If you listen to the MV of choose me and then the live version...Akane and Kanami literally don't miss a beat....and the vocals were perfection. Play is an absolute masterpiece in musician ship with Misa taking charge !!!!!!
After Saiki's surgery a few years back her vocals are just going from strength to strength.
Miku is showcasing 3 different vocal styles in Choose Me - deep froggy, regular Miku, and ultra falsetto Miku.💪🏻🤘🏻
Most people miss that she does that. True fans hear it though.
@@David-yt6kp
Damn straight.💪🏻🤘🏻
Probably using some kind of a vocal effect on her voice to do that. Nevertheless all of them it fits the song beautifully !

Miku is the best at harmonies I've ever heard.
There is nothing on earth like a Band-Maid instrumental. They are all superb - and the beginning of Play is just one example. I love the trade-off between Miku and MISA. Our little pidgeon has grown so much that she can now really spread her wings!
The crowd at every show is similar to this one.
That live version of play has the greatest intro to any song I've ever heard
Edit: Moratorium is a song you'll dig, should do that one next.
Ahm czcams.com/video/_vFuQ2xQkQ4/video.html
Moratorium - czcams.com/video/o1-aoS56eGc/video.html
I second this, and You
I'd recommend this version: czcams.com/video/u5kH_wHbKww/video.html
4+ minutes of pure rock'n'roll sass and swagger. In frilly dresses.
@@normanweaver7935 Seriously DO NOT dilly dally this is THE version to watch, then official Real Existence live. The mixing of that show is light years better.
Always choose Band-Maid.
Nothing really to say about Band-Maid...
I absolutely just ❤️ them... and like every song they got
Choose me was used as a background in Peacemaker and the Maids made a cameo playing it in Kate a netflix movie.
MISA is on fire on Play (as a bass fan she is my favourite Maid), her thundering riffs expertly weave through their songs. Along with Ale from The Warning, she is one of my favourite current bass players 🤘
100% every song is a masterpiece
@@Cheezyxyz I think most of their songs are only great because they're performed by Band-Maid. Play is a well written song.
I just wish Ale from The Warning had more than 2 moves 😅. MISA is my favorite though, but all the Maids are awesome.
@@KenpachiZarakiX I agree MISA is amazing, she can pick, slap and pop at lightning speed without dropping the pick 😄 Ale is young but she is getting better. MISA is the mistress of thunder in my opinion
Check out the bass, jazz, rock groove in, " Wonderland " ❤️🎙🎸🥁😎🤘 Sai Chans vocals, are Killer!!
BAND-MAID are Awesomeazing! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
The song Play was originally an instrumental but Saiki lead vocals liked it so much , she asked Miku Rhythm guitar to write lyrics for it , now it a great audience participation song , when the Small Pigeon says sing you sing .
Great reaction. Love your cooment about the tradeoff between bass, drums and lead. Play is a concert staple for them and it was a blast at the 2 shows I was at. The crowd participation was great
Thank you for all the wonderful reaction videos.
These reactions show that they have achieved their biggest goal: to make people smile by watching their performances and LIVE.
Music(音楽）, written in Japanese, means "enjoying the sound."
BAND-MAID believes that unlike just rock and pop music, BAND-MAID is a one-of-a-kind music genre that people can share, enjoy themselves, seek new ways to enjoy, challenge themselves, and get excited together.
Entertaining people, sometimes encouraging them, cheering them up, and cuddling with them may be the origin of music.
Please continue to have fun and keep making videos. From Japan
(Sorry if the machine translation is difficult to understand).
Thank you for explanation of the meaning of music in Japanese!!
BAND-MAID are a Pop group that plays crushing Hard Rock, and sometimes Jazz.
And are progressive. And they play punk, and punk pop, and heavy metal... and thrash metal ... and ... anything ...
At 12:05 of your video you see the face Miku makes when she say "Sei" into the mic. Well during their recent US Tour, her birthday kinda sorta happened on the date of their Dallas show. And Well.... during her Omajinai time she kinda sorta got, maybe surprised by certain things being held aloft by the audience. See the following: czcams.com/video/sBrFTkVg6S0/video.html As for what's next? Anything by the Ladies will fill that part of your soul that hungers for good music. So pick anything in the 120+ discography and you won't be disappointed.
This was the theme song for Netflix's Kate production. Ladies really sound great here though. I definitely noticed a significant improvement as their US tour progressed. Still one of my favorite tracks from their new album!!
