Be myself - Megumi Nakajima

[ThaowieNguyen]

like if your watching this in 2012 !!!

[shadysgurl1614]

I taught myself this dance...ima try it for the talent show this year.

[AzulEnergy]

While I do think this is MUCH better than the Gumi version as a Vocaloid fan I'm a bit offended.

" Most vocaloid fans are anime addicts"

Nope.avi I barely watch anime and could care less what a vocaloid looks like and prefer most english vocaloids.

" Music made by a computer is easy"

laughingwhores.jpg This must be why there are millions of singers around the world and compared to that only a few people who use vocaloid.

[x2xWhaaax7x]

i can totally hear gumi X3

[mitchell042194]

Her dancing is so... weird.

[fix24311]

this video totally didn't do justice to megumi nakajima's song...i totally understand if this is the controversy video stated on wikipedia.

BTW,she's half filipino,i find it awkward she pronounce english words like japanese instead proper english,huhuhu... =P

[Tiercel5]

@fix24311 - the reason behind that is she lived in Japan which is why she would pronounce it in Japanese accent. I've had some relatives who also lived in other countries for most of their lives and noticed the same thing so it's not just her.

As for the dance itself, it was actually alright.

[yakurimoe]

@fix24311 I agree, but was the backlash because the video wasn't a proper MV or for something else?

[fix24311]

@yakurimoe because it wasn't proper MV i think

[zara927]

cute!

[TheNueiz]

I'm so addicted to this song, I can't stop watching this video... or was it the perfect synchronization between the dancer and the song? :3

[tsukimorihinokahoko1]

i really like her and her outfit but the stockings and shoes does not fit the dress much...

[supernova874]

AMAZING :)

[LeonSK96]

Srsly, why do people preffer girls with big tits, sexy bodies, a big ass instead of a cute girl like this :3 the world sucks!

[KamenRiderNecro]

@LeonSK96 I agree--I like Nakajima-san just fine, myself. She is adorable! 

[Ikkitsuki09]

i like megumi nakajima's voice better then may'n cause here voice is calm and smooth while may'n is powerful voice but i think there both good

[macross25]

I never get bored of this song, come to the USA and tour Megumi!!! 

[scentedmarkers1243]

your......... AMAZING! :3

[MarleHunter85]

What Be Myself song is telling? Example I know, that Just Be Friends tells people's broken love and Bad Apple tells, that girl is tired her life, and she is not sure if she is even truly alive, or if everything she sees is just a dream. (sorry my bad english! ^^;)

[kpopgiiirl]

@MarleHunter85 Basically Be Myself is just saying She's herself and she wants to share her happiness to the one she loves

[KamenRiderNecro]

Megumi is so adorable and cute and enthusiastic! Her style is totally different than May'n, and I appreciate them both. May'n has a much more dramatic and passionate vocal style wheres Megumi cultivates more a girl next door/enthusiastic nerd girl style that is more approachable, for want of a better word. Both are just as good as the other and both are adorable. That is all.

[kawazoe0917]

ニコ動で消えてたからこっちでみれてよかった～



[Eclipsa00]

Megumi is MEGPOID Gumi's voice acter

[anime8explode]

I thought that was a little kid, tell it zoomed up on her face. she looks so young!

[cattoy37]

I don't like the lighting. The shadows make her look blurry and it hurts my eyes. I wish they had used more diffuse lighting or a different backdrop. Otherwise, awesome.

[Ikkitsuki09]

@cattoy37 yeah me too they maybe they are low budget? but the song is good

[gigaslave]

Her outfit reminds me of the female player character in Pokemon Diamond/Pearl. Even the hat is there :D

Megumi Nakajima is definitely a cute idol.

[YandereOfTheFuture]

@gigaslave Is that Dawn? The one with the Piplup pokemon??

[gigaslave]

@YandereOfTheFuture

You could say that, yes.

[Tiercel5]

@gigaslave - let me try, it's Platinum right?

[6pakilla]

Ranka! .. I love how i'm all about Megumi and May'n bcuz of Macross.. I just can't help but smile when I watch this video. Megumi you're awesome! ^^

[Kelliapi1]

This is the same person who voices for Gumi :) Their voices are very close to each other (Because you know, some Vocaloids sound very different from their voicers). I love her boots and skirt in this video!

[Ikkitsuki09]

@Kelliapi1 gumi?

[Hermioneee147]

@Ikkitsuki09 This is the singer who lent her voice to create Gumi.

[SakuraPomeranian]

I LOVE HER SKIRT

[nirvanawar999]

megumi hermosaaaaaaaa te amooooooooooo !!!!!!!

