We're gonna check another J-O-1 song because you guys have requested so many new songs. Now, I know how to say their name properly. Thank you so much for correcting me in the comments. And it was hard to pick one of the songs, because there were so many suggestions. But one of the most suggested was icy. So that's what we gotta do. We gotta check the performance video and then a live performance. So it's a two- Guys, I also was told that not too long ago, this group used to have 11 members and they just cut to 9 members not too long ago, so there's this new smaller formation, but I think here in this era a year ago was still 11 members 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9. I could, no, 3. 6, 7, 8, 9. Oh, in this performance, I see 9, on the live, it's 11. So, it's, it's, it's, I think it's probably... when it was the change happening, I guess. Now, if at any point you guys are having fun, you are enjoying the reactions here on the channel, please don't forget, drop a like, subscribe to the channel, turn the notifications on and share the video in your socials with your friends, that's super helpful. We are trying to hit 25,000 subscribers in here, we are getting there, but still a little bit far, so I'm counting on you. Also, you can support me directly, you can go... and buy me a coffee, the links are in the description, that way I can keep new reactions coming out every single day. Let's jump in, because this is going to be a long one. Let's go. I'm ready, let's see. Oh, there were some members hiding. There's 11, okay. Okay, okay, I'm already this one, I'm already straight away vibing more than the song they just released for the USA market. I'm loving the vibe. I'm loving the beat. The feats are killing it, they are coming with attitudes, choreo, the vocals sound really nice. One thing these guys love, I don't have spaghetti arms, but you know they are doing those push-ups before recording those music videos, because that's all I see, it's arms. I'm sorry, I'm sorry I know this stuff, but I'm loving this so far. Hey, okay, all right, all right, all right, okay, me when I wake up in the morning, and My voice is still asleep, it's also the same. I have like this vocal fry. Now, I don't know which members have left the group, guys. I'm so sorry, I know they are very popular and they've been together for a while. So, I'm so sorry if your favorite members left the group and I don't know who left the group, okay? I'm usually not into like the neon green yellowish hair, but he's killing it with that green yellow hair. Okay, now I'm curious because we are going to react to a live version. I want to see how they keep the vocals going. Because if there's some backtrack, it's fine, because the choreo, it gets hardcore in some parts like this one. So, I want to see how stable and how good these guys are on this live performance. We will see when we get there. Ooh, let's love the camera work. I like this. And, come on. I like the vocal steam, I think. I see, definitely was a good suggestion. Because that's the thing, like, in both songs I've listened to, at the end, at, like, the bridge, we get some, like, some nice vocals coming through. So, I'm curious, I'm really curious to see if they get those nice vocals coming, like, through when it's life. I love that one of the things that I noticed these days, especially in, like, boy groups, K-pop, J-pop, P-pop, this, like, ripped look with, like, super baggage-ins, like, Mad Max kind of thing, like, end of the world. It is, like, super fashionable, and it's just like... It is like the look that boy groups know to look fancy and to look cool is this Mad Max kind of situation, end of the world. We are just fighting for our lives. Now, the song, very quickly before we jump in on the live performance. I really enjoyed the song. I really loved the beat. I loved, like, the evolution of the song, some nice vocals. I like when it entered, like, that I see the introduction of that, and then using and going with that motif for the chorus. I really liked it. I'm curious now to see if they gonna, like, kill it with a microphone. I see, I think two of them have... Britney Spears microphones, at least. The rest have end microphones. I don't know if it's a choice, I don't know what is it, we're gonna see. This was on La Posta, Tokyo Dome in 2025. So, it is a little old already. Now, if you got, if the video cuts in here to the end, it's because of copyrights, because... Sometimes we deal with that and you can see the whole thing on Patreon the links are in the description but fingers crossed you can see this everywhere and we can do it all together. Let's go for this live version and let's see how they perform on stage. Okay, a lot of effects okay, quarry-o-one-quiry-a-one-point quarry-o-one points Right, so I think there's like a very big mixture. Definitely all the microphones have a lot of stuff happening. This is not just like the vocal feeds with a tiny little bit of adjusting here and there. There's a lot of like, for sure, like, sound production that it's made live. And that is fine because they are dancing and it's okay. But... But it seems like the majority of them are singing the majority of stuff live as well. And they don't sound that bad. It's not awful. It's not terrible, because we've seen some groups. When they get life, even with all, like, the post-production and the production happening on the feeds, they do not sound great. But these guys, they seem to sound good. Okay, and they are killing it with a choreography, they are killing it with a choreo, they are bringing like some stability in the vocals, okay You definitely get the background track in there. We're getting to that section where we get some ad limbs happening, we gotta get some of the vocals coming, let's pay attention to see, like, how do they come. I see... I think this guy, I noticed... I think he is one of the ones that have the least effects and that have the least things happening because he seems to be the most unstable, the most real voice. Because a lot of voices, a lot of times they don't sound real because they have so many things happening and it's just like, this is too perfect. Like, it doesn't matter when you're dancing like this and when you do like this, it doesn't matter how good is your voice and how good is your technique. He sounds great, but he still sounds like a person, you know what I mean? I think this is this guy, I don't know his name again, I'm sorry, but he seems to be the one with the microphone with the list effects. And there was another blonde one in there as well, not this one, the other one. Yes, the choreo, they are killing it. Okay. I would have loved for him to hold that note. You know, he was in his falsetto, and it sounded great, instead of just like, and cut it, go, hold that note. to make it like even a bigger moment, this is life, show us, give us some extra, give us some power, give us something fun, you know what I mean? I was a little bit afraid. I was just like, oh, this might be one of those situations that in studio, they juice them up so much, then life, they gotta just lose themselves. But I have to say that there are a lot of stuff happening. Yes, you can tell straight away, there's some back vocals, that a lot of adjustings. There's a lot of, like, a lot of, like, leveling and equalization, and probably some live autotune, and all that stuff is happening in the microphones. But that's a taken in, like, live performances like this, and it's fine. It's okay. Now, they do seem to be singing the biggest majority live. There are some really, really great voices, and... I think there were a couple of them that seem to be singing a little bit less live. The backtracks were a little bit more, like, stronger when it was their parts, and that's fine. Everyone have different skills, everyone have different qualities, maybe some have better dancers, some are better rappers, some are better this, so they might need that extra help. But in general, I really like the song, super catchy, the group is really good, I really have enjoyed the choreo, they brought the movement, they were on point, they did not fail, and in general, I think they are really good. Again, guys, this is just the second time, the second song I'm reacting to them. I'm gladly surprised that they are pretty good, and I have enjoyed this one. This was one of your suggestions. You guys have suggested so many different songs, so I decided to go with this one, because it was one of the most popular requests, and it was a really good one. Thank you so much to everyone that I've suggested this one. I'm also happy that I've decided to check the live vocals, because you guys know, we like some live vocals, especially these days, I think it is super, super important for us to want for... singers and musicians and artists to be able to give a good live show because technology have evolved so much it's not just about the singing these days it's not just about the lyrics we all know that like the music industry it's a lot about like how you put the show that we are kind of like living behind the singing and just like, oh, singing is not very important. If they can do it in studio and then they can lip sync to it, but put on a good show, it's okay, which sometimes it's fine for like one or two artists, but I think it's also important for the people to give some importance to the vocals and to want that their favorite singers and that favorite artists can sing. because that's kind of a big part of being a singer. Now, let me know if you want me to react to more J-O-1 in here. I have enjoyed, I say, very much. You can keep the suggestions coming once again. Now, I hope you were able to see these, if the video cut it earlier, welcome back. You... We just reacted to the live version.
