When a cute little Japanese metalgirl asks you to sing and jump... you sing and jump damn it

To see the innocence and youthful passion of these three teenage girls, combined with some of the most cleverly crafted music I've ever heard, connecting with so many people......fucking beautiful.

How can she sing so well when bouncing that high...it’s incredible

The crowds are 100% better than Glastonbury's

Singers get all the glory. But that band behind them is fucking murderous.

Su metal is ridiculously talented.

In an interview, SU-METAL talks about this performance: ” Download Festival 2016 was one of the most impressive festival for us. It rained a lot that day. Just before our turn, it started pouring. The stage manager said to us, “OK, it's your turn. Let's get started!” but obviously the situation was too bad for us to start. The stage floor was flooded. Playing in the rain is very difficult and dangerous for all bands. On top of that, we BABYMETAL dance on the stage. In back of the stage, the managing staff were discussing whether we should wait for the rain to stop, or even cut some tunes from the set list. It was in such restless and nervous situation when we started our performance. However, thousands of people had been waiting to see BABYMETAL in the pouring rain, and it touched us so much. We might have to stop performing halfway due to the rain, but or so we tried to do our best under extreme tension. While dancing we often slipped and found it very hard to perform, yet we had no choice but to concentrate thoroughly on our performance. Yui, Moa and I said to each other, “Watch your step!” Even in such terrible situation, we just wanted the audience to enjoy BABYMETAL. During the performance I sang and danced thinking such various things. After the performance, I felt really relieved because we were able to finish without any accident or injury. On the other hand, I might say the pouring rain made our performance in Download Festival 2016 very dramatic and emotional. Above all, the enthusiastic reaction of the audience pushed us forward. I thank them from the bottom of my heart.” After reading it, watching Yui & Moa lying on the flooded stage and Su calling to the audience, I can’t help crying more than ever.

How many barriers are they breaking in this genre? Culture, language, race, gender, age, etc... popular metal acts in the west don't usually look or sound like this.

HOLY SHIT you don't expect them to be THIS good live. I am legit blown away. It must be fucking amazing actually seeing them in a live show.

I cried when I saw the crowd. I was bullied by a couple of metalheads back in 2013 because I liked Babymetal, they kept saying they were stupid, now look at this: playing with Iron Maiden and Metallica, two of the bullies favourite bands, and doing concerts for thousands of people. While their stupid little bands never left the garage. Take that bullies!

Bass player. Favorite person on earth. Not up for debate.

“Let us hear your voice!” Note how Su takes her in-ear monitor out - a subtle but crucially important moment of the performance.

When Su-metal sings, even Heavens cries with her voice.

the singer is RIDICULOUSLY talented

This will always be my favorite performance of theirs...no fancy staging or lighting, just the girls, the rain, and thousands of metalheads in the moment. Just amazing.

The rain and the fans make this performance LEGENDARY!

It was raining SO hard during this.... like watermelon sized rain. I had no coat and needed wringing out afterwards. But I enjoyed every moment of this performance. Unforgettable!

For the people who want to know their names. Suzuka "Su-metal" Nakamoto: lead singer Yui "Yuimetal" Mizuno: screams and dance Moa "Moametal" Kikuchi: screams and dance (Moa and Yui have 4 songs where they sing together, without Su) Daisuke "Boh" Bohte: bassist Takayoshi Ohmura: guitarist (pink) Mikio Fujioka: guitarist (black) Hideki Aoyama: drummer

目が本気なんよな、それが本当に良い。 まさに少数精鋭。戦士の目してる。 歳下の女の子俺が友達とモンハンしてた頃に この子達は世界と戦ってたと思うと 涙止まらん

4:12-4:23 might be favourite part of any live performance, the vocals, the shot of Su looking up while its absolutely pissing it down with rain. Just so so good.

数年前に、このライブの映像見てbabymetalに惚れたんだ。いまだに鳥肌立つし涙がちょちょぎれるおっさんです。

I‘m moved every time when Su says „Let me hear your voice“ and takes the monitor out of her ear.

ジャンプしながら唄う。きれいに歌う。呼吸とか不安定にならずに。 歌上手いとかの次元じゃないぜ。 どんな凄まじい体幹してるのさ！

この子達の声は不思議だ。声も遠くまで飛んでいて透き通っていてそれでいて力強さもある。

Su is like some dark kawaii Disney princess. Only instead of using her singing to charm forest animals she charms metalheads.

