Hello. Can anyone explain why in this song the "R" in "sayonara" is pronounced as something more like an "L" sound? Here's a link to the official clip with the timecode (the word "sayonara" appears at 1:18 and again at 3:37) – https://youtu.be/ENcnYh79dUY?list=PLFRsBBWbUejVYYHZkIWfscPY-0USV1gzZ&t=77
BUT! At 0:53, "sayonara" is pronounced with a distinct "R" sound! By the same singer in the same song!
I tried to find an explanation myself, but I was unsuccessful. If you can help me, I'd be very grateful!
