Actually, it is pronounced Gigawatts. Take it from me, I'm an electrical engineer. :) Plus, think about this: you pronounce GHz as gigahertz, not jigahertz.
@kidowner Yeah i would have to agree, zemickis told Loyd to say it that way because the technical adviser said it that way, could've been an accent causing a communication error
@kidowner Listen. I wrote this song back in 2005. It's Jigowatts. There's a behind the scenes documentary for the movie. There's a part where they talk about the difference how they say the name. It's 100 percent most definitely Jigowatts. I'm a huge BTTF fan and it's obvious since I wrote this song. It maybe be giggawatts in actual life, but seriously in this movie, it's jigowatts. they don't say giggawatts in the movie
Actually, the way they pronounce it in the movie is as correct as the way we pronounce it is. By the time they were filming this movie the science community hadnt come to a conclusion wheter it should be pronounced jigga or giga. The spelling though has always been the same.
Being a musician and a huge fan of BTTF, i would have to say this is some of the worst music i've ever heard in my entire life. Your portrayal of any character in the this film is atrocious. I find this song to be very offensive and disrespectful to those who spent countless hours creating the film, and to people all over the world who live, breath and sleep music. If your gonna waste time with terrible music, don't put it on youtube so people searching for BTTF don't stumble across this garbage
We made this when we were younger and someone made a video. i mean we were 15. If you seriously don't like it, whatever. When marty and the mcflys were a band, we were 15 years old. So, whatever. It was a rough demo recorded in a basement. Who cares? Just if you've got something negative to say about a fun thing we thought wed do the just leave it alone
The amount of arrogance in this post is outstripped only by its complete ignorance of the context it's in. This is a bit like criticizing the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for not talking more about social issues: that's because it's not SUPPOSED to.
It's incredibly presumptuous to actually be offended on behalf of the actors in BTTF, and I DOUBT this is some of the worst (nice hedging there with the word "some", btw) music you've ever heard in your entire life if, as you say, you're a musician.

I find your comment extremely boring.
I imagine you being as boring as your comment.
your music might as well be as boring as yourself and your comment.
PD: I'm also a huge BTTF fan and just discovering this song made my day
This is

The "jigowatt" is really the Gigawatt that was misspelt by the producers and became the standard spelling for the movie.
