消えない魔法を描くんだ。この言葉深いんです。 50歳になるおっさんがほぼ毎日勇気付けられてます。

Just by listening to this song, even an amateur can see that they are not ordinary people.

I planned to list just one Band Maid song before my workout, I end up listening to them all

I cant speak Japanese but I sing along to this one everytime lol

This is primarily for the new fans. Pay attention to the second verse of almost EVERY song in their catalog. That is where the Easter eggs are hidden. You will get MISA (bass) going crazy runs and fills, Akane (drums) going percussion gymnastics and Kanami (lead guitar) doing all manner of intricate but hidden parts. All of their songs are onions you have to peel with your ears to really appreciate what is going on. Even when you don't they are amazingly solid songs but when you dissect them it's stunning how well constructed they are.

BAND-MAID never dissapoint somehow their instruments skill keep increasing in every single release

This drummer is just toying with us mere mortals.

This song is one of BAND-MAID's masterpieces. I wish they would put up subtitles for everyone to really share the beauty of this song.

My favorite. A song about chasing your dreams and not letting anyone stop you. So Bandmaid.

Saiki’s voice. It is the quintessential voice for a female rock singer. Power, clarity, precise, smooth, and heartfelt. Her voice transfers power and energy to the listeners. It is the gold standard for female rock singers.

My daughter plays this band everywhere we go 😀❤️💕

I love how Kanami brings back the opening riff in the background at the end of the song. Circle is complete.

Band Maid doesn't know what a bad song is.

Miku’s beautiful and uplifting lyrics, English translation: We put the blame in everything Through unattainable words. The things we can’t win against, It feels that they’re normal in our daily lives. I protect myself from the mass confusion of people. Being together with anyone, I pretended not to see anything, not to hear anything. Each time I lie, my chest tightens up. I open my eyes to seek, the source of the throbbing. I draw up a permanent magic spell, So that I can’t be hindered by anyone. My feelings are getting stronger As the dawn breaks in these wishful days. Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond The shining morning glow. It starts from hereon! The word we call “Fate”, We give it out in desperation. It feels like I’m now back to zero, patching out the contemporary tomorrows. My head keeps spinning, somehow I can’t sleep Leaving things unsolved, As I head into the morning, What will change? Dreams and hopes, after having set-backs, They keep piling up on one another. The story of increasing the value of my existence. I’m proud of my rebellious self. I draw up a permanent magic spell, So that I can’t be hindered by anyone. My feelings are getting stronger As the dawn breaks in these wishful days. Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond The shining morning glow. It starts from hereon! I draw up a permanent magic spell, I have conceived an unbreakable will. My eyes will never bewilder. I said to the expanding world before me; “Nice to meet you” My heart is pounding in excitement. It only happens once - that’s right, I’ll seize the day. The party is starting - time to prepare. I have no interest in something artistic. I don’t seek anything like eternity. All these boring give and takes, It’s all stupid - so just throw them away. Isn’t it better to collide head on? Fight on, right now. I draw up a permanent magic spell, So that I can’t be hindered by anyone. My feelings are getting stronger As the dawn breaks in these wishful days. Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond The shining morning glow. It starts from here on!

i think what i love about this band, is i'm always hearing the bass in their songs, hearing the bass makes me infinitely pleased and it adds to their grooves immensely

Kanami's guitar solo always brings a smile to my face

I don't know what it is about this song, but I find myself coming back to it all the time. There's just something about it that brings me in.

IF You ever feel lonely or depressed listen to Band Maid that Save your day.

MISA and Akane are just unbelievable here. 3:05 Then, with three notes MISA demonstrates how LESS can be so much MORE. Perfection.

All western rock band is blown away.

One musical wish from the genie. I want an adrenaline rush of great rock served with some of the mind-tingling structure of classical music, some complex jazz-type drums, beautiful harmonies and the catchiness of pop. Genie looks stumped, then conjures up all his strength and .... out of the smoke appears .... five Japanese women dressed as French Maids. Band-Maid, nothing like them.

Anyone else get emotional when they hear Kanami and Misa going in on that second verse? Lots of feelings pouring out of the instruments!

Saiki’s range in this makes me wanna hear her say “Ara, ara”

Man......this band!! The grooves of the bassist, the rolls and fills of the drummer, the solo of the guitarist that sounds like part of the song instead of just a solo, the vocalist and the backup vocals, the song structure just perfect and amazing. They could have made a few songs from the different melodic lines in this song. My 9th song listening to them and its just unreal how talented these girls are. Where have they been?? Its just unbelievable they played together only 8yrs (I'm told) and be this good. Ordered their album Unseen World but I feel should have include their some of their older albums...pretty pricy purchasing from Japan. Guess have to enjoy what they have in KZfaq. Band-Maid made me listen to rock again after all these years...just awesome.

I just bought four cds and a t-shirt, 61 yrs old, complete fan boy!

