[Verse 1: Sumetal]
Mirror Mirror
Listen to my wish
Who's the fairest of them all?
Mirror Mirror
Make my wish come true
Who are you in the mirror?
[Chorus: Moametal, Sumetal]
Double, double, toil and trouble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Mirror
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Mirror

What are you looking at
While living inside a mirror?
You know, you do not exist
As your real self
Beyond illusions
Leaping over even yourself
Now, here in front of you is the new world

Listen to my wish
Who's the worst of them all?

Who are you in the mirror?

[Post-Chorus: Sumetal]
I'm whispering to you
While living inside a mirror

Leaping over even yourself
Now, here in front of you is the new world

..”It is an abundance of pleasurable skill sets.” Wow nice description of as Su has called themselves, “Team Babymetal”. (Great lyric breakdown. ) 👊🏽⚡️🤘🏾🦊

Su-metal’s death glare and her singing _Mirror Mirror…_ in the beginning 100% gives off the evil queen vibes from Snow White 😂! 🤘🦊

@Icipher353 7 дней назад

I was at PIA Arena for this show, and it was an absolutely epic production. Even during the show I was thinking "This is going to look incredible on video" and it sure does. The thing that is amazing is that the way it looks on video is pretty much exactly what it looked like inside the arena with the massive video screens; it was a real spectacle. These big shows in Japan are all professionally filmed for Blu Ray release, so they always look great. There is a proggy element to this song with some funky stuff happening with time signatures that I really like, so it's one of my favourite tracks from The Other One.

@robertg9719 6 дней назад

Thanks for another great BabyMetal reaction. As usual, you nailed it. I always appreciate your comments concerning the power and beauty of Queen Su’s incredible voice. She is a remarkable force of nature. You have both mentioned that you are addicted to her voice, so I think if you reacted to her live solo performance of AKATSUKI or NO RAIN, NO RAINBOW you would lose your minds. The former is an ass-kickin’ melodic banger, while the latter is the most beautiful rock ballad you will ever hear. Both are designed to showcase her incredible voice, and she looks fantastic wearing a cape. Both feature awesome guitar solos by the Kami Band and great Su-Metal death stares at the end. I look forward to seeing one or both of those epic performances among your future BabyMetal reactions. AKATSUKI (Live at Budokan Black Night) NO RAIN, NO RAINBOW (Live in Japan)

⚡ 💕 / 🪞 To quote Su talking about 'Mirror Mirror' in the funnytoss translation of PMC magazine vol.27: "It sounds poppy at first, but it’s also somewhat distorted. The rhythm of the odd time signature is what creates that sensation. The lyrics explore the theme of whether or not the person you see in the mirror is your true self. On first listen, it sounds like a bright world, but in fact, you’ll find it seems slightly twisted. It’s half in Japanese and half in English, and using two languages helps express the duality of human nature. It’s quite interesting because we’ve never tried to use the two languages in this way before. I also like MOAMETAL’s part in the bridge (laughs)."

@Dragonstar-Metal 7 дней назад

I like how when the lighting is red, the lyrics are in English, and the music is harsh, almost industrial sounding. When the lighting turns white/blue, then the lyrics are in Japanese, and the music is a lot lighter. Mirror Mirror really showcases the duality of BABYMETAL. 🤘🦊🤘

Nice reaction! I am a BABYMETAL and SU-METAL addict from 2018 to present!🤘🦊🪞🪞

@Grington300 8 дней назад

Another excellent reaction and analysis, thank you.🦊🤘You left nothing for me to try to explain with the lyrics and the meaning. I forget exactly how you worded it, but I agree, the world is so much better with Su-metal singing in it. The video was filmed at the PIA Arena Black and Clear Nights and if you look closely you might see that whenever it goes into split screen or uses mirror images they are taken from both nights (Black Night the costumes did not have the reflective iridescent layer they were wearing on Clear Night - and Black Night Momometal did not have her mic yet, Clear Night was her first as an official member and finally with her own headset mic). The visuals on the big screens behind them were from the official lyric video they released before the concerts as well and those visuals also beautifully help to illustrate the meaning of the song.

