07:47 Mixi's Craziest Gig!
#nemophila #nemophilareaction #stitchedupheart - Hudba
Heh - I saw Mixi on Shiprocked last year. She tore it up! Rock on, Sir! 🤘😎👍
Everything that Mixi said. I think she'd enjoy seeing one of their MV's and a live performance too!
MIXI is really gorgeous.
I'm really glad they cleaned up the solos in later iterations of this song, but Mixi's absolutely right. Seeing them have so much fun together is what really sets Nemophila apart.
Still my favorite NEMOPHILA video. When we first watched this, we had no idea of the many great things yet to come.
Knocked it out of the park on that choice for a Nemophila introduction Joel !.. So glad she liked Nemophila..They are amazing, and she is amazing!
We need her back on!
So I've watched all the Mixi reactions. From a guy who's been playing and writing since 78. 25 in Nashville. You need to go to Japan Mixi. They'd love ❤️ you! The Japanese girl band thing started with the Runaways in 78. It was bigger in Japan than the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. Changed the culture. Band Maid favorite. But totally get why you favor Nemophila they're awesome! Can't wait for the Hanabie reaction! Thanks Joel 😊
I used to know a guy called Doobie Jones, nice fella. 🤔Well, apart from on serial killer Sundays :)
Doobie - The problems for Mixi is that they really do not like tattoos in Japan. Tattoos is the mark of Yakuza, the Japanese maffia, and you might not be let in at certain places. Or you might have to cover them up, and Mixi has tattoos that are hard to cover up, mainly those on the throat. I am not sure if they can make exceptions for obvious foreigners.
That's true about what you said about tattoos, but people's perception is changing quickly especially toward the western style tattoos as opposed to traditional Yakuza tattoos. I see a lot of young guys with tattoos these days in Japan.
As a Japanese man in his mid 60's, I vividly remember the impact that the Runaways had on us. Their song, Cherry Bomb, was a huge hit in Japan. I would not be surprised if they inspired many Japanese young women to get into rock.
@GaryHolloway-810 Gary I'm a CEREAL KILLER. Especially after a Doobie.
The drummer in this band is insane. One of the best I’ve ever seen.
Working mom's in rock (drummer has 2 little ones and singer one) The drummers oldest shows up in making of clip and wanders in during a lockdown stream with mom using the electrroinc practice kit
Wow that was fun! I didn't know Stitched Up Heart but I spent some time on their channel and now I'm a fan. Thanks for the introduction!
With a first original song as good as Oiran, it's no surprise that Nemophila continue to make great music. I really enjoy drummer Tamu's radiant pregnancy smile in this clip as well. So good!
Yes, these Japanese ladies are having fun, even if they're singing about ripping your heart out 👍😎🥰
Joel, there is a series of live videos from Nemophilas appearance at Whiskey A GoGo. They are really good. I especially liked that one of my under appreciated favorites, Fighter, was included
Gran reacción me gustó mucho! Un gran saludo amigos desde Buenos Aires!
Nemophila es una linda banda!
😎🤘
I knew she would like Nemophila. I can't wait to see how she reacts to Hanabie! 😁🤪
Fully agree, on both accounts!
Woo hoo.🙆♂️ CM, Brandy & i have got tickets for Lovebites at the Newcross Inn, London, Jun 14th.🤯
@@GaryHolloway-810 I am so happy for you guys, I wish I could join you!
@@TheCyberMantis I wish you could too :)
Mixi is great 🔥🤘 Talking about Nemophila..Imo..they are the most talented band out there..They have it all: Passion 🔥 Work 💪 Heart ❤️ Talent 🙏🏻 I just wish that western world discovers this wonderful band ❤️
YES!! Thank you for listening to your subscribers. SHE LOVES NEMOPHILA!! Good song to pick. I would've gone with an actual live version, but I'm cool with this. Meanwhile I'm sitting here saying to myself, I hope hope, HOPE he suggests Hanabie next. Aaaand he goes straight to it!! YES!! ANOTHER WIN!! Can't wait to see that one. Best guest. Best series.
Oh PLEASE show Mixi MergingMoon - Greyen (LIVE Clip Official)! Her mind will explode :)
SAKI !!! 🎸🔥🤘
She is so fine.
Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san!
Hey Dave i have some great news, well for me anyway. I've got 2 tickets to see Lovebites at the Newcross Inn, London, 14th Jun. 😌
@@GaryHolloway-810
Fami, Fami, Fami?
