"Weird Al" Yankovic - Jurashiku Park ('Jurassic Park' Japanese Version)

[barkboingfloom]

A song about giant beasts attacking humans? I'm sure the Japanese people have no interest in that. NOT!

[eurobikermcdog]

why doesn't Al sing every song in Japanese as well? I'd enjoy that!

[Tomservo3Alt]

Is that actually Al singing in Japanese? Sounds like it's him.

[Random90sKid]

0:38 "Naruto"? LMFAO

[mallomon]

O, mai, gaddo! Kono wa tottemo sugoi!

[Random90sKid]

@mallomon "Kore" - not "kono"

"Totemo" - not "tottemo"

This is why weeaboos shouldn't be allowed on YouTube.Lay off the anime,idiot.

@Random90sKid

A little too much free time on your hands?

1. I hate anime.

2. Since I was speaking of the video, and not Weird Al, "kono" is correct. Context.

3. Tottemo is a slang term (frequently in spoken, occasionally written Japanese), essentially meaning "very very" instead of just "very". In fact, the introduction of the little tsu is quite frequent to put emphasis on words.

Idiot. :)

@mallomon - I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't understand why that makes "kono" correct. (I know you're right about the "tottemo" thing, though...)

[CinderellaOsozaki]

@Random90sKid

tottemo is exaggerated and usually used by women. or transvestites. lol

totemo is the normal dictionary form.

both are correct.

[cubs2084]

Whoa. Did Al do any other Japanese covers of his own songs?

[meajur]

@cubs2084 He's been known to occationally sing a verse in Japanese in concert. Additionally he sang some of Eat It in Japanese durring a guest appearance on a Japanese show (which is posted in his YouTube channel, btw).

I just discovered that hot apple cider is particularly painful when snorted through the nose.

[TokyoNerd]

"Weird Al" Yankovic got straight A's in high-school, graduated valedictorian at 16...I'm not surprised he knows Japanese.

[666Brago]

@TokyoNerd What's so surprising about that?

[TokyoNerd]

@666Brago

Nothing.

[scottandrewhutchins]

@TokyoNerd I think the Permanent Record liner notes say he sung this phonetically.

[USBYDProductions]

should be an anime op

[Iamabrawler]

I want the lyrics at all costs! One of my friends is learning Japanese and does not particularly likes Weird Al, so I want to show her Al has made a Japanese song.

[ubasnaga]

Who would've ever guessed that Weird Al could speak Japanese?

[CESkootchy]

Suprisingly, Weird Al is actually quite popular in Japan, and has been since the Eat It days

[TWBRadio27]

It's from the Japanese album of Alapalooza.

@TWBRadio27 don't worry I can translate

[antmantrunks]
