hehe, this was a mistake I made just after my A-Level Japanese in England. To practice my Japanese, I'd translate songs. It was the most stupid idea ever.

Ever heard an R.E.M. song? Notice how in the majority of cases, the song makes no sense (that's not out of disrespect, I really love that band).

My Japanese would be much better right now if I'd done something like translating news etc. Still, it was fun, but LadyRowena brings up a good (and for my part, nostalgic) point
