@matty23211 Right after the end of world war 2, all japanese schools by law had to have romaji classes (i'm not sure they call it that). Every person who went to school in japan since the end of WWII didn't necessarily learn full english but they all know how to write kanji in roman letters and they all know at least a few popular english tourists phrases such as "thank you." and "you're welcome" etc
This actually wouldn't be the point where Ranka sing karaoke. This is where Ranka and Sheryl sing to Alto in the Formo mall just before Sheryl goes into a fit of coughing.
Formo is the name of the public mall that Ranka Lee sings this as a kareoke song for the first time, is spotted by a talent scout, and launches her music career in Macross Frontier.
There are other versions of this song, so the Formo name is used to identify this version.
Great song, Epic Anime!!! Macross 4 ever!!!

Stupid question! Why do they use English in their songs? wouldn't that confuse the Japanese?
