This song is super unique, when it was my first listening I could feel the pain and despear that Ado want to express. Thanks for the video as always Tony 😊
Shoka is the only song she wrote/composed. The other single released at the same time was Sakura Biyori and Time Machine, which was written by Mafumafu. You should check out the live version of that song she posted to her youtube. It was recorded at the Japan National Stadium shows she did at the end of her last world tour, 24th song of the concert and she still sounds amazing!
Hooray! Was just listening to this in the car and was wondering when it'd get the Tony treatment-I remember liking it the first time but it has really grown on me more and more over time. Just so many little nuances in the composition.
She actually performed it back in April (sakura season), announced the CD release information on Hatsune Miku's birthday, released it on her own birthday and gave us the live performance of April after that so we can hop into the "time machine" that is that recording and go full circle regarding the title.
Shoka gets better with every time you listen to it.... (and not like I had to learn to like it, just the nuances become more apparent to my ignorant and uneducated ears ;) )
Great week for us Latinos, finally she will be on tour in Latin America, in my opinion she almost came to Argentina and nothing more nor less than in a Movistar arena, this girl is coming in a big way!!
Other stages around the world are very big venues too. I read that she said at the "Profile of Mona Lisa" tour in japan that she wanted to do a world tour of a scale that no Japanese artist has done before.
this is Tony's style, he wants to focus on the song and the instrumental more like he always does in all his videos, he will definitely look at the lyrics later
I love watching these videos. I listened to this song already but listening to it with you really helps me to appreciate all the little intricacies that come to creating these amazing songs. And whenever I listen to the song again, I think about all the things you highlight
I've learned to appreciate the instrumentals in Ado's music a lot more thanks to your reactions. Thank you for opening my ears to the music that's in tandem with Ado's vocals
I love your reactions Tony. Please, I would love to see your reaction listening to the song TOKYO CANNIBALISM made by biz with Ado's vocals, I believe this song will make you go crazy with the vocal range And the insane instrumental made by biz.💙
If it's about vocal range, her cover of Annoyance is a great one as well, I just can't get my head around how good she was five! years ago already at the age of 16/17. However, since this isn't a channel that focuses on vocals, I'm not sure if the compositional aspect of Annoyance can compare to the craziness of TOKYO CANNIBALISM, despite it being a good song.
She is also progressing as a producer. I watched the behind the scenes videos of her idol group and she is very professional in teaching the girls and handling the recording process
loved the vid and glad to see you back Tony :) I was watching your marathon of Ado's analyses, and I love the production perspective you bring to them! Although I can't believe you haven't reacted to 'Odo' by Ado. I think it's a song that you would really enjoy reacting.
When I first heard it, I just had to find out for which show it was. I've seen the trailer before the season, but put it on my "if I find the time"-list, but after randomly listening to the opening I was convinced that there had to be more budget and love in the show than I anticipated.
I love your channel and I've been checking out all the songs for years now. I think you'll really like a Japanese band called "Paris Match" they're a fusion jazz group I guess? Some of their best songs are "Voice" "Deep Inside"and "Jealousy"
Really was, her almost crying at points and having a bit of a lump in her throat, but still working around it and making it sound great made it all the more emotional and their harmony is actually crazy good.
You gotta react to Metaphor Refantazio's soundtrack! Same people that composed the Persona games!! It's completely different from the previous jazzy style tho
- Vogue: It seems like the original form of the song was there even before your debut. - Ado: "It's based on a song I wrote in the summer when I was around 16~17 years old. It was the first song I made on the guitar that I mentioned earlier, and it was called "Early Summer" at the time. I always wanted to write my own songs, but the world is full of great songs, and I became reluctant to write my own songs from scratch. However, as I became an adult, my knowledge and experience increased, and I can look at things more calmly than before, so I think I can write now."
Curious what your favorite college fight songs are Like Alabama, Florida State, Tennessee, Notre Dame, Wazzu's is cute... This is the intro to my favorite anime, Nana: th-cam.com/video/SB1NGyWxvlA/w-d-xo.html
I think it would be interesting for you to react to resident evil ps1 directors cut greatest hits version soundtrack and try to explain what the composer is trying to do here. Is this blind man really composing the music or did he have a ghost writer and he scribbled on sheet paper and just played random sounds on instruments. Would be funny to see your reaction😂
@DrumRollTonyReacts no he was faking it for many years but once you get a listen to the basement theme and how it sounds you will understand what I mean it's something alright...
