Most versatile female composer of all time. Imagine being an idol-type pop singer (a Britney, Xtina, Namie Amuro etc.) who teens would puts posters up on their wall of, selling in the multi-millions, who's a big star, a hugely recognisable face. There have been a few of those, but then imagine as well as pop they do rock, punk, jazz, tango, baroque marches, bossa nova, electronic music, all very much written down, notated, often even before touching a key or strumming a string. Imagine if Gaga didn't do a perfunctory jazz covers album but instead could do original jazz music (in multiple styles). Imagine if Katy Perry could play piano, guitar, bass, drums, koto, shamisen, koto, erhu, vibes, recorder etc., or if Rihanna could compose an instant classic (and future standard) melody like 'Ringo no Uta' or 'Kabuki-cho No Joou'. There's literally no female artist but Ringo who meets all these criteria. Above all, though, to me she's an incredible composer.

[@azarashi1996]

Not only melody, but also their song’s lyrics are so beautiful ✨They use really beautiful Japanese. That’s why they are called “legend” in Japan. Please react more and more … never disappointed

[@dicodec]

I've got to read those lyrics. Definitely need to check out more. We'll come back to them.

[@bacj9868]

Aw man. Been listening to these guys since the early 2000's. Very unknown band outside of Asia in general. All of them members are masters in their own right! They also have other projects other than this band and contribute very much to the music of other artists. They inspire MOST of the artists that emerged for the past 2 DECADES! It feels great that your channel appreciate these guys and hopefully this will introduce Tokyo Jihen to the young aspiring musicians coz they have A LOT to learn from this band's overall career.

[@dicodec]

These guys are great! Hope a lot more people pick up on them for sure. So glad they were reccomended to us.

[@davidjaramillo9486]

Holy shit i would never imagine you do shinna ringo!! I hope you do more!

[@dicodec]

I think we will. We really like this group. When? I am not sure but we will

[@donald-waters]

@@dicodec... Also, "Kenka Joto" translates to "Active Fighting" Most of the lyrics are already in English. Lyrics from the studio recording: "こっちの心根量らずと 一体如何云う御了見 そうした喧嘩は手前から 売ってやりんす上等よ 待てこら 未だ答えは 聞けちゃ居ないのさ 洗い浚い吐け 今宵は常套句なんて 通用しないと思え I'm so angry with you, sorry You should concentrate on cheering me up But it's too late now, you've lost your chance, it's gone You never once realized how bad our dilemma had got Stop it, honey, cheeky! Why can't you see it my way just this time? Silence, naughty, fussy! I am really sick, so sick, so sick of you And I hate you That's right you love me so much, don't you I should thank you for that, maybe But it's no use how what a giant waste of time Because I have never felt any weight in your words to me Shut-shut-shut-shut up! Stop it, honey, snooty! Why don't we just look at our bullshit then? Iffy, crappy, scrappy! You would be best off, far, far alone I am really sick, so sick, so sick of you And I hate you" *The studio recording does not have the breakdown.*

[@JazzFatcho]

Many Japanese musicians, not just MIKU, are Inspired by her sense of poetry and her way of singing. She composes, writes lyrics, plays multiple instruments, and sings. Ringo Sheena is a genius. Her background includes classical and jazz, as well as old and new rock music and pop songs. When she was young, she was a pioneer of Lady GAGA things in the 90's and early 2000's, I think.

[@dicodec]

Oh wow, that is awesome! She is such a boss!

[@maxxiong3933]

@@dicodec She is actually a boss of an entertainment company.

[@KingHarris11]

I was listening to your other Tokyo Incidents reaction (again) last night and wondering when you’d get round to this exact song. Good timing! Looking forward to more (and some of Sheena Ringo’s solo work)

[@dicodec]

Haha funny how that works. We are so down. Not sure when but we will

[@UMA-chan]

この歌の歌詞を聞くと背筋が伸びて気持ちが引き締められる気がします。 私達が励まされる歌です。

[@KK-ig6wl]

Thank you for reacting to this song. I love the vocalist, that is one of the most famous singer in Japan called Sheena Ringo, so I justly love Tokyo Incidents(Incidents Tokyo), too. This song has me become awake to belonging to Japan and proud of it.

