Rhythm Paradise’s “Fan Club” (German version).
I’ve been looking for the French and German recordings of Rhythm Heaven’s songs since the localized version came out, and tonight Eric pointed me to |Toby7|’s YouTube account, which features French, English, and German versions of “Fan Club” 1 and 2 and “The Dazzles” 1 and 2.
Too bad this was a YouTube video, because if it were a downloadable song, I’d be able to segue into this next link hella smoothly. I can’t believe I didn’t find this, but Offworld informs us that there’s a downloadable iTunes visualizer on the Rhythm Heaven site that puts up dancing Moai, Love Lab scientists, and other characters while you listen to your music. It’s awesome that Nintendo would do something this weird to promote its game, but on the other hand, I didn’t know about it, so how much promotion really came of it?

tags / fan club / itunes / jc / rhythm heaven / rhythm paradiseThings like this just happen naturally in Japan. Occasionally, a song or score from a game will become a hit, but there hasn’t been a truly nationwide hit from a game yet. Still, this song has been used in TV commercials, and it’s really gotten popular in Japan.”
Rhythm Heaven co-producer and J-pop impresario Tsunku, talking to Wired’s Chris Kohler about the popularity of the game’s “Fan Club” song in Japan. As an example, Wired links to this performance of the song by Canaria Club’s Erina Hashiguchi and a bunch of other young girls (Tsunku, that is gross. Hire some people of working age, please!):
Look at the audience interaction! I’d love to participate in a big crowd version of a Rhythm Heaven game!
