10 | ---- |
11 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M9mPSK9wbE4 Usachii's dub of "Black Rock Shooter" is awesome]], perhaps even better than the original! |
12 | %%** Think that's it? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A_tm8wgvqw0 Try her dub of Melt]]. |
13 | * Another great "Black Rock Shooter" cover would be [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zWDj7DentZc Choucho's.]] Her voice is stunningly perfect for the song. |
14 | %%* Miku and Luka shippers beware! Don't listen to these covers of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcFtfTxED5I "Suki Kirai"]],[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRv1JKpvXms "Renai Saiban"]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-pP31Pk5Ec "Futariboshi"]] by Hyurno if you don't want to pass on to the afterlife just yet! Also another one, covered by Hyurno himself: "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l9PZRjC5m7o Toluthin Antenna]]". |
15 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icL75O6Kx9Y MJQ-P's cover of Kana Nishino's Darling]] using Miku [=V4X Beta=]. Sad that it's just a short cover. |
16 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U70k3QDQTM4 A cover of "Drop Pop Candy..."]] by ''VideoGame/{{Undertale}}'''s Sans and Papyrus?! |
17 | * "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZ0O-hwuwZc Boss Death]]", covered by the Valshe, is better than Miku's (especially the PV). |
18 | %%* There's been some pretty damn good Spanish dubs, such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YH9hKCHsrqU this version of Gekokujou]]. |
19 | * [=JoyDreamer=] and [=aFlowerSmiles=]'s English cover of the "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_8Zs0KO3wI Synchronicity Trilogy]]" is absolutely perfect in every sense of the word. The translation flows exactly in time with the original and both singers are perfect in tone, pitch, and emotion. |
20 | %%* Wotamin's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8BpggZLBRdk OVER]]". |
21 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rU7ILNV2UsQ And Two Breaths Walking]]. |
22 | %%** Wotamin's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCmfzyuI19M Sweet Devil]], if you read the comments of the original subtitled less [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aD4D_L4LzdU video]] many female fans feel very attracted to her. |
23 | * Elly's voice is simply powerful in "Your Body Temperature". |
24 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jihwBKDLkJg Soundless Voice's Russsian cover of Cantarella.]] So awesome. |
25 | * Liqu@'s cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFRhXWDKNRg Shinitagari]]" is filled with emotion and the blunt truth of the song is completely awesome. |
26 | * The duo Fantastic Youth (comprising singer Onyu and rapper [=LowFat=]) have some awesome covers. Onyu's voice in particular is (pun intended) fantastic. |
27 | ** Their cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atykIBND1bg BRING IT ON]]" by Giga is just brimming with energy. |
28 | ** Their cover of "Dance! VR Dance!", with added rap parts and all that goodness. |
29 | * The raw power and emotion of Fye's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WS7ojfWUVOY Love Is War]] has to be heard to be believed. She's also done an absolutely gorgeous cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IzsNMLA5IUs Last Night, Good Night]]. |
30 | * Vasreiu's cover of Pane Dhiria, especially the distinctly different vocal style she uses for the [[{{Conlang}} Hanamogera]] parts. |
31 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUViQm6fUcI This dub of Magnet]]. If you thought THAT was good, then listen to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IUpRT1-FQs this cover]] or [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3yr1Wv3w9LQ this cover]]. |
32 | %%* All of Senka's covers. "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CcHDLKSjzE The Galactic Railroad in the City of Night]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHCN82K_V1g Black Cat]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NmUcKNoAhDc BadBye]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i3A_dxnkou8 Pierrot]]", "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6yC8j_gIpk Cyber Thunder Cider]]" and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4l8fICWDrs ALICE iN BLACK MARKET]]". |
33 | * [[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11485096 Shounen-T's version of "SPICE!"]] takes the sexiness of the original up a notch. He even adds an entire new verse! |
34 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XWmq3pLMMiI This cover of "The Disappearance of Hatsune Miku"]] first stuns you that LIQU@ is able to even keep up with the insanely fast tempo. Then you hit [[TearJerker 2:00]] and you're left gasping from the sheer emotion. |
