The first Lupin III TV series, even though it was fonke fonke fonke in
most respects (what a breakthrough--compare the theme to Tetsuwan Atom
or Mach Go Go Go...), is generally regarded by most authorities as
having had the worst music in the history of anime. Of course, *I* seek
out the two soundtrack albums, but that's because I'm not prejudiced
where Lupin III is concerned...Besides, it's kind of fun to listen to a
singer who sounds like Lennon after a prefrontal lobotomy. That sound
was all the rage in 1971...

"Lupin, yeah, he's a nice man...He smiles...And he gets angry...Yeah,
Lupin...Yeah, Lupin...You're great."

              --sample lyrics

"I came to get down...I came to get down!"

              --House Of Pain, "Jump Around"

You mean "Lupin Lupin Lupin..... THE THIRD!" (etc.)??? A classic, man.
It's right up there in all-time favourite movies/series themes with the
Pink Panther tune. :)
