@@dragonsheen3049they retired the backing tracks in 2014 lol. The guys in facepaint/masks are actual musicians from various bands. Facepaint guys are the ACTUAL band of the group and they are insane in the live videos.
This has always been one of my very favorite performances of Babymetal. First of all obviously Moa and Yui aren't really playing guitar but it gives the vibe of when you let your little sibling use the controller that isn't actually plugged in while you play a video game just so they can have fun and be included and its just adorable. They are having so much fun and I love how the guitarist joined their sides for the solos. Second it's such a rarity to see Sue just free on stage with no choreography to follow. She's also clearly having a ton of fun! Overall this whole performance just screamed fun.
Who wouldn't... we are humble mortals not worthy, she proves that she is... Is natural specially those girls approach the genre with the respect to the elders...
Rob Halford is a LEGEND. EDIT : Seriously, The Metal God as we mortals know as Rob must feel like a proud grandfather. Never in a million years would he have imagined a stage like this. To quote THE quote of quotes by Chuck D referring to Nirvana, it was a changing of the guard.
Rob is just so metal. He's about the music and the spirit. He's always been supporting other bands, I love him for doing this, and they are all obviously having such a blast.
“The girl??” SuMetal is the Queen of metal! Long Live the Queen! … (you may not believe this but I actually wrote that before I realized how ironic … oh never mind).
@@michaelbartolomeo2926 Who voted her the Queen? I didn't. She is a good singer, but to declare her the Queen is a quite a stretch. There are several female metal singers better than her.
They are more metal than we can ever hope to be! Just because they're not fat middle aged white dudes singing about Vikings, and Satan doesn't mean they're not metal.
today I learned there was a live concert where Rob Halford of Judas Priest dressed up like Dr. Eggman and performed Painkiller and Breaking the Law with Babymetal.
He's Rob Halford, he's like 64 years old and has been the lead singer of one of the greatest heavy metal band off all time, he's a meta godl. Do you think he gives a fuck ? He just does what he want
They have the ability to collaborate with whoever they want because they know how to make two things that shouldn't go together work. My dream is that they would collaborate with Abbath, as that would take the opposite ends of the metal genre and make them one.
The most overlooked thing in the comment section: Babymetal's band is legit and badass. It's honestly, at least in my opinion, what makes Babymetal legit. Su's vocals are good overall, but damn their band is beast.
BABYMETAL seems rock solid on every song I hear from them. And I'm pretty late to their party. They blew me away on many of their performances. And the BMTH collaboration, "Kingslayer" was some killer vocals from them too. That one kicked my ass.
As a singer and dancer I can tell you that Su's vocal power and range is amazing. And the fact that she can do it with that choreography is even more impressive. But yes to everything you said abkut the Kami band too
55 yo. Old-school metalhead here........ìf Rob thinks it's ok, it's fine with me as well. You don't have to like BM. But they have fun and they bring fun to a lot of other people....so what.

Commenting over and over again the same banal complaint on a metal video you don't like is the most pathetically un-metal thing you can do. Metal listens to no authority. Metal is the most "fuck the rules, do what you feel like" genre there is. You can mix it with anything. Anyone can be a part of it. Anyone can love it. Anyone can find a style or sub-genre that's perfect for them and rock-out. And if you don't understand that you're not metal and you never were.
@John Sutton Rob Halford is one of the few metal artists out there to really be able to Define what it is to be metal. He and Bruce Dickinson AR two of the Elder Statesman of metal. Neither of them have any fucks to give and we'll tell you exactly what they think about anything and everything without fear of repercussions. Either of their endorsement is enough for me. Get off your high horse and just enjoy the music.
This is the coolest thing BM has ever done. Unscripted Su is a total dork onstage, but it looks like she's actually having fun instead of just performing the choreography. That little dance she does with Rob is adorable. The Kami band are obviously into it and having a great time. I watched this like 10 times at least.
Been a Priest fan for a majority of my life, This is a great thing. Get kids-Teens interested in Metal/Rock. Get them interested in play instruments. Thanks Baby Metal, I may not get it 100% But your cool in my book.