35 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/user/RusEmnily Emnily]]. Particularly her Russian dubs of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hU7MqgLJkQ4 Love is War]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h3INYxWMfdY Mozaik Roll]]. There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHjdqy8Icao a mix of her a cappella version of Love is War paired with the piano version]], giving the song a distant, somber twist. |
36 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/user/WatermelonSuikax Suika]] has some fantastic German dubs. Special mention goes to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFuTf7T5zvo Just Be Friends]]! |
37 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTs3J0qnvbk Valshe's version of Mase Lenka]]. Her being of the opposite gender takes nothing away from the awesomeness of the original. |
38 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdD9aq4u2Nk Valshe]]. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=THhuyJWnnVw Just]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO48KOFydvU Valshe.]] And yes, that's a girl, and yes, she sings both parts. |
39 | %%** Also, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fch04zA3L0 her version of Butterfly on Your Right Shoulder]]. |
40 | %%** Choco & Valshe's version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dF6BwCrbSAg Dreamy Cherry Blossoms]] is beautiful, possibly better than the original. |
41 | * [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm12478174 Owata-P and cosMo cover Matryoshka]]. Yes, that is ''Music/CosMo'' on the right, doing that adorable falsetto. His voice really is as adorable as people say! Owata-P isn't too shabby either. |
42 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUd0raj4XO8 Akiakane's cover]] of "Out of Eden". (Amazingly, she also did the PV.) |
43 | %%** And there is also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJAdsvwzRiA Toosenbo]] from Wowaka. |
44 | %%** She can scream well, her dub of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNgL1Ozz8i4 Sleeping Beauty]] proves it. |
45 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Sg5FNuqvic This English fandub]] of Music/SasakureUK's "*HELLO, PLANET". |
46 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ok4-W7JyYJc Hitori's cover]] of Gekokujou is impressive. |
47 | * yuyoyuppe-P has a penchant for making heavy metal songs (all of them VERY epic), but one that really takes the cake is Noir's version of "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm13203796 Leia]]". Also Doubie's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTXiu7GQaKY version]] has been downright showered with obsessive praise in the comments section. |
48 | %%* Zephyria Genevive's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cE0JZ16fHCw cover of Rin's THE DYING MESSAGE]] will blow your mind. |
49 | * Ritsuka's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUon9mz-ALs Chocolate Train]] is sweet and soft sounding, which arguably better than the original. |
50 | * Ron's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D97BCGSCB_I Fukkireta]]" is super addictive. |
51 | %%* Da-little's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e-r1JnhEB3E ZOU]]". |
52 | %%* Another [=AVTechNO=] song turned up a notch: Himawari's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-VPsDZ70RI NEL]]". |
53 | * Mio's cover of Rin Kagamine's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPj-AVXNCVI Regret Message]]" is heart-wrenching at its best and it will have you breaking out tears from the sheer emotion put into the singing and voice acting. |
54 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_5deJBKsD7s Microsoft Sam's cover of PoPiPo]] ... what? |
55 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbSutqfpABI And likewise this cover of "World Is Mine"]], retitled "World is Sam's". In Japanese. Yeah. Oh and uh, watch out for the ending. |
56 | %%** Try this cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nwegQuUfFFg Campanella]]. And listen for the "commentary" at the end. |
57 | * Ttubi's cover of "Sky High", a Teto Kasane original. Her ability to reach high notes will blow you away. |
58 | %%* Usa's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XPTIUaYw_kw Cat Food]], yet again Usa strikes! |
59 | %%* [=BananaKurimu=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6oMZgK0YQE siGrE]] chorus is absolutely ''amazing''. Their chorus of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38sHK5dfRM4 Omoide Kakera]] manages to be even better. |
60 | %%* Nobunaga x Guriri x TMDC on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JLnDTSw2zs Choose me]] is the sexiest awesome dub collaboration. |
