The lead singer is now 22, and the others 20. In this video they were 16 and 14. When they started the band they were 12 and 11 years old. 1997 is the birth year of the lead singer, and where the name of the concert derived from.

I tried to write a witty reply about which of their songs would constitute the 'glitch in the matrix'. But after several minutes pondering, I simply can't make the analogy fit. Either none of the songs are a glitch, or they _all_ are. Maybe the entirity of Babymetal is a 'glitch' in the heavy metal matrix? Or simply in the whole-of-music matrix? Either way, using the word 'glitch' is wrong, as there is nothing remotely broken or 'buggy' about Babymetal. Maybe Babymetal is simply the 'fix in the matrix.'

you aint sen nothing yet. been a fan since 2013 and have to hear them every day. Su, the lead singer, is like no other lead singer, male or female.1997 was the year Su was born. Babymetal is coming up on their 10th anniversary of the band. this show was for Su's 16th birthday. Babymetal does so many differeny genre of metal and make it work. no two songs are alike. they have won so many awards for best live band. they are of a few bands that are better live than cd. when you go to their shows it is an experience. May i recommend Road of Resistance live form Japan 2015. you will see in this video Su, at 17, controls the crowd like very few. She is to us a Queen and the more you listen to her and the band you will understand why we think that. she can go from hard metal to rap to a ballad that will make grown men cry and they dont even know the words but she can put so much emotion thru her voice you feel it. Babymetal is fun metal and that is why at the beginning a lot of people hated them. but a lot of big name bands love Babymetal because it brings life back into metal that was becoming a little stagnat.

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤘 Great song choice. Even though the lyrics are about a fifteen year old girl attending her first heavy rock concert, lead singer Su-metal (Suzuka Nakamoto, or Su) was only fourteen when the studio version was recorded. It's not biographical, but it is a song she could relate to. At that age she was on stage, rather than attending concerts. : ) 'Headbangeeeeerrrrr!!!!!!!' is the song title. 'Legend 1997' was the 2013 concert that celebrated Su's 16th birthday. 1997 was her year of birth. Looks like you already have a bunch of great suggestions for more BABYMETAL songs. They're all different, and IMO, they're all great.

"With the legendary long black hair gorgeously disordered, this crazy blooming flower will soon disappear. Now the time has come. I no longer hesitate. I tightly hold my discount railway tickets. To the east, to the west, to the south, to the north. Today I rush to the very front of stage center. On the left side, on the right side, standing up still, leaning back, jumping toward the stage, leaning over the fence, rolling over the crowd, and then all deeply headbanging. This special night of my fifteen I'll never forget. All the crybabies, get out of here! It'll never come again and it goes by so fast. I etch in my heart this special night of my fifteen." Hi Olly! Good reaction! Thanks for checking out my favorite band BABYMETAL! They are a Japanese group that mixes J-pop vocals with metal music, a genre they call "Kawaii Metal" which means "Cute Metal". "Headbanger!" is a song about a girl going to her first metal concert on her 15th birthday and I think it's easily my favorite song on their first album, of which they have three. This year in October will mark their 10 year anniversary. This concert was called "Legend 1997" and it was Su-Metal's 16th birthday show as she was born in 1997. Yuimetal and Moametal were both 14 at this time. "Headbanger!" is a pretty special song because on shows played during any of the girl's birthdays Su will pass the mic off to the birthday girl to let her sing the lead and it's the only time that will happen. The group considers themselves more performing artists than recording artists and are one of the very few bands these days which are much better live! Here are my next recommendations: "Ijime, Dame, Zettai" - Live at Sonisphere 2014 UK - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iNVdksaTy8rWiXk.html - Title translates to "Bullying, No Good, Absolutely". This was the last song of their first big show in the west where they were bumped up to the main stage. The girls were scared the UK metal heads were going to throw bottles and boo them off. "Rondo of Nightmare" with Mischiefs of the Metal Gods Intro - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h96JdMZ63tGWc6M.html - The girls are backed by the Kami Band (God Band) made up of some of the best metal musicians in all of Japan, and in my opinion the world. This is a Su-Metal solo, but it really shows off the Kamis and Su's voice. "Road of Resistance" Live in Japan - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sLp1jLh3zLLalY0.html - This is how BABYMETAL ends an arena show.