I apologize the composer claimed to be deaf, and he had a ghost writer so I guess for that the games soundtrack took a bit of a hit from the original sound track to the greatest hits version but yeah it's very intriguing the story and the music might hurt your ears lol.
Hi, do you think you could react to Elisabeth Elderflame's (hololive EN vtuber with an AMAZING voice), the Ring of fire, Skyfall are amazing. Anyhow, keep up the great work!
and we are back!!
I will be live on Twitch Halloween night 👀Come say hello
www.twitch.tv/drumrolltony
you going to ado concert in seattle next july?
I think that it will be very interesting to make a video with a vocalist, where u react at Ado's music.
Waiting the day when you react to Boujaku no Charisma (Blue Lock again, Unison Square Garden again).
Fun fact. When she does this live, she is playing guitar for this song :D for some of the parts. Hope you can see her in Seattle!
I'm 100% going to the Seattle show
Yeah, sadly there is a video of it on TH-cam already.
Shoka lyrics are very important
I literally clicked on your channel last night wondering where your uploads have been, so glad you finally checked out Shoka!
Ive been checking your channel every day recently waiting for this. Its so good.
Thx for being here 🤘
This song is super unique, when it was my first listening I could feel the pain and despear that Ado want to express. Thanks for the video as always Tony 😊

Sold >140000 tickets for 2 days as well, more than 70000 people audience. Also read she was the first female solo artist that performed there.
Hooray! Was just listening to this in the car and was wondering when it'd get the Tony treatment-I remember liking it the first time but it has really grown on me more and more over time. Just so many little nuances in the composition.
Also, isn't it just unfair that someone who can sing like her can also compose like this?
Ability and skillset reflect investment and practice in said skillset. She put in the work
Man! You're the reason I love Ado. Big Fan of Yours I Am. Keep Up the Good Work.
She did a song with Hatsune Miku for her birthday! I think that vocals are amazing and you should totally check it out
+ the live version.!
She actually performed it back in April (sakura season), announced the CD release information on Hatsune Miku's birthday, released it on her own birthday and gave us the live performance of April after that so we can hop into the "time machine" that is that recording and go full circle regarding the title.
I can't wait for the show in Seattle. I'll see you there
yeahhhhhhh we are back. hahahaha. been waiting long for this.
Another great video, I'm so hype for Ado, she is going to come to Argentina!
Shoka gets better with every time you listen to it....
(and not like I had to learn to like it, just the nuances become more apparent to my ignorant and uneducated ears ;) )
That's how you know the song is good
Ado wrote and composed several songs when she was a teenager before her debut, but they remained unreleased, and this seems to be one of them.
I hope we see more of them
She rewrote it a bit for the release, at least from what I've read.
I was waiting for you to react to this one ❤
Thanks for the breakdown!!
Can’t wait to see what her future compositions will bring!
Great week for us Latinos, finally she will be on tour in Latin America, in my opinion she almost came to Argentina and nothing more nor less than in a Movistar arena, this girl is coming in a big way!!
Other stages around the world are very big venues too. I read that she said at the "Profile of Mona Lisa" tour in japan that she wanted to do a world tour of a scale that no Japanese artist has done before.
Yessss been waiting for you to react to this one!
people keep turning off the lyrics for this song but they are so so important ahh
Yeah but if you're reacting to music it makes sense to not listen to the lyrics. I'm not gonna listen to the lyrics til I
learn Japanese for myself
@ no i think music is more than just sound, lyrics are very important especially for this song in particular
this is Tony's style, he wants to focus on the song and the instrumental more like he always does in all his videos, he will definitely look at the lyrics later
@@tomtombak. i get that but it’s important for this song, that’s all i’m saying.
I love watching these videos. I listened to this song already but listening to it with you really helps me to appreciate all the little intricacies that come to creating these amazing songs. And whenever I listen to the song again, I think about all the things you highlight
That's the correct way to use this channel. 👏
I've learned to appreciate the instrumentals in Ado's music a lot more thanks to your reactions. Thank you for opening my ears to the music that's in tandem with Ado's vocals
This was very enjoyable, I really hope u also react to the other song on this album, Sakura biyori and time machine, there's also a live version!