@martinmetal7481 8 дней назад

Great reaction and analysis of the song the album this is from shows just how great Su's vocals are it really showing her talent 😁🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼

@jimnusbaum3589 8 дней назад

Thanks so much for the reaction. I feel the same way about Su's voice. I am totally addicted. I have seen a number of vocal coaches analyze her voice and I think a couple have had some insights into the way she produces the open vowels so prevalent in the Japanese language and her ability to vary the "power" of her voice while maintaining the correct pitch. She has millions of devoted followers, me included. I've got a couple other reactions in your queue that demonstrate her incredible versatility - Shanti Shanti Shanti, which has her singing in an Indian style and it is incredible what she can do with her voice. Also BxMxC where she does metal rap in Japanese. You will find her doing so many different styles so perfectly - from the full Kawaii of Gimme Chocolate (which you still haven't done and is their biggest RU-vid hit) or Doki Doki Morning to full on metal in something like Distortion or Latin metal in Night Night Burn or middle eastern metal in Metalizm, etc., etc. I think she literally can sing about anything well.

@jimnusbaum3589 8 дней назад

I'll be interested to see how you like the real kawaii stuff like Gimme Chocolate, Doki Doki Morning (their very first song), Catch Me If You Can, Awadama Fever, Uki Uki Midnight, etc. I actually thought you might not like that stuff but you like IINE so I think you will probably like the other earlier kawaii songs.

@jimnusbaum3589 8 дней назад

Listening through this again I was struck by Asaf saying that he could be convinced that Su's voice was not entirely human. Part of that is the almost complete lack of vibrato in her singing voice. She can do vibrato very beautifully (Karate live at Download 2016 is an example) but she just doesn't. That can make her voice sound almost artificial. That was one of the things that got some shade thrown at them in the beginning was that Su was lip synching to a processed track and not actually singing because no way a girl could sing like that.

@renoslash1890 7 дней назад

Couldn't agree more with this.

@robote7679 7 дней назад

@@jimnusbaum3589 Fascinating. Thank the Fox God that Su once again proved her mettle and determination by singing in her exceptional, unique way.

@noelsan6369 7 дней назад

I agree with you, from the BABYMETAL album to BABYMETAL-the other one, I have never heard a BABYMETAL song that I think is bad, I like them all. One thing that makes i still listen to them is the different musical sensation in each song on the album.

@road-runner 8 дней назад

Nice one, thanks! "Mirror Mirror" is probably my favorite song from The Other ONE album. I absolutely enjoy the prog metal mixed with metalcore, the hardcore breakdown and that very, very BABYMETAL chorus. Also very fan of the pre-chorus (where they quote Shakespeare's MacBeth) and the modulation they did there. Su-metal commented this about "Mirror Mirror": "it talks about how other people can see you, but you can only see yourself in a mirror, and that may not be your true self - yet ultimately, you’re the only one that truly discerns what you really look like. So in the end, it’s like asking yourself who you really are." 🤘‍🦊

@kitkat6407 8 дней назад

Excellent reaction! Su is too beautiful here.

@robote7679 7 дней назад

As always an enjoyable and thought provoking reaction. Really enjoy the back and forth you two have on what you think is going on. Edifying and enjoyable. Not a bad combo. I can't imagine that anyone who has taken the time to seriously listen to Babymetal has not pondered the magic of Su's voice. Babymetal have now sustaiined, matured and evolved for 14 years. The level of consistent excellence they've maintained over that time is impressive to say the least. All that in consideration to the serious listener it always comes back to Su's ineffable voice. Such magic and mystery it contains. I've loved music ever since I was a little kid...a long time ago. But in all that listening no voice has affected me in the way Su's has. Every time I hear her I'm mesmerized. Thanks as always for maintaining the high bar you've set for your reactions.

@jimnusbaum3589 7 дней назад

Kate Bush is the only other singer who has captured me like Su. There are some female African and Korean vocalists who come close but none have Su's versatility.

