BABYMETAL - MONOCHROME REACTION!! 

Thanks again from Japan 有難う💛。This is a compilation of last year's two shows. I witnessed both performance at the venues and shouted the ♪ oh oh ohoo ♪ part with my loudest voice holding my phone. What a bliss! The flying drones with cameras that enabled the beautiful aerial cinematograph were manipulated by experts including Ms. Shiraishi. She is a member of team Japan for World Drone Racing Championship. As you may know Western (American) Kami Band played in the girls' back. They have supported BABYMETAL's 2023 world tour and this year as well. Japanese fans always appreciate the devoted support like knights by Chris, CJ, Anthony and Clint (Ryan replaced in USA). They are really unsung heroes.

'They could surprise us every time...' True!! Great reaction btw. Thanks!

Great reaction! The song "Monochrome" has very positive lyrics but many people cry🦊😭

I´m guilty! Heard of this band many years before but always thought "well. this Japanese k-pop style wanna be metal is not my thing" Then I heard them with EC and decided to dive deeper into the fox hole and I´m blown away! Such a great band , and they have a really unique style.

Great reaction! When it comes to BABYMETAL songs, every song is different, especially with the older ones where each song incorporates a mix of metal/rock genres, yet they all feel like a "BABYMETAL" song. And on the Metal Galaxy album (2019) they incorporate some styles of music from different countries! 🤘🦊🤘

From Dusk till Dawn is a great song. Great Visuals.

I hope you guys will react to more Babymetal! The PIA arena live videos are in my opinion the best ones yet. I would suggest listening to Megitsune live at PIA, and also the three different version of Headbanger, Su-metal's version, Moa-metal ver and Momo-metal ver. Momo honestly fits so well into this band with her growls. You probably didn't notice it was her growling several parts of Ratatata 😊

I saw Babymetal in Tokyo and when I tell you that I have never had such energy from a concert. The mix of j-pop and heavy metal in a crowd situation is the best experience I can ever tell you to see live.

Glad y'all enjoyed! Yeah Babymetal is designed to be a full experience, almost like a movie at these big event shows with wild productions. A lot of the songs are built with catch ly choruses and crowd chants to sing, along with parts where the crowd copies the choreo. Point being, you feel like you performed with them, and not just that you "watched a show" Ite pretty powerful! Im 47, my wife and I saw them twice in Texas last year and we were very close to the stage one show and their actual stage presence is crazy! Easily unmatched by any group I've seen live in my life. They bring insane relentless energy with their mezmerizing in sync dancing and Su's singing is out of this world! Truly a marvel!

Great song live 👍 i have experienced Monochrome live 3 times . Once at Wembley Arena and twice The Roundhouse back to back shows in London . A emotional experience but a positive one . No 2 songs the same and different courography for each song thats around 70 songs . The stage you see them on go's up and down and there are 2 more round stages at either side and the one with the Kami band on a 3 huge screens behind them ( there are clips of another show as well to get it passed you tube copyright/ blocks ) BabyMetal Japan shows are Legendary and fans travel from all over the world ( if they can get a ticket ) to experience them . I sit patiently bank card in hand ready for next ticket lottery for my turn 😁 Megitsune there most performed song is a great song their is a version from this venue the PIA Arena 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼

Excellent reaction folks. Good points, good observations and great that you finally got to see the ladies in their "own" element. I see you've gotten a lot of comments already so I'm sure there'll be plenty of recommendations. So on that note a couple of thoughts. Babymetal have been around since 2010. With one personnel change and yeah they were literally kids. A lot but certainly not all of their older stuff does have more poppy vocals. But as they've matured their material has grown with them and the last couple of years have seen some really innovative "metal". BM have never been afraid to take chances and try new things. I look forward to following your Babymetal journey down the Foxhole. Great work!

Welcome to the Foxhole!! Your lives are going to improve a lot from now. You can't even begin to imagine what you have just discovered. Keep a very open mind and you will enjoy the best musical experiences of your life. We look forward to more reactions from you and remember: EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED. Babymetal Forever!! 🦊🦊🍅🦊

Great song,, they also made an appearance on the first take of the piano version, this song becomes more emotional 💔