"Choose Me" -- a song featured in the Netflix original movie "KATE" as BAND MAID, has so many great RnR chops, it's kinda unbelievable. From Saiki's old-school phrasing, cadence and a super soulful vocal at the end; MISA's driving bass, her special riff after Kanami's brilliant, rocking main solo (complete with harmonic pinch), and her pulls at the end of the song that really funks it up with Akane's drumming; to Kanami's original composition, off-beat octave stretches during the verses, and her addition of a second uncomplicated yet super tasty solo; to Akane's unique snare & tom flurry that launches the choruses; and to Miku's octave-down, in & out vocal backup and lyrics... all makes "Choose Me" a throwback rocker that surprised me when I first heard it - and I'll bet most anyone - that they would come up with this western-style, rock 'n roll classic.
Of course, after years later, it's not surprising at all coming from this important band of geniuses who are almost single-handedly bringing back the joys and soulfulness of rock for people from all places and ages to hear. Here's a great, better studio mixed MV of "Choose Me" that's more punchy: czcams.com/video/MZIJ2vFxu9Y/video.html Thx, Cheez!
Choose Me is the song Band-Maid played in their appearance in the Netflix film Kate. The movie also included a car-theft scene in which Band-Maid's song Blooming was playing on the car radio.
Love it love it love it. My new fav band.
I've been binge watching their stuff the last 3 days and they are amazing....I cant believe I have waited this long to listen to them properly
Great reaction Cheezy :)
welcome to the fandom! Have links for a few vids not on youtube if you want
That's what this community is all about! Thanks for letting me know 😎🧀🤘
Another Maidiac in the making! Welcome!!🤘😝
The Queens of RnR
How can something so cute and little be soo Badass on Guitar - Love Kanami
Dont forget to hit up 3 of their biggest MV's tho - warning, blooming, and daydreaming :) These 3 are MUSTS for music video reactions- so intersperse them with official lives maybe?
onset or moratorium etc etc. There are even some AMAZING songs that dont have videos at all and you'll have to react to just music - like freezer and many more- but we will get to those :)
Blooming is a masterpiece, so well written and played
The ultimate in the instrumental trade off conversation or battle which ever you want to call it is DON'T YOU TELL ME live version from Zepp Tokyo.
YES! The trade-off of all trade-offs! This fan-edited mix czcams.com/video/-PRRU-wQpeA/video.html is pretty amazing. It seamlessly mixes several concerts, getting the 2020 extra intro in addition to the long bass/lead guitar section.
Great reaction to two of my favourite songs. It’s nice you picked out that bass counterpoint after Kanami’s solo in Choose Me. So many people completely miss it.
The only problem with the Shibuya concert was Kanami was too low in the mix.
One thing that would be cool attending a Band-Maid concert is not only would you feel exhausted after jumping and dancing but your cheeks would be sore from smiling so much! 😊
Merry Christmas.🎉
100%
Merry Christmas and cheers to the New Year!
BAND-MAID'S Play = The GREATEST.......song........ intro.......EVER!! Of course, I'm a bit biased, since it's one of my All-Time Favorite songs!
Next up:
Triple Call n Response Reaction vid: Don't You Tell Me, Turn Me On & Take Me Higher - all Live, you will LOVE 'em!!
Thanks again!🤘🤩🤘
Haha, I was looking for this comment, hands down best intro ever
@@kyles5513 😁👍
It's cool everything about this song
Merry Christmas Cheezy...If you can find the song Turn me on...watch out for the guitar solo...one of the best of Kanami...
I 100% support Turn Me On. The solo is fantastic, but don't forget the tasteful back-and-forth between Kanami and MISA leading into the solo. The live version is here czcams.com/video/l9ibUQ-V-Z4/video.html . It got the juicy extra intro (compared to the official version).
They are really awesome and I can’t get enough Band-Maid, so many catchy well written songs with great melodies and hard rocking edge!!
I recommend:
1. Don’t You Tell Me (live version)
2. Rinne
3. Secret My Lips
4. Take me higher
5. Moritorium
6. Warning
On Don't you tell me, it should be the Live Zepp version with the Bass/Lead guitars duel.
Clang with Kanami and Misa tapping intro is a good one too
Band Maid manage to rock hard but still look relaxed and in control. Kanami manages some very complex riffs but never breaks into a sweat, just the happy, slightly goofy look and often the wounded seagull dance moves. Our dearest scruffy little genius maid Super talented band, super professional.
Their ability to do call&response stuff is unique especially because Misa can play literally anything. You can find quite a few bands that have brilliant guitarists, drummers, singers. But bass players who can carry whole songs are very rare. Play is, I think, one of their first songs where they completely swap the traditional roles of the guitars and the bass for a full verse - bass is playing the melody, guitars are doing percussion. Since then, Miku improved a lot on the rhythm guitar, so there is even more room for this in the most recent songs. Up to the point of having the bass and the lead guitar playing seemingly unrelated meandering melodies over each other, only to come together when it is most effective. Most bands can't do that even if they wanted.
