I Was Not Prepared For This!! One Ok Rock - Take What You Want - Aussie Producer Reaction

[@snarkylittlemarshmallow4554]

I went to see One Ok Rock on the Luxury Disease NA tour and I'm not gonna lie, I was not having a good day. I drove 4 hours to Cleveland and admittedly was too tired to sleep properly beforehand, so I was running on maybe 2 hours of sleep and a monster. Then I stood in line for several hours. By the time the opening acts started I had been awake for over 12 hours. I was exhausted. They were good acts but by the time the second openers played their set I couldn't even move to jump around. I was honestly scared I wouldn't even enjoy the show. Then the lights go down for the final time that night. The introduction starts playing, the band walks out, and it's like I was never tired in the first place. The crowd goes *ballistic*. They're singing along so loud it rocks the venue and I am too. Suddenly exhaustion is a foreign concept, something so far away from this moment, right now, even though I was about to die on my feet not 5 minutes earlier. It was the best concert I've ever been to. There is something out of this world about this band and I'm so happy to see more and more people like you find them too. Thank you so much for your reaction!! I recommend "Cry Out" from Ambitions Japan Dome Tour and "Mighty Long Fall" at Yokohama.... arena or stadium? I think they've done both? I like the one with the fire, personally, but it's OOR, so you can't go wrong either way lol. Thank you again for your reaction!

[@marisaheymann3759]

I saw them too in October. I'm 52 and a metal/good music girl. I have been to a lot of concerts as a matter of fact, two weeks prior saw mcr and I thought I had seen my dream concert but no. I was wrong OOR will for ever be my favorite band and concert of at least 4 decades. 😆 I'm glad to hear that I'm not overreacting to how I feel about this band. They are definitely something special ❤

[@snarkylittlemarshmallow4554]

@@marisaheymann3759 you're definitely not the only one who feels that way, not at all! I'll admit I haven't been to as many concerts as I would like, being 24 and broke lol, but what I can tell you is this: I have never in my life been so instantaneously wired. Never, not once, has anyone's mere presence just flat out changed the entire state of my existence. Fatigue clings to me like a needy toddler and while I've moved past it many times over... when Taka, Toru, Tomoya, and Ryota walked out it was like my body had never known pain or exhaustion in my life. I existed almost outside of the physical world. I still don't have words to describe it. All that is to say, those guys... what they do is magic. It makes me so happy that so many other people with all kinds of different experiences can feel that with me too! Thank you for your story and for loving OOR!!

[@lillianlynn09]

I was there too in Cleveland OH!! The crowd was crazy could hardly move but OOR were sooo amazing I didn't mind the crowd after they came out!! Seeing OOR live is def a must!! Love them! ( I was on the right side of the stage 2 ft away from Taka) ;)

[@snarkylittlemarshmallow4554]

@@lillianlynn09 omg concert buddies!! It was a much bigger crowd than I thought that tiny place could hold! And you had such a good spot! I was on the right side, in front of Toru :D

[@WastedTalent83]

that's called being a fangirl ... You were just pouting before for a little struggle, of course all your "magical" problems went out of the window when your idol started to sing, it was no a big deal in the first place. When you do something you like you forget about the rest. Not to say One ok rock are not good, they are absolutely Exceptional , no question asked.

You can see there were THOUSANDS of people there, and not a SINGLE SOUND was made during that long, long silence. Every time I watch this performance, I am still stunned by that. It's such a heartbreaking breakup song. Kills me and always makes me tear up.

One of the great live performance videos.

[@mitrikgaduk347]

So some background on that "moment of silence", it was in dedication to the late Chester Bennington of Linkin Park. Chester was Taka's hero, One Ok Rock took a great deal of inspiration from Linkin Park, and after Chester's passing, they paid tribute to him, and covered One More Light during numerous shows. Taka also participated at Chester's tribute concert and later got to to feature in a live performance with Mike Shinoda. (Many fans have cited this as being the reason for the elongated moment of silence, what's chilling is how well it worked, it was like the perfect song to do it with, as the lyrics just hit so much harder. It's honestly one of the most unique ways I've seen a band incorporate something like this and the most sincere.)

[@dragulia_venaro]

it's also because Taka was being sick right before this performance, so the concert was delayed for awhile, yet he still force himself to come out on the stage like that. so he take break for a moment and keep quite before finally breaking the silence with that soaring note.

[@mplahke]

My understanding is that it's about the divorce of his parents--"take what you want and go" was actually said by one to the other.

