The Week I Review | Babymetal is much more than its gimmick | Band Review @TheWeekIReview | Uploaded September 2019 | Updated October 2024, 19 hours ago.
Entry 56: In the five years since I first saw Babymetal perform, a lot has changed. Most of it has been for the better. This video was originally claimed by Amuse, Inc despite being fair use; ultimately, I decided to cut out the two short sections because it wasn't worth the fact that 3% of my audience was fully blocked from seeing it.

One of the two removed sections was a short clip of Gimme Chocolate, and the other was one of two parts of Iine! (it was less than three seconds, despite what some folks think about timing with Content ID). This block wrecked the video, which had the best start of any one of my videos by an incredible margin and flat-lined afterwards. I should have just made the cuts back then. C'est la vie.
