Yongfook sings, too
I’m pretty sure that none of the readers of yongfook.com are aware of my massive hard-on for singing showtunes and Disney numbers, due to the fact that my sole audience for that kind of thing is usually just my car dashboard as I sit in traffic. But today I put an end to this dark, dark secret, not only because, well, I just fricking told everyone, but also because myself and a friend who shares similar passions have put together a little track that you might recognise.
This was done via the internet (since she lives in the States) by her sending me a vocals track and me mixing it with a backing track and laying my own vocals down over the top, so forgive the little timing discrepancies etc. So without further prattle, prepare your minds to be imploded by humility as you bear witness to the biblical awesomeness of me and my singing partner, the lovely and talented Robyn. The track is…well…listen for yourself.

Jon & Robyn duet
why. oh god why.
Hah! I’m gonna go do something heterosexual after listening to that like masturbating to a combination of “The Little Mermaid” and “Ultimate Car Crashes 7″.
I just hope the gargantuan size of your testicles from telling everyone that you sing disney tunes counteracts the ball-shrinking effects that listening to disney tunes actually causes.
I waited and waited for the lyrics to be changed, and for there to be a phrase like “face cock”. Now I’m not only disappointed, but also hurt by the fact I bothered to listen. I’ll have to listen to The Little Mermaid OST and replace every occurrence of the word “sea” with “jizz” to get over it.
It’s ok, whilst singing I was throwing rocks at baby seals so I’m still a man.
she’s got a really beautiful singing voice!
yours is, umm, nice too… tell me, how hard did you have to squeeze your nuts to be able to hit those high notes?!
Wow. I have new visuals to work off of as I listen to the track again. Thanks, yongfook.
MY EARS! MY EARS!!
i like the duo-via-internet idea. and i respect your strange in-car-activities, for you being a comedian-trash-pop-idol, who must have a distinctive and irritating dark side as a source of humorous contradiction. you must admit, that people could supect you to be gay. but there might be worse things. a weasel-shaped nose, for example.
I just screamed really loudly to get the residue of that song out of my brain.
Btt i wonder Sir Jon, you have the attractiveness of the breathy boy band flavour in your voice. Interested in starting a new band? Perhaps you can call the band Backhole Boys. I see potential!!!
You really strained that accent mr Fook.
Argh. ARGH. I’m gonna have to listen to a days HardRave to get rid of that, you bastard.
I am crying, this is so touching.
this really is an all-new low for you, neither high quality nor funny/entertaining. maybe bounce your ideas off a few trusted friends sometimes before uploading them to the site.
or perhaps the genius of it is that this illustrates that you too are human and really really suck sometimes like the rest of us. point well taken.
i was very surprised with the outcome… you guys both have amazing voices. would you ever consider making a video of a behind-the-scenes look of how you compose your music?
I’m shocked. Kinda disappoints me to see what a heartless bunch of cunts I have reading this website. Don’t worry, won’t fucking bother next time.
I think we jest because we love. In that sort of awesome “turtle-power” sort of love, not the I want to bone you while you sing disney tunes sort. In other words, yea we’ll laugh at whatever you put up for us (do you expect to find a classy bunch reading a site about a human punishing his body with various foodstuffs?)
Thanks for making me laugh when the 14 year old goth girl inside me just wants to cry.
You ate a 14 year old goth girl? Once I ate some soap.
Hey, I thought it was quite nice… Anyway I do love Disney’s songs as well and my fave is Part of Your World hahaha.
GOOD TEENAGERS–
Under the guise of a sweet children’s tune, Jon, like Disney, is attempting to undermine and eradicate basic morals–BY BACKWARDS MASKING OBSCENE MESSAGES INSIDE SEEMINGLY HARMLESS CHILDREN’S MEDIA
Consider this: www.fuzzychi.com/steamedrolls.mp3 –a care free “Soaring tumbling freewheeling”….or when reversed and slowed down—-is the singer casually inviting us to “feel” her “steamed rolls”?!!!-you decide!!!!
