Legendary Ladies!! | Band-Maid - The Dragon Cries (Official Music Video) | REACTION 

The only reaction channel I know that starts off with a guy on his seat and could end anywhere on the floor. PLZ MORE BANDMAID

I think the best thing about the band is how every instrument is clearly heard. the basist, the drumer, lead guitarist.....you can here each one and their not drowned out like sooo many rock songs.

Miku and Saiki flew to NYC to work with producer Tony Visconti (David Bowie & T Rex) to recored the vocals. In January interviews in Japan they said Visconti was very nice to them and they enjoyed NYC. Saiki said one difference was that when changes were made to the song, they sang the entire song again vs just doing the changed part as in Japan. She also said Visconti before making a change he would ask if they thought it would okay with Kanami. Akene, Kanami, and MISA flew in later for their 2 NYC concerts which Visconti attended. This song gets better every time I hear it. Hope they work with him again. I would love to have been there for their entire visit especially when Visconti met Kanami!!

As they said in recent interview, this is the slowest BAND-MAID song ever. they also say like "We couldn't do this slow song untill now. We've grown". If you sing or play any instrument, you know that just playing slow is easy, but playing slow song good is not easy.

This is what I gathered from multiple interviews. The lyrics of this song was written by Thomas Kenney who introduced Band Maid to Tony Visconti. Tony got interested and offered them to produce a song. Miku thought somebody was trying to con them but just in case sent a demo to Tony anyway, and Tony replied, ‘Lets do it’ so they recorded the instrument parts in Japan, then Saiki and Miku flew to NY to record vocal parts with Tony. Result is this song. According to Miku’s account, Tony was very nice to girls to the point they felt they were visiting relatives’ grandfather. Tony apparently thrifted a lot of pre-recorded sound tracks to the point he had to ask Miku if Kanami would be mad at him. Miku told Tony ‘there would be absolutely no problem.” Kanami later stated although melody was changed, core of her music was left totally untouched and she felt she got a seal of approval from the world top level producer. Tony later visited their live shows in NY, both shows, just like any grandpa would do.

Band-Maid is getting better and better!

This is not Heavy Metal or even Hard Rock. It’s 70’s Heavy Rock. Thank you Band Maid.

Yep!!! Stumbled across my first Band Maid video 4 days ago. I ... can ....not ... get ... enough. Soaking up all their videos. Simply amazing. Their talent is incredible. Their songs are mesmerizing. And they rock harder than just about everybody at the moment. I sincerely hope they do a US tour - SOON! I have already ordered several of their studio albums. This group is LEGIT!

As I said before ハニー (Honey) is Band-Maid's most underrated song. It is a diamond in the rough. Akanes drum work in the 2nd half of the song is unprecedented.

This song was killer. First time I'm hearing it is right here. Reacting with you brother. So good!

Thanks to you reacting to this band, I am now into Band-Maid. These gals bring it big time. Recently, I found another all-female Japanese metal band called Lovebites. You can hear they are heavily influenced by old school metal and power metal. The first song I heard by them is The Crusade - Battle In the East live. It's got an Iron Maiden vibe going on. I think you will get into them as much as Band-Maid.

Woooooo YES, i absolutely LOVE your Band Maid reactions. They're the fkin best man!! I still cannot believe you didn't do 'Rinne' (Reincarnation) yet, you're missiiiing out, duuude. You're gonna lose your shit! Also 'Puzzle' live, 'Moratorium' live, 'Take me higher' live, the list goes on, I can't wait for you to discover these songs.

Very 70s hard rock vibe... really good....

すんげー喜んじゃてる このヒゲおやじwwww サウンドとあかねちん ドンピシャなんだねww

Lmao the man who always collapse when hearing Bando-Maid, you always melt xD 💝👗🎌✌

Secret my lips, Puzzle, alone and Moratorium are some of my favorite from Band Maid. I would recommend those songs( live performance of course ) if you want to do another band maid reaction.👍👍

I have put "Reincarnation" in the comments of every video you have done for BAND-MAID, and will continue to do so until you do a reaction to it.

This one look like a movie ost

You are the best and my favorite Band-maid reactor

I definitely love the bluesy feel to the song. I haven't heard a bad one yet from them. So talented. My reaction is the same as yours every time I hear a new song from them. Ya gotta love em'.

You need to react to Band-Maid's Alone. Its one of my favourite songs by them.

You gott do the 'REAL EXISTENCE'!!!

