It is confirmed, Su metal can handle any type of singing style perfectly.

really appreciate that instead of just using my culture as an aesthetic by wearing bindis or mehendi like most artists today, they took the effort to properly incorporate the music and dance style into their own.

This is not culture appropriation this is culture Appreciation

Japanese girl : Shanti Shanti Me as Indian : NANI?

Hindi metal song sang by extremely talented cute Japanese girls. *Mr. Worldwide*

"How much kaleidoscope effects do you want?" BABYMETAL: *_yEs_*

This is proof that Babymetal doesn't sweat, they glisten.

I'm so happy that such artists exist who made song on "Shanti" after understanding it and with its real meaning, doing actual semi classical choreography ! Thank you so much Babymetal !!!

It is really unbelievable how perfectly they nailed the in sen chord progression typically in Indian music after the bridge. Gets me every single time. 2:14 for the music nerds.

It's sad how people are only discovering these queens this year, their so underrated and iconic

Editors: so... How many kaleidoscope effects doy you want? Babymetal: *hAi*

This song is one of their best ones. It’s sad they lost a member a lot of good bands are losing members left and right but they left this beautiful music for us fans to hear daily. This is amazing

Can i be honest with y'all? The rhythm on this one is surpsisingly catchy.

Oh wowww, so this is basically a song about Indian Hinduism that has a genre of heavy metal & sang by cute Japanese girls in Japanese mix with Indian words like "shanti, atcha"?! wow I'm in!!

As an Indian, I can confirm that babymetal does Indian music better than most Indians

Su metal lung capacity is INCREDIBLE like she can dance and then go back to singing in seconds

Producer: How much kaleidoscope effect do you want? Babymetal: はい！

So how much effects do you want in this MV Babymetal: Yes Indian Soap operas: Smiles in the distance

I am an Indian and I admit that I didn't listen to much of Babymetal till now but after this I think I need to give this band more attention. Like seriously they blended Indian music and metal so beautifully.❤Most of the modern mainstream Indian music lacks this innovation and originality😒

A fusion of J-pop, Bollywood, and heavy metal music Diversity is nice

Su's voice has become so impressively versatile! Love the mix on this one, now that I can finally hear the official audio.

Indian metal - not just a culture grab, but authentic metal fusion. And the result? Simply, wonderfully, astounding! When Babymetal stated that they wanted to create a Metal Galaxy, they really meant it.

This is the best culture appreciation I've EVER seen

Shanti. ... When you chant, "Om shanti shanti shanti," it's an invocation of peace. In Buddhist and Hindu traditions you chant shanti three times to represent peace in body, speech, and mind.

Management: “Can you guys do something with Indian music? Babymetal: “Hold my naan.” 😁

I cant believe how awesomely diverse they are... ive never loved a band this much

I am an indian and I am fan of jpop and very happy to see that babymetal chose our culture

I just discovered BABYMETAL 3 hours ago. It is not 2:44am and I’ve listed to the same two songs idk how many times and this is the third. I can’t stop.

This Song is absolutly incredible. Can't stop listen to this masterpiece.

IM SO DISAPPOINTED IN MYSELF FOR JUST FINDING THIS BAND NOW HDHDHDHD THEYRE SO GOOD WHAT DHDHZHSHJS

I've never heard anything like this in my life. I can't stop listening

BABYMETAL: Shanti shanti Me, an Indian: Kya?

It’s not just the music but even the way they’re dancing is inspired by Indian dance style, their gestures... it’s amazing how they’re inculcating different cultures into metal music

This song is more Indian than our Indian Rock music. Hahahaha. 🤍

im gonna play this at my Indian wedding lol

Who else loves that BABYMETAL’s experimenting with different cultures’ music? me Edit: thank you so much for the likes! :)

"So what genre of music do you make?" BABYMETAL: "Yes"

Lyrics has hindi and Sanskrit words. Music has taken inspiration from Indian and Arabic style . Specially at 2:17 : Su-metal aces the Arabic vocal tone 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Avengers: we are the most ambitious crossover ever. BABYMETAL: hold onto our kawaii Japanese-Indian dancing heavy metal.

Dang. Su-metal's vocals feel like national treasure material.

When I saw them live and heard this for the first time, I knew it was gonna be one of my favorites in the new album. I’m so happy they finally released it!

I am almost flabbergasted with this band's ability to combine different genres.

As an Indian, I approve and love this fusion. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

Anyone else get the impression that as big as they are now, they are about to take it to a new level with Metal Galaxy? Cant believe the quality of the new songs, the choreography seems tighter, and Su is just a force of nature now.

Man, her vocal trills are so on point.

I don't know what I was doing and realized about their existence way too late. But it is never too late. They have created a style of their own that makes them unique. I like them already.

Indian here. Just want to say they did it thousand times better than Bollywood.

My name is Shanti. Babymetal singing a song with my name in it is the best thing to have happened

Finally, I can watch the official instead of the Glastonbury concert.

I just got their album, and I think this one is my favourite of all the songs. I thought it would be Pa Pa Ya or Oh! Majinai, but no, this one completely won me over. Absolutely amazing song from an absolutely amazing band. Glad I got to see you ladies live recently. Greetings from Germany.

I love the choreography,,the girls are killing it,,and the band is badass🤘

just don't burn out girls. be aware of your family and health.

