CherryBENI
Speaking of BENI, she’s popular for her series of English covers of J-pop songs.
They have a stylish vibe that works for weddings, café BGM, and just about any scene, which makes them outstanding as cover works.
Especially the choruses—the lyrics make great use of Japanese vowels while still making perfect sense in English—are incredibly satisfying to listen to.
Whoever came up with this concept is truly amazing.
KanadeBENI
Kanade is a hit love song by Sukima Switch, but BENI covered it in an English version.
It’s stylish, isn’t it? The vibe is nicely different from the Japanese original.
The backing track is full of rhythm, giving it an R&B-like finish.
Definitely give it a listen!
