This is a message to the fans, a so called love letter, missing seeing the fans live at concerts due to Covid.

This song was written to encourage and thank the fans during these trying times. It is such a beautiful song and shows their jazz backgrounds.

MISA said in one of the interviews that her mother listened RHCP at car, when she was driving her to kindergarten:)

As a Band Maid fan you will feel the love from them like no other band...ever. How many bands write (sing) a love letter to their fans because they miss them? These young ladies can do anything musically they set their minds to.

Saikis high notes break those emotion dams. I love this song so much.

5 Maids, 1 big ❤. BAND-MAID miss not performing for us at live venues as much as we miss not being able to go & see them :)

This is a love letter to the fans, also interesting here: Right before this song SAIKI (lead vocals) spoke to the fans alone on the stage without the other maids, she has never done this before and is normally really distant and seems almost cold (she´s not, but that´s the picture you get from her on stage). That was really emotional, she talked about the dream of their first show in Budokan was cancelled and they were really down, especially because they wanted to see their masters and princesses at such an memorable venue. That they can feel the love from the fans and they are really glad they have them and that these times proof that it doesn´t matter where you are from, how distant someones seems if you share the same passion it makes the bond even stronger in those tough times. But she also said Budokan was never a goal or an ending of an task, it was always meant to be the next step for us (the fans and the maids). It´s not 1:1 and a shorter version, but i think that sums it up pretty well. Nice reaction, it´s unusally for Band-Maid to made such songs, but they wanted to give love back to their fans, so i still love this song! Greets from Germany

Just before the band performed the song Saiki gave an emotional talk about the struggles over the past year. This is the English translation of what she said which gives more meaning to the song they wrote and what it means to the band. Saiki: We were supposed to meet you today. For the first time in a year, we thought we could meet you all, those of you who could come to see us, but we can’t meet you in the end. I’m sorry. Even though it’s not my fault. We have been having days of turmoil for about a year. In the beginning, we were very surprised because we hadn’t experienced it before, and we had no experience of not being able to meet others in person. We were sad, but we found we shouldn’t be sad in this situation. When I saw you masters and princesses on social media, you were more depressed than us, and we thought that’s terrible. We Band-Maid have been thinking about how to cheer up all of you in the last one year. We truly wanted to meet you at Nippon Budokan, but it’s impossible because of COVID, so let’s wait for the day when we can meet. And in the last one year… or in the COVID pandemic, we have become more eager to cheer you up, and we Band-Maid realized again it’s important to give our songs to you. That’s why we wrote this song for Budokan. We made the album also in the pandemic, so it might have a little similar feel, but this song is planned for Nippon Budokan, and we really want to give it to you masters and princesses now. Budokan is not our goal but just a stepping stone. We will perform at bigger venues, and we promise we will bring you there and give you even better songs, so let’s keep it up a little more. This is our present for you masters and princesses. Please listen to it.

"I'm in love with this girl" *realizes what he said, looks sheepishly at Chel* "...uh...you know what I mean." Mat out here playing with fire 🤣

The message in the lyrics and the emotions it evokes in this horrible time makes your heart swell with pride and love for all of the girls 🤘, they are truly fantastic.

About us = About Band Maid and fans, I think.

Amazing ballad. Emotionally captivating and powerful. Thanks for another great reaction

3:13 , Chel's reaction to what mat said cracked me up in such an emotional song 😂😂

🐦 On Feb. 14th, 2020 concert *BAND-MAID* announced that they was going to play at *Budokan* on Feb 11th, 2021 playing at *Budokan* is like reaching the top of Mt. Everest and I had tickets to see them live for the first time but due to Covid the concert was canceled. In the live streaming concert they held *Saiki* address the fans and said how much *BAND-MAID* missed performing live with the *Masters and Princesses* and was followed up with this song that *BAND-MAID* made their fans. 🐦

I love BAND-MAID. BAND-MAID loves me. Give someone a hug and tell them that you care. Also, I like your new logo. ^ Denis.

力強くもしなやかで素晴らしいね

This is their love letter to their fans for being so supportive and loving over the past year. I watched this show live. Even if you aren't actually there, it's one of the best experiences. Also they have a DVD of this show for sale at bandmaidshop.com

I was curious to see the reaction for this one! This song was kind of a love letter to the fans across the world. Essentially it was BAND-MAID getting together and sharing their feelings about the current situation with the pandemic and how it's been tough to not have shows and see all of the masters and princesses around the world. If you read the lyrics it makes a lot of sense. Also it was supposed to be unveiled bat their huge show at the Budokan in Japan which was supposed to be a couple weeks ago but they cancelled it since covid cases were on the rise. Thanks again for another awesome reaction! You both seem like such fun/amazing people! Keep doing what you do!

