I really like that she doesn't show her face. From what I know it's a statement. "Don't look at my face. Just listen to and enjoy the music" She doesn't need a flashy or revealing outfit and no over the top dance routine. Ado definitely has more than enough talent to just entertain with her vocals, songs (and a good light show). I really like that it's about the music, not anything else
@@Abigirl_Reacts haha! You will probably get used to it the more you dive into this rabbithole. And while she doesn't show her real face, she does have an anime-like avatar (seen in her profile picture). I hope you'll react to more Ado!
Ado is one of the best young singers in Japan in my opinion. Her range is amazing. She has done songs for the anime One Piece which are all super great, if her cover of Unravel gave you goosebumps i would love to see your reaction to the original Unravel by TK. Thank you for your reaction!
@@Abigirl_ReactsIt's the One piece Red album she sings. Also she cover aishite aishite aishite by kikou and crime and punishment by sheena ringo(on this song you can really hear her raw voice)
In Japan, “vocaloid songs” created with Vocaloid, a music composition software developed by YAMAHA, have become so popular that they form a genre of J-POP. A major characteristic of Vocaloid is that by having virtual idols sing, it is now possible to create performances and songs that are impossible for humans, and anyone can easily release them to the public. Originally, Vocaloid songs were not intended to be sung by humans, but there are people called “utaite (singers)” who try their hand at cover songs without exposing their true faces. One of them is Ado. Even after making her major debut at the age of 17, she has not changed her style of “utaite,” which is to sing only.
One of the most popular Vocaloid songs is Senbonzakura. Senbonzakura - Hastune Miku [Miku Expo 2014 NY]. th-cam.com/video/-h8TA6Mkf1g/w-d-xo.html This song first attracted worldwide attention (160 million views) when “Wagakki Band” released a cover album of Vocaloid songs 10 years ago by creating a music video and uploading it to youtube, which led them to hold live concerts in the U.S./EU. Wagakki Band / Senbon Zakura th-cam.com/video/K_xTet06SUo/w-d-xo.html In case you are wondering, Wagakki Band has moved labels, so if you use the music videos owned by their former label, avex, as is, they will be blocked, so please use live videos when creating reaction videos.

