hihi

Kinda cool. Segunda!
Japanese people never smile. I can fix that.
rad????????? yeah……… not so much
Nope, I don't like it. I like the beat, but not the video. Makes me think of doing ketamine.
Different!
AMY could do it!!!! Amy don't die Amy don't die!!!!!!!!!!!!
PUT SOME DUFFY ON HERE, THE SONG WARWICK AVE! I SENT IT TO YOU YOU FUCKTARD!
Very rad? Are you serious? I'd say very CRAP!
His Japanese is SO bad that didn't even notice he was singing Japanese the first time I heard it…
Re: Firn –
Thats EXACTLY what I was thinking when I listened to the first 30 secs of crap…
creepy video, but I like the different language factor. America needs to wake up to music from other parts of the world besides Europe. There are kick ass artists from almost every continent
Sorry, Leah dizon is an American artist & Model who sings in Japan/Japanese-She is better than this guy. Look up her songs Koi Shiyou, Under The Same Sky, Koi Shiyou etc….
i am married to a japanese person, speak japanese and live in japan. his pronunciation is awful. it's a crap song and 1/2 english at that. and to perez, it's "Modorenai" not "Modereni".
oh, please stop him murmuring now!
what an awful japanese, i can't hear any single word, though im a japanese.
if you want to hear american singer singing j-pop, you must hear Scott Murphy, who is a former member of Allister from chicago!!!
his japanese is sooooo good, though he's living in us as usual.
I don't like. I'm even a fan of j-pop and j-rock so i'll stick with my dir en grey orange range, yui, and the others.
He can't pronounce Japanese with the right accent. Awful.
cool i seriously love it, the video is amazing too
This makes me want to kill my Japanese side…
I'm sorry but he should just give up,I can barely understand a word he's saying.
The music itself is so westernized that it can't even be considered as Japanese pop.
either my japanese sucks or his japanese has a very heavy accent…couldn't even tell it was japanese and i can usually diferentiate most of the east asian languages.
Most J-Pop fans would hate this, and with good reason. It's awful.
Um, that was awful.
Wow, obviously he doesn't speak a word of japanese… that was SO BAD. Nothing about this is "J-pop style", Perez.
his pronunciation is awful.
Does it bother anyone that music belongs to Ace Of Base, or no one here is old enough to know?
I've spent four years studying to receive my bachelors in Japanese Modern Language and Literature and I must say, HIS JAPANESE SUCKS! I didn't even know he was singing in Japanese in the beginning. He sings it like a foreigner. The least he could do is TRY to imitate their speech patterns. As a white girl that is forever struggling to master the language, this shit makes my ears bleed.
was that a boob?
This song is boring.
Hot video, very artistic and well done. JAB is an international talent!
I think its awesome.. some people need to appreciate artists doing something different and i respect this artist and song
this sucks. I speak japanese and you have no idea what hes saying.
Man, his Japanese is bad… kinda embarrassing.
You'd think for having a whole music video he'd actually have the language skills to back it up… (or at least SOUND like he can speak it!)
The Japanese pronounciation is crap, but the song and video is cool in its own way.
Great song, Unique style, JAB rocks, very artistic and open for personal interpretation, i like it, makes you think. Unlimited potetial
Re: XOXO From* LV – Please DON'T do a feature on Leah, the only good thing to come from her was 'Love Paradox' and that was a fluke.
i don't know why you keep promoting these nobodies… i think you must really really need that xtra cash!
i worked on this video shoot….they had so much awesome visuals to work with and they totally fucked it over in editing…too bad. but the song does kinda sux…too bad.
This shit fucking sucks ass. Just ’cause he is atempting to sing in Japanese does not make this J-pop, Perez. Jesus Christ.
