Your welcome! Did you notice that Miku has a new guitar? it's a flying V too!

....iHad a 2 Hour Nap , woke up, went outside for a little cool air to wake up by, turn on the Gateway Tower and 32" TV 'Monitor'..... Click KZfaq 45 Mins after iT's Upload..... Followed that by seeing that some wannabe Stoler/Thief of Mine Lys Symbol had done a great Reaction to iT..... Ready for another All-Nighter yet again Today.... P.S. uCan 'See' Mine Symbol Minted on Coins that date to the 2nd and third Centuries B.C., from the "Levant Area"...... IT was The Symbol for Ihérusalem, at ThaT TIME in History.....

Congrats! This is the first time a reactor has beat me to a Band Maid release! Enjoyed the reaction.

@@snakewhisperer1 its not about who is first its about this amazing band..... THESE LADIES KEEP GETTING BETTER

@@OldSkuleNerd All Hail to BAND-MAID!!! dont forget the giggles.. XD

Hahahahha so fking TRUE

This song is J-QotSA Josh Homme would be proud to write this song.

@@hammerhiem75 Neat Name Drop.... **Iggy Pop @ le Grand Rex, Paris, 2016/05/15 : China Girl**

I said this would be the arena chant song. I did NOT see this coming :)

@@GaryHolloway-810 Neither did I. This was probably the song I overlooked the most from the preview, who knew it’d smack me silly on the very first listen. This is gonna be amazing to sing along in a packed stadium. It won’t take much to incite a riot with something like this 😅

@@Dtagcity I just read B-M's statement on their Tokyo site cancelling Budokan. It's quite moving. But they've hinted at more on line shows. Yay.

@@GaryHolloway-810 Damn that’s very unfortunate. I hope they get to play there the moment everything recovers. On the other hand it might be a good thing too as I feel they deserve a packed Budokan for their first arena. Also, yay for online shows too as I was feeling quite down for not being able to see their first Budokan.

@@GaryHolloway-810 Miku literally sings, "Masters and Princesses! Make sounds!" :D

As someone commented on another video "the stars aligned the day the met"

Agreed 100%

Ditto! Well said (P_O)🕊❣

Saiki's vocals strike me as most of all "natural." Nothing fake or posing about it. And always working to improve, like all of them. And that little yodel near the end... super touch.

Luckily, Miku was the first to invite Kanami. She's the only one who seem to accept wearing a maid costume easily.

No doubt

I was quick because I have amazing people like all of you to give me the HEADS UP!!!

Doh!

GO DOH GO!!!! teespring.com/oldskulenerd-doh-tee?tsmac=store&tsmic=oldskulestore&pid=2&cid=2122

@@airlinesecret6725 Doh Nut.....

Never a truer statement!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘🤘

Noice.

Yes. Written by others, but they definitely gave the tunes their own treatment. I like every stage of Band-Maid. I liked Honey from that period, a lot, but their recent stronger arrangement of it is rock gold.

I was on B-M's channel thinking, I wonder if they'll release a MV for "After Life" & ping "Manners" pops up :)

NICE

@@OldSkuleNerd shit, wait,...... Marko? Noooooooooooooooooooooo, aww ffs, 😭😭😭

No one's mentioned Saiki's wonderful high notes at the end, so I will. I'm good like,e that :)

@@GaryHolloway-810 - I especially liked that little yodel thing to get across the ranges. Perfect.

@@jacobusderottmann1000 Yep since Saiki had her vocal surgery she really is more comfortable utilising her range :)

@@GaryHolloway-810 - I agree. By the last concert before the surgery, she was in serious pain trying to sing. There is a pic from the time of that concert (in August 2017 if I remember correctly), I think offstage but still in their concert dresses, of Kanami drying Saiki's tears with a cloth and trying to comfort her. And real suffering on her face. She said later in interview she had known about the nodes on her vocal cords for awhile, but was afraid of the surgery, and that learning her vocal coach had had it encouraged her. (But she clearly couldn't put it off any longer either.) After, she was getting further coaching on using power without excessive strain, which I think she is mastering. And although I was concerned when she was back at it only a month or so after surgery, it was heartening to see what they all did to help lower the stress on her voice. It was exactly then I noticed she and Miku subtly swapping vocals periodically, so smoothly I wouldn't have realized it except for seeing it on the video. That was temporary. That was also when they started coming up with a few instrumentals, that everyone calls her pee break. Maybe, but it's more than that. And Miku got a couple of solo songs after that. And they included the acoustic sessions in a few concerts, so Saiki could show her emotional range and versatility more without pushing her vocal volume as much. And conversely, that is also when the others ramped up the heavy tunes more (along with her amp channel) so she wouldn't have to carry the overall intensity as much. All those things started, right... then. And when recovered, she had the knowledge and the freedom to use her voice without straining and has even more power now. Anyway, it really touched me to realize how they must have brainstormed how to support Saiki's vocal health through recovery and beyond. And, Band-Maid came out stronger for it.

@@jacobusderottmann1000 What a excellent comment Jacobus. Soz I can't make a longer reply at the mo, but you make some great points :)

yes NEMOPHILA is amazing

I agree. One of those rare bands whose every release I have liked. Like Band-Maid, they have a blast playing together, and their qualities are top notch.

I will check it out
