A IOSYS classic Touhou MAD remixed to sound as if the singer, in this case Alice, is having difficulties with the words gets a charming visual re-remix, and has suddenly proven highly popular:
This is part of the “uro-oboe” (vague recollection) meme, where songs are edited for moe dojikko effect to appear as though the singer is charmingly having difficulty remembering the lyrics. Watching the videos, rather than reading the explanation, is likely more helpful in understanding this.
With 200,000 views in a few days, and even more on the original non-animated version, it is evidently a popular subject…
The original iconic song by IOSYS, “Marisa Stole a Terrible Thing” (the thing in question being Alice’s heart), for comparison purposes:
You’d think she’d remember that song after singing it thousands of times in as many versions of that video on the web.
I think the original name for Alice Vaguely Remembers A Major Song is Alice Forgot the Precious Lyrics.
But i guess it doesn’t really matter.
I like the videos
I do like how her puppets attempt to show her the lyric cards, but is knocked away by Suika.
i didnt even notice that the first time lol
Thanks for posting this up Artefact. J-Core MADs are the best I tell you!!! =D