[XalonewaitingKairiX]

Is it true she is half filipino and half japanese?!;O

'Cause thats cool!^-^ I'm half filipino ;D But the other half isnt japanese for me D'X

and LMAO! I'm impressed that she even danced throughout the ENTIRE song.I would've been either tired, or ran out of moves x'D

[rubyjuly94]

There's Vocaloid covers to this song too!! ;D

[AsukaKazama1008]

She's HALF FILIPINA!!!!! YEYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! She's a Kababayan!!!!!!! ^_^ Proud of ya, Nakajima-san! My dreams and hopes of a female Pinay Vocaloid seiyuu came true!!! And great voice BTW!!!

[cheesesmiles]

I love the ways she's dress. In america that would be considered weird.

but no in japan!

LOVE THE SONG AND LYRICS! shes so adorable >_<

[lexilovesjacobblack]

@cheesesmiles

thats why cosplay is so awesome! (i dont cosplay, but i think its cool! ^ -- ^)

[cheesesmiles]

@lexilovesjacobblack haha same here! i'd much rather take pic with cosplayers than cosplay my self : D

[chopgr]

She is great! Cheers from Greece!

[MiakaYuki123]

I love this song!!!

[AnimeFreaqiiYuukii]

Amazing *-* !

[1MaddieChan1]

I think I'm blinded.... (In a good way) I don't think I've ever seen a human do that dance so good..... Great job~~~ I would rate 5 stars if youtube hasn't changed, but i still favorited this *-*

[Megacbc]

Very interesting to see this version. She is quite good at both dancing and singing from what I see in this vid.

[468255]

U IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!  vocaloids r voice synthesizers NOT PEOPLE FROM ANIMES!!!!!!!!! they dont have voice actors or anything either! they are PROGRAMS!!! GRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!

[33Mabinogi33]

@468255 Well, the vocaloids got their voices from real people each of the vocaloids have their own "character" so the I think the best term people can come up with is voice actor ( I think some crazy fans are trying to make an anime though... -_-;)

[inucakes]

@468255 There voices have to come from somewhere -_-

And there is no needs to call someone a idiot. Your the idiot your self.

There voices come from REAL PEOPLE . Megumi is the voice of Megpoid ( Gumi )

So I suggest you shut your mouth before your PWNED again.

[468255]

@inucakes yeah i learned this so uhhh stuff o3o

[MagickDog]

@468255 lol stupid(:

[arich95]

Awesome video!!! luv it

[FUYOUBOHBO]

中島愛（めぐみ）がBe MYSELFを踊ってみた

[90animeluver]

MEGUMI IS SO AWSUMM!!

did u kno she is half Filipino half Japanese? XDD

[Megamoniemoon]

SHES THE VOICE ACTOR OF GUMI? O,O *squealish voice*

[SangoRulez]

Wow does she sound like Gumi!!! Its awesome!!!

[KawaiiKikio]

duhh, Megumi dubbed Megpoid's voice o_o;

[SangoRulez]

I know that but it surprised me how much she actually sounds like Gumi because the girl who voices Luka doesn't entirely sound like Luka.

[KawaiiKikio]

oh lolz =P

[HottieGal80]

Aw

1:18 and 1:20

CUTE!

[XxCRay0NxX]

1:02-1:11 is wierd

[AmutoFan4Eva]

OMG!!! I want her skirt and top!! SO CUTE :O

[NKTLJP]

I Love This Song ♥ ____♥

Her Voice is sooooo Beautiful ^o^

II can´t more say ^o^

[GintoriOdessa]

She's so cute. I love this song.

[Chikumachan]

Okay, I'm starting to have hat envy.

*wants her hat*

XD!

[Shana2691]

HI KEN!!!!! I luffles you ^-^

[KawaiiNeko19]

oh yeah..the Megpoid gumi <3

[YingofDarkness]

Has anyone besides me noticed that Sheryl and Ranka's seiyus really fit there characters concert wise. Like all of the things i see with May'n are filled with effects and stuff just like Sheryl's always are but Ranka and Megumi always have these cute dances and hardly any effects (although i think that may be low-budgeting on Megumi's end) there concerts are natural

[dtjiang]

@YingofDarkness

i think its the macross frontier merchandise that also make her famous. The Ranka role fits her perfectly and now its up to her to get rid of that "image"eventually. (not badly meant) I still love to see her like this ;)

[YingofDarkness]

@dtjiang Macross Frontier is what kick started both of there careers though. May'n was already singing yeah but she wasn't famous or even that well known. I think she's already started doing that with her "I Love You" album but it'll be difficult since she doesn't have anything else except Macross F as a sort of backdrop whereas May'n did. These dances are so cute ;3

[dtjiang]

@YingofDarkness

ye wonder how her concerts went in taipei and the upcoming one in HK.

i got the galaxy final and cant stop watching it lol

[sexytool22]

@YingofDarkness Strange thing about that..... nobody really liked megumi/ranka to begin with. It was only recently that she won Seiyuu of the Year

[8UP1977]

@YingofDarkness Megumi IS Ranka, how they got into the spotlight is identical. 

