Bobby. Don't sell yourself short. You are more than "just a reactor". You are one of the best ones. Keep going. You're doing a great job.
Can only but agree. I only follow reactors who know their stuff. In Bobby's case because I know he's a musician and plays drums. I'm so tired of reactors who shouting and are "positive" about everything just to get followers.
One of the best ones - Very true.
Agree 100%
Thanks to all of you. The “Just Another Reactor” name came to me when I was trying to think of a catchy name for my channel and in my mind I was thinking “I want to think of a good name so that people won’t think that I’m just another reactor on TH-cam”. When I thought that I just thought it was kinda funny so I stuck with that. 🙂
@@JustAnotherReactor Have you seen Yoyoka's Jamiroquai [Virtual Insanity] drum cover ??? Incredible drumming
It's amazing to see her from being a child prodigy (the scientific definition is: a child at age 10 or lower doing something at an adult level) to what she is now....
"Kaneyai Yoyoka" is the name for the band when the whole family is involved. :)
Thank you for this reaction. You’re the only reactor I’ve seen that mentioned about Neil’s kit. I’ve always commented that it’s amazing how Yoyoka covered and do the song justice while having a limited gear not like Neil had. It would’ve not been easy esp. playing it by ear like she always does. I would also say that on most of her covers, she always put a little of her own style. It’s subtle and if you’re not familiar with the song or a drummer, you won’t notice it, but the song somehow seemed to sound ‘fuller’. For me, she enhances it and that way, it elevates the song. She makes the song much better than the original i.e. Steam but never deviates from the original sound. Again, thank you. Looking forward to more of your Yoyoka reactions. ✌🏼
Another great rection. I've loved this little lady for a few years now. Such talent.
Another very enjoyable reaction Bobby. I glad to hear you are going to react to Mistreated. Yoyoka playing along with these unbelievable musicians is a sight to behold so I can’t wait for your thoughts. It’s great to see Yoyoka’s die hard supporters commenting on your channel, you are certainly doing something right. Has Yoyoka commented yet? I would be surprised if she hasn’t. I’m sure she will if she is aware. Thank you. Pat 🏴
Yoyoka just plain rocks!
Thanks for your reaction to her cover; it adds more drum music knowledge for me. I am getting a mosaic of drum music knowledge from a number of drummer reactions to her covers, and of course watching her cover songs I get a more deeper appreciation of drumming in many of classic rock songs she covers. So when I go back to the original I too can pick out the little intricacies of the song, not just drumming, but of all the instruments. Plus she’s a joy to watch as she grows and develops. I play rhythm guitar well and sometimes have difficulty picking up on the lead guitar stuff. But following her, and other reactors of her I am improving my music ear little by little.
That’s an interesting take. Good luck on your guitar/ music journey.
Yoyoka: it is, power, precision, rhythm and the pleasure of playing a beautiful piece of music with pleasure and a smile, it fills me with joy every time. She is really out of the ordinary, it's unbelievable. Thank you very much Bobby your the best.
I think that video when she was little was one of her first compositions, "Happy." It's certainly not hard rock, but it's got its own charm
I'm glad you listened to it again with the video synced. This is one of my favorite Yoyoka covers. Thanks for the review. And thanks to Byron!
Listening to it synced gave me an even higher appreciation of her playing this song. And the appreciation was already pretty high.
The title "Good Times, Bad Times" features a great double kick that's awesome.
Thanks Bobby!. I listen to learn and watch new reactions to my favorite musician (yes, she can play multiple instruments such as in her covers of "Come Together" and "Here, There and Everywhere". She is getting more and more proficient on the other instruments and has a good voice with an adorable accent). Yoyoka is often adding her flourishes to the songs she covers (Burn is one example exception). From what we know, Yoyoka learns songs note for note and then will add a gentle touch of her own. It has been called the "Yoyoka Effect" by her fans. An example is in her cover of "'Virtual Insanity"s by Jamiroquai. She added in the Purdie shuffle to the song. It fit perfectly. I am really looking forward to your next Yoyoka reaction.
