X Japan - Kurenai

[Madeleine0310]

I love Hide's smile ♥

[GEO2DOPE]

Drangonforce only every had 1 semi dencent song and that was through the fire and the flames and it was the instrumental that was the good part other than that the rest of ther songs with that asshole ZP suck (what a dumb fucking name)

[GEO2DOPE]

WHO SAID K POP WAS BETTER I WILL FUCKING FIGHT YOU

[kenuematsu09]

O_O

...I just discovered the god of Power/Progressive Metal.

I need to grab their albums!!!!

[bastidepp2]

@kenuematsu09 right, that's what you just did. ^^ listen to "art of life", my advise

[WolfxDensetsu]

Dragonforce is shit live. Don't you guys ever compare that trash band to X Japan!

[bastidepp2]

@WolfxDensetsu no dragonforce was shit live. they changed...

[GEO2DOPE]

@bastidepp2 no they havent just cause you get a different singer dont mean there toooo fast for there own good they suck like i said only instrumental that was good by them was through the fire and the flames and not mention its soo overrated there overrated to honest

[bastidepp2]

@GEO2DOPE everybody speaks bad about them, so the times they were overrated are long gone^^. but i saw them live 1 or 2 years ago and they played their songs accurately. really. but their music is pretty special, so it's not everybodys style. but i think that such a band should exist. ;)

[GEO2DOPE]

@bastidepp2 who knows maybe they will be better with there new singer lets hope but until then iam not gonna like them until they make another mind blowing song

[GEO2DOPE]

@WolfxDensetsu i know right they were booed off stage just goes to show how shit they really are dog shit that is lmao

[sodiena]

Band is so amazing and video is so awesome.This video makes me cry, especially 1:30 when Hide smiles.

[Takiado]

omg... I like dragonforce, but these guys (X Japan) are just classics! They have been around for a long time now, they're one of the best in the world! Favorite band right here! Also, hide (guitarist, pink hair (Pink Spyder)) died in 09 or something like that... anyways, it was a while ago, and even then they weren't young.. so they're old guys now... they certainly dont look it, but still they've been around long before Dragonforce.

[falcon8752]

@Takiado hide died in 1998, it sure is a while ago.

[airriel]

何度聴いても素晴らしい！

ラストライブでの演奏は本当に魂が籠ってる！

WE ARE X!!!

46〜47歳でも第一線で活躍出来るYOSHIKIは素晴らしい­！

[MyThiNg94]

how old r they now?

[SpiralPegasus]

@MyThiNg94 They are all past their 40s... minus hide (lead guitarist, pink hair), who is currently busy rocking the heavens.

X has reunited a couple years ago, and they've done a tour through the entire world, too!!

[MyThiNg94]

@SpiralPegasus Niceee, how old is Hide then? Wow that's nice :D Are they the most popular band in Japan?

[SpiralPegasus]

@MyThiNg94 Rocking the heavens = he passed away. I was trying to make it sound less sad. He asked for his name to be purposefully spelt with lowercase h, by the way.

They are be one of Japan's most groundbreaking bands in history - in rock, at least. Truly grand; they have sold out the 55,000 seat Tokyo Dome 18 times.

Extravagant, unique, filled with energy, and musically? Definitely incredible. There are no two bands like X.

[MyThiNg94]

@SpiralPegasus Owww sorry!! I understand :(

Wow, that's impreesive. Have you always been a fan of them?

[SpiralPegasus]

@MyThiNg94 Not really. Started a couple years ago, and been a diehard fan since. I'm not afraid to say that ever since the day I've got to know them, every band I've heard after just pales in comparision.

I can't recall the name of any other song that has shaken me as much as Art of Life did the first time I heard it, and the six or seven times after that one...

[MyThiNg94]

@SpiralPegasus Wow.. so they're that good~ are you american?

I will check out those songs ;)

[SpiralPegasus]

@MyThiNg94 If you mean from America the continent, yes. Else, no, and I'm proud not to be :)

[MyThiNg94]

@SpiralPegasus Ok, where are you from then? ^^ oh, why are you proud not to be?

