Well, they are covers of "popular songs" so they, at least, would make people interested in Ringo. I guess.

But really, if Honnou didn't work, stop trying. Your audience is clearly deaf. They turn on the radio to feel the vibrations on the tip of their fingers.
Clearly deaf, or cleary liking something else.
Seriously guys, Honnou is great... for you and other fans.

Anyway, there's one japanese song that I think might work with american audiences.
"Isho." by Cocco. Check it out.
Also, just for the sake of adding something else, I have a (girl) friend that loves "Be My Last" by Hikaru Utada. It's not my favourite song of hers, but I *do* like japanese music and my friend only likes 2 or 3 japanese songs. So I guess it tells something about the potentials of that song.
