Fuki's other projects DOLL$BOXX

DOLL$BOXX is great, and I wish they would make more albums. Pretty much all songs on the album they released are nice, and I love how they made (low budget) music videos for all(?) songs.

Uh, I have a pretty specific question and I guess this is as good of a place as any to ask it.

Every once in a while, I see the song "WOW WAR TONIGHT" by "H Jungle with t /" referenced, and I don't really know the backstory to what was the deal with it.
From what I've understood from my limited Japanese knowledge it's some type of cult classic or something, that sold a lot? Haven't found any info in english.
Video of song: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x10mw2a_h-jungle-with-t-wow-war-tonight-pv_fun

Some covers:
Ayumi: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hC5bBTlKh9g
AKB48: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avZwOOyHtIk
AOA: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AecI4tgb-TA
and there's a ton of less known artists covering it as well.


Anyone could give some insight in what the cultural significance is by this song?

Something to do with Downtown / Hey!Hey!Hey! Music Champ, if you're familiar with those guys or ever watched that show. I haven't seen it since I used to watch it back in the early 00s, so I don't recall. Maybe it was the theme song or something. The show was super popular, so I'm sure that has something to do with it. If you look through the related videos there, you'll see a video of Hamada (from Downtown) singing it.

e: ah that's also him in the Dailymotion link. I hadn't clicked it

Ah, a little more info on his wikipedia page.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masatoshi_Hamada#Music

quote:

In the 1990s, Hamada was also part of a musical duo with Tetsuya Komuro called "H jungle with t" (ja) (where the "H" stands for Hamada and the "t" stands for Tetsuya) and produced several songs, including their most popular song, "Wow War Tonight", which sold over 2 million copies and ranked number 2 in the top 100 Oricon singles of 1995.

It seems they made a popular song, carried by their fame from TV, and performed it there a few times, then it sortof became a cult hit or something. Cool to know.
