Love this song! This shows they can play any genre, any speed, Heavy, soft... they can do it all! I really enjoy the softness of this song and how sweet and emotional the guitars were. Beautiful song by a beautiful band.
Very underrated song.. Mayu very emotional vocals and matching score.. dual guitar Solos are amazing..Lyrics : did I reach here where I'm alone How did I reach here where I’m alone Hello, hello, hello? Hello, hello, hello? no one is here No one is here I felt fulfilled 満たされていたと 感じてたの I just lined up things within reach 手の届くもの 並べていただけ Now I'm no longer who I was Now I’m no longer who I was start now 始めるの 今から I know the repeated mistakes 繰り返した 過ちも分かってる I'll take you with me 連れて行くから 共に No one can take my sorrow No one can take my sorrow find it yourself 見つけるの 自分で nowhere, only here 何処でもない ここでこそ Ikiku I'm here 生きてく I’m here Why did I throw away who gave me love Why did I throw away who gave me love Gimme, gimme, gimme Gimme, gimme, gimme There's nothing here There’s nothing here I want to be satisfied, even just once 満たされてみたい 一度でもいい Only longing that I can't reach 手が届かない 憧れだけには I just pretended not to notice 気づかないフリしていただけなの I don't mind if it's fake 偽物で構わないからと Cause I know where I'm standing now Cause I know where I’m standing now take a step from here 踏み出すの ここから I hurt myself 傷つけてた 自分にも I will stop lying 嘘はもう やめるから Now I'm no longer who I was Now I’m no longer who I was Because I can endure the bursting emptiness 張り裂けるような空しさにも耐えられるから Now I can take my sorrow Now I can take my sorrow I found peace 見つけたの 安らぎを really here 本当は ここには was it already もうあったの unmistakable love 紛れもない 愛が I can't hold it in my hands この手の中 抱え切れないくらい So now I'm here So now I’m here Nowhere but here Nowhere but here I'm not alone anymore I’m not alone anymore So now I'm here So now
With them confirmed to be performing at the legendary venue Budokan, they are moving on to greater stages, first the Tokyo Garden Theater and then the Budokan, and I look forward to one day Nemophila will performing at the Tokyo Dome🤘🏻🌸🤘🏻
This was their 2023 tour finale show for Seize The Fate at Zepp Diver Tokyo, pretty sure you've seen Lovebites live videos from the same venue before. It's the track off the album that Hazuki has the main writing credit for the music on, she's written songs with Koiai & Li-SA-X Band previous that have had a similar melancholic vibe to their progressions & structure.
Easily one of the best ballads of the last decade. I love her clean vocals and everything else is just perfect. It's that 80's metal ballad tone and vibe to it. Absolutely topnotch.
Great reaction Jeremy! This show was in Japan back in Feb this year. It was part of the Seize of Fate tour in Japan and after that In March is when they hit the states on that small tour where I saw them in Dallas. The venue Here is Zepp DiverCity. I think it is only around 2500 people but I might be wrong. Maybe someone might correct me on that. Its over a 1.5 k im sure. For this song Hazuki is the main composer along with another composer named Naoki Oka and Saki wrote the lyrics. As far as the title. Saki said she named it intentionally that instead of Now I'm Here. I never read her explanation for it I'm not sure she said why maybe someone else knows. But yes it is a beautiful song. They really only have three slow songs. Life which you have seen and this one and also a song called Game Over off their first album Revive. Game Over is another beautiful song with a great duel solo between Hazuki and Saki. There is no MV to it just audio. But yes this song is a very softer beautiful side of them. That solo section between Hazuki and Saki is amazing. They play their own parts and come together at times for that harmony and gorgeous sound. Hearing Hazuki play that main solo while Saki plays part rhythm along with her own soloing too and coming together with Hazuki is just ear candy to me haha. Very mesmerizing too. Like you said it was like two strands of DNA coming together at times. Awesome! Of course Mayu is amazing and you get to hear that light beautiful side to her voice. You were speaking of crowd size earlier. They played Tokyo Garden theatre back in July for their 4th anniversary and it holds over 6k to 8k I believe and they damn near filled it up. That is the largest crowd they have played too in Japan thus far as far as I know. Also they just announced that in Feb next year which will be around their 5th anniversary as a band they are playing at the Budokan that has been around since 60s was built for the Olympics and where many bands all over the world have played. BabyMetal played there back in 2014 and sold out two nights. they played there again in 21. The Capacity is around 14k depending on stage arrangement. I'm guessing they will play to around 7 to 10 k. Maybe smaller. But I'm just guessing. Anyway that will be another big show for them in their career. Here is a link to a pic what the place looks like with a stage set up on one side. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nippon_Budokan#/media/File:Nippon_Budoukan_AGE_Ibamoto_3.png
@@kawliga4845 I know the tree you mean..lol. I was close to ya. I was close to the stage, but then again everyone was..lol. Between Hara Chan and Mayu. I actually got to speak to Hara Chan and Saki some in Austin..lol. Hara Chan is actually funny off stage. She wanted to know where a good BBQ place was. Saki looked at her, hungry again?...lol Hara Chan laughed. Got to tell her she's my favorite bassist. She got this surprised looked, really? Got a little teary eyed. Said thank you. Got a hug from her. Got a picture of it somewhere. Saiki said see told you they like you here. Saki is a very nice lady. Can start laughing about nothing..lol But if you get a chance to, be on your best behavior. She definitely dont like rude people. She asked where the Stevie Ray Vaughn Memorial was. Got a wave from them at the Dallas show.
