Chisa: "Ogenki desu ka? Watashiwa genki desu!" - "How are you? I am fine."
The exact dialogue from the japanese movie - Love Letter.
In the context of the song, that hits really hard. Say that dialogue in your mind while Chisa shouts and pause for a moment and think of the lyrics of the song. I honestly teared up.
It's the attention to detail not only in their songs but also their presentation and MV which amazes me. Their MVs are so coherent and every little detail adds to the appreciation of the song. Thank you for supporting XG! Forever XG. Go ALPHAZ!!
Took the words right out of my mouth! This song got me all teared up too. 🥲
Yes! In the beginning, Chisa shouts "Genki desu ka?" in Japanese. Asking, "Are you ok? " or "How are you?" and she answers herself by shouting "Watashi wa genki desu!" or translated, "I am fine". This scene is perhaps derived from "Love Letter" a 1995 Japanese romantic film written, directed and edited by Shunji Iwai in his debut feature film and starring Miho Nakayama. In the movie Nakayama plays 2 parts, one of the woman missing her deceased fiance after he died in a mountain climbing accident. Long after, she discovers his childhood address, and writes a letter to that address. And to her surprise, she gets an answer back, and it just so happens the girl living at that address, has the same name has her fiance.
Thank you for this.
MAYA’S VOICE!!! 😭♥️♥️♥️
Witnessing you going from knowing nothing at all about XG to reacting to each and every MV send me back to myself falling for them that quick. All it requires to love these girls is a heart, some kind of affection for music and being OK to lose yourself to your own deepest emotions.
The fact that all 7 are on those harmonies is crazy amazing! So much talent and this is just the beginning. Best Christmas song ever
I love that old school R&B is not just a concept for XG, they embrace it, pay homage to it, and embody the culture and music. You can drop this song in the 90s and it would fit in perfectly
It’s always amazing to me to watch how fast people fall for this group. I get it, I do: I went through it, too. It’s still joyfully bewildering to experience it vicariously.
I love it. Been here since debut day, so it's a gradual ride for me. But I love how people react to one scene and then compulsively get in sucked into the whole discography.
This is why you should watch their mv's in order. You already watched their debut song(Tippy Toes), then comes Mascara, Shooting Star, Left/Right, Girl Gang, TGIF, New Dance, and Puppet Show , with plenty of other content in between that showcase their many talents.
Maya's singing voice....I really like her voice.
Automatically added to the Christmas Playlist. Bringing those 90s early 2000s vibe which is what has always drawn me to them.
Once you watch Puppet Show you'll put more of what's going on here together. This is their Planet for sure. They showed it first in Puppet Show.
The power of Chisa and Juria duo is just insane, melting like butter hearing this chorus. Cried listening this Christmas masterpiece, every single second of this song is worth it. Take a note, this group will conquer the world, I don't have enough words to describe XG, they just surpass themselves with each song released. I love XG to death
Bro, also give some love to my girl Hinata, she is also part of the vocal line, for me her voice is a solid base on which the other two can create those beautiful harmonies that you are hearing, I know that it is all a matter of taste but you have to give credit where it's deserved
@@doraemon8975 of course, man! Don't get me wrong, I wrote just Chisa and Juria cause they sold me this song in the very beginning and connected immediately my memories with others XG songs (mostly chorus and bridges, when they established this duo). But give props to Hinata too! I love how more confortable she is with her english and more lines that she's having. Her harmony in the ending is just perfect (feels like cinnamon to me, a little sweet and conforting taste at the same time). To me, she brings the perfect connection between Chisa and Juria tones, adding balance to the bridges and choruses in XG's ballads and R&B songs. Very proud not only of her, but all 7! They are getting better and better with each passing day!
Hinata's too
hurry up hurry up
I want more of Hinata singing, her voice is beautiful
This made me tear up. It brings back the good times of 00s R&b vibe. Sigh this is so good, what a way to end the year.
In the beginning, that’s their planet. If you haven’t watched Puppet Show, the aesthetics of this MV is similar. All 7 are vocalists and it’s insane. I think the word you were looking for is XPOP. That’s their own thing
THIS is why XG is simply amazing. Like what girl group on the planet is doing what XG is doing at the level they are doing it? No one. Period. They literally can do anything. This group of 7 young women of XG are IT. This is perfect old skool R&B 90s/early 2000s & even some 80s with the fade out. How XG is still isnt one the biggest names & groups on the planet yet is a travesty IMO. The world needs to wake the f up on XG for real.
900って言ったところめっちゃ笑った😹
着眼点😹
The northern lights & the snowscape are referencing Puppet Show MV. The cliff, the last scene spaceship, and the blossom tree are referring to New Dance Official & Multiverse. If you watch those three MVs you will get the call backs. It is better sometimes to just listen to a beautiful song and try not to get caught up by all the references.
Also, the "retro look spaceship console" could reference Left Right, and Cocona's hairstyle in that part looks like in Tape#2. Easter eggs for X-Mas. But you can really just enjoy it on its own.
