PWEI Covers artwork - JAPANESE Help me!

[payback3000]

Hi all,

Hopefully this should read 'Pop Will Eat Itself Cover Versions' In Japanese.



I know it's not as simple as that translation wise but does anyone know enough about Japanese to tell me if this is wrong?

I noticed when typesetting the PWEI bit - long bit on the right - from the obi strips, that there are lot's of similar chars with small differences....so it's a bit confusing.

Help!

If no-one else is able to help I can email an ex.

When I was doing the phonetic stuff for the babygro I used this text-to-speech site to check it pronounced ok.

Cheers for that. It currently sounds like

Potswallie Eat Itself

Version Cover

mmm...I will look at the OBI strips to see whats going on with the Pop Will part of it!

Nope, it ain't tight I'm afraid (my Jap fiance has run her beady eye over it). I'll get her to write out what it should be & scan it & post it for ya

Hi,

Cheers - I was missing a character from the Pop Will Eat Itself part - the right column. Anyhow here is a scan of the 4 obi strips i have - the PWEI bit...



And here is a crop of the CD art strip for the covers CD. The left column says 'Version Covers' when I do the phonetic translator bit...so happy with that. The PWEI bit is still muddled. I know it's not as simple as phonetics as that's not how Japanase works...it's it's own language and they have there own interpretation of phrases. Mine looks right compared to the 4 x examples but as there are so many Jap. characters...I may be using some incorrect ones in my typesetting...



Any help would be great.

For what it's worth, I think that 5th character should be ウ not ワ

Aye no problem, need any others while she's at it? (Not a bloody free for all though!)