An early example of her playing multiple instruments has her playing both keyboards and drums in the same song. It is live on stage. She was 6 years old - th-cam.com/video/S5ZjPTnqT7M/w-d-xo.html. She was using ghost notes at that time. Her mother Rie is singing. Such a nice voice. Afikumi, her dad, is likely on bass. Might be fun just to watch just for enjoyment. (Rie has quite a range of vocals. She really shows her rocker side on the Rage Against the Machine cover of "Killing in the Name" - th-cam.com/video/slPcweQ_Bg4/w-d-xo.html. Live on stage cover of "Bulls on Parade" is also cool - th-cam.com/video/uriITHI950M/w-d-xo.html ).
Oh. And I did not mean to imply that drummers are not musicians. :)
Thanks again Byron. I’ll definitely be reacting to more from Yoyoka.
Byron, thank you for supporting Bobby and his channel. You're a great 'patron of the arts'. 😃
I am very fond of Yoyoka's covers of Jamiroquai. I'm continuously amazed at her grasp of 'funk', and her ability to bring it to songs that didn't seem so funky. To be fair, I'm very fond of everything Yoyoka plays, and her drum course. She's a great human being. 👍👍 Best wishes to you for 2022. ☮️
@@gbulmer I like supporting Bobby, not just for Yoyoka, but I am listening to his other reactions as well.
@@byronbutterfield I appreciate that.
Great job sir! Thank you and thank you Byron! The KANEAIYOYOKA video you are referring to is called "Happy" YOYOKA wrote the Lyrcis to that song. KANEAIYOYOKA is the name of her family band which she became a full fledged member of at Age 5-6. Previously the band name was KANEAI. This song is very popular among YOYOKA fans and is frequently requested or played when they do live performances. A VERY FUN SONG!
The gap between audio and video was likely caused by your Bluetooth connection.
Yoyoka is a gem and a blessing. The great thing about the internet is not that we get exposed to all these prodigies.
We know they exist in the world and there are many more out there.
The amazing thing about TH-cam is that we get to see these prodigies grow up. We see their raw talent grow and become something amazing.
I compare this to seeing John Bonham perform Moby Dick at Royal Albert Hall in 1970. The world was not ready for John Bonham, but he conquered the planet anyways.
The sound and video timing seems to be spot on from here.
I think it was an issue with my computer and in ears. It played fine through my speakers and sounded awesome.
Yoyoka is a well known classic
Another stellar cover by Yoyoka. Makes it look easy and looks like she's having a ball doing it. So impressive! No lag on my connection - syncing is bang on.
Great stuff! You can't go wrong with Yoyoka. The Kaneaiyoyoka stuff is the family band I believe which is also very good. I'm sure you would enjoy it as well. Hope to see more from Yoyoka, Junna and Senri Kawaguchi.
I imagine that it has occurred to you that you are listening to the next musical, precussional genius in this century - or this generation -LOL! She's the bomb.
Her process is to learn the song as originally played, then add what her fans call "The YOYOKA Effect". Everything she does is intentional. Generally, this makes the song sound better than the original. She has been advising local Japanese bands since she was 6 y.o. how to play songs better....and they take her advice and agree after trying it.
Yeah - she has a very cute drum course. She starts with an encouraging YEAAAH! Drum course nummer 12. Then you get her wisdom. And it is serious stuff. You can e.g. learn how she do swivel kick, which is a bit different than normal. Lastly she says. That was the end of drum course number 12. Bye! You can also learn how to best make triplets or dance beat or hard beat. And also how to record covers. Or how to tune the snare.
You have to understand that this little genius do all herself. Everyone assumes it is her parents that do the filming and setting up everything. It is not. The parents even do not choose songs. She search and find the songs she like. At the age of 7-8 or so. And then arrange them. And learn them. And record them. And upload them.