"Uploaded 1 minute ago" best 1 minute ago of my day and I had a pretty great day Great reaction as always, I must say the Patreon picks are killin' it!
You're liking it eh?! They are great picks! Next week was a tie so I'm the tie breaker between (spoiler alert!) electric mob and alter bridge, 2 bands that are new to me!
I just discovered Your channel and let me tell You. I absolutely ADOre Ado.❤ Her voice despite her young age is very versitile. Her cover to "Unravel" especially Live version is argubly better than original, but TK is amazing on my opinion as well. I like to give meaning to songs that You don't understand. This song is about dilema that comes with morality of a person. It's like… I have a monster inside and I don't want to let it out. But some situations may be dangerous enough for me to let it out in order to survive in a world "someone else imagined."😂 Great reaction! 😃You have now new subscriber from Poland 🇵🇱. As for the next song I recommend Crime and Punishment covered by Ado.
Oh yeah, so cool that you're getting into Ado - her music is really a (deep) rabbithole worth diving into. And yes, she doesn't show her face neither live nor in her music videos.
I don't show my face because I can focus on the music by not showing my face, and She was a 17-year-old student when she debuted. The fact that he was a student was probably one of the reasons why she didn't show up. 😅Surprisingly, there are sometimes artists who don't show up in Japan. The meaning of the name ado (includes the meaning of a supporting role... She sings and expresses according to the atmosphere of the song, so isn't there a few different people living in her throat?! It is popular because it makes think so.😂
Ado has a song called useewa which reaches 343 million views. And the good news is, useewa has a live version which is more incredible than the studio version Edit : are you interested to see it now? ;)
What might be cool is checking out her song Odo followed by Hanabie.'s cover. I love how Hanabie. added metal to it, plus you'll get to see the most adorable growler ever.
She recorded it with her friends at a karaoke and posted it on TikTok. It's super funny and they play around with their voices a lot. It's super fun to see her singing pop songs while playing around...
This is a TK's song (Toru Kitashima). You should listen the original TK's version and his One Take performance. She is practically imitating TK's voice.
So, possibly someones told you this already, but Ado never shows her face. Like ever. No one outside of her closest people know what she looks like. And trust me, you should check out more of her songs. So many of them are so incredibly good. Some of my favorites are, just to give you somewhere to start: Usseewa: th-cam.com/video/Qp3b-RXtz4w/w-d-xo.html Tot Musica: th-cam.com/video/V9_ZpqfqHFI/w-d-xo.html Backlight: th-cam.com/video/gt-v_YCkaMY/w-d-xo.html
Her cover of this song is STUNNING, she really channels the lyrics ❤❤ HIGHLY recommend watching Phantom Siita, she does an amazing job as their producer! There are even clips of her coaching them :)
This girl is unique, she is a vocal demon, I was at her concert in Bangkok, one of the best concerts I have ever been to, she can sing for an hour and a half and only at the end of the last 1-2 songs her voice slightly weakened.
Ado es espectacular… solo para tu conocimiento esa es la 7ma canción de ese concierto de 21 canciones y TODAS cantadas con el mismo sentimiento y poder el concierto es “Ado national tour Mars” por si lo quieres buscar Te recomiendo Aishite Aishite en vivo para que la escuches a su máxima potencia
It is the theme song of an anime "Tokyo Ghoul" about the fear and despair of a man who loses his humanity and becomes a monster (Eating human to survive) after being transplanted with the organs of a monster in an accident. She is the closest to a stage musical performer. Usually, the studio version of Ado's songs are much more 'refined' and 'contained' while her live versions are way more intense, emotional and overall 'unhinged'.
If ya wanna check out a great cover .. Hanabie did one of Ado’s songs and it’s pretty epic .. Hanabie is a girl Metalcore band from Japan and they are different than Babymetal cuz they play all the instruments and the lead singer does growling
Ohhh your rabbit holes are getting deeper.First Ren and now Ado.Ado is fantastic,she like Ren has a lot of good songs.Your patreons really like you to suggest Ado.She will grow your channel just like Ren and I agree that Useewa live is great song to follow this one.Unravel has amazing lyrics that fit Ado’s rendition of this cover well.Unravel was a theme song for anime series Tokyo Ghoul (the manga is fantastic).
th-cam.com/video/MMtuwMLGm-I/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IiOhJdd2Ei0pYhyF Now that you're expanding your reaction playlist, you should check out The Warning. These 3 sisters in my opinion are currently the best rock band on the planet. The video link above was my introduction to them
A-ha! You're being directed to the interesting stuff. 😁 Never a dull moment with Japanese music. What a performance/show that was. Where next? Sheena Ringo? AiNA THE END?
@@podsplace Ado started singing before Atarashii Gakko formed, she uploaded her first cover song on NicoNico in 2014 iirc. She was inspired by Sheena Ringo (who is her idol), Hatsune Miko and other Utaite (and probably other people that aren't really known outside of Japan).
I might have missed either you get an explanation or say it but ado is faceless because she started her career at 17 in ehich she wants to keep her face hidden. Even 4 years later she hasnt Shown her face but her voice is all i need especially
I have been a BABYMETAL fan since the beginning. Gimme Chocolate days. And followed Ren's career for a couple of years now. I am now looking forward to more of your reactions. Thanks for replying to all my comments.💚
OOF, no idea what the song is about or who this girl is. But it made me feel strangely uncomfortable. Those screams carried so much frustration and despair and it sorta feels like we are invading into something private and personal. Definitely not my kinda thing and i hope its just an act and she's ok. But then again, if that was the goal of it all, then thats very talented i suppose. I need to go unwind now.
@@Abigirl_Reacts Damnit! Now you've peaked my curiosity and i went googling. Kind of unsettling yet amazing that the song is about something i felt while listening to it without understanding a single word. Portion of the translation below (yaikes): I'm standing alone in this world that keeps on changing But hiding away, my true self is fading! I hope you give up There's nothing left to see No, don't look at me
Hm... checked your vids and now i am wondering, if you haven´t done "Watch the world burn" by Falling in Reverse until now? Anyways, if you are searching for some other rabbit holes, i would suggest bands like "Skillet", "Ad Infinitum" and the german folkmetal band "Feuerschwanz". Each has it´s own very special style, but according to your reactions so far, i guess you would like it.
Falling in reverse is currently my favorite band ever! That being said, I've seen a lot of their stuff pre-WTWB so it wouldn't be a blind reaction. I'd be singing along to every word haha
I really like that she doesn't show her face.
From what I know it's a statement. "Don't look at my face. Just listen to and enjoy the music"
She doesn't need a flashy or revealing outfit and no over the top dance routine. Ado definitely has more than enough talent to just entertain with her vocals, songs (and a good light show).
I really like that it's about the music, not anything else
In my case I was so distracted wondering what she looks like haha
@@Abigirl_Reacts haha! You will probably get used to it the more you dive into this rabbithole.
And while she doesn't show her real face, she does have an anime-like avatar (seen in her profile picture).
I hope you'll react to more Ado!
She is 21 now, but she was 20 during this song. And that's 40 percent of her skills.
Wow, young! ^_^
Ado is one of the best young singers in Japan in my opinion. Her range is amazing. She has done songs for the anime One Piece which are all super great, if her cover of Unravel gave you goosebumps i would love to see your reaction to the original Unravel by TK. Thank you for your reaction!

@@Abigirl_ReactsIt's the One piece Red album she sings. Also she cover aishite aishite aishite by kikou and crime and punishment by sheena ringo(on this song you can really hear her raw voice)
Just check all the live performances from her channel. She does every genre, and every performance is breath taking.
REALLY? That peaks my interest ^_^
Ado's recommended songs are "Tot Musica", "aishite aishite aishite", "fleetinglullaby", "New Genesis Live ver"... there are many.
Nice, thank you so much for the recommendations!
PLEASE 🙏🏻🙏🏻
You won me with the right pronunciation of Ado. FINALLY! First reactor to get it right on first try!! Instant sub

The faceless one o.0
So many recommendations…Odo、show、Rule many more … but my fav now is Value, 😊
I'll definitely be doing more Ado soon!
BTW, Ado is a big fan of Atarshii Gakko... just sayin 🤭
Ado has also produced a new group called "Phantom Siita" that I highly recommend !!!
