Amore -Aoboshi- is a song from BABYMETAL's second original album, METAL RESISTANCE, by Suzuka Nakamoto.

Babymetal is a Japanese kawaii metal band. The band consists of Suzuka Nakamoto as "Su-metal" (Vocal and Dance) and Moa Kikuchi as "Moametal" (Scream and Dance). The band is produced by Kobametal from the Amuse talent agency. Their vocals are backed by heavy metal instrumentation, performed by a group of session musicians known as the "Kami Band" at performances.
Metal Resistance is the second studio album by Japanese heavy metal band Babymetal. It was first released on March 29, 2016, in Japan through BMD Fox Records, and on April 1, 2016, worldwide through earMusic, RED Associated Labels (RAL), and Sony Music Entertainment. Most work for the album began in 2014, shortly after the release of the band's debut album Babymetal. The members of the band describe the album as more diverse in heavy metal, with the recurring theme acquired while on tour.

Metal Resistance received generally positive reviews from music critics. The album managed to peak at number two on the Oricon Weekly Chart with first-week sales of 132,881 units, and has since been certified gold with over 230,000 copies sold in Japan. In the United States, the album debuted at number 39 on the Billboard 200, the highest rank for a Japanese artist since Kyu Sakamoto in 1963, with first-week sales of 12,914 units, and became the band's second album to top the World Albums chart. In the United Kingdom, it peaked at number fifteen on the UK Albums Chart, the highest position reached by a Japanese band. Two songs from the album—"Road of Resistance" and "Karate"—were released as singles prior to the album's release, and charted on the Billboard World Digital Songs chart.

Materials for the album formed around 2013, including the chorus from "Amore" and a live performance of the song "No Rain, No Rainbow", which did not appear on the band's debut album. More music, such as the opening track "Road of Resistance" was written after the release of the eponymous album, mainly during the Babymetal World Tour 2014. Kobametal explained that most of the songwriting coincided with the band's performances of the new songs before the album, with a constant need to tweak the music or lyrics before the official release.

In an interview by Gigwise, when asked about the meaning of the album title, lead vocalist Suzuka Nakamoto explained, "isn't about us resisting against anything as such, but in the last year of our activities it does feel like we're battling against something every time we step on stage". She said, concerning the sound in comparison to their debut album: "This album contains a lot more new and different types of metal that we've never done before. We've grown so much in the music that we do, and this album sounds a little bit older and more mature. It's been two years since the last one, and you can really hear our journey on this record." She further explained that “metal resistance” has been a recurring theme, often mentioned on their world tours. With the ideas of exploring what they can do, and their primary message of Metal Resistance, which is "to get everyone to come together as one", the name was chosen as it was the representation of the band at the time.

Comparing the record to the band's previous album, Yui Mizuno explained the band's challenge toward more music genres than before, as well as the inclusion of more positive lyrics. With the desire to send messages to the fans, the band also recorded a song in English, specifically "The One". As a result, more people would get to listen to the band's music. In a Loudwire interview, Moa Kikuchi described her experiences and feelings toward their sophomore release.

We were on the road touring for two years so we had a lot of confidence in the album. To be honest, we were anxious if we could make a better album than the previous album, but when I listened to the finished new Metal Resistance, it was such an interesting new album I was relieved and definitely full of confidence.

When asked about the decision to release two different versions of the album for the Japanese and international release, Kobametal stated that he did not want to deal with editions of the song having bonus tracks. "Syncopation" had a significantly Japanese feel to it, so it would present a more Japanese quality to the track listing. On the other hand, the song "From Dusk Till Dawn" contains elements of electronic dance music inspired by Skrillex, with inspiration from the bands Linkin Park and Bring Me the Horizon. This song seemed quite different from anything else in the band's repertoire, so the two track listings could tell two different stories starting from "Road of Resistance" and ending with "The One".
