@Baritone45 - In another video she says (in Japanese) that she went to Japan at the age of 15 for some high school exchange program and always wanted to come back. From that time, she began to study Japanese. She is Canadian. I think I got it right, my Japanese is not so great (I don't study, I just absorb it). :P
Hope you don't mind me telling your story Sarah. Are you still in Japan? I would not be surprised if they put you on a varaiety show.
Wow, not that I have ever been there, but you seem so ... Japanese. Your hair, your accent, your cute, silly smile and submissive demeanor. Even your last name looks Japanese, but you look European American, not Eurasian. Have you like immersed yourself in Japanese culture for years?
wow, that was very good.........i can tell it came from the heart and that is all that matters!!!!!!! i am a japaneese american, and have been speaking japanese for my whole life, and you still sound better than me....major props!!!!!!
Do you think you can record a video of just the music playing, maybe for a little bit of higher voices? I love the song, but my voice is too high to get to the low notes.. :(
Wow....I'm soo jealous of you...not just by ur hair and ur beauty buh also by ur guitar skills and voice!!! and ur guitar is nice! damn girl!! oh yea, and I'm also jealous of ur Japanese :D.....cuz I'm tryin to learn buh I suck....
Is it possible for you send/tell me what chords you used???
since when did singing in a foreign language constitute trying to be anything other than what I am? I can sing in whatever language I want, and you can't stop me :P
I think the fact that Sarah can sing in another language w/out people bashing on her accent makes her pretty skillful. Her Mandarin accent is not that bad either. She probably sings better than Cantonese speakers trying to learn Mandarin.
There's nothing wrong with appreciating another culture's language or music. BTW, national/racial pride is overrated. It annoys me when people get so worked up about defining someone ELSE's identity.
WOW! I never thought I'd hear a version so great compared to Kyu Sakamoto's... this is truly beautiful. I sent it to nearly all of my friends. I hope you keep continuing to sing!
わたしわあなたかすきです。That was great. Thanks for making my day. I watched your other videos too (sounds stalkerish, I know). I take it this is your most recent. If so, I dig the brunette color. And you pull off the bangs very well. Great voice and style! あなたわきれいです。
