Well, he ain't got the feeling really, but still kind of a thing to applaude don't you think. I realized when they told about it on Music Station a few weeks ago. I think this guy has or used to have a Japanese girlfriend, and wanted to practice his Japanese but doing a thing like this. :-)

Well I love weezer because they influenced one of my all time favorite bands, ozma!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well anyways, I really really needed that. His japanese makes my japanese seem native But just the fact that he covered a japanese song is good enough for me. More geek rockers should cover j-pop songs, Geek rock come save me from my horrible life.
Well I think that the song was recorded like a youtube cover, quickly and on a whim, so I'm not going to be too harsh on his singing, but just happy that he tried enough to learn the words, even if they are pronounced wrong.

"Your tongue is twisted, your eyes are slit." I think it's obvious.

that was the worst cover ever. the vocals are horrible, especially if you've ever heard the original.

Even with reduced posting I can still beat you to some posts!
I don't know any of BoA's Japanese stuff. I only know some of her Korean works. I'm not too impressed.

HOOOOOLY SHIT
I TOTALLY just realized what that lyric means! Never related the "your eyes are slit" to the "half-japanese girls" line in El Scorcho. I always thought your eyes are slit meant she got punched and her eye swelled shut so they had to cut it (ala Rocky) =P But now it all makes sense! I'm through the looking glass, people. Thanx Maou! :lol;
