Lisa Ono-Country Roads Take Me Home

[YamachanUS]

Wow great voice.

[naturalbluejazz]

in 100 years, no one will know how the song by JD sounded, and he would be full of tears now if he could hear this beautiful piece, in 100 years a song is a song is a song, there are no genres, just melody and lyrics

[19351079]

she is JP

[Jacobhoward56]

HOrrible gook attempting an american song.

[thekingofmoney2000]

@Jacobhoward56 She's from Brazil...of Japanese decent...

[outcastact21]

@Jacobhoward56 and ur a horrible asshole attempting to sound smart

[KatBrydon]

I love this... Lisa's take is more Jazz than Country... ! A great expression of a beautiful song...

[hanabecky]

おかえりなさい。　あなた：）

無事に帰ってきてくれてありがとう☆

[utubmania2009]

I like many of her songs, but this one. She ruins one hell of the great country song by John Denver.

[johnnyV61980]

The voice is beautiful, but the accords too out scheme. In the original song the strength of the music country resides, simple and stupendous accords. Good the singer but the accords no.....

[9600dc]

It's sad that more people in Japan/China/Taiwan...etc. have heard of West Virginia than the entirety of the United States unless you live in or close to WV

[Twilightbun]

Isn't this the same melody as Country Road from the japanese anime, Whisper of the Heart?

[flyby7a]

[jt21419]

She has the most silky voice imaginable. My favourite song by her is "Salade de fruits" ("水果色拉").

I think Lisa Ono is Japanese + Brazilian. Her Brazilian accent is that of a native. She's good at languages. Her accent is hardly noticeable in English or French (at least when she sings).

[danny53733]

she has a heavenly voice tugs on my heart strings

[welcometourf]

meh, it's just disorienting seeing an asian sing about west virginia

[iiLoveCR]

Beautiful :)

[Soupdion]

Hate the jazzy version of it ... Plus her name's Ono ... If she's related to Yoko Ono ... then it's bad.

[hbread]

Is Lisa Ono brazilian? She has an accent and she play guitar with rhythm of bossa nova.

[mmchida]

@hbread Yeah. She is brazilian.

[EdmundKhh]

Beautiful and Awesome voice.Cheers

[ThomasMelberStgt]

Well, somewhat different ... but nice ;)

[greenplanetification]

It sounds Jazzy and cool so appreciate its difference and the video is sweet.

[meowdragon]

beautiful, great cover. but please its spelled "road"

[denisegaebler]

it sound´s good ^^ for a asian she has a really good voice I think

[lSubmarinerl]

real bull shit XD

i'm serious

[Freediv291]

She's totally hot.

[kutari]

谢谢啊！ this is really good! 她是日本人对不对？ she sings very well!

[schmuck066]

you made it ur own and that says alot.....keep up the good work.....

[Hooiney]

This song is from the album Jambalaya - Bossa Americana

American songs with a brasilian style

[BunnyRabbitD]

Good, but too mellow for my taste. It lacks that grit and "americana" that the lyrics call for.

[IntricationZ]

@BunnyRabbitD maybe the country road in this version isn't from america?

[tonywsmith2]

@BunnyRabbitD

If the grit you're alluding to has anything to do with persecuting

cows and chickens and unwinding by shooting defenseless and

perfectly innocent deer on the week-ends, the main order of

business in rural America, it seems, besides growing food mostly to

feed animal agriculture and meat production---forget it, I'd sooner

turn to UFC. Why don't you just cool the flatulence, BunnyRabbit,

be good to your ears, and listen to the music. It's lovely. So is she.

[BunnyRabbitD]

@tonywsmith2 Chill out dude, I'm as entitled to my opinion as you are yours. I never said I didn't like the song, but I prefer the original for its energy &, yeah, grit. Not grit as in hunting, but just the vibe that comes from certain instruments & the tone of voice used. To me, it should sound a bit rougher & not so smooth, b/c thats what I think when I imagine the Blue Ridge Mountains & Shenandoah River. I never meant to "troll" or "hate", so there is seriously no reason to get offended .

[tonywsmith2]

@BunnyRabbitD

Well said, BunnyRabbit.

[tonywsmith2]

@BunnyRabbitD

By the way, BunnyRabbit, I can tell you, from the bottom of my vegetarian heart,

I love rabbits, and indeed all animals. Believe me, "animal'" is not a compliment I bestow on people lightly. But you sound like a cool one. Thanks for putting me in my place---is it baby, or pal---I needed that.

