GOLD RUSH!!!1

It seems that the song "Gold Rush" from IIDX Gold isn't a Konami original after all:

Oh...wow. I think I just peed myself a little. Hooray for instant classics.

Did the person that made that video even try? The guy's mouth doesn't even match up with the vocals at all. =/ The idea was good but the execution was terrible.

It might be YouTube offsync.
Sorry if that doesn't make any sense, I didn't watch the vid.

You mean there are videos on teh interwebz about BEATMANIA?!?
A normality test:
+++ATH
If you are no longer connected to the internet, you need to apply more wax to your modem: it'll make it go faster.
If you find this funny, you're a nerd.
If neither of the above apply, you are normal. Congratulations.

It's simply the audio track played over an actual older video clip, ala The Wizard of Oz and The Dark Side of the Moon. Fun coincidence and such, especially in a few spots (and the "Twinkie" line at the end, hehe). No one edited the original video or made a long attempt to sync it word-for-word. It would have been less funny, and rather forced and stupid that way. Which, ironically, this explanation feels like now since I've had to spoon feed it out.

Well, it's definitely a better meme than something Predictable!
