Is there any information on why Tomino and the composer of Z

>>14846451
Japan loved Neil Sedaka. Tomino asked him if he could use the song. Originally they wanted him to perform it for the show, but that fell through and they just used the msuci itself while Tomino wrote new lyrics.

Because an autistic child and hitler are going to overthrow the corrupt world government

Duuuh

Wow that is such a cool mouth, I bet it talks with a dialogue-o-matic!

>>14846459
Ok, I didn't know that Sedaka was popular in Japan. The mystery is solved now, I guess.

>>14846451
AFAIK all three Zeta songs (the two openings and the ending) were based on Sedaka's music. I think the second opening was based on a piece he never released.

>>14846489
That's true. Here's Sedakas version of the ending.

Quite the obscure topic of MSG franchise. Funny enough I will be watching MSG Zeta soon for the first time and on kissanime both the sub and dub versions of Zeta anime series uses the same Japanese opening song based off of Neil Sedaka's 'Better Days are Coming'

The song in the OP of both Sub/Dub:

I was expecting an English dubbed opening in the dubbed version of Zeta. The YT comments and discussion surrounding why Zeta did not have these Japanese songs for OP/EDs on Blu-ray releases because copyright to the original song it was based on, I guess. Sucks for U.S. physical BD releases/remasters, etc. but Sunrise probably wouldn't pay royalties for the song's usage in the U.S.

This is blowing my mind. I am very glad that instead of studying for my exam tomorrow I came into this thread.

First Zeta opening is a legit jam, the instruments are a little dated but no way you can listen to that and not tap your foot to the beat.

Richie Kotzen's Zeta covers:

Basically sounds like Chris Cornell sings Zeta.

Gaia Gear opening is Changes by Yes, that Lalah song from 0079 movie is Lizard by King Crimson

The American dub opening is legitimately better than what the Japanese got. I will stand by this opinion no matter what

>>14846497
Hey the original is pretty good. I didn't know, holy shit.

>>14848861
>that Lalah song from 0079 movie is Lizard by King Crimson
Shit, I might need to actually watch those now.

>>14846497
Would've been pretty cool to use that as the ending theme.