久々に聴いたけどやっぱかっけぇわ

この舞台でこれ程の パフォーマンス これができる日本人はいないわ

イギリスの観客を呑んでいるまさに奇跡、夢を見ているようだ、、、 そして50過ぎの遥昔のメタルキッズに音楽の楽しさを思い出させてくれた。。毎日毎日彼女たちの音楽が楽しくてたまらない！

メタルという面倒臭い客が多いジャンル、しかも見知らぬ国に乗り込んで道場破りに完全勝利、みたいな事を次々と世界でやって来た彼女らはもはやリビングレジェンドであり、ハードルが高すぎてまだ誰も超えられない。

SUが手を上げろって言ってみんな一斉に手を上げるのが爽快

"走れ"ってすごく心に刺さりました。 今までそこまで興味なかったけど見て良かったなって思いました。

一言一句はっきり聞き取れる歌唱力があるから日本語が「美しい」って思ってもらえるんだろうな

I got goosepumps of how the crowd was living the moment with the music! Amazing band. I also want to see and hear Babymetal in live.

The rain makes it epic

一番ヤバイのsu-metalの声質だな、この動画のハイライトが彼女のC&Rなのが全てを物語ってる

セイヤ！の部分大人数のオーディエンスが声を出してるのが聞こえる…みんな本当に好きなんやな…

雨が降るタイミングといい、まるで映画のワンシーン！ 何度観てもトリハダが立ちます。完璧！！

Bass guitar player has mad stage presences

アイドルなんてって偏見してたけど、聞いてみたらめっちゃカッコいい ハマってしまった、昔の私を怒りたい

BABYMETALは歌、ダンス、表情まで完璧なのか…

日本人がUKをこんなに熱狂させられるなんて。コールアンドレスポンスに泣かされるしohohohって全員で歌うでしょ。涙出ちゃうよね。大袈裟だけど、同じ未来担う人間だよね。

観客もセイヤ、ソイヤ言ってる。合いの手完璧。そしてシンガロング。すごいわ。

イギリスのロック好きやメタラーは、良くも悪くもBABYMETALの事をみんな知っているよね それだけでも凄い事 今後こんなに認知される日本の音楽グループなんて出てこないかもしれない まさに伝説 同じ時代に生まれた事に感謝🤟

Su's voice is better in live than in record. Very talented.

このKARATEは気迫が半端なく伝わってきて何度も見てしまう！ 本当にすごい！

存在は知ってたけど、ここまで魅せられ惹き付けられるとは…。

あまりにも出来が良すぎる、凄すぎる場合には英語でも汚い、下品と思われる単語を用いることで最大限の称賛を送ることがある。それしか術がないのだから仕方ない。詳しくはここのコメントやyoutube内にある無数のreaction videoに譲るけれど、日本語でもそれは同じなのであえて言う。「クソすごい」「腹が立つ位の一級品」「気分が悪くなるほどに飛び抜けてる」。Namely, that is Babymetal. Hands down. Without a shadow of doubt.

これは見るたびに涙腺が緩む動画。

こんな大勢の聴衆の前でしかも海外という場で日本を背負いながら生で踊りながら音程もずれずに歌う度胸と才能と積み重ねたであろう力にただただ畏れる尊敬する

踊りながら歌うSUを褒めるなら、ジャンプしながらベースを弾くBOHもたたえよう！

『BABYMETALは裏切らない』 土砂降りの雨のなか、観衆の期待に応える圧巻のパフォーマンス。 雨に濡れたステージにも、ためらうことなく倒れ込む。ゆいもあの気迫を感じる。

年齢とか全く関係なく同じ日本人としてbabymetalの存在がある事を誇りに思います

久方ぶりにMETALで心が踊った。 以前の外国風ではなく、日本語の日本独自のMETALだ＼(^o^)／ バックも多分すごいメンバーが固めてる。 コイツらスッゲー！

The bass player is a fucking boss.... Talk about groove and showmanship, awesome!!

2024年でもカッコいいな！なんだこれ今見てもなんだよ！マジで語彙力なさすぎてすまんがカッコいいなおい！

こんな最高のライブ見たことない

When he played a guitar, he always beamed as if it were easy to play. I'm referring to Mikio Fujioka who was one of the guitarists of Baby Metal. You know he passed away. I miss him, his sound, his groove. Rest in peace, Mikio.

いつもBOHさんのパフォーマンス、ジャンプに感動する。もちろん他のメンバーも。 全員、素晴しいプレイヤーにもかかわらす、白塗りやマスクなどキャラに徹しているのもかっこいい。 BMと神バンドは一体で、見ていて曲が心に突き刺さる。

名前は聞いたことあるけど、実際に曲を聴いたことなかった一人です。 ここまで海外で人気があるとは思ってなかったです。 実際聴いてみたら曲もカッコいいし、歌もうまいし、何より踊りがうまい。 ごめんなさい。30半ばになりますが、ファンになりました。

伝説のソニスフィア2014から２年後にはホームなのかと見間違う「女王降臨」 … 改めて凄い … SU-METALは現代の「卑弥呼」のようだ …

love that crowd was singing along

She has one of the most talented voices i've ever heard. It's like silk running through your ears... And the backing band is world class. I know this is a production from Japan, they basically dropped these girls into it, but jees... everyone involved in making noise on the stage is so talented. Can't hate on them at all. I do wish they'd drop the dancing though. Let the girls do their own thing on the stage for a while.