I hope you have a great time 😀.
@@MaartenT Thx Maarten. Now if BAND-MAID & Nemophila come too i'll be a deliriously happy man. P.S You wouldn't have to dare me to scream "FAMI SO CUTEABLE" at an appropriate moment when the crowd dies down cos i'm gonna do it anyway.😁
@@GaryHolloway-810 just priced tickets to London $2000ish or 1000 pounds (cattle class) so cheaper than I thought but the next step up is $5000 or 2500 pounds (premium cattle class) so i'm thinking I would need a second band to see to make it worthwhile
@@DavidMISAMISAMISACook Yep that'd be some damn expensive concert tickets especially when no one even knows how long the set list will be . Newcross Inn is an adequate venue but it only holds 350 people, i was hoping they might've played at the Hammersmith odeon instead :(
Once again, I love that Mixi reacts the best way at each great moment of the song. Important to make her know it was actually their first original song (and the one that cemented a strong fanbase from the start). Ok, next Hanabie, she should love 'em.
There's no way Mixi won't like Hanabie, Doc.😁
Cool as f@ck...they can play
The Warning is on Shiprocked right now
🤘🤘🤘🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🔥🔥🔥
Cool reaction, you need to show her Hanabie if she likes screams. Edit: Ha ha, wrote that before the video finished.
Give Mixi HANABIE!! She'll definitely love it.
Joel, How about doing Atarashii Gakko for Mixi and let her know they will be at Coachella in April?!?!? Otona Blu from The First Take would be good.
🙄
They are so brutal live. I wish the videos did them justice. 🔥
The video did them justice. It is obviously in a rehearsal studio and it is obviously live. Mixi commented on that. She liked that it was a rehearsal that was so good. So - I see no problems having this version as a reaction. It is also very well balanced between all instruments, including singing, so you can hear everyone.
This is more raw than most of their Blu-rays or Studio albums ever after this. The closest you can get to a "real" live sound next to see them in person is catching a streamed liveshow or I guess some of the Naon No Yaon videos. All the rest is post-processed, the live Blu-rays aren't overly processed in Nemophila's case, but they certainly aren't raw. This video might have some production, but there is no way they would have left in all the mistakes if they went though it completely, it actually sounds pretty genuine to my ear. Their albums (especially Seize The Fate and Evolve) have a large amount of production on them.
@rolandkarlsson7072 Don't get me wrong. I think this song is fine. I was just saying that I think it's difficult to capture the energy and wall of sound you'll experience at one of their live shows. I suppose that's true for most great bands.
Best intro to nemophila would be "zen" & "now i here" back to back to demonstrate both sides of mayu's vocals.
Next let her watch and react to HANABIE song We Love Sweets..... 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Nice! This version of Oiran is probably the best one, no matter studio and live version. Just because they have so much fun and give it all. I think this was quite early in their cooperation and it was also new for them. You can see how much Haraguchi-san enjoys it, but also the other members. Nemophila is magic. Five super talented girls that found each other in Tamu's rehearsal studio. The chemistry is soo good between those girls.
For me, Nemophila’s best song is Rise (mv). 🎶
MIXI, in your last reaction to Band Maid you asked why there are so many exquisite female metal musicians in Japan. There are many reasons, here are the maybe most important (spoiler: it's not the local water):
-- Many grew up in wealthy middle class families where work ethic, discipline and commitment was a normal must.
-- Many started learning piano in private lessons at the age of 3-5. Normally they learned at least a second instrument at the age of 12-15, maybe later a third or forth instrument. A good example is Nemophila's Tamu (first name) MURATA (family name) who plays piano, drums, saxophone, xylophone, flute and maybe other instruments which I forgot.
-- Many of them continued playing music at specialised schools and universities. Some are financed by the J-pop industry.
-- The huge Anime and J-pop industry offer enough possibilities for young musicians to earn money and make a living out of their music. Typical example is Misa, the bassist of Band Maid, who earned her first money in a back band of a J-pop singer, famous in Japan.
-- Anime expositions open the doors for international appearances.
-- Specialised concerts for female-only bands.
