Oh shit, for reals?

I gotta admit it’s not one of their better songs. I think they were going for anime level of quirky with it but overshot into unbearably bizarre.

Mild surprise still counts.

Nice

You didn't know that?

It is surprising that a fish can write without fingers, yes.

Not written, just performed. The guy who wrote the song was the CEO of Tokyopop (the company that got the license): Stuart Levy, or "DJ Milky" as he was credited under.

Wait seriously?

Did not know that, thanks for sharing

Bowling For Soup did a cover of a Flock Of Seagulls song for the short lived 4kids dub of Saint Seiya. I don't know what the people doing early 00s anime dubs were on, but they should share some of it with the rest of the world.

I listen to a lot of bowling for soup and heard this version quite a bit, I didn't know it was used for an anime opening

Oh hell yeah, I knew of it through Knights of the Zodiac first, but they just released it on a regular album and you could easily just never know what it was made for, especially since this dub lasted for, like, a single story arc.

It was DiC that did this, not 4Kids.

I wish the rest of the lost dic dub saint seiya knights of the zodiac episodes were found 😢

I remember hearing that somewhere, now to listen to it for nostalgia.

Simple Plan preformed the title song for What’s New Scobby Doo? and Bowling for Soup did the title song for Phineas and Ferb

Every time I learn something about Reel Big Fish they get cooler and cooler. I was already a fan, but how did I not know this?
