It has to be the first song I heard from the Queens. "Freezer" was sent to me from a friend and ever since listening to that extraordinary song, I fell in love with the Maids. Freezer didn't have a MV or any visual clues to the band, so it was purely on sound, and that was enough, I wanted to know more, hear more and see more. The more I delved, the deeper into the pigeon hole I found myself and the more I fell in love with them.
On the Band-Maid Prime webpage for subscribers, the Maid's released video footage of them practicing this same song. They were in casual clothes, and played the song casually, nonchalantly (including the solos) and very professionally. It's like each Maid were in their own space during the song, perfecting their notes. They then perform the song to a live audience with so much energy and showmanship you would think it was spontaneous. It isn't. Coaches of football teams say you practice a play so many times not necessarily to perform it perfectly, but that you can never mess it up. That's what these Maids do in their practices and dress rehearsals. They are the ultimate musical professionals. As far as favorite Band-Maid songs I have, there are simply too many to say that with. One of my favorite Band-Maid songs, especially during this holiday season, is "Wonderland". It is not a hard rock song by the group, but its almost jazzy feeling always makes me smile. It also highlights Saiki's vocal range.
💜💛❤💙💚 This video is from their 10th anniversary tour final at Yokohama Arena. HATE? was #27 out of a 33 song setlist. 3h 40min. Best consert I've ever been too.
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。 My wife and I witnessed this very performance at the venue on Nov.26, last year. We were in bliss going through very exciting 3-hour-40-minute-long show with 33-song setlist. (Happy fatigue thereafter 😄) Note : This song (including the hot Bass-Guitar duel) was played at 2023 Lollapalooza festival in Chicago, too.
Forbidden Tale,,is the latest release and is in my top 100 Band Maid songs,,,,When a band has so many bangers its not possible to pick just 1 song,great reaction.
With the huge back catalogue the Maids have, its very hard to choose, but if i had to pick one off the top of my head, i would say "Puzzle" live at Tokyo Garden 2023, good reaction, rock on 🤘
Picking a favorite Band-Maid song is like picking a favorite Maid. It can't be done, imo. I mean, what's better: Puzzle or Moratorium, Play or Freedom, a Kauai sunrise or a Kauai sunset? My favorite song is the one I'm currently listening to. My favorite Maid is the one I'm currently watching. Even though it's futile, it's fun, I guess, for trying. Thx, 🦁
Favourite? I might sound like a broken record, but it's hard to get past "Blooming" IMO. So good that it's hard to recreate live. So many tongue twisters for Saiki, timesignatures and a solo-vocal section that one reactor said was like being thrown of a cliff (solo) and caught by an angel. One of their powerballads "Daydreaming" is very good too...
This band truly is in a league of its own, if anyone had ever told me a few years ago that I'd be a complete fan boi for five Japanese musicians dressed as maids I'd have taken their car keys off them because they're obviously to drunk to drive 😁 What a fcken band Po 👍🍻
@JohnGioffredi-gi7zd Master Bryant 😁 thanks for the snappy social promotion John 👍🍻 Yes I happily admit I'm totally in awe of and completely entranced by these amazing women and their incredible musical creations 👍🍻
"Daydreaming" holds the number 1 spot for me. A rock ballad masterpiece and Kanami's favorite song to play. Watch it and you'll see why. Then it used to be "Blooming". Another masterpiece...Kanami's "homework" assignment to the other Maids. They were all to come up with part of this song. Kanami then worked her magic and stitched it all together. Genius at work.... But, "Blooming" has recently been moved to the 3rd spot. From their brand new album, "Epic Narratives", "The One" has just edged out "Blooming" for my #2 position. And "Blooming" was almost pushed back to #4 with "Forbidden Tale" making another big splash from the "Epic Narratives" album. It used to be 50+ fighting for #3, now it's 50+ fighting for #5.🤣🤣🤣 Like others have mentioned...there is no right or wrong answer for this one. PO!🕊 🤘😆🤘
Couldn't agree more. This is no doubt Kanami and Misa's showpiece but jeez, I'd like a dollar for every double kick Akane does. An as for "Bubble", hmmm, I'll second that sir.
In Japan, even before Western culture arrived during the samurai era, it was common for families with some level of affluence to have their daughters learn instruments like the koto (a traditional stringed instrument with a gentle, melodic tone) or the shamisen (a three-stringed lute often used in classical Japanese music and storytelling) as part of their refinement. With the introduction of Western culture, upper-class families began encouraging their children to learn the piano. In this way, women in Japan have had a close relationship with musical instruments for centuries. The recent success of Japanese women in the field of music is deeply rooted in this long historical tradition.
