100% of ONE OK ROCK

ONE OK ROCK, my fave jrock had an English song, titled "100%". Truly, they are amazing talented bunch of guys. Can't deny their technical skill and musicianship are superb. They already captured my attention with their Japanese songs/albums which are jam pack with electrifying, energetic and raw passion for rock music. Their powerful live acts transcend over language barrier, and captured my heart.

Check this out:


The "100% " English song would be a big plus because it will prove that they can go international...hope they will have a concert here. With it their talents will truly shine a brighter flame.

Read in one posted interview, Taka in vocals mentioned that writing and singing in English is not a piece of cake because he can't fully comprehend some words, thus in my opinion can't emotinally connect and interpret it intotality in his performance. But the 100% live act is not bad, it is even at par with their usual pulsating Japanese songs.

Now, having composed, written, sang and performed a song in English is a giant effort in taking a step closer to their ever growing non-Japanese fan base. Gratitude to ONE OK ROCK for your passion in rock music.

Thank you Tomoya; Thank you Toru; Thank you Alex; Thank you Taka; Thank you Ryota.
More Power, Gambatte!!!
