The producer, KOBAMETAL, said in an interview that this song is an homage to so-called "city pop", a genre of Japanese pop music in late 1970's - early 1980's, and that was discovered by music lovers in Western world quite recently. It is interesting that they combined "city pop" with contemporary jazzy prog metal like Polyphia and Animals as Leaders.

This song quickly became one of my most favorites. The studio version is Polyphia playing, but live is definitely the Kami band. You can tell the difference side by side. It's totally left field for Babymetal but it's so soooo good.

This is probably the best song Su has recorded as an adult. I think this could be a mainstream and world wide hit.

💕 ⚡ / 🌅 That was the world premiere, and still the only time 'Brand New Day' has been performed live. The concert was LEGEND - METAL GALAXY, on January 25th, 2020 at Makuhari Messe, Japan I. I's great that they've moving forward and exploring what their "more adult kawaii" sound will be. One of the things I like the most about BABYMETAL, is that they are always pushing forward instead of just trying to recreate what they've already done.

Polyphia's Tim Henson said in an interview about this collab, that he was initially sent some kind of general template for the song. He (and Scott LePage) then tweak the whole guitar part from raw template to make it Polyphia-esque. I think they did a great job. The song sounds good, kinda felt groovy pop-prog, and yes I agree, very Polyphia :)

This is the perfect chill out song in my eyes. The performance was from Legend Metal Galaxy Day 1 in January. It's the only time so far they performed it live in a pro-shot concert (thanks COVID). I'd say all the tracks out of the Metal Galaxy laboratorium... eh sorry, I meant album, sound way more mature than on the first two albums. There are also no "chants" from Moa, almost all of her vocal parts on the album are harmonies. You should check out Shine and Arkadia (the KZfaq channel Zimmer official has probably the best compilations of these songs if you want to stay on KZfaq with it) to complete the Trilogy of Light you started by listening to Starlight ;)

OMG, first BABYMETAL song that I see subtitled in my mother language, Portuguese, nice react guys, pls try react to BABYMETAL YAVA with KAMI BAND solo!

This song feels like a metalhead's idealized memory of a 90s pop ballad to me, and I mean that in a 100% positive way. I don't think you've heard many tracks from Metal Galaxy yet, but her vocals are more mature across the board on that album, and in the live performances for that tour. You've already listened to Starlight, why not continue with the "trilogy of light" by listening to Shine next?

This colab with the guys from Polyphia turned out to be pretty great. It's one of the more pop oriented songs, but it, still very nice and went with the "Light Force" theme they were going for. On the second half of the record (and second day of the Legend Metal Galaxy shows), they went with the "Dark Force" metal oriented and heavier sound, and it was just glorious. Whenever you can, check out the rest of the trilogy of lights (you already did Starlight IIRC). Shine and Arkadia live are amazing.

This is one of my favorite Babymetal songs. Can't complain about the portuguese subtitles on the vid too, haha.

great reaction! "From Dusk Till Dawn" I Requested Will You Listen Next? I want to hear the impressions of professional musicians🙏

Yes, the western KAMI BAND played the music. And do agree that Su Metal's voice tone is getting mature. And of course, the PROOODUUUCTIOON VALUEE!!🔥🔥🔥 demn, it's such a huge responsibility for BABYMEYAL to maintain the consistency of amazing work for 10 years, and kudos for the production team🤘🦊

From this song, su prove it she can became pop queen, she is more than just idol, she is my metal queen😍

Probably my first or second favorite on this album; I listened to it over and over again. Those guitars sound amazing and I think SU METAL's voice is suited perfectly for this kind of genre. Loved everything about it. Thanks for the reaction!

Beautiful song and beautiful show! Fun fact: you guys released this video at the same time bandmaid released a new song lol

Next Babymetal - Night Night Burn..

The song is not that heavy, yet it‘s one of my favourites on the album. I like the pronounced rhythmic patterns, and Su‘s voice is very clear and beautiful. I‘ll certainly look into Polyphia at some point.

🦊👍 大好きな曲です。 ありがとう。

One of the songs off the new album that made me go from "huh?" to blasting it every morning on my way to work. -Love the instrumentals, made me check out Polyphia (also big up to the Kami band for playing it so well) -Even though it may not be about love, I feel like this is their first journey into a love type song. Maybe a love song for music? -the visuals of that live performance, wow If you want another different kind of feel from Babymetal check out Kagerou (with the Western Kami solo intro). I wanna say it sounds sexy? Probably get flack for that one, but yeah that song sounds sexy to me lol . Or maybe sassy is a better word.

Something to consider is that this is a much newer live recording than a lot of the other ones you often see. Su's voice has matured a ton since those 2014-2016 shows and of course the songs on the newest album are also more "mature" generally

Got to hand it to Babymetal, their not afraid to try any genre.

