I feel like I am swimming against the tide here….I’m not impressed. Saiki’s most underwhelming vocal. Too generic, too simple, Americans will love it.

Always amazes you😄

Alert: Their new album is scheduled to drop on June 28. An official MV will be posting before that. It's a banger (I've seen it) and you should try to jump on it. After a lot of experimenting, they have gone back to their hard and heavy roots. Don't miss it!

🦊🦊🦊🔥

🤘🦊🤘🎸

The girls are 22 years old, the oldest is 25 years old. And they already have their own concert at Coachella. They create their own choreography (breaking templates and traditions), moreover, they choreograph for other groups. And on top of that, great voices

This song has, i think, generated the best , the most interesting comments of all B-M songs..those who love it, those who dont..so im gonna comment on the commentors - you guys rock!!! 🤘 you too Duncan, your comments are always 100% genuine and im sure i speak for most if not all of us who appreciate your vibe - you rock big time! You're a trus bestie of the B-M Community!!!❤

Great reaction. I love your comment "They're not trying to over stimulate, over complicate. They're not trying to do anything that isn't necessary for the song". Some other bands try to make it complicated because they want to show how good they are at writing complicated songs, but Band-Maid has never sounded like they're trying to do that. BM does it naturally, all the members are just trying to make the song better and perfect. That is what makes this band stands out from the others. Also, I have never seen the English lyrics, written by Japanese, literally makes Americans or British people cry. Thanks for sharing.

From my understanding, Miku wrote all the lyrics. You can definitely hear Incubus's influence on this and it is no surprise and they co-wrote it.

Duncan, thanks for the reaction and comments. I've held off watching any reaction videos of this song until I watched yours first. I always appreciate your genuinely sincere comments. BTW, these ladies dressed in white remind me of the elves in Lord of the Rings. 🤩🥰😇

Love a lot of those bands you listed. I grew up to the metal core and deathcore era. For me Trivium was one of the top bands i followed. Senior year they realeased their Shogun album and it blew my mind. To this day they are still making killer music.

They are masters at building bridges. That note held by Saiki well into the guitar solo... mmm, chef's kiss

Saiki: "The off-white color worn by the members signifies the expectation for the future progress. I hope everyone can imagine how it will be colored and enjoy it together." Also Saiki, "When I listen to "Bestie", I get the image of traveling in the wilderness. I wanted to feel the same scenery and immerse myself in the world of the song with them, which is also expressed in the music video." @saiki_bandmaid 🦍🍌Correcto, this is a new collab song with Mike Einziger (Incubus), Po! Expect a little 😈when they collab with The Warning. All should be included in their new full album due out this Summer, Po! PS, Kanami's solo is akin to her Daydreaming solo >😭, and Akane + Kanami's backing vocals 😇

this is what happens when 5 young ladies come together and decide their going to scratch and fight up every hill to get everything they can, now 10 yrs later they are "besties" and playing arenas, also, on a side note has anyone else heard that the U.S, dept of Immigration raised the price of foreign entertainers/artists visa apps 250% ??

Band Maid merchandise is on their website now for just a week. Shirts and posters etc.

👍👍👍

I admit I wasn't 100% on Bestie at first but now I crave it omg it's so good

That guitar tone is straight up Incubus.

They become Angels this time,

Played this for Beloved (my bestie for 32 years and counting), she took my hand said "that's us. how did they know?"

Band Maid can do hard hitting and complicated music and rock the World. They can do tear jerkers and make you forget you are supposed to be grown up. Or they can adapt and make the simplistic sound work. There is nothing too complicated in Mike Einzigers music and the lyrics by Miku are sweet and nice. Akane makes the drums drive the song and improves the finished article no end. It works in its simplicity and after listening to it many times then it becomes a piece of comfort music. It literally makes the World a better place.

Dunk, if this is what heaven looks and sounds like, we had better clean up our acts! LOL! This video is beautiful in so many ways and ethereal, no angelic. The Maids, all dressed in white look angelic, especially Kanami, wither her gossamer lace "wings". She also takes us soaring into the heavens with her solo. This is such a stunningly beautiful visage from the foreground and background screens. The heartfelt lyrics penned by Miku really expresses what the bandmembers "besties" feel about each other. I hope this song and the associated video gets some airplay on radio and television. Band-Maid deserves a lot more recognition by the public.

Great reaction as always.. I read and watched this video about 20 times. But, I am getting from Miku Kobato-Sans lyrics that she wrote the lyrics for Band-Maid. Because they have become family and best friends. I guess it's just my opinion. Band-Maid is so progressive in so many ways.. Thank you for your reaction. 👍👍🕊️🇺🇸🎹

Pt. 2 I keep comin back to this reaction ... so glad you took my advice and checked it out. Can I make another suggestion??? A slower yet another top tier performance (and Miku is on an Acoustic guitar) - "Page" live from Line Cube Shibuya. It's not on their UA-cam channel but I'm sure you'll know where to look. Love your work and share your admiration for this once in a lifetime band. Darren from Aust.