-- Several changed the genre. Tamu e.g. already had a career as a jazz drummer (in this period she learned sax) before she joined Nemophila. Asami, the singer of Lovebites started as a trained classic ballet dancer. After she had to give up due to an accident, she became an R&B back-up singer and finally came to Lovebites. There is a nice anecdote about her knowledge of the metal scene at the time. They band wanted to make a cover of Judas Priest's "Painkiller" and Asami asked "Judas who?" (btw one of Lovebites' best songs). The most striking example probably is Lovebites' Miyako, the dark haired guitarist and main composer of the band. She has a university degree as a classic piano player. At they age of 18 she self-taught her guitar. Listen to Swan Song with Chopin intro, where she switches seemingly effortless from piano to guitar. Nice is also the studio version (Corona years) of "Burden of Time" where she plays guitar than starts playing keyboard with the right hand while continuing guitar with the left hand. In many Lovebites songs one can find elements of 19th century classic music.
-- A last point I want to mention is their motivation. Metal always had to do something with rebellion against something. Here is it the tight role of women in the conservative Japanese society. A way of women's lib., emancipation.
PS. A very last point is that most of these ladies are well educated in Japanese culture and traditional music, another source of inspiration. As an example listen to Band Maiko (= Band Maid) were they (fake) play traditional Jap. instruments, e.g. the shamisen. Most famous for this fusion of modern western and old Japanese instruments is the Wagakki Band. Listen to 焔 (Homura) + 暁ノ糸 (Akatsuki no Ito) / 1st JAPAN Tour 2015 Hibiya Yagai Ongakudo. A must know.
A MIXI ROCK/METAL CRUISE IS THE ONLY KIND OF CRUISE THAT WOULD BE AWESOME AND PERFECT FOR ME. THE MUSIC FANS ONBOARD WOULD BE AS AWESOME AS THE SETTING.
ADO - UNRAVEL - LIVE !?!?!?! FOR A WOMAN CAN SCREAM FOR MIXI.
The Warning is just finished shiprock. I think the ship hit a pier. Every one was taken off so they could repair it. Good review.
Oh you def gotta put her on to Hanabie and Saiseiga for the growls
I thought Mixi might really like Nemophila, and I have a feeling she's going to love Hanabie as well.
現在はガールズバンドの時代
you should show her jinjer pieses live session or jinjer perennial or another band Seven Spires Gods of Debaunchery Music Video i think she would like them please let me know what you think
Why the demo version?🤔
Hah! The Warning r playing Shiprocked this week.
I want to see her reaction to Hanabie.
Me too! 😆
Screaming? Saiseiga!
Kind of baffled why someone would choose this version over the amazing live version posted more recently.
I agree.
@@TheCyberMantis Not saying this wasn't cool in its moment but they have become so much tighter since then, without losing any of the fire or enthusiasm.
And this version doesn't even have SAKI's dramatic back-bend at the end of her solo! Sheesh, without that it's not legit 'Oiran'!
@@Dead-EyeMetal You are a true fan. Much respect to you.
I still enjoy this one and it's still worth checking it out imo, but it's basically a demo of the track. Some of the solo's in this version and some of the tracks of their Yaon performance in the beginning of their career are pretty muddy (honestly, there are lot of mistakes in the solo's in this version), probably because of them not really being used to each others style yet and still figuring out how they want to perform the song. But this is still one of my favourite tracks by Nemophila (it might be number 1 actually) and any version is worth chekcing out in my book. I do think this video shows how well they work together though and how much fun they are having and that's a really important part of Nemophila as well.
Sorry guys - I think this version is fire! It has so much enthusiasm. And the proof is in the pudding. Mixi loved it. So Joel made a perfect choice. Yeah, sometimes Joel make strange choices. But not this time IMNSHO. It would be nice if people stop to complain when the result obviously was a big hit. It is OK to have suggestions to Joel and maybe tell him when the choice was very bad. But just whining over (in your opinion) not 100% optimal choices is not cool.
they had so great Official Live Videos recently, and you took one out of the practice room for introduction ? Thats not a great introduction to a band, not that any of their music is anything but great, but I'd rather shown some good quality stuff for introducing someone to the band.
She loved what she saw and heard, I think it went great as far as an introduction goes as it looked like Nemophila got a new fan.
Why would you show this when there is a top quality live version of it? I get wanting to switch it up, but when that comes via showing shit quality, it definitely is not worth it. And no matter how the fanboys want to see this through their goggles, this is shit mixing and shit sound. And can't even argue that this is better because they "have fun", they definitely have more fun and more interactions in the real on-stage live version.
Also, Zen would obviously have been the song of choice to show a guest that is a harsh vocalist herself...
Mixi is awesome and really nice and I think her band is great!! I would like to see her react to the all female band from South Korea called Rolling Quartz with their song Fearless. It’s a banger and super catchy!!