Very interesting song. Great review Tony.
There is also second new song from her. Also LIVE version of it.
I love your reactions Tony. Please, I would love to see your reaction listening to the song TOKYO CANNIBALISM made by biz with Ado's vocals, I believe this song will make you go crazy with the vocal range And the insane instrumental made by biz.💙

She absolutely cooked! Can't wait to see how she progresses in this aspect now in addition to her already incredible vocals.
She is also progressing as a producer. I watched the behind the scenes videos of her idol group and she is very professional in teaching the girls and handling the recording process
I hadn't heard this...OMG it is amazing.
100% agree that you should go back and listen actively the song you love! That's one of the reasons why I appreciate your analysis!
Que genial es la música de ado hermanooo 🔥🔥
The lyrics are really sad, it goes very well with the music video and the context of her writing this as a 17 years old.
loved the vid and glad to see you back Tony :)
I was watching your marathon of Ado's analyses, and I love the production perspective you bring to them! Although I can't believe you haven't reacted to 'Odo' by Ado. I think it's a song that you would really enjoy reacting.
Should have listened to this song with lyrics
Are you new to my channel? 🤔
@@DrumRollTonyReacts I am, and may I ask why? is it because you just wanna focus on the music without the bias from the lyrics?
_From __#PureTuber_
Let's gooo!!
Your pronunciation of japanese names is actually pretty good
She's coming back to the US next year what show are you trying to attend this time around.
I really want to see a reaction to the Link Click intros and outros. Especially the season 2 opening.
Did we had a reaction on "春日影 (MyGO!!!!! ver.)" already on this channel? It's so beautiful
If you havent already you should checkout the opening for orb: on the movements of the earth. Its great
When I first heard it, I just had to find out for which show it was. I've seen the trailer before the season, but put it on my "if I find the time"-list, but after randomly listening to the opening I was convinced that there had to be more budget and love in the show than I anticipated.
You go to Chris for vocal analysis and Tony for music analysis
If you watch both, you can appreciate the song more
Exactly what I'm doing 👍
I love your channel and I've been checking out all the songs for years now. I think you'll really like a Japanese band called "Paris Match" they're a fusion jazz group I guess? Some of their best songs are "Voice" "Deep Inside"and "Jealousy"
some of the vocal deliveries remind me of with me with from black knight
So exited for this. You should listen to Sakura biyori and the Time Machine, also from ado and in colaboration with Hatsune Miku.
I don’t think he’ll like it much due to the volcaloid
More ado please 🎉🎉🎉
You should check out her cover of 'villain' by stella jang , it is really good and she uses calm voice in that
would love if u check that out
React to sakura biyori and time machine, the live performance is greaaaaat
Really was, her almost crying at points and having a bit of a lump in her throat, but still working around it and making it sound great made it all the more emotional and their harmony is actually crazy good.
Check out op of "About The Movements Of Earth". Really good, anime taken place in medieval Poland
you should check out Hippocampal Pain - Zutomayo if you haven't yet

Welcome back Drumrolltony. Can you please check out Undertale yellow boss osts?
This song made me scare twise, firstly, when I listen and watching wo subtitles from first couplet, secondly, when I check lyrics...
I hope she is ok
It's mostly about the state of mind she was in when she was 16, but yeah, I was still pretty worried as well.
@@SinceroOdio "when she was 16" you say, but in MV we see attributes from post-debut epoch, e.g. cage for performances

I think it would be interesting for you to react to resident evil ps1 directors cut greatest hits version soundtrack and try to explain what the composer is trying to do here. Is this blind man really composing the music or did he have a ghost writer and he scribbled on sheet paper and just played random sounds on instruments. Would be funny to see your reaction😂
Is the composer actually blind? Maybe they have extreme keyboard and piano skill sets and were able to dictate an orchestration that way
@DrumRollTonyReacts no he was faking it for many years but once you get a listen to the basement theme and how it sounds you will understand what I mean it's something alright...
I apologize the composer claimed to be deaf, and he had a ghost writer so I guess for that the games soundtrack took a bit of a hit from the original sound track to the greatest hits version but yeah it's very intriguing the story and the music might hurt your ears lol.
@@OMGItsNormal So deaf or blind? Lol you saying two things here