61 | * Luschka's English version of "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm4596353 Last Night Good Night]]" is so damn beautiful, especially when she hits that freakishly high note near the end. And her [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Im9Udjfa84 cover of "Heavenly Blue"]] routinely [[AwesomenessIsVolatile makes]] [[YourHeadAsplode heads explode.]] |
62 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/user/coochachu Enn]] is amazing. |
63 | ** Especially notable are her versions of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lC_V3zYjEdM Servant of Evil]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vvq2Kgjt0Ks Cendrillon]] in which she voices both the male and female parts. |
64 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4cLn3UKiP0 Just listen]] to her cover of "Regret Message". You can hear her voice break as she sings, conveying all the emotion and heartache of the song. |
65 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9MSGP69iwM Alice in Musicland]] dubbed only by yusuke alone. And with his CrossDressingVoices, he dubs [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oOEbHSMr5Gg Eat Me]]. |
66 | * Microsoft Sam's cover of "Last Night, Good Night". Amazing - and actually [[TearJerker heartrending]]. |
67 | * Gero's voice fits "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C9lO3BMJ7Yc Lynne]]" perfectly. |
68 | * Glutamine's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77pSfk1zNsY Lynne]] is pretty emotional as well. |
69 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUAtCycSP4w Jurelskit's mashup cover]] of apolxcore's acoustic cover of "Saihate" is absolutely stunning. The timing of some notes are uneven, but that is inevitable when making a mashup. These girls blend like angels and will give you tingles. |
70 | %%* Clear. His dubs of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WAbmGxBMNU Sweet Sweet Cendrillon Drug]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u_ZFnY3eviM Melody in the Sky]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mUoVkAQtSm4 Dark Alice]] are AMAZING. |
71 | * "Depression of the Young Literati" is originally sung by Miku, but when you hear [[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9785044 Hokke's version]] you know it was made for him to sing. |
72 | * [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/user/4750136 Nene's]] cover of Hatsune Miku's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVVM6U_dbVg The Moon of the West River]]". Even if you're not fluent in Mandarin, you have to admit her singing is just lovely. |
73 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/user/enedayo Ene's]] dub of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rai9Lff9tsM If]] from Muryouku-p. |
74 | %%* Duet from Hatsune Miku and Kei Fujimiya on [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rwW82eoiUjQ Overture~Circus~]]. |

76 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CdBfdxuwIMg The Immoral Memory, The Lost Memory]] by Clear, 96neko and Pokota. |
77 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yurk6-GtTJ8 This]] rendition of Paradichlorobenzene by Faneru, Jack and Asamaru. Isn't it just the sexiest thing ever? |
78 | %%* [=VocaLight=]'s cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dnd-VhNfYA0 Dancer in the Dark]], sung by no less than ''seven''. |
79 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZongnDTHkY Hello/How Are You]] Amazing cover by Ritsuka. |
80 | * "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9449939 Blindness]]" by F9, one of the best from her. |
81 | %%* Miyako Nana's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mlzU_5wxATw Luka Luka Night Fever]]". |
82 | * This cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S4Q7mIcG8e0 Ura Omote Lovers]]" - amazingly, the (solo) singer simulates both the voices of Sonika and Piko very convincingly, never mind being able to sing so fast. Try also this cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWwoL6wD0SI the same song]], sung by [[Anime/TigerAndBunny Kotetsu T. Kaburagi]]. |
83 | %%* Ever heard of "[[http://com.nicovideo.jp/community/co612591 Nano]]"? Fluent in English and Japanese, and covers songs in both languages. |
84 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dm034J6OTgw Sky Aquarium]]. |
85 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_H0leDszkc Rolling Girl]], and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DghTAxZSbro Rolling Girl w/ Yonji on Guitar]]. |
86 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FU7-8w0gg0w The Beast]]. |
87 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=spbWa07Gyh4 Mozaik Role]]. |
88 | * The Momone cover of [[https://soundcloud.com/victorvondrew/monone-rolling-girl Rolling Girl]] can induce chills with her smooth voice amply capturing the song's emotion. |