In japanese the word BABYMETAL(ベビーメタル) and HEAVYMETAL(ヘビーメタル) look the same with a slight change in the first character so it is a bit of Japanese word play. 1997 is Su-Metal's birth year they also did a Legend of 1999 show for the other two girls both shows were performed through 2013. ages 16 to 14

Feb 2014, I was 57 years old and just about given up on music ... I was on the now-defunct Google Plus social media page and someone posted a link to a video they say everyone just had to watch ... turned out to be BABYMETAL (Gimme Chocolate .. from that same concert.) Blew my mind like it did yours and there was no turning back. All of a sudden I was a big fan .. I started looking at what else those crazy Japanese had to offer in terms of music and found a shit-ton of great Japanese bands (and eventually another shit-ton of Asian bands in general.) 6 years of exploring the music entertainment of Asia and it just keeps amazing me. You'll find BABYMETAL to be an amazing band ... then once you get a taste of them you'll need to check out the best hard rock band ever (better than the Beatles, Led Zepplin, The Who, Queen ... okay, maybe not better but most certainly on the same level) Band-Maid ... a 5 member all-female Japanese Hard Rock band, with a catalog of over 90 sings and every one of them would be #1 on any western hard rock radio of the 60's through to the 90's.

Great first reaction and welcome to the BABYMETAL fox hole. The song title is actually 'Headbanger' and is a coming of age song about a girl attending her first metal show on her 15th birthday (Su-metal was 14 when it was recorded, so it isn't autobiographical - and she was already performing on stage fronting a metal band of course). Legend 1997 was the title of the show as it celebrated the lead singer's 16th birthday (in December 2013). She is 22 now. The whole concept was fashioned around Su-metal, the lead singer ... metalheads gave them a lot of sh*t when they first appeared as they seem to think it was a manufactured money making project by suits in a boardroom and they auditioned for pretty girls to fill the roles, this was absolutely not what happened. For a start in 2010 when they were formed making money from metal in Japan just wouldn't have been a good idea. In this instance the talent came first (in the form of the girls - mainly Su-metal the lead singer), the idea was formed only as a result of that talent. It was a lot more organic than most metalheads thought. It was actually the idea of one man, their producer Kei Kobayashi, a life long metalhead who was working in the kids division of the Amuse talent agency. He saw Suzuka Nakamoto aged 10 or 11 singing with her former Idol trio and was struck by her unusually loud (for a Jpop singer) singing style and her stage presence and the thought formed in his mind that she could front a metal band. A year or so later he got the chance to work with her when she became a founding member of a middle school themed Idol group for girls aged 10 to 15. That group had sub-units, like after school clubs (cooking, science, tennis and so on) and he proposed a heavy music club to be led by Suzuka supported by her two small friends Yui and Moa. Amuse humoured him and allowed him to start the sub-unit, but provided no extra budget at all - they even had to borrow clothes to make their first stage costumes - and they performed in the Idol groups shows under the name BABYMETAL. You have already had the explanation about how it is a play on words with the sound and spelling of BABYMETAL and heavy metal being almost identical BABYMETAL ベビーメタル (or bebi-metaru) HEAVYMETAL ヘビーメタル (or hebi-metaru) the only difference are the two tiny dashes above the first character. The name also signifies the birth of a new genre of metal fusing metal instrumentation with Jpop style vocals and aesthetics (like choreographed dancing) which they call 'kawaii metal' (this has also already been explained in the comments). Their main aim was to attract a new audience - people who had only been exposed to Jpop and Idol music - to listening to metal and rock which were being drowned out and getting no air play in Japan at that time by using the Idol system against itself. So, although Su was just 12, Yui and Moa were 11 when they formed, their age was not the reason for the name. In 2013 Su was 15 and it was time for her to graduate from and leave the parent idol group. The unprecedented decision was taken that BABYMETAL should also separate from the Idol group to become a band in their own right. The Kami Band (some of Japan's very best session musicians) were recruited to support them in live shows - they played the encores in a few shows from late 2012 and from the start of 2014 took over for the entirety of all live performances. Before then the girls would sing to a backing track with staff member dressed in skeleton costumes (known as Babybones) miming the instruments. At the end of 2017 Yui was taken ill and missed Su's 20th birthday shows (Legend S). She was still absent when they started their 2018 tour and in Ocotber 2018, 12 months after her last appearance, she announced she would be leaving the band as her health had not yet recovered and she had some dreams of her own that she wanted to follow. Since the start of the 2019 tour Su and Moa have been supported by the 'Avengers' - 3 girls taking turns to fill the third spot as a dancer. You have some excellent suggestions for your next reaction(s) already - BABYMETAL will surprise you every time, no two songs are the same, they play virtually every metal genre and mix it with other musical styles and genres, often when you least expect it. Some songs are just metal, others may have more of a pop influence, every one of them is crafted and performed with real quality. They are unique, other bands have tried to follow their lead, none have managed to get close. BABYMETAL's official videos are good, their live performances are better. They pride themselves on their live performances and have won something like 30 international awards for things like best live act. Sorry for the wall of text, but you had questions and seemed interested to find out more about them.