Thank you for reacting to my favorite song, nice reaction! Saiki's vocals stand out in the live version of "Choose Me" and I love it. The moment she sings "I choose you," I feel my blood pressure rise by about 20 points.
Choose Me always makes me think of two other songs. They are Puzzle, and Secret My Lips.
For me the great part about Play is that it was originally an instrumental, but Saiki said to Miku, "how about we get some lyrics for Play ??" Naturally, Miku says "Hell Yeah !", and the rest is, as they say, history.
That's awesome!
@@Cheezyxyz Yeah, it's just so.....Band-Maid !!! Miku has a real touch with her lyrics and so does Saiki. But Akane, Kanami and Misa form such a great power trio. And Miku has become a quite excellent rythym guitarist after only learning to play after the band formed. It's like they think with one mind also.
The trio has such a tight sound together
@@Cheezyxyz You have to see them live, it's even better than you could possibly imagine. I saw them twice on their US tour this year, once in NYC and once in New Jersey and it was amazing. Tops on my bucket list is to go to Japan and see them, Baby Metal, Wagakki Band, SCANDAL and Nemophila on their home turf. And there is something magical how they melded together as musicians and as friends, and how their talents complement each other perfectly. And they aren't kids either, I believe the only ones under the age of 30 are Saiki and Misa.
If you haven't done so, invest in a ticket for the Eggman Concert, short ticket valid 'til 31st Dec, long 'til 31 Jan. You will have to join the fan club and will also be able to get a ticket for their January Live Concert Stream from The Tokyo Garden Theatre. The Eggman Concert is outstanding, video, audio and mix are superb, the overall performance is brilliant and Saiki is absolutely on ❤🔥❤🔥
Hell yes. The Eggman show has a great sound.
Watch them play live song DON'T YOU TELL ME, bass and guitar battle....
It's nice that you called them ladies. Too many reactors fans and others are still calling them "Girls". When they are all around 30. A little younger or a little older than that. Again keep up the good work !
Thanks Chuck!
@@Cheezyxyz You are quite welcome my friend !
Saiki will be officially 30 next month.
These are the first 2 songs I ever heard by them except I heard Play, live, first and then Choose Me, live. Hooked right then and ever since.
@Mr_Cheezyxyz Thank you, however I'm not on Telegram and I don't text, I'm old like that, so please give my gift to another younger person. Your great reactions are enough of a gift for me. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and wishing you and yours a Happy New Year.
Hi Geoffb,
That was a bot commenting. I removed and marked it as spam. I'm happy that you enjoy my reactions, and I hope you have a great holiday season!
@@Cheezyxyz If I'd looked closer I'd have seen the different name but didn't.
I'll just point out that these two songs are from the same show and that this show, at Line Cube Shibuya on Feb 14, 2020, is still available on blu-ray from their webstore. A bit spendy and the shipping will make you go "what the...", but absolutely worth every penny.
Best live band today no doubt
Go pigeon 🐦 go!! 🤓
I don't know if you have already done it, but you have to react to the official live video for Don't You Tell Me, it has the best tradeoffs of all of their songs. Kanami and Misa go at it like gangbusters. On so many of their songs, Kanami really does a lot of Southern rock style licks, like Gary Rossington of Lynyrd Skynyrd. If you can't find it in the resource channels, react to another reactor who dida video of it. It's worth it. For some dopey reason it has been taken off by CZcams.
YT has a thing for removing great music..
What you might like to do is to watch film clips from the different performances during their 2022 US tour. There's a lot of fancams, but there are also a lot of rather professional videos done by CZcams reactors who were at multiple concerts across the country. I saw several of them at the show in NYC, Dicodec, The Gaijin Guys Ryan Mear and several others. I think you will enjoy hearing these songs live in small venues.
You will come across with many more different types of Band-Maid songs, goes slower, even mellower, poppier, jazzier, more prog, more metal, crazier...you pick a different Band-Maid song everyday that fits your mood.
the breath control from 1:12 to 1:20 is fucking nutty.
I've watched this several dozen times, and first time I noticed Misa's quick check at 10:33 of your vid' to catch the trade off, then she does it again a little later.
What a wonderful The maids world❕
MIKU's low voice harmony is nice.👍
If you haven't checked them out yet. Daydreaming and Bubble would be a perfect two for. For even more different sounding songs from them. They seem to continuously mesh different genres together. Many times in one song. You might as well throw Alone in there as well. Keep up the good work and stay safe !
Cheezy mate! Greetings on another cold, crispy sunny day under a white Mount Fuji!
Interestingly enough these tapes are already 4 years old and they have perfected their shows even more!
Now, there is a big difference between live concerts held in Japan and the ones held during overseas tours.
