我说一个刺激的事...我本身是从事音乐制作工作.我热爱游戏.当我下到这个主题曲后发现..这个主题曲有95分的可能性不是人唱的.是有一款日本研发的人声歌唱软件做出来的..按照日语发音为标准.英文也可以.我开始下英文听的时候发现的.然后一看还一个日语版..就更加坚定自己的这个信念了....而且我2首歌仔细做了对比和听..相信大家基本也可以听的出来...这个歌曲里面的女声唱的语句每个词之间都是有间隔的.多少都有一些.而且有些连音的音色都变化很大噢~~~
我不知道会不会有人来喷我.但是这是事实.95分的可能性是做出来的.不是真人唱的...有愿意探讨此问题的可以Q我~3982028`欢迎有做音乐的朋友来探讨~~

你也太火星了，不就是初音嘛，小学生都知道了，还“搞音乐的……”回家吃烧饼去吧

很同意楼上的说法，没见识真可怕，这麽土的音乐人都有，不过初音真的好萌~~~~~

唱这个歌的人 据说一个 美日的混血女孩 名字叫aura Shigihara

*最后一句我是现在发帖时才看到的，原来没有最后一层。
我和一个朋友聊天时他说这不是初音合的，他最近也快加入葱党了…
今天一时兴起，查了下这个人，我喜欢没事考据一些东西，哈哈
网上似乎名气不大，有些网站还得用代理……

（网上的其他的资料就不查了，代理来代理去很累，有兴趣大家自己找找。）
别告诉我你不会用代理，那来个傻瓜的吧：http://www.coobai.com/

About
Laura Shigihara has been working as a freelance video game composer and sound designer since 2005. She’s created music and sound effects for over 15 published titles since then, ranging in genre from orchestral themes, to quirky uptempo boss battles, and even including songs featuring her own vocal tracks. Laura has been a fan of video game music since the days of the original 8-bit Nintendo; a time when a composer didn’t have access to high-end production materials, and as a result, had to rely solely on their creativity and talents as a composer. Looking up to these composers, one of Laura’s strengths has always been her creativity. Her music has been compared to that of Yoko Shimomura and Yasunori Mitsuda in terms of style.

Graduating from UC Berkeley with a degree in International Relations and Business, Laura decided to pursue a career in music after an unexpected detour landed her record contract offers in Japan for singing and production. Although she didn’t accept for various reasons, she still chose a music related job working as the audio director of a Japanese-American company where she created music and sound effects, and co-hosted an audio talkshow. Shortly after she began composing for game soundtracks. After completing several contracts, she decided to make it her career.

In addition to work, in her spare time Laura has been making an rpg for the PC called “The Blue Star” which she hopes to release towards the end of 2009. Laura also teaches piano to elementary school children twice a week, and occasionally plays the piano and sings at venues around her area, from Yoshi’s Jazz Club to local events. In her spare time, she enjoys baking, hiking, dancing, drawing, going on adventures, and of course games (some of her favorites include Chrono Trigger, Starcraft, Yoshi’s Island, Secret of Mana, the Megaman series, Suikoden, Street Fighter 2, Star Tropics, and many others).

译文：
    劳拉·鴫原自从2005年起，就成为了一个游戏界的自由的谱曲人和音响设计师。从那时起她已经为超过15个已出品的游戏制作了音乐和音效，包括管弦乐类的主题，多变快速的BOSS战（音乐），甚至包括一些主要是自己演唱的歌。劳拉是个电子游戏迷，自从任天堂8位主机（译者注：红白机）开始就开始了；当一个作曲家没有办法接触高端的制作材料（器件？）时，那么只能依赖他们的创造力和作为一个作曲家的天赋了。仰望这些作曲家——这是劳拉获取创造力的一种强项。按照风格来说她的音乐能和下村阳子和光田康典相媲美。
    劳拉拿到加利福尼亚大学伯克利分校国际关系与贸易学位毕业后，在一次意外的获得了日本歌唱和作品的唱片合同提供后，劳拉决定追随音乐事业。尽管她由于诸多原因使她无法接受，但是她仍旧选择一个与音乐有关的工作，一家日美合资公司的成音师，在那里她需要创造音乐和音效，联合主办声频脱口秀。不久后开始为游戏音轨谱曲。在完成一些合同后，她决定自己创一番事业。
    除了工作，在她闲暇时间，劳拉做了一个电脑上的RPG，名字叫做“The Blue Star”，她希望在2009年底前放出。劳拉也每周两次教小学生弹钢琴，她也偶尔为附近的耀西爵士俱乐部或当地的一些事件唱歌弹钢琴。在她空余时间，她喜欢烧烤、徒步旅行、跳舞、画画、冒险，当然还有游戏（她的一些最爱，比如时空之轮、星际争霸、耀西岛（译者：超级马里奥里的？）、圣剑传说、洛克人系列、幻想水浒传、街霸2、星之海洋，等等）。