89 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HaeG4_OeYA This]] is Miku's original version of Starduster. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fk4VoQbtgDo This]] is Miimu's cover. Please decide for yourself which one is better. |
90 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=70vHIC_8Ung Saki's cover of Heart Beats]], originally sung by Luka and produced by emon, is especially nice to listen to. |
91 | * While [[https://www.youtube.com/user/rockleetist Rockleetist]] has retired from covering Vocaloid songs and deleted all of her covers off of her [=YouTube=] channel, some are still available on [=NicoNico=] or fans' channels. |
92 | %%** Worth special mention are her versions of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj9NKB27kNE Just be]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeSKEp6-46Q Friends]]. |
93 | ** Rockleetist's "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9393658 Double lariat]]" may be even better than the original. |
94 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3SoTqFjnvY Anger-11RMX]]" is an awesome collaboration between Rockleetist and Tripshots, whose song she's covering. |
95 | %%** Rockleetist's English dub of Miku's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDuAtl63cM0 Strobe Nights]]", which itself was in turn covered by Miku herself. |
96 | ** Her English cover of "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm9940334 Can't I Even Dream?]]" is just beautifully heartbreaking. |
97 | ** Rockleetist's English cover of "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11979952 Rotten Girl, Grotesque Romance]]" also deserves a mention for making the song even creepier than the original. |
98 | ** Ditto for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDZ46uhR1Fs Kagome, Kagome]]". |
99 | ** Her piano arrange of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOLx3Ca9o9o Saihate]]" is really beautiful. |
100 | %%* Speaking of English covers, [[https://www.youtube.com/user/JubyPhonic/ JubyPhonic]] has some absolutely ''spectacular'' English renditions of Vocaloid songs, such as: |
101 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t14KV5qf-Hc Rolling Girl]]". |
102 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vDymzSBx8I Romeo and Cinderella]]". |
103 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTwyaIo9ADk Death Should Not Have Taken Thee!]]" |
104 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbHY7vBAp4o The Game of Life]]". |
105 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gKh-P6jGwBw Reboot]]". |
106 | %%** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MU-rdG-M5Ho Kagerou Daze]]". |
107 | %%** Taken even further with her cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8eh8U5H7i0 Shounen Brave]]", which has its own unique PV. |
108 | %%** ... You know, let's just make things easy and say that her entire video gallery is amazing. |
109 | * Yet another fantastic English dubber, [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgVa3YCTEK7_CTDSF_1NLOA SirHamnet]] is notable in that she can pull off both feminine and masculine vocals ''flawlessly.'' You will not find a more perfect English trap singer and voice for Rin and Len's songs. For example: |
110 | ** Her cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh0P6_QyGSc Spice!]] is absolutely spot on, capturing the tone and sensuality of the original perfectly. It also shows off her lower vocal range quite nicely. |
111 | ** Her cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n8yTsO-n3sI Alluring Secret ~Black Vow~]] is absolutely flawless. The translation is beautiful and flowing, both Rin and Len's parts are damn-near perfect, and the emotion she puts into it really makes it exceptional among other fantastic English covers of Vocaloid songs. |
112 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asokLBYE5gw How-To: World Domination]]. |
113 | %%* [=Katerinu2=]'s dub of Luka's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_wnaz3riyw You are mine]]" turns this song from catchy into SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic. |
114 | %%* POPPY's English version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4h5GKJJMs3Y Two Breaths Walking/Nisoku Hokou]] is just great. |
115 | %%** Likewise her dub of Luka's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmsnT3dq4fs Eleven Rave Girl]]. |
116 | %%** Poppy x Nobunaga of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPNT_QEgzCY Distorted Princess]]. |
117 | %%* While we're still on English dubs, Dvarimonstage's dub of the piano version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwGUGGbqQtw Servant Of Evil]] deserves a mention. |