I listen to Band Maid religiously like a morning prayer 🙏🤘

They remind me so much of the 70s and 80s rock, hard rock, and heavy metal scene.

2020 was dry thanks to covid. No Maiko, no albums (reasonable), and barely any single. And then 2021 started off with a bang comprise of singles, MVs, and a no-brakes album. I am here for a breather and to remind myself that their old songs are still and will always be great. This one is still one of my favorites.

Akane is one of the best drummers on earth. Simply amazing!

Who says you can't love an all girl band? Not this guy! These ladies are so talented.

On headphones Mincho is ripping throughout in one ear while Akane drives.

Loudness brought me here after someone mentioned Band Maid on one of Loudness mv saying guitarists probably influenced by Akira Takasaki (one of the best guitarists every imho). Wish they had an English album by I’m still clicking on every Band Maid video that came up because I love how they jam gives me goosebumps. These ladies fucking rocks!🤟

This whole band has so much talent. It's a beautiful mix. Miku did an amazing job putting together such talent. Long live BandMaid

I just want to say whoever did the Lighting in this video is a Master of his craft

Goddamn Kanami s insane precision on the guitar She must be Top 10 in the World with that. Male and Female

2年前、この曲があたしとBAND-MAIDとの出会い 大好きな曲です

So Misa's bass work is amazing in this song. Wow...

That bass-line is beyond God tier!!

Most eat to live but there are those who live to eat...The BAND-MAID fan, a true musical connoisseur.

If its true You Only Live Once then im glad I found Band-Maid in this life.

This is just one of those songs where i can't help myself singing along at the top of my lungs everytime i hear it. basically everyday on my way to work in the car lmao

the drummer is godlike

やっぱこの曲にもどってきてしまう。そんな2024年。同士諸君いますかｗ

after guitar solo u expect the song to go back to repeat on the beat BUT nO it changes and that is GENIUS

After being a maidiac since 2015, I still to this day think this is their un-official masterpiece. I always get in a trance whenever this comes on

何気なく観たら『何この完成度の高いロック⁈』と彼女達に心を鷲掴みされました。

Been listening to Japanese Music for 20 years and its incredible to see a comment section with this much English in it. Happy to see them getting attention in the West.

No one and I mean no one currently can touch Band Maid- it's one thing to have 5 players that rock their individual components, but add in over 100 absolutely unique insanely well-written songs to the mix.... Well boy howdy

この曲を１０代の自分に送りたい。

The entire band is so highly skilled, but the drummer is melting my brain.....

BAND-MAID can keep releasing new music, but i think this is the masterpiece from them.

4年前にしてこのクオリティ。今でもそうですが、この時は衝撃だったでしょうね⁉︎ 凄いセンスの良さを感じます。彼女達の存在はもう奇跡です。

Kanami almost killed me with that solo

YOLO is an absolute masterpiece! Happy and sad at the same time! 🕊️❄️🍌🥷🎸

こんなドライブ感をだせる人たちってゆうのはいまの音楽業界みても希少でしょうね 時代に逆らうようなものでも自分たちだけの音で聴かせてるのはどこかかっこいいですね

Miku is a poet who writes lyrics to Band- Maid songs composed by the musical genius Kanami.

Someone tell their manager that I want my heart back. Their music took it place. They have to be around forever now.

This song is life... BAND-MAID is life!

can we please pay more attention to the drummer

This song is a masterpiece. It awakens so many emotions ...

Just discovered Band-Maid about a week ago and I'm amazed how good they are. I have goosebumps during the chorus...this song is so addictive and I don't understand one word!!

Holy F. That tapping run was INFUCKINGCREDIBLE!!!!!

After several years of listening 85-90% to J-Rock, and more Band-Maid than anything else, I have been listening to lots of great non-Japanese artists. Then I revisit a song like YOLO or Alone or The Non-Fiction Days and I'm still convinced this is one of the very best rock bands in the world.

Kanami is really a genius

I saw this girls in concert in Mexico City two times, they are really good. I have all their albums in iTunes, I always supporting to the girls

Words known to Mankind can not describe the Happiness this Song Brings me. Its the Summ of all parts the vocals the guitars the melody.

This Band Plays Music To The Beat Of Life... Love Them xxx

彼女達のMVみてきてけど、全部自分達で編曲してるのは凄いセンスが良い。

The vocals when the chorus comes in. Damn

My obsession with BM has phases. It started with Dice and Play. Then, Choose me and Don't tell me. Then I was and still fascinated by Puzzle. Then I had Rinne period. Then Don't tell me and Moratorium. Now, even not waiting a new album, I am in Daydreaming - a live version with Kaname piano and Yolo! I will be soon in the Blooming and Bubble phase. Then Wonderland... I even don't know when time for a new album will come. By that time they perhaps will have another album! It's really an Endless Story! Thank you Band Maid for the tear 2020!