My girlfriend has a secret desire to be Belle and has told me on numerous occasions that she wants to work in disneyland. Needless to say I dumped her on each one of those occasions. I think the comments here show that people dont want honesty on the internet¤ they want an insta-joke-o-matic monkey-tron-blog-make-doer. I for one would like to see ben’s website.
well, the thing is, youre the only good thing in my life; indeed, my very heartbeat. so when you slip up a little bit my world is in shambles and i do anything i can to set it right again. this includes typical “asian parent” verbal abuse and negative reinforcement, which makes stellar children who are outwardly successful, but are powered by a soul-corroding inferiority complex.
we all show our love in different ways.
i hope us thoughtless cads haven’t truly offended your delicate sensitivities because i would really like it if you would sing “I Feel Pretty” from West Side Story. i just have this feeling that this song is perfect for you.
If you’re going to take requests, any chance of some Wizard of Oz numbers? =)
I thought it was great. You both have great vocals.
hey, you could sing a few monty-python-songs. that would be very big. if you’re starting to feel like a juke-box: watch out! people could start inserting coins into you…
wow… a nice surprise :)
would really like it if you would sing “I Feel Pretty� from West Side Story.
For some inexplicable reason, I second that.
And don’t worry about being funny all the time Mr Fook, this’s a blog remember? They don’t have to be funny. You blogger.
robyn has a lovely voice! i’d like to hear more tracks from her. meanwhile i’d would like to hear some of your violin-playing!
and is it just me, or are the lyrics of A Whole New World chockful of sexual innuendo? am surprised nobody hasn’t picked up on that in this comment thread…. ‘over sideways and under’…
And don’t worry about being funny all the time Mr Fook, this’s a blog remember? They don’t have to be funny. You blogger.
It’s definitely a blog. It says so in the page title. Twice, at present. Proof positive. Yes.
I’m still alarmed by the song and the quality of your singing, but managed not to clean my ears with a soldering iron as I was afraid I might do. Hurrah!
Your voice is good!!
To tell you the truth… I was shock… especially when u said it was via the internet.. because it was good.. both of you guys have nice voice… Both of you are talented.. Jon, you are not the first guy I know that listen/sing to Disney songs… I actually love Disney songs…. esp. the song that you sang with Robyn, A Whole New World…
Surreal!
hey Jon, you have to admit, when you put stuff like that up there, you have to expect a certain amount of ribbing. Just grab your balls and ignore it.
that was pretty good. and you guys sound a frightening lot like aladdin and jasmine from the disney song. dont feel bad, im nearly 20 i still sing that song everytime at karaoke.
the rest of you, shut the fuck up ]:
its soo not you is it?!
You and Robyn have very good voices! Very nicely done. A bit of constructive criticism here: Jon, your vibrato was a bit too strong and you needed to project a little more. But other than that, it was a pleasure to listen to!
As for you wankers who are freaked that OMGWTFBBQYONGFOOKSANGASSMONKEY, I’d like to see any of you do better.
‘under the sea’ — best disney song ever…and i mean that in the manliest way possible.
i read the comments before listening to the track and I was expecting really high-clutch-your-groin kinda vocals. But it was good what! Seriously, all those I CAN’T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT comments. You guys do sound great.
The best Disney song is “The Siamese Cat Song”. Second place goes to either “Les Poisson” from The Little Mermaid or “I Wanna Be Like You” from Jungle Book.
I third the singing of “I Feel Pretty” from West Side Story. That’d rock!
hey that’s excellent! also, the cartoon at the top is priceless :p
YF, you are like those people who say they are so terrible before going into a karaoke bar. So I think, “Great! Some entertainment tonight at the karaoke bar!” But instead you’re just a big fat liar because you CAN sing and so I am forced to listen to boring, well-sung but not-quite-like-the-original singing. Ye gawds, you even had some dynamics in there. What has happened to all the truly terrible singers in this world? WHERE ARE YOU??!!! WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS WHOLE NEW WORLD??!!? BWAHAHAHA….
