It's really good for now but yeah, i think you need to tune her voice a bit and make it smoother... luka has a wonderful voice... and she can definitely do better than this if her voice is handled right..
omg words cannot describe how much i love her voice in this! even how she says paparazzi!! its soooooooooo aweshum!!!!!!!!!!!!! not even that, its better than aweshum!
Somehow I think the mech voice works so well with this song. How? I really don't but It's so great!!!!!!! Luka is awesome when she sings english. Miku is my fave but she can't sing english.
It's amazing to have a bilingual vocaloid. Luka's more mature and defined voice is also outstanding when it comes to versatility in songs. This is an outstanding display of Luka's english voice pack. Please... for the sake of American fans who cannot understand Japanese... release more of these... I beg of you...
lets just all remind ourselves that this is a japaneise program and english cant always be sand with japaneise characters.... but i think she's pretty good
It sounds great, but at the same time her voice kinda sounds rough, like she has a bad sore throat. Idk if that was a program issue or what. It doesn't really take away from the quality of the song, though.
@AnimeAki She -was- originally meant to have a more "husky" voice that was smoother and more mature. Probably couldnt be helped unless it was sung in a higher key ^^
@pccontroller Yes I guess you are right, but now they have a Korean vocaloid named SeeU, so if i am not mistaken there are a coupel ways to pronounce Korean symbols sometimes, SeeU is my new favorite vocaloid now, no offence to the Japanese ones. lol
I don't know, I really like Luka but these word seem sort of cut up, maybe if it flowed a little more, are they trying to give her a fake accent? Does she sound like this to Japanese people? I mean, it sounds off right?
@RisquinRusselcoff She probably sounds normal to japanese people. Its just probably that even if she has a english voice database she was made to speak english I mean yes she can but she usually only had to sing like 5 words of english in a song. So it wasnt exactly programmed to sing whole songs smoothly in english thats probably why it sounds bad.
@sweet9angel4lena Well yeah i kinda worded it weirdly. I ment to say she was ment to be able to sing someenglish. and then just read the rest of the comment.
@RisquinRusselcoff the difference between Eng and Jap is that we have letters that represent, like, 3 different sounds. Japan doesn't have an alphabet of letters, but syllables that can only be pronounced one way. That's what makes Vocaloid easy for Japanese - you only need one recording for one syllable. But with English, you need a long 'a' sound, a short 'a' sound, etc... :P Plus, the voice actress had a Jap accent, so naturally, Luka's gonna have one too. But Big Al sounds almost normal.
This song is a perfect example of subliminal indoctrination, I think it had something to do with the voice. After listening to it, the song was actually ringing in my ears. It wasn't like getting a song stuck in your head either. Crazy shit...
@nickgbruns The original Vocaloids were actually English and have 2500 voice clips (though in my opinion, you can still make a more-than-passable version using the 500 voice clips of Japanese Vocaloids). Miku is getting an English version as well which, as of last update, sounds incredibly convincing.
actually i do know that vocaloids are bilingual and all but it seems that they pronounce Japanese best compared to other languages for instance: when singing in English you can completely tell that's not really how you should pronounce a word or they have trouble (in a way) pronouncing the word properly
esoo ne escucharia mejor sii fuera en japones por que no parese la voz de luka y comoque se trava y solo en las notas largas se escucha la vos de luka como que no cacha x3
wow...music today is so fake and artificial that a voice synthesizer from another country can sing it better...that's sad... and before you argue look up a video with kesha without the electronic help she normally has(*spoiler* she sounds like fran dresher)
@lolakitty11 as much as i can't disagree with you on the artificial part, it's hardly fake. VOCALOID, auto tunes, and things like that are just 21st century instruments. it's hardly sad, it's just music taking a step forward.
Vocaloids are meant to sing Japanese words in a certain type of way so it will always be sort of odd when they sing English songs- i find that all the vocaloids (when singing in Japanese) sound extremely life like and with amazing emotion too. for example - a happy song -- Gumirical by the vocaloid Gumi :) it sounds extremely happily sung .
