This song was written by the smallest one, bass player Haraguchi-san, bacause she needed a relaxing song to meditate to. That's a rock star. H-san also has her own clothing line, Chanqoo. Check it out.
This is the most Realistic video I've ever seen. This is my happy place. Bad day at work I can play this and loose my self to the aggression and it chills me right out.
I have the BluRay of that gig (NEMOPHILA 4th Anniversary - Rizing NEMO - Tokyo garden Theater, July 2023) and you'll be pleased to know that Mayu could indeed comfortably keep singing the final 6 songs after that, which included 3 of their biggest ever bangers. She's an absolute marvel!
Both of you did an *awesome* reaction together! Thank you! 😊 🙏 And thank you, "mum", for introducing your amazing daughter to _amazing_ music, which genre ever. 😊 🙏
Zen is about centering yourself through meditation despite the circumstances. Novices are expected to concentrate even when struck with a bamboo rod. This is why it was embraced by the samurai class. Centering oneself even in the chaos of battle was important.
Nice setup. Love the look on her face when Mayu's vocals kicked in. 😂😂. A brutally heavy song, and a ballad so far. Most of their catalog is in between the 2.
she spoke well actually))) after this gig there was an interview with all ladies - frankly, they didn't look exhausted at all))) working out must have paid off during concerts)))
LOL, Nice prep mom. Love it. Alwys awesome to share music with our kids. Hopefully Phoenix will be back again. Great reaction (As always). And yes turn the crap on the radio off. She's on the right path. Give her a Lovebites and Hanabie initiation.
Mayu actually has a very beautiful clean voice, and she can seemlessly go from scream to clean live within the same song. To me it can come off as this wonderful mix of Joan Jett and Pat Benatar, especially when she adds some grit to it and shes singing more relaxed in Japanese (though her English has improved drastically since the early cover days and shes more confident now singing in English).
"This is my zen": There you go.... Like "mum" said, everybody has their own way to "zen". 😁 All that matters is to get into your _core being_ . If Nemophila can help: even the better. 😊
Awesome reaction!! It's great to see a mother and daughter bonding like this sharing great experiences!! Inspires us !! Nemophila is pure fire 🔥 love them ❤
Nice to have some shared taste there :) A good band first contact reaction for both of you in one reaction might be.....Maximum The Hormone!!!! Nemophila's drummer and Band-Maid's drummer were both inspired to take up / focus on drums by the drummer of Maximum The Hormone. Hanabie begun as a cover band of Maximum The Hormone. So basically they are Japanese metal royalty. Maximum The Hormone - ALIEN mv if you like that then Maximum The Hormone - Yoshu Fukushu mv is a good follow up.
I eagerly await you diving deeper into Nemophila. For something different from both Zen and Odyssey, you might try 'Night Flight'. It's got something of a retro 80's exercise video vibe, and was actually the first Nemophila song I heard.
Another great reaction Ladies... Can you imagine how well they would knock "Under pressure" by ZZ right out of the park. Check out their cover of Sugar by System of a down.. it's awesome 👍 Thanks again for the reaction, looking forward to more.. Best wishes as always from France 🤘🫰🇨🇵
Their first heavy tune with harsh screams was Dissension. It demonstrates Mayu's superpower of INSTANT switching from harsh vocals to sweet soaring cleans. There are a couple of techniques for harsh screams. Do it wrong and you will at some point wreck your voice. Do it right and you can maintain a healthy voice for a long time. Mayu clearly has a good vocal coach who understands this. Revive is another tune that combines harsh and clean vocals back to back. And although they are a great live band, I recommend their official music videos of these. They are so beautifully done and fun, they are not to be missed.
Nice. Glad you both liked it. Zen is one of my favorites. BTW - Mayo can talk and sing after this just fine. Something you can hear in other Nemophila songs. Its a matter of technique. This scream is NOT made with the vocal cords. It would destroy them. There are other soft parts in the vocal tract and the mouth that can make growls and screams. Have you heard someone talk like Donald Duck? That is made by pressing the back of the tongue to the roof.
