We Will Rock You

(YouTube link)
There is no information on this clip, other than it’s from a Japanese TV show. Maybe someone who reads Japanese can translate the screen text. I thoroughly enjoyed it. -via Metafilter

Update: Thanks to Kaz@MA, who pointed out this is the same band, Ooedo No Hikeshi, who did Smoke on the Water.

This is awesome. It gives a new feel to the song rather than just football and hockey.

This kind of Japanese music are called as”Tokiwazu-bushi”,
very important part of “Kabuki”.

My Japanese isn’t fully fluent, but I can read the first subtitle at 0:30 (the others are blurry and in alphabets I can’t completely understand). It doesn’t say anything particularly useful:

“We Will Rock You
English rock band Queen’s 1977 hit. ‘Don-don-cha’ rhythm beat.”

Kaz@MA, thanks! I didn’t realize this was the same band. It’s Ooedo No Hikeshi.