People really don't credit Su-metal enough for her vocals. Like she's got to be one of the best live-vocalists of the modern day, perfect pitch and belting while dancing and performing. Most of our best vocalists in the western world couldn't hold a note live to save their life, especially not while doing an intense dance routine. Most singers would lower the key of this song live, but Su did it effortlessly and that G#5, holy shit.

SU-METAL is a lonely diva. No one follows her. She sings without vibrato. The way sings is unique to her. The lyrics become clear by singing without vibrato. The lyrics also reach the hearts of those who do not understand Japanese. Thats her power.

やべえ、遅まきながら今頃知ってしまって・・・　なぜ今までスルーしてしまってたのか、痛恨の極み！　なんて迫力！なんてキャッチー！この曲はメタルというよりグランジかAC/DCかって感じ。　カートが生きていたら絶対好きになってくれてオープニングアクトに使ってくれただろうな～。

跳びながらあんな歌える？？？ バケモンすぎ

この曲に力もらいました。 行き詰まって悩んで苦しんでること全部ちっちゃく感じました。 明日からまた頑張れる勇気もらいました。

ベビメタそんな詳しいわけじゃないけど定期的に聴きたくなる

メタル界にこれで活気が戻る　女王として君臨してほしい。俺達で姫様たちを女王にするんだ

この子達はホント今後の日本の音楽産業を背負ってると思う。

この歳の女の子がこの音楽をかっこいいとちゃんと実感しながらパフォーマンスしてることに感動と尊敬✨

SU-METALバケモンかよ…あの動きであの声量はヤバイ

BABYMETALは日本の至宝です。

This is so freaking awesome, I wish I was in that crowd.

すごい！神がかってるパフォーマンス やっぱりbabymetalはライブを見てなんぼ！ CDの音源より１００倍素晴らしい！

歌唱力もダンスも演奏もパフォーマンス全体も素晴らしいけど、彼女たちみたいに、可愛いのにエロくなく、かつ力強さもあるアーティストってこれまでいなかったんじゃないかなー

They really should use this as the official live video of "Karate", when the rain falls at exactly the right time in the song? It's priceless. Even the U.K. weather loves Babymetal! :D

Everyone impressed with the lead singer and she is great of course but I fucking Love the band such a talented musicians

何十回と飽きずにこの動画を見てしまう！なにか神がかっているものを感じてしまうとともに、あまりにも完璧すぎてここがある意味頂点（だと思いたくないですが・・・）だったのかと見るたびに思ってしまいます。 とにかくこの動画が削除されないことを願う！

RIP Mikio ‘Ko-Gami’ Fujioka

私は７５歳ですがあまり歌わ興味が無いですがこの幼いこが外国で活躍しているの見ると日本人として嬉です頑張れ

こんな華奢なのによくこんなに声出るな

雨の中のKARATEかっこよ

only one word can describe this .. "EPIC" the girls .. the band .. the whole thing is just fucking Incredible

Can someone please tell me why they bring tears I mean actual tears to the eyes of this 49 year old man when I watch their performances? I live in fear of going to one of their concerts and blubbering like an idiot.

How is it fucking possible for them to sound EVEN BETTER LIVE???!!! Like they kill it every fucking time! It's incredible! And when I say I mean EVERY TIME! From the singers to the beyond incredible backing band! They fucking rock!

KARATEはMVもとてもカッコ良いんだけど、このライブ動画の方が圧倒的に良いんだ。なぜここまでライブ会場に行きたくなっちゃうのか(ヽ´ω`)

I'm just glad western metal is starting to accept this kind of concept

it really rare to find a band that do live better much better than their video music version. very shock

At 0:56...when Aoyama raises his drum stick in the air as the plane ascends into the sky...priceless!

I don't know why, but I'm crying... This is so beautiful.

かっけえよおおおお

I'm constantly amazed at how much traction these girls are getting with metal fans ... pretty awesome.

Band is epic, girls are awesome and the audience is full of people that dont give a damn and have fun.... Maybe the world isnt that fucked up place afterall....

いつ見ても泣いちゃう

雨のタイミングが神すぎる！！ 天も神々しさに涙かな？

i really liked this. judge me! they're very talented. what would be of planet earth without our beloved japan?

濡れたステージでこの動き？ このダンスは凄い！ 背中がゾクゾクした。

KARATEの動画が見たくなったら真っ先にここに来てしまう・・・ 4:20辺りのsu様の表情が好きです‼️

久しぶりに観たけど泣くわ… 素晴らしい🤘🏻