[@kuroneko7022]

Taka was sick during this concert and my Japanese friend said he even apologized to the crowd for his voice - I was like, WHAT? He sounded that amazing sick? Taka is the ultimate professional and in true honorable Japanese style he apologized and thanked the crowd. This band is on another level.❤

[@keturatoussaint4283]

I really appreciate your reaction. In fact Taka was ill and had a very bad memory from this concert. The next day he apologized on Instagram for the bad performance he had. So, I can't imagine how the song would have sound of he was at his top. He's not from this world, the whole band isn't. Thank you so much!

[@Lishelle53]

Deeper Deeper, One by One, Memories, Liar, Ending Story, and my favorite The Beginning!!! These are all fantastic to watch live!

[@Traum_Taenzer]

i also recommend his cover of Adele's Hello, really showcases his full range :)

[@tameradrake2484]

Mighty long fall is also a great one

[@ムーミソ-s5d]

Thank you 😢😢😢❤❤❤

[@rebeccabeebe1]

Taka has an amazing ability to control the crowds.. it's an incredible feeling to be apart of.. they are a band I will see live everytime they come to my city

Thank you for reacting them. Their live performances always hit me different and that's why i love them. Please react to Cry Out (from this same Ambitions Japan Dome Tour), and Taking Off (from Field of Wonder). It's amazing!

[@mevius10969]

❤I Agree🎉

[@黃梅秀-q6e]

Wow ⋯⋯Taka’s emotional voice make me cry !😢😢😢😢😢

[@sophieworld2669]

Maybe you can try some different genre from them, hardcore rock song like "Deeper Deeper live in Yokohama Stadium", and discussed it after that. Thank You.

[@NapstaMeme]

sadness, silence, more silence, remembering, anger, and then acceptance. this live song felt like I just watched a person go through their own version of accepting the fact that their love didn't work out

[@emperialGal]

It was kpop for me before, but the moment I heard "The Beginning" live by One Ok Rock, all changed and I've been dying to go to one of their concerts.

[@dabloonkitty]

his voice always makes me wanna cry 😭😭

[@marisaheymann3759]

It's funny that you mentioned thirty seconds to Mars. They actually collaborated with five seconds of summer in that particular song. In my opinion one thier most powerful songs from them. I can feel the pain in every single note. Great reactions. Thank you 😊 💓

[@mikaruisan]

It's my Favorit Band since 8 years 🥺🤍🖤

[@mevius10969]

I think a lot of the reactions to this song talk about Japanese audiences. I think that Japan has a culture of listening since ancient times. It's fun to go live together outside of Japan, but I think the only place where you can enjoy listening to the detailed sounds of instruments and TAKA's voice is in Japan.

[@dragulia_venaro]

the most polite crowds in the world. no cap

[@purple9330]

If you wanna listen to other genres there are Mighty long fall, the beginning and push back. All of them are really great

[@thatbabiechoiceot5469]

Man i was crying with you. One Ok Rock saved my life more times than I would like to actually say. They're AMAZING performers and breathe LIFE into people. Pls continue to watch and support them

[@despairnephilim]

Hearing ONE OK ROCK live is completely different experience from the CD itself. Honestly this is one of the few bands I listen to that going live, doesn’t matter how many times you go in one tour, it’s always a new experience and is something that sticks with you. I’m not saying this because they’re my favorite band but they have something unique and very loving and welcoming to their fans. Is just a full experience with them. I highly recommend going to see them live. I remember when he sang this that tour they were supposed to tour with Linkin Park and unfortunately we lost Chester, the emotional experience throughout this entire song was so different and then when Taka sang One More Light, if I remember the title correctly, it hit like a thousand rocks on your body. I just remember crying the entire time he sang both songs. Taka is an amazing vocalist, not to mention Toru, Ryota and Tomoya as well. The band is just flat out amazing.

[@t4ka413]

Wasted night live version pls

[@Arieswithhydrocephalus]

I seen them about 6 or 7 times now and their live shows are the best hands down and when Taka cries EVERYONE cries💜

[@haengbokhae3869]

One Ok Rock is one of the best live acts ever! So cool that you got to see them!

[@Acitanul_Audiovisual]

cry out, stuck in the middle, one by one or mighty long fall may be some of their heavy songs that explore other emotions 🤗

I need to go to thier concert. I have never been before so this would be my first. I really wanna see them they are so awesome! And Taka's voice is so beautiful!. Thier music just brings me to life. I pray I can get the money and time to go to one of their concerts. Every time I listen to their songs, like it just takes me places. I haven't felt this much emotion from a song in a while!

