@@Jonas_S_ Sorry about that, Jonas, turns out i wasn't here.😆 Have a great Christmas my fellow Maidiac & first high disciple of the "Church of the Latter Day Maids".🌲☃️
Yeah, arguably the most impressive thing about this band is that they have so much talent yet no egos among them. When it comes to solos and bits where they get to show off, they’re happier for each other than they are for themselves.
Did you say Band-Maid series? WOOT! Madiacs assemble! Get this man some more subs! Rock on, Lion. Three down, only about 130 more songs to go... no... I'm not remotely kidding with that figure. I hope you're at this for a good long while! The Maids never cease to amaze!
Well, you're setting a good pace. I've just watched your first two videos on B-M and immediately the next one pops up. :) There's nothing better than seeing a band having genuine fun doing what they do, right? 🔥🤘🏻And that's something that characterizes these amazing ladies, along with a few other things that I'm sure you'll soon discover for yourself. ... You don't know it yet, but the good Roger has pulled you into something that you can't get out of so easily and don't want to in the end. 🤭 Greetings from Germany and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas time. ✌🏻 ___________________ 「 _"完璧なんてありえない" / Perfection?

BAND-MAID has on ongoing feud with their arch nemesis, BAND-MAIKO, which are just as good. Definitely check out Secret MAIKO Lips (MV) and Gion-cho (MV).
I hope you get to see them live. They are awesome! I have seen them in Houston, twice in Dallas, front row at Welcome To Rockville in Daytona, and Atlanta. Surely your subscriptions will grow when reacting to Band-Maid, as well as other Japanese rock and metal bands.

I’d suggest moving to more current material now, like “Hate?” live, or the music videos “From Now On” (an instrumental), and “Forbidden Tale” (their newest release from their 2024 album Epic Narratives). Oh, and as I recommended in another video, the dual-song live video of “Manners” and “Black Hole”. You’ve seen the Manners video but the live has a great extended intro, and Black Hole is… well, you’ll see!
They have a serious core old rock boomer following but these days they have student cover bands in Indonesia, the Philippines and mainland China. Often kids with little rock background. Or who just cover the classics and then find bandmaid who are just like themselves.
2 days and 3 reactions 😂. Someone is falling hard down the pigeon hole. Enjoy the ride brother. Like that famous movie qoute said (maybe) "If you play them, we will come" and here we are. New sub. BM❤💙
Band Maid is: MIKU (mee-koo) Rhythm guitar and backing vocals. She is the band’s founder, writes the lyrics and the band’s main spokesperson. She is called “the little Pigeon”. SAIKI (sigh-kee) Lead vocals and front man. “The Ice Queen”. (She’s also the team mom). KANAMI (kah-nah-mee) Lead guitar. A classically trained musician, she composes and arranges all the music. “Mincho” MISA (mee-sah) Bass. The band’s secret weapon. Most bassists don’t stand out. She does. “The Barefoot Assassin”. AKANE (ah-kah-neh) The smiling drummer is “The Gorilla” and she is the other half of one of the best rhythm sections anywhere. (Watch for Misa the bassist to walk to or turn towards the drum set, make eye contact and lock up tighter at some point in virtually every live video they’ve done).
Welcome to Band-Maid, Master Lion! The pigeon hole contains just one outstanding song / video after another. As MAIDiacs, we can immediately tell that you totally get it. As do all of us. This miracle band just never ceases to amaze! Here’s the tip off that tells us you’re going to be an insta-MAIDiac. It’s some variation of this: “Oh my God! Where has THIS been all my life???” I’ve just finished my one year anniversary as a MAIDiac. My journey with Band-Maid started December 19th, 2023 with the OMV for THRILL. You, sir, are in for one helluva rocking ride! If you are unsure of your status as a new MAIDiac, here’s the prescription: Just take in any three of these videos and call me in the morning: THRILL (OMV) The Non-Fiction Days (OMV) REAL EXISTENCE (live) HATE? (live) PUZZLE (live or acoustic) SHAMBLES (OMV) Don’t you tell ME (live) From Now On (OMV) Turn Me On (live) Influencer (OMV) UNLEASH (OMV) Enjoy the journey! It’s an amazing ride!
Lion - You’re experiencing the start of a wonderful new rock journey! The pigeon is casting her magic spell on you. I believe you ready for next face melt song. You need to listen to “Hate?” From thier 10th Anniversary Yokohama concert. Yes you’re 11 years behind so you have about 120+ songs to listen to…all bangers. 🤘🕊️🦍🥷👸🏻👀PO!
Lion, if you like a great bass and drum solo interaction, I have great one. There is a live video by Band-Maid on UA-cam recently titled BAND-MAID "Honkai" SPIN-OFF. While the song itself is a proper rock banger, it is slightly over-shallowed by the incredible introduction to the song by MISA, the bassist, and Akane, the drummer. You will want to play the intro over, and over, and over again.
I personally feel the live shows are a bucket list item. In 35years of listening to all sorts of music I have never wanted to see a band more live than band-Maid.
This song and video made me a true Madiac and confirmed my love for Akane. My only complaint of your reaction is the volume level on the video needs to be louder! I'm going to recommend the official live videos for Play, Don't You Tell Me, Puzzle, Hate?, Onset, and Real Existence; and the OMVs for Daydreaming Dice, Protect You and Bubble.
Lion, now it's time to react to a couple of their "instrumentals'. The two best ones to react to are "Onset", the official live music video and "From Now On", the official music video. There are also some instrumental versions of a few of their songs with lyrics. The "white room" videos are on the Band-Maid UA-cam channel. It's amazing on those "white room" versions of how well the songs are musically composed without the lyrics.
Master Lion: To echo Master Hallisey here, ONSET (live) is a perfect “10.” The OMV for From Now On is totally off the scale. It’s jaw-dropping. It’s simply exquisite.
Sorry, I can see how enthusiastic and appreciative of them you are and I'd love to watch your reaction in full but it's nearly impossible to listen as the volume on the video is way too low.
@@TheLionsReaction Sorry, man, I hate saying stuff like that...but turning it up to 11 will help attract more people to your clearly appreciative reactions.
@@tonygriffin_ Dont hate it bro and you dont have to be sorry, That was actually good constructive feedback, thank you. Because of this i was more concious of the volume for the one i have scheduled for tomorrow
@@TheLionsReaction Thanks,brother. I hate saying stuff like that but it was meant positively and glad you got that. I'll see you tomorrow (I subscribed to make sure)! Welcome to THE best Hard Rock band on Earth!
A reaction series to Band-Maid? I like the sound of that! The Maidiacs will be here, fore sure! 😉🤘
Yep, Got another one scheduled for tomorrow

