BABYMETAL | 'YAVA!'「ヤバッ! (Reaction!) | Never a bad day for some Kami Band 

To me, there's some Ska vibes on this one. Then again, I shouldn't be surprised. They mix pretty much all metal (and non-metal) genres. This is why I love this group. I wouldn't be an understatement to say I listen to them every day. Pretty much all their songs have different styles, so it doesn't feel repetitive. Once again, good reaction!!

One of my top 10 BABYMETAL songs, it's just fantastic!

Tanks again from Japan 有難う💛。The 3 girls once said like "We feel we have been protected all the time by Kami band" and Kamis said "The girls took us to stages in the world, outside of Japan. We have nothing but gratitude towards them". The good relation between Kamis and Su / Moa remains intact. In a video uploaded in RU-vid, BOH and Ohmura said how excellent "the two persons" were and how much they loved and respected "the two persons". They said so 2 days after the finial show of 10 BABYMETAL Budokan concerts on April 15 last year. Of course the persons they mentioned are Su and Moa.

BabyMetal is so positive, I read they are being use in Depression Music Therapy because therapists noticed their patients improved after they started listen to BabyMetal on their own. When I listen to BabyMetal my depression and anxiety just melts away. Why are you not on the treadmill in the hotel workout room? Slacker.

_Pippo pappo pippo pappo piii!!_ 🦊🤘 Horrible live compilation, love the song too thou. _"Chigau"_ (different) was the title fans put to this song when live premiere without knowing the real title.

Good reaction, but don't try to make too much sense of the lyrics in this one - the whole point of it seems to be confusion. This wasn't a very good compilation (the choreo wasn't matched up properly), I think whoever made it was trying to get the Kami Band intro in (that wasn't matched very well to what they were playing either). This is BABYMETAL mixing some ska in with their metal. Some bands have been trying to do that for years, BABYMETAL come in, do it far better at their first attempt - and move on to the next blend.

⚡ 💀 💕 / 🤔 Nice. Definitely one of my favorites off of 'Metal Resistance', the second BABYMETAL album. Even with a translation it's hard to know exactly what this song is about. As Du-Metal says on his translation page, "The meaning of the lyrics is vague, obscure & ambiguous." Even so, this Ska + Metal + JPop combination sounds great to me.

Not a Fan of Ska ( although i like Baggy Trousers by Madness ) but love BabyMetals take on it . The music ,vocals , courography and there expressions on there faces when saying Yava . From early teens my friends and i loved music not mainstream groups pop ect . We liked Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Hawkwind and other groups not all rock and metal . I bumped into one of my old friends couple years ago and asking what we being up to and i just being to see BabyMetal and mentioned it . I was shocked when he said "not really into music " . I mentioned all the music we all loved and he said he only pretending to like music to fit in ! . I was shocked and pointed out we where all into motorbikes and martial arts and movies . I pointed this out and he didnt have to like exactly the same things . Sad thing is we went to music shops and he bought albums and just to fit in . He could of spent the money on things he did like . Social pressure to fit in doesn't bother me after all i love BabyMetal i dont know anyone in my home town who's a fellow fan so i am also different after all 🤣🤘🦊

10:20 yeah I understand that very well, sometimes you must lie to yourself to fit into the social. For me this song also not all happiness, it has seriousness, something to do with the confusion, the desperate about something is different or being different too

Brother, no matter how you felt, you are now and forever will be a member of "THE ONE". You are one of us and we are legion. #NotaCult (maybe...) ;o)

From the treadmill to standing still to being in the bedroom. You’re inching closer to that bed, I can’t wait for your next video to be you lying down in bed haha

#yuibot in her element. Another great reaction Sebs. The Avengers are all great dancers, but none can match the precision of Yui.

