A light snack for the mighty Yoyoka

[@Richard-wh9wm]

That’s hardly a light snack.

[@Ojb_1959]

@@Richard-wh9wmTo her it is grasshopper !

[@shabbychic2.0]

Exactly! 😆 She is so incredible.

[@CreamAle]

I texted this to Danny, turns our he's already subscribed and was beaming with joy already. Her future is brighter than our sun, and I absolutely love it. Keep it up, making everyone else happy to retire knowing the drumming world has another legend in the making.

[@rockingrandma4711]

Who is Danny?

[@rockingrandma4711]

Never mind, I guess he's a drummer of Tool ? I'm very happy to hear that he likes it😊

[@CreamAle]

@@rockingrandma4711 yes, that's their drummer. I think he's going to post something on Instagram when he gets the time, folks like yoyoka need to be encouraged to the absolute maximum.

[@rockingrandma4711]

Absolutely !! Thank you for your response. I never heard this song or the band Tool before till YOYO introduced to me, just like many other different types of music than the kinds of music that I used to listenin to in my days. After many listens, this music really started to grow on me and I can say that I LIKE IT!! There is something different about it. 😊

[@kurtschmidt9760]

My same thought. I asked my son if he liked tool and he said one of his favorite bands. So i made him listen to this. He is not a yoyoka fan. Never really gave me a response. My first time listening to tool and this song is growing on me and i have listened many times. Reactors and just her channel. Great drumming. Her home at last steely dan is great also@@rockingrandma4711

[@duncanidaho1006]

I have never seen anyone play Tool so relaxed and fluidly. Wow.

[@jkf9167]

Her superpower is making it seem like she could step in and be the drummer for whatever band she's covering. Even when she was 7, her "Good Times/Bad TImes" sounded more authentic than everyone else's.

[@Supesnik]

I've seen someone, Danny, one of the few real GOAT, and this song is one of their hard ones to play. I'm stunned.

[@semprini77]

Yoyoka brings her characteristic “swing” to Tool, and doesn’t even break a sweat. Amazing❤️

[@Hobodeluxe960]

there was one point she was really focusing but the rest of it was on cruise control for her. she's that good :)

[@wayne7725]

​@Hobodeluxe960 I agree 👍.

[@reason3581]

That might be the same swing that makes me prefer Yoyoka’s YYZ over the original although Neil Peart obviously is a technically better drummer.

[@bob2161]

This girl is so talented. It's impossible to not love her. I feel honored to have able to watch her grow and her skills expand and refine over the years. I feel like she's an almost close relative. I want her to succeed and conquer her goals, dreams, and wishes. I couldn't want this any more if she were my own child.

[@chrisegbertky]

So many of us feel as you do.

[@davidmacphee3549]

Her talent has grown beyond our comprehension like trying to imagine the Universe in our mind or putting our finger on it..

[@jkf9167]

What's so impressive is that she really makes this song her own. She even ads some things that Danny Carey wasn't doing. Those ghost notes on the snare for the part that starts at 1:57 are things of beauty and they weren't in the original. They work, they support the vocal, and they're incredibly precise. She makes the groove sound more intuitive and rock n' roll throughout the first half.

[@Rob-Yule]

That is the YOYOKA Effect!

[@davidmacphee3549]

She knows exactly what she's doing. It's in her blood somehow. Pete Best didn't seem to have that. Hmm ... Where did he go?

[@pcarhe]

I guess this song was too easy for her, so she added ghost notes to make it more challenging. 😀😀 I love when Yoyoka adds her own flair to the songs. That is why I prefer to say what she is doing is her interpretation, not just the cover.

[@lindigj]

It's funny, when you watch the progress of someone like this from a young age, they almost are like your own child. I'm actually beaming with pride for yoyoka. She is definitely fully realizing the potential she has always had and can't wait to see where she goes!

[@mephiston001]

It's all over, she covered Danny and did it in total boss mode. RESPECT

[@andrewplumb6544]

The first time she played it was live with no rehearsal at the Whisky A Go Go

[@HANGUEVARA-j9c]

YOYOKA is the living reincarnation of JOHN BONHAM, the late drummer of Led Zeppelin. Welcome back John.😊

[@SodiumWage]

I've been watching your channel since when you could barely reach the base and hi-hat pedals. But even back then I said to myself, "someday Yoyoka will play Forty Six & 2 and it will be glorious," and it IS glorious. Great cover!

