  • Two words... ... Very awful!

  • one word ....AWFUL

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­h omg stop sing this is terrible it's giving chills

  • dont do any more do doddy

  • I kind of like their singing, though the song doesn't sound like Sukiyaki, but gospel. If they get trained and sophisticated, they will be very good impressive singers.

    And maybe you should have described their song as "English gospel version", as this is not what you expect to see when you search for "Sukiyaki (English version)".

    Anyway, they sing much better than most of us Japanese.^^ (I'm Japanese.)

  • This video reminds me from the movie Rush Hour II when the Asian guy was singing an awful version of Michael jackson's "Dont stop till you get enough" and ChrisTucker was saying,,, BOOOOOO "The Man is Destroying a Classic! LOL!! Pratice u2, get some soul in your vocals feel dat ish! Good Luck!

  • If this is singing then I forgotten how to, As someone said, bloody atrocious

  • And kids this is an important lesson so listen. This the best way to ruin a beautiful song!!!

  • sorry not good enough have do try again best wish

  • I couldn't "sway my body" to this like the original, but nice job anyway.

  • sorry good try but totally missed the soul of the song when u decided to skip and transform both the highest pitch n the lowest pitch of the song.

    u guys lost the touch of it.

  • Total mutilation of a very beautiful song that should never have been converted into English.

  • Junk.

  • This is acapella. Isn't too bad. 

  • NOT GOOD at all! Better try something else people! Thanks for the "try".....a great song done better by others!!!!!!! thanks anyways.....

  • Chinos! Sounds better in spanish by Selena Q.

  • Their is no deubt this couple has talent - but the quality of the recording does not do them justice - please re do it -

  • just dreadful... why post it? the 'english' lyrics aren't even correct.Insulting to Kyu's memory.

    Embarrassingly bad.

  • is very bad...bad....terrible

  • NOOOOO NOOOOOOO MOREEEEEE

    好きでわりません

    ESSSSS HORRIBLEEEE ESTA VERSION .... NOOOOO POR FAVOR NOOOO 

  • ahhhhhhh!.. my freaking ears. off key and all out of sync and wrong order of the lyrics... horrible.

  • This video is an insult to Kyu's memory!

  • terrible.....

  • Good try, I like it.

  • is this being sung in black japanese ? 

  • Used to have Asians living downstairs from me...they do like their open mic....they do!

  • how come all these versions of this in on here but the REAL song isnt?

  • japanese version is as well as english version,

    but I like japanese version,becose I'm Japanese :D

  • Good job.

  • Actually these are NOT the real English from Japanese translation for this song. Somebody took the melody and rewrote the words.

    I don't seem to be able to hotlink to the site where I read this.

    the usual 3 Ws,Japanorame then dot com.

    then kyuchan Hyper Text Markup Language (abbreviation) .# lyric

  • Beautiful song!!!!!

  • need more practice... it doesn't sounds good...

  • Hey guys, don't let the haters steal your joy. Their ears are used to professionals who recorded songs with the latest gear in studio. You sang from your heart...maybe the performance wasn't absolutely stellar, but it was VERY good and no doubt a better job than the morons who throw stones. These are the same people who sit on their butts, watch TV football, and yell at the players like THEY COULD HAVE DONE BETTER.! :-)

  • You're all probably very bad singers or you're some of the dicks who post their cover songs on youtube trying to get someone to actually pay attention to you.

    Good job duet.

  • Comment removed

  • The real version is by 4PM, & no it does not sound better in Japanese

  • not soo good

  • Ouch - this is ...um...really bad. REALLY bad. Sorry.

  • those aren't the words at all

  • no offense but u guys killed the song

  • Sounds like somebody stepped on the cat's tail!

  • It won't quite do.

  • i gotta say, your voices are good but you totally ruined the song i meant as in the notes don't match

  • no its not kyu sakamoto,,, go back home

  • ok u ppl just over didit and ruined it im sorrying im a pretty bad singer but even i can do better than that

  • Que cosa más terrible. Lástima que no utilicen sus atributos de voz para destrozar canciones en su propio lenguaje.

    HORRRIBLE

    TERRIFIC.

    ESPANTOSA INTERPRETACIÓN.

  • Mr. Sakamoto will be turning in his grave,this is bloody awful Give up sining and go back to what ever you were doing before,or better sill audition for the X-Factor,you'd go far.

  • @ Englishsandy- lmao!!! (((love your comment)))

  • Thanks for the reply CodyYaj.I adore this song and it is a total disgrace to Mr.Sakamoto's name.The mans was superb so tslented and so underated.R.I.P. Mr. Sakamoto.

  • The only thing these lyrics and the original song have in common is the music. These lyrics don't translate to the Japanese version at all.

  • XONG! You need to delete this video!

  • こりゃちとキビしいな、、、

  • Though I only like the original version, it's good to hear others singing this sweet song.

  • This was enjoyable, just.

    But to call it the English version of the song is wrong.

    This version has very little similarity to the original lyrics.

  • Destrozaron la cancion por completo.

  • THE BOMB LIKE TIC-TIC

  • Sorry, this is terrible.

  • @Obeijin yeah man...this is just fuck....u cant ruin this beautiful song....seriously wtf man!!@

  • I can't belive how dumb so many of the posters are having never heard of, nor bothered researching, the Taste Of Honey's version of Sukiyaki! >:(

    Kou and his sister did this song plenty well, esp considering it's a cappella and just open mic

    Mr Sakamoto would be proud of them having so much fun and entertaining those people (whom DID cheer)

  • Were these two actually ever tried for murder?

