				 Not only can I sing in Japanese, I can also sing in Chinese, Korean, French, Italian, Latin, and of course English.   I've been singing for most of my life and have a natural affinity for languages, which makes it easy for me to sing in any language presented to me, whether I speak it or not. 
 
 
 
By the way TeenTitansFanatic, may I suggest shortening the length of your signature? It's not very cool to have to scroll that far down for just a sig. It's just courteous to shorten it.   |

				|  It really depends on how much I like the song, to learn to sing it correctly. But yea, in answer to your question I can sing a little in Japanese.  |

				|  I took a Japanese class in school, and we learned Do Re Mi and another song about a clock in Japanese. Do Re Mi was really hard to sing, as it went about twice as high as the English version. o_O  |

				  Anyone could sing in Japanese if they tried.  The real question should be whether they can sing it well and if they actually know what they're saying.      _________________ a jelly calypso castle in the sky |

				[quote="Paru (Paru)"] The real question should be whether they can sing it well and if they actually know what they're saying.    [/quote]
 
 first question : no
 
second : yes
 
 
Lol  n.n  I can't sing very well  (doesn't stop me though...I love to  n.n just not around people)
 
 
and I love J-pop/rock/etc and love singing in japanese.  
 
out of the two...I personally think I sing a little better in Japanese than in English.  |

				 Well, I know a minimal amount of Japanese, but I'm [i]powerful[/i] lazy and even when my fellow Japan-ophile literally shoves the lyrics to a Japanese song in my face I usually forget them. It drives her nuts.     So when I do sing along, I usually babble. It's like that ones song, "Louie Louie," only in another language.   |

				 yeah it really depends on what your singing, and personally it really doesn't matter to me whether or not i know what im signing because it has sucha  powerful feel to it. i love signing in japanese and some viet, sometimes the ups and downs in the words for viet get to fast for me. but alas korean is sooo hard for me to sing in     i can sing in german though!!!! ES GIBT KEIN BEIR AUF HAWAII!!! I will shut up now lol!  _________________ I'm just a simple MEGGY MAE. |

				 i got bored enough one day to write down lyrics to Edge (.hack//liminality)    
 
 
 
 
konomama zutto yukunone
 
uso wo tsumikasanetemo
 
kono michi wo nidoto  modoru koto wo dekinai
 
 
[i]I bet were going to keep going like this
 
Even if one lie leads to another
 
Well never be able to go back on this path again[/i]
 
 
ano toki fumihazushita  kyoukaisen no mukou ni
 
kimi wa donna yume egaite   ochite itta?
 
 
[i]On the other side of the borderline you crossed that time
 
What kind of dreams did you paint as you fell?[/i]
 
 
ashita niwa mietekuru   mirai nante roku demo nai kedo
 
moshikashitara sonnamono ni   sugaritsuite ikiteiru
 
 
[i]The future that becomes visible tomorrow isnt really that great
 
But just maybe were living clinging onto it anyway[/i]
 
 
kitto hounto wa kimi wo watashi mo   chigau basho de onaji mono wo
 
Sagashiteru, kanjiteru   tatta hitotsu no shinjitsu
 
 
[i]I bet you and I are looking for the same thing in different places
 
Searching and feeling for the one single truth[/i]
 
 
Soredake wo tada shiritakute  nanimo motazuni koko ni iru
 
Yume wo utsustsu wo samayou
 
Were too close to the edge!
 
 
[i]I want to know it so badly that I am here holding nothing
 
Drifting between dream and reality, 
 
Were too close to the edge![/i]
 
 
Konomama zutto yukunone 
 
Uso wo tsumikasanetemo
 
Fumihazushita michi wo   modoru koto wo dekinai
 
 
[i]I bet were going to keep going like this
 
Even if one lie leads to another
 
Well never be able to return to the path you stepped out of again[/i]
 
 
Kimi ga ima doko ni ite   nani wo mitsumete itemo
 
Sonna fuuni kokorohanashita mama  futari wa aishiauno!
 
 
[i]No matter where you are now or what youre looking at,
 
Even when our hearts are apart like that we will still love each other![/i]  |

				 Really? Cool! So did I!! >.< And I thought I was wierd cause I thought I was the only person who watched the DVD once just to write it down. I also wrote down the words for the ending theme to .hack//sign, Gentle Dawn.
 
