To me it doesn't really seem like One Ok Rock is changing, just broadening their horizons. Yes Ambitions had some more pop like songs on it such as Bedroom Warfare, but it also has songs such as Bombs Away which still carry the same vibe that old One OK Rock songs do, but it feels like those get brushed over because some songs are different. Variety is good, it gives bands a chance to figure out what they do and don't like, what they want to stick to and what they don't, but most importantly - what to do next.
They can change if they want, but you can't force people to like it and it's not being close-minded to not liking it. And you can't blame people that follow them since "keep it real" (or later) to just feel that now they are a random rock band, that make random rock songs that are not different from the others. Because we loose why we love them and what make them different (and it's not only bc they are japanese) . It's not a bad thing, it's not a good thing, it's a choice. They loose lots of the "old fans" and earns new. And as they haven't to always do the same style, we don't have to follow them whatever they do. And you can't say that they change because they want to or because they are "broadening". They did what every japanese band/artist do when they want to break trough US.
If you look at who they, One ok Rock, are friends with in the industry you will see most of their friends like playing with sound. I don't like OOR fans who call out OOR sellouts which I seen plenty of times. First of all, they do not fit the definition at all, second of all if a group stays the same they never grow. I was introduced to OOK through Taka photobombing another group's singer and I must say I really do like OOR because they sound like they are having fun.
I really understand where people are comming from with the old OOR stuff, but like you can't expect them to sound the same after all this years, people grow up, change, experiment... I think they are great musicians, and that's all that really matters in my opinion (:
OOR aren't changing actually. Not for real atleast. They want to become bigger and more international, which I get. It does mean their newer songs sounds a bit more american, especially the last album. The newest one called change was for a honda commercial, so I don't count that one.
Deeper Deeper is on Jinsei x Boku = and MLF is on 35xxxv, so Ryan should have listened to them already since he said he's bought Jinsei x Boku = and later.
Nobody's home , wherever you are , 完全感覺dreamer ....... I listened these song many times in my secondary school . I always remember my school life when I hear the one ok rock
You should check out Mr Gendai Speaker, Taka's vocal are the most impressive on this one and the song sounds very different from their other stuff, very progressive. Also from their very older stuff, Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupido is great and Living Dolls too.
Wow great video! Their debut era are also wonderful. Lead guitar was not Toru, he was playing rhythm guitar and rap. I'd like to recommend "Keep it real" and "yume yume" to you xD
Let me tell you in a really old OOR's day, Toru is rapping and they have another guitarist. So there is another old ver. Of OOR you should react XD Try keep it real, yumeyume, and koukai yaku ni tatazu but it seems like yt doesn't really have that video :(
I miss them so fucking much. Yesterday and today are the 2nd anniversary of Special Live in Nagisaen. I watched the Live BD for like 5 times and I couldn't help myself crying. I just miss them so much. I went to 2018 Japan Dome Tour in April 21th & 22th and it was just such an amazing experience. I can't even believe I've attended 4 concerts of the total 99 AMBITIONS shows, 3 in Japan and 1 in my city Taipei....I just can't wait for the next concert
Nice to see you come back to more ONE OK ROCK! The lyrics can easily be overlooked, but get a hold of the Eng translation to CHAOSMYTH. "Dream as if you'll live forever, and live as if you'll die today."
by the end of the day ONE OK ROCK can absorb various genre, they can switch to pop for audience like 5sos has/more universal theme festival like rock in japan/warped (rip) or playing rock for rock-heavy festival like deadpop or download them stay winning we still headbanging
They played some of these songs live when you saw them? Interesting, I believe we both saw them after Ambitions came out, but they didn’t play a single song from the album these came from. I was really hoping they’d play C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h. b/c that’s one of my faves, but it was all new stuff. Btw have you heard the song ‘Voice’ by Pay Money to My Pain ft. Taka? That’s an incredible song, it’s my favorite
I don't find the hidden track from 35. Its a parody of a children song, and the lyrics were naughty as far as i know. But i don't find it anymore. In my opinion it was the best hidden track.
-If u look at the lyrics, Chaosmyth is about friendship song.. So that's why the video is like that -also In Re:make they always arrange the toru solo part.. That's why the title song is Re:make
One ok rock is a wonderful Japanese band. They have traveled everywhere around the world for concerts, even in Charlotte North Carolina. I would have never thought they would even come close to NC. Really nice reaction Ryan
Re:make is the first song ever for me and the moment I heard it.. boy. Instantly hooked, have been going to their concert everytime they come here AND WILL KEEP GOING UNTIL THE END.
NO SCARED was the first song I heard from ONE OK ROCK. Ever since, I've been into their music. And when you reacted to the song, I headbanged and sang along, remembering how much I love this song. I wouldn't be a fan today if my friend never showed me this song (which was from the Black Rock Shooter game trailer). Will always love ONE OK ROCK! Sorry if this is a late comment lol
That part that you said that one ok rock is for everyone make me remember when I became one ok rocker it was in 2015 I was 12 years old my favorite thing about one ok rock is the meaning of their songs thats why I became a fan
Please PLEASE PLEASE react to Sekai No Owari "Dragon Night" and "RPG" or The RamPage "La Fiesta". There are the songs "Liar" and "Deeper Deeper" from ONE OK ROCK, and I really really like them. You can react to them to, if you haven't heared them already
First heard of One Ok Rock was from a psp game called "Black Rock Shooter"; the intro was "No Scared." Since then I became a fan. Also one of my favorite songs from them was "Onion." What they lacked is longer guitar solos, they really need to master their guitars. Old One Ok Rock was the best but when they change pace and become a little mellow, I switched to Babymetal which really gives me a goosebumps! Babymetal became my greatest and number one band of all time after Korn and Oasis.. Then here comes Band-maid, see we both liked them too.. :)
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSS! I LOVE ONE OK ROCK! Their older sound is great, but I like their ability to change and grow and not have the same sound every album. I love all their stuff, their latest album is amazing because it's not like the one before--and because it's fucking amazing. Please react to iKON, Infinite, Pentagon and NCT (KPop) Sukima Switch, Flumpool, DOES and Straightener (JRock) Love your reactions!
