and once you read them you'll know why. They also have several really fun, happy songs like Awadama Fever, Catch me if you can (which also has a killer Kami Band intro), and Iine (pronounced ee-nay). Some songs with serious topics like Ijime, Dame Zettai which is an anti bullying song (and my favorite) and Megitsune, which is about how women should be respected for their individuality and strength and not be looked down on if they choose not to live up to what some believe the role of a woman should be.
In any case, Babymetal are unique in the metal world, but are greatly respected by their peers, like Metallica (who they've opened for), Rob Halford (who they've performed with), Dragonforce, Red Hot Chili Peppers, etc...
⚡ / 🔥 😱 🔥
Besides the title, the only English word in this song is "rondo".
The rest is all Japanese.
So, not bad for a 16 year old kid. : )
Su has a penetrating clarity to her voice that makes it perfect for metal.
She can be clearly heard through the heavy drums, bass and guitars.
Su performed three solos that night.
She did 'No Rain, No Rainbow', followed by 'Akatsuki' earlier in the set.
That Black Night Budokan concert from March, 2014 is still one of my favorite concerts of all time.
And of course that "summoning ritual" 'Mischief of the Metal Gods' is pure fire.
Not sure which requires more courage.
Dancing on a small raised platform in the dark with no net or railing, or following that Kami Band showcase with a solo song.
You're not wrong. It's impressive.
Su is a trouper, but the safety officer must have been on vacation on the day that platform was designed without a railing.
Great reaction 👻🤘🦊🦊🦊🤘👻
I’m happy to see you seeing the true talent that is BabyMetal, you have a lot of BM songs to go and they are FN awesome Great reaction have been a Babymetal fan for 9 years , I love the band so much , there not been a day that has gone by in 9 years that I haven’t listened to 4 or 5 songs of Babymetal, yui is my Babymetal Angel, I went to BabyMetal concert Brisbane Australia 2018 great concert was absolutely fantastic
🦊🦊🦊
Nice job. Glad you're enjoying BM so far. You're in for a treat.
Another epic reaction to one of BabyMetals best songs to react to, the intro is amazing, and just builds into the song. One thing that I love about BabyMetal is the stage /set design. I wonder how much they spend on the setup because they are mindblowing. When you watch their live performances you see how amazing the sets are.
If you want a song to blow your mind, check out one of their earlier tracks, Megitsune...this has one of the greatest breakdowns of any BabyMetal songs, and will literally blow your mind. The official video is great on this track, but the live versions are equally as good. Failing that, have a look at Akatsuki (Black night, or a red night).
Also, remember #notacult ;)
The theatrics of their performance are seriously some of the coolest things ever.
Great reaction. Babymetal is great and that is so true. Su-metal has a great voice and one of the best Death Metal stares with some of the best crowd control I have ever seen. Such presence.
Its always a treat to see metalheads get blown away from babymetals live shows.
Simply put. This song is about recurring nightmares and death. It's their darkest song to date. Which is why a lot of people love it. Its one of their best songs that proved their metal legitimacy. And who knew a voice of a young Japanese girl could go so well with heavy music? Su Metal is a Fox Goddess and she was born to be in the metal genre.
A hauntingly beautiful heavy metal waltz.
I think you'll really enjoy Akatsuki there's a really good guitar duet that I think you'll love. Another interesting point of this song is that it is a Rondo, if you are not aware a rondo is a musical style where the song has various episodes, usually contrasting episodes in speed and style and the episodes repeat. The theme and lyrics of the song is about a girl who is trapped in a never ending nightmare where she is being chased by a monster she can't see. In the end she resigns herself to her fate but she asks the monster to at least let her see it before it kills her. So the musical style complements the theme of the song because its arranged like repeating episodes. Like repeating dreams. To add to the discomfort if you notice at the start Su actually starts out of time or off the beat making you feel instinctively that something's not right. Finally there are a lot of abrupt stop and start moments with different changes in the time signature. All together it creates this dark Alice in wonderland feel of being stuck in a repetitive uncomfortable cycle.
Thank you for this. That's incredible. I love the stories behind the music.
@@SossIsBoss Akatsuki is about two lovers who are forced to duel to the death and its played out through a battling guitars duet. You'll really enjoy it!
f*ck yes great reaction!!
next Ijime Dame Zettai live sonisphere!!!
You should do one of their cute songs now that we've given you a soft landing. Maybe 'Catch Me If you can' that is cute but also legit heavy. Or if you're feeling brave 'onedari Daisakusen' but I don't think you're ready for that yet.
