Artists we already know, who are not in any band, or who are in a band, but want to start a side-project. How many times do we see these musicians start a new band and within a short time, sometimes less than a year, they disband! The video about bands that disbanded: ua-cam.com/video/hszIwapB1E4...

And THE WARNING fans were saying that ALE was the thunder goddess,, what a fckng stupid people those fans are..LOL.. There are so many very good female bassists in japan and ALE of the WARNING bass playing were just some childplay for those japanese women..😂😂😂😂
Kiyoshi - she is a genius. She deserves all the success in the world! 🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸🎸🔥🔥🔥
Mina has every tool a bass player should have. If she ever decides to join a band (Koiai?) then that band would be getting quite the potent weapon.
I love Kiyoshi. I've been playing Warwick basses for over 20 years (I currently have two high end Vampyres), so when I saw Kiyoshi playing a Warwick at her level of skill, I was instantly hooked. No one will ever confuse her with a great singer, but I love how intense and emotional she is on stage.
Kiyoshi is the bees knees. Wish more people were aware of her. Arigato for putting this out there.
Yeah. Spread some love for the incredibly phenomenal Kiyoshi 🤘. While i also have a Warwick bass she at least knows how to play that thing properly 😮 , no, she s not playing, she s rocking the fking fire out of it 💥. and of course she s fking hot 😍
Superb bassist - love her solo work - she is on my must see list.
Thanks Venus Gaijin! I've heard her name but never listened to her, I realize now that was a mistake.
Thanks for the back ground info on Kiyoshi 💜 I found discovered her a few months ago. I love her style of playing and her bass tone is so good. She is so dope! Like her T-Shirts says 🤘😎
One of the top bassists in my opinion! Her looking and her playing style is unique!
I'm a simple man... I watch a vid about Kiyoshi, instant like and subscribe. Kiyoshi-sama NEEDS to be world-wide mainstream known and placed in those top tier musicians. She is just a force of nature with all that she does behind stage.
Thanks very much for covering Kiyoshi, and anybody new to her music I recommend checking out Hero, Little King, Missile, Roots and Time Machine.
🫡😁🤘
Bonus points for including the Too Young To Die footage 😂
😂😂👏👏
Very talented but for me she doesn't stand out. Someone commented she sounded like F Chopper or vice versa.
“doesn’t stand out” Do you think she stands out well enough to be put in a top 10 for female Japanese bassists? Because I assume most people here would probably have more issue with her not being considered at all, while they see even less qualified bassists in various top 10 lists. That’s my impression of the situation anyway, but this is the first I’ve ever seen of her.
@@SomethingToDo360 I have seen her yt videos before. I said she is talented. But I find Mina from the video before more interesting in comparison. This is my opinion.
@@usagi3919 “Mina” Well I’m not arguing with that pick 😆. Your mentioning of Koga and now Mina, would both fall under my top 4 for female Japanese bassists, as: Mina, Fami, Juna Serita, and Koga.
This is why I don't compare or rank musicians.
Marty Friedman bassist is WAKAZAEMON on the 2 last US TOUR ( 2023-2024)
Impressive skills, and attractive as well. 🎸🤘
Kiyoshi is awesome, and yes, she is somewhat underrated, based on a quick scan of a few hundred entries (on X) of the Japanese Bass Magazine's GreatestBassist2025 voting last week. I didn't notice any votes for Kiyoshi. From that sample it looked like it would roughly be a tie between Geddy Lee and Fami.
But I still think she's just underrated on social media. But online presence is very important nowadays!😪
Very interesting. First I have heard of this Bassist. Will continue to follow her. 🎉❤
She has 6 albums in Spotify! Very impressive musician!
Love anything that may bring Kiyoshi to more people outside Japan. Thx VG!
@@PaulEngineer 🫡😁🤘
Thanks, Kiyoshi is awesome, I already loved her work and it was interesting to learn more about her!!!
😁🤘
Someone finally recognized Kiyoshi's amazing talent. Hard to understand why reaction videos never include Kiyoshi as a top Japanese bassist.
“why reaction videos never include Kiyoshi as a top Japanese bassist” If you mean why she isn’t included in a top 10 list, then probably for the following reasons: 1. People mainly promote their favorite musicians to reaction channels. 2. Their favorites musicians are usually based on their favorite bands. 3. They declare their favorite musicians as ‘top’ musicians. 4. Bands with the most fans are more likely to have members in a ‘top list’ that shouldn’t be there.
Outstanding bass player!🤗
Thought I heard a little F Chopper Koga vibe, then I thought maybe what I hear is a Kiyoshi vibe whwn I hear F Chopper Koga. She's fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
Interesting 🤔😁🤘
I was lucky to see Kiyoshi when she toured with Marty Friedman a few years ago. She is amazing.
@@EddiePerezIII1967 🤩🤩🤘
Woww, great job VG!! 🏆..learnt a lot here - I'll be recommending this vid to others on the other chats I'm on 4 sure! 😊👍

Thank you my friend😁🤘 I'm glad you like the video 🫡
Loved it! Arigato VG! 🤘

One word: Tricot. Best Japanese band ever.
Miyako has had a long and difficult career, and she wants to earn a living through music. To that end, she has been doing a number of music-related jobs. The same is true for the other members of Lovebites.
Mina is Duch a talented bassist... she's in the same league as virtuoso bassists like Juna Serita, Misaki Fujiwara, or F. Chopper Koga, and she's also a very young and cute girl. I'm glad Mina's social media projects are successful, but GIRLFRIEND was such a great band that I hope they get back together, including Nagisa if possible. ❤
Can see so many hard fans of other bands jealous in this comment section, chill bro 😂 M&M always on top🔥🔥
Her real name is Yamauchi Mina she's the younger sister of SILEN SIREN's Bassist Yamauchi Aina.
loved her rendition of Yoru Ni Kakeru
Mina is awesome. More suggestions - Sawa from Aldious and Ery, ex Raglaia. There’s also Hettsu… 😊
Girlfriend was one of my fav female bands! What a pity they disbanded. Mina could improve her musical and personal levels though..
Mina has also released an EP with her own songs and a few music videos in different styles like a short romantic film or an anime video.
Hal cal
Their dancing initially weirded out a lot of people in the west 👀 I was also 👀👀but that was the whole experience, too 💫 Took 0 time ⏱ for that to become enthusiasm for more, though ✅
That was fun 👏🏽
Upvote Kiyoshi!
Everyone was sad about Sae's departure, but today it's impossible to imagine Hanabie without Chika. It's the same feeling I had with wednesday campanella. It was sad to see KOM-I Leave, but Utaha won everyone's heart quickly❤
Kanade Sato best of the best 👍👍
Let's focus on the fact that Band-Maid are the best prog hard rock band on the planet, they love playing for their fans, and the Maidiacs love them right back. They are grown women and they don't need us to be Nanas.
