YOYOKA - Sparkling (Dad&DaughterReaction)

[@andrewplumb6544]

Hi, you asked about the band. This was a collaboration internationally, basically while Yoyka was still 11. The musicians were a former Dream Theatre member on keyboards, Derek Sherinian, Prince's bass player, Rhonda Smith and a US based Japanese guitarist Yulihide Takiyama who co-wrote the piece. Mixing engineer is a grammy award winner! She played the Xylophone herself which was a gift from Ellen Degeneres. This is all to be found on Yoyoka's own channel. She is now publishing covers again weekly. Fool in the rain and When the Levee Breaks are fresh and as good as you will find. Others from Yoyoka's Army will be along shortly. Thanks for your enthusiasm.

Her one take self cover of her own Sparkling tune is even more impressive...no cutaways....just her burying her own track.

Whoop 🙌🖤

YOYOKA actually co-wrote this song. From the time this song was completed, until the time of the actual recording of this official video was only 5 days. Not a long time for her to learn to play it to perfection, but of course, she nailed it! You talked about advert for sports. Not sure what the actual intent of the song was, or whether this was planned or not, but this song was picked up by her local professional football team (soccer for Americans) as their official venue song and is played on the JumboTron before each game. The sports figures in the video said it was an honor to work with YOYOKA and most or all them vowed to play it for inspiration before each game.

So amazing Thankies Glen for this info 🖤🤘🖤

What I heard from Yoyoka and her Dad, in a Japanese interview, the budget for the project got so tight they couldn't afford real actors so they changed direction and went to two local sports teams for volunteers and put together a storyline. And yes, my eyes were practically bleeding afterI actually sitting through a 20 minute interview, in Japanese, so having to speed-read the English captions 😵‍💫

@@BostonBrian324 Yes, I remember that.

Ellen Degeneres gave her the xylophone and yes she played the intro and outgoing on the xylophone as well. Yoyoka is focused on writing more music and collaboration with a wide array of musicians in these Los Angeles area. She is living in Oakland CA. She just dropped a cover of When the Levee Breaks by LZ and Fool in the Rain also by Led Zeppelin and that is a really difficult song requiring limb independence. She plays piano, guitar, bass and sings beautifully. Goofy 🤪 reaction! Right up YOYOKA's alley. May the YOYOKA Army.descend upon your channel and blow up your subscriber total!

Amaze balls

[@chrisegbertky]

And it kills! EllenPlaysBass's dad said that it took one take for the track(multiple for the visuals and of course for the backing vocals). Always he said YOYOKA laid down such a solid beat that everyone responded and nailed the performance. She enhanced the song from the very first beat with kick triplets. Listen you can easily tell the difference between the original recording and their recording.
