so this group took their name from the Blue Hearts' 1987 song, while a top J-POP group of the late Showa / early Heisei Japan took their name from this 1960 song . . .

2018 - 1987 = 28
1986 - 1960 = 26

from the Blue Hearts' 1987 song

...which inspired a 2005 movie about an all-girl high school band who performed the song for the Holly Festival.

This song is lovely, but nothing is more cathartic to this aging gen X'er than bopping around screaming "I am Clauuudia KISHI! Youuu are Clauuudia KISHI!"

I just love them so much; they always seem to be having so much fun.

They also did the theme song for the new HBO food show Take Out with Lisa Ling. The first episode goes into the history of a Filipino settlement in Louisiana that dates back to the 1760s.

This is absolutely adorable and I love them. If you haven't already, be sure to look up Racist, Sexist Boy.

They've taken a great step up with their writing. Performance is solid as ever.

That sounds like 1999, and I mean that as a compliment.