118 | * The English dub of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xRxfcRIchFY ReAct]]" with Miku-Tan as Miku, Anba-Len as Len, and Kodachii as Rin is just plain awesome. As is its predecessor, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsZsPt8mXxA Acute]]", performed entirely in English, by singers who aren't native speakers of the language. Mes, Blanc and Nanasi really do it justice. |
119 | %%* Many English dubs by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Gagadera Road (Gagadera)]]. |
120 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JgS_msmTiZ0 Two Breaths Walking]]. |
121 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rfEf09R9hR0 Unhappy Refrain]]. |
122 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=66WuY0MjNp8 Shinkai Summit]]. |
123 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8awjPpEEig Coward Montblanc]]. |
124 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLrC29fRqAY Sweetiex2]]. |
125 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EngAkeH1Rk8 Hello/How Are You]] (shaky start, but it gets better). |
126 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUxD7MGVFLI A new challenger has arrived!]] Koko (Kodachii) does many English dubs, but "Two Breaths Walking" is one of her best. |
127 | %%* Reza's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jOQjMsOcEs Coward Montblanc]]. It's a shame that no one likes her. She's become mean. |
128 | * Nero's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfEsWD7Wcyo Just a Game]]. As one commenter said, "His voice can make straight men gay." |
129 | %%* Miku's "Glow" was emotional enough. Now hear an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5UZH9Nvtu0 English Dubbed version]] of it (by [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/user/17288634 Mes]]). |
130 | %%** Another [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYNX-7LbB-o English dub]] by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/nanois2525 Nano]]. |
131 | %%** And this [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/1338634887 Japanese cover]] by Glutamine takes it to a whole new emotional level. |
132 | * Coochachu's English dubs are fantastic. Special mention goes to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XqoiBTDPZ6A A Song with No Name]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4cLn3UKiP0 Regret Message]]. The latter will definitely require some [[TearJerker tissue papers]]... |
133 | %%* Miku-tan's English dub of Gumi's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRiYnhE3NoU I Want to Meet You]]". |
134 | %%** There's also her cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utFjGiW6Iuo Evil Food Eater Conchita]]. |
135 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g78EJkYcmpY Acoustic Mozaik Role.]] Awesome. |
136 | %%* Holic's cover of Miku's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvi7S2KYqGw Yume to Hazakura]]". And here's an [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zu_M-pI_kRg instrumental flute version]] by Yokocyo. |
137 | %%* Holic's cover of Gumi's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J-IrYdmCTbc Poison and Divide]]". |
138 | * This "Kagerou Days" Cover somehow manages to make the song even more disturbing. But it's amazingly sung and the PV is gorgeous (when it's not grotesque). |
139 | %%* Razzyness has several high quality dubs. Most of the translations are done by him as well. Try [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zz1uIkKVbLo SiGRe]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Razzyness#p/c/D917159B3D746662/2/hx8tru8TbaA Madness of Duke Venomania]]. Song lyrics translated by him and then sung by Miku-Tan are pretty good too, there's [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Razzyness#p/c/D917159B3D746662/3/kA4e3FR-utI Top Secret]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/user/Razzyness#p/c/D917159B3D746662/1/HWMvlUGGOB4 Romeo and Cinderella]]. |
140 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAyOKEAeuEI LovelessXXX]]. Holy biscuits. |
141 | %%** Bad. End. Night. A collection of well known dub singers performing one of the best vocaloid songs? [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0H-FI34xp8 Yes please!]] |
142 | %%** Len's voice may be deeper than what someone might be used to, but [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SJ8BeNZfABk this one]] is still a... treat. |
143 | * Music/{{Machigerita}} P does [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWbA7_veA_Q PON PON PON.]] And yes, it is exactly how you think it would be. And his cover of [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm12431230 Matryoshka]] manages to make the song both crazy AND creepy. |