The correct answer for favourite song with Band-Maid is always the one you're listening to now. They have face rippers like Hate?, Puzzle, Moratorium, Why why why, Shambles, and Toi et Moi. And they have songs that will make you cry like Endless Story (live), About Us and Memorable, and they have beautiful songs like Daydreaming, Forbidden Tale, Wonderland and Cross. And they have straight up hard rockers like After Life, Dice, Real Existence, Glory, Bubble, Don't You Tell Me. And everything in between. There's 52 videos on their official YT channel and some less official ripped video content over on the Instrumental Maid YT channel and they are all a terrific musical experience. ☺
For many years I chop and change with my fav Band Maid song, but I always tend to have a soft spot for "Secret my Lips" .... it is such a progressive song that I never tire of.
Had these come on shuffle earlier. Awkward, Without Holding Back, Anemone, Flying High, Mirage, Arcadia Girl. I enjoyed so much I went back to listen to this order a few more times.
My favorite is the Play, the Official Live Version. Misa is a beast in this one and both the crowd and the band are having a blast. There are too many great Band Maid songs to pick an actual favorite, but Play Official Live is my favorite live video to watch.
Favourite band Maid song? Well... I have about 120 (maybe 130?) favourite Band Maid songs. Basically... most of the stuff they did since (and including) their album 'Just Bring It', plus a select few of their earlier songs. It's not only mindblowing how many good (and better) songs they have, but how different these songs are to each other! Since that's not very helpful to you... I'll list a few of them in no particular order :) Blooming (MV) Puzzle (live) (and, if you can find it, the acoustic version) Real Existence (live) From Now On (MV) Daydreaming (MV) Onset (live) Giovanni No God (live) Sayonakidori (live and then acoustic) Yolo (MV) Alone (MV) About us (live) Memorable (MV) Endless Story (live) I could go on (and on and on), but I'll stop here :) Also, you did the Manners MV already, BUT there's a 'two-in-one' live video of Manners *and* Black Hole on their channel from one of their covid online concerts without a crowd. You should react to that as well sometime (Manners has a new intro, and Black Hole... well, you'll see (and hear)) Greetings from Germany!
Along with all the other wonderful suggestions I would also add "Secret My Lips" or take us back to "Alone" (their first band written release) and "Non Fiction Days", which was not written by them but once a popular show closer.
@@TheLionsReaction Another special song to see if feeling mellow would be Anemone Acoustic Live at ZEPP TOKYO. It's another must see song that goes with Puzzle Acoustic from the same show.
@@curtisrrobles7885 There's never any justification needed for MISA & Mincho to have one of their intense conversations. Enjoy the rest of the holidays, Curtis.😁
"Blooming" or "Forbidden Tale" are tops for me. "Blooming" for a loooong time and "Forbidden Tale" very recently. Flip a coin or pick anything other song already mentioned in the comments. The Maids are THAT good. Thanks much, Lion! 🕊
For me it is Impossible to pick a single favorite Band-Maid song but if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to I’d probably pick Forbidden Tale. Or Warning. Or Real Existence. Or Bubble. Or Black Hole. Or Blooming. Or Alone. Or…well, the list of potential favorites is about 80 songs long but I’ll go ahead and stop now.😂
Dear friend, if you like Japanese metal, then you should definitely pay attention to the heavy metal goddesses from Japan, the Lovebites group.These are five incredibly talented ladies playing power, speed, thrash metal.Their live performances will take you Holy War or Brake the Wall will be a great introduction.
@TheLionsReaction A couple of notes about the list. - Moratorium and Puzzle are an incredible 1-2 punch, back to back songs on the Just Bring It album. - 2 are officially B-sides. Corallium is from the Sense single, but was later re-released on the Unleash!!!!! EP. Unfair Game is a deep cut, only appearing on the YOLO single. It's also rarely performed.
My favourite, most listened, most addicted...you GOTTA do the 'Dice' MV 👌 Such a great arrangment, energy...a Maid Rock masterpiece...fit for a new Master aka Maidiac 👍👊❤🤘🤘🤘
Great Lion... Favorite song? Well... no... impossible. Try this band's acoustic songs and get ready: Anemone, Smile, Puzzle, Catharsis, etc., etc., etc. The last song that really hit me, few days ago, is 'Honkai' live at Spin Off. These types of songs are considered a B song of theirs and are simply spectacular with an intro, out of this world. It's a devastating demolition (in a good way). Incredible is a very weak adjective. You, literally, don't know where are the highlights during the performance, or who really leads the song but I know that my surprise with 'Honkai' will last until the next song they release. Remember, ' Honkai ' / Spin Off... The intro is led by Akane (drums) with Misa (bass) until they weaken, ' faint ' the sound for a second or two and the global nonsense begins. Pay attention to the riff and the vocals of saiki and Miku