I also enjoy singing Disney songs. Sometimes in public situations. Like at work.
Awesome dude. Simply awesome yet ghey at the same time.
That was great. It’s one of my favourite I’m-being-ironic-but-I-actually-love-it karaoke songs, only I’ve dropped the pretence. btw, do you manage to get to Kumamoto-shi very often?
HAHA Fuckin gay,but neat at the same time. Can cheryl sing? hahah
Cheryl and I broke up in October 2004. Keep up.
hey i’m sick of these ppl bashing u and ur gayness
ur part was fine.. imo it was robyn that sounded like a chipmunk + echo…
yeah tact on the internet is overrated…
but i guess all that matters is that YOU like her voice on the track, and i’m sure u do… i saw the scorpion pic… ahem, bestiality eh..
Good job
I have yet to listen to this.
But my GOD Fook. You fucking MORN.
the 2 of you sounded quite nice together on the track =) i love showtunes and disney songs too, i find that most of them are better than silly bubblegum pop crap
You’re building up your gay fan base nicely with stuff like this…
BTW The girl has a very nice voice.
Bravo! This is very pleasing to the ear. Her angelic voice and his whispery voice. They harmonize in feeling. Thank you for giving us a good time.
so its not a real job you’re coming to tokyo for… its to pursue your dreams in the cutthroat, mouse eat mouse world of tokyo Disney Sea (incidently i think they’re still hiring …)
hideous!!!!!! Could you not have picked another song?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Now I’ve listened to it.
You’re not just a fucking MORN.
You’ve just lost the last of shred of credibility your EDITED
Note from Yongfook: I’d rather not have to edit comments, but if people aren’t going to get over my past and keep bringing stuff up about Cheryl, I’m going to have to. Let me tell all of you now that PLENTY of my relationships have ended in tiny, tiny shattered pieces and it’s usually been down to me for whatever reason. This is because I am a total fucking bastard. Why a small minority of you cannot just happily accept that and continue to read my amusing food reviews without getting your cunts all twisted up I will probably never understand. However, nobody is championing the cause of all my other ex girlfriends and I don’t see why Cheryl should get special treatment. It’s over. It’s been over for 8 fucking months! She is in another relationship now, with a nicer, bigger-cocked, richer and more Irish guy than me now, so can we please all sit back and say “the girl done good” and stop bringing this shit up over and over again like some kind of internet gossip-chewing bovine. Cheers.
Woah, this is like a Angela Blursotong flashback.
Wow, Jon! I am pleasantly surprised at this presentation of voice and interest in Disney! I was initially skeptical and would never have imagined you doing this I but really enjoyed listening to it; you have singing capability that a lot of people surely don’t have and now I like you even more, haha ;P. Tanpopo was great too; crystal clear voice. Not easy to do when internet folk like to shred honesty to pieces and joke things to death.
Piss, if I sound like a chipmunk, fantastic. They have long, profitable music careers.
not bad… take care and hope to see you soon… (during X’mas or CNY or whenever in between)
i have only one word: Splendid
Hey it sounds good to me… you’ve got a nice voice. You should try to use that talent in another type of music maybe!?
hey nice! seriously! kudos to you!
Some people are losers. :) I think you both have lovely voices. (although I was a little surpsised about your hard on for show tunes) BRAVO!
My, what a lovely union of voices, songs like this make me cringe but you’ve proved your point, u can sing!
I don’t care what the others say! That was GREAT :) But then again, I am biased, because “A Whole New World” is one of my all-time favorite Disney songs.