My favorites from "old" One Ok Rock is Ring Wondering, Notes'n'Words (better than Heartache in my opinion), Rock Scissors Paper, Pieces of Me, Keep It Real, Voice P.T.P x Taka, もしも太陽がなくなったとしたら (Moshimo taiyou ga nakunatte toshitara...)、カラス (karasu)、過去は教科書に未来は宿題 (kako wa kyoukasho ni mirai wa shukudai)、カサブタ (kasabuta) Please please do another reaction video with these songs ;A; lol you can find them on youtube XD
Koukai yaku ni tatazu, break my strings, nobody'a home, and koi no aibou kokoro no cupid are pretty awesome too. I mean is there a oor song that isn't awesome lol
I’m so happpyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Please Part 3!!!!!!! You listened to their old stuff but old sound maybe you could listen Kagerou or Yume Yume :) Toru Rap :)
I watched you after a long time! Their old songs are very cool!Of course, the current song is great! Please react to more ONE OK ROCK! Pierce (Live in Yokohama Arena) Taka is so emotional!
No Scared was my first ever song and I actually found them through the Black Rock Shooter video game! I saw them live for the first time in NYC in 2014 which was the same year they were at both Rock on the Range and Warped Tour (and I went to both of those too lol) So I was like “YEESSSS” when you reacted to No Scared cause it’s super sentimental to me plus the music video is hilarious
I am Japanese. I always watch movies, I want you to listen to various Japanese music more There is a request BUMP OF CHICKEN Ray · Hello.World · 記念撮影 I want you to react I am sorry that English was wrong.
Ryan!!! Thank you for this! I agree with you that ONE OK ROCK is great *because* they change things up. They have that versatility that not all bands have. It's not like they've forgotten their roots or anything... (Ambitions had Bombs Away which is pretty heavy.) They're just trying new things out, and if it gets them new fans in the process then all the better. All the songs you listened to were on the album Zankyou Reference. Great album! C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h. was written for their friends, and the title is actually the initials of those 9 friends. If you haven't already, check out Keep It Real (from their indies days!), Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer (their first chart topper), Yume Yume, Nobody's Home (written for Taka's parents😭), Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupid, Wherever you are (most used song at weddings in Japan, ie. the song most people in Japan unfamiliar with OOR know), and Jibun ROCK. Heck, just listen to them all! I also recommend you check out the live version of NO SCARED at Yokohama Stadium. That riff is just so sick. I also kinda doubt you heard this song or Re:make live in Canada. I'm not aware of those songs being included on any set list for North American performances during their 35xxxv or Ambitions tours. Anyway, I'll say it for the umpteenth time that I'm grateful to you for introducing me to this band some 9 months ago. My wallet hates you (I've spent nearly $2K on them... 💸), but I love you. 😘 Hope you'll do reactions to the other songs when you go listen to them! You're always fun to watch.
About NO SCARED and Re:make, as he already watched some songs from the live at Yokohama Stadium my guess is he might have stepped upon them at that moment. Otherwise I don't see how he'd have heard them before if he never listened to the albums, they definitely didn't play them abroad recently^^
I didn't thought this would be only Zankyou Reference (their 5th album) songs, so, i hope you make a third part listening to some other tracks that are even older than those ones. You can listen to: Naihi Shinso, the first track from their first album "Zeitakubyou" Kanzen Kankaku Dremaer, from the 4th album "Niche Syndrome" Answer is near, from the album of all the songs you've react on this video.
First thing, big mac you know, watch their live performance please. Secound thing, here are some older songs I'll recommand: 内秘心書（their first single）、カゲロウ、未完成交響曲、Nobody's home
Aaahh you've updated so much since I started my mini social media hiatus!! I will catch up, I promise, but first of all, I like your new room lol OKAY now I gotta comment on the video and ONE OK ROCK! I wasn't a huge fan of C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h when I first heard it but the melody is so strong, it really grew on me. I love it now. And the album that includes all 3 of these songs (Zankyou Reference) was my first OOR album so there's some emotional attachment there, I'm delighted to see you reacting to songs from it! :D Ah, nostalgia... the promo surrounding Re:make was fun, they did a facebook thing with it where they made the shadows in the PV into like a photomosaic of your FB friends lol. Re:make has become a karaoke go-to for me. I can't do the "waah" scream in the middle of it but god it is SO much fun to sing. I still consider this album more "new" OOR though, probably since it was about halfway through their career. Their first few releases are a lot harder (I listen to MY FIRST STORY when I'm craving that sort of sound, to give you an idea of the general feel of OOR's older stuff). The album "Niche Syndrome" forward, basically, to me that's like... major-era/pop-era OOR, and then everything from 35xxxv to the present is like, "global era" OOR. :P Niche Syndrome has a couple of songs that are sort of legendary at this point like Wherever You Are and Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer. Wherever YOu Are is back on the Japanese charts recently, actually, and it just will not go away, haha. It's a pretty song. It sure has some legs. And if you do wanna look into their older stuff, if you have Spotify, I made a playlist (named it "The Best of ONE OK ROCK", pretty straightforward) that covers stuff from Jinsei Kakete Boku Wa and earlier. It was a very hard playlist to make because... yeah, they have never made a bad song, to answer your question lol. But yeah you can find it if you search for it, I don't wanna be a weirdo spamming links to my Spotify playlists. :P
Pronouncing OK as O.K. sounds so weird to me. I love the little joke of their name sounding like One O'Clock. I like their new stuff, but I just like their older stuff a little better (like 'Onion', 'Karasu', 'Kaimu', 'Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid' and '69'). Live they're always great though, old or new. I've seen them twice in Amsterdam. Small venues, really close. Two of the best gigs ever! Thanks for reacting to Re:make, it's one of my favorites.