It's a beautiful song. I agree somewhat about the intro and outro. It is even more pronounced in the studio version. I still like it, but I love this live version.

This song has great lyrics by Miku Kobato. Their message to fans who can't meet because of COVIT-19. Let's build a future In this emerald world. It’s alright! See, we are all here. No one is alone. Fly more... I did. Good old days, Ooh... ‘Thank you’ ★ This song is a remixed version of the net live on February 11th. Since English lyrics can be displayed, it can be converted into various languages. and There are English and Japanese lyrics in the explanation of the recent official video. Many Japanese fans shed tears when they heard this song and thank them. ★ On May 26th, they will release a remastered DVD / Blu-ray of online live 28 songs on February 11th. There are live performances of the latest 10 songs.　"About Us" is a pre-delivery.

"About Us", in the vein of other great mid-tempo Band-Maid songs like Daydreaming, Anemone, Endless Story, PAGE, Wonderland, Start Over, Mirage and Smile, is an amazing song and personal message to their fans - a direction I'm glad to see them add to their journey toward world domination. And we get to hear MISA unleash grace, power and drive that fits squarely within her favorite style of music she so enjoys playing. Stretch Band-Maid... Stretch with all your might. We're behind you 100! Their new DVD/BD/CD of this incredible concert has been ordered! Thanks, Mat & Chels, for bringing "About Us" to your viewers!

You know the story behind the song: it shows that they are not just a rock band ( the best) but taken with the acoustic versions with just Kanami and Saiki capable of a wide range of music - still their own compositions - at a very high level. How many other bands have expressed interest in their fans during this covid crisis?

Such an amazing, talented band. Love these girls

The Misa V Flea thing really hit home for a guy with a band maid tat on one sholder and a chilis tat on the other lol

The harmonies just kill me and MISA using her fingers for this song is awesome.

We all know what you mean about Misa - she seems even more at home on this one letting her jazz background have a little fun. Never flashy but ALWAYS stylish.

Here’s a super fan (t-shinji) translation of Saiki’s heartfelt monologue / speech before this song was performed that day: Saiki: We were supposed to meet you today. For the first time in a year, we thought we could meet you all, those of you who could come to see us, but we can’t meet you in the end. I’m sorry. Even though it’s not my fault. We have been having days of turmoil for about a year. In the beginning, we were very surprised because we hadn’t experienced it before, and we had no experience of not being able to meet others in person.

This is our present for you masters and princesses. Please listen to it.

Miku reminding us that she can sing. She has been more prominent lately. It probably means that the learning curve of learning how to play the guitar is starting to flatten out. She does have quite a good voice in her own right. SAIKI has been amazing and that seems to be the new normal. She really shone here though because it was live and perfect. Watching perfection live is a special experience. In years to come perhaps when BAND MAID is no longer a thing, people will look back at this performance as one of the highlights of the bands existence and I suspect probably be glad that there was no audience to compete for sound space. I wonder if live without an audience might become a thing of its own because this is very special. Love SAIKI ❤️💕❤️

I listened to this song and tears flowed until the end of the song. [Thai fan] ♥♥♥♥♥

Miku and Kanami (The 2 guitarists) will be on Herman Li from dragonforces twitch stream on Friday 2/26 at 7 pm pst.

Thank you for you honest reaction to the video.

Unseen World [Limited Edition] would be definitely something for you Mat. It has four instrumental tracks on DVD or Blu-Ray, and you can pick the Misa version and watch her play the entire time. 😁

this song and band is too awesome. dam

Wow, I didn't expect y'all to like this one so much; seems like you generally favor harder stuff. Mat, I totally get what you said about the intro and outro sounds; while I actually like the "farty" sound, the "chipmunk" vocal sound seems cliche, and somebody else pointed out that especially at the end they really take you out of the whole mood that's been building the entire song. But kudos for only taking that as one element, since it seems some people literally cannot hear the rest of the song because they're too busy going _"This sounds 'pop' and I HATE IT."_ That intro melody, though, is both a total ear-grabber and earworm. I just wish they'd come up with a more inventive sound for it. OTOH, I like to imagine some high school girls shopping at whatever store is trendy for them these days, the intro comes on the store's music system with that overly-familiar vocaloid sound, they're like "OMIGOD I LOVE THIS SONG" followed by, "Wait a second...who is this?" and Shazaming it...a month later they're pulling into the school parking lot wearing their new Band-Maid t-shirts while blasting "Rinne."