You have a wonderful voice.
whats wrong with disney songs. i bet everyone listened to them when they were younger! i love disney songs don’t worry your singing is nice! i almost thought that you uploaded the original song until i heard the back part which sounded different from the original. maybe you can do under da sea nex time :)
Good. Makes me want to post my singing in Japanese. Dreadfully embarrassing, but deep down I know I’m at least as talented as you. I won a Singapore Ayumi Hamasaki fansite singing contest… man, this is embarrassing. Wish I could get up a readership like yours, but my blog sucks.
hEeEeEe!?? yoonfooksan kakko yokute , utau no umai da yo…
Speaking of Angela, does anyone know where her blog went and why?
singapore…. ayumi hamasaki….. singing
3 things you DON’T want to put together
ayumi doesnt sing… she just whines into the mic. if it wasn’t for good lyrics and good production staff… she’d be a nobody… AND THOS BIG ASS EYES
singapore should jus rename their country to wannabejapanapore
omg, that’s exactly the type of thing that i’ve been wanting to do. What programs/techniques did u use to make this?
   whoa
the visualisation aspect from my windows media player just topped that off. all those swirling colours in sync with those heavenly voices
if i’d copy it Jon, you’d kill my face right
I LOVE IT!! It’s sooooo GOOD I did not pay much attention to the lyrics.. Amazing voices, no doubts!! Sounds like Disney on the ice!!~~ Good Job!!!!
I, personally, think you have quite a nice voice. Though, I was expecting some lewd remix of a disney song. But I could hardly tell the difference between the movie track and yours.
Wha………I, ……’buh?’…….Are you going to San Francisco?
really gd attempt… and your friend really has a beautiful voice
I hate disney movies, but for you I listened to exactly 20 seconds of your duet…It was good, really suprisingly good…but I just can’t take Disney-it makes me cringe and wish I had died a thousand deaths.
Well, I sing along to this song too. You two should try, ‘I finally found someone’ (duet with Barbara Streisand and Bryan Adams).
You guys are awesome. Your voice is really soothing, and Robyn definitely has some considerable talent. Finally I can learn this song!! (:
I’m probably just repeating what other people said, but I’m trying to counteract the negative feedback. I thought both your singing was pretty good. True, it would have been funnier if you had changed the lyrics so they were more vulgar, which the picture at the top had sorta led me to believe. But if you just wanted to sing, that’s cool. Don’t let a few idiots bring you down. Who knows what they do behind closed doors? Dance around in tutus to Britney Spears music? Watch child porn? I wouldn’t be surprised. There will always be assholes, especially on the internet. They’ll say whatever the hell makes them feel special since no one can do much about it and no one sees their sorry faces. If you were to sing again, I’m sure there are people here who would support you.
Wow, Yongfook, you have a nice, soothing Disney voice (and you may now commence castrating yourself). But it’s okay, everyone likes Disney tunes. And that Robyn’s is zomg good. i might be forced to create a Karaoke genre on my iPod. Ugh, thanks.
actually, the funniest part is when you say, “Hold your breath, it gets better”. How can you lie to that girl like that??
Kinda scary.. Grown men singing.. Hmm… I’m not sure whether i’m turned on or maybe tuned off….
the link is broken for this one?
I’ve heard the song and have actually stumbled into here quite innocently… through the ginger candy insert. Just starting to go through your area. Actually wondering, are you into stuff like kick boxing?
I think the link is broken. Can’t hear a thing.
fixed.
Gosh darn-there’s nothing you can do that I don’t find a complete TURN ON. You have a great voice and I’m sick and tired of all your f***ing talent!can’t you suck at something? Jon-you have a golden touch-continued success at all you do. cheers C
When you say “show tunes”, are you referring to “Broadway” Show Tunes? I love them-especially the really old ones from the ’20s thru ’60s. Are you familiar w/ any of these? C
Nice vocals.
Hahahaha… sounds good.
thanks!
Found you off digg, and just chiming in to say I went to highschool with Robyn. There it is, my brush with fame.
