Ulfuls vs. Cal White Boy—Who Sings It Better?

Here's the Ulfuls' music video for their hit 90s song "Banzai." If you don't know who the Ulfuls are but feel like you've heard this song on Tokyomango before, that's cuz you have. Remember this guy? He sang it perfectly in Japanese even though he's as white as snow. Which version do you like?

I love the original, the band is fucking rad and of course they get  mad props for coming up with and pioneering the song, but I kind of dig the Cal student's version a little bit more. But I'm biased. I love acoustic guitar, plus homeboy's better-lookin' than Totus Matsumoto.

It's funny, but I understand it. I mean it's not everyday that round-eye busts out with the nihongo ga. J-girls find it endearing, as they should, cause it's all for them. :)
Wait, what?