@@johnmagill7714. That’s so cool! I was at Austin and Dallas. I didn’t know they were hanging around the second day, so I just drove back to Dallas. I read the interview they did on the second day. I really wish I stuck around. I also saw Saki’s post on X with her green beer for St Patrick’s day.
When I saw them in the States they played at The Gramercy Theater in NYC which holds 500 people. Not sure if it sold out but it was pretty packed in there.
You can tell it's in Japan by how reserved the audience is. In the US or UK they would have roared their heads off instead of just applauding politely. Also, at least until recently and maybe still, Japanese venues have often had a no-shouting rule as part of their Covid precautions. This video received a little editing for release as a live MV. In the pre-edit version Mayu is visibly overcome with emotion at one point. More so than we see here. That's why I love this band: they are real people and we are privileged that they let us see their vulnerable aspect as well as the badass.
The first time I heard Mayu was the cover of Babymetal's Megitsune and I thought, 'She's good, but not as good Su-metal.' Yet I can't imagine Su-metal singing this one as good as Mayu.
@@richardxpowell Su got a powerful voice and so does Mayu and both two totally different styles and they are great at what they do. Mayu did a awesome job on that cover and the added screams were kick ass something Su cannot do. But Su can hit higher ranges too more than Mayu at least from what we have heard. I'm sure Mayu can sing more BM too but not like Su can of course. Mayu for sure can hit some high notes but does sound like she strains a bit if it goes too high especially if she has been growling in same song too. I am amazed at how she does what she does now. She is kick ass. Not many can even do what she does. Maybe Floor Jansen she can growl deep and then sing opera lol.
When I read the song title for the first time, it reminds me of 1995 movie "HACKERS" starring young Angeline Jolie as hacker code-named Acid Burn. The "villain" character in that movie called "The Plague". Once there's an attack launched by Acid Burn's team, The Plague arrived at the scene on his skateboard and said "Never fear, I is here." 😅 ...So no, I don't think the song title was wrongly translated but with "unforseen intent?" 😎
Just like 'Life' or 'Game Over', this song directly captivated me. Both musically and especially through Mayu's vocal variety, they have in my opinion a great talent for such ballads that can go deep under the skin on some days. ❤🔥🤘🏻 _____________________ _"We all may never know what it is to be ourselves"_ - from *Gacharic Spin* -「 Replica 」 🎶✨
Love this ballad. It gives me a chance to rest my heart, but it tugs at the emotional strings. I also think Game Over is very underrated. Great guitar work.
Yes Game Over is underrated. It is another great song from them. Another ballad type song that they knock out of the park. The solo section on there is beautiful too.
There is nothing Nemophila cant do, we're used to something else, fast and alot of headbanging, painful necks but this proves they can do so much more. The live is much better than the studio version imo.
Hello from good old Germany i found your channel today you doing a great job. I`m in these Japanese Metal Rabbithole so many cool bands i found Nemophila is a great one totaly awesome. One other Band i like is a new one ( only a couple of weeks ) it is East of Eden with their first song Evolve another great all female band from japan take a look i think you would love it.