[@dicodec]

Oh awesome! She is definitely great. Love her vocals.

[@カルボキシ]

コロナと2020年のオリンピックの躓きで落ち込んでいた日本人を応援するための歌です

[@Jaqueli9er]

If I'm not mistaken, the whole band produced the album along with Uni Inoue, a sound engineer that has been working with Ringo since forever (I wanna say since 1998, but I'm not sure). The whole band made the arrangement for this album, but in this particular song, the lyrics were written by Ringo and the music was composed by Izawa Ichiyou (the guy taking a bath, that plays the keys and piano). Also, the outro song is an excerpt from track 3 in the album, called Lightning (it is one of my favorites in the new album called "Music")

[@dicodec]

Oh wow, very cool! We'll definitely have to check it out 🤘

[@SGlwg]

Love this! More of them please !

[@dicodec]

They are so dope! We would love to check out more

[@z_a_k_u]

Good Choice & Good Reaction！😉👍 Next "椎名林檎 - 長く短い祭 from百鬼夜行" ”東京事変 - 幕ノ内サディスティック”

[@dicodec]

Thanks!

[@quen2088]

Love the music video It’s authentic🤩

[@dicodec]

Same here!

[@royalgreen5280]

I highly recommend Gunjou Biyori（群青日和）, a famous rock number by Tokyo Incidents（東京事変）,featuring Ringo Shiina strumming her guitar in the music video.

[@dicodec]

Sounds dope! We'll check it out

[@e13yamato]

[@СветланаКаплан-о2я]

Beautiful video, light music. I liked the song. Thank you, dear ones.

[@dicodec]

Glad you enjoyed it Svetlana ❤

[@e13yamato]

Nice!!! Very good sound !!! I love Tokyo Incidents

[@IncidentsShibuya]

you guys need to check more live performance video of Tokyo Incidents. The arrangement are so different to the studio ones. And you can observe the band members' style. THEY ARE ALL SO PERFECT musicians in Japan.

[@BenkaiDebussy]

Shiina Ringo is unquestionably my favorite musician/artist, and I've been blessed to have been enjoying her music since I was 15 years old in 2000.

[@dicodec]

Very cool! She is awesome

[@footy888]

This vocalist Ringo is one of the Miku's musical roots.

[@dicodec]

Yup yup, that is so dope

[@azarashi1996]

soooo gooood

[@dicodec]

Yeah these guys are great. Really like them alot

[@azarashi1996]

@@dicodec Their songs are all great like MTH’s songs are all great :) Please react more and more👍

[@yumariley6758]

Thank you for doing the reaction of my favourite band! The song is one of their masterpieces. Love their playing technique especially the drummer’s open hand. Apparently they choose places for their live music according to reflection of sounds. Hope I’ll see more Tokyo incidents/Sheena Ringo react!

[@dicodec]

It was our pleasure these guys are great and we look forward to reacting to more.

[@smilelessbass]

Love it!

[@dicodec]

Awesome! 😀

[@mansyursupriyadi]

Nice music and vocals ❤✌☕

[@dicodec]

Agreed 🤝

[@K.H.D710]

Ringo Shiina (vocalist/lyricist/composer) is admired by many female musicians in Japan and Miku is one of them. When Miku decided to form the band, she was thinking about creating a band like "Tokyo Incidents" (in terms of "cool" music). As Eric commented, this band had a great influence to Miku. So we Maidiacs should thank to Tokyo Incidents, I think. I am a fan of Ringo Shiina, btw😁

[@dicodec]

So dope!

[@Porifera-Jaymen]

Incredible album. Think it's just called Music

[@xSwampManx]

React to Noudouteki Sanpunkan (能動的三分間) by them. Hands down one of their best songs. It's kind of an old song now but damn if it isn't a blast to listen to.

[@quen2088]

100% agree! It was the first song that I knew from them

[@dicodec]

We're game!

[@СветланаКаплан-о2я]

Красивое видео, лёгкая музыка. Мне понравилась песня. Спасибо, дорогие.