Great reaction!! This was my Morning tune goin to work for like two months 🤔 hahaha 😅🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻

Babymetal is what music out of boundaries look like. I started to appreciate A LOT of different kinds of music since Babymetal

This whole album is like this. The metal galaxy concert is amazing with all the different cultural infusions they put into the new songs. Probably why they won the best album of the year :)

Yess, such a crazy simple yet so complex solo guitar there. This song is more like Polyphia song powered with Su's vocal, i don't know much about this song history, but Tim said to Herman Li in one of DragonForce live streaming that he sent the guitar sample once and the BabyMetal team accepted it instantly. It showed how crazily skilled he is as a guitar player. Anyway, great reaction as always, hope you guys react to Syncopation and Akatsuki soon. Keep the good work!

100% Love this song! One of my fav from their last album. Please do Syncopation next!

Your reaction to one of my favourite songs in Metal Galaxy and subtitles in Brazilian Portuguese. It deserves 2 likes. BM fans' greetings from Brazil.

Nice reaction, thanks! I guess BABYMETAL have something for everyone :)

ナイスリアクション！ありがとう！Fox God🤘🦊🤘

I now have a new favorite Babymetal song

LOL! The lyrics in the video are in Portuguese! That's what I call a 2 for 1. One of my fav songs by BM, and the lyrics too?! Nice! 🤘🏻🦊🤘🏻

アルバムが発売されてからずっと私の目覚まし曲！

Excellent content fellas, when asked which song will surprise the fans, Moa said this one, because it surprised her...lol I suggest "From Dusk Til Dawn" it's a atmospheric masterpiece.

Badas. Great reaction and great music. Of course so adorable. Love so much Babymetal.

🍅🍅🍅 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 I love this song so much ! ! !

Nice again & thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 I witnessed this at Makuhari Day 1 on Jan. 25. That was stunning. Normally BABYMETAL fans want to see the girls' clear movement on stage and, of course, their cute facial expressions. But in this song we could see their silhouettes only .... and that was enough. Kami's paly was full of dignity, figures of Moa & Riho were elegant and Su's voice was exquisite. I felt like standing in front of a beautiful painting which absorbs my attention. I am proud of being one of audiences who had a chance to witness this world premiere of this song.

if they do this song for Kohaku TV program on new year's eve, it'll be nice.

This one and Night Night Burn are my favorites from Metal Galaxy, SU is a goddess! Glad you liked it!

This song is fire 🔥 😍 man this would have been epic to see live

Oh hell yeeeaaaahhh

Nice reaction. This is from the LEGEND - METAL GALAXY, it is one of the best concert because it has the best versions so far of: Road of Resistance, Ijime Dame Zettai, Gimme Chocolate!!, PA PA YA!!, Distortion, Headbanger and BxMxC. The whole concert is Epic, you should definitely watch it.

This has such phil Collins/genesis vibes. Love it

Hey guys, just wanted to say that the thought bubble pop-ups are actually a _brilliant_ idea for these kinds of reaction videos. Especially for Babymetal fans (but I imagine fans of other bands you react to as well), any time anyone makes an even-slightly mistaken statement about something, there's gonna be a bunch of people just itching to make a (usually polite, at least!) comment correcting it. But when you put up those thought bubbles, calling out your own fluffs immediately, it makes such viewers breathe a sigh of relief ("Ah, I don't have to comment to correct them! Sweet!") and actually have a lot more respect for you in the long run ("Hey, those guys took the time to check up on their facts, and even corrected them 'live' during the video. They're seriously dedicated, man!"), and maybe even start to consider you as 'one of us' ("They represented my fav band accurately; that's awesome! Shows respect. Hey, that means they respect my fav band! *One of us! One of us!"* ), which is a little ironic, because Babymetal refers to fans of Babymetal (together with everyone involved with Babymetal, including the girls themselves, inclusively) as "The One". In fact, they have a song called _The One_ which you should definitely react to. If you do, ideally you would react to it together with its companion song _Tales of the Destinies,_ which is actually probably the most awesomely amazing of songs (even though technically it's the prequel-half of the duo, compared to the 'more popular' song The One). And, ideally, you would react to the (only?) live performance of Tales of the Destinies, which has the most incredible (many previously thought 'impossible') choreography EVAR! (Which, once you hear the song, you'll understand why people thought making choreo for it would be impossible.) And, I think that performance was in their Tokyo Dome 2-night performance, which was freaking amazing all around. Anyway, *IF* you can track down a video of the two songs together from that live performance, that would be an awesome thing to react to. Even if, perhaps, you split the two parts of the reaction into two videos, if that works better for your channel. (Or maybe just go for the full double-reaction in a single video, I dunno...) Anyway, TL;DR: - Thought bubbles: genius! - You are probably already part of The One; yay! welcome! _One of us! One of us!_ - You 'should' (i.e. you will definitely be blown away if you do) react to the song _The One_ -- If you have to react to it individually, probably best is their official video version of it, which was pre- the second album, i.e. pre- Tales of the Destinies, but it's a good video of it, so probably good bet. -- Or, even better (way better), react to The One as it was meant to be experienced, as part of a longer composition, now two distinct songs, with the first song being the incredible _Tales of the Destinies_ --- And the best way to do that, if you can find the right source video(s), would be to react to the (only?) live performance of Tales, which I think was the Tokyo Dome 2 nights event. Followed by The One, of course. ----- But that might not be possible/feasible, so at least react to The One, so you can 'get' my whole reference to it. 😅 Cheers!

