MOSURA (Mothra) - The Peanuts - "Mosura No Uta" (1961)

The Peanuts, Emi and Yumi Ito, would have some brief success in the U.S. after the release of Mothra. The group recorded an English only album with covers of such songs as "California Dreamin" and "Proud Mary" & also were on The Ed Sulivan Show. Here, from the 1961 Toho film "Mosura" we have The Peanuts doing "Mosura No Uta" with music by Yuji Koseki. If this is weird enough for you, go out & buy or rent the DVD or buy a Peanuts CD!

Sorry, the soundclip is no longer available!!

Kate said...: Great post! After I downloaded the track, though, I had to convert it to mp3 format from some other format--should I have had to do that?; July 24, 2007 at 6:14 PM
Eegah!! and Tabonga! said...: Hey Kate, Hopefully the file you got was the old post. I've played & downloaded it & it is definately an mp3, so you shouldn't have to convert it or anything. It all works fine, Thanx for your interest!; July 24, 2007 at 7:59 PM

DWRAYGER DUNGEON PRESENTS: The Monster Movie Music Manifesto

Horror, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Spy, Super-Hero, JD, Thriller and Noir films, that's what we like, and a recurring theme in a lot of those kinds of movies has always been music! There were rockin' clubs and cafes with cool jukeboxes, teen poolside parties with local bands, sometimes it was a seedy bar with a sleazy torch singer, a beatnik coffeehouse, maybe dancing somewhere in outer space, or some weird tribal ceremony on a cool secluded island with giant monsters running around, and you could count on it that a lot of the time there was smoking and drinking going on. It was a fun time!! A lot of movies also had quirky, swingin', jazzy or rockin' themes or credits, or maybe just some wild Psychotronic elements! We started with the music from 50's & 60's Monster Movies, but we later morphed into the new, bigger and better, Rock and Soul, 70's brevity, 80's maybes, 1940's Gorilla and Bela site from Hell! So, sit down, and take a load off, pour yourself a cool one, and order up something hot and greasy, because we have a lot of tasty tidbits on the menu, way outside the realm of good taste! If any of the postings just happen to step on anybody's toes, let us know & we will remove them immediately, if not sooner!! We recognize all formal copyrights, and do this solely to support and promote the films featured! This forum is only being presented in a critical and scholarly critique, and should not be construed as anything else. It's just all for Fun & Historical Education in an effort to keep bad taste alive forever!!! If the words and pictures pique your interest, then please go out & buy, or rent the movies, wherever you can find them! All soundclips are approximately two minutes long, or just enough to give you a feel for the movie! When we post a sound clip, it will only stay up 30 days or less! These days, after getting hassled time and time again, we don't even do soundclips much anymore!!

Here are some good places to start your search for hard to find cult films on the internet:

Trash Palace
Cult Action
Something Weird
Video Screams
DVD Empire
Amazon
Sinister Cinema
Creepster TV