I can't believe you have not react yet to ONE OK ROCK wherever you are .... damn man ... Imma sub because I really wanna see it one day - especially the Live version
We need One Ok Rock reaction part 3! React to their old songs such as: KanzenKankakuDreamer (This song brought them on popularity) Never Let This Go Nobody's Home (This song is about Taka's apology in his family) Answer Is Near (This is so good! You should react to this one!) Break My String Yumeyume Et Cetera Pierce (this song is so emotional 😢 i cried many times to this)
Thanks for the reaction, ONE OK ROCK is good no matter what time/album it's from! Chaosmyth is one of my absolute favorite songs! :D But yeah, if you want really old OOR, try Kemuri, Karasu, Et Cetera, Living Dolls. Pls react to The Pillows! Recommended songs are Ride on Shooting Star, Comic Sonic, Funny Bunny, Third Eye, Energia. Or just any of their songs, all their music are good! :D
I recommend you the Japanese rock band "My First Story". The front singer is also Taka's little brother. Music is big in their family haha! My favourite songs are 1) Alone 2) Reviver 3) The Pazzle and 4) Nothing In The Story :)
Why Chaosmyth? It's a good song but it's from the same time period of The Beginning and Clock Strikes is not really that far from when you started listening to OOR, for you to listen there are better options like Karasu, Answer is Near, Naihi Shinsho, Kansen Kankaku Dreamer, Onion, Jibun Rock and Kimishidai Ressha
disthymia Yeah I think he would really enjoy songs like Kaimu, Yume Yume, Et cetera, Naihi shinsho, Living Dolls, Reflection, Never let this go and Shake it down
ONE OK ROCK IS LIFE !! I love your reactions and I'm a big fan of OOR, but I would like you to react to your old songs live. - Karasu: th-cam.com/video/AGrt2_EWW4A/w-d-xo.html - Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid: th-cam.com/video/nUJzV50EK4U/w-d-xo.html - Living dolls: th-cam.com/video/tgadJigQSMU/w-d-xo.html I appreciate you if you reacted: 3
No Scared was actually the first song that made me discover OOR. Was the Intro song of Black Rock Shooter on PSP and I had to check this group up. Best decision of my F* life.
Helloo!!! You still have to make a third part with his first albums like Zeittakubyo or "beam of ligth" or "Kanjou effect". I think their best songs are "Keep it real", "Etcetera" and "Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid". I hope you can listen to them and make another video, greetings from Mexico!!! You're so cool!
Haha I didn't expect that from your description!! "Zankyou Reference" is the album these three songs come from, it's their fifth album so yeah they were already crazy beasts at that point x) I would even say it was the album they reached their musical maturity with. It's so funny and weird to hear you say they look "so young" hahaha, I feel like it was yesterday! Guess this album never got old to me :) I actually thought you'd have listenned to their older stuff already, as the first song you ever heard from them was from their fourth album. But then it's great for you, you still have so much to discover! It could be super interesting if you did more videos where you go back in time and dig in older n older stuff :D If you want to see every music video they ever did here's the list: - From 4th album "Niche Syndrome" you can find on their label's channel "A-sketch MUSIC LABEL" the music videos for "Liar" (that you've already reacted to), "Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer" and "Jibun Rock". Then it gets harder to find anything official and here's why. Before that album there was a fifth member, Alex, but in 2009 a scandal involving him forced him to leave the band. It was a pretty heavy time for the band, as they had to cancel their upccoming single and tour, and their future as a band was very unsure. They didn't have the heart to replace their friend with a new member, so Toru took up the lead guitar role and they ended up as the formation we now know. But it seems like the label has been trying to erase the past of the band before this incident, so you will not find any clip including Alex on the official channels; but there were plenty! If you feel like digging, here's what you could find: - From 3rd album "Kanjou Effect" there was a music video for "Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupido" (which is a fucking great song you gotta listen to it someday!!) that I think can only be found out of youtube (on fansoop for instance). - From 2nd album (one they have said was mostly about trying out stuff and searching their own style, and that they don't really like themselves haha) there was "Hitsuzen Maker" -and there you'll see oooold OOR, brace yourself! You're not ready to see Taka like this, believe me XD - And from the very first album "Zeitakubyou" there were "Keep it real" (their first MV ever!! Extreme teenage OOR!!) "Naihi Shinshou", "Yume Yume" and "Et Cetera". Once you've reached that album you can decide for yourself if OOR has been flawless from the start :) ...Alright, am I scary now? I'm sorry haha, I got carried away again cause well... you know... it's fucking ONE OK ROCK x) Thanks for the reaction and sorry it triggered me again hahaha Cheers!