[ItsJaqBish]

Shes beautifuls! Love her voice too <3

[KaoroUndKumiko]

I can dance it too :'D

[tripperdan99]

Megumi Nakajima is so talented and CUTE! I sure hope she does more seiyū in anime. It's worth watching Macross Frontier to see her again (And Sheryl Nome of course!!). Really neat to see someone so nice and refreshing on the scene.

[jedkun3456]

For some reason, I can't stop thinking that it's Ranka singing this song, and that Ranka voices NakaMegs, rather than the other way around.

[FukariLen]

oh guy!! i love too much this song and megumi

she is the best >v0

[YaNaYIshIrOKaZe]

she is so Ranka ...

Love her dancing and her angelic Voice <3

[Crion629]

Yep. I only hear Ranka when I hear her songs. Also, her dancing is just like Ranka's too.

[Inubaby12]

<3 it AWESOME SONG OH YEAH woo be myself kono ashno dreamy why hika shuno oh sa lalalalalalalalala oh yeah lalalalalalala whata shino yo LOL

[ChocoCakeful]

Remember people, not every Japanese song is /from/ Vocaloid XP

[8UP1977]

Except now Megumi Nakajima IS a vocaloid.

[ChocoCakeful]

True, true XD

[Nutjob1230]

@ChocoCakeful not not every song, but a fair number of the best

[EmeraldKintobor]

@ChocoCakeful Agreed. Over half the time, it's the other way around.

[Ikkitsuki09]

@ChocoCakeful most people who listen to vocoloid are anime addicts

[LeonSK96]

@Ikkitsuki09 Are pussies... Music made by a computer... everyone can do that. Real music isn't made by computers >=)

[MileyCyrusFanPus]

She dance on her way:D

That's good!!

And she have her own style!

[OokamiDemon12]

thank you for putting this up! i want to learn this dance but the vid i had was hard to follow. ^-^ you are my hero!

[ChrisTehGamer]

I <3

[AMsenshiMoony]

Her voice is so beautiful ♥

[Killerpancakelol]

I love her voice!

[pingy67]

Wow.... awesssommme!

[winterwof]

nice dance!

nice song!

nice dressing!

love her!

[ace28]

Oh wow. I LOL'd at the people complaining about something that wasn't even meant for them, audience-wise.

[AliciaJewel]

Does anybody know where to find the romaji lyrics for this song? It's SO cute!

[SoggyCraackers]

It's true xDD

[Michishibiku]

Word. x_x

[grimeyes]

BOTH the song and dance came from ORIGINALLY came from Megumi Nakajima. People just used it in vocaloid as well as mikumikudance. Please stop asking whether this is really her song. Use wikipedia.

[GuacamoleKun]

Woah, wait, what? Is that the vocaloid version, or real singing? Because it sounds damned real. No, it can't be, there was a "su" near the end that was sort of breathy. I'll be REALLY impressed if I'm wrong.

[Suzzinee]

That's Megumi REAL singing. Rofl .xD

[GuacamoleKun]

Oh dear. Then I guess what I said is a bit insulting. XD;;;;;;;;

[SD2105]

To everyone saying it's not her singing:

The song is Be MYSELF by Nakajima Megumi; the girl dancing in the video is Nakajima Megumi.

[suzette18]

lol um....not the best of dancers and apparently this isn't her singing? but i do like the voice of whoever is singing just not the dancing

[derere103]

Hey idiot guess what MEGUMI NAKAJIMA IS DOING BOTH!

[AstrusAngelus]

I love that song, and that dance. She's cute!

[VueiyVisarelli]

Gosh, that was cute, and that vocaloid sounds, well, real...which is somewhat creepy, but never mind that now...

[RikkuKirasagi]

From far away, Megumi looks like my cousin O.O

[lightnebula]

anyone no where i can find the lyrics to this song?

also she rox at dancin

[PrincessJoycie]

I do . Do you need it ?