@@rolandkarlsson7072 Yes, thank you. She is so funny in her drum courses. In one she says "Now pay attention!" and in another, very seriously, "Dad, point the camera over here." If you mess up, she gives you "The Look" to let you know she caught your mistake. She only needs 2-3 listens for most songs before she can play them. I've witnessed her set ups in person. At the Spring Japanese Festival in Las Vegas in April , the Pearl Rep showed up at the festival and offered to set the drums up, but her and her father wanted to do it themselves. I went to the Silk Sonic concert with her on the 25th of March in Las Vegas. Very fun to watch her watching them. Because I was with her, I got to go backstage with her and her father and meet Anderson.Paak. Very cool guy. When they recorded Led Zep's "The Ocean", the others were already there when she and Ellen arrived. The kit was already set up (not her kit). She sits down, adjusts the throne and the kit pieces, banged out a few notes, tweaked the tuning a bit and then announced she was ready. Only took a few minutes. Awesome talent and all around wonderful little lady.
Your personal history with rock is interesting and I like hearing about it.
You should check her out doing steam by Peter Gabriel. She puts Bonham licks in there. It’s killer.
I’ll would also like to suggest Anesthetize by Porcupine Tree. It’s a long song but Gavin Harrison is an amazing drummer and the song is killer. Here’s the link if you want to check it out. th-cam.com/video/kgwgtERCVI4/w-d-xo.html
Been watching her for a few years now. She usually adds her own spin to things. Robert Plant reacted to one of her "Good times bad times" videos when she was 8 years old. I'm sure that Pearl would give her some small toms if she wanted some. I've seen her on several different drum kits. Rock on man.
Regarding your comments, they sound sincere and genuine. That is not always considered in critique these days.
Very nice! She's pretty damn awesome. When I first heard Rush, I wasn't a big fan. Something about Geddy Lee's vocals just didn't vibe with me. Once I got used to his voice, they became one of my favorite bands.
Awesome! You can’t say this isn’t a good job. Cmon
Did I say that?
No.. I’m just saying that to people that might say negative things. I loved your reaction video!
Love Yoyoka and your reactions. Thank you so much
WELL DONE SIR STICK WITH HER AND YOU WONT GO WRONG, A GOOD JOB AS ALWAYS ,PS DONT UNDER SELL YOUR SEN.
One thing you will learn about Yoyoka is that she listens to what she records. She does not put out videos which are lacking or where she did the best she could. You will not find another drummer in her age group who puts so much of theirself into drumming as she does. Her only weakness is she still cannot drum off of sheet music. She can read it, but she cannot keep a beat. She still plays off of ear. She drums to the song and does not drum along with a song. If she deviates from a particular groove, it is intentional, not coincendital. A lot of drummers will screw up fills or just butcher them, but she has a studio type listen to music ear. Sometimes, she will change the rift, sometimes she won't.
This is an example of how she will change a song,

Cool. I had never seen that last tribute video.
Some trivia about the next to last link (a cover of GTBT). There are three great artists playing on the song. Tony Franklin was the bassist for Jimmy Page's band following the end of Led Zeppelin, The Firm. Mr. Jimmy had Jimmy Page come see him when he was in Japan. There is a video of the visit - th-cam.com/video/qF3Ds0RK5TA/w-d-xo.html. Paulie Z has a great voice. He has sung on two other Yoyoka covers, Ozzy's Over the Mountain and Mr. Big's Take Cover (Billy Sheehan, of Mr. Big, is the bassist on the track. He also played on the Yoyoka and the Soma family's original song, Utopia).
@@byronbutterfield I am glad that he is doing her covers, but I would like to see him do some of her playing live. She is more than a drummer, Yoyoka is a musician. As I am sure you are aware, playing covers is one things, but playing with a live band is very different. She has enough studio and stage time to sound good with any band.
Just so you know, there are a number of her videos we are missing from the Japanese side of youtube.
Couple years ago, she did a serious love song on primetime with a couple Japanese singers. Great performance but just fell through the cracks. That is just one that comes to mind. She did another instrumental of a Zep tune on primetime with a sax player and a band. The sax was the vocals for the song. They just don't seem to get past the pacific wall for some reason.