Also, as a fan who discovered them with their 4th album and a more punky sound, I am one of the scepticals about what the band makes recently; but besides my personal taste I think it's fine they try out things and keep having fun! The only thing that makes me kinda sad in their change is that they seem to deny their japanese roots, as if they believed it would keep them from reaching a larger audience. I just think it's a shame because the way they used to mix english and japanese in their songs was precious, it made them very unique! And it showed that language isn't necessary to communicate emotions, which was such a beautiful and important thing. The labels are probably pushing towards this new direction because of the band's international ambitions though, and there's nothing we can really do about it; but I wish they knew that so many of their fans don't bother - and actually love!- that they sing japanese. They always look so surprised when the audience knows the japanese lyrics in the live shows^^, they obviously never believed japanese could appeal to an international public, even though that's how they got famous outside of Japan in the first place... Gosh, I just love them, even though lately we're a little bit upset at each other, I just profoundly love them and have always wished they could get international AND proudly bear their roots at the same time T_T
"Have they ever made a bad song?" Have you heard of Paper Planes? Yep, that one's called the anomination song by the fan base. Seems like producer-san just forced them to include it in 35xxxv
Please react to "Amazarashi" The songs I recommend are: 1) Sora ni Utaeba 2) Kisestsu wa Tsugitsugi Shindeiku I would suggest using subtitles since the meaning in the lyrics of their songs is amazing. Also please react to J.Y. Park and his songs from the almost 3 decades he has performed. Especially "Still Alive" which came out a couple of years ago. I know that you have been impressed by the Artists working under him like GOT7 and I would l also suggest watching his songs with subtitles.
ahh~ I don't think I can only suggest one song from them... I first listened to Liar in 2010 and since then I can't even count how many songs I legit love from them. I don't think I could ever recommend them without mentioning Re:make, Answer is Near, Jibun Rock (I can't put together a full sentence in Japanese but I could sing that full song if you woke me up in the middle of the night 🤣) Deeper Deeper, Reflection, Borderline, Yume Yume, Naihi Shinsho, Hitsuzen Maker, Etcetera, Kaimu, Keep it real, pff... Koi no aibou kokoro no cupido❤ ... I can go on and on... they are sure worth listening, even if you don't "react" to them 😊
There is a heavier song that they made. The song is called Ending Story??. So check it out. I know that you want more than one song, so here some more songs Keep it Real, Riots!!! and Nobody's Home.
Ryan: "have they ever made a bad song can we answer that question" Me aka Ashlie: "yes yes we can and the answer is no they never mad a bad song Ever and I'm most definitely sure they would NEVER make one" (I'm sorry I'm such a smartass)
Part 1: Taka... To..ru... Ryo........ta? Did I get any of those right? Part 2: Look at Taka. Hehehe Toru. Wow, they all look so young! ~Ryota!~~ Ooh, Tomoya going crazy right now. Genuine evolution of a true fan.
Oh my god!! Thank you for reacting for the song Re:make😂😂😂 That is my fav song from ONE OK ROCK!!!!! Also pls react to the band called “Polkadot Stingray”!! PLS Here are my suggestions of their songs↓ 1)Telecaster Stripe 2)Pandora box 3)Rem I love the voice of the vocal girl and their music sounds so great😍 Also love the guitar solo part(its amazing)
THANKYOU! Some more (I think) old ONEOKROCK: *Naihi Shinsho *Borderline *San San drama *Yoru ni shika sakanai mangetsu (夜西か咲かない満月) *Yes I am *Riot *Wherever you are (always a good song to listen, but you need to listen the live version not the audio) *欲望に満ちた青年団 Love this video!! Always a good idea to listen to more ONEOKROCK :D
To me it doesn't really seem like One Ok Rock is changing, just broadening their horizons. Yes Ambitions had some more pop like songs on it such as Bedroom Warfare, but it also has songs such as Bombs Away which still carry the same vibe that old One OK Rock songs do, but it feels like those get brushed over because some songs are different. Variety is good, it gives bands a chance to figure out what they do and don't like, what they want to stick to and what they don't, but most importantly - what to do next.
I definitely agree with this
They can change if they want, but you can't force people to like it and it's not being close-minded to not liking it. And you can't blame people that follow them since "keep it real" (or later) to just feel that now they are a random rock band, that make random rock songs that are not different from the others. Because we loose why we love them and what make them different (and it's not only bc they are japanese) . It's not a bad thing, it's not a good thing, it's a choice. They loose lots of the "old fans" and earns new. And as they haven't to always do the same style, we don't have to follow them whatever they do. And you can't say that they change because they want to or because they are "broadening". They did what every japanese band/artist do when they want to break trough US.
If you look at who they, One ok Rock, are friends with in the industry you will see most of their friends like playing with sound. I don't like OOR fans who call out OOR sellouts which I seen plenty of times. First of all, they do not fit the definition at all, second of all if a group stays the same they never grow.

@@kahhowkon6139what you said literally means they changed lol.
@@Drae_mon forgot to add the word "temporarily".
Deeper Deeper, Mighty Long Fall, and Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer are also bomb old One Ok Rock songs
Deeper Deeper is on Jinsei x Boku = and MLF is on 35xxxv, so Ryan should have listened to them already since he said he's bought Jinsei x Boku = and later.
Nobody's home , wherever you are , 完全感覺dreamer ....... I listened these song many times in my secondary school . I always remember my school life when I hear the one ok rock

YEEES
Wow great video! Their debut era are also wonderful. Lead guitar was not Toru, he was playing rhythm guitar and rap. I'd like to recommend "Keep it real" and "yume yume" to you xD
This is not Old One Ok Rock, please react to Yume Yume, Keep it Real and other from the first two albums xD
Let me tell you in a really old OOR's day, Toru is rapping and they have another guitarist. So there is another old ver. Of OOR you should react XD
Try keep it real, yumeyume, and koukai yaku ni tatazu but it seems like yt doesn't really have that video :(
Yumeyume = YES.
Yes! And et cetera (OK, the MV is different from the other ones, but I kinda still like it)
@@tw0m00ns7 I LOVE ET CETERA SO MUCH it may be my fave track on zeitakubyou
Honestly, zeitakubyo is a good album people need to apreciated it more
@@hotahotaru791 yes, That's so true! It's still one of my favorite Albums ever
Eating a big mac while watching this on lunch break
I love One OK Rock so much too! Love your reaction because you obviously are a great fan too.
