Yes, of course it's obvious. Doesn't make it any less funny.
And remeber, if you see Godzilla, don't turn around until you're miles away. Then you can gawk.
*Yes, that's right. "Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto."
Speaking of which, I found this great short-form video of the Styx ummm, masterpiece. The other one I spotted was for the whole song and done by one singular, stay-in-the-basement-of-his-parent's-home kid. He really needs Mr. Roboto to help him escape. Secret, secret, he's got a secret.
Ah man, you have me listed as "nakata" still. Hahaha @ barnes&noble. Imagine if I really WAS related to the owners? I'd be rolling in trillions of yen. I mean, dollars.
ReplyDeleteI'm turning into an Japanophile, I realize. The video/song could not have been more perfect.
And did you know Mr. Roboto is like one of my FAVOURITE songs of ALL TIME?! Seriously. I think I sing it everyday.
I love this post!!!! hehehe, I feel all special.
"Jamaican cum Canadian cum Jewish-Christian observant cum black Japanese extraordinaire. Inspired by Bill Murray, our Li'l Miss Linguist is going to Japan to teach English to the masses." < THAT is going in my profile, someway, somehow :)
Ps. it's "Emelia"...but good try nonetheless :)
ReplyDeletecool. i think that guy in the second "Mr. Roboto" video may just be your white, rail-thin twin brother.
ReplyDeletei'm sorry, i just think the song's a pale imitation of bohemian rhapsody, a 5-minute grandiose epic hardrock story. but it's still fun.
if i were you, i'd be concerned about the representation of my last name. haHa. tomorrow you just might be kurisuteen kurosawa.
b&n, hate to break it to ya, is still just a little brother to borders. i went to the 'christianity' section at b&n yesterday. no martin luther, no calvin, very little n.t. wright. but they got borg. yuck!