 
 
My sig though is the another song for .hack//sign. But it's in english anyway >.<  |

				 it's weird..by the third or fourth time i listen to a song, i can almsot perfectly sing along with it.
 
 
even if i hear a song i haven't listenend to in years, i';ll still remember the lyrics perfectly.
 
 
Been hooked on 'Eden' (Yami No Matsuei/Descendants of Darkness opening theme) for a week now.. my current song obsession ^____^
 
 
Even though, 'Velvet Underworld' (from Weiss Kruez i believe) is pretty awesome.. i love the lyrics to it too ^__________^
 
 
edit: lyrics to Velvet Underworld:
 
 
Shinku no juutan ni nita
 
kono yo no hana wa mina omote
 
sono shita ni nagareru yami
 
kanashimi wa soko kara umare
 
aa, kokoro sae itsuwatte ikiruno ka
 
hito wa sadame ni ayatsurareru dake 
 
 
[i]the worlds flowers like a carpet of crimson red
 
as one scatter and toss through the air
 
sorrow and sadness are born there
 
from the darkness that streams underneath
 
ah, are hearts only meant to lie?
 
are people just puppets of fate [/i]
 
 
tada, itoshiki mono dakishime
 
chiisaki mono mamoru tame
 
kyou mo dare ka ga sakebu
 
kono inochi sae mo nagedashi
 
toki no naka de moetsukiru
 
sono isshun ni kuchizuke o 
 
 
[i]only to embrace those we love
 
and protect those small and precious
 
today again some one shouts that out
 
sacrificing even their life
 
to smolder in the midst of time
 
with that instants kiss.[/i]
 
 
yokubou ni yogoreta machi
 
fukinukeru kaze dake sora e
 
fuminiji rarete yuku ai
 
te no hira ni nokotta namida
 
aa, egao made ubawarete ikiru no ka
 
dare mo kizutsuki kokoro mo naiteru
 
 
[i] in this city stained with greed
 
there is only wind blowing towards the sky
 
all that is left of trampled love
 
is the tear left in the palm of my hand
 
ah, were smiles only meant to sunder?
 
every one has their wounded hearts[/i]
 
 
 
ima, hizamazuite inori o kakan nai mono mamoritai
 
mune ni juuji o kizamu
 
kono tomerarenai nani ka o
 
osaerareru tamashii o
 
tada shinjitai itsu made mo
 
[i]
 
I want to protect those timid creatures
 
those who kneel in prayer
 
I'll even carve a cross in my chest
 
to believe in something unstoppable
 
and the irrepressible spirit
 
now and forever[/i]
 
 
kumo ga kiete hoshi ga mieru
 
kaze ga tomari tori ga utau
 
umi ga hikari sora ni tokeru
 
yoru ga owari kimi o kanjiru 
 
 
[i]the clouds disperse the stars are seen
 
the wind stills the birds sing
 
the ocean shines the heavens thaw
 
the night ends I feel you [/i]
 
 
tada, itoshiki mono dakishime
 
chiisaki mono mamoru tame
 
kyou mo dare ka ga sakebu
 
kono inochi sae mo nagedashi
 
toki no naka de moetsukiru
 
sono isshun ni kuchizuke o

				 I love to sing in English or Japanese... even though I can't carry a tune. ^__^ In fact I'm quite fond of attempting to sing ramdom anime themes and j-pop songs at work when I'm on night shift and there's no customers.  Especially the opening to Azumanga Daioh, and White Reflection (From Endless Waltz).  But I can never remember all the words so I either end up repeating the same half dozen lines over and over again or I just start making up words that go along with the tune.  Then the kitchen guys usually start yelling at me to shut up.  _________________ [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v142/DG-sama/avatars/kingsig.jpg[/img]

				|  Heh. I do the same at home! My older sister gets annoyed and then looks at me like I am some kind of freak. But eventually it would get stuck in her head and she makes a poor attept to sing it too. But she just says a ton of nonsence in tune with it cause she can't remember the lyrics! Then she's the freak! ^____^  |
