3 years later and it is still one of the most powerful moments in music history.

One Ok Rock- Nobody’s home live at Yokohama arena!!! This song is also very emotional and he is crying during this performance This song is an apology to his parents Taka dropped out of high school to pursue music and his parents were not supportive of his dream So this song is very personal

Because his parents are famous singers, so they know how hard it is to pursue music.

これこそ日本人の力歌の底力！ これが日本のpower これこそが本物の合唱っというものだ。 皆で最後抱き合って泣いたり最高じゃん

18歳って人間の一括りの変わり目だと思います 当時地上波で見ましたがあれから数年経った今でもWe are(18祭ver.)を忘れたことはありません。今でもワンオクを漁っては必ずこの曲に行きついてますし、初めて聞いた時は鳥肌と感じたことの無い感動に包まれていたのをいまだに覚えています。

I'm so glad you enjoyed that, I think it makes the world a better place just by existing. A few days ago I found the whole programme on KZread, the making of this event. The band advertised across Japan for 18 and 19 year old people to send in a video audition to show why they should be part some unspecified performance with the band. They watched the videos of people singing, dancing, cycling ridiculous distances, and thousands of other odd things to show their abilities and determination. 1000 were chosen and brought together in groups around the country where they were trained by a professional voice coach, who actually worked with Taka on a regular basis, to sing this song. Eventually they all came together for the performance and, as you saw, smashed it in a single take. Several of the 1000 were followed on their journey and it was very inspiring and emotional. There's nothing about this event that I don't love. On an unrelated note, just because I'm excited, I got tickets to see the band in London this coming December! I couldn't be happier right now. Thanks for the video, it's contributing a lot to my happiness.

In addition to what Caradoc93 has mentioned, the main purpose of this was to kinda break the stereotype where "18-year-olds are still not mature enough" and the like, its like the spot where you're not a children anymore, but still get treated as kids and not old enough to be "an adult". With that, NHK (Japan's national public broadcasting organisation) started a project called "18 Fes" for them to pour out their feelings and emotions, with the collaboration of ONE OK ROCK, who have huge influences on the youngsters in Japan. And to be more specific, the pre-requisite for the videos were "Seriousness" and "Enthusiasm". And what followed was what Caradoc93 has mentioned, and finally in this video. On a side note, the documentary also shows that some of the participants had difficult past experiences or with concurrent difficulties from various causes. All the more reason why this is so emotional. P/S: Do correct me if I'm wrong anywhere. Cheers.

right! just awesome

First time i watched this video there was no Eng sub.My age now can be those kid parent.I can understand a little Japanese( and English) and I cried while I watched it.You know we all pass those time of teenage and got those experinces before.This song have such a great meaning.I love OOR song 'cause some of the lyric hit so hard on people's heart.Keep going OOR.

Both parents lived comfortablly as children of a famous singer,taking exams at super-famous prestigous schools ranging from Kindergarten to university. I became a Junior highschool student and made my debut as a member of an idol group from entertainment production,but due to my father's opposition,I withdrew from the idol group and quit production in order to concentrate on my studies .Then,after going on to highschool and going through a year,he decided to go on the path of music,overwhelmed his father's opposition and volantarily dropped out of highschool. As a result,he was disowned by his father and then his parents divorced due to differences in educational policies.The children were taken over by their mother,but Taka a left home,worked part-time and lived on his own.attended a music school,learned to play the guitar and write songs,and began his career as a singer-songwriter. He said that be made this song because he had a past and wanted to tell from his own experience that if he pushes forward with pass ion.he will open the way without misleading or lying about what he wants to do,Think.That's why I think this song will strike everyone's hearts!

Love this song and the participation of the audience. It is the greatest anthem for our time. I love Japanese kids, they have so much heart. I have tears every time I see and hear this song.

What the man on the right said at the end totally describe how I felt with OOR’s video. I felt like there were some sort of a spiritual energy, and It’s really amazing to feel it even though we weren’t there with them. All of them felt exactly the same on that day. They should do it again because wow

I know of this band since my high school years, their first few mvs are very dope too. They’re the one of the best in jrock and always the innovative and unique group! Thanks for relieving the nostalgia, it’s been a while oneokrock!

Thanks for reacting this One Ok Rock video. I have the same feeling when I come across this video, I felt emotional and inspired by watching this video.I love most of their songs but this song really has a big impact to me personally.