[Undimel]

<3<3<3

[srs7593]

I really do wish I could understand what Toshi is shouting.

[samahnord]

like western music asian music was better in the old days. fuck this mass produced money grubbin fucking no talanted garbage that the music industry puke out today. in south korea and japan today the music industry is all about good looks(idols) bad techno beats and randomly put together lyrics that couldn't make sense if so their life depended on it. the west is the same, u would need to dig thru a tremendous amount of shit to find anything decent produced today.

You Are X !! You Are X !!

[existxtrace19]

How the fuck can you people be comparing these guys to Dragonforce?

[kururusouchou22]

@existxtrace19 maybe because the two band is really good. i can say i most love x japan. because there are some twist when it becomes to their songs. like drama, rock etc. etc.. o men i love x japan :D

[falcon8752]

@existxtrace19 That's why I actually commented, I didn't expect that...

[Iker666beast]

My Pride as musician has been taken. I must kill myself

[bbaa2211]

Absoulotly from the best drummers in history

[siu2k7]

People are just jealous on how good X Japan are...

[nhi0703]

I was pretending playing drums when hearing this song and then i was sweating like crazy

[DREADHZITUH]

@nhi0703 dude, i do that 2! hahahaha i tought i was the only crazy person that pretended to drum xD

[curlyj49]

Saiko da!

[devilstrill]

@mukiichann

[shadowpal2]

@mukiichann

then get out of here and listen to your KPop...and stay there...and don't even plan to comment on any JRock or JPop videos for that matter saying "KPOP is better."

And because you voiced your opinion ...I'm going to voice mine: KPop is nothing but trash. There you have it. Simple as that...

;D

[uzumakicheti]

This is the most skilled band I know.

Sadistic Desire, Silent Jealousy,

[Makashi996]

BLUE BLOOD FTW

[alexis0524]

[teambritzaribal]

[toshsal]

[rampage222555]

@toshsal IT MEANS BLUE!!! just kidding

[xXxBandxXx0]

Xの動画見てるとヒデが死んでると実感しない

ヒデは生きてるんじゃないかと思います

X JAPANは永久不滅だ

[babyrabbitlovedbsk]

Kurenai's lyric & their situation at that time... I'm in tears Y____Y

[joseenriqueof]

@babyrabbitlovedbsk Me too when I look to the live version of Forever Love, damn that's an amazing song

[Ukeb0y]

I wish i could be there... and live when HIDE was there... just seeing them one time could make me realize something important of my life: i was there xD

[Zudi95]

What does Kurenai mean?

[sanake00]

@Zudi95 Crimson color

[Zudi95]

@sanake00 Thx (=

[aodolphin]

@Zudi95 - its crimson

[TokumaruShugo]

Dragonforce wannabes

[Maxamillian2326]

@TokumaruShugo i think someone needs to get their timeline checked out

[acapsta]

@TokumaruShugo X japan was before dragonforce :)

[Ukeb0y]

@TokumaruShugo Try learning that 1997 is 2 years before 1999

Happy studying

[falcon8752]

@TokumaruShugo And who cares if they would actually be "dragonforce wannabes" ? We're listening to X Japan here, not dragonforce. Just because you said that won't make us think "omg they must be awesome let's hate x japan now", you know ? ^^

[o0Kixx0o]

@falcon8752 you are right!!!! Dragonforce can never makes people cry, but X Japan, with endless rain, longing, tears, forever love... well, they can

btw WE ARE X!!!!!!

[TokumaruShugo]

@falcon8752 You're listening to X Japan who copied off Dragonforce. I don't care if you hate X Japan or not, they're posers. O_o

Garbage band is garbage.

[o0Kixx0o]

@TokumaruShugo you mean Dragonforce copied X Japan's music?

[falcon8752]

@TokumaruShugo Then let us enjoy our garbage band and go back to dragonforce. Thanks.

Btw, how could X japan (founded in 1982) copy dragonforce (founded in 1999) ? either you're wrong, or time machines actually are a common sight in our world. :P Why don't you agree they're both great bands who played a very similar sound, probably without even knowing each other ?

