New NA Opening Theme
Cover
We've come across another new remix of one of the Sailor Moon opening
themes, this time of the North American theme. It's from a group called
Osaka Popstar and is on their
new CD. Their homepage isn't exactly well built but you can find more
info about the CD if you look it up on iTunes.
The theme song on
their CD is only about a minute long so we're only offering a
15-second sample this
time.
It's a punk-cover of the opening, which is interesting not for the cover
of the song itself but because the band's drummer is Marky Ramone from the
Ramones. As Jon put it to me, "18-year-old J-Pop girls I understand. [But]
the drummer from the Ramones? What?"
Well, if anything it's another example of the extent to which the series
has entered American pop culture. Before long we'll be seeing it on
"Remember the 90s shows." Incidentally, stats on the iTunes page indicate
that it's the top selling song off their album, which came out in May.
