Beh. If us foreign otakus can sing Japanese songs by memorizing the sounds 
... these guys shouldn't have a problem memorizing ONE verse. ;p

You know, I always wondered about this. Did she really forget or was it an 
"Iris act"? I mean, she's supposed to be the little girl and all that. 
OTOH, if it WAS being done in-character, it's weird that Iris would forget 
her own language.

Okamoto Maya seems under pressure but I never got the sense that the others 
were having problems.

That segment is one of the more interesting portions I've seen on the ST 
live DVDs... the other one came as a bonus on last year's summer show DVD 
... the clip where each of the seiyuu were given the first note of the song 
and they had to guess (and sing!) the song.
