After watching the Wii launch videos, Minh asked me if the guy interviewing people for Joystiq was from Control-Alt-Chicken. I had no idea what she was talking about so I used Google to find that Control-Alt-Chicken is a geek cooking show that’s part of Revision3, a new video project by the creators of Digg.
I checked out the latest episode (Crab Cakes!) and immediately recognised the opening song as Linda Linda by The Blue Hearts as featured in the videogames Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan (a recent purchase by Jason).
I remembered seeing a page with links to all the Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan songs on Cracked Rabbit Gaming, but the Linda Linda video they link to has been removed. I searched YouTube for another one, and came across this cover by Japanese school girl band Paranmaum from the movie Linda Linda Linda.
It looked pretty good and is billed by Steven Venn on its IMDB page as:
What Josie and The Pussycats should have been.
Well, I liked Josie and The Pussycats, and if this is even better, I want to see it. So… has anyone seen Linda Linda Linda?