FYI it's only the official Babymetal videos that you have to pause. Ones like this from regular users are safe because they already made it past the block bots to get posted to CZcams.
I'm down to go for a cuter one, just because of the bigtime contrast in it! I'm trying different methods on these reactions so I can continue to post them!
@@SossIsBoss - if you think Rondo and RoR are a big contrast you ain't seen nothing yet. :). I think Catch me if you can has the biggest contrast but sadly the live versions on CZcams are b or b- at best. The great performances of it are from concerts that are blocked.
@@SossIsBoss You should do this version here czcams.com/video/ng8U_j0gpLI/video.html . It's the only real live version on CZcams and it's the same concert as Rondo of Nightmare. The rest are real bad compilations in which different people are playing the same guitar solo, etc because of location switches during them.
In the world of music there are many different kinds of musicians and then there are drummers ^^
Don't sweat the lyrics too much. One of the reasons the band works so well around the world is that they work hard to break the language barrier and put through the meaning of their songs with the music, vocals, expressions, and choreo. This one in particular is about being stuck in a recurring nightmare, and even without the specific lyrics, based on the title and the way the music cycles and the tone of the vocals you can really pick up on that after a listen or 2. Great reaction!
If you wanna try another really fun Japanese band, check out the song ORIAN by NEMOPHILA. They're a new supergroup that formed about a year ago and they're finding a fantastic groove together: czcams.com/video/eyb2NtPwcxc/video.html
One of my favorite parts (and one I valiantly sucked at describing) was the language difference, and how the lyrics sung in a different language just flowed soooooo well.
Awesome!! Great reaction... Su and the Kamis are serious business.
From your first reactions, I *knew* you'd flip when the bass tapped in.
Great reaction, I was really surprised that Headbanger live at Legend of 1997 was not the highest requested song but Rondo of Nightmare is also a great song especially the intro.
The reaction was amazing to see!! Love seeing people’s first reactions to Babymetals stuff!!! The Kami band was a great addition to them and all are so talented, and your boy “Boh the Bass God”!!! Welcome to “The One” 🦊 🦊
this is the best reaction of "rondo of nightmare", fawkin love it bro! 🤘🏻
Babymetal always brought a good mood 🤘🏿🦊🤘🏿
I liked your reaction you really transmit the enthusiasm and energy of someone who actually enjoys music despite labels, tags and genres. One of Babymetal'S characteristics is the mix a lot of different genres in each of their songs. I would like to see you react to their live video for "Ijime, Damme, zettai" live at sonicsphere 2014. That video is very special to Babymetal because it mark their international debut. I hope you can do it, keep up the good reactions. ✌🏻
Please react to akatsuki babymetal live
No rain No rainbow Legend S version Next ;)
If you like her voice here you'll love the newer live versions, assuming any of them would make it past copyrights (grumble grumble). She was only 16 or so here and now that she's in her early 20s her voice is even more solid and much matured. They've only gotten better with time.
Great reaction! My brothers said everything you need to know! Hope you do more songs of BABYMETAL! 🤘🦊🤘
I have an Alpine DVD player for my car stereo with a bypass to play while I drive and I have had the Budokan dvd playing on a loop for the last 3 years. No I don’t watch while I drive, but the sound is superior. It thumps. The intro is Mischief of Metal Gods leading into Rondo of Nightmare. The double guitar solo on Akatsuki is the best in my opinion.
Such an awesome song! I have listened to this many, many times over the last three years, but I still catch myself just gazing at Su with an open mouth and close to tears. The melody is just so beautiful, and it has such an intense dark atmosphere. Fantastic!
at a base point, look at the color change and tone in her voice. She's telling a story after all.
Great reaction video. I absolutely love when Kami band gets to shine. Another banger try sis Anger. Keep up the excellent work
"Megitsune" live is amazing too!
Great reaction, Rondo of Nighmare is great song and so heavy . Please reaction BABYMETAL - Catch me if you can live Budokan Black Night . That's same live of this song . Enjoy 🤘😁
I have this show on Blu-Ray, watched 1000 people react to it, it's on the thumb drive in my car. It never gets old. You might want to try a studio MV since you've done lives a few times. Megitsune, Headbangeeeerrrrr, BxMxC, Starlight, Distortion.... All are good. Well produced and directed.
Yeah that high note man you are the first reactor I have ever heard mention that everybody talks about the voice flexation or what not but I've never heard the high note mentioned it is absolutely beautiful good ear you are definitely going to get ensnared🍅💀🤘
Do "pa pa ya". That's a banger and also fun, I think it's about a typical Thai spicy salad that is made with papaya, it's featuring "F Hero" which is, I think, a known Thai rapper
Nice reaction, you already heard how good they were in pure hard/speed and trash metal by 2 songs, how about checking their at how good they combining kawai (cute) and metal next?
