"Puzzle" is one of best song of BAND-MAID. You have good choice!

This song made me fall in love with BAND-MAID, and still in my top5 list. It was the first time I had seen someone who can add such a lot of details to a song without being overcomplicated.

"Puzzle" is definitely on my short list of all time favorite songs, not just Band-Maid's, but all songs from all bands!!! For me, this song has everything...emotional lyrics and vocals, great back ups and harmonies, driving bass, drums that change the feel of the song multiple times, and a lead guitar with non-stop riffing and awesome solo(s)...that solo is like...butter!!! Very melodic with an incredible tone from Kanami 🥰...perfect!!! This whole concert (2017 Shinkiba Studio Coast) is amazing! Another favorite is "Turn Me On" from 2018 Zepp Tokyo. Great reaction, thanks!!!👍👍🤘🤘🤘

Nice you watched it. Thank you... Like i said before, i think they can do music for 30+ years and this will always be my favorite song, it´s so versatile, so many changes, riffs and the lyrics are heartbreaking, there is also an acoustic version and it makes you tear up even as a grown man! I adore this song, it´s perfect in every single detail for me... Greetings from Germany, nice you enjoyed it! You´re welcome :)

While Puzzle live gives you full of energy with it's fast paced tempo, in contrast, Puzzle live acoustic projects a lot of emotions with it's simplistic, slowed down version, but yet powerful delivery. You need to see that version as well. Thanks for another great reaction.

you'll want to check out Moratorium for another "heavy" Band Maid masterpiece

KANAMI is a genius. Even a genius is always trying hard to try new songs. Chinese character of her name means a wave of songs. Literally, she wakes up big wave of music all over the world.

this is the saddest song twin tails has ever written. the message was fully expressed by the ice queen on their live acoustic version at the zepp.

Puzzle was the first time I really realized how good Saiki's voice truly is. She just lets it all out on this song. And Miku's backup vocals add so much. Also this is my favorite Kanami solo. I can hear Santana's influence ( a major influence in her playing). My favorite song.

I am pleased you enjoyed Puzzle, one of my favourites, who am I kidding all their songs are my favourites lol ! If you get a chance to check out the acoustic version (I sent you the link earlier) you won't believe how they make it so beautiful. You may wish to react or not but please listen to it even for your own enjoyment.

Kanami...Beautiful Riff Machine...

That was THE PERFORMANCE. All the girls giving their best 120%. Puzzle was the first live song of them I watched and I remember I cried. From then to now I cannot skip a day listening something of Band Maid, without any doubt the most emotionally shocking band over the world today. These girls know perfectly all the paths that lead right to the very center of people's souls. Love Band Maid Forever!

Thanks for demonstrating the unison bends. That's the kind of thing I wish more musician's doing reactions would do.

So nice to see these videos again from the 2017 Studio Coast DVD. (They were up on KZfaq for years until the record company decided to copyright block them en masse). IIRC, this show was recorded only a couple of months after Saiki underwent surgery on her vocal cords, but you'd never know it. Her voice is perfect! This whole song is perfect, TBH ==> Kanami soloing the whole time, Miku's backing vocals, Akane's syncopated rhythms and fills... and then Misa holding it all together with her bass. It doesn't get better than this.

This version of this song is perfect.

I wish they would would put this out officially on their channel. It's still in my top 5 songs!

This is one of my favorite BAND-MAID songs - it has Kanami with one long solo the entire song and lyrics that hit the heart along with a thumping hard rock sound that makes it a masterpiece!!

This Puzzle 2017 live will always have a special place in my heart. This is the only one that has managed to remain in my top 3 since I first discovered BM a few years back. Considering how frequently their tracks outdo each other, this is quite the record. Infact this is very high in my fav songs of all times list. A Masterpiece by Kanami. I just hope they eventually release it officially on their youtube channel.

I can't understand how this ABSOLUTE ROCK'N ROLL MASTERPIECE is not in their Official YT Channel

It’s a bit like a song with abnormal lover, and it depicts emotions very well. Want to stop but can’t or don’t want to.

Fun fact: This is a sad song playing with heavy music style, and yes, Kanami continuesly doing some nice guitar parts and solo almost the rest of this song. Nice reaction! Can't wait for your next BAND-MAID reaction. I recommended their songs from "World Domination" album: Honey, One and Only, Clang, and Anemone. There are nice guitar riff from that songs. Thanks.

I love this concert the previous song they played before this one Monatorium is fantastic and the transition to this one with the synth was awesome.