I said on Reddit. Band-maid is too rare to chain with our expectations. Love them.

I Knew that you were going to like this. Still pretty heavy but so melodic. You mentioned Fear Factory- my God, that brought back memories. I saw them supporting Ozzy Osbourne in 1982? Great reaction- thanks.

😁🥰🤘🤗🕊️

I will sound like a broken reccord since I said it on Ohrenje lyrics video, under their MV and another reactor, but between the lyrics by Miku and Saiki's voice, I can't help thinking that Miku wrote it thinking of Saiki and Saiki sing it thinking of Miku. I'm maybe way off, but in my head, that sound even more beautiful and powerful this way lol.

Thanx always, JD!!!🤘😁

band maid can trigger your emotional musical overdrive

Angel-Maid's! So beautiful in this video in white! Five besties!

[Bestie, co-written by Michael Einziger of Incubus.] MISA's playing and bass tone are setting new standards... and Akane's drumming is so in-the-pocket and distinguishable... and Kanami's solo is Daydreaming masterful! The recording and mix are as enjoyable as the song and beautiful MV! Miku’s English lyrics (I bet with Saiki and Mikey-chan's influence) are heartfelt. "I can't look into your eyes." Is Band-Maid a band of fashion-forward, trend-setting Besties? 💞 Thx, Mikey & Band-Maid!

So much repect for the Maids, these amazing women unflinchingly chart their own direction. What a fcken band Po 👍🍻

👍👍Awesomely awesome. One of my favorites. 🖖❤

Introducing Band Angel! Co-written by Mike Einziger from Incubus. Definitely why you got the nostalgia vibes!🫶🤘

Im a full year late lmaooo but wow this is straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥

what a storyteller! what an artist! emotions and skill and voice combined!

Whole Guernica album is a masterpiece, especially when thinking how the music is related to the bombing of Guernica in Spain, DAY 24th of April 1937, bombing/GUNFIRE, people being in CHURCH on the market day.... If you know this story you can feel how powerfull and emotional are these songs form young masters

I was like u after 10 seconds ....😂 This is the ultimate mix .... and i love it ... dont have to listen to metal the whole day with passcode .. these edm / ambience parts are awesome ... love them 🔥🔥

MISA's solo on Dice made me deep dive into them. Usually MISA looks serious, but she smiles a lot during the live. So beautiful. For barefoot on stage, I personally think that she cares for other members. Since she is the tallest member, she seems to fit her height with other members on stage. Just my thought, but so lovely. Recently Kanami drank MISA's beer before her crazy solo time. 😂 ua-cam.com/video/drKbFhzxZss/v-deo.htmlsi=Xi7gwksOKk0DCOwQ

Here is a Japanese interview of BAND MAID with a little more detail about how the band got together and how each of them feels about the MAID outfits. - ua-cam.com/video/YzWETTu-4iE/v-deo.html AKANE and MISA together in the band BECKY - ua-cam.com/video/rAMVLN_qchg/v-deo.html and another video here ua-cam.com/video/ReysbhkqpNU/v-deo.html Also in the video of THRILL, easier to see in this video, there is a Jimi Hendrix sticker on MISA's bass. MISA placed it there for her mother to see. MISA's fear of BAND MAID being an Idol band were squashed I'm sure by MIKU. Here is an interview where the interviewer said that BAND MAID would be more of an Idol band as there are 5 cute girls in the band. Japanese Interviewer: Since all five girls are cute, each of them has a different character. Those who want to see idols perform can also enjoy (each character individually). MIKU: NO. Not just for one of them, all of them together! Japanese Interviewer: Kuruppo, you are a pretty good tactician. Clever! You thought of it. You really formed the band you wanted, right? MIKU: It's a Miracle! SAIKI: That's right! This was the full interview - ua-cam.com/video/YzWETTu-4iE/v-deo.html&t=850s

Dang dude forgot to name drop me bro? Lmao

The coolest bassist in all the lands, and probably the sea.

In the early days of reactions to Band Maid, either I would use the thumbs up symbol to anyone who typed, Misa Misa Misa, or if no one had typed it, type Misa Misa Misa, myself. Misa's back story is interesting. i knew some of the information in this documentary but learned a good deal from it as well.

Your reaction was so similar to mine. Just so heartbreaking. Subscribed. Hope to see more of your genuine reactions.

Miku is a passionate gamer too.

MISA and A-chan were rescued from the no tarento, Becky's backup band. The original wearer of TinyHat-san, the 6th member of BAND-MAID...on live gigs, TinyHat-san makes way for another member, MetalPole-san.

Btw I can't wait to see your genuine reaction to October ends ' new song 🤘

MISA MISA MISA!!!!!