144 | * 96Neko parodies Rin-chan Nau! to give us, of course, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9S0id5DTB3U Len-kun Nau!]], while [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kcell1SATL8 This is the happiness and peace of mind committee]] showcases how many utterly ''different'' yet interesting voices she can pull off, and adds a whole monologue in MotorMouth at that! She shows a more sultry side on her cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gL0VbvD80I Hitorinbo Envy]]". Talk about smooth as silk. |
145 | * Let's get some more recognition for the amazingly sexy male cover of Gumi's "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm19445764 Shiryoku Kensa]]" by [[http://utaite.wikia.com/wiki/KanzentaiCell Kanzentai Cell (Now called Kanseru due to copyright issues)]]. He also does awesome versions of Ippou Tsuukou (One-way Traffic) and Tetrodotoxin Synthesizer No. 2. Not to mention the non-Vocaloid songs Ponponpon and Tsukema Tsukeru (originally by Kyaru Pamyu Pamyu). |
146 | * Lasah's cover of kous' [[http://tinyurl.com/lasah Lying Fake Flower]] blows Miku's original version out of the water. |
147 | %%* Take a listen to this fantastic cover duet of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fu3tSVVk12Q Cendrillon]]" and enjoy... Then realize that the "female" vocalist isn't actually female at all... |
148 | * Sekihan's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hwxrezYuXsg Bad End Night]]. No, that's not the Nico Nico Chorus - that's entirely the voice of one guy. |
149 | * Yuuto's piano cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYszotuu-7E Six Trillion Years and One Night Story]]" is especially heart-rending. He sings piano-version covers very well, as evident in "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm12495299 Double Lariat]]" and "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm11552644 Just be Friends]]". |
150 | %%* Rui's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RPDaA5rlHgY Cremation Melody]]". |
151 | %%* Guriri's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCYSkN2i-Dg Remote Control]]" by Jesus-P. Both Len's and Rin's parts are covered by her. |
152 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqa02bhbYxs Meitsuki, MOKONO, and Orechan's cover]] of "Rain Dream Tower" by Hitoshizuku-P. |
153 | %%* Yorusagara's covers are just plain gorgeous. For examples, we have his versions of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_nNh23tylw Servant of Evil]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1vHqF48Ypds Mosaic Roll]]. His 9000+ subs celebration cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWP7l5zGgPo Jailbreak]] also qualifies. |
154 | * Most of Choumiryou's work, particularly his covers of [[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm19559323 Ada-Gaeshi Syndrome]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PAaaRqQ03Dk All's Well on the Cherry Blossom Fronts]]. He has a nearly peerless range, able to swing from the lowest end of baritone, to the higher points of a tenor without missing a beat, as best exemplified with his cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TgdDk18ddZk This is the Happiness and Peace of Mind Committee]]. |
155 | * Lizz's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=And6RWOjKrA Jutenija]]". Her voice is perfect for the atmosphere of the song, making it possibly better than the original. And her version of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qpe3CzI8oHc Answer]] is one of the best. |
156 | * A fandub of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fwu-8InKQFE Toeto]]" by Laurel keeps the cutesy feel of the song but with English lyrics. |
157 | * Kran's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov5IyW-O6bg English dub of Senbonzakura]] is both well-written and well-sung; an excellent adaptation. |
158 | * An Music/{{UTAU}} cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hotT4nb8ka0 Synchronicity]] sung by Matsudappoiyo and Matsudappoine. Some commenters have even said it sounds better than the original Rin/Len version. |
159 | %%* Yumo's cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mI67yjCp6mY Meltdown]]" is multiple forms of awesome. |
160 | * [=ShionNezumi=] uses [=VY1=] and [=VY2=] for a [[SugarWiki/SurprisinglyGoodForeignLanguage surprisingly good Spanish]] cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2h7nP_5HeQ iNSaNiTY.]] |
161 | * [=kuteasabutton56=]/Button (who usually goes by Mage now) on Website/YouTube has a few dub covers. Her English dub of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCdEjwsH5Yg Tokyo teddy bear]]," while down an octave, is still impressive. Her best English dub by far is "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DjeWC6rJ-kg The Snow White Princess Is]]", or, its full name, "The Snow White Princess Is... (Not An Idiot)". Just... listen. Oh, she also had a GratuitousJapanese cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OugBplbDRPc Indulging Idol Syndrome]]", that shows her vocal talent off. |