If anyone, like you, can tell me: They have been treated well in their childhood, as far as anyone knows, right...? Asian bands with children and teenagers can be brutal.

@@nachgeben Yes - all the rumours we may hear in the west of the way kids in entertainment are treated in Korea in particular do not apply to all kids in entertainment in Asia and absolutely don't apply to these girls or any they have been associated or worked with. I think it was Yui's mother who told her if her school grades dropped she would be taken out of BABYMETAL as school should be her first priority. I think Amuse has a reputation of being quite nurturing and very protective of its artists as an agency rather than being all about making money as well (if they were all about making money and exploiting the talent BABYMETAL would have never existed - it was completely expected to come to nothing and no budget was provided before they did unexpectedly start to get popular). There are enough videos of them as kids clearly enjoying life and loving what they do as well. When Yui left the band in 2018 it seems from interviews that Su and Moa were asked if they wanted to continue or end BABYMETAL at that point as well. They are adults now and still enjoying what they do 10 years in ... and hopefully counting for many more to come.

But the best thing is that they just make you smile. Please check out more of their songs, there‘s a lot of variety in their catalogue. Some songs are pretty poppy, some are heavy as as hell. None of them are boring.

Here's a list of what's mostly considered to be the best live performances available on KZfaq and I would recommend...er, all of them, in any order. Don't ever worry about not understanding what they are doing or what Su is singing about as the Babymetal fan community (The One) will always give you thousands of views, likes and informative comments and further recommendations. The most accurate info will come from two people in particular, Grington 300 300 or Rick Wagner, and they usually supply little known tidbits of info too. Subscribed because we The One do love watching new fans (and judging by your reaction, you're a fan already!) fall down The Fox Hole (you'll understand the reference soon) into the Babymetal Universe. Stay safe out there. Here's the list, which is not a full one of their stuff but has all you'll need to get started.

They are a Kawaii metal, heavy metal, J-pop power metal, alternative metal. The definition of kawaii: Kawaii (かわいい, pronounced [kaɰaiꜜi]; "lovable", "cute", or "adorable") is the culture of cuteness in Japan. It can refer to items, humans and nonhumans that are charming, vulnerable, shy, and childlike. They have a tendency when you first listen to them to blow you away. This was put together by a company who hires the musicians and has someone write the songs then have the girls choreograph their moves. I prefer the organically made bands like Band Maid but I definitely won't criticize BabyMetal because they are great musicians and the lady's sound good and work their butt off and it's fun to listen and watch. Peace.

Band-Maid are good but still a very generic sounding hardrock band like there exists a gazillion. Many legendary bands weren't born "organically" and it doesn't really matter. You could argue that the three girls already knew eachother before forming BABYMETAL so it's not like they were picked randomly and are interchangeable. They are and were friends, more so maybe than all of the Band-Maid girls... Yes, Kobametal had the idea to use those 3 and their friendship to front a metal band, but it's not like it was allocated any budget at all or was decided by black suits in a management office. The fact they do not write their own music is not a letdown for me either. Because I'd rather watch talented artists do what they do best. BABYMETAL has the best songwriters in the Japan music industry, the best choreographers, the best dancers, the best musicians... All in all if BABYMETAL had been an "organically" made band as you suggest, it would most probably have been worse in every department. No, the girls do not play an instrument unlike Band-Maid, but can the Band-Maid girls do what the girls from BABYMETAL do ? Highly doubtful. Let people do what they do best. The girls in Band-Maid are very good with their instruments, let them shred, but none can match Su's commanding presence and unique-sounding voice. And I don't believe any of the B-M girls can match Moa or Yui in synchronized dancing while hyping the crowds up for 1 hour and a half. The more I type and think about it, the more I do not understand your "preference" for what you call "organically made bands". Did the B-M girls know eachother before forming their band ? Miku formed the band after inviting Kanami but she didn't know her personally either, right ? Koba and the three girls from BABYMETAL all knew eachother on the otherhand. So you could say BM's formation is as organic as B-M's formation... I guess you could say Miku did like Koba : she handpicked a girl, who handpicked another, who handpicked another... But the difference is Koba and the three girls already knew eachother. So maybe BM is actually more organic than B-M all things considered.