All these songs are from Zankyo Reference album. Go listen to the full album. ✨✨✨
Chaosmyth is probably on of my favorite songs it makes me smile every time n_n
I miss them so fucking much.
Yesterday and today are the 2nd anniversary of Special Live in Nagisaen. I watched the Live BD for like 5 times and I couldn't help myself crying. I just miss them so much.
I went to 2018 Japan Dome Tour in April 21th & 22th and it was just such an amazing experience. I can't even believe I've attended 4 concerts of the total 99 AMBITIONS shows, 3 in Japan and 1 in my city Taipei....I just can't wait for the next concert
Their song NO SCARED is the opening to one of the Black Rock Shooter video games!!!
Nice to see you come back to more ONE OK ROCK!
The lyrics can easily be overlooked, but get a hold of the Eng translation to CHAOSMYTH. "Dream as if you'll live forever, and live as if you'll die today."
Part 3:
-koubou
-kanzen kankaku dreamer
-Jibun Rock
-kagerou
by the end of the day ONE OK ROCK can absorb various genre, they can switch to pop for audience like 5sos has/more universal theme festival like rock in japan/warped (rip) or playing rock for rock-heavy festival like deadpop or download
them stay winning
we still headbanging
They played some of these songs live when you saw them? Interesting, I believe we both saw them after Ambitions came out, but they didn’t play a single song from the album these came from. I was really hoping they’d play C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h. b/c that’s one of my faves, but it was all new stuff. Btw have you heard the song ‘Voice’ by Pay Money to My Pain ft. Taka? That’s an incredible song, it’s my favorite
Yeah "Voice" is quite good, and if we are talking about Taka singing not OOR Stuff, he should check out the "Smells like Teen Spirit" Cover.
やっとPART2ができた！
There's even older stuff were Taka isn't the lead singer of One Ok Rock but Toru who raps on the songs and it was amazing (Keep it real EP, YumeYume )
Taka was always the lead singer from the beginning.
React to yume yume, kemuri, 69, 100%, onion, or kaimu to part 3
And to part 4 all the hidden tracks xD (all songs are in youtube)
yess:)
"Smiling down" too
I don't find the hidden track from 35. Its a parody of a children song, and the lyrics were naughty as far as i know. But i don't find it anymore. In my opinion it was the best hidden track.
Et cetera is one of my favorite ONE OK ROCK songs! 🧡
-If u look at the lyrics, Chaosmyth is about friendship song.. So that's why the video is like that
-also In Re:make they always arrange the toru solo part.. That's why the title song is Re:make
One Ok Rock are legends no matter what sound they have. End of story.
One ok rock is a wonderful Japanese band. They have traveled everywhere around the world for concerts, even in Charlotte North Carolina. I would have never thought they would even come close to NC. Really nice reaction Ryan
omg. I am so suprised you didn´t watch the old stuff yet. There old and new songs are both amazing. I am happy you enjoy it.
Re:make is the first song ever for me and the moment I heard it.. boy. Instantly hooked, have been going to their concert everytime they come here AND WILL KEEP GOING UNTIL THE END.
more more ONE OK ROCK!!!!!
Aww,memories.Remake was their first track I fell in love with.Really amazing band.
Chaosmyth is my ringtone. Love that song. Ryan is completely responsible for my One ok Rock obsession
NO SCARED was the first song I heard from ONE OK ROCK. Ever since, I've been into their music. And when you reacted to the song, I headbanged and sang along, remembering how much I love this song.
I wouldn't be a fan today if my friend never showed me this song (which was from the Black Rock Shooter game trailer). Will always love ONE OK ROCK!
Sorry if this is a late comment lol
"Keep it real" was the first of their songs I've listened to years ago! Watch that one too if you make a part 3???
I hope you could make a part 3 of this! Thank you Ryan for this💜
YEEEEEEEEES‼︎‼︎‼︎ONE OK ROCK‼︎‼︎‼︎
More‼︎‼︎‼︎
I dont know why but everytime i see people appreciate and loving OOR its give me a big smile on my face and like being proud parents on them..😉😉
That part that you said that one ok rock is for everyone make me remember when I became one ok rocker it was in 2015 I was 12 years old my favorite thing about one ok rock is the meaning of their songs thats why I became a fan
YAS!! One Ok Rock!!
You really have to react to "Pierce, The way back, Last Dance, Nothing helps ", all those are masterpieces :3
Please PLEASE PLEASE react to Sekai No Owari "Dragon Night" and "RPG" or The RamPage "La Fiesta".
There are the songs "Liar" and "Deeper Deeper" from ONE OK ROCK, and I really really like them. You can react to them to, if you haven't heared them already
He reacted to Liar in his first video about ONE OK ROCK a while ago^^
@@aurianelaily oh, I remember I saw that video. I must have forgotten about "liar" 😅 but he didn't react to "deeper deeper" right?
Liar is such a great song
First heard of One Ok Rock was from a psp game called "Black Rock Shooter"; the intro was "No Scared." Since then I became a fan. Also one of my favorite songs from them was "Onion." What they lacked is longer guitar solos, they really need to master their guitars. Old One Ok Rock was the best but when they change pace and become a little mellow, I switched to Babymetal which really gives me a goosebumps! Babymetal became my greatest and number one band of all time after Korn and Oasis.. Then here comes Band-maid, see we both liked them too.. :)
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASSSS! I LOVE ONE OK ROCK!
Their older sound is great, but I like their ability to change and grow and not have the same sound every album. I love all their stuff, their latest album is amazing because it's not like the one before--and because it's fucking amazing.
