That Nat King Cole song sung in Japanese (see below) is all well and good, but my prize for best phonetic rendition of a Japanese song goes to legendary 1940s disc jockey Jim Hawthorne and his rousing version of The Badger's Chorus of Shojoji Temple. (compare his version to the original)
If I have piqued your curiosity about this offbeat character, you can join his Facebook page (maintained by rabid Hawthorne fan Andrea) for photos and other info.
