    I've spent the last 2 1/2 years trying to figure out why this band is so satisfying. One reason; you can listen to any song over and over and over again and never get tired of it. Every time you listen you'll hear something you've never noticed before; maybe a decoration in Akane's drum pattern, or MISA making a run up the fretboard, or Miku doing something with her backing chords or vocals, or Kanami doing some intricate pattern, or Saiki playing with the vocals ... it's uncanny.
    Fans sometimes complain when Kanami is low in the mix but when she's doing those little complicated riffs, as you pointed out, she doesn't expect the spotlight to be on her ... it should be on Saiki. I think she treats it like wallpaper; something for atmosphere in the room. Like, you are not supposed to be looking at the >wall

    It occurs to me that probably the biggest benefit of the self-cover videos on Band-Maid Prime, even more than helping to learn parts oneself, is that when you can _see_ a player, you can better focus your hearing on them. And it's really hard, even listening to just the audio on headphones, to maintain focus on what just one Maid is doing because somebody else is doing something distractingly cool every five seconds. So having just one member on screen really helps to listen to an instrument all the way through a song.

YOLO is also their most diverse song there is 4 yes 4 different versions this one and instrumental version of this one a Band-Maiko version called "Yolosiosu" and an Acoustic version they did at Line Cube on Feb 14th 2020.

    You're right bro. Especially in "YOLO", MISA, A-chan, and Mincho do so many things that they don't NEED to do but add so much to the song. I also find Saiki to be smoldering in this one. My favorite BM song.

    One of the things that makes Band-Maid great is that they do everything it takes to make a great rock song, and then they do more. And then they do more and do it differently in every song. One hundred + songs, plus live versions, plus acoustic versions, plus instrumental versions. You will be at this for a while... and love every second of it.

    Jules, Good comment about Kanami and more frets. These young women ARE professional musicians! Heart, brain, soul. I feel Akane and Misa with their polyrhythmic rifts appeal to the heart. Misa's rifts dance all over your heart. Kanami with her many rifts keeps stimulating your brain, and Saiki and Miku nourish your soul with their vocals.

      @@JulesTheHuman TBH don't get your hopes up too high on yolosiosu. It's the only track off the Maiko EP that is worse than the original and also doesn't really add anything to it either IMHO. I think YOLO is easily a top 20 track but unlike the other Maiko covers it doesn't warrant being there IMHO. It would have been much better to do Moratorium or Puzzle with some Japanese 3-string instead. That said you should do Secret My Lips and Secret Maiko Lips 2fer. That original and the Maiko version are a great example of two songs that are still the same song but rightfully both belong on a playlist because you get something different out of each.

    Yolo is definitely a top 10 or top 20 song and yet only the 4th or 5th best song on the album. It is so damn good. Early 00's rock riff and nostalgia vibe, drums and bass ramps the energy up and down higher than the early 00's ever reached, catchy vocals, then a killer solo and somehow the highlight is the second half of the bridge? Insanity. How many bands have a great song where the best part of the song is the bridge? They have a knack for making bridges that are so good they would be the best song for any other band.

    English lyrics from Japanese one stop
    We put the blame in everything
    Through unattainable words.
    The things we can’t win against,
    It feels that they’re normal in our daily lives.
    I protect myself from the mass confusion of people.
    Being together with anyone,
    I pretended not to see anything, not to hear anything.
    Each time I lie, my chest tightens up.
    I open my eyes to seek, the source of the throbbing.
    I draw up a permanent magic spell,
    So that I can’t be hindered by anyone.
    My feelings are getting stronger
    As the dawn breaks in these wishful days.
    Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond
    The shining morning glow.
    It starts from hereon!
    The word we call “Fate”,
    We give it out in desperation.
    It feels like I’m now back to zero,
    patching out the contemporary tomorrows.
    My head keeps spinning,
    somehow I can’t sleep
    Leaving things unsolved,
    As I head into the morning,
    What will change?
    Dreams and hopes, after having set-backs,
    They keep piling up on one another.
    The story of increasing the value of my existence.
    I’m proud of my rebellious self.
    English translatî
    I draw up a permanent magic spell,
    So that I can’t be hindered by anyone.
    My feelings are getting stronger
    As the dawn breaks in these wishful days.
    Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond
    The shining morning glow.
    It starts from hereon!
    I draw up a permanent magic spell,
    I have conceived an unbreakable will.
    My eyes will never bewilder.
    I said to the expanding world before me;
    “Nice to meet you”
    My heart is pounding in excitement.
    It only happens once - that’s right, I’ll seize the day.
    The party is starting - time to prepare.
    I have no interest in something artistic.
    I don’t seek anything like eternity.
    All these boring give and takes,
    It’s all stupid - so just throw them away.
    Isn’t it better to collide head on?
    Fight on, right now.
    I draw up a permanent magic spell,
    So that I can’t be hindered by anyone.
    My feelings are getting stronger
    As the dawn breaks in these wishful days.
    Ta-ta for now - I’m off to what’s beyond
    The shining morning glow.
    It starts from here on!

    G'day Jules. Agree on the slower cuts.. I like seeing them do their stuff! And Saiki really is exploring the lead vocal space. This one before my time so can't comment on the set, other than the open circle still lets us focus on the Maids while looking cool! Quite a few of the early MVs focus on players but in wide open settings. Try "Non-fiction days"... it's even a tiny bit longer than usual. Of the recent MVs I do like 'Manners' for style - you did the live version.

      Kanami no longer uses Addictone. She is now sponsored by PRS so uses those exclusively. (She is also sponsored by Mesa Boogie for her amp and cab). Fun fact from when she did use Addictone - the founder of Addictone was one of Kanami's guitar teachers before Band-Maid.
