I don't watch Star Wars, but this adaptation of the movie's theme song in Japanese is silly enough that even I can appreciate it. The guy in the afro is the singer/songwriter, and the music video is being introduced on a variety TV show.

In 2008, Chronicle published my book: Urawaza: Secret Everyday Tips and Tricks from Japan.
I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!

What's this show called? I can't remember. Something like, Hey Trivia, or something like that. Don't they also give the winner some weird brain award at the end? It's different.

It was "Trivia no Izumi" I think. They actually showed it on Spike for a very short run. My wife and I "tape" it on our PC in Japan when we can and send it to our PC over here. Haven't seen it in a while, but you can catch a lot of it on YouTube.
