The Star Wars Theme Song With Japanese Lyrics

by Scott Beale on January 12, 2009 · 1 comment

Here’s a video of the Star Wars theme song with Japanese lyrics as sung by Masato Shimon. AltJapan has more on the video, including a partial translation of the lyrics.

 

Of course this is reminiscent of the legendary Saturday Night Live sketch featuring Bill Murray as Nick Winter performing his lounge version of “Star Wars”.

Masato is a genius but he looks really goofy with an Afro hairstyle too!
