Exactly what I’d hoped for…and so much more! “Funk #49” topped my request list as I was counting on Yoyoka to use the free rein allowed by the song to add her own touches and then let loose during the “intermission”. She did just that, spicing it up with that infectiously playful style we all appreciate, and every aspect of her performance is a delight. Would definitely buy from again!

True

The same cuteness as when you were a 4yo. Only more masterful! Keep rocking 🤘.

She's awesome!

WOW!!!!!!

Such a good drummer and a high level of confidence for her age. Kudos!

She’s amazing

sharp, clean & relaxed

When she went to Pearl to pick out whatever she liked, she said at the time she did not want rack toms because she didn't like them, too small and no good sound. It was like she knew her mind then years ago, and what she wanted to do. Instead she said big effen floor toms, thanks. I am happy to see she held true to what she loves, and that seems to be big arena drummer type sound.

The confidence, joy, groove. Yeah there's something spiritual involved. This is not normal

Nothing makes me happier than watching a fellow drummer who looks like they are having SUCH a great time!

Agreeeeeeeeeeeed

sometimes watching a drummer playing in the pocket is so much better than a whole bunch of tricky complicated stuff. It's playing music vs playing drums.

That was phenomenal. What a tribute to the original drummer who performed this song.

Thanks again Yoyoka

The outro showcases her metronomic quality very impressively.

Watching this kid actually brings me to tears sometimes...

For the Steely Dan clan, I believe she’s recently covered, Home at Last.

Jim Fox was a very groovy drummer, when watch yoyoka play to the James gang you can see what a great drummer he was by the way she nails his technique !!

Funk yeah!

なんて素晴らしい選曲。 遥か50年以上前、深夜ラジオで聞いていい曲だなって思ったら、翌朝学校で友人に「これいいぞ」って見せられた手のひらに、ふぁんくなんばー49。 鮮やかに思い出がよみがえりました。 友人に教えてあげよう。 時を超えて最高の感動を伝えてくれる少女がいることを。

Joe Walsh and Yoyoka. What a combination!!!

I would say Mark Owens got his money's worth on this one! That middle section was 🔥

The great thing about a Joe Walsh song is he always leaves space for an artist to play around.

That big smile is priceless.

You are witnessing HISTORY. Embrace.

I love watching her face. She loves her art

I love the sheer joy Yoyoka has when she's playing.🙂 I would love to see Yoyoka performing "Manic Depression" by Jimi Hendrix and Mitch Mitchell. It's a 3/4 time beast.

What is it with Japan and female drummers?..........simply amazing!

She seems to be so happy which makes this awesomeness even better!!!!

yoyoka is an oasis. fantastic feel, taste and musicality

You are a dear angel you're awesome

I like how SHE decides when a song ends,,,,often addimg here own outtro flair . Truly loves rhythm !!

WoW !!!

She backhands that cymbal while she's in the groove!!!

昔懐かしいファンクロックですが古さを感じさせません、Yoyokaさんが現代風に蘇らせてくれました。 当時のファンには涙物でしょう。

The comfortability she has behind the kit is something any drummer strives for.

She is her own little show!

Luvs me some James Gang, Joe Walsh, Dale Peters,and Jim Fox were a great trio.

The James Gang members cheer: Yay! Yoyoka covered us!!

Yoyo,is Rock n Roll Awesomeness Queen 😍😎👍🎥🌟🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸💸❤️

I haven’t watched Yoyoka in a bit beige watching now tho, was wondering is her bass drum and snare in the rocknroll hall of fame now🇨🇦⚡️✌🏼

this "Kid", and a "Gurl" is so much better than so many more older drummers. She's amazing and not just in the basics, but in her own style and accents. She's got it all. Amazing and so so good! WOW!

1972 Eagles auditorium Seattle WA. I think....James Gang. A few reefers? Your hard work is obvious! Thank you!

Heard this song for years and just thought it was a Joe Walsh song. Didn’t know about James Gang. 🌈The More You Know 💫

よよかちゃんが凄いのは オリジナルをよりカッコ良くしちゃ って楽しんでるところ。 しかも今回はこの曲かよ😍渋い！ ここ数年毎回驚かされる選曲眼。 本当に末恐ろしい13歳だわ😇

直近の数曲は概要欄に記載も有りますがこのチャンネルのパトロンさんのリクエストによる演奏だそうですがそれもそれで凄い事ですね。

I have been smoking for 3 days, and no anxiety that cannot be removed with a delicious coffee or Soda. I owe it all to you, plus I've been exercising for 1 month.

Whenever I am having a bad day, I sit back and watch Yoyoka jam, and I am immediately filled with joy. There are plenty of talented drummers out there, but Yoyoka has a unique feel for the music she is playing, and her charisma pulls the listener right into the experience.