As with most Babymetal lyrics (and indeed the Japanese language in general) the meaning of this song is very ambiguous. The title itself is in fact a perfect example of this. _Yava_ is slang for the word _yabai_ (やばい), which originally meant _dangerous._ It's normally written _yaba,_ but for some reason Koba decided to spell it with a V, even though the /v/ phoneme doesn't really exist in Japanese. The meaning of _yabai_ has actually changed quite a bit over time, and depends greatly on context and how it's expressed. Like I said, it originally meant _dangerous, risky, suspicious,_ but during the 80's, it started to be used as an exclamation, similar to _oh no!_ or _oh my god!_ A decade after that, kids started to use it as a slang term, initially meaning something like _crazy, weird_ or _funny,_ but this continued to evolve, and today it's most often used to mean something good, like _amazing, cool,_ or _awesome._ As it has changed to having almost the opposite meaning in just 40 years, the age of the speaker needs to be taken into account. And considering how young Su, Moa and Yui are, the title of this song could be assumed to mean something like "cool!", but interpreted in context with the rest of the lyrics, I think it's safer to assume that they mean "oh no!". Perhaps reflecting the age of the songwriter more than the singers?

No one really knows what this song actually means but this interpretation is as good as any I've heard.

This is in my Metal Resistance album top spot together with "Awadama Fever"! I like it a lot :D

YAVA:- I love this song because I love the SKA genre. YAVA fuses SKA and Metal. Very underrated song cos, not many reactors react to this. Some in the Metal community didn't even knew that the SKA genre existed unless you listen to No Doubt and other bands that play the SKA genre such as and I can list a few but I think there are fans who know better. 1. Reel Big Fish - Sell Out (1996) 2. Mighty Mighty Bosstone - The Impression That I Get (1997) 3. Suicide Machines - Skankin' Pickle - Song #3 (1997) 4. Kemuri (Japanese Ska Band) - Positive Mental Attitude (P.M.A) (1998) 5. The Pietasters - Out All Night (1997) 6. Spring Heeled Jack - Jolene (1998) 7. Slapstick - Eighteen (1997) 8. Rancid - Time Bomb (1995) 9. Tokyo Ska Paradise Orchestra from Japan - Skaravan. This are from the 90s mainly because I was born in the 70s. The Kami Band is brilliant and brutal. Enjoy your reaction. Thanks for reacting to this. Kitsune Up 🦊🦊🦊🤘🇯🇵🇸🇬 YAVA! YAVA! is a song from BABYMETAL's second original album, METAL RESISTANCE. Information:- •Artist: BABYMETAL •Album: BABYMETAL •Lyrics: NAKAMETAL, Mk-metal, Kxbxmetal •Composition: Norimetal •Arrangement: Yuppemetal This tune was performed for the first time on 2015 Jun. 21st at Makuhari Messe, Chiba. Since then, it was tentatively called "Chigau". The Japanese title is "ヤバッ!" (= yaba!) and this word is sometimes jokingly written as "ヤヴァッ!" (= yava!). The meaning of the lyrics is vague, obscure & ambiguous. This is the same old way of Japanese popular songs. If the singers are attractive enough, the fans can freely enjoy whatever fantasies they like with such vague lyrics. I don't think there is the true story and the lyric writer has hidden it, so I hope the listeners think freely what differs how from what.

Nice reaction, thanks! One of my favorite songs. For some reason the ska vibe works for me and that breakdown is everything! It also has a funny choreo but that was a really bad compilation video. The solos are always challenging for compilations(specially on closeups) but they managed to ruin the general flow of the choreo as well. Although the meaning of the lyrics can be ambiguous at some point I believe that the meaning given to you was correct and that it's all about being, acting and most important, being perceived as "different" in a society where acting out the "canon" is seen as weird (and by "weird" I mean "wrong" and "unacceptable"). So yes, they say "chigau" a number of times... hehe... And that can be perfectly applied to their own history. Until next time!

Thanks for taking us on the road Sebs-metal! Arigatou! 🦊🤘 #notacult

I love my music but there is something so special about BM that is different. They create so much emotion when I watch their performances and your choice of using ‘Joy’ to describe them is so apt. I feel real joy whenever I see them perform, which surprises me everytime.

In fact, when we have a similar situation like in the lyrics, we will have the same movements and facial expressions as Yui and Moa. Their choreography explains the lyrics and expresses the music. Really great!

