Gumi's 'ET' in English

Now that Gumi's English "Megpoid" voicebank has been completed, it is proving to be exceptionally fine. It isn't perfect, but it's very good indeed, allowing English songs (or English language versions of songs) to be produced that have little or no need for subtitles.

This song, ET, does have (more-or-less unneeded) subtitles along with a visually stunning image of Gumi – which is far better than the usual somewhat cartoon-y images and models one usually encounters of her – and is quite remarkable.

In a very real sense, the true worldwide spread of the Vocaloids begins right here...