As for my *favorite Band Maid song* Very tough to answer, it forever changes LOL So here are a few of *my favorites* Puzzle From Now On Domination Forbidden Tale The One Alone. I know, I know not exactly what your looking for but it's the *BEST* I can do for you #TheLionsReaction 🙂
My Band Maid top 10 Thrill (MV) Domination (live) Freedom (live) Play (live) Turn me on (live) Yolo (live) Take me higher (live) Honkai (live) Dice (MV) Onset (live) Manners/Black hole (live) Puzzle (live) Without holding back (MV) Don’t you tell me (live) Shambles (MV) From now on (MV) Hate (live) Influencer (MV) Bestie (MV) Forbidden Tale Honorable Mention Show Them (w Warning) Giovanni (instr) Afterlife (instr) Puzzle (acoustic) anything Band Maiko
Glad you liked this Lion, as for favourite song, that’s really tough one and I’m not really sure so I’ll pick 2 that are opposites, but just as good…Daydreaming and From now on, both OMVs.
You have reacted to my favorite,Manners. Next would be: BAND-MAID One and Only Live at ZEPP TOKYO (4K+CC available) ua-cam.com/video/c1xqvqf6NOU/v-deo.html
Forgive me but I can't narrow it down to only one Band-Maid song as my favorite. I hope I don't get disqualified for posting more than one song. Here are some songs that are among my favorites... No God Rinne Clang Matchless Gum Why Why Why
@@TheLionsReaction and ' Turn me On ' ( live ) Spectacular and very easy to listen like Secret my lips. Secret of my lips has a 'plural' riff almost 'psicopatic' or ' obsessive ' that drills your brain but in a good way
Dang it, Mr. Lion, there are so many 'favorites' when it comes to BAND-MAID. I guess the best way for me to approach and answer is to try and think of what kind of song you'd like the most...and that will be just a wild guess. (lol) I'll go for technique with speed (220bpm) and band tightness = BLACK HOLE. All of them shine on this song live.
Favorite: Sayonakidori. You’ll do it eventually as a lot of people love it even though it might not win the most votes here. When you eventually do Sayonakidori remember to do the electric live version, which is on, I believe, the “Instrumental Maid” YT channel and then the acoustic version on Band Maids official channel. This song is one of the handful where Miku sings lead and Saiki takes a break. I love Saiki, but this song just really hits home for me!
Favourite is the last one i listened to. Not counting this vid. Give "From Now On" a go. Heck treat yourself to the MV then watch them pull it off live and improve it 10 fold.
My favorite is Puzzle, especially the Studio Coast concert version. The video and audio is exceptional. My next favorite is I Still Seek Revenge. There are 2 live versions, one from the Tokyo Garden Theater concert in 2023, and another from the 2024 Day of Maid concert. The studio version from the Unseen World cd is also very good.
"Best band I've seen in a long time", I agree and I'm not a young guy. Favorite Band-Maid song? All of them, or as is said, "The one you last listened to." That said I'll recommend the one I just listened to before your video, "Play" official live video.
Moratorium (live) is my absolute favourite if you can find a copy.... but also live versions of Play, Puzzle, Real Existance, and Onset (instrumental) are all available on BM's youtube channel
Great reaction problem is they all so finnn good but the track I love is DAYDREAMING it’s one of their earlier songs it’s not as loud and fast paced as hate but it shows how great they are in different styles of their music and keep on going down the pigeon hole you will love it 👍
Favorite Band-Maid songs - Onset (Live) , From Now On, Dice, Alone. Unleash, Blooming, Giovani (The white room instrumental from the blue ray, there is no MV of the vocal version)... Sorry for listing so many
Favorite BAND-MAID song. That's a hard one. They are all so good. I would have to say ....Blooming Video.... Bubble Video..... From Now On video .... As for a live video, it would have to be Hate?
“From Now On” will knock your socks off!
That sounds like an awesome title! i will add it to the list for sure!
Oh yes indeed!
It has to be the first song I heard from the Queens. "Freezer" was sent to me from a friend and ever since listening to that extraordinary song, I fell in love with the Maids. Freezer didn't have a MV or any visual clues to the band, so it was purely on sound, and that was enough, I wanted to know more, hear more and see more. The more I delved, the deeper into the pigeon hole I found myself and the more I fell in love with them.
Freezer? I will have to check that one out for sure
Freezer is probably my second fav behind Puzzle. If they had done an acoustic version as well, it might have been my top.