[Deleugyn]

@falcon8752 Sorry, I didnt catch the arguing from the beginning but I couldn't help noticing the discussion about DragonForce and X Japan. Particularly, I'm a fan of DragonForce for a while and I don't really know X Japan aswell. But it would be stupid to say that a live show like this doesn't kick DragonForce's ass. Herman is a really great guitarrist and all, but come on, look at this video.

[shanegx2009]

@falcon8752 you know dragonforce speeds up their guitar right

[bastidepp2]

@falcon8752 everybody knows X !!!



[Ninjistic]

lol only women in the crowd

[wellakoke]

1:29 คิดถึงรอยยิ้มนั้น

[xjapan00100]

do you think this band is capable to get Hall of Fame?

YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mysticx0]

damn they can rock! only japanese group i ever listened to was Loudness...saw them live with motley crue in 1985 :)

[j35734r5]

R.I.P Taiji.. one of my fave bassist..

[LoserCruiser43]

Can someone tell me why did hide died??? :(?

[TheVisualAkasuke]

@LoserCruiser43 He accidently hang himself, cause he was drunk and fell asleep with a towel around his neck... According to Yoshiki: He used the towel for a stress-release-exercise that they were practicing in the tour-bus.... So tragic X-(

In an interview May 2. 1998 (one day before his death) he said that he had a girlfriend, and on the bar were he was last seen, he had a girl with him too. 5 hours later - The Visual kei/Jrock wold lost a very important piece in a very wide puzzle.

[LoserCruiser43]

@TheVisualAkasuke oh ok thanks for that extremely clear explanation!!!!! tyty

[HILERIUS]

J-rock is better than K-Pop!!!:D

[hanszur]

@HILERIUS Thanks for stating the obvious.... kpop is just disgusting homosexual garbage :)

[rampage222555]

@hanszur kim se hwang and his love story would slap you in the face with his guitar

[hanszur]

@rampage222555 Go suck that fking korean shit dick... kim shit hwang?

[rampage222555]

@hanszur Kim se Hwang is one of the greatest asian guitarists of all time. even better than Hide and Sugizo even IMO. Dont hate stuff just because its korean. And it doesnt matter if any bands were gay, theyd certainly be better than your band if you have any musical talent at all. Youre sad

[AsianDramasRule]

@rampage222555 I totally agree with you. But, I don't think he's better than Sugizo. Definitely, he  has more technical ability than hide. xD But I think Sugizo might be a little better technically than him. xD But that doesn't matter. They are all sooooooooooooo great!!

[hanszur]

@rampage222555 Nobody gives a shit about your opinion.... much less about how you fantasize and masturbate about your homosexual porn star.

[AsianDramasRule]

@hanszur That is so disrespectful and rude. First of all, there is nothing disgusting about homosexuality, and K-pop is not disgusting. Did you know that Yoshiki even stated that he respected K-pop musicians because of their hard work and dedication to their music. That's why K-pop is one of the fastest growing music industries. And the music style in K-pop is good and unique. It produces more quality music than NEW visual Japanese rock or Japanese pop.

[hanszur]

@AsianDramasRule Kpop is gay faggot garbage.... don't post your homosexuality urges on the comments section on this video please... go to gay korean pop website please

[AsianDramasRule]

@hanszur No it's not. That is just your opinion. The music has substance. This has nothing to do with my "homosexual urges." I am merely saying Korean pop is good. By what criteria are you judging the music?

[hanszur]

@AsianDramasRule Precisely, faggot... It has an excellent substance in terms of satisfying your homosexual desires.....

Seriously stop trolling and just shut the fuck up and go back to your gay korean pop daydreams...

[AsianDramasRule]

@hanszur It doesn't "satisfy my homosexual desires." Don't be so ignorant. There is no reason to be so hostile against a group of people. I prefer X Japan over K-pop, but I do like K-pop. I am not trolling. That word is completely irrelevant here.

[anhquangloon]

@HILERIUS a thousand time indeed

[bournesh]

@HILERIUS Its kind of sad that this needs to be said.

