Best Engrish used in a Jpop song.
Jpop is kinda known for it's..uh...strange use (misuse?) of the English language. But, that's what gives it it's own quirky little flare. So what are some of your favorite misuses of the English language (better known as 'ENGRISH') in Jpop?

Here's some of mine...

- "Wacha gonna do if natty wake" (Me Love Peace! by Namie) I still have no idea what she was trying to say...the song has a reggae beat I'm thinking it might have something to do with "nappy" hair??? No idea

- "Blow and the wind makes me fly" (Whisper by Namie)

- "Destiny is shine or not?" & "It's miracle so miracle" (Kiseki by BoA)

-"My cake makes you 'Good girl' or 'bad girl' Out of control!!" (Lollipop Candy Bad Girl by Tommy Heavenly6)

I'll add some more later P.S. This isn't meant to offend anyone or any artist. It's just for fun so lighten up and add some of your favorites

Maybe my love is bigger than the Ginger bread man's vitality
- My Girlfriend by Micky Yuchun from TOHOSHINKI


It makes no sense, but I still like it~ ♥
The rest of this song is all Engrish-y~

MY FABORITES!

Smile me touch me / Don't tell a lie anymore to me / Can you look at my honey? / Cheese & Cheese & Smile! / I just love you because I feel so good / - Koda Kumi

Baby,Ring My Bell Sweet / Precious in my love / Connecting is my never land / Dear my tears / What imagine at the sky? / The heart is never end, never ever never end / Yes, every loneliness is never die / Now we stand admit contrary wind / Can I have a kindly look and heart? / can I'm satisfied? - BoA

Oh, get rock / We so hot, we so fly!!! / You're feelin' you never never lower your voice / Excuse me, Miss Mr. Mrs. Masquerade / you sexy thing like a gorgeous ring / Am I fool? / You such a selfish / Did you start to think I've got the life - Namie Amuro

Miss Muching - misono

I always be the chain / Rainbow's - sifow

Body Shake It! Body Shake It Now!! / beat time to the music / i feel the house / Don't be afraid of feeling / So baby don't let me alone / where start up? while I'm flying night / We are hurry up! / Happy enjoy enjoy　Happy & joy joy / Let's trip sweet dreaming.... - Suzuki Ami

I have been waiting for Scary night / I fell in sleep as I was playing the game / Oh baby… What's the hell !! / you will be stepped by one / It is better choose your friends! / I wanna dance in the floor! / like a melty sugar cream / Please make me feel fun! / let's go! sweet dream other side / I don't wanna live kiss someone's ass! - Tommy heavenly6

SOMETHING 'BOUT THE KISS; I can tell the kiss is the important signal to me
Get My Shinin'; Take it paradise / Someday I get my shinin', someday I meet somebody
Say the Word; Say the word, and lead me there for you, say the word and it's my dream comes true
PLEASE SMILE AGAIN; Please close to me

Hitomi Shimatani;
Sky High; I'm in your side

Ayumi Hamasaki;
glitter; Yes does believe in love
Real me; Woman could be having fun, woman could be like a nun

Koda Kumi;
LAST ANGEL; Tell me kiss me and beauty you shake / I have been telling you this that the future is in my hand / Oh peace world forget it's getting dark / Keep dance with my girl / It's real time get away get away.

Wait, no. I believe Ayu implied that a woman can go around having "fun" (if you get me) or she can be like a "nun" (if you get me).

Or something to that effect.

hmm, not necessarily in a naughty interpretation. I think she mentioned more that a girl could be a mischivious or behaved, in any kind of context you can imagine, not just about "that".
