I like em, hell the one is my sig is one I made. On afterthought I wish I hadn't bothered with any lyric sync, no one gets it and they're some of the worse parts of the video (especially since the only translation I could find was ummm questionable). Shoulda just made it a dance video and screw the lyrics.

The main reason I used the Japanesse version of the Kingdom Hearts theme was because I liked the music..but the lyrics would have never matched up to what I was doing..

My latest and probably my last amv used a totally Japanese song...

One of my all time favorite dramatic songs in the universe for an anime intro...

I for one, love Japanese music and we need more of them here in our amvs...

foreign language songs are a lot like instrumental peices.
In some cases you'll 'get' the lyrics, but ultimately what matters is the skill that it's put together with. Offhand I'd say http://nago.animemusicvideos.org/locald ... hp?v=16764 is a pretty good example.

konnichi wa!!
sometimes its very strange to watch an anime music video which
has foreign. lang. songs but i think its ok!^^
sometimes you dont understand the lyrics but the melody is more important ....
i made an amv with a german song..i like this song because i understand the lyrics but i dont know if i would like it if it would be in in another language (sorry my english is bad TT.TT)
For sure some of you made some amvs with jap. music!!! me too! *nyaaa*
how intressting......-.-
sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooorry TT.TT