Spot on Bill 👍🍻
@@TheLionsReaction It's only a little over $7 a month - well worth the price. The content is excellent.
"Puzzle" but there is no wrong answer on a favorite song as they're all so darn good
You are correct, there are no wrong answers
I might agree, if it's combined with the acoustic version! But then again, 2 is more than 1.
Mission impossible.
They have at least 20 best songs.
When *BAND-MAID* is around the Lion does not sleep tonight! 🤘🦁🤘
🍺🙄
Correct
My favorite Band Maid song? All 130 Band Maid songs are my favorite, I'm not joking!
That may well be the best and most correct answer!
I agree 🤘
💜💛❤💙💚
This video is from their 10th anniversary tour final at Yokohama Arena. HATE? was #27 out of a 33 song setlist. 3h 40min. Best consert I've ever been too.
I may have to react to that one as well

Brother, That would have been so cool to see, live in the moment!
"Secret my lips" and the awesome cover from another talented band "Secret Maiko lips", by Band Maiko.
On it! this one has been suggested at least half a dozen times so it is defintetely popular
Oh thst would be great!
Favorite Band Maid song...Daydreaming
That one has most definetely made the list!
Forbidden Tale,,is the latest release and is in my top 100 Band Maid songs,,,,When a band has so many bangers its not possible to pick just 1 song,great reaction.
Forbidden tale is getting added next
With the huge back catalogue the Maids have, its very hard to choose, but if i had to pick one off the top of my head, i would say "Puzzle" live at Tokyo Garden 2023, good reaction, rock on 🤘
That one is debuting on this channel here in about an hour and a half!
THE best Hard Rock band of the 21st century. Or any century.
My fav Band Maid song today is Giovanni. Tomorrow will probably be another one.
I will have to check that one out as well!
Picking a favorite Band-Maid song is like picking a favorite Maid. It can't be done, imo. I mean, what's better: Puzzle or Moratorium, Play or Freedom, a Kauai sunrise or a Kauai sunset? My favorite song is the one I'm currently listening to. My favorite Maid is the one I'm currently watching. Even though it's futile, it's fun, I guess, for trying. Thx, 🦁
I agree, they are all 100 percent absolutely amazing from start to finish
Favourite? I might sound like a broken record, but it's hard to get past "Blooming" IMO.
So good that it's hard to recreate live. So many tongue twisters for Saiki, timesignatures and a solo-vocal section that one reactor said was like being thrown of a cliff (solo) and caught by an angel. One of their powerballads "Daydreaming" is very good too...
Blooming? hmm lets get it added. Stay tuned and subscribe!
The 2 live's that I've seen of it were brilliant - Line Cube Shibuya 2020 with drum intro and then this year in The Yokohama Spinoff show
This band truly is in a league of its own, if anyone had ever told me a few years ago that I'd be a complete fan boi for five Japanese musicians dressed as maids I'd have taken their car keys off them because they're obviously to drunk to drive 😁 What a fcken band Po 👍🍻

