Can you tell me just how far I have to go To have you and your angel smile all to myself? After who knows how many night So many tears and colorful lights Can you tell me just why, why is my heart still aglow? Swallowed by pain, while the world dances in the rain I can only pray this crowd hides all these tears that fall Never endured such hopelessness Can't escape from this loneliness Swallowed by that bitter sound, Jingle Bells I can still see you standing there Blowing out that little flame A dream I chased so long, gone up in smoke Broken apart and all alone Buried deep in piles of snow, nothing but icy cold regret Sayonara, silent night You drift away, sleeping in arms that aren't mine warm and dry, so safe and happy Sayonara, holy night I'll go to bed, this loser, this lonely lump of coal just a sad-sack Santa Claus And on this eve, tell me please, will my words ring above? Sayonara ever more, Silent Love
@@MasterXeno0that’s for every English song starting at 7 and even some of the Japanese ones, as long as it doesn’t make the song sound like ai I’m ok with it
I think his performance as Kiryu is okay really, but him as Kiryu _doing karaoke_ doesn’t work for me at ALL. I mean next to Kuroda though, that’s to be expected.
@@BruhlandVideoDepot People just have incredibly High standards when it comes to dubbing beloved characters. But at the end of the day. No matter if they fit or not, They'll Never Top The OG VA. Takaya will always be the true Kiryu.
@@drew2031 It's nice to have Eng Dub as an accessibility option or comfort option but I think Yakuza games should be played in Japanese dub in the first playthrough for the full experience. I love every Yakuza Eng dub so far (well, except OG Y1) but I wouldn't play it in my first experience of the game.
@@BruhlandVideoDepot ah. Well since judgement and 7 I always started with english dub for my first playthrough. Not cuz I dont like the japanese dub, hell no. I just like playing a yakuza game dubbed. Plus these dub actors are really good. Specifically Ichiban's english va
@@BruhlandVideoDepot true I bet 9/10 of those people complaining were going to Japanese dub anyways Honestly in my opinion Yong sounds too young to voice older Kiryu his voice would work better with a younger Kiryu like in Yakuza 0/kiwami But at the end of the day, this isn't that big of a deal
Its sad that people are so judgmental of this voice, when I think it actually works well. Again, you guys try voice acting a fan favorite character and see how people react afterwards.
@@BruhlandVideoDepot Plus, what if Kuroda approved and actually liked this decision? People need to understand that voices change. Plus, this is the first time Kiryu got a new English voice, so it just needs time to get use to. It goes the same for persona 3 reload.
Not only that, but that's how voice actors start off. If people give them crap for it, then don't expect new voice actors. Its part of life for changes to be made
I instatly feel bored when he sings anything except like a butterfly so no he is not good but if you like him great other than that he isnt risking enought no long sillibles no character and no fantasy and creativity like kuroda I would say maybe play story but in minigames like this instantly turn jp dub and dont bother lyrics are good but other than that its boring becouse autocorect
Just to really make sure anyone else wondering the same thing understands why the lyrics had to be different, here's an example: The first two lines, Romanized: Dore dake fukaku aishitara Ore ni furimuitekureru no kai -- The beat for that part is: DadadaDA, dadada-DA~ da da DA~ Dada-dada da da da dada-dadada~ -- Now, the lyrics from Gaiden and then the direct translation of the original Japanese: Can you tell me just how far I have to go To have you and your angel smile all to myself? How much deeper must I love you For you to look back towards me -- Trying to fit the latter, translated lyrics into that beat sounds terrible any way you slice it. You can do it just like you can cram just about anything into a beat if you really try, but it'll sound terrible. Instead they had a songwriter look at the original lyrics, the translation, and come up with something that both fits the mood of the original composition and at least sounds somewhat pleasant.