162 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1YmiKiG5dsk Gift From The Princess Who Brought Sleep]]." Credit goes to her for changing the WhamLine from "A woman seeking after hope" to "it's all for the sake of ''my own happiness.''" |
163 | ** On her Website/{{tumblr}}, she has "[[http://mageshine-dance.tumblr.com/post/98270048284/mage-of-eternal-time-i-did-another Rolling Girl]]", "[[http://mageshine-dance.tumblr.com/post/100124750004/i-fell-in-love-with-mothyps-wrath-song-so-i Muzzle of Nemesis]]", and "[[http://mageshine-dance.tumblr.com/post/101444957254/in-honor-of-all-hallows-eve-heres-one-of-my The Full Course For Candy Addicts]]". In the last of these, she changes some of the lyrics around, [[NightmareFuel implying that her lover isn't the first one]] [[spoiler:[[NightmareFuel the singer has killed and eaten]]]]. And the [[DissonantLaughter giggle]] at the end is possibly more terrifying than the original. |
164 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q2meWkWqc-I Wagakki Band's cover]] of Rin's "Tengaku" ("Music of heavens") adds a lot of traditional Japanese instruments to it (along with a more traditional singing style by the singer) and switches Rin's sweet, high-pitched voice with the singer's deep womanly voice; the result manages to sound both very different and very similar at the same time, and is 100% pure, unadulterated awesome. |
165 | * "Política da Utopia Mal Feita", a European Portuguese cover of "Shoddy Utopia Policy". Mora's voice can pull off an amazing European Portuguese accent, making her sound realistic enough to make you feel emotional. |
166 | %%* [=LucyHasYou=] wrote the well known English translation of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-iLgEPvaaQ Eh, Ah Sou?]] |
167 | %%** There's also [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YLnkKwY6Q0 Miku-Tan]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uaHFUgrRIQo Ashe's]] version. |
168 | %%** Lucy's cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uihCLspOaj8 Time Machine]] is also really nice. |
169 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SihIVzGDmOI Streaming Heart]] by [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRbsmnDTHD9-4pEIuG7zYRw rachie.]] |
170 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K5ErTfStf3A A Born Coward.]] |
171 | %%** Two other awesome covers of "Streaming Heart" by (quite the realistic) [=UTAUs=] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfa7B0Jx7-c Gahata Meiji]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfa7B0Jx7-c Zuiga Mizuki]]. |
172 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIfc7ag99uw Zoozbuh's rendition]] of Cremation Melody is one of the few English covers you can find, and it's awesome. He has a lot of good dubs, but special mention goes to his cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rwtuu1Zt68 Cantarella ~ Grace Edition.~]] |
173 | * If you liked LUVORATORRRRRY!, check out [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-o_bMkzOW0 Reol's cover.]] She brings in rapper and fellow utaite nqrse[[note]]yes, that's his name[[/note]] to add his own original verses to the song's musical interludes, just to ramp up the awesome. |
174 | * Bringing in a [[AWildRapperAppears wild rapper]] to spice up her covers and fill out instrumental breaks is practically Reol's MO, even for songs she didn't help write. Perhaps the two most notable examples are her cover of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JES55S-l5RM Isshinfuran]] where out of the trio of herself, nqrse and ill.bell, she's the only one bothering with the original lyrics, while the other two are [[MotorMouth rapping so fast]] the kinetic typography of the video is struggling to keep up at times, and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ll45Eb9Ix8c Bring It On]][[note]]which she DID work on, even providing background vocals in the original version![[/note]] in which the rap breakdown from the original is replaced with Giga-P's own (similarly MotorMouth-heavy) verse that Reol actually joins him for. |
175 | %%** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFulzeSUba8 96neko's cover]] is also great. |
176 | * Thought "Drop Pop Candy" was good with Rin and Luka? Watch the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9eyyhtOrKPI human version]] with Reol and Giga-P. It's ''mindblowing''. |
177 | * This duet cover of "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOhNlTt5lzo Witch Hunt]]" by Fukurou and Mac is ''godly''. It sounds like an all-male choir sang every last part of the song, but no-- it was just ''two guys''. They're ''that'' good. |
178 | * ECHO by Crusher-P is awesome already. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ve-zS8UI-8 Then Seiryuudo combined 8 covers, the original, and a guitar cover]] to amp both the awesome and {{Nightmare Fuel}}ling elements of the original. |
