02. 【鹿乃】トゥインクル歌ってみた【なゆごろう】
• Twinkle [Kano x Nayugorou]

• Kagamine Rin original by Junky

03. 【エスペイ】アンハッピーリフレイン【歌ってみた】
• Unhappy Refrain [Espeeei]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by wowaka
• overall rank: 34. I'm kind of amazed at the choruses. What a powerful voice.

• Petenshi ga Warau Koro ni [Madotsuki]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Nashimotowe
• overall rank: 43. Title means "When Swindlers Laugh". I like Madotsuki's previous works a lot more than this cover since it seems a bit lazy/dragging, but I can't help but notice how he seems to be getting better in terms of voice control.

10. ｢シザーハンズ｣を歌いなおしてみた
• Scissorhands [Kanzentaicell]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Nem
• overall rank: 44. This is a remake of his earlier cover.

11. 『サイバーサンダーサイダー』を　歌ってみた by がんとう
• Cyber Thunder Thunder [Gantou]
• mylist
• VY1 original by EZFG
• overall rank: 46. It's my first time listening to Gantou with so much autotune like this, but I think it means he's immensely flexible with his song choices now.

12. 【おっさんすげぇ】『FREELY TOMORROW』(歌ってみた）【ver. NAL】
• FREELY TOMORROW [NAL]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Mitchie M.

• Tantei Mushimegane [Kony x Saki]
• Kony; Saki
• Kagamine Len original by BucchigiriP
• overall rank: 62. Title means "Magnifying Glass Detective". I was expecting this to be of extreme crack (I mean hey, Kony XD) but it's actually quite endearing.

15. アホの子が【東京テディベア】を歌ってみたぁぁぁ！！！
• Tokyo Teddy Bear [Samurai Man]
• mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by Neru
• overall rank: 67. I...don't know actually what happened in this song LMFAO. It's cool and really good! But somehow it seems so wrong XD..

OVERALL WEEKLY RANKING

01. 【英語で】天ノ弱【歌ってみた】
• Ama no Jaku -English version- [DC]
• mylist
• GUMI original by 164
• Title means "Heaven's Weakness". Let me tell you guys. I love this guy soooooooo much now. I first heard him in KuwagataP's CD and I haven't been disappointed ever since. This is, aside from Inakamono's, my only favorite AnJ cover. Is that enough invitation for you to listen and be amazed? My only remark here is that the irregular capitalization of the words make me wince but the rest is made of purely awesome things.

02. 【弾き語り風】ハロ／ハワユ【少年T
• Hello/How Are You [ShounenT]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Nanou/HoehoeP
• I think it's a very fitting song for ShounenT's vocal quality. Add the fact that he played the guitar for this cover's accompaniment, too. It's a cute, relaxing cover.

03. 「からくりピエロ」を歌ってみた【amu】
• Karakuri Pierrot [amu]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by 40mP
• Title means "Mechanical Clown". My favorite amu cover is his "Kasoukyoku" and his singing style here reminds me of that cover: solid, with high range--almost womanly, with just the right power and clarity. I'm amazed that he doesn't even falter at the sloping high notes at the end of the lines. Just lovely.

04. 『骸骨楽団とリリア』を歌わせて頂きました。灯油
• Gaikotsu Gakudan to Lilia [Touyu]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Tohma
• Title means "Lilia and the Skeleton Band". I can say a lot of things, but the only thing that comes to mind is that I couldn't expect anything less from Touyu. It seems to be less in power than Touyu's previous covers but DAT RANGE!

05. 愛言葉　歌ってみた【そらるfeat.ろん】
• Ai Kotoba [Soraru feat. Lon]
• Soraru; Lon
• Hatsune Miku original by DECO*27
• Title means "Words of Love". 'Kay, I'm not really fond of Soraron collabs (I prefer SoraT) probably because they use autotune all the time. This one doesn't really strike me as special, but Soraru's voice here surprisingly sounds good despite being autotuned! (Well, I guess it's because it's a Niina song?)