Its a good thing Daydreaming is on the list then!
Don't forget the drumming support by Akane for the bass-guitar duel. It made the already great duel even better❣❣❣
My fav song is "Bubble"😉
Couldn't agree more. This is no doubt Kanami and Misa's showpiece but jeez, I'd like a dollar for every double kick Akane does. An as for "Bubble", hmmm, I'll second that sir.

I love the sonds of that title, it is going on the list
I like your choices.
@@TheLionsReaction These would be my versions. Daydreaming OMV, Bubble OMV, Moratorium Live (at Zepp Tokyo).
The correct answer for favourite song with Band-Maid is always the one you're listening to now. They have face rippers like Hate?, Puzzle, Moratorium, Why why why, Shambles, and Toi et Moi. And they have songs that will make you cry like Endless Story (live), About Us and Memorable, and they have beautiful songs like Daydreaming, Forbidden Tale, Wonderland and Cross.

My favorite is a bit different I guess, it's not a popular but it's so bad ass "Moratorium" It's like Motörhead had a child with mother Japan.
@@schelin1447 "Moratorium" is an awesome song & my 2nd fave, otherwise i would've voted for it too :)
Super cool, i will do it for sure, thank you
It's the song I most want to experience live.
"Moratorium" definitely has a Motorhead vibe along with "Clang".
Had these come on shuffle earlier. Awkward, Without Holding Back, Anemone, Flying High, Mirage, Arcadia Girl. I enjoyed so much I went back to listen to this order a few more times.
That is one heck of a shuffle for sure
Oh, im sure others will agree "THE ONE" which has no video yet is so rich❤❤❤❤❤
Got it added, Thank you
My favorite is the Play, the Official Live Version. Misa is a beast in this one and both the crowd and the band are having a blast. There are too many great Band Maid songs to pick an actual favorite, but Play Official Live is my favorite live video to watch.
Play will be coming, it is on the list!
I have 150 favorite Band-Maid songs, but Blooming, Daydreaming and Without Holding Back are a good start
Sweet, you are correct my good sir
My favorite is "Why Why Why"
Nice I think I did that one the other day

Its cool to say they all are your favorite song, I dont mind
"Play" is my favorite, always will be. The Official Live version has a wonderful intro. Thanks for the reaction!

My current fave: TAMAYA!
This is the first time im hearing or seeing that one! But i bet its good!
Along with all the other wonderful suggestions I would also add "Secret My Lips" or take us back to "Alone" (their first band written release) and "Non Fiction Days", which was not written by them but once a popular show closer.

- Moratorium and Puzzle are an incredible 1-2 punch, back to back songs on the Just Bring It album.
- 2 are officially B-sides. Corallium is from the Sense single, but was later re-released on the Unleash!!!!! EP. Unfair Game is a deep cut, only appearing on the YOLO single. It's also rarely performed.

Great Lion... Favorite song? Well... no... impossible. Try this band's acoustic songs and get ready: Anemone, Smile, Puzzle, Catharsis, etc., etc., etc. The last song that really hit me, few days ago, is 'Honkai' live at Spin Off. These types of songs are considered a B song of theirs and are simply spectacular with an intro, out of this world. It's a devastating demolition (in a good way). Incredible is a very weak adjective.

Remember, ' Honkai ' / Spin Off... The intro is led by Akane (drums) with Misa (bass) until they weaken, ' faint ' the sound for a second or two and the global nonsense begins. Pay attention to the riff and the vocals of saiki and Miku
Puzzle has officially made the list, thanks so much!