[@rudymeixell3426]

Plenty of heavy moments in Tokyo Jihen. Look for proto-TJ solo Shiina Ringo "Electric Mole" (concert name) version of Kuki. Not sure it's currently on youtube. But if you want heavy. . . Anyway, I love to watch people discovering Tokyo Jihen.

[@rudymeixell3426]

Findable (for now) under: 시이나링고(椎名林檎)-stem(茎, kuki)

[@realdocloco]

One of my favorite TJ heavy moments is "Put your Antenna Up" - there's live version on YT, highly recommended

[@maxmaximillian3626]

Nice song, good voice 👌👌👌👌👌🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@dicodec]

Glad you like it Max!

[@caffeine6329]

The legend of J-pop. Most Japanese musicians admire them.

[@dicodec]

That's pretty dope. The guys are legit

[@oto....]

最高だよねー😊

[@cody6392]

More Sheena Ringo or Tokyo Incidents pls!!!! Their songs are incredible!

[@dicodec]

We are so down!

[@cody6392]

@@dicodec This song is from their latest album in this year. It is brilliant, but I think the perfect albums of musicality are Adult and Variety of Tokyo Incidents, Heisei Fuuzoku and Kalk Samen Chestnut Flower of Sheena Ringo. Absolutely INSANE. I recommend five songs of her and her band: Powder Up My Mind (化粧直し), The Rat's-Nest (修羅場), The Citizens (某都民), Religion (宗教), Gamble (ギャンブル).

[@hardbros2021]

Tokyo Jihen 🤘🏽🤘🏽

[@dicodec]

Whoop whoop!

[@ts7801]

Sheena Ringo WAS a member of Directors of Tokyo Olympics ceremony. You know,, Olympic ceremony was scaled down. So, she resiged. This is a great disappointment. But, She was a Music Director of Rio Olympics, Paralympics closing ceremony, "Flag Handover ceremony to Tokyo 2020". This was also awesome. You can find some movies in KZbin.

[@dicodec]

Oh wow, that is dope!

[@IamStrangreen]

Another reason to hate covid! I was expecting like a madmen for the Olympics opening just for her and it made me really sad when all this shit with covid cancel a lot of massive events 😔

[@socotroquito2007]

Yep she did an amazing presentation for the Paralympics in Brazil , that was Sheena ‘s Apple magic!

[@masdzulfikar6201]

Shounan, shuraba, omatsuri sawagi, blackout, etc. Tokyo Jihen has many amazing songs.

[@dicodec]

So dope, definitely need to check out more.

[@IamStrangreen]

She was on charge for the Olympics opening but all the covid shit made it impossible and perhaps we won't see anything anymore 😔

[@dicodec]

That's so lame!

[@RudiTheMan]

Sounds nice, I like Jazzy stuff,

[@dicodec]

Dope! Gotta love some jazz

[@RudiTheMan]

@@dicodec yep, Jazz is like the mother of all music genre, modern ones at least,

[@spinnymathingy3149]

Where will it end, is there no limit to great Japanese music 🎶, seems every week I find another top notch group I’ve never heard before, a few years ago I thought music was at an end, boring, then I found Japan 😄 I stumbled across another similar to this (but way more refined) called ZUTOMAYO , My Spotify is almost fully in Japanese now, growing up on Aussie Pub Rock , would never have guessed ✌️

[@dicodec]

Hell yeah, put sentiments exactly my friend! My family pointed it out recently and I don't care. It's too good not to listen haha. -Eric 🤘

[@phillipgregory9671]

Japan loves jazz rock fusion

[@dicodec]

Haha right! So do we, here in Dicodec. 🤘

[@2abug]

4:26 yeah I like it too when you have a crazy solo and then, it suddenly stops. It's really catchy. But it doesn't work when you stop the video before the end of the solo. Not catchy at all 😛

[@dicodec]

I know, but we do rewind most of the time.

[@さゆり田中-q4y]

Almost Japanese musician respect them.maybe.

[@dicodec]

I believe it

[@j_lllin]

Omgggg can you guys react to “3 min” by them🥺🥺🥺 能動的三分間 is the Japanese title!

[@dicodec]

Sure thing 😀

[@brombrombromley]

Could you listen to one of Sheena Ringo's solo songs, いろはにほへと (Irohanihoheto)
