You know, I hadn't really thought of this, but it probably is the case. I could make a good argument for the possibility that it has happened already -- the reason the Bangles' version of "Hazy Shade of Winter" is more potent than the Simon and Garfunkel version might be because the line "carry your cup in your hand" sounds a lot like "carry a gun in your hand" when they sing it...
Okay, yeah, that's a little lame. But still, yeah, there are possibilities. All kinds of stuff like this are possible. I know for a fact that he has one song whose power is derived from its video rather than its lyrics -- and no, I won't tell you which, as it may be the core of a really cool/funny scene in an upcoming step.
And Doug already listens to J-Pop and "Engrish". Have you never listened to the background singers in "Konya wa Hurricane"?