Headbangeer! From Legend of 1997 live concert (2013)
Catch me if you can, Budokan live (the same concert of Rondo)
Metal is freedom, in BabyMetal world you will find yourself a new definition of happy headbanging, happy mosh pit and wall of death.
Keep them coming and keep the good work.
Another great reaction, thanks!
What do I think about BABYMETAL and this song? I LOVE BABYMETAL and this song is absolutely amazing. And my feelings about them all cannot be explained with words :)
For me, it's okay to pause and comment about something from time to time if it's needed, so thumbs up!
See you next time!
Got a big smile on my face watching your reaction to Rondo of Nightmare. This is why the Kamis are the band of the gods ànd why Su who is only 16 in this performance is called Queen and a Goddess by fans
and is worshipped. Scary thing is Su is neary 23 now ( dec) and is even more impressive . Hope we get more BabyMetal reactions subed in anticipation of this . 🤘🦊🤘
Live is almost always best with Babymetal, just keep that in mind as you keep going :P As they said themselves, live performance is their #1 thing. And their japanese arena shows are HUGE production. As for the lyrics, NOT knowing the first time through is sometimes even better because you can focus on the sound and composition more
My favorite part of your reaction is "ooOOOOOooOoooOoohh!" lol. But seriously yeah, they're excellent and it's a great testament to the talent over there. I've been looking up the drum solos of Senri Kawaguchi and watching Nyango Star. They're blowing it up over there man and I wish COVID wasn't here so I can actually go over there and experience some of these live shows and enjoy some real good tonkotsu ramen. *sigh*. Great reaction, you did good showing your genuine appreciation of the talent.
Yeah I thought the same thing the drummer is there just like it's another day 😂
Great reaction, as long as the video you checked wasn't from the official, not really have to pause it next time, more BabyMetal please, they are extremely cute and mind blowing
MORE BABYMETAL REACTIONS!!!
Love youre reaction! You are right down the the fox hole now! 🤘🦊❤😊 Stay home, stay safe, stay metal!
8583views!!!!! almost 10000views!!!! OMGOSH CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!
Haha thank you! Definitely appreciate everyone's support!
i like this song ALOT they don’t really perform it live anymore these days which is a Real SHAME-! if you’re gonna check out another song by them i recommend BxMxC. its their newest music video from this year, and the song is from their most recent album
Even without the badass intro, it's still a SICK song.
Fun Fact: Su-Metal (the singer) was only 16 at the time this concert was filmed. She also took a nap before the show, if it was me about to perform in front of 14,000 people I wouldn't be able to sleep. Hell when I was 16 I would get nervous before a show in front of 120 people at a VFW hall XD
Would you do a cute BABYMETAL track? rofl please react to AWADAMA FEVER :D
Amazing Reaction
Good reaction! There's lots of nuance in the song. Its called "Rondo of Nightmare". A rondo is a song comprised of different styles of music to make one song. In many ways lots of BabyMetal songs are Rondos. They incorporate different styles of music into one song to create a story. The story of BabyMetal and the drive and purpose behind them is pretty fun once you get into it. You should keep a lyric sheet/webpage around just so you can read the lyrics and get an idea of the content, but you're not wrong, the emotion of the musicians and singers makes the words irrelevant.
THE KAMI BAND OR BAND OF THE GODS - Represents spirits of great dead musicians who came back to life under the order of Fox God to accompany their Goddess and her two fairies to take over the world.
You're not a Babymetal fan until you've hear Gimme Chocolate!
Akatsoki next
We shall see! That's catching fire.
@@SossIsBoss ijime Dame zetai live legend,,you must see to
@@SossIsBoss Akatsuki is another Su solo, so I would save that until after you've seen a couple more songs with all three girls or maybe one of the Black BABYMETAL (that is Yui and Moa as a duo) songs or you will think they're all Su solos and you get less of what makes BABYMETAL different and unique ... and there are only 4 Su solos (plus a couple of cover songs she did).
'Ijime, Dame, Zettai' live at Sonisphere in the UK 2014 or 'Megitsune' would be good choices for your next reaction.
The bassist BOH plays a 6 string Atelier and before they started wearing masks, they painted the venue's name on his head...
absolutely amazing and wonderful song thanks for this reaction please more Babymetal 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺❤️🥺💞❤️❤️💓💞🌺🌸🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Looks like you forgot to pause :-) But as fas as I know this song/video doesn't need it.