Welcome back to the Foxhole and now with the new metalverse era🦊🤘🌐 Thanks for coming back with this suggestion after your RATATATA reaction which btw they just released the live version which is awesome. Monochrome is another beautiful track from latest album, it was the 2nd single released in November 2022 and there's an official lyrics video really cool if you wanna enjoy the studio album version, later in 2023 right before this concert you just saw they released the Piano Version at The First Take surprising everyone with another stunning and beautiful one off stripped down version. The lyrics got some Norse mythology reference and when the lyrics vid came out there were many theories around, later they said they were surprised about it and saying they just wanna give a hopeful song. Here's some official info: _"One of the discovered 10 parallel worlds is MONOCHROME and this 2nd pre-release digital single “Monochrome” centers around this theme. From the eyes of the children, what color were the monochrome fireworks lighting up in the night sky? This song expresses the hopeful wish on Ragnarok, which signifies doomsday in Norse mythology, twinkling across the starry skies in rainbow colors."_ This was live at BabyMetal Begins - PIA Arena MM Clear Night, Yokohama on April 2, MomoMetal first concert as an official member (she's the new official member after YuiMetal left the group in 2018), you can notice SuMetal speaking to them in the middle section and giving that recognition. They got this magical moment when performing live in every setlist they did throughout the recent World Tour 2023/2024 and they're keep rocking with this song everywhere they go. The composer behind this song is the same one behind Karate, Rondo Of Nightmare, Kagerou, the arrangement of Megitsune and also behind Believing from this same latest album, you should really not miss those songs. Next suggestion with more from this album: - MAYA live at PIA Arena MM 2023 official MV. - Divine Attack live at PIA Arena MM 2023 official MV. Like SuMetal said at the end: "Just smile".🙂 Keep enjoying BM songs and see you next time 🦊🤘🌈

Thanks for this reaction, this is a some what slower, not as harsh song, Babymetal does all kinds of music. They can do high-energy, etc. Also this was a more serious song from the latest album that was released. They also have far more happy/positive songs. To give some idea of their range, how about: BxMxC and Shanti Shanti Shanti. I would also still recommend to react to: Kingslayer the live performance in Tokyo which is on the official BMTH channel. The live is better than the album.

I'm sure others mention, but there is a live version of BmtH and BM performing Kingslayer from a few months ago, it is amazing.

My favourite live song from them is Megitsune! The crowd, the vibe, the music makes me shivering from excitement!

Nice reaction, thanks and welcome back! "Monochrome" is definitely in their "softer" side but those guitars sound incredibly low tuned and I love it. Yes, their range is really wide. Actually, I usually refer to this unique feature as "musical diversity" since they like to blend any music genre with metal. And yes, they are way better live for many reasons but you have seen here some: Su-metal's vocals, the choreo (different for each song and trying to explain the lyrics), the Kami Band playing live, all these big stage productions, etc. They also master in crowd interaction. So, always expect the unexpected and enjoy your BABYMETAL journey. 😁 🤘🦊

Great reaction friends 🔥🤘🦊🤘🔥 Trust me, the songs you've heard aren't the heaviest songs they do. Even from early on the metal maddness is at OMG level. Keep on rocking 💥🎸💥

this song is so gorgeous! discovered it last night and it's been on repeat for 24 hours now. I have to make sure I see these guys live before I die lol

More babymetal 🤘🦊

Try Headbanger live at Legend 1997 to see just how amazing they were from the start. 16yo Su and 14yo Moa/Yui absolutely killing it.

IM NOT CRYING, YOU'RE CRYING!!

👍An awesomely awesome performance. The voice of angles😇😇😇. Great reaction. 🦊🦊🦊 🖖❤ Suggest: BABYMETAL - Road of Resistance - Live in Japan (OFFICIAL)

Welcome to the Foxhole! So much to discover, so many chances to get surprised…. Could be slightly addictive listening to them! If you get a chance to see them live, don’t hesitate and embrace being part of the One.

Great reaction! Babymetal's live videos are always recommended ❤️🦊🤘

Do Gimme Chocolate with 180 million views next please!

Welcome back, good to see you with BABYMETAL again so soon.🦊 Great reaction. 'Monochrome' is a beautiful song and makes for a very welcome slowing of pace in one of their concerts - it gives everybody a chance to catch their breath for a moment ... and what a moment.🥰 Su-metal had audiences in nearly 100 concerts and 25 countries all lighting up "this dark, dark world" and illuminating the world in rainbow colours🌈 with their phones last year. That was almost prophetic when you said that perhaps BABYMETAL could surprise you every time ... the only really predictable things about BABYMETAL are that whatever song will be a top quality song, the vocals and instrumentation will be top notch, the performance and choreo will be spot on, the energy will be off the chart, the audience will be right in the moment with them - and you will be surprised at how different the song is to the one before and the one before that. Expect the unexpected - and they will still surprise you. They have about 70 songs, they cover virtually every metal genre but they will also mix and blend so many more musical styles and genres with the metal, usually when you least expect it. Some songs are good hard metal, some songs lean towards their pop roots and they do everything in between. Some songs are incredibly fast, some may be slow ballads - you won't know until they start the song - and even then they will sometimes switch it up and surprise you again. You have great suggestions for more songs - I think the song that best represents who and what they are (not that any one song can do that, but this is possibly the closest to managing) is 'Megitsune' ... and watch the live at PIA MM Arena, Clear Night (then the official video from 2013 as well if you want, that's a good MV), but BABYMETAL are best seen and heard playing live ... and you will really get to see the crowd in action in this one too.