Nice reaction. A personal favorite of mine. From the kamiband intro to the breakdowns to the facial expressions and ok everything about this song is cool. One of the verses talks about things looking the same but if you look deeper, you will see they're actually different. Some interpretations of that are it's about Yui and Moa. When they became internationally known many had a hard time telling the difference between them. Until folks learned Yui is the very kawaii one and a great dancer with puggy cheeks. While Moa has dimples, feels like she was made for metal and she's the one talking about food. While on stage they may look similar as well. But in the early days they often had gloves on opposite hands. For me I could tell the difference I just took a while to remember their names. Su was always easy to spot even when they were in Sakura Gakuin. Su just stands out no matter what group she's in. You will be able to spot her. Now for the avenger just when I was starting to get to really know them, it was suddenly just Momoko left. So, it became easy. Enjoy the rest of your journey through the Babymetal galaxy of music.

I think this is not a good compilation as I noticed the audio was out of sync toward the end? Or it's just your edit to avoid copyrights?

One my top top Babymetal songs so much fun love it 🤘🦊🤘

Seems Moa really likes that particular kamiband intro. I always see her sing to the beat like here 4:00

This is such a clever song. Performed with such adorable dancing. 😍😍😍😍 Thanks for the reaction.

the hint of ska makes this one of my fave songs, & fyi, it's one of Su's faves to sing too.

This song doesn't get enough credit, in my opinion. To be honest, I can't even say whether the message is positive, as the lyrics are very unspecific and open to interpretation. But I love the music and choreography (especially Yui's yabai-face), it always puts me in a good mood. I think I have a soft spot for Ska, even though I don't really listen to it. As usual, it's integrated perfectly here, and it gives the song a very special charm.

One of my favorite Babymetal song.

🍅💀🍅 🤘🏼🦊🤘🏼 YABAI !! !!

When I think about what my favorite BM song is, it's always one of the anthems like RoR or Headbanger or Akatsuki...but if you really want to know which one is the most guaranteed to put a big goofy smile on my face, it's this one right here....pi po pa po pi po pa po pi!

I heard that "yava" was originally used by yakuza, but now it is a generalized slang except for the elderly. In terms of meaning, it's either "very good" or "not very good."

🤘🦊♪

Always nice to see another reaction to Japanese band, but love your reactions in general :) Would be kinda cool if you could check out some BAND-MAID songs, recently got hooked by their music, awesome rock stuff. Personal favorites are Freedom (live), Onset (live, an instrumental), thrill and dice. But tbf, all their songs are hella enjoyable. Keep up the great vids and your chill attitude, much love from Germany dude

ska

🤘🦊🤘

YABA Not Yava YABA means dangerous

been a BM fan since Metal Resistance love them for all the right reasons it brings me back to something special in my life long ago but it stuck I guess it's a Japanese thing . anyway Yava is in my top 5 BM songs, curious to hear some of your listeners top 5 ??

great reaction. BTW Love all your Norm Macdonald reactions. PLEASE react to a band called RUSH😊😊

yoo.. 🤘🏾🦊🤘🏾

😁😁😁🤘🤘🤘

Good reaction to one of the worst edited comps in history. Kitsune dao!

BABYMETAL does ska!!! I LOVE it .❤️ If you like to hear them do some latino vibes? check out "Night Night Burn!" !!!!

I love this song. The translations I've seen hint at something so clever and witty but at the same time massively cynical. And the choreography is heart meltingly cute. I actually don't rate this intro so much. It's amazing as always, but it doesn't really seem to fit here. I'll definitely be checking on your other reactions. Kitsune up. 🦊🤘 Edit: oh; you Da treadmill guy? Haha. Well, in that case I'll be revisiting you other reactions then.

when more the dooo? :/

Nice reaction. Great song and performances but a horrible compilation.

Sometimes the compilations are pretty good because they spend more time on the girl's dancing, but this one is awful, all weird angles and quick jerky cuts. The "straight-up" concert vid is much prefered