@@tibetbill Agreed. That is why I requested Bobby to cover Mistreated. Got to start somewhere (should Bobby want to continue in the future). Has there been any success with VPN access to Japanese youtube? I tried once trying to access another site with my VPN, but no go. Sounds like a challenge to be overcome :) I have been known to be tenacious.
@@byronbutterfield Not so far. There was a merger between Sapporo TV and another entity a couple of years ago. After the merger, a lot of Yoyoka's performances disappeared from Japanese youtube. Like, overnight.
I am sure that she and her family have copies of her performances. Part of the issue is that they may not have the rights to repost some of the performances.
I can say that there was one two years ago, just when covid stated. Yoyoka was going to play in a jazz ensemble one night in Tokyo, I believe. A famous German bassist was flying in for the performance but something wasn't correct with his visa so he got turned around at the airport. A mad scramble was made to find another bassist who was Juna Serita. They compromised and played Nirvana tunes for the evening.
I like Juna Serita and thought that, maybe, she and Yoyoka could form a breakout band. Rie is very traditional as a Japanese woman.
As you are probably aware, both ladies went to NAMM. Shortly thereafter, this came out.
th-cam.com/video/AeWbAF9H3ws/w-d-xo.html
I think, in this case, the collaboration performance between Yoyoka and Juna disappeared more because of Rie than anything else.
But I will post whatever I can find from the Japanese side when the opportunity presents itself.
Yoyoka did a jazz performance witj Kozo Suganuma not too long ago, Kozo is Senri's drum teacher. She is up on stage with Kozo and Satoko Yumoto. Well worth the watch.
th-cam.com/video/fEBXiBgWjJ0/w-d-xo.html
This was all I could find. She has been on TV a lot, so all I can tell you is something is going on where you cannot access any of her performances. Even her commercials have disappeared.

www.youtube.com/watch?v/kJs9fxRO954
This is all that is left of her Superwoman commercial
th-cam.com/video/rEu6xqb3B5Y/w-d-xo.html
I tried to find the videos of her on Japanese youtube, just not there. If I find any of them, I will send you some of the highlights.
@@tibetbill thanks
Her Queen covers are also great and rarely reacted to.
my fav mt is stone cold crazy the tv version killer.
@@michaelirons5662 Me too. Short but sweet.
@@ThePallidor yes mt short and sweet but uber kick ass.
Yoyoka ain't a drummer, she is THE DRUM!! Rock on Yoyo!!!🤘🏽
She makes it all look so easy but this is really complicated drumming.
iirc she said this was the most challenging drum cover she has done.
@@semprini77 burn by Deep Purple was difficult too
how many drummers have drum sets like Neil's, his set was insane
she just loves to play
Good times bad time please. The 8yr old version.
And the Robert Plant reaction to it - th-cam.com/video/-XYr6H2mGxk/w-d-xo.html
There’s a Robert Plant reaction?
@@JustAnotherReactor Yep. Link above. It is short, but sweet. Link to 8yo GTBT - th-cam.com/video/91pz1E8pAOY/w-d-xo.html
I think he was genuinely impressed. Not just humoring her.
Great reaction!! You MUST do one for Yoyoka playing Good Times Bad Times . A warning though. She does at least 4 versions. I think her first was when she was 7 years old. There is also one where there is a reaction to her by Robert Plant!! His comments are gold! Not downplaying your reaction kind sir. If you have the time just go to her channel and sort them by "Most viewed" and they should all be near the top as they are awesome.
I love the epic cinematic opening of the graphics of your name. Funny and ironic! Love your soft spoken style. Yeah her song Happy is just that . . . like a big dose of antidepressant joy! Written by Yoyoka and performed by Kaineyoyoka (sp?) her family band. Goofy and HAPPY! YYZ and Burn were the songs that to my mind put here on the Top 500 list of Drummers of all time by Drummerwotld's website. The youngest person ever so honored!
Thanks. I created the opening using the Element 3D plugin in After Effects.
