Soramimi Hour (Misheard Hour) is the popular segment of the late-night TV variety program Tamori Club, hosted by legendary sunglass-wearing comedian Tamori. Soramimi Hour consists of short skits which are based on misheard lyrics submitted to the show by audience members. The skits are hilariously well made, and it\u2019s surprising to hear just how much English can sound like Japanese when sung to music.<\/p>\n

Here are some examples.<\/p>\n

Rage Against The Machine \u2013 Killing In The Name

Judas Priest \u2013 Sinner
\n\u201c..curse.
