NYPD Band playing Space Battleship Yamato theme in Macy's Parade (25 Nov 2010)

[lynxvosmia]

That's pretty cool that's what they choose to play! Odd that they feel the NY police only deserve about 5 seconds of air time. You can hear where, in the US version they would have sung 'Our Star Blazers"

[mebobbygillis]

Yeah..too bad I couldn't hear any of the music because these talentless dolts wouldn't shut their yapping ,stammering pie holes.

[KabutoHunter]

I was never less thrilled to see Spider-Man

[solidsnake2234]

@SailorCallie The announcer probably got mixed up Yamato with Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, in which case, the announcer still fails

[SailorCallie]

Dear NBC, It's "Yamato", and not Yamamoto. Signed, Me.

[zephyer21]

wtf its yamato...(ya-ma-toe) lol thats how you say it.

[DJGENEX71]

Too bad they didn't shut up so we could hear it!!!

[Zennofobic]

You know where Al Roker can shove his Yammatomatoe!!!

[wx9jess25]

what the f? yamamoto? he must be drunk!!! hehehehe....



[galloway62042009]

Space Battleship Yamamoto?! >:O

[PDXCHawk]

That...I did not expect! I'd love to know the process this song went through to get the whole group to sign off on it. Hopefully it was simply a fan amongst them impressing them with how swirling and triumphant it sounds.

[Gabriellandon]

I wish those people talking could close their mouths when something good is on!

[bleachrulez111ha]

Wow epic anti-climactic when the super hero theme and spider man sets in.

[texvindictive]

That's funny. I wonder if we will start hearing this with marching bands at college games. But it is a great tune! Does anybody have a better clip from the NYPD?

Will the NYPD play this somewhere else? I'll go!

[Appledayvideos]

lol did any of you see the horse bucking?

[naikanomtom]

Who would've thought that NYPD cops loved anime too!! Wow!!

[GetterRay]

NO WAY



[Tai013]

I now want to play this. Forever Yamoto!

[borderite88]

DAMM!!!!!!!!!!! But at least we heard something, I didn't hear anything until Mr.Roker's description.

[wetworks87]

I was looking forward to listening to Battle Ship Yamamoto and see the NYPD in Dress Blues. It's a shame they had 3 seconds too play and they talked over their performance and their marching band.

In honor of thanksgiving I give thanks to the men and women who defend this country as well as our day to day heroes of Police and Firepeople!!!

[yamiangie]

I heard them play it early this year at Japan Day, and they were very good.

it's sad they just gloss over those officers and their music and have Al butcher the name. Still better than at Japan Day the ideot MCs said they were playing the Astro Boy theme. Granted it was in the set the band was playing but really!

[basspig]

The audio is so muddled that I can't discern the melody.

[DocSane]

@basspig Yeah, well, they weren't really concerned about the music. It was all about them talking over it, before moving on to Spider-Man.

[oldgamergeek]

@DocSane I wish these holly wood types would shut up and let us hear the bands

[kenshiro69]

@oldgamergeek Hollywood?! They're in New York.

[oldgamergeek]

@kenshiro69 Hollywood types = those who make a living in front of a T.V / Movie camera and think I want to hear them babel incessantly over others. It don't matter where they are from or where they are at.

[RetroToledo]

@DocSane Sad we can't have it all the time.

[scalesofjustice0]

@basspig The 3 prong test has not been met. There is no elements existing to believe that a crime is about to be committed, has been committed, or about to be committed. There is no articulable reasonable suspision. These cops are on a fishing expedition which is against the law. There is case log on this.

[pinoi78]

I just did the Yamato salute.

[Caivr]

holy shit

[sonoNEKO]

go NYPD

[Metoollhead]

"Space battleship YamaMOto"

lol

[guardsman40k]

@Metoollhead i think he said "yamatojo"

[genredleader]

Ugh! You can barely hear it! But it's there! Too bad they didn't let us hear the whole thing like with the other bands... I wanna hear them to the whole thing! XD In anycase, way to go NYPD! You chose an awesome song to perform! :)

[TsugaruMaXX]

FUCKING. AMAZING!! <3