I got this stuck in my head and needed that damned itch scratched. This has been on repeat for the last hour, and I don't want to stop listening.
See what happens when they don’t go heavy on auto tune? It’s a masterpiece
Can you tell me just how far I have to go
To have you and your angel smile all to myself?
After who knows how many night
So many tears and colorful lights
Can you tell me just why, why is my heart still aglow?
Swallowed by pain, while the world dances in the rain
I can only pray this crowd hides all these tears that fall
Never endured such hopelessness
Can't escape from this loneliness
Swallowed by that bitter sound, Jingle Bells
I can still see you standing there
Blowing out that little flame
A dream I chased so long, gone up in smoke
Broken apart and all alone
Buried deep in piles of snow, nothing but icy cold regret
Sayonara, silent night
You drift away, sleeping in arms that aren't mine warm and dry, so safe and happy
Sayonara, holy night
I'll go to bed, this loser, this lonely lump of coal just a sad-sack Santa Claus
And on this eve, tell me please, will my words ring above?
Sayonara ever more, Silent Love
Compared to his performance on Judgement, he's actually getting better, seems like he's giving in to the feedback.
Good job, Mr.Yea
fogd be a pofád

@@deigell6456😮
It's not as bad, but you can still hear the autotune 💀💀

I love this song
He kinda sounds country 😭
Honestly Yong does a good kiryu. yeah he aint Daryyl or Takaya. but I'm fine with this Kiryu voice.
Same. He does a great job.

Yeah, Kuroda is an iconic voice actor, no one could replace him, Yong had so much pressure on him but he delivered an acceptable performance imo.
@@BruhlandVideoDepot Plus, what if Kuroda approved and actually liked this decision? People need to understand that voices change. Plus, this is the first time Kiryu got a new English voice, so it just needs time to get use to. It goes the same for persona 3 reload.

Kurada and the old Eng Kiryu voice actor both said they strongly approve Yong.
*Cries and sniffs* THAT WAS BEAUTIFUL
Great vid
To be honest, I think it's ok for him to become kiryu's English va
Yeah, I got used to it too. I don't mind him at all.
Thoughts on the English va?
I like it. Was there better options? Yes. But it is what it is.
@@BruhlandVideoDepot he getting better
Yeah, I overall like his performance.
I instatly feel bored when he sings anything except like a butterfly so no he is not good but if you like him great
other than that he isnt risking enought no long sillibles no character and no fantasy and creativity like kuroda
I would say maybe play story but in minigames like this instantly turn jp dub and dont bother lyrics are good but other than that its boring becouse autocorect
@matejmatuska6700 because your not giving him a chance
Over 1k views… 800 of them gotta be from me 😭
This songs a guilty pleasure for me, Yong Yea honestly cooked
Glad you enjoyed
He's fine.
This one is better, as you can’t hear the autotune so much as in judgement
Me when Joryu tells me to lend him my rear:
🤨🤨🤨🤨
Idk want to say is this good or not
Not, it's definitely not
Its aight, definitely aight.
hes fine
Power ballad without power. Like a tiger drop after 10 years in the joint.
Why did they change the lyrics, like, completely???
Making a translated song singable when the languages are very different is a though job...
Because it has to actually fit the melody and rhythm, and a direct translation wouldn't even stay on beat due to difference in word length.
Just to really make sure anyone else wondering the same thing understands why the lyrics had to be different, here's an example:
The first two lines, Romanized:
Dore dake fukaku aishitara
Ore ni furimuitekureru no kai
--
The beat for that part is:
DadadaDA, dadada-DA~ da da DA~
Dada-dada da da da dada-dadada~
--
Now, the lyrics from Gaiden and then the direct translation of the original Japanese:
Can you tell me just how far I have to go
To have you and your angel smile all to myself?
How much deeper must I love you
For you to look back towards me
--
Trying to fit the latter, translated lyrics into that beat sounds terrible any way you slice it. You can do it just like you can cram just about anything into a beat if you really try, but it'll sound terrible. Instead they had a songwriter look at the original lyrics, the translation, and come up with something that both fits the mood of the original composition and at least sounds somewhat pleasant.
Yong Yea is growing in me but I can't help but feel like his performance is so flat.