@TheBakaTsumi go listen to an actual song prodused by vocaloid and tell me they dont have emotions. seriously alice by miku is one of the most heartfelt and emotional songs. the reason why this song doesnt have "emotion" (although i disagree) is because some random person used the vocaloid program to make a cover
@LilMissKittyKat7277 I hope I don't sound rude, but just as you have an opinion that you want to tell the world, I do as well. I feel that I may have confused/offended people in my comment and I may have said the wrong things. What I truly think is that Vocaloids DO carry the potential to bring people to emotion. However, compared to that of a human, they're simply out-beat.
a bit more tweaking would of made it sound more better, as for real emotion its just we have real time control over our voices yet some of us sound crap when we try to sing because physical limits and lack of practice where on a computer the only limitation will always be the user, and if the user isn't willing to put in the time it will sound like shit... as for lady gaga crap singer but makes up for it in other areas, just like uffie!! infact i think vocaloid sings better than uffie :P
No, it will be some time until a computer can sing with 'real' emotion and all that (It can still happen ... might just take some time). But you can't really compare a human with a computer. Like Lady gaga and Luka, Lady gaga writes alot of her songs herself and she is an awesome performer (have seen her live, so I know) but Luka isn't even real and she does not have any 'real' talent. Although I do choose to listen to vocaloid rather than real singers. I'm just sayin', you can't compare.
To be completely honest, I love Vocaloid, but I feel that they'll never be able to reach up to humans when it comes to the emotion in singing. Sure, their songs are catchy and their voices are very well done, but they can't capture feeling. There could be a trillion Vocaloids over the next century, but they'll never be able to compare to the singing of a human.
@TheBakaTsumi Don't underestimate the power of technology... We have friggen holograms! But, yeah.. I kinda agree with you. Would be interesting if they were to make Vocaloid realistic sounding though.
@GreenSkittlesPwn LOL OMG I saw the Vocaloid concerts and I was just like "WOAH THATS SO COOL." But at the same time, I was kinda laughing 'cause, I mean, come on, you're cheering for a hologram. LOLL And I would jizz my pants if that happened. :O
@gmpitts16 I know, that's exactly my point. I feel that sometimes people over-hype Vocaloids when it comes to these kind of "covers" or "dubs." (I don't know what to call it. XD) Vocaloid versions are catchy, but usually I like the human version better because the ability of Vocaloid isn't up there with the one of a human.
@Roserietta That's one of my favorite Vocaloid songs. :D But I feel that when you're talking about emotion, you hear more of it from the actual music, not the Vocaloid singing. If you heard only Hatsune Miku singing, it wouldn't be nearly as good, at least in my opinion. I usually like listening to the Nico Nico Chorus versions of their songs. o u o
@kandykikki I never said that Vocaloid songs sucked. I'm actually a pretty hardcore Vocaloid fan. (Meh...maybe hardcore is a little too strong, but I really like a lot of their songs and I have drawn a good number of fanarts for them.) I'm just saying that I usually like to hear people like Choucho or Hanatan or whoever make their own covers of them. :)
yeah but nowadays, humans use so much edditing in their songs, they sound a lot like the vocaloids. When singing other songs, it probably would be a little harder to capture emotion.
@otakufanatic98 That's true. :O Autotune sucks! >:U But I'm talking about the people in like Nico Nico Chorus who do covers of Vocaloid songs. :) I would go gay for some of their voices LOL.
@TheBakaTsumi I disagree. Vocaloids have brought me to tears, not only because of the sad lyrics/ stories, but because of the emotion that they're somehow managed to pull out of a voice synthesizer. Even if they didn't have feeling, they're still fantastic, in the notion that they're really just a program, and in my opinion, they've beat out human singers already, multiple times.
@personwhomeatspie Everyone has their own opinion, and I respect yours. In fact, I feel that you make a really good point. :D However, I'm not saying that every single human singer out there will be better than Vocaloids. I'm just saying that the ability of a human when it comes to expanding their talent and captivating the listener with their passion is superior to that of a Vocaloid. I really do love Vocaloid. :)
