Song 74 ( Fire Bomber (Hummingbird) - Dynamite Explosion )

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51U60flzcrL._SX300_.jpg

I'm in an odd mood today, so I decided to pick another song from the fictitious band "Fire Bomber." Fire Bomber is the band that is the main focus in the animé Macross 7; this song was featured in the movie Dynamite 7. Hummingbird, a Japanese metal band, was used to perform the songs on the recordings and went under the name "Fire Bomber" for these songs. The whole band is very talented, however the lead guitarist/vocalist, Yoshiki Fukuyama really stands out and is amazing.
What I have found odd about a lot of Japanese music is that the artists use English words smattered around in the song, in this one they use English lyrics throughout the choruses and use Japanese in the verses. I am not usually drawn to music from television shows or movies, however they did an excellent job with the music on this one.

Here is the studio version in a fan video on YouTube.