Hey :) I was just responding to you. Again, thank you so much. I have never been able to choose one BAND-MAID song as my favorite but PUZZLE was always right there. What I love about this song, above all else, is Saiki's non stop, I don't need to take a breath, vocals and when Miku swoops in with her backing vocals. Kanami's riffs, riffs and more riffs.

Comprehensive and insightful as always, never lose that enthusiasm. It surely is a POWERHOUSE of a song, many layered and great dual vocals. The live acoustic version (taken down now) is a totally different experience, a real heart-tugger. Keep up the good work!!

MISA!!!! MISA!!!! MISA!!!! 🥃🥃🥃🥃one of my top 5 favorite and the Live acoustic version is a heart tugging 💔 song where you can hear Kanami singing

I solved BAND-MAID's puzzle as to why you experience such powerful emotions when y....Hang on, that was Hellraisers puzzle box. That explains the chains & hooks. Tch

This is my all-time number 1 song by the Maids!!

Nice reaction. Please also "Turn me On". The lyrics of "puzzle". Miku is a word magician. Song: BAND-MAID Lyrics: Miku Kobato Composition: BAND-MAID With such a word of "Nice to meet you" There was a addictive sound of the puzzle piece But I'm sure you don't remember but that's fine with me In the gloomy darkness He gave me a place to shine in the light With an innocent smile, you can leave it as it is Even in love that doesn't come true It doesn't matter what number Hey, that's a lie I can't see i don't know It's just painful But I want to know Can't resist Just now Be eroded If you can't stop speaking out I knew you hugged me Two people who are nothing if they go out My only wish Like a candy that melts sweetly Will you disappear someday? Leaving only a sly look and scent but that's fine with me Night alone Where and what are you doing? Every time I think about it, I can't sleep I can't say selfish I'm waiting for you as a good boy I already see the answer Can't say can't say I really know Not allowed to grab I touched it gently Your fingertips are certainly I felt love Don't say I'm sorry I'll fascinate you and divert your eyes Deepen the unhealing wounds and get hooked I will fall to you again Lighter not used Glasses lined up New clothes Don't cry your shell I can't see the end I just want to dream Will you wake up? Don't cry let me believe I can't see i don't know It's just painful But I want to know Can't resist Just now Be eroded If you can't stop speaking out I knew you hugged me Two people who are nothing if they go out My only wish Crumbling puzzle Unsatisfied memory Close your eyes again I will fall to you again

band maid are the master of transition...kanami is my six string samurai in guitar.....

What an awesome song (say I after almost every Band-Maid song...) but damn Puzzle is good! And I like your use of the word "protagonism"

Puzzle is such a complete song and absolute rock classic. Thanks for the analysis! YOLO is another song it would be cool to hear you break down.

There’s no breaks for Kanami on this tune! I love how Akane improvises perfectly on the drums during the main solo! Now you should check out Puzzle acoustic version! This is high energy but the acoustic showcases the emotion of Saiki as she tells the story

Great reaction, I especially like how you demonstrate, and explain, what our ladies are doing while playing. It just causes me to appreciate them even more - and that a lot. Gracias

Puzzle is one of Band-Maid's best! Best is a broad statement for Band-Maid, so many great songs!

Best rock and roll band in the world today! Band Maid Forever! Po!🤘

You should definitely do second reactions to your favorites from the concert because you a great job analyzing! I think ppl don’t watch your video to hear you say “omg!! I don’t know what to expect!” It’s great to see you enjoy the music and explain some technical reasons why they sound great. Also you definitely called out some great moments from their concert!

The acoustic version of Puzzle is 💯🔥

Thank you for your reaction and detailed analysis to one of my favorite BM songs. It makes me appreciate it even more. Their musicianship is something to behold. It's still hard for me to believe that it was live. We are truly blessed to have discovered them. Thru my musician brother who struggled for many years and never achieved the success he sought, I know that there are countless talented musicians like him out there that never attain the fruits of their labor. There are just so many unknown factors in play that decide what makes certain artists click with listeners. Even BM were surprised when Thrill (the b side of the two songs they released) became so popular on YT. I think this is the reason that I respect and connect with BM so much. Their organic origin and discovering that sound that resonates with people as well as their devotion to honing their craft for their masters and princesses. I like many older madiacs too have not felt this way about a band in a very long time. Ciao!