Cómo la primera banda japonesa que sinceramente me gusta, mis respetos, fantástica cantante y equipo! No es cualquier cantante,es una metalera clásica, así muy pocos hay! No tiene pierde la banda,es hermosa,! Me gustó mucho sus comentarios,les diré que la cantante tiene muchas voces y tonos, todo lo puede, absolutamente cualquier género! Ya verán!❤
You should check out some other Nemophila songs and you would see she can not only speak after screaming she can sing too. She goes back and forth between screaming and singing within songs quite a lot.
Yay, my favorite song by my favorite japanese band by my favorite reactor, again! 😁And with a special guest this time, love your vibe together, not too different from me and my mom. I agree with Phoenix, Bon Jovi isn't tame, sure Jon might sound like a sweetheart compared to Mayu when she's in angry cat mode, but I have always liked Bon Jovi. Well, up until when they started to sound like a boy band, I think "These Days" is the name of that album. Nemophila's song Odyssey kinda reminds me of an old Bon Jovi style ballad. I received Nemophila's new album, Evolve, in the mail today, it's great! That album, and The Warning's "Keep Me Fed" might be my favorite two album releases this year, so far at least. Loved the Big Hero 6 reference there at the end 😊 But you don't have to have kids, or be a kid to watch Big Hero 6, or any of those awesome animated movies, which I love dearly 😋They are often pretty deep, and have a lot of stuff and references in them that I don't think are aimed at kids at all. My favorite movie franchise is How To Train Your Dragon, regardless of genre, animated or not. The Alien franchise is a close second, well, the first two movies at least. Speaking of Mayu, I have had my new kitten Mayu and her buddy Akira for about a week now, and they certainly keep me on my toes 😹She did sound like "angry cat Mayu" for a few days, before they got to know eachother, but now they are the best of friends. I just had to stop her from stepping on the keyboard, oh well, I guess she too wanted to write something to you.
Aww kittens! I love cats, but our dog might be too rough for them (he snatched a squirrel right off a tree in our back yard and killed it 😭) So probably no cats for us any time soon.
@@MrsRealistic Yeah, kittens are fun, right? Don't get me wrong, I love kittens and their shenanigans, and have had cats more or less my whole life, but they can be a handful, and be everywhere and nowhere at the same time 😸It's a big sigh of relief when they finally become adult cats, and you survived their kittenhood. Sure, adult cats can be a bit bonkers too, but in a more controlled and less chaotic manner. It's easier to bond with them if you have had them since they were kittens. I have never had a dog, I have always wanted one, but my parents didn't, and now I don't have the time or the money. Anywho, you do plan on letting Phoenix react to more Nemophila, right? If she wants to, of course. Well, having her in more reaction videos regardless of the artist would be cool. Hey, a stupid question maybe, I don't know how much of a gamer you are, if at all, but have you ever considered starting a gaming channel, and do playthroughs? Or maybe a movie reaction channel? 🙂I'd sub to that in a heartbeat!
@Pascal-the-Rascal nah, I'm not a gamer. That's my kids arena 😄 I'll play a Lego game with them here or there, but that's not often. We've got a bunch of videos to do this week. But we have to fix the green screen again and make it bigger. Hubby forgot to attach the bigger one to the ceiling in the office yesterday, so I might have to "jimmy-rig" it myself. Phoenix likes doing them with me and helps her come out of her shell a bit. Believe it or not, she's a bit shy. 😄
@@MrsRealistic Oh, oh well, I thought I'd ask 😁I like gaming channels myself, and I think you have a good personality for it, well, if you were a gamer that is. He forgot, huh? Well, maybe he wanted you and Phoenix to have some quality time together 😊Yeah, I'm a bit shy too, have always been, which is hard to believe when you read my long-a§§ essays, I guess. It's a lot easier for me to express myself when writing, even in english, which isn't my first language, so I like to write, maybe you can tell? 😋She seemed out of her shell in this video, you two have great chemistry, as I said, kinda reminds me of me and my mom.