The Japanese live concerts are longer with 22~24 songs, although they seem to vary recently and include less "magic times with the audience" interludes. On the other hand, live concerts in Japan often feature longer songs with longer solos like in Play, and especially "Don't You Tell me" (a must reaction with Turn Me On and Take Me Higher!). An exception is No God which featured an added long instrumental introduction during their recent US tour gigs.
Superb reaction as usual! Do not forget Daydreaming live official video!
Best regards,
Robert-Gilles
Thanks for the info, Robert-Gilles! It seems the concerts in Japan are very extravagant 🤘🤘 I will plan to put those 3 in the same video and include Daydreaming with another 😎🧀
@@Cheezyxyz Cheers, mate!
If you want to continue deeper into Japanese all-female bands, you should check out Gacharic Spin. Start with "MindSet" and then continue to "I Wish I" and "Tamashii". You won't be disappointed.
Their best two songs as far as songwriting in my opinion. Moto means more. But it's stronger. Even more! Moto Moto!
Play is amazing- and there are other versions on YT that are maybe even better :)
youll notice the end of play is the start of domination live. miku rushes back to her side. thinks she has time to sit down then jumps back up to be ready for domination hehehe
Awesome!
𝕊𝔸𝕐❗said the pigeon.
thanks brother, good combo :)
🔥🦊🔥
Perfection
俺は60歳過ぎだが、ちゅうがく、高校生くらいまでは洋楽にハマってた。それからブラック系にハマって自分でも音楽をやり始めた。でも、ここ10年くらいは日本女子のバンドにハマってるよw。日本女子可愛いよな。売れても調子に乗らないしね。
Miku going from 1st tenor to alto to falsetto...brilliant.
Turn Me On live and Don't You Tell Me live please.
@Mr_Cheezyxyz Dude, I'm old, I don't know what Telegram is.
Me either. These bots are annoying lol. I blocked and reported as spam!
Sing!
Hy They have lot of good old stuff as well.The Choose Me MV much better because of the mix of Kanami lead guitar work 😉 Some olde which probably you will enjoy 😉 : Secret My lips MV Secret Maiko lips MV, Puzzle live/not on the YT sadly/Yolo MV, Don't you tell me live/with a battle between Misa & Kanami/Matchless gum, Decided for myself, Unfair game,Non fiction days MV, Warning MV, After life MV...lot of more.Some instrumental: Giovanni, Without holding back...same album songs: Chemical reaction, Still seek revenge/with brutal bass& drums...Well the Band Maid universe same big as the Marvel 😉
Next pair - try something kinda old and some kinda new. Alone and Warning (music videos not live)
I'll check it out. Thanks for sharing!
Great react. Absolutely 2 of my favorites.
May I suggest:
1) Jazzy "Wonderland" (live) and power ballad "Daydreaming" (MV). A different side of Band Maid.
2) "About Us" (live) and "Endless Story." 2 of the most emotionally compelling Band Maid songs. Endless Story has a good MV, but I'd suggest a fan cam compilation from their 2022 tour czcams.com/video/ZkhMnchSZlE/video.html. Crowd singing, tears flowing. It's terrific.
3) "Unleash!!!!!" (MV) and "After Life" (MV). Both are fairly driving songs, and the videos are very creative.
Sup bro! React to this band "Hanabie-We Love Sweets and L.C.G" you won't disappoint.
I'm looking forward to it!
👍👍
TWO CHEEZY UPLOADS🤘🤘🤘🧀🧀🧀
@3:40 Saiki has a very low voice for a woman, you can really tell it when she just talks she sounds very authoritative. In a video on here on CZcams Saiki indicated that her vocal range is: C3-F♯5.
That is pretty low for a woman
You can't really go wrong with anything you select from their channel, but here are a few suggestions. Old and newer. Rinne - czcams.com/video/CQ9dbEVgZcA/video.html Warning - czcams.com/video/9yD3IqrLtPk/video.html Secret My Lips - czcams.com/video/1Vuca7V-5Ec/video.html
Kate.
Now I need to watch it!
Check out about us(live)and blooming (mv).
Cool reaction man, good to see you are getting into the Japanese bands. You seem to like heavy music so you might enjoy another Japanese all female band Hanabie. I like how you do 2 songs in your reactions so with that in mind you might like the song most people start with - Hanabie - We Love Sweets at: czcams.com/video/G18yyvPCiTM/video.html
And their latest song NEET Game at: czcams.com/video/PLfZ54FUG5w/video.html
Thanks R1! I look forward to hearing them 🤘
@@Cheezyxyz Cool, looking forward to your reaction.
I second Hanabie. Such a delightful group and their debut album is incredibly strong.
