No joke, it's Portal's 'Still Alive' in Japanese
Nearly every fanboy knows about Portal's hit song "Still Alive". A Jonathan Coulton original song performed by Aperture Science's artificial intelligence GLaDOS that has been so popular, it made its way onto Rock Band. Well, now Japanese and not so Japanese Portal fans can experience "Still Alive" a new way, translated into Japanese and sung by Hatsune Miku, a character voice that's included as part of the Vocaloid software package. What more can we say? It's "Still Alive", it's Japanese, it's odd and it's hella' entertaining.

I love the Hatsune Miku 'Levan Polkka' song and I still think it's cooler, but this pretty sweet too. :)

i'm sorry but "Ah-Pa-Cha Science"? Really it's like an extreme asian stereotype.

a pa cha (アパチャ) is converting the word into katakana...that's not stereotyping.

Now if we could combine the Japanese version of the song with the really cool video created by the VG Cats creator.
That would truly be the icing on the cake! Well if the cake wasn't a lie, though :)
