How many people were holding their breath, as Su's note went higher and higher, and waiting for the beat to drop?... I didn't start breathing again until the instruments kicked back in. Seriously, i think Babymetal has been taking lessons from edm tracks on when to drop the beat.... not that many bands, especially metal, is so good at building up that anticipation before dropping the beat, no one does it as well as Babymetal. Wished Moa's vocal bit was a bit more though, it sound so good. Love how these new songs all are giving Su a lot opportunity to flex her vocal skills...😄😄😄🤘🦊🤘
Welcome back. This is definitely a song that leans a long way towards the pop end of the BABYMETAL sliding scale, further than most I'd say (so it has taken a while and several listens to grow on me). However, this was the studio audio and I have read the live version is ... different (the Kami Band's instrumentals are more prominent than those of the studio recording). We can only wait for the DVD to hear the live audio and see how much it differs of course. 'Monochrome' is my own favourite of the 4 songs released so far in advance of the new album - and they have just released a piano version of that on The First Take.
Welcome back to BabyMetal's metalverse 🦊🤘🌐 You guys, so good to see you're back too, they recently released a new Piano version of Monochrome, you can find it at "The First Take" channel, go check it out, is really beautiful. A new single is coming this month along with album release so stay tuned for more. L&D is another great pop rock ballad with beautiful SuMetal vocals piercing into our hearts. Love the J-pop sound and the nostalgic vibes mixed with the edm sound. Here's some info about this song: _"One of the discovered 10 parallel worlds is "LIGHT AND DARKNESS" and this 4th pre-release digital single “Light and Darkness” centers around this theme. Because light exists, darkness also exists._ _And because darkness is present, there is also a world that shines._ _During the night when light and darkness intersect, what we seek after poisoned with darkness awaits a world filled with strong love. As the door opens, is it hope or despair that awaits us? The song expresses the duality in everything and the way things are perceived and interpreted differ depending on each person’s point of view."_ This was a world premiere at Makuhari Messe 2023 setlist, along with "THE LEGEND" (maybe the next single), Momoko Okazaki is the third backup dancer performing here and possibly the new official member starting next month. MoaMetal once again adding the backing vocals and all of them dancing with the full trio formation. Here's the lyrics translated with some help. Thanks for sharing this. See you next time 🦊🤘🔥 Lyrics : MK-METAL / TAKEMETAL Music : TAKEMETAL Arrangement : tatsuoMETAL [Lyrics] Even the reality buried in the snow of sadness Even these hands that have been dyed red by mistakes Take me to oblivion To an ideal world filled with love Open that door Come on Ah, Ah Being poisoned, falling into a dream A night where light and darkness seek and play together Drowning in a sea of rhythm Even my memories are being destroyed This love is strong and strong I'm sure it won't stop This love is strong and strong Never let go Let me out. Let me out. let's jump out hit by the rain of joy Let me go. Let me go. Right now Let's dance the night away Take me to oblivion Take off the mask filled with lies Right now Being poisoned, falling into a dream A night where light and darkness seek and play together Drowning in a sea of rhythm Even my memories are being destroyed This love is strong and strong I'm sure it won't stop This love is strong and strong Never let go In the night when sorrow overflows Keep this love warm Open the door now Come on Ah, Ah Even my dreams are poisoned A night where hope and despair seek and play together Ring out forever Even my heart is filled This love is strong and strong I'm sure it won't stop This love is strong and strong Never let go
They now dance in a new style. 😀I'm also wondering how they remember more than fifty dances. ❤️And it is obvious that Su-metal's vocals have taken it to the next level.❤️ Thanks for your great reaction.
It is a new side of Babymetal, I think they are now showing us less of the characters that were created and more of who they are and that could not make me more happy. I kind of understand why people miss the old Babymetal but we still have that on video and can relive it whenever we want, for those of us who have dug down deep into the foxhole and have gained an understanding of who the girls are beneath the personas, I think we appreciate Suzuka and Moa, as much, if not more than we do Su-metal and Moametal
i totally agree with you on Su against anyone. love that First Take video. it is so clean even as loud as Su sings. i love seeing up close how Su sings and her expressions. so much emotion in her voice.
Been a huge fan of Babymetal for 5 years, I love this band. Unfortunately, since Metal Resistance they have started shifting away from the metal sound that many of the fans desire. They have lost a lot of market share to Nemophila, and for good reason. Compare Nemophila"s new song, just released to the last few Babymetal songs. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rD3VMAm-9iA.html
Nemophila is just in a completely different genre. They are great but they are not taking Babymetal market share. Totally different vocals, even when Mayu is singing clean, and a very different lyrical style.
@@jimnusbaum3589 lyrical style doesn't change the genre, but ok. Whatever. Believe what you want. Babymetal's popularity is waning because they are moving away from the metal aspect that made them what they are. I say this in a sad way because I am a fan.
