Good work! You picked one my favorite songs! 永遠って言葉sounded like えいえ~えことは~, which won't mean much.

Stephanie that was a really nice video! I was very impressed by the way you played the piano (yourself!) in the first part! The swinging and singing was also very creative~ I felt you put a lot of your emotions into the song, it was a very strong performance! :D

Fine piano work, a nice vocal quality and tone, though it can get too breathy at times. Your higher range is inconsistent - sometimes it's dead on, and other times you come in a little flat. Make sure you have enough breath to really let fly on those notes, and that you're not constricting your face or throat. On the whole, very good work.

I love love LOVE your choice of song, and you pulled it off very nicely! :3

WOW YOU WERE TERRIBLE. WHAT IS A UNIVERSITY STUDENT DOING IN A HIGH SCHOOL CONTEST?

What a hateful thing to say. I think she did a really good job. The beginning was a little shaky, but really, a good job.

The contest is for students of any Japanese class, high school or university. A lot of high schools just don't have Japanese programs, so for some people college is their first opportunity to take it.

Great video! And wonderful piano playing! :D Good luck!