When I first got Metal Galaxy this song didn't knock me out first listen. But it quickly wormed it's way into my brain and it's probably my fave off the album. Kagerou is right on it's heels tho lol

nice reaction!THX. Of course the guitar is great in this song, but the drums are amazing！ this is kami band.

You guys were live and the mics worked? I was actually awake before you went live but fell back to sleep. Oops. Brand New Day on Dec 1st. Dig it!

I don't know if this was the intention, but I see this song being about dealing with being sad or depressed; you have good days ("sunny day") and bad ("rainy day") but just take it step by step and don't dwell on the past because each day is a brand new day. A lot of Metal Galaxy songs have the theme of loss and moving forward (considering the events of 2018, it makes sense).

This song has such a vaporwave aesthetic going on. I feel like cruising in a convertible next to the sea.

I think it was just Tim. He actually talks about what he did on Hermans Li's channel. Or tech..Dragon Force Channel. Hehe. Which he post all his stuff. Acutally a great channel. Funny as hell. Plus insane guitar players always on it. Also the guitar solo was done so good. Tim would be impressed. Sus vocals are great. She actually sings this better live in my opinion.

This was my favorite from the new album right out of the gate. Other songs have grown on me but this hit me the second I heard it.

You could react to the cover of the song zetsubou billy from the 'banda rasengan', a Brazilian band. They changed the instrumental part a little bit, putting it in their style, it was very good. hugs from Brazil.

Another great reaction! Love you guys! Raise your Kitsunes! ❤🦊🤘 Stay home, stay safe, stay metal!

Honestly, each time I hear this song, I'm more and more tempted to tear up. Just so uplifting and filled with hope! I made it my morning alarm :)

I absolutely LOVE this song. It's not a good Babymetal song, it is just a pure brilliant song whoever would perform it. Polyphia's addition lifts it to another level. Kami band is amazing, but there are few people who can play stuff like that better than Tim Henson and Scott LePage. You have to listen to the album version! If you by some weird reason haven't heard Polyphias GOAT you need to watch it. Tim Henson has said that it is written to flex a little bit. When Tim Henson flexes on guitar you know it's going to be great

This is one of my favs off Metal Galaxy.

Which is crazy, 'cuz I didn't even know there was a live version of this song. Cool! This is an awesome song (all BM songs are awesome, to be totally honest. 😅). I love it, it helps me through tough days, and gives me hope. Which reminds me, although they finally had to break up, you should check out the group Ladybaby, but *especially* their last few songs/videos. Just before they broke up, they started getting really, *really* good, close to Babymetal level. (Their early stuff with Ladybeard was cool just for the craziness of it, but musically it didn't catch me; after some band membership craziness, they finally settled on a four-girl line up that was freaking amazing. Damn I wish they didn't have to break up... 😥 But at least their last songs are amazing, and they are all talented, so they should all go on to do their own great things... Which gives me hope! Just like _Brand New Day_ does!)

This is easily one of babymetals best tracks, it’s so tight!!!! The vocals are absolutely sick and it almost bleeds into melodic dubstep style rhythm. And the use of silence combined with the grounding click just makes this whole song sound so much more huge when the chorus slams in. Loved y’alls reaction to this!

Девчонки пели. Я слушала. Музыка понравилась Убедилась, что вы, как всегда, прекрасно реагируете на девичьи группы. Всё классно! Картинка красивая, вы объективны. Благодарю!!!!

from dusk till dawn or maybe catch me if you can, if you can ahaha

The reason she sounds more mature is because she is. This is the first non studio modern song you reacted to. The audio is from a show this year. On Spotify they gave the live album from that show and I recommend Ijame Dame Zettai. If you compare that version to the sonic sphere it’s easy to see her growth

SU-METAL's singing voice comes out of the speakers. That's true, but it feels like it's pouring down from the sky.

