It would be polite understatement to say that most of my friends do not understand my affection for such things as anime and Morning Musume. Yea, though I walk through the hallway in the shadow of Chacarron, I shall fear no evil, for kawaii art with me; Mini Strawberry Pie and fan-service comedies, they comfort me.

That said, I think this goes too far. Click on the streaming audio of track number 3.

Japanese idol singer.

The Girl from Ipanema.

In French.

Update: Track 6 is Downtown. Also in French.

Update: Track 2 is Ως αύριο, one I’d never heard before, nicely arranged in what sounds like decently-pronounced Greek. Track 8 is Amore Scusami, in Italian. She must have one helluva voice coach.