I am happy to be welcomed in this world
They're so cute at this age!
Turn It Up!
Believe me, the next one will be louder!
Yeah, arguably the most impressive thing about this band is that they have so much talent yet no egos among them. When it comes to solos and bits where they get to show off, they’re happier for each other than they are for themselves.
Yeah you can tell there are no egos involved here by the way each song shows off the skill of each member
Did you say Band-Maid series? WOOT! Madiacs assemble! Get this man some more subs!
Rock on, Lion. Three down, only about 130 more songs to go... no... I'm not remotely kidding with that figure. I hope you're at this for a good long while! The Maids never cease to amaze!
Absolutely! a Band-maid series. Also i have playlist for them on my channel

I love that, I am going to record every first reaction to all of thier songs
Lion.Can you do us all a favor and turn your volume up?It's bandmate it should be at eleven
Got it! I will turn it way up for tomorrows video
A very important point, Bob.👍 Fortunately i'm utilising my awesome sound boost app :)

Yes sir i am
Keep going. They don’t have a bad song !
I am quickly realizing that!
Band Maid is:
MIKU (mee-koo)
Rhythm guitar and backing vocals. She is the band’s founder, writes the lyrics and the band’s main spokesperson. She is called “the little Pigeon”.

(She’s also the team mom).
KANAMI (kah-nah-mee)

Dang thats an amazing list! Time for me to get to watching!
@@TheLionsReaction It’s so hard to keep the list of recommended videos to under 10 or 12. My top ten list of Band-Maid songs has 45 entries so far.
After about 3 to 6 mos check The Non Fiction days and Don't let me Down. Early BandMaid so they didn't write thevsongs but I love them so.
Got it, and I certainly will be doing that! Thank you so much.