[lightnebula]

yes plz ^^ hehe thnx

[bookaddict209]

Gumi, the vocaloid by crypton she voiced, sang this song. it didn't sound any different, and i think that's funny cause she's sposed to be a robot

[gregwd1974]

That was so adorable!!!

What a cutie : )

Very happy,positive little lady,Megumi is.

got a little crush on her now. lol

[melchior00625]

Uh, okay, let's can the Simon Cowell commentary, Ippus. Surely a professional dance/song critic has better things to do than post inflammatory comments on a Youtube clip.

[bumblebeewow]

its exactly like the dance e.o :O

[bumblebeewow]

VERY GOOD !!! i can not dance like that

[hinatacutie123]

can have some lyrics in romaji plz?!

[hinatacutie123]

true

[Rand0mCherryBlossom]

First, how is it ironic?

Next, some people have different tastes in clothes and some people like the outfit... It's okay if you don't just respect other people's opinions please.

I think her singing is nice, no matter how "dull" the song may be, and so I enjoy that. The dance is there to make it more fun. :) People in Japan like to make dances to go along with their songs sometimes.

I'm just voicing my opinion, that's all. :3

[ragnarokvanguard]

well u'r right ^^;

The company that release Megpoid (Megumi Nakajima's Vocaloid Character) will be Internet Co.

Confirmed after checking with wikipedia

Thx t12111 :)

[TomatoSpud5]

PHWA O_O That outfit is adooorable

[kkard]

megumi is cute and everything buuuut i prefer minka lee for "be myself" ;3

[VoidDragon]

minka lee?

[senseiokamisama]

Talk about LOW budget!!!

Great song and she's kawaii as a button, but was this promo video all they could afford to make for her???

Lobo.

[mikeabundo]

That's the point. ;)

[Carlos2012Ms]

Cute as she can be.

Excellent!

[ragnarokvanguard]

Cute ^_^

I think Megumi might be a rising star at the moment and her songs from the Macross Frontier are all nice. Oh and she also being offered to become the 2nd Idol to voice the Vocaloid program from Crypton after Gackt.

[pingchow13000]

She accepted ;D

[TheEmptypot]

Kyaaah! I can't wait; I love her voice!

[Hariswish15]

Awesomeness XD

[MickeyTheMoogle]

Wow, this brightened my day. =]

[kite0impulse]

She's so damn cute that i nearly passed out...

[shadydavy]

eyes and cheeks are pinay, nose are japanese hehe, nice mix.

[KujakuuMai]

She's SO CUTE~!!

Oh, she's part-Filipina? No wonder there was something about her that was telling me that she isn't full-Japanese XDD I'm mostly Filipina, and a tad bit Chinese and Castilian XDD

[shadydavy]

Ah no wonder why she is better looking than May'n

[mintels]

she more japanese than she is filipina

[chime412]

is this a real megumi nakajima?? O_O sorry for say this.. i think some fans wanna follow her dance m(_ _)m

[ZO6]

that is her.

there are other video of her singing the song

[inukagfan99]

O_O COOL! so she was born of a japanese father, and filipina mother.. XD ^^ thats so cool ^^ im full flip xD i've never thought she was half! O_O

[SHEMELE]

just look at her nose ^^

[NinjaJay6]

She's also Japanese incase you forgot =D

[SHEMELE]

yeah and thats the good part ^^

[SHEMELE]

yeah we filipinos kick ass ^^

[hentaiyarodes]

[raulmc20]

[SilentStars12]

Actually, yes this is it.

[raulmc20]

RAnka leee macross f Rules

[Fludbucket]

Shes so cute

[andyjay729]

Heh, she's as good a dancer as Ranka.  But I hope she does more slower ballad-type songs too.

[shampoo09]

Agreed :)

[anime4ever0miku]

GREAT VID COOOL SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO CUTEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <33333 PLZ BE MY FREIND ZERO7090 AND CUTE DANCE! lol

[Tenma94]

[elmostro64]

KAWAIIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!

[shampoo09]

Stop being mean to megumi! of course she sounds just like Ranka cos thats her natural voice!

ever thought that Ranka is her role model? i think she is gr8 and i cant wait to buy her music ^^

[DruidSayuki]

I'm sorry but if you don't like it. We respect you. But please don't ruin the days of people who just want to get energised by a quick upbeat song.

[nerdslashpimp]

While she sounds better when singing in her natural range, my head asploded regardless.

[dominichokage]

How much more cute dancing can the Universe take before it implodes into a sugary singularity...?