Please react to iKON, Infinite, Pentagon and NCT (KPop)
Sukima Switch, Flumpool, DOES and Straightener (JRock)
Love your reactions!
My favorites from "old" One Ok Rock is
Ring Wondering, Notes'n'Words (better than Heartache in my opinion), Rock Scissors Paper, Pieces of Me, Keep It Real, Voice P.T.P x Taka, もしも太陽がなくなったとしたら (Moshimo taiyou ga nakunatte toshitara...)、カラス (karasu)、過去は教科書に未来は宿題 (kako wa kyoukasho ni mirai wa shukudai)、カサブタ (kasabuta) Please please do another reaction video with these songs ;A; lol you can find them on youtube XD
Koukai yaku ni tatazu, break my strings, nobody'a home, and koi no aibou kokoro no cupid are pretty awesome too. I mean is there a oor song that isn't awesome lol
I’m so happpyyyyyyyyyyy!!! Please Part 3!!!!!!! You listened to their old stuff but old sound maybe you could listen Kagerou or Yume Yume :) Toru Rap :)
I watched you after a long time!
Their old songs are very cool!Of course, the current song is great!
Please react to more ONE OK ROCK! Pierce (Live in Yokohama Arena) Taka is so emotional!
They played No Scared for encore in Poland and you know guys? We almost tore the venue apart that wild it was :)
OOR BALLAD PLEASE : Pierce , all mine , et cetera
No Scared was my first ever song and I actually found them through the Black Rock Shooter video game! I saw them live for the first time in NYC in 2014 which was the same year they were at both Rock on the Range and Warped Tour (and I went to both of those too lol)
So I was like “YEESSSS” when you reacted to No Scared cause it’s super sentimental to me plus the music video is hilarious
I am Japanese.
I always watch movies, I want you to listen to various Japanese music more
There is a request
BUMP OF CHICKEN

· Hello.World
· 記念撮影
I want you to react
I am sorry that English was wrong.
Ryan!!! Thank you for this! I agree with you that ONE OK ROCK is great *because* they change things up. They have that versatility that not all bands have. It's not like they've forgotten their roots or anything... (Ambitions had Bombs Away which is pretty heavy.) They're just trying new things out, and if it gets them new fans in the process then all the better.
All the songs you listened to were on the album Zankyou Reference. Great album! C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h. was written for their friends, and the title is actually the initials of those 9 friends.
If you haven't already, check out Keep It Real (from their indies days!), Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer (their first chart topper), Yume Yume, Nobody's Home (written for Taka's parents😭), Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupid, Wherever you are (most used song at weddings in Japan, ie. the song most people in Japan unfamiliar with OOR know), and Jibun ROCK. Heck, just listen to them all!
I also recommend you check out the live version of NO SCARED at Yokohama Stadium. That riff is just so sick. I also kinda doubt you heard this song or Re:make live in Canada. I'm not aware of those songs being included on any set list for North American performances during their 35xxxv or Ambitions tours.
Anyway, I'll say it for the umpteenth time that I'm grateful to you for introducing me to this band some 9 months ago. My wallet hates you (I've spent nearly $2K on them... 💸), but I love you. 😘
Hope you'll do reactions to the other songs when you go listen to them! You're always fun to watch.
About NO SCARED and Re:make, as he already watched some songs from the live at Yokohama Stadium my guess is he might have stepped upon them at that moment. Otherwise I don't see how he'd have heard them before if he never listened to the albums, they definitely didn't play them abroad recently^^
Auriane Laïly Yeah that's my guess too.
I didn't thought this would be only Zankyou Reference (their 5th album) songs, so, i hope you make a third part listening to some other tracks that are even older than those ones.
You can listen to:
Naihi Shinso, the first track from their first album "Zeitakubyou"
Kanzen Kankaku Dremaer, from the 4th album "Niche Syndrome"
Answer is near, from the album of all the songs you've react on this video.
First thing, big mac you know, watch their live performance please. Secound thing, here are some older songs I'll recommand: 内秘心書（their first single）、カゲロウ、未完成交響曲、Nobody's home
No Scarred is my running jam hahaha it pumps me up
Aaahh you've updated so much since I started my mini social media hiatus!! I will catch up, I promise, but first of all, I like your new room lol
OKAY now I gotta comment on the video and ONE OK ROCK!
I wasn't a huge fan of C.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h when I first heard it but the melody is so strong, it really grew on me. I love it now.
And the album that includes all 3 of these songs (Zankyou Reference) was my first OOR album so there's some emotional attachment there, I'm delighted to see you reacting to songs from it! :D Ah, nostalgia... the promo surrounding Re:make was fun, they did a facebook thing with it where they made the shadows in the PV into like a photomosaic of your FB friends lol. Re:make has become a karaoke go-to for me. I can't do the "waah" scream in the middle of it but god it is SO much fun to sing.
I still consider this album more "new" OOR though, probably since it was about halfway through their career. Their first few releases are a lot harder (I listen to MY FIRST STORY when I'm craving that sort of sound, to give you an idea of the general feel of OOR's older stuff). The album "Niche Syndrome" forward, basically, to me that's like... major-era/pop-era OOR, and then everything from 35xxxv to the present is like, "global era" OOR. :P Niche Syndrome has a couple of songs that are sort of legendary at this point like Wherever You Are and Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer. Wherever YOu Are is back on the Japanese charts recently, actually, and it just will not go away, haha. It's a pretty song. It sure has some legs.