I think this is the Zepp concert and generally considered a better mix than the Line Cube concert (most official live videos on KZfaq). Was awesome you got to see the live stream gig. Loving your videos on BAND-MAID and you are one of the only ones who actually has new feedback and comments to each song and not just wow for 10 minutes. haha It's understandable to go wow for 10 minutes but it's better with your explanations why its "wow" ;)

Wow! This is the first time I checked the Japanese lyrics and I was amazed by how good it is. Miku can write good poems! The lyrics are passionate but also elegant. The words were obviously carefully chosen or tailored such that the Japanese pronunciations fit the feeling and flow of the melody. This is very difficult for a high tempo rock song.

Great analysis. One of my favorite BM songs. So dynamic. I like your ability to pick up details and the guitar explanations. Kanami's ability to come up with so many different riffs combined with creativity of Akane and Misa keeps the songs so dynamic. Play (live), Real Existence (Live), Freedom (live), Cross (live), Choose Me (Live),Rinne, Dice, Bubble, Secret My Lips etc etc....so many still to choose from.

When BAND-MAID announce their new song, fans guess "What are they going to do this time?". And when the song starts, "What are they going to do in the second verse?"

I love your reactions. You really help me understand what they are doing. If you love this you have to do - Puzzle Acoustic live! Saiki and Kanami only

There are many great songs from this performance. Puzzle is one of my all time favorites. It’s subtly complex and powerful. Saiki puts in a great vocal performance in this one.

MISA MISA MISA! I second Soba Braddah757 one of my all time Favourite songs PERIOD

YEESSS! The Rock Masterpiece!

Listen to 'Puzzle' live then the accoustic version and you can see just how wonderful Band-Maid really are. Kanami wrote it, Miku wrote the lyrics and Saiki brings it alive in both versions. Kanami's accoustic guitar is a out of this world. Such a group of hugely talented musicians deserve universal success. Nobody is even close to them.

This was a reaction worthy of this amazing song. Bravo, sir.

Te recomiendo Moratorium, con partes mas pesadas pero siempre intercalado con el lado pop del grupo, creo que es del mismo concierto. Screaming, un de los temas que nombraste, creería que es uno de sus favoritos, porque lo tocan en todos los vivos. Esta de mas decir que es uno de mis favoritos también.

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

You should also try the acoustic version of this song, puzzle, its on the same site where you found this one

I see someone has sent to you a link to the acoustic version of Puzzle. Somehow it’s even more powerful. Please react.

"YOLO" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rbGKld2Uusq9YZs.html, "Daydreaming" kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iKmRmLic16_YqY0.html, "Puzzle" www.bilibili.com/video/av64175474 and a number of others, are world-class masterpieces. Too bad no one (relatively speaking) knows about them. Band-Maid numbers should be in the tens of millions, if not higher. It's a complete mystery to me how people have moved away from mind, gut, and soul gripping rock... to cheezy, glitz & glam pop entertainers, industrial boy groups, and "I'm too cool for you" commercial hip-hop / rap crap. Maybe groups like Band-Maid, The Warning, Jinjer and others will once again ignite people's musical sensibilities back to where it should be - honest, rock-based, kick-ass music written from the heart that moves you. And that includes everything from classical, R & B, funk, grunge and soul to jazz, fusion, prog and metal. Wow... did I just say all that?? Sorry, slip of the fingers. 🤘😎🤘

That's my xpression too

If anyone here has a link to the acoustic version, please provide it. That version is absolutely beautiful and is a vocal masterclass. If you get the link, please react!! Love to hear your thoughts.

Great :) You are defenetly in the 🐰 hole ;) You should react to the same concert"Don't you tell me.." Misa Kanami duell part it's just awesome ;) I am sure you'll enjoy...

Thanks T72!

check.. moratorium.. much heavier than puzzle i gues..

if you thought at the end that saiki sounded more epic at the end with a simpler guitar piece then thats why they did it. kanami is a brilliant composer i find. Its got exactly what it needs when it needs it :D

This is the ANGRY/Confused version of the "third railed" Lover's viewpoint in a Puzzling relationship scenario, as Kanami is "Mad" shredding the whole song. The simple acoustic version, in contrast, is one of "sadness" and "lament," even closure of this puzzling relation. It bring Saiki's "guttural soulfulness." Band Maid piercing the heart through their storytelling, Po! Both are masterpieces, Po!

Bravo! ENCORE!!

Miku and Kanami will be on Herman Li from dragonforces Twitch this Friday 2/26 @8 pst to shred and talk.

Kobato-Tono is approaching Taupin-John just MHO