@TheBakaTsumi ^ . ^; I got a little worked up, lol. I do agree with what you're saying in a way, that they (humans) do capture emotion better than Vocaloids, but as I said, it still is amazing how much emotion a program can bring to singing. This really is not a song that I would say is full of emotion, but she's singing is Engrish and sounds robotic, but that's totally natural, considering the fact that she's just singing a Lady Gaga song. xD;
@TheBakaTsumi You have to admit some singers don't put any emotion and the people who are creating the songs put emotion. For example last night good night.
@TheBakaTsumi I have to disagree ... I've heard songs where you hear some feeling and also, who know where the technology will be in like 20 years ? Who thought there'd be a singing synthesizer for 20 years ago ?
@TheBakaTsumi next century is a little over exagerated don't you think? Considering how we advanced in the past 20 years, I wouldn't be surprised if they have a human like vocaloid in the next 20~30 years.
@TheBakaTsumi How do you know? o yeah thats right you don't. We can't even predict what will happen 50 years from now, let alone a decade. Sure emulation emotion is extremely difficult, but to say we will never reach that level of realism is...no just no
@TheBakaTsumi uhh... the songs have complete meaning. anything that can make you laugh, cry, or have any type of mixed emotions has a lot of feeling. in some songs, the vocaloids sound like they have a bit of feeling. and also, of course it'll sound like no feeling cos they're pretty much PROGRAMS. not people.
.___.
srry just expressing my opinion. i still agree with you a little bit tho. i like to listen to covers by people on niconico cos they're amazing. :D
@TheBakaTsumi I'm sure in a century (err..much sooner), the Vocaloids will at least have variations of singing with emotion, and you'll be able to set when they express an emotion in their singing.
@TheBakaTsumi I agree with you...to a certain extent. While it's apparent that this person used a lot of effort, they are a terrible example of how well vocaloids can be used. There are many producers that capture the true essence of the emotion they attempt to convey in their songs through outstanding use of a vocaloid instrument, and I pity you for never having come across them.
In fact, in comparison to someone like Wowaka, or DECO*27, this Luka's pitching is fucking garbage lol
Other artists, should also include those who use Miku with a dark append; such as: Hachi, NashimotoP and HoeHoep.
Please don't take this particular cover or other cover songs as the actuality to how most Vocaloid voice banks are suppose to sound in the terms of music.
@TheBakaTsumi A compromise/sacrifice of emotion and technique for tonal accuracy and range. Sure in the future, audio scientists and engineers can integrate drive, falsetto, and other human vocal techniques into speech replication software, but emotion is a human product/experience. Same extends for auto-tune and the like.
@TheBakaTsumi Of course they won't be as great as humans. A human actually has to put effort to sing. Sure, it takes a lot of time to make a vocaloid sing, but when it comes to the truth: they are fake. And they will never replace ANYONE. So for the die-hard fans: Len is never going to be better than JB. :)
@TheBakaTsumi Depends on the song. Some are better for Vocaloids (such as Kagome Kagome and possibly also Oyasumi) because the longer stretches of the same tone or the robotic sound can add to the creepiness or emotional feeling the song projects.
Furthermore, some lyrics will always be better for the characters that are Vocaloids because they're singing about the sad aspects of being a Vocaloid (or an android in general).
And as long as the lyrics don't suck, Vocaloids sound more sincere (and less fake/pretentious) than a LOT of humans. That is a huge factor for many songs.
@Taoisman Okay, after reading like a million replies to my comment, I think a lot of people have misunderstood me. As I've said before, I'm NOT saying that every human being out there will be better than a Vocaloid. Some of us are good singers, and some of us are not. What I'm trying to say that the human ABILITY surpasses that of a Vocaloid. I mean, come on, they're robots. Even with futuristic technology to make them sound real, humans still hold first place for emotion and passion.
@TheBakaTsumi Yeah, a lot of people might have taken that the wrong way. Me, I just disagree. Possibly because I put them in two different categories. There are many concepts humans can put more emotion into, and there are many concepts Vocaloids can put more emotion into. It's a mostly thematic difference that relies on the listener's interpretation. So to me, they are equal in potential (which is almost endless), and just plain different in execution.
haters gonna hate, etc etc.
I think this sounds great, really.