06. 【アリレム】ココナッツモール(rap ver.) / メトロクロス
• Coconuts Mall -rap ver- [Alilem]
• mylist
• original from Mario Kart for Wii
• I love this! I don't play Mario Kart but it sounds so fun XD.

07. 【変わらないもの】時をかけれなかったおっさんが歌ってみた【蓮】
• Kawaranai Mono [REN]
• mylist
• original from "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time".
• Title means "Unchanging Things". Again... a sad song :(. Not as sad as the ones before, but still kinda poignant. I would've wanted that he didn't use a version with voice.

08. すーぱーそに子が『Dear』を【歌っ……えなかった】
• Dear [Super Sonico]
• community
• Hatsune Miku original by 19's Sound Factory
• You might notice that this is different from the "Dear" uploaded last time. This is like the NG/mess up version of the song, I think?

09. BadBye　歌ってみた　染香
• Badbye [Senka]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by koma'n
• KEEP!

10. 俺たちのじょーじょーゆーじょー　（一人）
• Boku-tachi no Joujouyuujou [Mareyon]
• mylist
• original by Hyadain. This is a parody, somewhat, ok.

11. 【銀魂】マジサド1000%【歌ってみた】
• Maji Sado 1000% [Urata]
• mylist
• This is a parody of the song from Uta no Prince-sama using Okita from Gintama.
• Title means "Totally Sadistic 1000%". I...This song reminds me why I love Urata :D. Rocket Punch!

12. 『どえむ』を歌ってみたver綾川雪弥&がんとう
• doM [Ayakawa Yukiya x Gantou]
• Yukiya; Gantou
• Hatsune Miku original by BuriruP
• ↑28 ♥!!!

13. 【そんなふいんきで歌ってみた】バビロン【ぐるたみん】
• Babylon [Glutamine]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Tohma
• ↓01

14. 【ぱにょ】東京テディベアを歌ってみた【ビビ】
• Tokyo Teddy Bear [Panyo x Bibi]
• Panyo; Bibi
• Kagamine Rin original by Neru
• Bibi is fast becoming one of my favorite utaite. He has a really powerful voice similar to Glutamine and Touyu which I really like. In the meantime Panyo's voice is like the apex of sexiness in NND. Which is why I'm very surprised they have a collab! I didn't think it'd work but it did! And so this song is the epicness of power!voice laced with sexiness. What could go wrong??

15. 【りょーくん】「泣キ虫カレシ」を歌ってみた。【バル】
• Nakimushi Kareshi [Ryo-kun x Baru]
• Ryo-kun; Baru
• Hatsune Miku and Kagamine Len original by ChorisuP and FernandoP (Gom)

16. マジLOVE1000％コラボ新社会人ぽこたベェェェェジュプリクマー amu recog
• Maji Love 1000% [collab]
• original from Uta no Prince-sama.
• ↑20 This is a normal and parodied cover of the bandwagon song. Involves Shin Shakaijin as Ittoki, Pokota as Tokiya, Beeeeige as Ren, Purikuma as Masato, Amu as Natsuki and recog as Shou.

17. すーぱーそに子が『Dear』を【歌ってみた】
• Dear [Super Sonico]
• community
• Hatsune Miku original by 19's Sound Factory
• ↓02 Super Sonico is one of Nitro+'s mascot and is described to be a gravure model and musician in a band (guitars + vocalist). I dont' know much about Nitro+ and Super Sonico, but I think you can deduce the reason behind the sudden popularity of this cover :).

18. マジLOVE1000％　tane×アホの坂田×うらた×エアル×きー助×りもこん
• Maji Love 1000% [collab]
• original from Uta no Prince-sama.
• ↓16 This is a collaboration involving tane as Ittoki, Ahou no Sakata as Tokiya, Eal as Ren, Urata as Masato, Keysuke as Natsuki and Rimokon as Shou.

