You don't need to explain: It's Babymetal.

Babymetal- Megistune

Very few people can explain why they love Babymetal so much, but it is the whole combination of all the elements involved that make them special and unique - but as Su said "Don't think. Feel." 'Karate' is about fighting your own inner demons, getting up when you've been knocked down, you're crying and it all seems too hard, helping each other to fight on. The figures in white behind the masks were themselves (did you spot the reflections in the eyes at the end?) and they had been conjuring up the demons they had to fight. They defeated the first one, the second knocked them down, but they got up to fight on. They watched a lot of martial arts films to get ideas for the choreo - Moa catching the fly was a reference to The Karate Kid. You have so many more great songs and performances to discover from them and every one of them is different. I'd really like to see your reaction to 'Headbanger' live at Legend 1997 (Legend 1997 was the title of the show in December 2013 to celebrate the lead singer's 16th birthday - she was born in 1997).

"I love this band and I don't even know why"... There speaks a man with honesty and self-awareness. It doesn't even matter if you never find out, Mr R n R! I really enjoy watching you really enjoy Babymetal (and Band-Maid), you are an entertainer, sir!

I'm in it for about 2.5 years now, and I still can't explain it. Doesn't matter, I just enjoy.

Babymetal - Pa Pa Ya. It is GLORIOUS

Babymetal - Akatsuki DO IT!

"Im gonna pause this alot" Doesnt pause it cause the vibes are too real.

"Even if tears spill from our eyes, we will face it! Single mindedly, seiya soiya, we will fight on. With our fists more, with our hearts more, while keening all our skills. Still more, seiya soiya, we will fight on, even if our spirits are broken and we can no longer stand." Hey Mr. Rock N Roll! Good reaction! This is the song that really got me into the band. I'd known about them for about a year but dismissed them as a gimmick group, then I saw this music video. As soon as Su-Metal stepped forward and sang her first line I was hooked. Instant fan for life. This song is all about overcoming life's obstacles no matter what, defeating your inner demons, and working together. It's such a positive message and I absolutely love it. When most metal bands are singing about death, destruction, and suffering we have BABYMETAL to sing about perseverance, moving forward, and chocolate! Love your reactions, can't wait to see more!

This is storytelling at its most powerful! You don’t need to understand a single word of Japanese to get that this is all about overcoming yourself and your own personal demons that are holding you down. Watch the final scene again and you’ll see each girl reflected in the eye of her own phantom self. Just really beautiful to be a music video!💪🏻🤘🏻

Am I the only one who's hearing Su-Metal shouting "Everybody JUMP!" before the last chorus? 😂

You should really watch Akatsuki, Su's vocals are excellent and the guitar solo's are awesome.

"I like this band, i dont even know how to explain it" Yeah man i could empathize, they're my favorite band right now and I've listened to tons of metal bands and they took the number 1 spot. I dont even know how to explain it to people too, I struggle lol.

You must do the Babymetal: Headbanger (live) - Legend of 1997 version

Next: Rondo of Nightmare (with Mischief of God Intro). Do it. Then Akatsuki. Then Sis Anger.

10/10 for doing that Karate with them

Great reaction Mr. Rock and Roll! I think the best way to explain why Babymetal is infectious is that it mixes the energy of metal with positivity of pop. Karate is a great example of this. I have heard this song hundreds of times but every time I hear it performed live, when Su-metal has the crowd raise their hands during the bridge and then jump when the drop beats, it gives me goosebumps. There are many more great songs to react to but I'd recommend Headbanger if you want more like this, Onedari Daisakusen if you want to see just Moa-metal and Yui-metal perform as Black Babymetal, or Death if you want some really heavy Babymetal.

BABYMETAL AKATSUKI, NEXT!

Jeff Walker of Carcass described Babymetal perfectly... "I love what Babymetal is doing. Isn't the whole point of listening to music that it's enjoyable?"

Every song becomes an ear worm but you don't mind that it's stuck in your head. At least that's true for me. One thing that got me hopelessly hooked was the interaction of the crowd with the girls and vice versa. The crowd almost wants to entertain the girls as much as the girls want to entertain the crowd.

See PA PA YA!! last best music from BabyMetal

Babymetal, the cutest music you've headbanged too. That's the best explanation I got

More babymetal! Babymetal is life 🤘🏻

Never been a fan of BabyMetal, but the girls are good at what they do, and the band that backs them is awesome.