Fantastic..Goods Jobs..😊👍🤘🙏
Neil is looking down on this with a great big grin on his face.
Love when she breaks and grooves 😅
Bluetooth speakers and headphones are great for listening to music... but bad for watching movies and videos. There's always going to be sync problems. Use wired headphones or speakers. For music video reactions, I'd suggest a nice set of studio quality, over-the-ear headphones.
I've never noticed sync issues before. Not this bad anyway. I thought there was on one of my Floor Jansen reactions but learned when I played it through my speakers that it was the video itself.
Neil Peart was interviewed by Eddie Trunk and Neil confirmed that his last name is pronounced P-ear-t.. Meaning that the 'ear' is pronounced like the part of body that you listen to Rush with.. the ear 👍👂
Byron sounds like a smart guy.
I am blown away.
As was I.
🆘 MY HEAD IS BLOWING UP ☝
Yoyoka is proof of reincarnation
The kick - snare timing is tight.
Neil: "God, may I please be reincarnated ??"
God: "Yes. but you must go back as pre-teen Japanese female prodigy".
Reaction at 18:25- oh yes
Yoyokas high road easy by sass jordan
She kills Sassy J.!!!
Good reaction man, learn more from you than other reactors. Yoyoka has a couple of covers of Good Times Bad Times at different ages. Might be to show how she has changed over time. The version when she is 8 is the first one (I think). I love her drum lesson videos, this one is great - Yoyoka Drum Course #13 “Bass Drum Triplet Without Downbeat at: th-cam.com/video/B5EUmV9Jz-E/w-d-xo.html
Didn't know you are a drummer, just wondering if you have reacted to JUNNA yet? I couldn't find anything. She is a pretty awesome drummer: th-cam.com/video/UKr1H4Jv6is/w-d-xo.html
I have one of Junna's videos on my list of songs to react to.
@@JustAnotherReactor Cool man, looking forward to it.
PS CHECK OUT THE GREAT KAT, SHES KIN AWESOME ULTRA FAST GUITAR PLAYER, BETHOVENS 5 MEGA.
Since you and I are Maiden fans I have another young Japanese woman that does some fantastic covers.
Try Junna's cover of Genghis Kahn. I guarantee you won't be disappointed.
th-cam.com/video/mp-_mwTeIpY/w-d-xo.html
I mentioned Junna to him on another reaction and even mentioned the Iron Maiden cover. Most will recommend her cover of Through the Fire and Flames, but Genghis Khan is better, imo. Anything by Junna is fantastic though.
@@jamesmcclung153 Yes, Junna is a fantastic drummer. Just to mention her cover of Ashes of the Dawn, I mean watch her footwork there. I just get stressed thinking about it!
@@LostAgain1970 Junna is very.very Good.
I’m going to react to Junna soon but I didn’t know she covered Genghis Khan. Is that the one you mentioned James? I love that song. I will definitely react to that.
@@JustAnotherReactor Yea, that's one of the ones I mentioned. I think you'll absolutely love it.
Thanks Bobby, for super reaction/insight-video. __Wondering on something, does she hit the hi-hat on both underside & onTop ? (at playback-pos.17min45sec)..
th-cam.com/video/CMnAUZNpx9E/w-d-xo.html ..Thanks again (..just love following Yoyoka and seeing her development trough the years)
She’s actually just playing a simple 4/4 beat at that point. She doesn’t ever hit the high hat from the bottom.
Bobby Yoyoka I Suggest listening to Ocean By Led Zeppelin On Ellen Plays Base, Yoyoka On Drums,
Ellen Bass, Eva Singing And Mateo On Lead Guitar And Ellen Dad (Hovak) Professional Guitar Player
And does her Video's Producer. Ellen Has Done Rush, Led Zeppelin, Metallica and You Should Listen
To her as I understand Yoyoka Has Moved to The USA ? so maybe More Yoyoka in The Future

It's pounced "peer-it", my brother.
It is out of synch by one-fifth of a second but you can hear it!
Very creative!! Don't get left behind - Promo`SM !