Don't get your hopes up too high. My favorite genre has been 21st century "metal" like Nightwish for a decade, and I still had to Google Rob Halford to find out what band he was in. (I feel like Nightwish is like pro wrestling. As a fan you love it, then you realize it's all fake, then you maybe start to love it again anyway.)
Give it a little more time, only second album. Great open mind and comment. It may not get better then this campy act they are putting out, but we may see a revolution. I'm a big fan of the campy act, by the way. Their big sister EDM version, Perfume, (same choreographer and manager) is the campiest simple act ever, but I have downloaded extreme silly happiness and joy from everything about them !!! Mostly, their friendship and asian respect of humans. We need that !!!!
They didn't know anything about metal before they were recruited, why should they care now? I don't even care. I had to Google Rob Halford to find out what band he was in.
I turn 37 this November and while punk is my favorite genre, I've also loved metal for damn near each of those 37 years. Babymetal isn't doing a damn thing to ruin metal, they are simply expanding it. If you can't see that, of if you're simply "too metal" to acknowledge it.... Then well that's on you.
How you can ruin metal by producing something "metal"like? To change something either develop or ruin you need to have enough influence on core trend within genre.. Babymetal has 0 influence, but just have its own audience and is a crippled child among core sub-genres of metal (it is not something bad actually).. Harsh reaction (as for myself as well) just comes from canonical understanding of metal and original Judas Priest sound.. that J-**** thing just pisses me off and it is subjective opinion, nothing to do with objective conclusion on the metal-like art Babymatal deliver
Totally agree!! I enjoy this style they have created! Visually and musically it`s so enjoyable. The girls are just amazing. Their fitness level is just insane to do what they do on stage.
I mean they did come from the idol scene, which is historically just consists of singing and choreographed dance. Not to mention she's supposed to be the 'serious' one
I bet no current pop star will be brave enough to perform with rob. The audiences will riot and rip apart that pop star. But, these 3 girls, who bear all the signature of japanese pop star, can perform on metal festival. I must admit japan product is really out of the box and wonderful. Oh yeah, the band is also rock !!!
you're wrong, maybe you dont know japanese music, but they have more skilled singer than any other country because they sing more than any other country......karaoke is a national sport, sing is in the culture for everybody since childhood to after work, there's more than 20.000voice actors who sing 2 to 6 songs for more than 300animes series per years... they have more than 1000 idol band who all know sing and dance...... so in fact japan have probably some of the best singer of the world, and many of them could sing metal and could be brave enough... For me, idol sucks by their lack of soul, not by their lack of skill..quite all japan music is produced since begininng while USA and european music start from a talent, or friend band. and to have see idol concert, i think metal and idol are very similar in public energy, everybody move dance and react, but of course its very different in music and meaning.
+Rendy Andrian anyone from modern pop music performing with Rob would basically commit a "suicide"...... I mean can you imagine Bieber's vocals next to Rob's :D:D that'd be silly.....
Su was completely in her element for this! I have never seen her this happy performing before and those screams? She simply needed Rob to act as a catalyst to bring her inner metal beast to life!
Umm... babymetal.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/6c239ac77cead0489acbfaf11c998fe3.jpg Now you can cry. They toured together. They share the same fandom (except for the fake metalheads like you). btw Slayers last album is excellent and Its a shame they didn't get the recognition they deserve. So, at least, put your money where your mouth is. :)
All I see is a group of musicians jamming out and having fun. And that makes me happy. I love these kinds of live crossovers. You can see that everyone on stage is so relaxed. They're just here to have fun and they are not afraid that theirs performance won't be the best. Also look at Su at 2:51. I feel so happy for her. This must be a dream of her's coming true right in this moment!
