Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney - Koisuru Guitar no Serenade correction/split

[Transfinite]

This page contains the lyrics for two separate songs -- the English "The Guitar's Serenade", followed by the Japanese "Koisuru Guitar no Serenade", of which the former is a localized version. Considering the title and URL of the page, only the latter should be included. The former should be moved to a new page.

@Rizuchan is this true?

Not this again. >< In short, no, there is nothing wrong with the lyrics. I wrote up an explanation for this back when I submitted it years ago, so here it is again:

This song is in the game, but it isn't actually sung. It's an instrumental with lyrics at the bottom as if the singer is singing it. Of course, in the Japanese version the lyrics are in Japanese and in the localization they're in English.

Now, just recently in Japan they released a CD at a concert with 2 vocal songs, this one and the Tonosaman theme, with actual people singing the songs. Because the song in the game is rather short, (Thankfully, because they played it a good 10 times ) for the first half of the remake the woman sings the English lyrics, the same lyrics that are from the localized version of the game, and for the second half she sings the original Japanese lyrics. Normally this would seem a bit strange, but in Japan all of the DS remakes of Gyakuten Saiban until 4 included the English localization as well as the original Japanese game, so it goes hand in hand with that. Make sense?

So in short, yes, the English lyrics are in the same song as the Japanese.

If that still doesn't make a lot of sense... here's a link to the version of the song in question, which match what is on the website (sung first in English, and then again in Japanese)
