    Mass bass guitar is new. She wanted a design with white walls that turned yellow with cigarettes, and the manufacturer made it as desired. This song is a message from BAND MAID to fans who can't meet because of COVIT-19.

    That song really grown on me. At first, I just loved the chorus and MISA's bass parts (and the lyrics obviously) but after listening several times, I really liked Akane's drum parts and Kanami's work on guitar.
    "about Us" reminds me a little bit of "At the drop of a hat": acoustic guitar intro, similar vocals, Akane's marching band kind of drum beats, MISA's groovy bass and that fantastic (one of my favorite) pre-chorus which recalls the chorus of "about Us".
    Earlier, I preordered the limited edition Blu-Ray. Man, that is expensive! It says that the second disc will feature 5 tracks with special camera views for each individual member. They were using those cameras for "Manners" chorus in the livestream I guess.
    I don't know what quality to expect with the other songs of the livestream. Can they improve the audio mix and the video quality? I hope so. And more importantly, are they going to let the long "Choose ME" intro and add subtitles to the entier performance? Because they were talking a lot and, like Steven Tyler said: "I don't want to miss a thing"
    Thank you Mr B 🙃

    "About Us" is an amazing song - a direction I'm glad to see them add to their journey toward world domination. And we get to hear MISA play the vibe she so enjoys. Stretch Band-Maid... Stretch with all your might. We're behind you 100! Their new DVD/BD/CD of this incredible concert has been ordered! Thanks, Mr B, for bringing "About Us" to your viewers!

    MISA's bass is actually new. It was made to look old, but it is virtually identical to her black bass. Miku and Kanami also had new guitars for this show. About all they did in post-production was bring the bass forward a little, and the vocals seem a little smoother. The DVD/Blueray of this show will be out on May 26. Can't wait. Beautiful song.

    Hopefully the pandemic will turn out to have had a silver lining for them. Seems like they got a lot of new fans because because people had extra time stuck at home to explore those suggestions on the right side of the UA-cam screen. Just imagine if the algorithm had suggested Band-Maid to people watching rock in general instead of just Japanese groups.

      The other benefit is the Ladies have had over a year to just practice and write music, their last tour lasted 2 years cant write much. Now they have had almost 14 months to practice all be it remotely at times and just write new music and lyrics. I feel once all this nonsense of the past year is over they will get their chance to truly shine globally given they have new label and agents, same ones that handle BabyMetal IIRC that can only bode well for them.

    Here’s a super fan (t-shinji) translation of Saiki’s heartfelt monologue / speech before this song was performed that day:
    Saiki: We were supposed to meet you today. For the first time in a year, we thought we could meet you all, those of you who could come to see us, but we can’t meet you in the end. I’m sorry. Even though it’s not my fault.
    We have been having days of turmoil for about a year. In the beginning, we were very surprised because we hadn’t experienced it before, and we had no experience of not being able to meet others in person. We were sad, but we found we shouldn’t be sad in this situation. When I saw you masters and princesses on social media, you were more depressed than us, and we thought that’s terrible.
    We Band-Maid have been thinking about how to cheer up all of you in the last one year. We truly wanted to meet you at Nippon Budokan, but it’s impossible because of COVID, so let’s wait for the day when we can meet.
    And in the last one year… or in the COVID pandemic, we have become more eager to cheer you up, and we Band-Maid realized again it’s important to give our songs to you.
    That’s why we wrote this song for Budokan.
    We made the album also in the pandemic, so it might have a little similar feel, but this song is planned for Nippon Budokan, and we really want to give it to you masters and princesses now.
    Budokan is not our goal but just a stepping stone. We will perform at bigger venues, and we promise we will bring you there and give you even better songs, so let’s keep it up a little more.
    This is our present for you masters and princesses. Please listen to it.
