This is something that I’ve had filed under “I should post this someday”: Joousama Monogatari by the Japanese group Joousama, and it’s a medley of the following Queen numbers performed in Japanese:
Luckily for me, someone’s posted a YouTube video featuring Joousama Monogatari as its soundtrack (and a mish-mash of Japanese anime with a friend’s floating head occasionally keyed in). It makes it easy for me to share this strange musical gem where east meets west and things get weird:
It’s a pretty fascinating listen, especially in the spots where they’ve got to cram the extra Japanese syllables to fit a song written for English lyrics (most noticeable in We are the Champions).
If you’d like to hear a high-fidelity version, there’s one posted on eSnips.

Bwah? That's *awesome*. They even end with "God Save the Queen", played over an American flag. But the most awesome moment is definitely baldy's pink topknot waving in time to We Will Rock You.
I think that rockets right straight up to number 2 Most Jawdropping Video of all time. Which is fantastic, really, considering that number 1 is held by the untouchable Hurra Torpedo, Total Eclipse of the Heart.
"Caviar & cigarettes" has never sounded uglier. Good Lord.