My favorite Babymetal songs: -Headbanger (Japanese roars super catchy) -catch me if you can (super heavy vibes) -in the name of (truly heavy) -babymetal death (legend 1997 live visually is crazy) Yeah! Hopefully you give those one a go

I love this band, I know why, but I can't even tell you just how much.

React to Headbanger please, my favorite music PD: Sorry for my bad english

I can't wait for you to watch Legend of 1997 Head Banger. Another totally insane performance with maniac crowds

It's the combination of the heavy music with the super melodic anime style choruses...infectious!

I was looking forward to your reaction to this! Thanks for the content it always puts a smile on my face. ☺️

The second verse of "sei-ya se-se-se-sei-ya" has a riff that dj0nts and dj1nts like a beast. A subtle little arrangement variation that I overlooked the first time.

I am going to see them live for the first time this month & I’m so excited.

New here at the channel, but I can tell why you like it although can't explain: it's just the love for good music, it doesn't matter where it comes from or from whom it comes. If it's good, we love it!

Theres no age limit in music.when a once in a lifetime experience that is BABYMETAL.only led zepplin tops when it comes to goosebumps and chills.hey music is for the soul bro

Yessss! Loving the babymetal, keep doing what you’re doing, you’re amaze 💖💖

Definitely need to give BABYMETAL - Rondo Of Nightmare (With Mischiefs of God Intro) Live Budokan Black Night 2014 a listen. Also the band Ladybaby is pretty interesting. LADYBABY "ニッポン饅頭 / Nippon manju "Music Clip is when ladybeard was the lead singer. Also this song is being used for the Tokyo Olympics apparently. LADYBABY “Hoshi Nona Isola -Starless_Sky-“ Music Clip is the band as they are now. I saw these guys life on a whim when in Tokyo. Definitely give both songs a listen and you will see the difference haha.

You love the band because you're high energy and the girls are high energy You love the band because you love metal music and this is some damn good metal music

BABYMETAL Iine! HEY! HEY! HEY! HEY!

This is the very first babymetal song i listened to back in October of 2017 and i have been addicted to them ever since.

I had never heard of them until I saw this same video about 10 months ago. I was immediately hooked, like before the video was half way thru. Saw them 3 times on the US tour, it was amazing.

My favorite song ever by them, this band is insane, also cute :D

I’ve watched a lot of reaction videos from other people but, you are by far my favorite now, you get so into it with every song.

And I'm going to see them here February, in London. Can't wait!

I truly admire your energy for all of your videos. Keep it up bruh! Rock on!

Your HEY got me smiling, thanks for that! 🤗

You sir have the best reaction videos to any rock/metal songs. \m/

They are magical.

babymetal - PA PA YA

Headbanger (Each of the 3 girls have led the song so maybe check out all three) and Akatsuki live are great. They are two of my very favorite songs from them.

In life more reactors need to get up out of their seats and truly react. This is the kind of energy the reaction community NEEDS

on my birthday. perfect :D

We all feel this dude "I love this band, but I don't even know why". Only the debut album is really crazy though. The other albums are less chaotic for commercial reasons I think.

I have so much admiration for everything they do and stand for... they're brilliant.

Great reaction!!! A massive fan hr in canada!!!! Babymetal rulezzzz!!!

Always more BabyMetal forever! :)

Another cool song from babymetal is headbanger what a tune wow

YES YES YES YES YES . dose not get better than BabyMetal when ever you need something good in your ears! peace x

You love it because it gives you good feels!

The Grudge!! LMFAO

Thank you for reacting to my FAVORITE band!!!! 🤘

Karate is one of the best produced and written songs I’ve heard, catchy beat, heavy but has that Babymetal flare to it, the video is pretty sweet as well, I would love to see and hear it live one day

Rondo of nightmare with gods of mischief intro is the most hard metal and technically difficult thing they have ever done live. Consider that one next. It’s a Su-metal solo.

this was the very first taste of japanese music i experienced in 2016-i had heard of this very different music from a band called babymetal that was a cross between kabuki and idol and metal genres.so i punched up the one with the most views and it was karate-instantly loved it-i was at work at the time. had youtube on autoplay and left my work station and another amazing song started playing-it turned out to be real existence by band maid and i ran back to the monitor to see what this awesomeness was. i was so blown away i just couldn't believe this amazing rock was coming from cute japanese girls dressed as maids- well i've never looked back and the bands just kept coming.destrose,gacharic spin,scandal,doll$boxx,ganglion,rivini,mary's blood ,aldious silent siren,etc.well we've never seen the likes of these incredibly talented and gorgeous girl groups in the usa.oh yeah and my favorite power metal band,lovebites. all other music just sounds poor in comparison now-i'm addicted but please let me stay that way-no intervention needed

Definitely need to listen to 'Rondo Of Nightmare' live with the Mischief of the gods Intro. It's a Su metal solo with the intro showcasing the rest of the band. You'll love it!