@thenormalman3409 6 дней назад

Nice reaction.. this song is very cool

@Slytherkins 8 дней назад

Challenging illusion is sort a of theme in this album. Really like both this song and the album as a whole. Nice reaction. 🤘🦊🤘

@Ryujin170 8 дней назад

I love this song. This is Ryu-metals best song for them. Up to this point Ryu wrote some of their less rated songs, (Meta Taro, Elavator girl, Oh! Majini, and BBAB) but more recently he's been writing well rated songs like this. He also co-wrote Metalizm and the Legend with Megmetal and Metali! with Norimetal. As for Su being in the same catergory as Ozzy Ozbourne, yes!, I thought this from day one. They are both human sirens. Ozzy is more an air raid siren, and su is more a house alarm (and i mean that in a clumsy but most complimentary way possible😄) They both have soulful and unpretentious vocal styles. Neither of them set out to be metal singers, but were destined to be the Prince of Darkness and the Metal Queen. Imagine a colab!

Nice reaction!

@hoges412 7 дней назад

Hi guys, always pleased to see you react to Babymetal! Mirror Mirror took a while to grow on me, until I saw them perform it live in Sydney last year. It was another belter which got the audience hyped. The show was of course a stripped down production compared to their Japanese mega concerts we see online, however the smaller stage meant we had a clear view of the Kami band playing. They tend to be confined to the background at the bigger arenas. On a production level alone, seeing one of those epic Japanese shows is on my bucket/ wish list. Just a quick technical note, your voice level seems to be somewhat low on this reaction compared to the music. I had to keep turning you up for the commentary, and then when I clicked on another video without adjusting the volume, I momentarily deafened my neighbours, lol,😊

Welcome back to the Foxhole and BabyMetal's journey 🦊🤘🔥 Cool to see you reacting to this song, its even one of SuMetal's favorite from this album. I like the progressive metal elements, that heavy breakdown and the existential questions. There's also a reference to Macbeth in the lyrics besides the obvious lines famously known by Snow White tale. Here's some official info: Mirror Mirror (MIRROR) _Mirror, mirror on the wall...this song embodies a parallel world where the world inside the mirror and the world of reality go back and forth._ _Is what you see in the mirror your true self or the self you wish to be?_ Mirror Mirror was the 5th and final single they released from this new album called The Other One released in March showing us a new sound and a BM side we've never seen before with this metalverse. This was at BabyMetal Begins - The Other One - Clear Night live at PIA Arena MM, Yokohama, last April 2nd with MomoMetal debuting as the new official third member, she was one of the avengers since 2019 and we're all proud of her, but don't think this as a replacement of YuiMetal, she's like a new incorporation to this group for this new lore and metalverse era. Also the BM logo change, it doesn't have the skull and the heart in the B letter, as well there's only three feathers in the logo unlike four prior to this. The Western Kami Band was in charge of these shows but the audio in the official MV is studio album sound. They used to perform this at the World Tour 2023 but they're not doing it during latest live shows. I highly suggest you to check it out "METALIZM", "MAYA", Believing and every song from this new album. You can find some clips safe to react at "For The Fox God", "The Foxhole" and "NLMetal". See you next time!🦊🤘🪞

If you want to see more intros and hear more crowd participation etc it may be better to avoid "official" videos (unless "live") which can also be putting studio sound over the performance. Great reaction to an awesome track anyway - one of my many favourites :D

@jimnusbaum3589 6 дней назад

I've requested a few music videos along with the live performances. These guys are film makers so I thought they might appreciate some of the music videos. I think this is a pretty good one although I prefer seeing the full choreo from the actual live performances at PIA.

@miceandmen 7 дней назад

Not surprisingly not entirely my cup of tea, but still a great reaction. :)

It's not a cult. 🤨🤪🤪

@ksbrst2010 8 дней назад

It is interesting how fast this title dropped. When it appeared it was like Yes they still can play as hard, but then they dropped it out of the Setlist for Titles like Synchopation or Brand New Day.

@rickwagner- 8 дней назад

Syncopation has only been performed eight times since THE OTHER ONE album was released. Mirror Mirror has been performed twenty-five times.