@Pascal-the-Rascal I never would have guessed your first language wasn't English 😊 Phoenix was really nervous at first but I told her to just pretend no one will see it. It's strange at first because you have to talk as though you're in front of an audience... even tho you're literally only talking to a camera 😄
Great reaction. Zen is such a killer song and IMO most their songs are kick ass. This is the only song so far that Mayu actually screams and growls through whole song. Usually it is a mixture of clean voclas and scream and growl and they have quite a few songs where she does not scream at all like Odyssey which you have seen that ballad by them. Many other rocking songs they have too where she does not growl and are heavy too.Just an amazing band all the way around. Only 4 members now since Saki went solo but Hazuki their other guitarist is a amazing guitar player and shredder herself. You and your daughter should try some more of their stuff like Adabana, Amateras, Revive. Oiran Live. Oiran is their first original they recorded as a band. Some other cool rocking ones she does not growl in is Monsters,Fighter,RAITEI, Sorai. You two will for sure enjoy this amazing band.
0:45 If you wanna cry you can always watch Now I here live version, it is absolutely beatiful! 2:35 Hehe, kinda opposite 3:09 Speaking of tiny, have your daughter reacted to Hanbie yet? 😬
Yes, raising your daughter properly. Actually, Mayu was untrained when she started doing metal vocals, and after she was cautioned that she would blow out her voice, she went for some coaching.
Thanks. I hope that made you feel good about yourself. 👍 And technically they aren't all taller than I am... and definitely not taller than my daughter. But thanks for taking the time to post this and show everyone what a winner you are.
Way to go Mom. You’re doing a great job raising your daughter. You guy’s are truly awesome.
You are so kind! Thank you!
This song was written by the smallest one, bass player Haraguchi-san, bacause she needed a relaxing song to meditate to. That's a rock star. H-san also has her own clothing line, Chanqoo. Check it out.
Mayu channelling her inner pterodactyl. 🙂 You're both awesome! Thank you, ladies.
Ha ha! That's awesome!
"inner pterodactyl" 😂 Amazing! 😂 Nominee for Comment Of The Year.. 😁
This is the most Realistic video I've ever seen.
This is my happy place. Bad day at work I can play this and loose my self to the aggression and it chills me right out.
I agree, I love this song so much! But it gets me amped up, in a good way, for a work out, or to rampage clean my house 😄👍
Bring your daughter to the reactions as often as she wants to join - she is funny, she is quick-witted, and the chemistry between you two is great!
Thanks so much! She's very shy and this has been a big step for her. Everyone (except one person🙄) has been really kind!
Nemophila is the best try their song Adabana or Ama Te Ras next!
Oh my goodness... Two more masterpieces... 😊
I have the BluRay of that gig (NEMOPHILA 4th Anniversary - Rizing NEMO - Tokyo garden Theater, July 2023) and you'll be pleased to know that Mayu could indeed comfortably keep singing the final 6 songs after that, which included 3 of their biggest ever bangers. She's an absolute marvel!
@@booradley4891 That's so epic! I love her!
@@MrsRealistic You have good taste! 👍🤘
Check out 1:49 and look at how Zen Tamu is. She's basically meditating behind the drum set^^
@@KaBeeM I noticed that... it's so cool!
Have a go at one of my favorite Nemophila early tracks called "MONSTERS". Its not scary. Just rock music heaven.
I second this.
Both of you did an *awesome* reaction together! Thank you! 😊 🙏
And thank you, "mum", for introducing your amazing daughter to _amazing_ music, which genre ever. 😊 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!
This is HARD! And y'all are awesome...
Thank you! Yeah this is one of my new favorite songs!
@@MrsRealistic if this is your style, try Oiran live (most recent), Raitei (OMV), Rise. For something a bit more Jovi/Crue, try Change the World live.