[@chrisegbertky]

She performed this at the Whiskey a week or so ago - no rehearsal with a tight live band!

[@misterfugazi4110]

Please tell me someone recorded it. @@chrisegbertky

Yoyoka's cooking here, and by that I mean she's a master chef in the kitchen effortlessly whipping up a gourmet dish with ease and confidence!

[@benjamindoverr3455]

I live in NY, but might have to fly to LA soon just to see Yoyoka play live. This young lady is making history.

[@Rob-Yule]

I flew from Toronto to LV to see her live in April! Do it!

[@Richard.Cabeza]

I am definitely going to seek out one of her performances when I'm in the states.

Danny Carey would be impressed with this effortless performance, I hope he gets to see it. Great as always Yoyo and very enjoyable to watch. Thank you. Pat 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

[@brentcollins9727]

This was her best recording yet. The left-right separation through my Sonus Faber speakers makes it seem like I’m right there. My wife just yelled from the other room for me to turn it down. 😂

[@keithallpress9885]

You just have to say you are sorry but some things just have to be played loud and you will make it up to her. Pump up the volume pump up the volume pump up the volume check it out brothers and sisters!

[@nikolai_art]

People in here not knowing Tool is kind of funny. But if you liked this amazing cover you are in for another treat. Load up that Tool playlist.

[@minimalist_survival]

The covers help pay the bills, but you can see she's ready for the next level. We should start seeing Yoyoka's creativity start to break through. The future is exciting.

[@chrisegbertky]

She is working on new music with a producer and a singer/songwriter now. We think she might be laying down bass lines as well as drums!

[@gustafsone]

You're not wrong, but do you realize how absolutely insane it is to say "she's ready for the next level" right after covering Danny -freaking- Carey to perfection!???

[@janbleeker]

Covers do not pay bills. The YT money goes to the copyright holders. So covers cost money! Originals do pay bills.

[@pcarhe]

She recorded two jazz albums this year. Working on the new song just now. And she would like to record her own album, but that is very costly. That is the problem.

[@janbleeker]

Yeah, making music is an expensive hobby.

[@caryd67]

It’s refreshing to hear a young drummer of this time who actually allows her drums to ring out with glorious sustain. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 Say no to flat, dead sounding drums!! Wonderful playing, young lady 🫶🏻✌🏻

[@Rob-Yule]

Hear hear!

[@coredump27]

Wow! I'd long hoped to hear Yoyoka cover Tool, and she did not disappoint. Here's hoping we hear covers of Pneuma and Schism in due course.

[@namorlam]

Absolutely sublime, I didn't know this group and Yoyoka introduces us to a whole new musical universe. My God, Yoyoka is growing up at great speed.

[@Hobodeluxe960]

Tool i a prog rock rabbit hole, some really good stuff but not everyone is a fan. check out the song "The Pot" for one of their more popular songs.

[@slowbluesmaster]

From the song's Wiki page "The song is mostly in 4/4 time with some sections of 7/8 in between. In the intro, Danny Carey plays four measures of 7/8 on his ride cymbal over the rest of the band playing in 4/4, and they all meet up on the downbeat of the 5th measure in 4/4. During the bridge there are three measures of 7/8 followed by one measure of 4/4. During a particular quad fill, the drums are in 3/8, the guitar plays one measure of 9/8 followed by one in 5/8 all while the bass keeps time in 7/8.[6] Most of the song is written in D Phrygian dominant scale, also known as the fifth mode of the G harmonic minor scale."

[@davidhammond7724]

@@slowbluesmaster Ah, that explains it! I thought I heard an unusual time signature, but when I started counted it was 4/4, so I thought I'd imagined it.

[@Mxulin]

Have fun getting in the tool rabbit hole!

[@busa89]

Tool has been around for a very long time. Has some very talented musicians with their drummer being exceptionally fantastic. Lead singer has an incredibly unique voice as well. The band is very dark and at times strange and they should be listened to at a high volume. Worth your time to review their catalog. I think you'll enjoy it.

