By motherfucking Zeus, does anyone know if this is really her? Did she really do this?

I don't understand Japanese, but if you do then perhaps this will bring you some pain:

It sounds sped up and altered so I doubt it.

Well... I just skipped around the track a bit, but her Japanese doesn't sound awful, at least. She made an effort to get the syllables right, get that half-l half-r sound down, etc. Better than some freakish anime fan running around going "DESU DESU DESU".

A lot of American singers have done Japanese versions of their songs, or at least more than you might think. Ben Folds Five's "Song for the Dumped" pops to mind.