A special feature of these cover versions is that for the first time in the history of rock music you can see exactly what the drummer is really doing.

I agree. I've recommended a listen to a Yoyoka cover of a classic before listen to the original! Yoyoka reveals so much about a number.

This girl never ceases to amaze.....👍💪💰😎🇺🇸🦫🔥👏👏👏👏👏👏👌

She could not enjoy this music otherwise. What a gift

Lord have mercy! That breakdown at about the 1:41 mark that just keeps getting more outrageous as it blooms out knocked my ears into my watch pocket! Reminiscent of her breakdown on her cover of Virtual Insanity. But far longer and 4x more complex. She makes good stuff great. She makes great music epic. Go back and watch her cover of Black Dog ~ a LIVE version of a famously unique and difficult song to cover. This is such a treat to watch her expand and conquer style after style as she twists their tails with her own special MOJO! Hammer time Hokkaido Hammer time that is. Swimming pools and moviestars!

Say, Yoyoka, if you accept requests, this old and ailing fan would absolutely LOVE to see/hear you drum Zeppelin's "Kashmir!" I know it would be GREAT, because you NEVER disappoint. And if you ever perform on Florida's "Space Coast" anytime soon, I would love to see you perform in person. Best wishes to you, your mother, father and little brother! 🤟

So Good. She has a lot of time when she play. A PRO.

I've watched this many times now because it is so good but I've only just noticed the Final Fantasy tee shirt! For those who don't know Yoyoka provided drum parts for 18 tmusic tracks for Final Fantasy. I forget the series ID but you'll find it amongst Yoyoka's many vids. Well worth a listen or 10 . She is such a professional.

PRO!

Her fills are like a drum solo within the groove of the song. Only our YOYOKA can pull this off!

I have been watching this little tyke for her whole life and I have seen James gang eagles and everything else she's a treasure ❤

hello yoyoka so great seeing you happy an spreading the music what inspires you to share. life is a challenge embrace it an sail or swim with the currents . your so cute an thanks your mom since its mothers day an your father for there guide ence a loyal fan :-)

I was hoping Joe Walsh was gonna make a cameo with the cowbell...oh well it was out of this world Yoyoka!

Love it...More James Gang songs please!!!

Magical.. Mythical..Epic..Legendary..from the start. Happy..Happy..Happy.

James Gang always rocked

Yeeeee haaaawwww !!! Thanks very much Yoyoka !!!! 😁✌️

She is awesome

Yoyoka you are amazing. I wouldn't even imagine someone your age would ever know who the James gang is/was. And here you are doing a cover of Funk 49. You are incredible. Thank you

Awesome girl !!! Rock on \m/

"The YOYOKA Effect" at it's FUNKIEST BEST!

Outstanding choice. Not that it's highly-difficult, it's that groove. Man-o-manichevitz. Pocket much? Great to hear what you chose to do with the open space. Very tasty. Is that a new moving blanket? Thanks for your music.

She is a freak of nature my goodness. Her feel timing tone choice of rolls and her technique is just off the charts.. Absolutely incredible

Simply amazing! Love you Yoyoka!

Go Yo Yo go!!

I'm so glad to see she's sticking with itt!

W O W !!! Hope Joe sees this, he’d LOVE it!

This kind of jam really is her wheelhouse. Very nice.

Been following her since she was 6 she just gets better and better

I saw a banner at an event where you played. It said, "We were born to bring hope to the world". I believe it! You feel and share joy. What a blessing!

I respect for how humble she's always been and how down to earth her family despite this greatness

Most excellent cover! Thank you for sharing. ❤

Her choices to show off her talent are fascinating. How many 13 year olds have even heard of the James Gang? She is such a wonderful drummer and her joy radiates through every fill, kick and drumbeat.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

Yoyoka Has me clicking on her videos faster than ever

cannot believe what I'm hearing AND seeing

So right, so tight, so groovy, so in the pocket.

Another great choice! Thank you Mark Owens!

She nailed the drum solo as good if not better than the original. Wow !

Kid always puts a smile on my face

Loved James Gang back in the day. Yoyoka nailed it!

That is truly badass

U the man Girl. .... she is just off the hook. ... outstanding

🤘🤘🤘👍 rock on!

Wow..!!!!

So completely effortless. Yoyo is killing it without breaking a sweat. Jim Fox was the drummer for the James Gang (and may still be?) - I hate to use the vastly overused phrase, but it applies here that he is absolutely one of the most underrated drummers from the classic rock era. The James Gang disappeared from most of their fans' radar when Joe Walsh departed to become a solo artist and later of course, joined The Eagles and added significantly to their existing abundance of talent. But the James Gang continued with a new guitarist and stayed a little busy continuing to record and play live. I need to do a Wiki and check out the current status of the band and the great Jim Fox.

Excellent job!!!!!!!

Excellent.

What a special talent