[MichaelnChristine]

Weak

[NEKOJIJI09]

Wow! It super! (^^)

[blacksheepz]

lol @ the -ve comments, so shallow thinking.. dun even know wat is improvisation and cover

[curszondax]

another great arrangement of an old classic.

[daemonsy]

Why do people always like to hate so much?

If you don't like the song, just navigate away. You leave a comment because you want to make a point about how sucky it is and you feel that its dumb that it has such high ratings.

But no one really cares about what you think. We just wanna enjoy the song.

Cheers.

[mistahazinboii]

For those who does not like her singing, GROW UP!! I bet you can't even sing. You bastards.

[slowfoodwawa]

Who does not know that this is a cover, should not really listen to music.

Her voice is interesting and her version of it, isn't that bad. I have heard a basket full of versions which were nothing compared to this one.

So listen and enjoy, or don't enjoy and go away.

[nagzul]

Stop hatng. She get's to sing it her way. The son is to make your own. She's cot a moresoothing country river side sound.

[112Wv]

Sounds like shit makes fun of west virginia she has no business singin a song abount a place she has never been I bet she dont know what half of this stuff is I bet she thinks moonshine is light from the moon (it'd probaly kill her if she took a drink ) ugly jap ruined my favorite song

[VickyThapa]

hey you are miles away from the track......check the original song again and compare it !!!!!!

[YoRocky3]

her voice is alright. her accent is funny. but she destroyed a great song.

[Gangstabill84]

Yes sevastigio she destroyed this song!!

And to you who named this clip, it spells roads, not rodes

[sevastigio]

DAMN she destroyed a great song. POOR !

[jcisbell]

@sevastigio I realize it's quite different than J.D. BUT if you listen to her Brazilian tunes, you'd understand where she's coming from. She also sings in French.

[Shrikeswind]

I like her version, but on a personal note, I'd like to say I could have told it was a cover even if I'd never heard the original (though I have.) It just doesn't have the passion the lyrics demand. No matter how good you are (and she's good,) you just can't do this song without passion.

[DontSurpriseme]

NICE VOICE GREATE

[loboblanco65]

duerme a las ovejas

[googleyueroy]

thx for sharing

u from HK?

[r123456988]

[relationship223]

@r123456988

[gotony5614]

@googleyueroy japan?!

[googleyueroy]

@gotony5614

nope HK

[ll40808]

so Comfortable......

[112Wv]

what I say ant shit

[112Wv]

you city jokers thank yall are very funny useing thot ol "F" word dont you

[MSCANCERPATIENT]

excuse me, but she is Japanese-Brazilian. She was born in Brazil. Just because she is Japanese, doesn't mean she doesn't go outside of her country.

[tyrantxdotcom]

Doesn't mean she does either does it?

I'll slam my dick in a desk drawer if this bitch has been to WV

[rlinfinity]

why? cos she's jap. i admit she has an annoying voice and an ugly mug, but i think most of the resentment here is cos she's a "gook." damn racist uncultured inbred hillbillies.

[112Wv]

hey that IS our culture except for the imbred part you city bastard we wont let other cultures over take ours lik youall have it is stupid to let go on what yall let go on you cant even say merry christmas in the citys with out you getting your head bit off by these "other cultures" that is why we dont accept it here we run it out of town

[rlinfinity]

that's total BS :P ...

[rlinfinity]

of course you can say merry xmas in cities. everyone says it all the time, and everywehre u go there are a shitload of decorations... you would know that if u left that remote isolated rural shithole of urs from time to time and went and mixed with other ppl (also be a good idea to bang someone you're NOT related to by blood once in a while -- at least ur kids won't be retards then.)

[112Wv]

That crap abount us doing our relatives is bullshit none of us do that NONE. most people here are have relationships outside of family and if we did it its better than letting queers run around togrther like the city people do

[rlinfinity]

There's a bloody good documentary about your hill country fellows who copulated with their sisters, mothers and aunts -- A rather perplexing hole they had bred themselves into! It's called "WRONG TURN." Jolly good show, that. You ought to watch it, old chap.

I believe they even made sequels to the first one, and released it to theatres in technicolour, no less!

:P

But come now, let's put these silly disagreements aside and be civil for a change. Care for a crumpet and a spot of tea?