@MeeshaMeeshaPup It's because she has an English voice bank.
I think they should make more vocaloids with foreign voice banks.. :)

a bit more tweaking would of made it sound more better, as for real emotion its just we have real time control over our voices yet some of us sound crap when we try to sing because physical limits and lack of practice where on a computer the only limitation will always be the user, and if the user isn't willing to put in the time it will sound like shit... as for lady gaga crap singer but makes up for it in other areas, just like uffie!! infact i think vocaloid sings better than uffie :P

No, it will be some time until a computer can sing with 'real' emotion and all that (It can still happen ... might just take some time). But you can't really compare a human with a computer. Like Lady gaga and Luka, Lady gaga writes alot of her songs herself and she is an awesome performer (have seen her live, so I know) but Luka isn't even real and she does not have any 'real' talent. Although I do choose to listen to vocaloid rather than real singers. I'm just sayin', you can't compare.

To be completely honest, I love Vocaloid, but I feel that they'll never be able to reach up to humans when it comes to the emotion in singing. Sure, their songs are catchy and their voices are very well done, but they can't capture feeling. There could be a trillion Vocaloids over the next century, but they'll never be able to compare to the singing of a human.

@TheBakaTsumi Don't underestimate the power of technology... We have friggen holograms! But, yeah.. I kinda agree with you. Would be interesting if they were to make Vocaloid realistic sounding though.

@TheBakaTsumi Well yeah....they're computer generated voices. How are they supposed to show emotion?
gmpitts16 7 months ago
@gmpitts16 I know, that's exactly my point. I feel that sometimes people over-hype Vocaloids when it comes to these kind of "covers" or "dubs." (I don't know what to call it. XD) Vocaloid versions are catchy, but usually I like the human version better because the ability of Vocaloid isn't up there with the one of a human.

@TheBakaTsumi Have you ever heard of the Appends? I sure do hear some emotion in that. <3
Roserietta 7 months ago
@Roserietta That's one of my favorite Vocaloid songs. :D But I feel that when you're talking about emotion, you hear more of it from the actual music, not the Vocaloid singing. If you heard only Hatsune Miku singing, it wouldn't be nearly as good, at least in my opinion. I usually like listening to the Nico Nico Chorus versions of their songs. o u o

@kandykikki I never said that Vocaloid songs sucked. I'm actually a pretty hardcore Vocaloid fan. (Meh...maybe hardcore is a little too strong, but I really like a lot of their songs and I have drawn a good number of fanarts for them.) I'm just saying that I usually like to hear people like Choucho or Hanatan or whoever make their own covers of them. :)

yeah but nowadays, humans use so much edditing in their songs, they sound a lot like the vocaloids. When singing other songs, it probably would be a little harder to capture emotion.

@TheBakaTsumi I disagree. Vocaloids have brought me to tears, not only because of the sad lyrics/ stories, but because of the emotion that they're somehow managed to pull out of a voice synthesizer. Even if they didn't have feeling, they're still fantastic, in the notion that they're really just a program, and in my opinion, they've beat out human singers already, multiple times.

@personwhomeatspie Everyone has their own opinion, and I respect yours. In fact, I feel that you make a really good point. :D However, I'm not saying that every single human singer out there will be better than Vocaloids. I'm just saying that the ability of a human when it comes to expanding their talent and captivating the listener with their passion is superior to that of a Vocaloid. I really do love Vocaloid. :)
TheBakaTsumi 7 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi ^ . ^; I got a little worked up, lol. I do agree with what you're saying in a way, that they (humans) do capture emotion better than Vocaloids, but as I said, it still is amazing how much emotion a program can bring to singing. This really is not a song that I would say is full of emotion, but she's singing is Engrish and sounds robotic, but that's totally natural, considering the fact that she's just singing a Lady Gaga song. xD;

@TheBakaTsumi i know what you mean there :P but honestley, if you listen to some of the lilium covers, for example its amazing how close it comes!
and they still have a hell of a lot more feeling then some singers out there...

@TheBakaTsumi You have to admit some singers don't put any emotion and the people who are creating the songs put emotion. For example last night good night.