Also this song was 100% and there were subs, but I guess you had to be watching the MV lol Band maid (Live) puzzle, dont you tell , turn me on

OMG YES THANK GOODNESS YOU REALLY GET IT !!! THEY ARE F>>>>G AWESOME !!!!

日本の誇りやで🇯🇵

You need to do the next Band-Maid reaction in a hospital, with a doctor next to you, cause I'm worry about you!

band maid rocks

The Dragon Cries as we destroy the world. At least we have great music to listen to.

I was blown away by the all english lyrics.

This song is phenomenal, video and music have such an interesting message in them. I love this song and like you, my new favorite BAND-MAID song

"Moratorium" live next?

The guitar solo in real existence is amazing if you really like band maid I've been listening to them for a 3 years it is insane

It's on their newest album Conqueror released in december last year. :)

This is going to blow some more brain cells,

本当にこの人のリアクション大好きだわ〜。　いい人オーラが凄い。

I also think the message given in the video is so so so clear: we gotta stop killing this world.

Puzzle, Moratorium, Turn Me On, Live same concert as Inset, you’ve got a lot of catching up to do Best Rock /Metal our their, you already said it “there is no weak pillar in this band” you were right so I was shocked that it took so long to react to another song after your reactions to Onset I promised they keep getting better. Let’s hear another Band Maid just quicker this time!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

🤘🤘❤️🤘🤘 Hell Yeah Heath!!! The Ladies hit us with a deep message here!!!! 🤘🤘

This and Fate are the most pure hard rock songs from start to finish I've heard from them. They're just ridiculous. Seeing them live is definitely bucket list.

Take me higher live

Love your reactions dude

I bet it would only take one hand to count the number of videos that MISA is wearing shoes. Reminds me of The Cars song, Let's Go. "She's so beautiful now, she doesn't wear her shoes."

毎度激しいリアクションやな…笑 見てて面白いぞ！

Thank You... I thought it was just me. I can't get enough of these girls.

Listen to screaming, AK(ane)-47 going in super sayan mode her drums, you'll love it ;)

I was waiting for this the whole day! :D

I subbed to their channel last night and woke up to this on my phone. I had a very similar reaction, without the pauses.

Check out the live version if you get a chance. The Dragon cries was performed at their Valentine's day live 2020.

no cure bro when u obsessed with band maid...like me

lol, you're rolling on the floor and I'm just like umm, yeah

I've never felt the urge to watch the original of whatever you're reacting to, but no I have that urge.

This song is beyond bloody hell awesome!!!!! Love your reactions bro. Again there is a Korean girls group called: Walking After U. You will love them.

On bass MISA! MISA! MISA!

Moratorium live or Puzzle live next!

Dude they're great live aswell seen them in amsterdam and london! Worth every penny plus they have great merchandise!

reincarnaton puzzle (live) dont you tell me (live) choose me YOLO secret my lips secret maiko lips gioncho thanks mr.rocknroll

"Reincarnation" should be your next reaction video, but the title is in Japanese. So, when you search for it, it appears like this: BAND-MAID / 輪廻

For me the BEST Rockband on the Planet!!! Listen to them since there first Album came out. LOVE IT!!!!

Visconti worked with T Rex and Thin Lizzy and it shows on this track.

I luv ya man, you got the best reactions ever!! Misa misa misa!!! Akane one of the best drummers

Bubble has a killer guitar riff

Alright I think you're ready for more of that classic rock sound from Band-Maid: Turn Me On (Live) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-KOtHLjV5cNo.html

"Band Maid - Moratorium Live" PLEASE 🤘

Signed Band-Maid....what is your request? Shirt, banner, pictures? Let me know and I will do what I can to make it happen. Otherwise, I have a shirt double and I am willing to send it to your PO-Box. Please let me know and I am going after it. Seriously, no joke; will send.

nice to see you Mr.rock'n roll I recommend you "moratoritm live“

Thanks Brah!

Dude, I won't stop recommending this two until you react them: Moratorium and Don't You Tell ME, both songs Live.

You’ve reacted to most of their best stuff so far but one you really need to see is Moratorium live.

Corrected BAND-MAID member pronunciations from Japan: Miku (MEE-koo); guitar, vocals. Saiki (SA-ee-kee); vocals. Kanami (KAH-nah-mee); lead guitar. MISA (MEE-sa, MEE-sa, MEE-sa); bass. Akane (AH-ka-neh); drums.