No God
Rinne
Clang
Matchless Gum
Why Why Why
Puzzle, electric and acoustic.
Got these qued up for today and tomorrow so stay tuned, just for you bro!
Secret my lips
Nice! thats a good one
@TheLionsReaction that's an impossible question, ur favorite band maid song btw
@@TheLionsReaction and ' Turn me On ' ( live ) Spectacular and very easy to listen like Secret my lips. Secret of my lips has a 'plural' riff almost 'psicopatic' or ' obsessive ' that drills your brain but in a good way
It's a good one! I suggest make it a double reaction with Secret MAIKO Lips.
💜💛❤💙💚
It's a difficult one, because the Maidiacs' favorite song is the one they listened to last. So I guess HATE?. But you could do Puzzle OLV.
Cool, Ive seen a couple people say Puzzle, so of course I will have to check that one out!
@@TheLionsReaction psst, mine is actually Sayonakidori acoustic. Don't tell anyone.
Favorite BAND-MAID song Turn Me On , MISA !!! MISA !!! MISA !!! the Barefoot Bass Assassin .
Don't You Tell Me :)
That's a pretty easy question for you 😏 I will second "Don't you tell ME" Official Live of course 🍺😎
@barrycounts490 Cheers Barry. Mr Lion should do a double reaction to it cos the MV's one of the Maids best. MV first then live from Yokohama.😁
Dont you tell me, will have to end up on the list!
@@GaryHolloway-810 I agree
@@barrycounts490 Love the live versions!
DOMINATION (LIVE 02-14-20 ❤)
Got that one, Check it out here: ua-cam.com/video/52kd4tpTLwA/v-deo.html
Dang it, Mr. Lion, there are so many 'favorites' when it comes to BAND-MAID. I guess the best way for me to approach and answer is to try and think of what kind of song you'd like the most...and that will be just a wild guess. (lol)
I'll go for technique with speed (220bpm) and band tightness = BLACK HOLE. All of them shine on this song live.
🤘🤘🤘
Dice
They do rock, Thank you for the horns!
Favorite: Sayonakidori. You’ll do it eventually as a lot of people love it even though it might not win the most votes here. When you eventually do Sayonakidori remember to do the electric live version, which is on, I believe, the “Instrumental Maid” YT channel and then the acoustic version on Band Maids official channel. This song is one of the handful where Miku sings lead and Saiki takes a break. I love Saiki, but this song just really hits home for me!
Favourite is the last one i listened to. Not counting this vid. Give "From Now On" a go. Heck treat yourself to the MV then watch them pull it off live and improve it 10 fold.
Gonna be doing this one soon! thanks
Corallium. It is a deeper cut, but man, it is just so good!
My favorite is Puzzle, especially the Studio Coast concert version. The video and audio is exceptional. My next favorite is I Still Seek Revenge. There are 2 live versions, one from the Tokyo Garden Theater concert in 2023, and another from the 2024 Day of Maid concert. The studio version from the Unseen World cd is also very good.
"Best band I've seen in a long time", I agree and I'm not a young guy. Favorite Band-Maid song? All of them, or as is said, "The one you last listened to." That said I'll recommend the one I just listened to before your video, "Play" official live video.
Same, they are just so talented its amazing
Moratorium (live) is my absolute favourite if you can find a copy.... but also live versions of Play, Puzzle, Real Existance, and Onset (instrumental) are all available on BM's youtube channel
Great reaction problem is they all so finnn good but the track I love is DAYDREAMING it’s one of their earlier songs it’s not as loud and fast paced as hate but it shows how great they are in different styles of their music and keep on going down the pigeon hole you will love it 👍
I got daydreaming qued up for you!
Today, my favorite would be the live version of Honkai found here ua-cam.com/video/7iZj1_GOlc0/v-deo.htmlsi=ylkUCzi2DVB_wy6U
Great reaction! Daydreaming is my best answer for a favorite song. There are many right behind it though.
Favorite Band-Maid songs - Onset (Live) , From Now On, Dice, Alone. Unleash, Blooming, Giovani (The white room instrumental from the blue ray, there is no MV of the vocal version)... Sorry for listing so many
Favorite BAND-MAID song. That's a hard one. They are all so good. I would have to say ....Blooming Video.... Bubble Video..... From Now On video .... As for a live video, it would have to be Hate?
Puzzle
This one is debuting today
Akanes drumming was freaking phenomenal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
choose me MV
♥ these chikas! My fave song is *Bubble*
Not only my fave Band Maid song but in my top 10 all time faves!
What a fantastic band. My favourite is Secret My Lips🤘...and its MV.
