Nice one, thanks! With this performance they are "mirroring" the "Stairway to living legend" version of "The ONE" released when they announced the hiatus in October 2021. Extremely beautiful and perfectly executed version, clean and simple. Just to introduce Momoko Okazaki aka MOMOMETAL as an official member. And with a song that is considered a love letter to the fans (also known as The ONE). But The ONE is also the sum of the fans, BABYMETAL themselves and all their staff (team BABYMETAL). So, purpose is everything. 🤘🦊
A couple of days ago they started the Sabaton's Europe Tour, first at Leeds, then London and yesterday was Cardiff, tomorrow is Glasgow turn finishing the UK leg, everyone is having a blast with these, so far all the sets were different and yesterday they surprised everyone with the dance choreo for METAL KINGDOM in the middle of the set. I hope you can get the chance to see them live in the US, i already saw a couple of reactors going to see them at the Babyklok Tour. This is the same version we heard at "The One - Stairway To Living Legend " in 2021 when they went on hiatus sealing the group officially and thanking all of us, The One. This one is like a short version of that, hence the "Unfinished Version" title, iirc you already reacted to that version, if you didn't then go for it to understand the context, just careful with the copyright blocked. Anyway this is also special since they're introducing MomoMetal officially and showing the same new outfit they wear when performing live at PIA Arena MM. We're so proud of Momoko now becoming a superlady, this is actually the second time she's in an official MV as MomoMetal, the first one was in Mirror Mirror.🍑❤️ See you next time 🦊🤘🔥
Great reaction and welcome Momometal.🦊This is the same version Su and Moa performed for the 'Stairway to Living Legend' performance that they used to announce they were going on hiatus in October 2021 ... but this is a much shorter 'unfinished' version as they've only sung the first verse for this The First Take video.
Atm we have this stripped down version for 3 songs: - "Akatsuki Unfinished" - "Monochrome" The first Take - "The One unifnished" or "The One - Stairway to living Legends" WE might get more in the future, who knows!!
Having heard all the versions of The One, including the Unfinished version, this wasn't a big shocker...I would have preferred them doing the Japanese version, which had a longer parts for (then) Yui and Moa, which would've been great for Momoko and Moa. The costume looks ok, but i think i prefer the metal kingdom costume a bit more.😅😅😅🤘🦊🤘