19. 武士語で「ロマンティックあげるよ」を歌ってみた【たろう16bit】
• Romantic Ageru Yo -samurai version- [Tarou]
• mylist
• original from Dragon Ball.
• ↓05

20. うたうたいのうた　うたってみた
• Utautai no Uta [Asamaru]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Nanou/HoehoeP
• Happy belated anniversary, Marutan! Asamaru always sings simply, without much effects or adlibs, and it's one of his charms. This one is no different from his other covers, sung in a straightforward way, which makes it so loopable.

21. リアルなフェイス晒せない6人がＲＥＡＬ　ＦＡＣＥ歌ってみた
• Real Face [collab]
• original by KAT-TUN
• L-lol this is a collab including Hal, Kazyu, Hosaka, TAKARA, Sonsa and YNG. I'm amused at the descriptions of each character in the blurb but anyway. I've never listened to this KAT-TUN song, I'm sorry, so I cannot compare. But it's pretty good :3

22. 「fix」を歌ってみた【わたあめ】
• fix [Wataame]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by keeno
• Wataame's voice is so beautiful. My only remark is that sometimes she sounds a bit too powerful for the song. I guess I'm too used to looping the original so I'm hoping she'd be more whispery or relaxed like the original (which is unfair to her because she has her own style). Buuuut out of all the Korean singers I know (aside from Imram, since she retired), Wataame is my favorite so it's always a pleasure listening to her songs.

23. 『モザイクロール』歌ってみた
• Mozaik Role [Madotsuki]
• mylist
• GUMI original by DECO*27
• Oh! I actually like this more than Madotsuki's cover mentioned above. It doesn't need that much power to sing this song and he delivers his lyrics in a suave but solid style.

24. 「天ノ弱」歌ってみた【あにま】
• Ama no Jaku [Anima]
• mylist
• GUMI original by 164
• It's been a while since I listened to Anima! (The last time was when I was utterly distracted by his adorably dorky dancing). I like his high voice a lot. He sounds a bit shaky, which is understandable since this is a strong, rock song, but he pulled it off.

25. 迷子ライフ歌ってみた【西沢さんP×りぶ】
• Maigo Life [Rib]
• mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by NishizawasanP
• Title means "A Stray Life". Rib ALWAYS reminds me of someone. Is it halyosy? Or...someone else I can't remember? Anyway, he's been singing some songs lately that doesn't fit his voice, but this one fits to a T, I think. He didn't sound strained or overly enthusiastic and kept it cool, despite the high parts at the refrains/chorus. I just don't like how he pins and drags his voice at the end of high lines, like he's holding back.

26. 「東京テディベア」を歌ってみた【グリリ】
• Tokyo Teddy Bear [Guriri]
• mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by Neru
• ↓04

27. 東京テディベア　歌って㋯㋟。
• Tokyo Teddy Bear [Amatsuki]
• mylist
• Kagamine Rin original by Neru
• No matter how much cool songs Amatsuki sings, he still sounds so adorable little boy to me and that is GREAT. So-sorry XD;. It's a good point. Really!

28. 【歌ってみた】マジLOVE1000% 再翻訳 -フルVer.- 【Freedel】
• Maji Love 1000% Japanese to English to Japanese full version [Freedel]
• mylist
• original from Uta no Prince-sama
• ↓10

29. 折れてないマイクでHello, Workerを歌ってみた
• Hello, Worker [Dakishimeta Tonight]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Eshi ja nai KEI
• Someone's fast XD. Ok, I've been listening to Tonighted's latest songs but nothing really caught my ~~eyes~~ ears since the songs don't seem to fit his voice. That is why AT LAST he sings something fit his style! But somehow he sings a bit loosely here. Of course, that is part of why it sounds good, but he sounded soft at the start and then sounded irregular for the rest of the song so it's botthering me a bit. Nevertheless, this song fits his voice quality to a T.

30. 「ラストエフェクト」歌ってみた【柿チョコ】
• Last Effect [Kakichoco]
• mylist
• Hatsune Miku original by Last Note.
• I think everything that needs to be said for this song, I've already said in my Kakichoco spotlight last week :).