A rock group being an inspiration to the young. UNICEF make them your ambassador

You don't know how loud i screamed when i saw this on yr playlist. Thanks a lot for the reaction, and couldn't thank you enough for spending your time to find the video and made the reaction.. I know it's kinda complicated to make a reaction video to japan stuff bcs they are more strict for their copyright, esp for the live perf. As always, I do really enjoy watching your video and you're one of the best youtuber that doing this reaction stuff. Esp when others get & understand the message that OOR wanted to convey, not only to their fans, but also to all around the world. It's so touched and emotional to see how people perceive OOR as a band, and from your words on every video. That shows that they have succeed in changing the perception of others towards rock music. Just like me, at first i thought rock is just a loud music, so i never willing to listen to any of them, but OOR is definitely send you some powerful and meaningful message that you never expect to receive from a band thru music.. in which sometimes they made us to think more about something that we never care before.. yet it's very significant. I'm so glad to stumble into your video from heartache until now, you've worked so hard! 💕

My fave JRock band. Their live performances are amazing!!

One ok rock is on my Playlist now I really love this band they sung well and unique combination of song and lyrics as well, amazing i am so overwhelm

WOW!!! thanks 🙏 arigatou ！👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻✌️😁✌️❤️🇯🇵 Here’s Taka’s definition of “ROCK” means; “ I think the definition of “rock” changes depending on the band itself and the generation. There’s not one solid definition... I think “rock “ means your ability to find a connection between your way of living and the way you do your music. For us, if you can work hard on something, never give up, keep doing on what you do and move forward, I think that the best definition of “ ROCK n ROLL.”

Thank you for reacting to it . Everytime i watch this always gets me emotional . The lyrics means so much to me .

I saw One OK Rock in Albuquerque a few years ago. They were fantastic and I was so grateful for a band from Japan to play here. I usually have to go to LA or SF to see great groups from Japan and still that is very rare. America just doesn't get it and is so living in the past. I'm just grateful that I have access to the music and culture from Japan and S. Korea. I may be the only one here but I'm not alone because there are people all over the world who do get it.

'We are'waiting this😍 Thanks uploading!!

Such a glorious performance by the band and the people in the crowd! Totally feels like you're part of the act just by singing along with them. Powerful stuff. Please react to X Japan - Endless Rain/Kurenai/Rusty Nail (from their last live). Another very powerful and emotional live performance. They were probably the most popular band in Japan during the 90s until they broke up. Their live performances were incredible!

The message of the song is powerful. I love them.

The Japan audience always amazed me

I've seen them about five times live and they are awesome and make people cry listening to them

Damn, I haven’t seen that before. That was very impressive. How can so many people sing so correctly? They sound like a choir.

WE ARE 18th Festival is just amazing...thank you for your wonderful reaction!

Thank you for reacting to this! I've been waiting! You should react to their new single "Change" if you want another song of theirs that has a great message

This is my favorite One Ok Rock video! It’s just so beautiful!

you guys HAVE to react to "Nobody's Home" the live performance. Its an older one, hes much younger but theres so much emotion conveyed through it if you read the comments youll understand why. The guy sings from the heart.

Knew you guys would love this. One Ok Rock went above and beyond for "We Are", and then rocketed it up into space when they wanted the kids to be part of it. Such amazing emotional impact that just hits you. Another fun little thing about One Ok Rock is that for many of their newer works like "We Are", they've made 2 versions of the song. One is in their classic Japanese and English combo, but the second one is entirely in English. Now, the literal meaning of the lyrics does often change between the 2 versions, but the messages and themes all stay the same. So, if you guys are curious, here's a link to the English version of *_"We Are"._* kzread.info/dash/bejne/oIlnkpmthpaYcpM.html

Thank you so much)))) I'm very happy to see how you enjoying by their music)))One Ok Rock the best!!!!

One Ok Rock rocks. They are really good

We Are is the first song of OOR that I listen 😆 The lyrics is so good!! That's why now I really love OOR!! Thanks for reacting to this song!! Please continue to react to OOR!!

I love OKR. Taka used to be in a Japanese Idol group when he was younger. I still follow the idol groups from his former agency, Johnny's Entertainment. The idol group i have been following since 2005 is Arashi. Best check them out before they go into hiatus by 2021.

I remember I was crying when I was watching this performance for the first time, it was very emotional, love it.

Thank you for reacting to this! This is one of the best live performances out there.

The story behind this collaboration is fantastic- 18 yr olds in Japan received rigjt to vote. Story in KZread with English subtitles. 1000 teens from all over Japan were chosen for thid. OK Rock os iconic.

Thank you so much for this reaction. This performance gets me every time. And when you said about the connection, they really do have that with their audience.

CLOCK STRIKES at Yokohama Stadium next...please

you're not the first people to call this particular performance 'spiritual'. haha. another super heartfelt song by one ok rock is 'nobody's home' because taka wrote it as an apology to his parents. you should watch the live performance from yokohama arena, taka gets super emotional and cries.
