Isn't super-cute "virtual idol" Miku Hatsune super-cute? She's totally cute. Also totally creepy! But not when she's singing Portal's "Still Alive" in almost unintelligible Engrish. That's mostly cute, with only a dash of creepy.

[thanks houkoholic!]

I always wondered how it'd sound if someone with Bells Palsy tried to sing Still Alive.

Now I know :)

Eh, pardon? Also what's a Virtual Idol?

A non-real one.

Generated by people unenthusiastically singing syllables into a computer.

It some sort of game where you can make it sing by putting the syllables together.

It's a (Japanese) program, a bit like Fruity Loops, I think. She comes equipped with a massive bunch of syllable sounds, so you can maker her sing pretty much anything.

Chuff-loads of them on YouTube of most songs you can think of.

I clicked play on the video and I didn't hear anything that remotely sounded like the portal song, and so I closed it. :(