[smashtavo15]

@HILERIUS obviously

[rossbear100]

[sorrowofdestiny2009]

@o0Kixx0o who's Justin Bieber anyway?

[Lyedel]

@o0Kixx0o WHO THE HELL CARES ABOUT JUSTIN BIEBER. Just...stop talking about him. Seriously.

[anakin13444]

33people don't play music in a band.

[elite055]

why did that dude kill himself? hes amazing on that axe.

respect from an a7x metalhead

[metalfoxkid12345]

@elite055 he didn't kill himself. At least it wasn't a suicide.

[renski1792]

@metalfoxkid12345 he hung himself.

[metalfoxkid12345]

@renski1792 It's 'hanged' my dear friend. Well, tell me this then. Which person would try to hang himself by a door knob and how do u even hang yourself while you are sitting down?

[renski1792]

@metalfoxkid12345 o well thanks for the correction. English isn't my first language. He probably took sleeping pills. When he fell asleep, his body moved down a little and thus he got choked by the rope or something else. I hate to say this, but my father killed himself pretty much the same way!

[metalfoxkid12345]

@renski1792 English isn't my 1st language as well. Well, it is more like he had too much to drink. And he choked himself with a towel. It is a practice used to relieve upper back and neck pains which guitarists can suffer from continuous use of a shoulder strap.

[rampage222555]

@renski1792 he didnt really hang himself, he choked with a towel and a doorknob. I dont think he killed himself because his old bandmates said they did an exercise to relieve back pain that required a towel and doorknob. And since he was drunk he probably fell asleep.

[renski1792]

@rampage222555 yea that may be it. idk.

[LeSaucissonFurtif]

Mouaip. La rythmique et les riffs sont bien bidons quand même..

[MyLukyLuk]

1:32 The most beautiful smile in the world..

[bagojosean]

[axoo68]

my god i get goosebumps watching this...... X japan forever

[Kiewicz92]

what does "kurenai" mean?

[farsouthmovement1]

@Kiewicz92

does not give

saying "kure!" to a japanese guy would translate to "Give that to me"

"nai" would be the english "not", so kurenai would be "give, not"

[redhandkerchief]

@farsouthmovement1

nice pun, but it actually means "crimson" as in the color

[farsouthmovement1]

@redhandkerchief

yeah I just found out. my apologies.

[redhandkerchief]

@Kiewicz92

"Crimson"

[swirlingorb]

People who's born a hater would always remain being a hater

because they are mad that they can't be as great as they are

even if they try, no one would notice them

For those who love X Japan will continue to love X Japan

and

We will never forget Hide..†

[ELIUDpnkmg20]

[jpelletier411]

a subhuman racist worm? you must be a big comic book collector, your words are hella funny, you are without a doubt a bonefide douchebag, huh, you must be related to these fags in x japan, oh yeah and technically you suck tiny japanese cock, homo

[microdon2]

Just heard about this band on Stern today. If they sold 30 million albums they must be doing something right.  But I'm not getting it. At all.

[maluse227]

@microdon2 well that doesnt mean that they arnt good there music is at the same level as some of the top composers ever known.

[microdon2]

@maluse227 - Don't you think if they were as good as the Beatles (the greatest pop\rock composers of all time) we would have heard of them? Hey, the band KISS has sold MILLIONS of albums, too. That doesn't mean they're great composers. They're good ENTERTAINERS.

[73743974]

i like this

yexey01vds

[jpelletier411]

pure garbage, gooks shouldnt try to make music

[maluse227]

@jpelletier411 the idiocy of your statement requires no counter argument you are just wrong in every way possible and are a horrible human being.

[jpelletier411]

@maluse227 eat shit fuckwad, i dont recall even talking to your faggot ass, so before you go around talking shit maybe you should join in on a conversation that involves you bitch

[jpelletier411]

@maluse227  X japan sucks and so do you

[maluse227]

@jpelletier411 o im sorry i dont listen to the views of a subhuman racist worm. whether you think they suck is irrelevant because technically they are amazing and nothing you say or think can change that.

[1darkonyx1]

31 people didn't feel the love of X Japan...

[Bakulaw03]