[@jkf9167]

My Yoyoka Top Three (in no particular order): 1) This one, 2) "What is Hip?", and 3) "Speed King".

[@gregorytrotter6657]

Whatever she is playing, she sees the whole and all the components at the same time. She expressly performes every passage as its own composition, building toward a crescendo of composite perfection. (Yes, I write fiction. So what!)

[@davebullock3517]

She made this look almost boring for her to play, so effortless. Great job!

[@stucky101]

This was so easy, Yoyo was probably solving an advanced math problem at the same time in her head to keep her occupied. 😀

[@tomtompkins7546]

Let's forget for a minute about her monstrous technique. How about that drum tuning? That snare sounds ridiculous, and those toms are just killing it. She is the consummate player.

[@kdfox2007]

Proving that Yoyoka plays better than anyone in her sleep 😂

[@elliott8339]

Daniel Edwin Carey (born May 10, 1961)[1] is an American musician and songwriter. He is the drummer for the American rock band Tool. He was ranked among the 100 greatest drummers of all time by Rolling Stone magazine, occupying the 26th position,. Yoyoka smoked this thing.

[@wayne7725]

Yoyoka was ranked in the top 500 all time at age11 and she definitely nailed it.👍

[@allenm.1537]

This young lady is unbelievably amazing. It makes me feel like throwing every recording of me and bands I've played with in the past 40+ years in the trash. I did have fun but what a waste of time.

[@Rob-Yule]

Playing music is never a waste of time! YOYOKA inspired me to take up the drums at 61! I suck totally but have fun!

[@koma-1122]

UP されてから10数回聴いて最初の感動から更に深まっています。元々JAZZ一筋の私がYOYOKAファン歴6年でしたが正直JAZZには無いロックの魅力をこの曲で初めて感じさせてもらいました。曲の持つ魅力を極限まで引き出す技術、感性、体力を見事に獲得されましたね。

[@davidmacphee3549]

Translation : koma- 1122 I've listened to it more than 10 times since it was uploaded, and my initial impression has deepened even further. I've been a YOYOKA fan for six years, and I've always been a jazz fan, but to be honest, this song made me feel for the first time the charm of rock that jazz doesn't have. You have masterfully acquired the technique, sensibility, and physical strength to bring out the charm of the songs to the utmost.

[@davidmacphee3549]

Yeah. We were kind of joking about her power and strength. Any boy would be over the fence. Pow! Now they are just ' Head over Heals' (expression) infatuated.

[@davidmacphee3549]

うん。 私たちは彼女の力と強さについて冗談を言っていました。 男の子なら誰でも柵を越えてしまうだろう。 捕虜！ 今、彼らはただ「ヘッド・オーバー・ヒールズ」（表現）に夢中になっています。 Un. Watashitachi wa kanojo no chikara to tsuyo-sa ni tsuite jōdan o itte imashita. Otokonokonara dare demo saku o koete

[@davidmacphee3549]

So the translation from English to Japanese and back to English prints this way. "Yeah. We were joking about her power and strength. Any boy would jump over the fence. POW! Now they're just into "Head Over Heels" (expression). Anyway, Yoyoka is doing very well learning English. She is Awesome! The original wording is as if she had to stand up to a danger boy he would be over the fence before he knew what hit him. Pow, Next time Fella, strait to the Moon, Wham Zoom!

[@davidmacphee3549]

したがって、英語から日本語への翻訳、および英語への翻訳はこのように印刷されます。 「ええ。私たちは彼女の力と強さについて冗談を言っていました。男の子なら誰でもフェンスを飛び越えるでしょう。捕虜！今、彼らはちょうど「ヘッドオーバーヒール」（表現）に夢中です。とにかく、よよかは英語の勉強がとても上手です。彼女は素晴らしいです ! 元の文言は、あたかも彼女が危険な少年に立ち向かわなければならなかったようなもので、彼が何が彼に当たるか知る前にフェンスを越えてしまうだろうというものです。 Shitagatte, eigo kara nihongo e no hon'yaku, oyobi eigo e no hon'yaku wa kono yō ni insatsu sa remasu. `Ē.