BAND-MAID最高だよね✨

You might as well just leave the hat off when reacting to Band-Maid. It's gonna fly off anyway! :D

Alright how has this man not reacted to MAXIMUM THE HORMONE yet? Another Japanese metal (mostly) band, also has a rad female drummer. Check out Yoshu Fukushu by them. As for more BAND-MAID, I recommend "BAND-MAIKO / secret MAIKO lips". It's a fun one they did.

haha spring man :) always

This song sounds like Led Zeppelin. Awesome!

There are a couple handfuls more of live performances for you to do of this band.

for more great music from japan i would recommend you to check out wagakki band - Ikusa or Senbonzakura you will not be disappointed

No comment on the fact that they sing completely in English for the first Time ?

As a few others have said on here, your next band from Japan to check out should be Lovebites. The song that amazed me was Edge of the World- Battle in the East Live. The song starts off slow then kicks up the tempo, similar to the pace of Nightwish-Ghost Love Score. Their music mostly sounds like metal from the late 80's/early 90's and their two guitarists can shred. Check it out!

You are hilarious! 😂 ❤

I just bought the Conqueror album, and I have been warped. I don't think you have reacted to the final song on the album yet, Reincarnation. The video is shot like an old home movie, and the bass just carries the whole song.

I was hoping you reach to this i saw it a few hours when it drop i dropped too loved it and seeing you reach are just great

when did they start using english. AWESOME!!!!!!!

Very tasty, it brought a tear to me eye. And did you notice? The song is in English!

Awkward live is great, but slightly different. You won't regret it.

Hey dear Mr. Rock & Roll. I don't know if you know Band Maid is releasing a new album on December 2. Prepare your heart, I'm worried. Best regards from Chile, at the end of Southamerica.

X Japan!!! They are an 80s rock/metal band from Japan with a MASSIVE following outside of the States. Please try Art of Life (live in 1993). Its a 30min song so I understand if you dont, but you're missing out. It's an absolute masterpiece! Other, shorter, songs to try are Kurenai, Jade, X, or Silent Jealosy. Trust me, these guys are masters and the drummer is a BEAST. Even Gene Simmons from Kiss said that if they spoke English natively, they would be the biggest band in the world.

I keep on tellin' ya dude...try "The Non-Fiction Days" (live). You won't come out of that back room.

Suggestion: BRATS - "どうだってよかった (Doudatte yokatta)", "決まりごと (Kimarigoto) LIVE."

i've got 3 band maid tshirts-but i only wear them in the summer so i can advertise the group-they are still relatively unknown in western mass.where i live which is hard to believe because we have a vibrant music scene here-lots of colleges around here and has been ahead of the curve on the new music since the mid 60's-yeah i'm that old-also printed a LARGE online photo displayed in the back window of my van. but i know hard rock is your passion like mine- i have to suggest a new japanese band to check out-they are called ironbunny and they have 3 very cute female vocalists kinda like babymetal only hard rock instead-eddiee ironbunny claims to be a 23rd century cyborg where rock has died and he came back in time to share his amazing shreddability with the world.when you see the body armor he wears you will know what he means. all three girls are killer vocalists and their harmony will blow you away-try a song called lightning speed featuring doug aldrich from the dead daisies.you will love them-i guaranrtee it! other songs to check out are 23 and e.i.b.-give 'em a shot

Congrats to heavy metal. 50 years today. BLACK SABBATH!

.......And they have a few "Nothing Else Matters" songs. Not every song will kick you in the head. They do often aim for the belly, and the nuts.... I'm always left laughing after your reactions. The Bassist is MISA. MISA is the bassist. The grudge......... MISA, MISA........ BASSIST IS MISA. MISA!!!!!!!!

I like the Jimi Hendrix vibe of this song. But, dude… "even when I don't understand the lyrics, I like the lyrics"... this song was in English! LOL

What left her...... is the destruction of the planet. The "Dragon" is Mother Earth watching what humanity is doing to it.... and itself. Our "fun band" just dropped a dose of reality on us.

またドア開けてるww

Great reaction! You should also check out this band NINGEN ISU... HEARTLESS SCAT official music video... and LOVE NIRVANA also official music video... 🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟

Have you heard The Warning? Their cover of Metallica’s Enter Sandman went viral 6 years ago when they were all under the age of 15. Now they are working on their 3rd album, doing a 30-city North American tour, and their Kickstarter is at 420%. This is Dust to Dust, from their Queen of the Murder Scene album, a descent into darkness: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-TeIbG8nkOiU.html

You must react on Passcode -taking you out- in live version... 🔥🔥🔥🤟🤟

Not sure if you have ever heard of Lovebites...another all female Japanese metal band. They are more into power metal. If interested, try the song "Rising". Think you will like them...