I Fucking love babymetal I too considered myself a purist at some point but yeah Babymetal taught me that Metal doesn't have to be tough looking people to be metal these girls and specially Kami-Band just kills it everywhere they go I just sure hope I get to see them live someday :)
That is a Metal evolution into the 22nd Century... There are Awesome Metal music no matter if it's evil, good, ugly or cute, Metal music must live on forever!!! BabyMetal is an evolution to a different form of Metal that must be supported by all Metal Heads! What you want your kids to have only idols like Justin Beiber or Taylor Swift god awful cutesy music or do you prefer your kids listening to BabyMetal because it cater to their day and age??!!! Yes, Yes I do!!! I support these Metal Girls and their band and now my 3 year old Grand Daughter will listen to them for now on. This old retired Metal Head must continue his new family Generation on loving Metal Rock music and BabyMetal will help them love it more and appreciate the old Metal Music.... That's MHO take it or leave it....
Why do you thing that everyone hates Babymetal just because they're not tough looking? I hate them, because the band is created by producers, and none of band members do anything to create their own music. And Kami Band are not even the members of Babymetal, just a "supporting band". I hate Babymetal, because they're the first artificial band in metal.
Nowadays, people are more concerned with taking photos on their cell phones during a heavy metal concert. After all, it's more important than mosh pits.🤘🤘
That theme riff on Breaking the law is one the most underrated riffs of all time. It NEVER appears in any of the Best of ... lists but is friggin' recognisable. I mean EVERYBODY knows this.
This clip proves 2 things. Rob Halford is an extrordinary singer. Babymetal are a fantastic band and the girls miming with the guitars sound better than most of my students! It also proves that I can't count!
the thing about the Japanese is they know how to show honor to something great and they played this song fucking PERFECT! They showed this song great honor by playing it exactly how it was recorded. excellent job for real.
i love the fact that Rob decided to wear the Babymetal colors. The girls don´t look very likely to be "Breaking the law" yet in the near future but still this was a lot of fun anyway
@@o8poq8o And that's how they made the big bucks! If breaking boundaries and doing something fresh and new is considered "breaking the law", then no wonder the current western music industry is boring as fuck. They combined something fresh and new and people liked it! Even non-metal fans back in the Glastonbery 2019 music festival liked it. Fuck you!
Don't be so harsh, people. Singing Halford tunes ain't an easy task, let along while he is one stage with you. And when it comes to bitchin' difficult songs to sing, "Painkiller" takes the cake. So kudos to Suzuka for enjoying this and having a great time on stage. And remember: Babymetal is about making metal more popular. It might seem odd to us metalheads, but for most people Babymetal is easier to find and choose than Judas Priest. And that's how they will end up discovering Priest, Dragonforce, Maiden, Megadeth etc. What do you prefer? Metal bands going soft to please the radio and the closed-minded parents, or bands like Babymetal introducing people to metal?
for me, babymetal is a reminder that music as a whole is supposed to be fun. I've seen babymetal live 3 times so far and had fun at every single show. they're energetic, they can sing and dance live, and their backing band are the real deal. if metal legends like Halford, Rob Zombie and Dave Mustaine can give them the thumbs up then that should be good enough for anyone.
I live in a remote, BFE location. Only discovered Babymetal , like less than a month ago. A Metalhead since 86' but went more Punk as Metal changed after the Black Album (Metallica). Babymetal is fresh, new approach but honestly nobody can claim that anything the US has put out in the last decade or so can match their energy, gleeful approach to metal. Anything that can put a smile on the face of an Old Warhorse (not in a dirty way either) can't be bad.
Check out Lovebites, the best all female metal band from Japan - they have an 80s metal sound, a twin axe attack like Judas Priest, and they sing in English. They won 2018 Metal Hammer's Golden Gods award for best new metal band. ua-cam.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/v-deo.html They did a cover of Painkiller with killer guitar solos. ua-cam.com/video/ivJXmOVsFaA/v-deo.html
@@Frip36 mikio fujioka was a guitarist for BABYMETAL (he’d been with them since their formation in 2013) and unfortunately died in 2018 from injuries he sustained from a fall. he was only 36. it’s widely speculated among fans of BABYMETAL that their 2018 song ‘Starlight’ is meant to be a tribute to him.