I tried just giving consistent commentary/reaction the whole time as opposed to pausing frequently!
@@SossIsBoss you seemed very much engaged and just didn't want/forget to pause. I thought it was kind of funny. :-)
If you haven't already heard it moist boyz valley of the sun. And baby metal is always a good time. Band maid is like this
I strongly recommend "Akatsuki - live at Budokan (Black Night)" for next BABYMETAL. Cheers! Nice reaction!
If you like the KamiBand, you should check out "Gathering of Metal Warriors" or/and "Hills of Wisteria" The first is basically the Kamiband jamming out, the other is a tribute concert for the death of the guitarist Mikio. Babymetal veterans can probably give you more details. Enjoy your Babymetal journey.
Man I need moaarrrr!!!! 😭😭🤣

I could go to war to this song like think of any medieval wall of death scene in a movie full spear charge right as she holds the note (think LOTR, Narnia The lion the witch and the wardrobe, or the endgame wall)
Babymetal 🤩😍
Your actually one of the few reactors to this song adopt the side to side move with the chorus
How can I not? If the music dictates it, you do it!
What a great reaction. It made my day a little easier :)
Super glad any time I can help make someones day!
" that's it ? " well ... yeah , that's 7+ minutes video and don't read the lyric or subtitle for your first react to Babymetal songs because not knowing the meaning of the song will tell you if you enjoying it or not.
I was mostly surprised because the intro had me in a trance. Haha. I like to go into these reactions BASICALLY blind, if I can. Like, no research or anything so it's all fresh to me.
Queen SU and her Kamis! :)
After a 7 minute video, "that was it?". I know how you feel, it goes by in a flash.
I agree with the other comments, you should do Catch Me If You Can next (linked it in a reply before, doing it again) czcams.com/video/ng8U_j0gpLI/video.html . It's probably the song with the biggest contrast between vocals (and lyrics) and music, at least when it comes to songs with all three on stage.
I also think you should do some newer stuff in the near future. I usually hate compilations, but it's the only live videos we got of BABYMETAL after 2014 (excluding the two live performances on their official channel who suffer heavily from copyright blocks). How about "Starlight", the first song of the so-called "Trilogy of Lights" and the unofficial tribute to deceased Kami Band guitarist Mikio Fujioka. He died in January 2018, a few days after falling from an observation deck while star gazing on New Years (you should read the lyrics after that one, too) czcams.com/video/ZC5Ci-Mt_RU/video.html . There's an official music video for it, but the song has way more impact live in my opinion. Zimmer's compilations are definitely some of the better ones, especially because they write the concert and audio sources in their descriptions and don't switch locations every 2 seconds.
A little explanation about the Trilogy of Lights beforehand, if you decide to watch it (everything unofficial): It's their songs Starlight, Shine and Arkadia from the latest album, Metal Galaxy (it's pretty important to do it in this order and the Zimmer channel has all three as live compilations). They stand for Loss, Acceptance, Moving on, respectively (amongst other interpretations). A lot of fans think these three songs as a trilogy represent their year 2018, which was a very dark one with the death of Mikio, the leaving of Yui, the uncertainties that came with it and their decision to continue as a duo (with one of three rotating support dancers, aka Avengers, on stage at live shows).
Damn I just love your reactions. Funny, but I don't really care about not understanding the lyrics in a song. I just enjoy feeling it. It's the same with my other favorite group Rammstein which sings in German.
They have an all English version of The One (you haven't reacted to that one yet) and to tell you the truth, I prefer the original version. As you said, the words just seem to fit perfectly when she sings in Japanese. Although I truly appreciate her efforts to learn English, their songs sound a lot better in Japanese imo.
I really love that you really love my reactions! Means a lot to me, honestly!

Love your reactions. Seeing you get so much joy out of this band is a treat. In terms of genre mashing interesting bands, you should check out Zeal & Ardor. Mix of Black Metal and Soul/Spirituals. Its chilling. I'd recommend Blood in the River as a first and Servants as a second, if you like it.
Me after watching a 1h 30m long Babymetal live set: *that's it???*
グレイトリアクション！ありがとう！Fox God🤘🦊🤘
Yes. Nuts. If you mispronounce the song name, "Line"... well, just don't. Also, best to enjoy the song at least once before you look at the lyrics.

About the lyrics.
Don't feel bad that you cant understand them, music transcends language.
As maybe a farfetched example, I don't understand understand Italian, but that doesn't mean Pavarotti's rendition of nessun dorma didn't get me to tears.