And if you do wanna look into their older stuff, if you have Spotify, I made a playlist (named it "The Best of ONE OK ROCK", pretty straightforward) that covers stuff from Jinsei Kakete Boku Wa and earlier. It was a very hard playlist to make because... yeah, they have never made a bad song, to answer your question lol. But yeah you can find it if you search for it, I don't wanna be a weirdo spamming links to my Spotify playlists. :P
Part 3 being expected Ryan 👀🔥
Pronouncing OK as O.K. sounds so weird to me. I love the little joke of their name sounding like One O'Clock. I like their new stuff, but I just like their older stuff a little better (like 'Onion', 'Karasu', 'Kaimu', 'Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid' and '69'). Live they're always great though, old or new. I've seen them twice in Amsterdam. Small venues, really close. Two of the best gigs ever! Thanks for reacting to Re:make, it's one of my favorites.
Part 3 needs keep it real their first song
I can't believe you have not react yet to ONE OK ROCK wherever you are .... damn man ... Imma sub because I really wanna see it one day - especially the Live version
THAT ATTACK ON TITAN HAT!!! And...add ONE OK ROCK pictures in your wall like you did with BTS
Did he ever react to “Answer is near”????? Cuz it is GOOD
Please react to c.h.a.o.s.m.y.t.h live at yokohama stadium.. it's amazing 😊
Please have part 3! React to older ones, when they are still 5man band
Just, you know, listen to everything :))
Awesome reaction as always!!!!!! 😁
We need One Ok Rock reaction part 3! React to their old songs such as:
KanzenKankakuDreamer (This song brought them on popularity)
Never Let This Go
Nobody's Home (This song is about Taka's apology in his family)
Answer Is Near (This is so good! You should react to this one!)
Break My String
Yumeyume
Et Cetera
Pierce (this song is so emotional 😢 i cried many times to this)
Thanks for the reaction, ONE OK ROCK is good no matter what time/album it's from! Chaosmyth is one of my absolute favorite songs! :D But yeah, if you want really old OOR, try Kemuri, Karasu, Et Cetera, Living Dolls.
Pls react to The Pillows! Recommended songs are Ride on Shooting Star, Comic Sonic, Funny Bunny, Third Eye, Energia. Or just any of their songs, all their music are good! :D
I recommend you the Japanese rock band "My First Story". The front singer is also Taka's little brother. Music is big in their family haha! My favourite songs are 1) Alone 2) Reviver 3) The Pazzle and 4) Nothing In The Story :)
MY FAVORITE BAND MY FAVORITE BAND MY FAVORITE BAND
All the songs of this video are part of the album Zankyo Reference, you forget the other albums😂
I want to see you react to “Keep It Real” and “Yume Yume” from ONE OK ROCK.
Both songs are old, but good!
Why Chaosmyth? It's a good song but it's from the same time period of The Beginning and Clock Strikes is not really that far from when you started listening to OOR, for you to listen there are better options like Karasu, Answer is Near, Naihi Shinsho, Kansen Kankaku Dreamer, Onion, Jibun Rock and Kimishidai Ressha
Yume yume! 100%
disthymia Yeah I think he would really enjoy songs like Kaimu, Yume Yume, Et cetera, Naihi shinsho, Living Dolls, Reflection, Never let this go and Shake it down
@@DhagGames I think he mainly reacts to songs that already have music videos
ONE OK ROCK IS LIFE !!
I love your reactions and I'm a big fan of OOR, but I would like you to react to your old songs live.
- Karasu: th-cam.com/video/AGrt2_EWW4A/w-d-xo.html
- Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid: th-cam.com/video/nUJzV50EK4U/w-d-xo.html
- Living dolls: th-cam.com/video/tgadJigQSMU/w-d-xo.html
I appreciate you if you reacted: 3
@11:53 when he said “Tomoya” he said it similar to how Japanese say it and my Japanese ass got very happy
I always love One Ok Rock 😍
Lyricwriting before JinseiXBoku album was serious and had sense. Answer is Near and Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer are gnarly songs too.
They release a new mv. The song is call Stand Out Fit In.
Hahahha its funny how you became a obsessed fan now after part 1 reaction video.
No Scared was actually the first song that made me discover OOR. Was the Intro song of Black Rock Shooter on PSP and I had to check this group up. Best decision of my F* life.
Maybe you can listen to 3 earlier album, like Zeitakubyō, Beam of Light, and Kanjō Effect when they were five members.
React to their live more pleaseeeee.
Also try one of my all time favorite "LIAR" and i am sure you like it..😉😉
Helloo!!! You still have to make a third part with his first albums like Zeittakubyo or "beam of ligth" or "Kanjou effect". I think their best songs are "Keep it real", "Etcetera" and "Koi no aibou kokoro no cupid". I hope you can listen to them and make another video, greetings from Mexico!!! You're so cool!
Haha I didn't expect that from your description!!
"Zankyou Reference" is the album these three songs come from, it's their fifth album so yeah they were already crazy beasts at that point x) I would even say it was the album they reached their musical maturity with. It's so funny and weird to hear you say they look "so young" hahaha, I feel like it was yesterday! Guess this album never got old to me :)
I actually thought you'd have listenned to their older stuff already, as the first song you ever heard from them was from their fourth album. But then it's great for you, you still have so much to discover! It could be super interesting if you did more videos where you go back in time and dig in older n older stuff :D
If you want to see every music video they ever did here's the list:
- From 4th album "Niche Syndrome" you can find on their label's channel "A-sketch MUSIC LABEL" the music videos for "Liar" (that you've already reacted to), "Kanzen Kankaku Dreamer" and "Jibun Rock".
Then it gets harder to find anything official and here's why.