I saw Priest in 2022. Dude is unstoppable. He pushed himself so hard, didn't miss a beat or sing off key at all, despite literally looking like he was going to die at some points.
look at the KamiBand members ..dang all of them are having so much fun just look at everyone from SU ,Yui, Moa and finally Rob they just enjoying the opportunity to jam together. Nice show.
Kawaii is just their natural state, but add metal to it, and it amplifies it. Singing Judas Priest songs with Rob Halford - I don't think it gets any more metal than that. I will have this stuck in my head for the rest of the day, and that's a good thing!
im a 60 years old,well known musician,and i will not promote myself,but got to say that i dont understand all that arguing of ,,metalheads,times have changed and now its all about having fun-and it is good,clean fun.not more -not less.dont take it too serious.its a good thing when young people pay respect to older musicians.

Amazing! Rob, the old man, sings high tones more easily than young girl. "Metal God" isn't just only a name. he deserves everyone to call him the Metal God!
In an interview he said something to the effect of "metal is about passion, being authentic, going hard and not giving a fuck when people don't like it. Babymetal is that in a nutshell, part of the new generation advancing what metal's all about."
I really hope we see more guitar playing from them in the future. That will be the final sign that they have broken the J-pop idol mold and have become something unique.

Harsh reaction (as for myself as well) just comes from canonical understanding of metal and original Judas Priest sound.. that J-**** thing just pisses me off and it is subjective opinion, nothing to do with objective conclusion on the metal-like art Babymatal deliver
once upon a time, theres no metal music
@@adhominem_ good people should know that you hate them because it s J . SHOW YOUR COLOR
@@wearecatyouarerat2802 what are you talking about? Where did I mention that I hate people?
Totally agree!! I enjoy this style they have created! Visually and musically it`s so enjoyable. The girls are just amazing. Their fitness level is just insane to do what they do on stage.
If you're metal enough for Rob Halford, you are metal enough. Period.
FACTS.
Dope
Fantastic !
Spectacular!
It's good to see Su singing and performing in a more spontaneous fashion - normally everything they do is so choreographed.
That's because they're putting on a show, which is what Metal used to be.
She looks like she's loving it!
I mean they did come from the idol scene, which is historically just consists of singing and choreographed dance. Not to mention she's supposed to be the 'serious' one
I bet no current pop star will be brave enough to perform with rob. The audiences will riot and rip apart that pop star. But, these 3 girls, who bear all the signature of japanese pop star, can perform on metal festival. I must admit japan product is really out of the box and wonderful. Oh yeah, the band is also rock !!!
you're wrong, maybe you dont know japanese music, but they have more skilled singer than any other country because they sing more than any other country......karaoke is a national sport, sing is in the culture for everybody since childhood to after work, there's more than 20.000voice actors who sing 2 to 6 songs for more than 300animes series per years... they have more than 1000 idol band who all know sing and dance...... so in fact japan have probably some of the best singer of the world, and many of them could sing metal and could be brave enough...
For me, idol sucks by their lack of soul, not by their lack of skill..quite all japan music is produced since begininng while USA and european music start from a talent, or friend band.
and to have see idol concert, i think metal and idol are very similar in public energy, everybody move dance and react, but of course its very different in music and meaning.
+Rendy Andrian anyone from modern pop music performing with Rob would basically commit a "suicide"...... I mean can you imagine Bieber's vocals next to Rob's :D:D that'd be silly.....
Su was completely in her element for this! I have never seen her this happy performing before and those screams? She simply needed Rob to act as a catalyst to bring her inner metal beast to life!
slayer fans would rip baby metal fans apart.
Umm... babymetal.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/6c239ac77cead0489acbfaf11c998fe3.jpg
Now you can cry.
They toured together. They share the same fandom (except for the fake metalheads like you). btw Slayers last album is excellent and Its a shame they didn't get the recognition they deserve. So, at least, put your money where your mouth is. :)
This is my favorite album.