  • That's not right....

  • bad simply awful apaulling

  • the dudes voice distroyed the whole song.....damn...

  • SELENA MADE IT BETTER

  • The guy was terrible!, the girl was pretty good.

  • 82 artist have covered this song "A Taste of Honeys" Janice Marie Johnson wrote the english version. when she translated the lyrics into English, she found out that the lyrics could be interpreted in three ways: as a man on his way to his execution, someone trying to be optimistic despite life's trials, or as the story of an ended love affair. "Me being the hopeless romantic that I am," she explained, "I decided to write about a love gone bad. A Taste of Honey, was very popular in Japan.

  • This is a disgrace to Mr. Sakamoto's memory.

  • I agree totally blueberries4ever. This song is a total ##$%%%^ disgrace to Kyu Sakamoto's memory!

  • dude,

    if you really mean it..

    i have this for you...

    GO DIG A HOLE IN THE SAHARA DESERT AND STICK YOUR HEAD IN IT....

    I won't miss you.

  • Eres una reverenda hija de la gran puta, racista y engreida, Estadounidense tenias que ser para creerte mas que los demas. No sigo porque si no voy a perder los estribos y me voy a arrepentir de lo que ponga porque seria constitutivo de delito.

  • I like it better when Trish Thuy Trang sings it.

  • me 2

  • People looooves to trash music!!!

    What a waste of my time!!!!

  • not even close to even the original translation.this is it partial: '' i look up as i walk so that the tears wont fall. remembering those spring days but now im all alone this night

  • The translated words aren't used in the English version of Kyu Sakamoto's. It's completely different lyrics haha

  • ok... 6.8 / 10 the way he said "haunting"...man...it woz like all fuked up... n the end part dragged on 4 like....fuken ages...i know.....im a sad kunt leavin h8 mail on YT....blow me!!!

  • There nothing like the japanese lyrics. The original talks about him walking with his head upwards through the different seasons. the original title was "Ue O Muite Aruko" which means "i look up when i walk". And the melody you 2 are singing is only vaguely similar to Kyu's song. Change the name of the vid. Not on that

  • The hell is this?

    I sing this song evertime I do karaoke in Japan, the japanese version.

    the lyrics In Japanese are nothing like this AT ALL.

    Dont shit on classics!!!!! ダメ!!馬鹿!!!!!!

  • actually this is trish thuy trang version so its different

  • Ryguy786: I agree wholeheartedly with you. I've never understood why artists attempt to re-make classics, be they a film or a song. What in the hell could possibly be added to a work that is already perfect? To do so is nothing more or less than blasphemy.

  • I like it, just slow

  • So amazing....god bless you

  • It was good, just a bit too slow and the translation isn't too accurate.

  • Not bad but i do agree with a few others. it is better in japanese...not bad at all. They need at least the back round music. then it would be pretty good. let me know if they do it with the music. thanks

  • is this the one that trish thuy trang wrote?

  • you're wishing that trish had the talent to have written this song. it is written by rokusuke ei and hachidai nakamura and sanged by kyu sakamoto in 1961.

  • The funny thing, is that they didn't write the English one. In fact, the English version's lyrics are nothing like the Japanese song's translation.

  • muy bien

  • No offense, but it sounds better in Japanese...

  • it loses in the translation...thanks for the post..

  • KYU SAKAMOTO!!!!!!!!!!

  • all the comments are too childish!

    Noneky!

  • Please at least practice before you sing and post on here. You two have butchered Sakamoto's song.

  • Good grief. Trying to put the awful Mariah Carey touch to it. And the bloke singing flat. A total screw up!

  • LOL!

    This absolutly SUCKED!!!

  • 577666 I beg to differ, they sound great.

  • great song i love the japanese version.but i can apretiate it better now i know what hes saying in english.i love the japanese culture.

  • is not the same lyrics

  • The lyrics are correct, juguete14 - listen to Kyu's English version. The problem is that these are just awful singers........

  • You have the right to comment.

    I would say this.

    At least they tried.

    The singers DO have promise.

    Just give 'em a go!

  • Must be all your friend's comments. This is really rank amateur/beginner. You lose the melody and tune. How the hell can people clap to this song? Welcome to the back-slapping mutual appreciation society.

  • why the hell would you comment it

  • And your stella singing career consists of?

    Point us to the clips you have put up so we can critique them.

  • It is not a case of what others put on to YouTube. You put yours on so expect comments. It is a very poor performance: the guy has a monotone and you only harmonise on about one note. Seriously take a look at yourselves and perform it away from your social circle - see what response you get then.

  • Ah ScooterZn, it's criticise, not critique - you pretentious twat.

    How much any other person that's commented about them has posted themselves is academic - these are just two awful singers, who should expect criticism for offering such rubbish as song. The adverse comments are about their bad voices, not their right to post. Perhaps, out of interest, you could point us to some of you vocal masterpieces, so we can compare........

  • wow! great acapella!!!

  • WOot!! Im glad im related to them hahaha

  • I saw you perform another version on YouTube. Again, you've done a great job. Your voices blend so beautifully. Love it!

  • lovely

  • wows. i love it.. u guys are great
