    Pasting from a kind youtuber:
    "For those that don't understand Japanese, this song is about "kakurenbo", the Japanese version of hide-and-seek. Except they are playing it with an Oni (a mythical creature that usually gets translated as *demon*). You hear the Oni say "mo ikai" (are you ready) and the girls reply "mada da yo" (not yet) which is kakurenbo's version "ready or not here I come". They are playfully teasing and toying with the Oni by running from it (represented by the signature dance) and saying "oni-san kochira" (this way Mr. Oni) and "te no naru ho e" (follow my clapping)."

    There's an entire arena of people rocking the fuck out, a giant custom stage setup that's fox and occult themed, a live band of some of the best session guys in the business, and some cute Japanese girls saying Hi and making people want to rip the chairs out of the building.

      It's actually done on purpose, this song is based on a children's story 青鬼と赤鬼, or the story of the red and blue ogre. The ogres only want friends and when the children run from them the red ogre goes to find (and subsequently kill) them, while the blue ogre brings sense to the red ogre. Hense かくれんぼ, or hide and seek

The quality of the live music and Suzuka’s singing, complemented by the girls dancing (Su included) is what was refreshing to experience. Not to mention their crowd control!

      Take it from the old school headbanger who discovered heavy metal back in 1983 and is likely old enough to be some people here's father; most metalheads hate, fear, and dread anything that brings something new and different to the table. Me, I'm easily bored and have always appreciated different kinds of music all my life, so I'm not surprised I appreciate Babymetal as much as I do. This is something fresh, new, and unique, and I love it for that reason. Yeah, yeah, I know, they're packaged, bla bla yadda yadda--I don't care. What band isn't, these days? Got news for some of you out there; one of the reasons that most bands sound alike these days in particular is the total lack of innovation and uniqueness forced upon them by the music biz, and that was one of the reasons I bailed on the music biz many, many years ago. Bands are made to play what sells records, like it or not, and I'm just glad that the Japanese music biz at least is open to trying new things AKA throwing things at the wall and working with whatever sticks. That's what makes it unique and interesting, to me. Faisal, I think you're right!

  • @SeanPat1001
    @SeanPat1001 Před 2 lety +3363

    It seems to be a lot of misunderstanding about BABYMETAL. Here is a little background.
    About 10 years ago, the three girls were in a kind of specialty middle school called Sakura Gakuin. The two younger girls, Yui and Moa auditioned for the school because Sū, who was already a well-known performer, was there. SG was a school for young women who wanted to be performers. Sū was already an actor and the younger girls shared her enthusiasm. They are actors who sing and dance. When they perform they are not simply singing and dancing, but they are also acting out a story. For example, Gimmie Chocolate is part of a story in which the younger girls are corrupted by demons and eventually turned into wax figurines. The older girl outwitted the demons, rescued the other two and flew away in a heavy metal arc to a place of safety. The song is about the time they became fixated on chocolate, which was the first step in a sequence of temptations that led them to their doom. The song in this video is about three young girls that are playing a game of hide and seek with a demon. If any one of them lose that one will be carried off by the demon never to be seen again.
    Anyhow, about 12 years ago, one of their teachers asked them about heavy-metal and they said they knew nothing about it. So they were given a project of inventing heavy-metal from some very basic ideas. It was just supposed to be a class project, but somebody made a cell phone video of their presentation and within a year they had fans all over the world.
    Everything that BabyMetal does on stage flowed from that idea. The girls have written only one song, Song 4. The rest were written by others, the music was written by others. There is a lot of reference to an homage of heavy-metal Japanese music in BABYMETAL music. There’s also a lot of homage in reference to heavy-metal music from all over the world.
    However, the girls are the ones who develop the dances. They have a choreographer who certainly played a big role but most of the input came from the girls themselves. When Su-metal, the taller one with the big mic, performs she is acting in a role as she sings the song. As a result she conveys a lot of emotion through her voice and I feel that is one of her main qualities. She has been singing in this way since 2007. The two younger ones mainly express themselves through dance.
    These kids paid their duesThey have bee performing all over the world for over ten years. They went on their first world tour while the younger two were still in middle school! They have accomplished things that most people thought were impossible. They had the first Japanese-language hits in the US in decades. They’ve had a tremendous influence on the music industry. Right now because of the Covid situation they are not performing much. But they’re hoping to come back to the stage soon, because they are troupers.

    I first saw this video in 2021, had never heard of them, and was totally blown away by this video-then the Biker Hello Kitty Girls show up, and I became a fan.
    Then I saw the Gimme Chocolate video.
    Sadly, I had no idea that Mikio Fujioka had already passed 4 years before I had first seen him, and 7 years (today) before I found out.

      @@Arthur_Rodri The first BBM video I saw was the official version of Road of Resistance.
      Three little girls come out and proceed to lay claim to the stage by planting their flags. Then they advance to a smaller stage deep within the audience, where Su-Metal proceeds to recruit thousands of fans into her Heavy Metal army.
      I was blown away by the extreme detail in staging, the absolute synchronization of the music, the singing, the dancing, and the lights.
      Then, I found out how young they were. 😳

      There's no other band on Earth like Babymetal, it's a love letter to heavy rock that just gives zero fucks about whether it conforms to that genre's stereotype. Which to me is metal as fuck.

      When you watching BABYMETAL on stage, you are seeing the people that created the dance. Also, the girls are actors who can sing and dance. So, when Su-Metal belts out those ballads, she’s usually not just singing a song. She’s playing a character.
      I think this is why one reason why BABYMETAL can sing songs and Japanese all over the world and people can respond. They’re not just singing words but conveying emotion to the audience.
      It’s simply amazing.

    Only the Japanese can get away with adding JPop to metal without making it suck. Good job.

      The three singers get a lot of attention but that backing band is seriously awesome.

    Man, I never knew how much I needed music from a J-Pop, Death Metal band! Babymetal is my favorite band for today. Arigato Gozaimashita!
