There is the punk version by Osaka Popstar. That song is damned hard to find for some reason. I made a vid clip a few years ago, the vid sucks but it's the only version of the song I have:

Check it out[/QUOTE]

THAT IS AWESOME!! :w00t: Thanks :D

Ah that's very cool, :-D well I do have have guitar, so I'm not very good playing it, but I do play the hammocks (not sure I spelled right) maybe I should try and practices to do the Astro boy theme on it. XD
It could happen. Oh yeah I've no banjo, but a guitar is pretty simpler.

I just found a guy who can play the Astro Boy theme on the banjo...along with other band members in a Japanese bluegrass group.

I think this is one of my favorite covers of the Astro Boy theme now.

OMG a Japanese C&W group! I loved the mandolin part. I should paste the music on top of the opening of the "Westword Ho!" episode :lol:

BTW, you can find a lot of good stuff searching on Youtube for 鉄腕アトム
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwTqbtPApkQ I want a copy of that LP!)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZ_r2cqMAwI WOW!
This one is even better! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAoAFsbVKo8
And yet another version of the theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ft0je5ZV9M (Only in Japan).

Still have yet to find it played on a pipe organ or a Theremin!

I do that every now and then. In fact, I found that bluegrass cover of the Astro Boy cover because I searched "鉄腕アトム" on YouTube.

It's interesting the stuff you can find on there. Lots of obscure stuff and cool covers like the one I just posted.

You play violin? Wow, that's a hard instrument to play. Ever try the theremin?
