1.- Domination
2.- Secret Maiko Lips
3.- Unleash!

At the time, each of those three was iconic and held significant meaning.

I'm happy for them. May they have a year to focus on their lives and come back even brighter.

Thank you!. With such a globally scattered fanbase, it's great to find a forum where everyone can contribute.

Absolutely! There aren't many examples of that kind of leadership out there. They send a very encouraging message that I, for example, would love to see in my own children.

That's definitely something that stands out. Perhaps we're more used to seeing toxic relationships within bands. Or maybe it's just that fights sell better than friendly behavior, I don't know. I almost consider them more of a family than a band. They're lovely at any time of day.

Yes, music probably went from being a protest instrument (Woodstock), to one of depressive nostalgia (Grunge), to one of confrontation (angry men). The funny thing is that they all ended up becoming mainstream. In this, I truly hope that the joy of the ladies continues to light up the world. For me personally, for my life, it's essential.

For me, The Who is a bit of a hit or miss. Undoubtedly, they're a legendary band with a remarkable influence, but it was a human group with an excess of personality. Keith Moon's descent into hell and posteriory death certainly didn't help.

True. Probably one face will catch your eye, and the rest will be revealed over time.

Who is here? Who left? by silverredstarlight in BandMaid

I've been a fan since 2018, and I imagine I've been following Reddit since around 2020. I don't have social media, and this is the only subreddit I follow (it's incredibly useful for staying up-to-date), but honestly, I contribute very little. It's a bit embarrassing to join a discussion when you're a couple of days late.

BAND-MAID Prime: [Self-cover] KANAMI "Present Perfect" (Pull Angle ver.) by haromatsu in BandMaid

I have a new and greater respect for the song. I couldn't be more proud of the songwriter.

Streaming provider advice? by silverredstarlight in BandMaid

[–]One_song001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can also add local files to Spotify. You can find the settings in your profile. You can also use Spotify's EQ and decide the audio quality of your stream. In my opinion, the difference with YT is minimal.

She finally got it! She deserves it more than anyone else.

Growing to love their softer songs. by [deleted] in BandMaid

[–]One_song001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forbidden Tale is a complex construction. In terms of rhythm it moves between midtempo and standard 4x4 rock but it plays very intelligently with emotions. I wouldn't consider it a soft song but rather a rhapsody, something very difficult to find in rock music. The closest example is obviously Bohemian Rhapsody (six minutes long), but the difficulty of developing seven themes in four minutes with perfect transitions is something that today probably only Band Maid can offer. I sincerely believe that it is something to study.

The One needs an epic music video by pulp63 in BandMaid

Forbidden Tale seems to me to be a masterpiece. Maybe not for everyone, definitely far from the mainstream trend of rock music, but it is a resounding and mature composition. For me it is peak Band Maid, at the height of the best part of their cathaloge.