Before that album there was a fifth member, Alex, but in 2009 a scandal involving him forced him to leave the band. It was a pretty heavy time for the band, as they had to cancel their upccoming single and tour, and their future as a band was very unsure. They didn't have the heart to replace their friend with a new member, so Toru took up the lead guitar role and they ended up as the formation we now know. But it seems like the label has been trying to erase the past of the band before this incident, so you will not find any clip including Alex on the official channels; but there were plenty!
If you feel like digging, here's what you could find:
- From 3rd album "Kanjou Effect" there was a music video for "Koi no Aibou Kokoro no Cupido" (which is a fucking great song you gotta listen to it someday!!) that I think can only be found out of youtube (on fansoop for instance).
- From 2nd album (one they have said was mostly about trying out stuff and searching their own style, and that they don't really like themselves haha) there was "Hitsuzen Maker" -and there you'll see oooold OOR, brace yourself! You're not ready to see Taka like this, believe me XD
- And from the very first album "Zeitakubyou" there were "Keep it real" (their first MV ever!! Extreme teenage OOR!!) "Naihi Shinshou", "Yume Yume" and "Et Cetera".
Once you've reached that album you can decide for yourself if OOR has been flawless from the start :)
...Alright, am I scary now?
I'm sorry haha, I got carried away again cause well... you know... it's fucking ONE OK ROCK x)
Thanks for the reaction and sorry it triggered me again hahaha
Cheers!
Also, as a fan who discovered them with their 4th album and a more punky sound, I am one of the scepticals about what the band makes recently; but besides my personal taste I think it's fine they try out things and keep having fun!
The only thing that makes me kinda sad in their change is that they seem to deny their japanese roots, as if they believed it would keep them from reaching a larger audience. I just think it's a shame because the way they used to mix english and japanese in their songs was precious, it made them very unique! And it showed that language isn't necessary to communicate emotions, which was such a beautiful and important thing.
The labels are probably pushing towards this new direction because of the band's international ambitions though, and there's nothing we can really do about it; but I wish they knew that so many of their fans don't bother - and actually love!- that they sing japanese. They always look so surprised when the audience knows the japanese lyrics in the live shows^^, they obviously never believed japanese could appeal to an international public, even though that's how they got famous outside of Japan in the first place...
Gosh, I just love them, even though lately we're a little bit upset at each other, I just profoundly love them and have always wished they could get international AND proudly bear their roots at the same time T_T
"Have they ever made a bad song?" Have you heard of Paper Planes? Yep, that one's called the anomination song by the fan base. Seems like producer-san just forced them to include it in 35xxxv
I loved all of the songs that you mentioned!! They are my fucking addiction!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
All three awesome songs! Re:Make also my running jam :P
You should do a "SCANDAL old songs réactions" because it's really different imo, like before their Queens are trumps album
Great video BTW
LOL, I was expecting to hear stuff like Et Cetera, for "old" OOR :D I guess I'm old hahah
Please react to "Amazarashi"
The songs I recommend are:
1) Sora ni Utaeba
2) Kisestsu wa Tsugitsugi Shindeiku
I would suggest using subtitles since the meaning in the lyrics of their songs is amazing.
Also please react to J.Y. Park and his songs from the almost 3 decades he has performed. Especially "Still Alive" which came out a couple of years ago. I know that you have been impressed by the Artists working under him like GOT7 and I would l also suggest watching his songs with subtitles.
Please react to "ET CETERA". It's a truly old but gold!!
Found one live performance in youtube but in very low quality 😂
Omg, I'm so happy that you're happy!:D
When you said old One Ok Rock I thought you'd react to when back in the days Toru rapped xD
ahh~ I don't think I can only suggest one song from them... I first listened to Liar in 2010 and since then I can't even count how many songs I legit love from them. I don't think I could ever recommend them without mentioning Re:make, Answer is Near, Jibun Rock (I can't put together a full sentence in Japanese but I could sing that full song if you woke me up in the middle of the night 🤣) Deeper Deeper, Reflection, Borderline, Yume Yume, Naihi Shinsho, Hitsuzen Maker, Etcetera, Kaimu, Keep it real, pff... Koi no aibou kokoro no cupido❤ ... I can go on and on... they are sure worth listening, even if you don't "react" to them 😊
There is a heavier song that they made. The song is called Ending Story??. So check it out. I know that you want more than one song, so here some more songs Keep it Real, Riots!!! and Nobody's Home.
I've never heard someone say that they were obsessed with a band but not fully dive into all their songs lol
Hey! you need react to "ONE OK ROCK 『We are ～18Fes ver.～』" I think you gonna love this live ! Thanks ^^
Miriam Taehyung up
Ryan: "have they ever made a bad song can we answer that question"
Me aka Ashlie: "yes yes we can and the answer is no they never mad a bad song Ever and I'm most definitely sure they would NEVER make one"
(I'm sorry I'm such a smartass)
Part 1: Taka... To..ru... Ryo........ta? Did I get any of those right?
Part 2: Look at Taka. Hehehe Toru. Wow, they all look so young! ~Ryota!~~ Ooh, Tomoya going crazy right now.
Genuine evolution of a true fan.
U should check out "Rock Scissors Paper" thats my fav OOR song
Oh my god!!
Thank you for reacting for the song Re:make😂😂😂
That is my fav song from ONE OK ROCK!!!!!
Also pls react to the band called “Polkadot Stingray”!! PLS
Here are my suggestions of their songs↓
1)Telecaster Stripe
2)Pandora box
3)Rem
I love the voice of the vocal girl and their music sounds so great😍
Also love the guitar solo part(its amazing)

*Yoru ni shika sakanai mangetsu (夜西か咲かない満月)
*Yes I am

*Wherever you are (always a good song to listen, but you need to listen the live version not the audio)
*欲望に満ちた青年団
Love this video!! Always a good idea to listen to more ONEOKROCK :D