While the various groups competed with each other for intense or fast raps, XG, of course, proved to be an intense rapper and even performed groovy raps that were comfortable to listen to, as well as slow poetry raps.
These girls know what R&B is all about.
Chisa in the beginning screamed in Japanese: O genki desuka? (Are you fine/good)? Watashi wa genki desu (I am fine/good)
The beginning scene was a homage to Love Letter (1995 Japanese movie).
This part of the song melts my heart 7:25. It's so good!
Also one of my fav parts. Juria's adlib at the back is hauntingly beautiful 😢
If you watch the teaser for this video, the scene where they're in those "pods" sitting in front of the screens, you'll hear their parents' voices - it's a good throwback to the movie Interstellar when Matthew McConaughey is reacting to his videos from his families.
Chisa, Juria, Hinata 🎉 I hope to see the behind the scenes soon because I was expecting the family video messages from the preview. Tear jerker the first time I saw it.
#ohMAYAgod !!! XG bringing the best new #XMAS song of the year. This already is going to be classic in the years to come!!! The harmonies and the relaxed rap lines, the message.. LOVEEEEE
#Maya is the #Bridge that connects XG… LISTEN: 👇💜
You have your vocalist, you have your rappers, and you have MAYA. Her special ability to keep up her Rap and Flows, her ability to keep up her vocals and Tone… #XTRAXTRA just shows you why she needed to be who she needed to, and she’s slowly showing us up!
PERIDOT. 💜👏🙋🏻♂️💕
I don't think he cares about Maya much
Not to mention that Maya’s enunciation with English words is the best in the group in conversations, rap and signing, and MASSIVELY in interviews. Again, MAYA is a bridge for XG, which a bridge is an ability to provide passage/connection into new territory/audiences. Ty MAYA!!!
XG LETS GOOOOOOO!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I see you smiling the moment Harvey comes on!😉😁😁 This song definitely puts you in your feels!
You're genious！How do you know so much references ？Especially, the movie Love letter one. I had no idea even though I'm Japanese😂
This was an amazing reaction. I didn’t realize all the references. If you want more RnB check out Left Right, even Ciara jumped on the remix with Jackson Wang.
Let me tell you this. Maya.
She rap like crazy, has amazing flow, and she hit the high note here with her joyful joyful part.
And Juria! If I have to say XG's weakness is only their live vocal. But Juria is mostly stable and amazing live. Chisa and Maya, they're also good in those I heard. Hinata, to be honest I think she can do better for live.
I wonder if you saw the showcase in Japan, there you can clearly hear the live voices of all of them during the intro with X-Gene
@@doraemon8975 yes, and they prove me so wrong and I did regret not buying the ticket coz I was having doubts on their live vocal back then. I meant to say if I have to say, but tbh it's hard to find XG weakness... in which I refer to several mr removed video that I heard but also understandable with how hard they goes for dancing
Chisa cry in Japanese "OGENKIDESUKA? WATASHIWA GENKIDESU ". It`s mean "How are you? I am fine. " This is a line from a famous Japanese movie.
1:10 it's a homage to the the classic japanese movie "Love Letter (1995)", that was a huge success throughout East Asia.
The original line is 「お元気ですか？私は元気です 」 which roughly translates to "How are you? I'm fine."
It's also a tribute to the most famous scene in the film, which the main character yells to the mountains where was her deceased husband. His body was left on the snowy mountain, so she was unable to say goodbye to him.
I think I mentioned that :)
@@zack_reacts I noticed at end 😅
Thank you for this. You are a legend
The beginning of the video is a reenactment of a scene from "The Love Letter" back in 1995. All their music is from that year...the best year of my life and all XG has done is being that year back to me... especially this song. When your soulmate is called Home by God this song hits different. I haven't stopped weeping and wishing she opens the front door one more time...even for a fraction of a second. That's my Christmas wish.
Chisa shouting in the beginning is an homage to a Japanese movie called "Love Letter." In a scene the female lead shouts out in Japanese something to the effect of How are you doing and I am doing well or fine. So you hit it on the head. Good observation skills bro. I think they used it because in XG's case they are speaking to their loved ones (parents, siblings, etc.). My interpretation, not based on any facts. It is truly a great music video, with incredible visual effects and vocals.
Their voices, MY LORD 😊❤
Yooo! I missed being the first here huh? I've been following all of your XG reactions... and I love it ❤️
Thank you for your analysis and reaction, Zack! You pointed out details which i missed, as i was so focused on the vocal harmonies and the rap delivery. Now i have this awesome appreciation for this piece by XGALX and the Xtraordinary Girls. More power to your channel, Zack! 🔥
XG best Christmas gift to us ❄️🩵☃️
Always appreciate your thoughts on XG 🙌
the almost to the end clip which was the trailer was actually a video message from their parents, hence you can see them tears in their eyes..i literally teared when I saw this video..the vocals thrusted my ears so sharp that i can feel the tone of their voices meaning ever single word. Truly build different, hit different, new breed!