Good god the light shows are so damn good

🤘😷👍

If you like a lot the production n choreo, react please trilogy song of babymetal life perform. Start from starlight, shine, arkadia

when i first heard this, it gave me Paramore vibes... love the whole metal galaxy album with all the different cultural influences

ILOVE BRAND NEW DAY PACKING SHIT FROM PHILIPPINES 🇵🇭❤️

DDAAMMN that might be fighting Karate as my favorite Babymetal song!! Man that’s GOOD!!

Polyphia's guitarists basically written the entire guitar tracks for this song. That's why for me it sounded more like Polyphia feat BabyMetal than the other way around. The demo track that was sent to them was just a dummy placeholder over Su's vocals over it.

By the way, I like this song more than BxMxC,

Haven't listened to much Babymetal. The few songs I checked out didn't do it for me. But this was a really good one. Think I have to check out more.

Polyphiaだ＼(^o^)／ G.O.A.T.とか大好き

Baby Metal never cease to amaze

Babymetal - Arkadia please

The video has had minor sound adjustments by the maker so it's not quiet the same as the album version.

Whata ya mean regret sayin that? No one can touch you after you did the Thrill cover to perfection.

Yes the song is amazing 😁 great reaction, thx boys 👍 this song remind me a bit of "from dusk til dawn", another great song by them & i think you'll love it too. Please consider to react to it 😊 Keep up the good work guys.

肩の力を抜いて自分らしく生きる心の歌のようで聴いていると正にヘブンだ👍

I appreciate 4K but I think upscaling leaves some artifacts. I am still very happy with the regular 1080p even though I have 4K display. P.S. (edit) Great reaction btw! I recommend reacting to "From Dusk Till Dawn", "Syncopation" or "Elevator Girl (Japanese ver.)" by Babymetal

Babymetal use 3d party composers. So they can have any song if they want to change something. Theoretically u can send them song and they can use it if they want

That screen SU-METAL

I'm afraid I have to hear 2 - 3 times until I like it ^^

This is a seriously complex song .. every time you hear it you get something new and every time you hear it it gets better .. best song on the album .. along with Shine.

Studio production is better, IMO. Clearer guitars, better effects, fuller sound. Plus it is sat in a great spot on the Japanese edition of the album that prevents it from sounding out of place. Best track on METAL GALAXY for me. Polyphia were given a rough guide track and the freedom to twiddle as much as they liked around it. Their restraint is quite tasteful. There are so many fresh sounds on METAL GALAXY.

🤘🦊🤘

🎵声にならないTiny voice 星のScreen で見たよあの夏のStage 聞かせてよOh,good music 風のメロディーでHumming sing for me I really like these lyrics and....You can enjoy her beautiful vocals.

Why haven't you checked out "From dusk till dawn" or "Syncopation" from babymetal yet

Babymetal - Akatsuki

This song was the one on Metal Galaxy that when I first heard made be like...wow, Su is definitely all grown up. The album as a whole highlights her vocal growth as really the key element to the entire album ..in some ways the the detriment because I feel like Moa and the Kamis take a bit too much of a back seat at times but then songs like this are great because of what Su can do now as a singer, so its definitely the type of song that couldn't have been done as well by them in the past.

have you guys done DUSK TIL DAWN yet ?

Hi. In my opinion, BABYMETAL has the potential to be the future of heavy music, going beyond sonically. "It's not Heavy Metal but BABYMETAL" . By the way, love your reaction! 👏👏 🦊👯🦊

Hello guys! I am here on behalf of Dimash Dears, and it happens so that i am myself a Dimash Dear. I translate other reactors reactions, so is it okay if i translate and dub your Dimash reactions? Links to your channel and video i will leave in the description!

I don't know how BM does it, i didn't even like this song too much at first, and after a few listens i'm starting to like it more and more :D

Damn the guitar solo

please react to loudness's “soldier of fortune.“

You can never go wrong with the live version of BM. Not just because they are just flat out an amazing live band, but the studio versions are pretty inconsistent when it comes to production since the kamis are not always recording and they use a decent amount of sampling and more than one writer, mixer, and producer. So yeah...live is the best. Plus some of the cool intros and transitions or extended sections of certain songs are only done live, so sometimes they are actually superior versions compared to the studio version because a lot of the studio songs are written over the course of many months or even years and the version that finally makes it to a live show is often the "ultimate form" so to speak, even over the studio version because the studio version may have been recorded/written a long time ago.

Mr. Beast in the house. hehe

one of my favorite song in BM and with polyphia the only album i love is inspire and the new albums nahh

react another rare babymetal songs just like bbab, just search babymetal - bbab

The lyrics are in portuguese, hahahahah, my native language