The first time I saw a Babymetal video, I didn't know how to feel. My brain was literally bouncing off the walls. Now? I love them!

I can’t find the words to describe how incredible this band is.

Very good reaction has always been difficult to explain the feeling when listening to baby metal how they manage to mix things and that even so because they are strange they work and are sticky and unique because without the innovation of the new metal there is nothing left but to enjoy what BABYMETAL offers us all

Oh! Very good reaction, Thanks for improving my blood flow This song will be completed by Sumetal solo song "AKATUKI"

Baby metal - ijime, dame, zettai live at sonisphere 2014 UK Lets go!

Babymetal - GJ! Live

I am waiting for you to appreciate her awesome singing. Like it's better than every shit that is running on radio. Live and without playback she just sounds like in this video. Even if you don't understand a word, you just have to applaud for those high notes. #goosebumps

That voice. Positive songs.

i always enjoy your reaction

Your reactions to this most refreshing band in over 20 years are a joy to behold.

Headbanger live!

Quite possibly the BEST reactor on KZfaq...

Greatest song I’ve heard

More baby metal yehaaaa

Dude she is jammin wide open on the diagram hitting them notes and still out performing bronze medalists....then another chorus.. Love this band so much. Unique, so much effort to make it work in a live setting and hell yeah id have their back if she started a fight, 0 questions!

Another amazing Japanese metal band is Ningen Isu they've been around since '87, I've seen them referred to the Black Sabbath of Japan quite a lot. Heartless Scat is probably their most popular song at the moment if you wanna check them out!

This is WTF #2 Video in the Babymetal catalog. The song is about overcoming you inner demons, at the end they "defeat" the ghosts/demons that is actually themselves. If you watch closely you will see them reflected in the eyes of the "demon". 2 suggestions Pa Pa Ya a newer release and my favorite early vid favorite Megitsune (official) BUT if comes with a test question, when does Su-Metal say "Maidens are not to be underestimated" it's obvious if you pay attention.

Something I notice about bands in Japan is that they usually have highly talented musicians, decent singers, good dancers (if dancing happens), and childish lyrics. This band is a successful attempt at applying the jpop formula to a different genre. Incredibly catchy chorus and attractive young people is the usual hook. I quite enjoy Babymetal but haven't had the chance to see them here in Tokyo.

This contrast of their voices and the music

Babymetal are an unexplainable phenomenon ! Therir fan base is everyone from 8 years old kids to 50 year old metal heads !

we also need to see Sabaton - seven Pillars of Wisdom

Check out the "Catch Me If You Can" full live compilation. It has a great sequence of solos by each of the band members. And also features another fantastically "jarring" entrance of vocals hehe. It's great :)

Doki doki morning, just to see if your reaction to the first few minutes matched mine (your gimme chocolate video was like a mirror of my reactions!)

Took him three videos but he finally did the handsign

Your babymetal videos are also my intro to the channel. You've gotta do headbanger, and megitsune. Also note the hand sign they use a lot... well megitsune might be the better vid to explain that one. :D

iine by Babymetal will have you all over 😂

This is the cutest 'Ousu' I've ever heard.

I been a babymeatl fan Since the beginning

I have heard this Song Hundreds of times and 7:00 gives me goosebumps every time

So I'm still in love with this song. It makes me both want to mosh and sing, I know all the lyrics and I don't speak any Japanese ..

They're pretty badass in a prospective. I guarantee this band has many wanting them to do video game ints and during battles. This is the perfect band especially the girls to do anime themes.

the only way i can explain why i like it is that I've always liked female vocalists and metal, so this is perfect!!!! its something you don't question, just enjoy definitely watch their Megitsune MV, my favorite babymetal song!!!

I have tried to work it out for a long time and just give up . All i know is they make you feel good and happy and thank the foxgod for that 🤘🦊🤘

They are easy to explain - live-action anime theme music. Especially this one.

This song made it already to Hollywood. It's in Altered Carbon :D

It is good to see a newly forming Babymetal fan. They are beyond description. They are just Babymetal. lol Love your videos.