And one of the Best Metal Guitar Riffs ever 😊
All I see is a group of musicians jamming out and having fun. And that makes me happy. I love these kinds of live crossovers. You can see that everyone on stage is so relaxed. They're just here to have fun and they are not afraid that theirs performance won't be the best.
Also look at Su at 2:51. I feel so happy for her. This must be a dream of her's coming true right in this moment!
felt the same watching, she is grinning like mad.
THIS!! This comment sums this up perfectly.
Oh, men, this gonna piss off so many purist. I love it XD
If after all that, someone were to say "it's not metal", they should turn in their metal card, because they no longer have any idea what metal is!
I Fucking love babymetal I too considered myself a purist at some point but yeah Babymetal taught me that Metal doesn't have to be tough looking people to be metal these girls and specially Kami-Band just kills it everywhere they go I just sure hope I get to see them live someday :)
That is a Metal evolution into the 22nd Century... There are Awesome Metal music no matter if it's evil, good, ugly or cute, Metal music must live on forever!!! BabyMetal is an evolution to a different form of Metal that must be supported by all Metal Heads! What you want your kids to have only idols like Justin Beiber or Taylor Swift god awful cutesy music or do you prefer your kids listening to BabyMetal because it cater to their day and age??!!! Yes, Yes I do!!! I support these Metal Girls and their band and now my 3 year old Grand Daughter will listen to them for now on. This old retired Metal Head must continue his new family Generation on loving Metal Rock music and BabyMetal will help them love it more and appreciate the old Metal Music.... That's MHO take it or leave it....
Why do you thing that everyone hates Babymetal just because they're not tough looking? I hate them, because the band is created by producers, and none of band members do anything to create their own music. And Kami Band are not even the members of Babymetal, just a "supporting band". I hate Babymetal, because they're the first artificial band in metal.
'First artificial band in metal'??? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
Old and new metal coming together with such natural fluidity. So Epic
The guitars "played" by Yui and Moa must be worth a fortune.
Bruh the audience’s energy level is like -100
Nowadays, people are more concerned with taking photos on their cell phones during a heavy metal concert. After all, it's more important than mosh pits.🤘🤘
@@gitterich haven't been to a concert in ages. Sounds disappointing.
@@urishimait really depends, but from my recent experiences, it really just seems like this was a dead crowd
2:52 MAN !!!! this riff is INSANE
That riff was what first put metal on the map for me in the early 80's
@@desrever1138 what? This riff is from 1990
@@desrever1138 what?
@@desrever1138 bro painkiller came out in 1990
That theme riff on Breaking the law is one the most underrated riffs of all time. It NEVER appears in any of the Best of ... lists but is friggin' recognisable. I mean EVERYBODY knows this.
This clip proves 2 things. Rob Halford is an extrordinary singer. Babymetal are a fantastic band and the girls miming with the guitars sound better than most of my students!
It also proves that I can't count!
the thing about the Japanese is they know how to show honor to something great and they played this song fucking PERFECT! They showed this song great honor by playing it exactly how it was recorded. excellent job for real.
i love the fact that Rob decided to wear the Babymetal colors. The girls don´t look very likely to be "Breaking the law" yet in the near future but still this was a lot of fun anyway
they r breaking the law by singing pop over metal
@@o8poq8o - You are guilty of douchebaggery.
@@o8poq8o And that's how they made the big bucks! If breaking boundaries and doing something fresh and new is considered "breaking the law", then no wonder the current western music industry is boring as fuck.
They combined something fresh and new and people liked it! Even non-metal fans back in the Glastonbery 2019 music festival liked it.
Fuck you!
I'd break the law with them
@@o8poq8o they arent pop
Went to Rockville to see Tool, but was amazed by Judas Priest. Rob is still a badass.
Dang those big notes sounding like a King Diamond track. Fun watching Rob having fun!
THEIR VOICES SYNC SO NICELY I LOVE THIS PERFORMANCE SM
Metal master
Seeing babymetal and kami band interact like that together makes me happy 😊 RIP Mikio makes me sad he’s not with us anymore
This has to be one of the most amazing generational gaps ever. Serious performance, great work by all, and you can tell they were just having fun.