@TheBakaTsumi next century is a little over exagerated don't you think? Considering how we advanced in the past 20 years, I wouldn't be surprised if they have a human like vocaloid in the next 20~30 years.

@TheBakaTsumi How do you know? o yeah thats right you don't. We can't even predict what will happen 50 years from now, let alone a decade. Sure emulation emotion is extremely difficult, but to say we will never reach that level of realism is...no just no
partypeepers 7 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi uhh... the songs have complete meaning. anything that can make you laugh, cry, or have any type of mixed emotions has a lot of feeling. in some songs, the vocaloids sound like they have a bit of feeling. and also, of course it'll sound like no feeling cos they're pretty much PROGRAMS. not people.

srry just expressing my opinion. i still agree with you a little bit tho. i like to listen to covers by people on niconico cos they're amazing. :D
i completely respect your opinion

@TheBakaTsumi I'm sure in a century (err..much sooner), the Vocaloids will at least have variations of singing with emotion, and you'll be able to set when they express an emotion in their singing.
JunkMunchTazSquirm 7 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi I agree with you...to a certain extent. While it's apparent that this person used a lot of effort, they are a terrible example of how well vocaloids can be used. There are many producers that capture the true essence of the emotion they attempt to convey in their songs through outstanding use of a vocaloid instrument, and I pity you for never having come across them.
In fact, in comparison to someone like Wowaka, or DECO*27, this Luka's pitching is fucking garbage lol

@BLACKDOTSx I agree with you completely.
Other artists, should also include those who use Miku with a dark append; such as: Hachi, NashimotoP and HoeHoep.
Please don't take this particular cover or other cover songs as the actuality to how most Vocaloid voice banks are suppose to sound in the terms of music.
TeffisRad 7 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi A compromise/sacrifice of emotion and technique for tonal accuracy and range. Sure in the future, audio scientists and engineers can integrate drive, falsetto, and other human vocal techniques into speech replication software, but emotion is a human product/experience. Same extends for auto-tune and the like.

@TheBakaTsumi Of course they won't be as great as humans. A human actually has to put effort to sing. Sure, it takes a lot of time to make a vocaloid sing, but when it comes to the truth: they are fake. And they will never replace ANYONE. So for the die-hard fans: Len is never going to be better than JB. :)

@Okiora Damnnnn, you're gonna get killed LOL. I agree though. :D I think that sometimes Vocaloid is too overhyped. :P
TheBakaTsumi 7 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi Depends on the song. Some are better for Vocaloids (such as Kagome Kagome and possibly also Oyasumi) because the longer stretches of the same tone or the robotic sound can add to the creepiness or emotional feeling the song projects.
Furthermore, some lyrics will always be better for the characters that are Vocaloids because they're singing about the sad aspects of being a Vocaloid (or an android in general).
Taoisman 7 months ago
And as long as the lyrics don't suck, Vocaloids sound more sincere (and less fake/pretentious) than a LOT of humans. That is a huge factor for many songs.
Taoisman 7 months ago 147
@Taoisman Okay, after reading like a million replies to my comment, I think a lot of people have misunderstood me. As I've said before, I'm NOT saying that every human being out there will be better than a Vocaloid. Some of us are good singers, and some of us are not. What I'm trying to say that the human ABILITY surpasses that of a Vocaloid. I mean, come on, they're robots. Even with futuristic technology to make them sound real, humans still hold first place for emotion and passion.
TheBakaTsumi 6 months ago
@TheBakaTsumi Yeah, a lot of people might have taken that the wrong way. Me, I just disagree. Possibly because I put them in two different categories. There are many concepts humans can put more emotion into, and there are many concepts Vocaloids can put more emotion into. It's a mostly thematic difference that relies on the listener's interpretation. So to me, they are equal in potential (which is almost endless), and just plain different in execution.

Miku and Rin can speak only Japanese.
And Luka can speak English, too but not so good at it.
As far as you state about Luka's English song, I think you are right.
But about Japanese song, they seem to have already exceeded human.
I feel their songs have hearts.
If a human who has no heart programs a song, the song doesn&
