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

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。

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

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.

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

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

This drummer is just toying with us mere mortals.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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!🤟

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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!

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

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.

All western rock band is blown away.

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.

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

Kanami is really a 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

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

That bass-line is beyond God tier!!

My daughter plays this band everywhere we go 😀❤️💕

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。

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

The vocals when the chorus comes in. Damn

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

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。

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

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。

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

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。

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

この曲を１０代の自分に送りたい。

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. 🤘

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?

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

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.

Why I didn't discover this band before. Damn

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

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

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.

The instrumental of this song blowed my mind...

One of their masterpiece songs that they haven't played live for a long time.

2020, they're the only thing keeping me from losing it

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.

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.

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

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

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

Something about the Melody line grabs the heart strings

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

Kanami almost killed me with that solo

I'm happy this comment section was not toxic, they praised these wonderful, gorgeous, talented girls without the need of bringing other artists down, thank you! 🥰

The whole solo and instrumentation around it was so insanely on fire. These girls are very important.

My God Kanami s Playing on this Song and Saiki Vocals are SOO GOOD. How is it possible that they are all so talented ?

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!!!!!

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

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

Drummer's break downs are fucking awesome!

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

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

Before, it was not possible for me to choose the best rock song. Now it is.

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

the drummer is godlike

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!

i wish i had friends i could listen to this with 🥲

Omg KANAMI drove me somewhere outta universe.she had won mah heart eva.

初めてこの曲のインスト聴いたとき、とんでもない構成だと気づいた。まるで未知の凶暴な生物を手なづけてマックスで疾走させているかのような反復性。これは天才的。

BAND-MAID inspired me to pick up and learn the guitar again after about 7 years on-and-off and not really learning anything. Because damn, those riffs are beautiful and dammit I wanna play them.

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. 🤘👍😃

Her voice man!! Her voice❤️❤️❤️