[@blackvanilla4566]

Please do a reaction video of Clock strikes and The Beginning at Yokohama stadium! I was king is also a very good song

[@stellp2956]

In a class of their own !

[@M1Ck3yCS]

bro this tour it hosted by their own band, i mean its their own concert so they just take their time and make a good day for over 50 thousand of people

[@J10969]

I definitely recommend Deeper Deeper, Liar, and Skyfall for something different from their anthemic type music. 🤘🏼😝

[@samallott1486]

Taka's vocals during the beginning section reminds me of Daniel Johns Neon Ballroom era or instills the same emotional resonance.

[@Josh-dr3fj]

Glad you got to this, it’s the song I recommended on the last video you did of them, and it’s the same version, however we arrived I’m glad you got to it :)

[@PrymalChaos]

It was remarkable!

[@Suzuki.Manabu]

I love your reactions. By all means, more ONE OK ROCK reactions! We want to hear and see it! More pop music. More acoustic songs. More marvelous noisy rock. Your response and timing in the cool part of your song is donpical to my thoughts. Basically, we play rock, but we play it with strings in the background, or just acoustic instruments. The excellence of their playing technique becomes more apparent. I know the conversation has gone to talking about them, but I love your reactions too. I think reactions are all about timing and facial expressions. Comments are great, but I really like to see how you felt about the performance.

I went to a concert in Japan (Asian Kung-Fu Generation), and the quietness during the songs was remarkable. The audience really wants to listen the band and their music. I really appreciated that. It was like a combination of a performance art piece and rock show.

[@ChuumYao]

Deeper Deeper Live at Yokohama Stadium would be an interesting video of One Ok Rock for you to check out. It’s very different from this one, another would be Liar, the live version of course haha

[@user-yk1il1wn8v]

[@moranshinn]

I enjoy watching One Ok Rock performance reaction videos, always.. like, I'm glad people interested to watch their performances, and I'm thankful for that. Tbh, need more people to recognize how beautiful their music is. I become their fans in 2019, and I regret it so much not knowing them from longgg time ago. I searched everything I can find, their old concert videos, their performance ALWAYS amaze me. I suppose to watch their concert in 2020, I was very happy but its cancelled due the pandemic. Now I'm waiting them to announce their Asia Tour 😊 One Ok Rock will start their Japan tour this Saturday, and I'm so excited even I can't go there lol It will always been my dream to witness all of them to perform live with my own eyes ❤ I hope the day will come soon. Thank you for this reaction video, sir. I hope you'll enjoy their music as much as I do 😊 Have a good day! God bless.

[@PrymalChaos]

Thank you for watching! I’m definitely a fan now!

[@nov2011ful]

You should react to either the beginning, clock strikes, or mighty long fall. They are different than the songs you have listened to and some of them are a bit older. They started out as a rock band but during the last couple of years they have dived into some different genres but they still do rock and have said that they would like to go back to more rock than pop.

[@Paminjapan]

It is customery in Japan at concerts to be totally silent during a sentimental song, whether a tribute or sad type song. They will not clap when it's over either. They consider this action as a show of high respect.

[@AngelArrovvs]

Did you know this song was also a collab with 5SOS? The collab version is also very cool

[@danapagoada1854]

Taka el mejor

[@dereklan4649]

"All mine" live version just hit me differently, check it out

[@danielleg2179]

I recommend Mighty long fall if you want to hear more of a wild rock sound (with some screaming included), Smiling down which also has great rock vibes but is very emotional at the same time, Wasted nights, if you want to hear something more happy-go-lucky and Et cetera which is from their very first album and you can only find a very old live orchestra version, but Taka's voice is so raw and emotional, it's totally worth a listen (it's also an all japanese song so it's better with lyrics) (Ofc i recommend the live versions for all songs)

[@miraaranel]

Thank you for reacting to OOR! I believe the story behind the "broken home" is actually referring to Taka's relationship with his parents (although it could also be about a break up) - they're relationship seems to be okay now but was rocky for a very long time. Nobody's Home is another one that hints at his personal struggles. Like you were saying about vulnerability, I really appreciate when artists can get so personal/vulnerable and express their struggles

[@dragulia_venaro]

One Ok Rock is like "If you can't spread peace through religion, then spread it through music".