ありがとう🦊 BABYMETAL is better live than on studio recordings, but as for Monochrome, I highly recommend seeing the official music video and the piano version of The First Take. I think each of these can be interpreted in a completely different way. 🔥🤘🦊 From🇯🇵

Feel that MAJESTIC is my description of this song.

Nice reaction.... Kitsune up 🤘🤘🤘

They cover all ranges of metal, this song is also done unplugged with 2 singers and piano and that's a great version as well. Check out Shanti Shanti, Papaya, Road to Resistance for some more upbeat songs.

Welcome to the Foxhole🤘🦊♪

Great reaction. Im a new subscriber now of this channel. Pls do more babymetal reactions.

Whichever songs you check out, you should go with Live. They're SO GOOD live. Even on spotify, I always go with the Live versions over studio versions. Su is the best live vocalist I've ever heard. Also, for the older songs, you should check out their older live versions. For the newer songs, go with the latest possible release, though.

Welcome to one of the best unique and constantly surprising live bands that bristle with energy usually - for about 14 years now. Good reaction!

Hi from Ireland, what a great song to choose, absolutely megitsune at pia and road of resistance at pia, then the rest are all epic, just that the pia arena concert was I think one if the best

When Metallica saw them live they said they were astonished at their awesomeness. You really need to see the full blown BabyMetal live experience. Here are some suggestions 1. HeadBanger - Legend of 1997 2 Road of Resistance Live in Japan 3. Pa Pa Ya feat F Hero 4. BabyMetal Death Legend of 1997 The Legend of 1997 concert was NOT in 1997, that’s the birth year of the lead singer Su Metal, she is the legend And something that will surely shock you. They performed live Pain Killer and Breaking the Law, the Judas Priest classics with Judas Priest leader singer Rob Halford

Awesome guys, great reaction! Babymetal's stylistic range is pretty insane, and you will find many genre and cultural influences across their discography. Further more, their style has also progressed over the 14 years they've been active. You'll see a much heavier juxtaposition of ultra brutal music with their child-like adorabless when they were kids to a more mature, but cute sassiness of today as adults in their mid-20s (Babymetal started when they were 12/11). _Suggestions:_ Epic Battle Anthem: *Road of Resistance (Pia Arena MM)* - Same show as Monochrome. Egyption EDM Metal?: *Metalizm (Pia Arena MM)* - Same show as Monochrome. Fun and Groovy: *Metali (Official Live),* ft. Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine doing his thing on guitar solos. Heavy and Adorable: *Catch Me If You Can (Budokan 2014)* - Slipknot...but cute. For the WTF factor: *iine! (Official MV)* - Their 2nd song ever from ~2011. Looking back, this song verymuch reminds me of Electric Callboy, but different. FOR THE FOX GOD: *BABYMETAL DEATH (Legend 1997)* - This is how a metal queen closes her sweet 16th (Dec 2013 show). Look forward to more Babymetal! 🤘🦊

There's much more to discover in this song than the great text and melody ;-) - The sound went from minor to major........... - In the background on the video wall the colors went from black/white to multicolor It's (for me) one of the best songs ever heard..

there is a piano version of this also on first take

For BabyMetal I would call this a ballad and they do have a really cool Piano version of the song on YT. There are way heavier songs in their newer catalog. Mirror Mirror or Maya come to mind. I would also suggest if you want a truer representation of them live is to look for Fan made live videos from their concerts. In my experience their big Japanese productions are a little overproduced for my taste. While the true experience the band is much heavier sounding in the mix.

Never be surprised at how well a Babymetal song is mixed. These ladies are professionals from head to toe. Not a single detail gets by them.

You guys should react to “No Rain, No Rainbow”

Awesome song and great reaction! I've seen them live twice, and I almost exclusively listen to their live songs, they are so much more powerful and with so much feelings! Check out The One, Road of Resistance and Syncopation (all of them live of course) if you'd like, I believe you will enjoy them!

I saw that you have a reaction to the last part of All That Remains, as a fact the drummer is also with Babymetal

Do Headbanger or Metali next (live music video). Those are pure adrenaline

Nice reaction. Babymetal is amazing. Often you can follow what Su said when it comes to Babymetal "Don't Think, Feel". They also think a lot about their fans and getting everybody their monies worth. Including doing performances of songs from the top of the stage rigging so that the folks in the nosebleed section can get a good view. Also moving stage and bridges that go out into the crowd. These ladies know how to give the fans more than a show. They give you an experience. The foxhole is deep and full of surprises

Live > studio but always listen to studio version after watching live performances to get an idea of what people got at the time and what they ended up getting live

Babymetal has a way of just pulling you in and surprising you with something, like how MIrror Mirror is simultaneously heavy and wild on the guitars and hits you in feels.