Su is just the definition of amazing only is she singing the whole thing she’s also dancing

The fact that Babymetal took Bollywood music, made it Japanese, and then made it metal fascinates me

The louder volume you listen to this song, the better it sounds. One of the best cross-genre song in this decade. 2:15 is vocal awesomeness

now this is what you call cultural appreciation

When they played in Chicago, this song was the highlight of the concert. I nearly cried watching them because how beautiful their voices were (not to mention the choreography is perfect). Hearing the studio version of the song makes my ears happy. Easily my favorite Babymetal song now. ♥️

I found this by accident looking for SHANTI. They sound amazing, I'll have to listen to their other tracks~

The Indian style choreography in this video does not get nearly enough appreciation.

Even if I love Babymetal live shows I think it's time to get an actual MV with an original concept that reflects the intention of the song, we don't get one since Karate which was so good..

When I saw the name I was like OMG I know this word😂 all my Indian blood cells started dancing 🤣🇮🇳

Friends: whatcha doing? Me: listening to Japanese alternative metal with a sniff of Indie. You? Friends: ...

*Indian Classical Music🇮🇳 + Japanese pop🇯🇵 + Metal = 💥💥💥*

Su has become a woman now. She's so talented !

Anyone: "You can't create nothing new in metal in 2019" Babymetal: "Hold my beer"

Leaving this comment so when someone likes it, I can come listen to this again

discovered this after so many years !! this is real cultural appriciation !!! sending love from India

People here are appreciating Babymetal for incorporating Indian inspired music into their song, some other fandoms would've called this "cultural appropriation" and disrespectful. Im glad at least you people enjoy some good music and aren't some stuck up people.

It's truly impressive how many different styles of music Babymetal uses. I've never seen Japanese people using Indian music like that ever before. Edit: Hey man, if you're just gonna suggest another example of Japanese people using Indian music, others already have, and that doesn't change the fact that this was new to me when I posted this. Okay, see ya! \m/

Indian classical + metal = heaven, I COULDN’T be happier 😍😍😍

I love baby metal sm

first time listening: oh... this is a bit... different. second time listening: quite catchy tho.... third time listening: okay it's pretty good me now: SHANTI SHANTIIIIIIII

Haven't listened to these girls in forever and forgot how much I love their stuff. Definitely a new fave!! 🤩

while answering my schoolworks my brain: SHANTI SHANTI

this band is awesome live, go see them if you can. they're not just a studio band

今日、業務スーパーで買い物してたら有線で流れてきて、「なんだこのクオリティ高い曲！」と思って詳細知りたかったけど、歌詞が聞き取れなくて、声からしてアイドルだろうとは思ったから、“アイドル インドっぽい”っていう情報だけを頼りに頑張って探してやっと見つけた！ そしたらBABY METALで納得。

真夏の猛暑日に、扇風機だけの部屋で激辛カレーを食べて、軽く意識が飛びタージマハールが見えちゃった感じ。

The sitar part🔥

These girls are so talented that its actually insulting, how dare you be that fucking good.

もしかしたら彼女達は新しいメタルのジャンルを切り拓いているのではないでしょうか・・・？

本当に聴いてて気持ちいい声だよね、、、憧れる 高音も太くて綺麗だし、芯があるって言うか図太いのにすんごい儚いのに綺麗であああ伝わんない

This song is addicting ngl

Together, we are the One.

I'm indian and im babymetal fan from last 3 years . I love it . Shanti means peace in hindi language

2:17 God DAYUM, Sumetal's voice is phenomenal.

Su-metal's pipes at 2:16 give me the chills! This girl can seriously sing! 🥰

I Love How They Are Japanese And Showcase Huge Elements Of Traditional Japanese Culture While Also Doing Stuff Like This Indian Inspired Bollywood Bop, Then Metalizm Is Kinda Egyptian With Dubstep, Pa Pa Ya Has An American Hip Hop Feel But With A Thai Rapper Also Singing About His Culture, Elevator Girl Has Sort Of A UK Pop Punk Inspired Vibe, BxMxC Is Like Japanese Drill Rap Mixed With Riddim They Are Amazing At Everything They Do, I Cannot Wait To See More Of Momometal I Think She's Awesome😭💖💖💖 I Love Her Lil Part In Metali Soooo Much, She's Just So Pretty And I Love Her Energy Compared To Past Fill Ins❗❗❗Moametal Might Be My Fave Tho, She's So Badass And Funny Af In Interviews 😇💖

The last image in my head before I sleep tonight is multiple revolving dancing Moa

Drug dealer: want some drugs? Me: no I do babymetal

As an Indian, I really liked that accha accha achha at the end😂

Yup i got shanthi after listeing to Su metal and seeing moa metal dance 😌🥰🥰🥰🥰

メタルの定義なんてそもそもないし、曲自体カッコイイから全然あり。BABYMETALはこれまでも色々な壁をぶち破って来たんだし、挑戦してなんぼだね！これからも良い意味で僕らを裏切り続けてくれ。必死に追いかけていきます🤘🦊

The fusion of J-Pop, Metal and Indian music come together to create a perfect experience that is greater than the sum of its parts.

Listening to this in January 2022 🔥

Man this song is criminally underrated

I don't know why but I'm in love with the "Lalailalalailalalailala" moment. The voice + the little dance + Moa's smile :v

最近の曲でダントツ鳥肌立つ 教祖的で狂乱的で、ダンスしてる二人もこの振り付けが楽しそうだ

This song is a masterpiece

Omg this is beautiful. No stupid cash grabbing oversexualization, just pure talent, passion for music and elegance. A feast for the eyes and ears.