When she says Pain Kiwwa.... I almost died laughing.... Faster then a spee ding buwwet
Don't be so harsh, people. Singing Halford tunes ain't an easy task, let along while he is one stage with you. And when it comes to bitchin' difficult songs to sing, "Painkiller" takes the cake.
So kudos to Suzuka for enjoying this and having a great time on stage.
And remember: Babymetal is about making metal more popular. It might seem odd to us metalheads, but for most people Babymetal is easier to find and choose than Judas Priest. And that's how they will end up discovering Priest, Dragonforce, Maiden, Megadeth etc. What do you prefer? Metal bands going soft to please the radio and the closed-minded parents, or bands like Babymetal introducing people to metal?
Unfortunately the truth will fall on deaf ears. Metal and rap attract a shit ton of assholes that will always taint the communities. Sad.
Those bands are popular no one need to discover them, also dragonforce is the joke of power metal.
and you're the joke of metalheads
for me, babymetal is a reminder that music as a whole is supposed to be fun. I've seen babymetal live 3 times so far and had fun at every single show. they're energetic, they can sing and dance live, and their backing band are the real deal. if metal legends like Halford, Rob Zombie and Dave Mustaine can give them the thumbs up then that should be good enough for anyone.
Exactly. Babymetal is showing many ppl that metal also has as much energy as other genres 🤟
I live in a remote, BFE location. Only discovered Babymetal , like less than a month ago. A Metalhead since 86' but went more Punk as Metal changed after the Black Album (Metallica). Babymetal is fresh, new approach but honestly nobody can claim that anything the US has put out in the last decade or so can match their energy, gleeful approach to metal. Anything that can put a smile on the face of an Old Warhorse (not in a dirty way either) can't be bad.
Check out Lovebites, the best all female metal band from Japan - they have an 80s metal sound, a twin axe attack like Judas Priest, and they sing in English. They won 2018 Metal Hammer's Golden Gods award for best new metal band. ua-cam.com/video/bgAxpEpEcno/v-deo.html They did a cover of Painkiller with killer guitar solos. ua-cam.com/video/ivJXmOVsFaA/v-deo.html
Rob halford with babyfied is probably one of the funniest things I've ever seen
Something that bruce never could mantein in level, the vocals ofrece this sir are insane
I adore this. It makes me smile. You can tell they're all just having such a blast. Grinning like maniacs.
5:04 RIP Mikio - this is so sad, he was always so excited when playing :( what a lovely man
Greatest tragedy of my adult life. And I include the death of both my parents.
Those two rifts too, awesome at that ...
Please explain.
@@Frip36 mikio fujioka was a guitarist for BABYMETAL (he’d been with them since their formation in 2013) and unfortunately died in 2018 from injuries he sustained from a fall. he was only 36. it’s widely speculated among fans of BABYMETAL that their 2018 song ‘Starlight’ is meant to be a tribute to him.
Painkiller sounds like a grandma scolding her grandkid and the grandkid talking smack back at her lmao.
I saw Priest in 2022. Dude is unstoppable. He pushed himself so hard, didn't miss a beat or sing off key at all, despite literally looking like he was going to die at some points.
It's so sweet to see that those legendary metal artists are supporting BabyMetal.
While haters here bitch about some fake guitar parts, Babymetal are playing with Rob 'The metal God' Halford LOL
Jealousy and bitterness are strong emotions :D let these losers cry over teen girls being cooler than they'll ever be.
babymetal guitarists are not fake...Check Ohmura Takayoshi then it will be obvious that he is not fake..
+Lungsy1988 Agreed! :D
+KAY people were not bitching about the actual guitarist but the girls. have you watched the whole video?
+Edgar Fattori I am not saying it was fake. Haters are. I adore these girls and I know they don't need to fake anything.