Hey very respectful considering it’s not your style. Agreed it has a lot of producer input in the mix. The additional doubled dubbed vocals do add impact to the song though. Shows the diversity in the material and from a songwriters point of view you have to admire that. Can be easy to write 1 genre material but most especially when combined requires real skill and talent. Not here though. Just the 1 pop tone. Still it’s a calming soothing song that has all of the trademarks of Miku written over it. Those backing vocals and combinating with Saiki. Oh so good. Yes Misa. She’s such a creative bassist. All over mid to high range with those many break fills as well. Nothing ordinary when it comes down to her bass playing.

Whew! That was a scary moment when Mat confessed his love for Misa! Glad I'm not alone in loving their soft stuff along with the hard stuff!

Oh the feels. 🥺 This one is for us. 🎀🖤

Thanks Mat and Chels!

Gotta be real with yall. We Needed This

Eurovision 2021 Finland Blind Channel - Dark Side Live.

About us refers to "us" as in the relationship between the band and their fans.

I can see that you like MISA you also got the same hairstyle as her

You guys should check out within destruction- downfall of humanity

Band-Maid is so cool! AND there's a new japanese, all female supergroup called NEMOPHILA - they formed in 2019 and here's a stunning live session: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/m9-SZbGltd3HqJc.html (the band is not blocking reaction videos as far as i know)

Thats' another charm about the ladies....You don't need to know Japanese to appreciate the music and sentiment....Looking at the subs takes your gaze away from the AWESOMENESS! on the screen....You can always look at them during another watch..but I always feel to get it..you have to just enjoy the videos first....then take a look a the lyrics if needed.

I have 2 'MUST SEE' for you guy's! First one: DEE SNIDER (ftd by rock meets classic) - WERE NOT GONNA TAKE IT (live at Wacken open air 2015) second one: PULP - COMMON PEOPLE (live ate Reading 2011) THANK ME LATER

To be faaaiiir. It's hard not to crush on Misa on this one. This is far and away her best line to date. This one grows on you the more you listen to it. But I see what you mean, you would almost expect to hear this on a Taylor Swift record. But that's why they only released it as a single, because it really wouldn't fit on Unseen World. Daydreaming is still my favorite of their softer songs.

Considering how sweet and kind MISA is and Flea’s reputation I don’t want MISA anywhere near Flea. LOL

Try DAYDREAMING and DROP OF A HAT among others for the "slower" songs. For the record even KISS had a slow song. This song blows BETH out of the water though.

I love this song, however I also agree with what you said about the into and outro sounding overly familiar... everything else is 10/10. That's why wonderland is still my no.1 band-maid slow song. But because the song was about us the band-maid family all over the world, the song probably needed to have the universally appealing feel that wonderland maybe lacks.

In my opinion, as a regular song during a regular time this song would be pretty and nice but not particularly outstanding. But in this time in this place we are in in the world, it is an amazing song!

Hey Mat and Chel. heads up for you guys Miku and Kanami will be appearing with Herman Li of Dragonforce on his Twitch channel Friday Feb 26 11pm est. it should be super interesting rare english show. dont miss it guys, get there and support Band-Maid!. love your reactions guys

Agreed. The electronic voice thing at the beginning and end are the only parts I didn’t like about this too.

We know what you mean ...............................,,,,,,,,,, Akane!!

Sokoninaru. That is all.

Saludos, I really like your reactions, please react to other very good songs from Band Maid, Moratorium live, Real Existence music Video, Puzzle live and acoustic, thanks

BAND-MAID also like RHCP.

10 out of 10 ⁉️💥🎉🎉🎉

misa❤️🤘awesome🔥 bandmade🎀awesome🙌

Hey you have to watch about us Gemmi gemmi song rock band from northeast India I'm sure you will like it

yet again, Misa stole the show...)))

It’s Ok. I’m pretty sure everyone loves MISA. Even the band members regularly gush about how wonderful a person she is.

Until they incorporate the millennial woop into they're music, It doesn't matter to me what kind of sound that's created. Band Maid can do no wrong, at least they haven't yet IMHO.

Most BM fans didn't care for the intro and outro chipmunk sounds. I agree with 9 out of 10. The bass is what separates thi from most pop rock songs

Another Band -Maid song ?really? there's a new Lovebites song and it's absolutely badass

The subject in the subtitles was the poignant part. You obvious failed to comprehend. You need to find out about the story behind this song. A thumbs down for both of you.