Zen is about centering yourself through meditation despite the circumstances. Novices are expected to concentrate even when struck with a bamboo rod. This is why it was embraced by the samurai class. Centering oneself even in the chaos of battle was important.
That makes so much sense!!
Nice setup. Love the look on her face when Mayu's vocals kicked in. 😂😂. A brutally heavy song, and a ballad so far. Most of their catalog is in between the 2.
My opinion is: you guys are awesome! Thanks for sharing the fun!
😄 Thank you!!
Great band and track and great reaction .Mayu has perfected her voice and does a whole concert with out problems after there all amazing .
It's really crazy and unique!
she spoke well actually))) after this gig there was an interview with all ladies - frankly, they didn't look exhausted at all))) working out must have paid off during concerts)))
You're probably right!
Mayu (Nemophila) and Yukina from Hanabie are the only 2 scream style singers that I like
They kick butt!!
@@MrsRealistic Regan from SAISEIGA is another amazing female growler, checkout their song Jumble.
Try Dragdown singer too.
Nice to meet your daughter. Looks like you have a great relationship. 😊
She's a joy honestly. Thankfully she's not like I was at 16 😄👍
@@MrsRealistic 😆😆
LOL, Nice prep mom. Love it. Alwys awesome to share music with our kids. Hopefully Phoenix will be back again. Great reaction (As always). And yes turn the crap on the radio off. She's on the right path. Give her a Lovebites and Hanabie initiation.

Another song for you - Nemophila - Ama-Te-Ras.. just insane!!
I can fall asleep to this... or rock out. This is my zen.
I most DEFINITELY rock out! 🤘
"This is my zen": There you go.... Like "mum" said, everybody has their own way to "zen". 😁 All that matters is to get into your _core being_ . If Nemophila can help: even the better. 😊
Awesome reaction!! It's great to see a mother and daughter bonding like this sharing great experiences!! Inspires us !! Nemophila is pure fire 🔥 love them ❤
Thank you! I agree.. they're amazing!
Mayu, besides kicking butt as a singer, and being able to speak after this; is also the mother of a young son.
Check out Nemophila's songs DISSENSION, RISE, REVIVE, & ADABANA.
ALL LEGIT BANGERS!!!!
Nice to have some shared taste there :)
A good band first contact reaction for both of you in one reaction might be.....Maximum The Hormone!!!!

Maximum The Hormone - Yoshu Fukushu mv
is a good follow up.
Thank god for good parents
Aww thanks! 😊🙏
I eagerly await you diving deeper into Nemophila. For something different from both Zen and Odyssey, you might try 'Night Flight'. It's got something of a retro 80's exercise video vibe, and was actually the first Nemophila song I heard.
Maybe you should also tell her that the drummer and the singer are also mums :)
Tamu (dr) has 2 and Mayu (v.) has one.
Tamu has roadies. They look like her kids because she made them herself. She's a smart businesswoman. 😊
Badass mamas!!
@MegaHogzilla 🤣👍
Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san Haraguchi-san! "Hai"
Another great reaction Ladies...
Can you imagine how well they would knock "Under pressure" by ZZ right out of the park. Check out their cover of Sugar by System of a down.. it's awesome 👍

Thank you for that info! It must take a lot of practice! I've always thought the same thing about the lead singer from AC/DC!
Now show her the song Life like when you saw a ballad after❤️
Bon Jovi just got relegated to the elevator.
🤣 👍

No tiene pierde la banda,es hermosa,! Me gustó mucho sus comentarios,les diré que la cantante tiene muchas voces y tonos, todo lo puede, absolutamente cualquier género! Ya verán!❤
for me the song resonates as a heavy-paced 'mantra' leading into a final zen moment.
anyway, great reaction you two!
You should check out some other Nemophila songs and you would see she can not only speak after screaming she can sing too. She goes back and forth between screaming and singing within songs quite a lot.
I did Odyssey and their cover of Bon Jovi...I look forward to hearing a lot more!
