I had tears the first time I watched the lyric video. So you can imagine the waterworks when I watched and listened to this rendition. If you look at just the lyrics, this is supposed to be a happy and uplifting song. No matter how dark the times are right now, the sky will be illuminated by a rainbow of colors tomorrow. Just smile.
MOA stated in a recent interview that they had been recording this song for over five years. That is, when YUI was present in BABYMETAL. The three white cape girls in the middle of the song are trying their best to be cute and symbolize BABYMETAL at that time!
2:33 SAME reaction by me and probably a million+ other BABYMETAL fans! 3:12 This gives my cold dark grumpy heart so much warm feelings EVERY time I see it!🤘🦊🤘
Thanks from Japan 有難う💛。What I can say now is ... Thank you BABYMETAL. And thank you Koba for your serendipity. You certainly discovered something amazing and sacred for us 13 years ago.
It is not just a beautiful song. I think it's a song about how there are a lot of sad and painful things happening right now, but let's have hope and make a bright rainbow-coloured future. As SU-METAL was born in Hiroshima, some people interpret the song as a song about the sadness of the atomic bombing. In the world, wars and conflicts are still going on. For the people in those countries and regions, the sad events that happen before their eyes will be no different from Ragnarok, Armageddon... the end of the world.
Su-metal actually said the song is an uplifting light song. She doesn't reference the lyrics to her home town. It was only the audience reaction to the lyric video that made her realize how people are interpreting it, hence the rendition we get here that is full of emotion. That's why in the original Monochrome studio recording lacks emotion as she had looked at the song in a different way. If you only look at the lyrics and not reference the lyric video, it's actually an uplifting song about capturing the precious moments of the present before they are gone tomorrow. And no matter how dark the times it is now, there will be a rainbow tomorrow.
@@Codametal Of course, she did not write the lyrics, so it would not be her own experience. The person who wrote the lyrics did not know what she wanted to portray. There are many possible interpretations. When I first heard the song, I interpreted it as a song about the despair of lost love.
@@Codametal You're correct that the lyrics don't explicitly reference the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and that Su interpreted it as an uplifting song. It is. But I disagree with your assertion that the studio version lacks emotion. Also, if you only look at the lyrics, the song does have a significant melancholy element with the references to Ragnarok, freezing rain, and whatnot. Su conveyed that emotionally even in the studio version. But the driving message of the song is indeed an uplifting one of hope and together making the world a better place.
Las 3 niñas de blanco son las ex sakura gakuin 2021 y no olvidemos que babymetal comenzó siendo un sub grupo de sakura gakuin de Japón y saludos desde Lima Perú
Thanks for watching BM. This rendition was powerfully beautiful and soulful. You really need to listen to the song with headphones because you can hear (and feel) the exact nuances of her voice and crackling. Its a wonderful experience. Just fyi, the artists have the option of recording up to 3 takes and selecting one to use. And they usually do 2 songs. So expect another BM song probably next week. And some triva: The studio track for Monochrome was recorded 5 years ago.
