Stuff like that.
- Can you sing a line from a song? - Really?!
Welcome to the Starlight parade... Hoshi ga furu nemurenai yoru ni...

The best one last night was Katie Perry "Teenage dream"
I think that was my best. A really good one.
I like the Gwen Stefani "Hollaback girl"
That was really good. - Fantastic.
I ain't no Hollaback girl! I ain't no Hollaback girl!
- No we haven't. - No.
Are you planning on going to karaoke?
- Next time we are in Japan - Not this time...
If you went to karaoke, which song would you sing?
I would sing something by Queen.
Maybe "Don't stop me now"...
A Disney song maybe. I love Disney songs.
Any song in particular?
From Mulan "I make a man out of you"
- In English or in German? - English. It's a better version.
Don't stop me nooow!
- Fantastic - Can we leave now? I am so nervous.
Have you ever been to karaoke?
No but we are going to go while we are here, yes.
We saw a few karaoke bars down the street.
I have done Karaoke in Vietnam.
You have traveled far!
When you go to Karaoke, what are you gonna sing?
Probably gonna be a Spice Girls or Britney Spears song.
- "Hit me baby one more time"? - I sang that in Vietnam. Was a great hit.
- How about you? - "I am turning Japanese"
I am turning Japanese, I think I am turning Japanese I really think so...
Nice. Okay. Those were all the questions. Thank you!
Lalala! Looks like most foreigners would actually sing something
from their own country when they come to karaoke in Japan.
A couple said they would sing Japanese songs because they help them learn
One person also said K-pop is her thing.
You will find lots of K-pop songs on Japanese karaoke machines!
How about you? What song would you sing if you came to Karaoke in Japan
What songs are you singing back at home on your karaoke bar, machine
wherever you are.
Let us know. Leave us a comment. Looking forward to reading them.
We have done more videos with people who have come to Japan
Be sure to check out those interviews and keep watching. Bye.
