“I don't expect for people to like the same things, so I don't feel a need to force people to understand who we are.”

“We came to be Babymetal after receiving a divine message from the Fox God.”

“Gabrielle Aplin is one of my favourites.”

“We feel it's really interesting to see how our music translates to such a broad audience.”

“A collaboration with Rob Halford, the 'Metal God,' has always been my dream. I never imagined that dream would come true!”

“I have a sweet tooth, yeah.”

“I cherish our songs in both Japanese and English.”

“I always put my best into our live performances and most of all it is always important for us to keep true to what we do as BABYMETAL.”

“We already knew that Glastonbury is one of the largest music festivals. We always wanted to perform here, and it's like a dream. It's really amazing.”

“When people saw us for the first time they were just open-mouthed. Then they really got into it and started wearing Babymetal T-shirts.”

“Our goal is not to be number one. Our aim is to be the only one.”

“We always do this fox sign that appears in our choreography very often. Our fans enjoy doing this sign together at our shows.”

“We are aiming to create a one and only new music genre that exceeds the limits of pop and metal music.”

“For me, every time I step on the stage it feels like a battle is about to start. It's not like we're going on stage to fight against our audience obviously, because for me, when I go on stage, I'm always trying to reach a new level of how am I going to make today a great night for everyone that's present.”

“We're girls and we're feminine so it naturally comes into the music but at the same time we intentionally put beauty and females and also Japanese culture J-pop into the music so it creates unique music.”

“Through our concerts and tours, we learned that our music is capable of bringing people together, breaking borders and genres. To symbolize all of that, we decided to sing 'The One' in English.”

“Eating good food energizes me.”

“British fans are very warm-hearted.”

“The only place to find out what Babymetal is about and what Babymetal aims to do, you have to come out to a show.”

“The crowd at Download Festival always welcomes us with a lot of energy so I can't wait to perform there again!”