Wow awesome ... 🤘💥🔥
The Kami band really killed it 🔥
look at the KamiBand members ..dang all of them are having so much fun just look at everyone from SU ,Yui, Moa and finally Rob they just enjoying the opportunity to jam together. Nice show.
Old school metal icon playing along side the new generation of metal. How can you not love this?
she looks thrilled to be singing with him, who wouldn't be!
That band is tight AF. Really badass.
Kawaii Level: Devastation. I could watch this once an hour until I die and be happy.
Kawaii is just their natural state, but add metal to it, and it amplifies it. Singing Judas Priest songs with Rob Halford - I don't think it gets any more metal than that.
I will have this stuck in my head for the rest of the day, and that's a good thing!
im a 60 years old,well known musician,and i will not promote myself,but got to say that i dont understand all that arguing of ,,metalheads,times have changed and now its all about having fun-and it is good,clean fun.not more -not less.dont take it too serious.its a good thing when young people pay respect to older musicians.
Que bueno que genios como Hallford reconozcan a los más chicos que son quienes los reconocen como sus maestros . Así el Metal nunca va a morir .
Cierto, lastimozamente ya esta muriendo, por lomenos yo a mis casi 40 asi lo veo, hoy puropop regueton y cosas asi, pongo algo ligero y se molestan
@@robertolopezcaste9435
No es que esté muriendo, si no que lo comercial opaca a lo under o demás que se está adentrando en el Mundo musical.
Y, mira, no es del todo malo. Tienes a grandes exponentes en lo comercial que lo están rompiendo, acá un gran ejemplo. Es malo decirlo así pero, aunque Babymetal sea comercial también son extremadamente buenos.
Esta música nunca morirá. No es llamarada de petate como los reguetoneros muy pronto se acaban
@@robertolopezcaste9435 el rock y metal nunca muere pero sigue reconociendo los artistas 60 y 70 80 aún se escucha
Amazing! Rob, the old man, sings high tones more easily than young girl.
"Metal God" isn't just only a name. he deserves everyone to call him the Metal God!
This was so fun to watch in 2023 been a Judas fan since 82🤘
Love to see Su with genuine emotion!! She's having fun!
In an interview he said something to the effect of "metal is about passion, being authentic, going hard and not giving a fuck when people don't like it. Babymetal is that in a nutshell, part of the new generation advancing what metal's all about."
Gotta love Rob rockin the Deadpool jacket🤘🏻❤️🖤🤘🏻
Halford's been Rocking Japan since the 70s
Great stuff. if this gets younger folks into classic metal bands and gets others into the Japanese metal scene, then how can anyone complain?
ついにここまで来たか、という気がする
メタル者誰もが夢見るロブ・ハルフォードとの競演だなんて
あの娘たちはどこまで登り詰めるか想像つかないね
She said it’s the painkirrer
Actually very impressed . She has a voice to suit duet with Rob . Not many people get to rock out with priest in stage good job
As a Metalhead my self, i feast on all of your sweet, salty tears.
Keep hating !
More like you're a forever alone idiot, crying in some corner and all the tears you taste is just yours. Quite sad and pathetic really.
+CodeVeronicaX whatever edgelord.
+CodeVeronicaX Says the loser talking shit to another stranger in a corner of the internet. Even more sad and pathetic
Scavenger of human sorrow.
Thank you for proving my point that you're an completely lost idiot. Goodbye.
That was fucking amazing.
Sure was! Looks like Yui has found another calling too! She looked more confident up there than Moa! I thought for sure it'd be the other way around.
+Bohnzeppelin It actually looks like Moa is more confident. Yui looks kind of awkward.
I really hope we see more guitar playing from them in the future. That will be the final sign that they have broken the J-pop idol mold and have become something unique.
The girls do not actually play the instruments, they're just air playing.
+Trey2345 Reality sucks that bad for you huh...here, let me help you with that...they're taking lessons. Feel better now?
I just went to Monterrey Metalfest yesterday, i loved so much the Judas Priest show, was amazing, thanks for everything Rob Halford Monterrey loves you!
