I am rather tempted to just leave it as is without explanation...

But this is a dude that does covers of other songs using Otomatones, a Japanese electronic novelty instrument. The 'joke' being that it sounds almost like a person singing in odd beeps, while looking like a cross between Pac-man and a musical note. The little rubber mouth adding to the illusion that it's 'singing.'

This is what they look like without the little costumes and video effects:

So he's taken it to a logical step further, by... well, dressing the things up, and having them act out little parody music-videos. :rainbowkiss:

"English version" :rainbowlaugh:

I think it's funny the way that at certain points by brain was telling me, "no, those were words just now..."

On behalf of my distant relative... No.

Guess they're not a fan of the glorious Otamatone, huh?

Eh, fair enough. Jokes aside, it's one of those 'love and or hate it' instruments a la the theremin or ukulele. Not for everyone.

The instrument amuses the hell out of me, but dear god is it....ugh.

Today--er, one week ago today--you have truly earned your name.
