Shinichi Ishihara Sang For The Tatsumis And Did A Cover Rendition For The Hoshikawas


The singer Shinichi Ishihara first did his Super Sentai contribution with the Turbo Rugger theme song. He was then made the lead singer for Kyukyu Sentai GoGoFive's opening theme. Here's the GoGoFive opening theme's English translation:

Stir up all your guts
Harder as it gets
Never ever give it up
We're gonna save you
Grandcross, chaos
Come what weather

We shall overcome
Wind is blowing for the V (five)

Help a little life
Whoever needs that livin' safe
Fight for the new future
For infinity

  • Rescue! Soldiers, Faster & Faster

Go through the fire, Run through the danger

Rescue! Soldiers, Higher & Higher
Brightening heart under the sun
Shining all above you
Save the earth, Save the life
We are the KyuKyu Sentai
Go Go Rescue Five!

Pluck up your courage
When it's on the edge

Keep a hope stay survived
We're gonna rescue
Major danger
Come what may, just
We shall overtop
With the power from the V (five)

Save a little life
Whatever needs our aid and care
Go for the millennium
For eternity
Rescue! Soldiers, Faster & Faster
Throughout the nature

Breakthrough evil dark

  • Rescue! Soldiers, Higher & Higher

Look up the sky passion of love
Sparkling all above on you
Save the earth, Save the life

We are the KyuKyu Sentai
Go Go Rescue Five!


Here's the cover version of Fiveman's opening theme sang by Ishihara. The original singer was Kenji Suzuki. Hmmm... I wonder when was this better version of the original released? I can ignore Power Rangers Lightspeed Rescue all I want while watching GoGoFive. However, I can't watch GoGoFive without thinking about its supposed inspiration for a sibling family -- Chikyu Sentai Fiveman! Fiveman nearly ended a franchise and it was Chojin Sentai Jetman that saved it. Ishihara's version was a Sony CBS Cover Version.

Here's Fiveman's opening theme lyrics in English with talks about the siblings bonding together. IMHO, GoGoFive may be miles better with plot while Fiveman brings the better song. Sigh, I wish GoGoFive tried to make the song more family-ish... =P 

1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 Fiveman!
Hold on to your life, it's now in danger!
The Earth is in peril!

The only mist within the galaxy
Falling stars of a rainbow

Linked in with the Bonds of Miracles
Rise up the burning, burning, burning flame!