There are several dinosaur era rock bands still touring but l will tell you, hands down, this is the very best hard rock band performing anywhere in the world. Period. Who can match Misa? Maybe John Paul Jones and he's still kind of around. Who drums this well today? Most of Akane closest competition has been gone a long time. Keith Moon. Neil Pert. Ginger Baker. She can hold her own with any of them. Lead guitar speaks for itself as do the two major vocalists. Now you have to add no bad songs. I found out when l thought a tune was perhaps not a stirring masterpiece l was only comparing it to other Band-Maid tunes and not against any competition. And if l took a tune like that and compared it to anything out on radio today it is so superior. The music is infectious and it makes me feel happy. And the happiness lingers even after the song concludes. Language l would not change. A sprinkling of English is fine. The band is so good and exciting it would not matter if the ladies sang in pig latin. They keep getting better over time and that is impressive. Sacramento loves Band-Maid.

beautiful women playing beautiful music on wonderful instruments is this heaven? It sure feels like it

Scrolling hard and I accidentally found Mincho's piano version of this song and led me here, hidden gem!

この曲は、BAND-MAIDの自作曲だけど、 スゲーいい曲だな。驚いたわ。

正直、バンドメイドってちょっとイロモン的な感じだと思ってたし、ギターもちょっと物足りないと思ってたけど、聴けば聴くほど、楽曲の 素晴らしさ、構成の良さ、ベース、ドラムのクオリティの高さ、ボーカルの力強さ、メイドっていうコンセプトも面白いし、みんな個性あってとにかく惹きつけられる。 ギターのソロは主張しすぎず、曲にあった素晴らしいソロだし、かなみちゃんの作曲力がこのバンドを支えてるんだと思う。 聴いてて全然飽きないどころかベースやドラムの素晴らしさを聞くたび発見できてとても奥深いバンドだと思う。

Ooooh...I think this is my favourite track so far...fresh AND classic sound. Only just discovered them in last 24 hours...losing my mind at how good they are: A Japanese precision machine...like my old Honda NSX

Definitely my favorite song from Band-Maid, the bass on this song is absolutely mind blowing. So much rock music lacks bass, either the mixing is terrible so you can’t hear it, or you can hear it but it’s boring. Band-Maid does not have these issues. 🤘🏻

I remember Hearing this in 2018 But forgot it's name now i found it that's really Maid my day

I have never heard of any group play like this (only in my head) music the way I like it to sound. I think this is the GREATEST BAND EVER presented to musics HISTORICAL VALUES. Male or Female they know their music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Been around since The Beatles first appeared. Band-Maid is fantastic. My favorite group these days.

Saiki's one of the best vocalists I have ever heard.

After all these years still one of my absolute favorites of them. Can listen to this every day. The chorus is pure genius and a joy to listen to. 🤘👍😃

It's hard to fathom that this gem, this awesomeness has been out 7 years before I found it, or rather it found me. WHY??? Well, no more. I have awaken. 🤘

3:34 - 3:40 "I'm not interested in artistic things" "I don't seek for eternity!" And you guys Band-Maid your music is true ART, and it will last forever in my mind til i'm not in this world anymore 🤘😍🤘

I am so impressed with this song, listen to how complex the second verse is with all the stuff Kanami is playing, but it still makes sense and does not distract from the vocals but makes it richer and more fascinating. She must have been very ambitious to show their label that they are totally fine with writing their own songs, and it really worked out I guess. Still one of their best songs until today and I really hope they keep playing it live.

These chick can really play the shit out of their instruments. I love the base line in this song

You know, if you had told me 5 years ago that one of my favorite songs would be a song called YOLO by a bunch of Japanese girls dressed like maids I would have said you were insane.

Kanami's riffage at 3:28 is so f awesome. I think it's double stops but w/e and that tone is pure bliss. This song is in the top 3 bandmaid songs!

How the fuck can you listen to this and not declare this is one of the greatest hard rock bands to ever grace this planet? Amazing band. Amazing talent. See you at the Echoplex in LA on September 30th.

They the real deal rock/metal band... So talented, gorgeous and... freaky AWESOME!!

Off the chart great sound. Just discovered this band days ago searching WW2 history. Ahh the wonders of youtube. I clicked and now hooked.

The drummer! What a musician.

Her voice man!! Her voice❤️❤️❤️

Something about the Melody line grabs the heart strings

One of many Band Maid's masterpieces. Wish it had an english subtitle option.

Drummer's break downs are fucking awesome!

They have sooo many masterpieces that this one barely gets to see the light of day. How many Band-Maid fans don’t even know this song (and many many others) exists?

my top 5 Band Maid songs: 1. YOLO 2. choose me 3. Afterlife 4. play 5. non-fiction days

As a bass player Misa is top notch. A powerhouse tone monster!

Impressive...these ladies keep getting better and better.