Nice reaction! Interesting compilation you used here, for the reaction... it´s "unpolished" live audio! Sounds a little bit like the audio from the Makuhari Messe concert, 2023. Ah, and with the interlude the switch to the "BABYMETAL Begins - Black Night & Clear Night", also 2023, nice! Yes, these ladies, their backing band, their whole team and their audiences are something special! With other live videos you will see some more of the band AND of the audiences. The fans as a whole are called THE ONE by the ladies. They dedicated a song to us fans 😄 I believe, at some time this day jakemuller8626, Grington300, Ganimal83 and others will provide you with much information about BABYMETAL and what it is all about 😉

Gran reaccion, les quiero avisar que salio esta mañana el video en vivo de la cancion RATATATA para que puedan reaccionar en el futuro,

🤘🦊🤘

Do the piano version of Monochrome on First Take

Babymetal -- happiest and cutest metal combined with beeing the band that have crucified most teenage girls on stage ever. Never assume anything with them, they will lure you into feeling happy and safe before they kick you in the shins and steal your soul.

Nice reaction. Every song is different and they have a huge catalogue with loads of epic performances. Just when you think you have Babymetal figured out, they will come with another surprise. Enjoy the Babymetal journey!

Babymetal Death legend 1997 🔥🦊🔥

Su is from Hiroshima. This hits differently when you realize that the "monochrome firework " she's referring to is the atomic bomb that was dropped on her hometown. 😢 [English translation:] The sky decorated in a spectrum of dreams I wanted to look at it forever Even the bright star that was shining yesterday I don't know what to say I don't know what to say Is fading away That monochrome Firework What color can we imagine the night sky? Being drenched by the rain and freezing in the night I wanted to be by your side even just for a little while The warmth I want to feel until tomorrow You don't have to say it You don't have to say it Will vanish eventually That monochrome Firework, we will Imagine the night sky in rainbow colors During the dusk of Ragnarok What are we to see No matter how long the night The morning will arrive Monochrome Firework, we will Illuminate the world in rainbow colors Just smile

Go back to Early Babymetal..when their young .very young

Babymetal - Karate live at Budokan 2021 is amazing! Should check it out!

Please do Rondo of nightmare live with mischief of the metal gods kami band intro

🦊🦊🦊

You picked one of their slowest songs and it still slaps. You have to look at their other most viewed ones. Its definitely different.

👊🏽⚡️🦊🤘🏾

🍅💀🍅 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 " Just smile "

Y one yake ionb! ❤to

Be sure to listen to the latest song "woke up" by the Japanese girl group XG, which has been appreciated overseas to the same extent as BABYMETAL.

if you are at all interested theyre going to be on a US tour in November!!!

😁😎😎🤘🤘🤘

I recommend reacting to Megitsune PIA Arena 2023, the same show as the one in the video. It's the pure essence of Babymetal

Good reaction. More Babymetal: Headbanger legend 1997 QEsOaMbNFww ; or Road of resistance live in Japan zTEYUFgLveY

Lets react more Babymetal🦊🦊🦊 live performances Love from india🇮🇳

By the way, the long ambient intro is not on the studio version or official lyric music video. They only do it, as far as I know, at their longer concerts in Japan. Either to give the girls, maybe even the band, especially the drummer, a quick break since they go hard on every song and they will do many songs. Or for stage and outfit changes. But during shorter sets like at metal festivals, they usually go from one song to the next pretty fast.🤘🦊🤘

What kind of MICs do ya'll use?

MONOCHROME FIREWORK →ATOMICBOMB (HIROSHIMA) 😱　🦊🤘

Hope you know that the song is about Hiroshima, were Su was born. You can see it at the word ragnarök and other things.

you can ask us what metal version do you want to blend? babymetal had them all. no joke. the viewer will answer it here for you. Metal-ska? Metal-latino? Dubstep-Metal? anything

Try Mirror Mirror

The most beautiful song in the world.

Babymetal is the wellspring of surprises and unexpected performances..which all to the same result - PURE JOY. 😊😊😊

I think you guys should go back in time and watch some of their songs from when they were 14 to 16 years old and move up to their mid 20's. You can really see how they matured and see how great they were when they were so young

react to ADO pls

I will never watch this video without thinking of Mikio. Rest in Peace, "little" stargazer.

Su was born in Hiroshima. Some say this song is a kinda reflection on what happened there in WW2. Adds a whole lot of meaning if it's so.

"They can surprise us every time and we don't know what to expect " Is Amanda a Prophet?🤔 Welcome to the Fox Hole 🤘🦊

Su giving instructions a second time in English as if they weren't in Japan. Everyone already had the light on.

Check out The Warning. 3 piece band of sisters who rock. No gimmicks, humble, all play their instruments, and are on the uprise. Sing Automatic Sun.
