Not sure if trolling, but just in case, a bunch of the music from Zeta Gundam, and maybe some others were based on his work. That's why they didn't used the original titles for the English dub, because of licensing bullshit.

I never forget the light from that blue star above.

And yet, oddly, when they broadcast The Origin TV recut in the US, they used a cover of Mizu no Hoshi e Ai wo Komete just fine

The rights holders probably care less about covers.

>>23765862
>The rights holders probably care less about covers.
The original version IS a cover. Seems odd that they'd care about that and not the newer cover

>>23765851
Origin had a bigger budget, maybe they just paid to get the copyright all sorted out.

>>23765851
I suppose it's just that the cost of licensing it for 13 episodes of The Origin Vs 50 episodes of Z

>>23765864
>The original version IS a cover.
It isn't.

It is. It's just that, in the case of Mizu no Hoshi, the original English version was never recorded

>>23765965
It's not a cover you dumb fucking retard.

>>23765967
Well then, how do you define a 'cover'? Because, to me, the Zeta OPs and ED are quite clearly covers

Where can I find a recording of the song that got used as the basis for From The Blue Planet With Love?

>>23765986
It was never recorded in English

>>23765990
And this matters why?

>>23765992
Because you're never going to find the original if it was never fucking recorded, you retard

Does this mean his songs will finally be allowed on releases of Zeta outside Japan?

>>23766007
Depends. Depends on whether
A) His estate wants a lot of money to licence those songs
and
B) Whether Bandai are willing to actually pay to licence the songs
And there a potentially interesting factor in >>23765851, in that the rights issues MAY have already been sorted

RIP
He was never 'cool', but he was always a top tier pop composer https://youtu.be/qMxi8cJEFV0

>>23766027
I remember reading a YouTube comment that a gundam fan had asked him about the song and he said he had no problem with it being released

>>23766007
In 71 years after the copyrights expire.

>>23766089
I’ve always thought about asking if there’d ever be an English release of “For Us to Decide,” the never-recorded song that became Zeta’s 2nd opening.

>>23766264
Maybe if there's a rough demo or the lyrics somewhere.

I guess it was always just a matter of Sunrise not wanting to pay the rights to use the song for Zeta outside Japan since they never expected it to be shown anywhere else. For The Origin, they likely got international rights from the very start.

Rest in peace.

I loved his music, RIP indeed.

>>23767040
Probably. The reason a lot of older, American, TV shows have licensing issues and have to have popular music replaced is because they didn't really foresee the advent of home media and so the contracts really only licensed them to use certain songs on TV broadcasts and reruns.

This is along the same line, really. Anime didn't really get exported to the West in vast quantities until about the 90s so I doubt they anticipated needing to licence Neil Sedaka's themes for outside of Asia.

I wonder what 2chan has/had to say about this. Anyone got the link to that site that sustains their expired threads for a couple of days?

>>23768771
The US record label industry is one of the most notoriously litigious cabals of copyright barrators extant.

I am dismayed by the lack of responses this thread has received.

Shartyfags killed the site and doxxed the mods
And some of us took shelter in hotwheels' cave (R.I.P.) and quite a few just decided to stay there.

Circumstances took me out of the loop for quite a while.

I don't know who that is. And why would they do that?
>And some of us took shelter in hotwheels' cave (R.I.P.) and quite a few just decided to stay there.
I don't know who/where that is either. And why stay there if it's dead? Or are you saying they died with it?

>>23787577
Why do you care about things you know nothing about and have no stakes in?

>>23787585
If it was worth mentioning then it must be worth knowing about.

>>23787577
>I don't know who that is. And why would they do that?
Sharty is a cesspool where they just post wojacks, pepes and incelcore shit
They did it for shits and giggles
>I don't know who/where that is either
8ch is just another forum, very infamous for the name since the original had school shooters
Hotwheels was it's creator died recently
>And why stay there if it's dead?

It ain't dead, just slow like /m/ itself.