179 | * The vocals on [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm21766184 Rib's cover]] of "Sacred Spear Explosion Boy" really heighten the...er, frustration the main character is going through, all while keeping its sexually charged atmosphere. [[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm21920703 Underbar's version]] is softer, but keeps the same atmosphere. |
180 | * [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I13FYnCcwPI This English cover of "Doki Doki Yuri Gakuen"]] by [=CinnamonPunch=] as Miku and [=HAN0N1viBrtiannia=] as Rin. Both sound wonderful, the latter sounds adorable and the former's voice is beautiful. |
181 | %%* ''AudioPlay/ExitTunesPresentsACTORS'' has a whole host of covers done by ''professional'' seiyuu, and a number of them are good in their own right. Special mention goes to Creator/KenjiNojima's cover of "[[https://soundcloud.com/maylune/feat?in=user-814404675-957580831/sets/actors Pomp and Circumstance]]" and Creator/YukiOno's cover of "[[https://soundcloud.com/thenakedradio-tumblr22/killer-lady-ono-yuuki-actors4?in=user-814404675-957580831/sets/actors KiLLER LADY]]". |
182 | * Kylee Henke is known more for her ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'' songs, but her acoustic cover of "[[http://kyleehenke.tumblr.com/post/43709447382 Alice]]" is so hauntingly soft and gentle. |
183 | * Music/{{Mafumafu}} may have a few Vocaloid compositions under his belt, but as an utaite he has more than a couple good covers: |
184 | ** His rendition of "[[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm20359879 The Lost One's Weeping]]" is powerful, and brings poor Mamoru alive with his youthful tones. |
185 | ** "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SsHD2N4iwr8 Ikanaide]]" is already sad on its own, but he somehow makes it worse with his soft but emotional vocals. Especially with the hopeless little "Don't go..." at the end. |
186 | ** "[[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm28793469 Jailbreak]]" is another good one, with his voice matching the energy of the song. |
187 | ** His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jJ5qulVq0w Chururira Churirara Daddadda]] cover brings so much energy to the already wonderful song. |
188 | ** He more than keeps up with the frenzied pace of Kemu's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AOP0Gk0QDS0 Dear Doppelgänger]]", hitting the high notes perfectly and even surpassing the energy of the original. |
189 | ** His cover of Neru's "The Disease Called Love" runs the gamut of quiet desperation and expressive shrieking vocals, with the requisite awesome mixing for the song. |
190 | ** His cover of Neru's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ5vRNfIUCg Terminating the World]]" is the first result that comes up when you search the song's official Japanese name, and for good reason; it's another expressive cover where Mafumafu gets to flaunt his vocal range. |
191 | %%* [[https://www.youtube.com/user/TheTheatreGeek12 Oktavia von Seckendorff]] is another fantastic singer who dubs songs. Her covers are amazing. |
192 | %%** [[https://youtu.be/JE8Eiu0Jv-4 Poker Face.]] |
193 | %%** [[https://youtu.be/XVuydzqDAxU Hated by life itself.]] |
194 | %%Weblinks are not examples. What's awesome about them? |
195 | %%* Wolpis Cater's covers of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQjzse23Wmg Aisowarai]] and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZG9bXa3W4fY Yoake to Hotaru]] are absolutely mind-blowing. |
196 | * Touyu is a solid utaite with a very distinctive, high-pitched voice. He can also pull off an amazing MotorMouth when needed. |
197 | ** If you're a fan of the creepiness of "Merry Bad End" by Mafumafu, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HbegQdO1ag Touyu's cover]] has got you covered. Special mention goes to the high-pitched laugh at the end. |
198 | ** His rendition of Neru's "[[https://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm23685231 The Lost One's Weeping]]" hits all the high notes effortlessly for a perfect depiction of desperation. |
199 | ** He more than keeps up with the speed in Pinnochio-p's "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=520CdixYJk0 Rotten Heresy and Chocolate]]" and "[[http://www.nicovideo.jp/watch/sm26047852 Feast of Absurdity]]", adding a playful twist as well. |
200 | * The Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra's Miku Symphony concerts consist of absolutely beautiful orchestrated covers of many popular Vocaloid songs (and even a few new ones made specifically for the concerts). For just one example of how wonderful these covers are, this incredibly epic rendition of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuS2ysV4Y_M Cendrillon]] should give an idea. |