Actually the way Band Maid and Baby Metal came to be are very similar. With Baby Metal Moa and Yui were very close every before the group was formed and they knew Su. A guy had a vision and put them together. With Band Maid a girl had a vision and placed ads looking for band members. Most did not know each other before joining the group.

@@Zedem0n Great write up. Moa had a little band of friends before joining BabyMetal. There are pictures of her playing guitar with her own little "garage band". It is not a stretch to think that if Kobe had not formed the group that due to how close Su, Yui and Moa were before forming the group that they might have formed something themselves after graduation.

2020 is their 10th anniversary year as Babymetal. They 22 and 20 now. They have been performing professionally and on stage since they were 6 yo. They are the most popular and famous Japanese group/band in the world. Just so you don't have to do the math, Su was 16; Moa and Yui 14 at this concert. They have been opening act for Metallica, Lady Gaga, and the Red Hot Chili Peppers. they have won numerous Metal Music awards and have chart topping albums.

When all is said and done these girls along with the avengers will go down in history as some of the greatest IDOL LEGENDS alongside the first generation of girls from the IDOL GROUP AKB48.

The Song is an Hommage to the legendary japanese Metal Band X Japan, they influenced a whole Generation of Musicians and disbanded in 1997. In 1998 the very famous Guitar Player and Solo Artist hide died and Japan was in Shock, some Hardcore Fans even commited Suicide. I can highly recommend them, i have been hearing their Music since 2003. In 2008 the remaining Members reunited. They always mixed Metal Elements with a more Classical Touch, Strings, Piano etc. Many Power Ballads. They were Masters of Ballads.

Pretty good so far, who knows as they grow older ...

This is a good choice as an introductory song. A bit of shock with Babymetal. So, it is only a matter of time before some kind soul suggest Band-Maid (you will understand why Band-Maid once you see the), but not me as I have no idea which song to choose, to be honest. But Ad Infinitum released a new lyric video to the song "Live Before You Die". :-)

Yup, he's got "The Look." The look that everyone who first discovers Babymetal gets during their baptism by fire. BTW, Su was born in 1997, making her, in Babymetal lore, the Legend of 1997. They were 16, 14 and 14. Sadly, since this time...guitarist Mikio Fujioka died in, of all things, a fall from a platform while stargazing...and Yui Mizuno left the band, probably due to a chronic back injury. During her last year with the band, many reported seeing her onstage wearing a back brace. They were a brilliant concept; they achieved worldwide fame, yet were somehow star-crossed. Yui was never replaced as a member of Babymetal, but her place is now taken on a rotating basis from several other dancers. RIP - Mikio...and bye, bye and farewell, Yui-chan, The Tomato Princess.

Definitely the best initial Babymetal reaction I've seen in a long time! I see far too many reactions to 'Gimme Chocolate' for one thing, which does very well on the 'WFT' side, but doesn't really convey as much musically imo. (Although maybe I've just seen/heard it far to many times to 'feel it' much now.) So the choice of song was a plus, right from the start. But the thing is, you actually _react_. Going through 'Hmm' to 'Huh?' to 'WTF?' to 'Wow!' to simply amazed and as the song finishes back to 'WTF?' again. You may be surprised at how many 'reactions' to Babymetal seem completely unemotional, blank, unmoved and mostly mute. Definitely a sub from me, and I look forward to you reacting to some of their other stuff. I think you'll find you still have a long way to go before the dust settles. _If_ it ever settles. (It hasn't yet for me after nearly 6 years.)
