    1\/5 Ruins the music<\/b>
    \nby Teriyaki<\/b>
    \nHow did the planning side think up this nonsensical compilation\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6
    \nI’m not going to say I know everything about punk, but as a punk fan I can only see this as making a fool of it.
    \nIt’s blasphemy to this famous music. And I can’t help but laugh at the ridiculous cover art.<\/p>\n

    5\/5 I don’t know much about Western music but I like it<\/b>
    \nby Ukyo UP DATE<\/b><\/p>\n

    Even though so many famous songs have been covered here, someone like me who doesn’t know much about punk could still listen to all of them and think “oh, yeah, I know that song!”, so those who usually avoid Western music can rest easy.
    \nBecause of the daring arrangement of the melody and vocals, even if you’re tired of hearing them at karaoke, it’s like a whole new song.
    \nIt’s not that the vocals are interesting just because the use of anime voices makes it cute and POP[1]<\/sup>; because of the singers’ long career experience, you feel like you can hear the charm and sadness in their voices.
    \nI liked the solos “Call Me” and “Smells Like Teen Spirit”.
    \nThis might be a bad comparison, but it’s like when enka and pop music were combined to make New Music.
    \nIt might be more appreciated in the future and seen as a symbol of a new music scene; maybe we could buy it as a keepsake for then? :)<\/p>\n

    (thanks to cheese for explaining japanese to me)<\/p>\n