I loooooove this song……
Thank you for supporting XG. I hope next year will be dreams come true for the girls. Love them, they are working super hard: 8 MV, 2 rap videos, 1 vocal video, one full rap song collaboration with Street woman fighter 2, 3 american small concerts, 1 singapore, 1 Australia, 1 abu dhabi, and first showcase in japan. They still get hated sometimes, but I'm so happy the fandom is getting bigger by the time. Wish the best for XG, Simon, Staff, and all Alphaz around the world ♾️
Omg you know much more than me you mention love story 😮😮😮😮what a man
Thank you for your reaction to XG and the continued support on your channel.
This is such an amazing song my hope is that it gets the attention it so deserves.
It has become my favorite song by XG.💖💖
World Tour 2024. 👽👽👽👽👽👽👽💖💖
Jurin 🦋Chisa 🌞Hinata 💠Harvey 🦄Juria 🧸Maya 🐕Cocona 🍄.
ALPHAZ 🐺👽👽👽👽👽👽👽👾💖
I just watched it also and while I'm not a fan of Christmas songs too much, I enjoyed it and will put it into my Holiday rotation with The Peanuts album. Another good review! I love to hear what you see and hear.
Hinata, Chisa and Juria, their harmony together always insane!! sounds so great 🔥
❤They are X！
At the beginning,Chisa is shouting in Japanese.
And the meaning is like," How are you doing?I'm doing well"
XG ❤❤❤❤
On the beginning Chisa was screaming in Japanese “O Genki desu ka” “watashi wa Genki desu” which means “are you ok/ doing well?” “I am ok/ doing well”
It is surprising that you, an American, knew about the hit 1995 Japanese movie "love letter" in Asia."At the beginning, Chisa said ""How are you?"I'm fine," is a famous line that the main character of the movie said to his deceased lover.Many people will miss the days when R&B and that movie were popular in the 90's.I am one of them.
the video display seems to be from the movie Interstellar
React to Puppet Show and this video scenery would make so much more sense.
💯
Early Christmas gift from XG
Added to my holiday playlist! This is so goooood
At the beginning of the video she’s yelling to earth to her person there that she’s missing since they’re on another planet. At least that’s how I understood it😂❤
Fyi, if you haven't watched Puppet show, the aesthetics are similar for their home planet, and the interior shots are similar to new dance. So, in addition to being talented, they're also very consistent with their continuity in their music videos .
I absolutely love the 90s vibe. The vocals are too strong not to do more ballads ❤️🐺👽
3:04
There's a GIF going around Discord of Harvey doing this pose with Birdman.
Idk if she meant to do it but she does it exactly like he does it.
Funny to see that mannerism.
really enjoy your breakdown of XG videos
5:58 *From left to right* :
COCONA (The youngest member), HARVEY, MAYA, JURIN, JURIA, CHISA and HINATA.
Maya cold as a rapper, but when she sang tho...
Thats fire . The whole universe references 🌌
Please react to GRL GVNG by XG, both the MV (the song is shortened) and the full song!! Thank you so much for appreciating XG’s work!
You just space out man! ❤ cant believe I'd see you space out on a reaction XG really is something special 🔥🔥
😂 yes pls lets have a song for every holiday
They are my reason for living🐺
✨✨👽🎄XG🎄🎅✨✨❤️🔥
You gotta watch the 2 live versions..same song but diff vibes
One is called "first take " and the other is "it's live"
wow this man’s analysis!!! enjoy as usual
This video picks up from new dance video
🐺❤️
the first takeもXGのこの曲がいずれアップされます。1発撮りで歌っているのが聞けるUA-camチャンネルです❤
Watch Puppet Show. This picks up from that video.
🐺⛄❄🌨
LOL yo you are the best...."Is that like the Earth..."
Go watch if you haven't their full version of Grl Gvng ASL... they are phenomenal.
“They Are X” #FACTS
👍🔥🔥🔥🎄☃️
Apparently the call out is two phrases in Japan related to an iconic love song, story
Christmas song banger ! ❤
Sir are you working with XGALX !!?? I always love your input it’s amazing. Thank you for supporting XG❤❤❤
What Chisa is yelling is O Genki Desu Ka? (Are you ok?) Watashi wa Genki Desu. (I am doing ok).
There a lots of circles in their videos. Pretty much the whole New DNA album.
Apparently in the beginning Chisa is screaming “How are you?” And “I’ve been fine” or something to that effect in Japanese. Read that somewhere so take with a grain of salt.
Dreamcatcher OOTD 👈
Puppet show references too maybe?
He reacted to xg - left right ?
How do you feel now after discovering XG ?
@zack_reacts you be sleeping on Juria. On a song like this, she delivers about 70% of the best vocals. You mention every members name except Juria. SMH.
Love your channel, keep up the amazing work!