[112Wv]

Wrong Turn is 95% made up and 5% truth the people it was based on were not imbred they were all either suffers from different mental illnesses or drug users who had escaped from several different mental hospitals in the state and made a little coloney in Mcdowell county West Virginia they werent even related as the movie would have you belive they have all been caught and sent back to where the come from after they were reported for stealing copper wire off power poles during a black out

[rlinfinity]

Hogwash! Balderdash! Lies and nonsense!

Wrong Turn was a faithful and reliable documentary on the hill billies!

[112Wv]

I am not fightin with you rlinfinity anymore It is silly I have my opinion and you yours As for the tea and crumpet I Only like sweet tea and dont know what a crumpet is

[rlinfinity]

Hahahaha! I'm afraid you've been batting at a sticky wicket. I was winding you up, old boy! Of course 'Wrong Turn' is just a movie, and it's fictitious. Well, it was fun while it lasted. :)

[rlinfinity]

I was taking some for you lot for a ride because of your overt racism and baseless xenophobia. It was well deserved :)

[Bashaza]

Yes i saw that documantry , very insightful

[qscplmyhb]

LOL you speak funny XD

[rlinfinity]

:D What makes you say so, old boy?

[qscplmyhb]

:D its cool how do you do that! haha

[dance00000]

^

|

lol weird freaks. i looove this cover :) AMAZING!

[Mia072]

Yeah dumb asses !

[rlinfinity]

How can you be so sure?! Maybe she's been to West Virginia? it's not the fucking moon. all she gotta do is hop aboard a plane.

dumbasses. I wish i had 2000 feet so i could put a crapload of em in each of your asses.

[112Wv]

How ever many feet you put in my ass 10 times that is how many buckshot pellets go in yours

[112Wv]

Luckly we dont have an airport out side of charleston that can handle one of those monsters you city people ride so that keeps alot of them away from us.

[rlinfinity]

stone age much?

[dance00000]

HAHAHAHHAHAHHAHA u stupid country boy.

[112Wv]

Its great to be a country boy a city boy cant do half of the things I do

[NataliaMusen]

youre right. have tryed to get a city boy to do what my brothers can do but he failed

[kaveeta84]

And yet people have been singing about heaven and hell. There's nothing wrong with it.

[tyrantxdotcom]

true, yet no one has been their either, and I dont care about heaven and hell songs either.

Nothing wrong, but it doesn't make it any good, much less worth the bandwidth and diskspace LOL

[112Wv]

I agree with you 1,000,000% buddy couldnt have said it better myself thank you for agreeing with me as I said before

[Cory5011]

How do you she hasn't seen West Virginia? Maybe she grew up there.

[112Wv]

I back what I said Before. Some one Jumps off the new river gorge bridge ar goes to a business meeting in charleston that does not mean that they saw our way of life even if she did grow up here , alot of people do that and leave as soon as they get a chance that dosent count there in no way to know unless who we are unless you are a part of our culture and see our way of life.

[XxGridsinXx]

lamer, your as naive as u speak ehs ?

[makeinhk]

so different..

i like the john denver version better than this

anyway thanks for sharing

[9774642]

Lisa?i thought Risa

[guyNbluejeans]

Nice! Very solid job!

[NEKOJIJI09]

wow... it is great.. yes.. it is natural if she sings.. she has a given voice. (^^)

[TheEirica]

it's different, but i like it anyways...the jap was obsessed with this song back then ^^p remebered of this song when i recently watched whisper of the heart, it's a good muvee ^^d

[XWAHWAH]

there is no empathy in this ... don't like it =/

[chuPOO]

so good!!! abit of an accent but thats her charm

[moonbaby1080]

i feel very good like home and heart.

[FireFaith]

Who cares what she is, either way this sounds very nice =]

[rickylauws]

I love her more than her singing.

[Lin65911]

Come on man!

She is a Japanese!!

[saporedeamore]

She is a Brazilian!

Her parents are Japaneses.

[hiodr]

john denver has reincarnated as an asian woman! oh my God! or should i say, ONO!

[MarcoAMarciano1]

Amazing! Que linda interpretação!

[thekoiponds]

[chrisportuga]

[Aprild666666]

[BirdsofJuly]

[Pwag]

West Kyoto, mountain mama, take me home!

This is sweet. She's gotta be singing phonetically *like I spell when I am drunk* but "mama" is native.

I love it.

[hbread]

Her voice is perfect!!! It's a mix with country and bossa nova.

[aBcPrincesss]

it's good but i think the original is much more better ...

[ProudBeATukker]
