RBI Theme Song Name

[JPEP]

I have to ask, and not that all of us haven't hummed the song all day in our heads after a night of clashes...

My Japanese collegue, who has never played RBI (soon to be corrected) recognized me humming it.  He said it was a famous Japanese baseball song (figures) but he couldn't think of a title for it.  

Does anyone know the title of our favorite song?

i have heard it in other baseball video games as well... must be a japanese league song.  good question.  looks like we need to go digging.  anybody hip on the japanese league?  or have a friend in japan who can help?

[Gantry]

Has anyone heard it in a non-RBI game?  Perhaps he meant he heard it in Family Stadium?  It's a pretty popular car in Japan...

Since when were we talking about Toyotas? And was Teddy's post supposed to have a link?

Hi there, 1st time poster. Love that there are many RBI fans in the world.

Anyway, isn't the "RBI theme" also in Bases Loaded and Baseball Stars? It has to be a Japanese league thing.

[Gantry]

Welcome!  

Whoops on the car, but I stand by my stupidity...

As for Bases Loaded and Baseball Stars, the theme music in the American versions is different than RBI.  Not sure about the Japanese version, anyone know?

You have a copy of the music from Super Batter Up on the Media page; is that a descendant of the Family Stadium series?

RBI 2 and 3 don't have Japanese counterparts that I know of, and they don't have any version of the original music.  The music in 3 is kinda catchy; the music in 2 is just plain weird.

Likely yes, see:

I think the song's name is "Dogs in the Bath Tub"

lyrics:


Dogs in the bath tub
My dogs in the bath tub
My dogs in the tub, boo ya

I got them nuts in the butt
got them nuts in the butt
nuts in the butt, nuts in the butt,  boo - boo - boo ya


(Repeat)

Classic - rack 'em

Classic - rack 'em

Jim Rome sucks.  I'll take the Dan Patrick show over Rome any day.

Everytime I turn to Rome (when DP Show on commercial, of course), there's a 10 second pause while he's "thinking" of the next thing he's going to repeat for the next 10 minutes.

[Ryno23]

just sing it out loud

it's catchy.

[BeeJay]

I started singing that song in my head while I was brushing my teeth, and proceeded to drool all over myself.  Good job Ryno.

I know you are a first time poster and all, and I certainly don't want to discourage your contributions to RBI, but come on man, a little respect here for RBI, those other games can't hold a candle to the classic and their music cannot either

[Gantry]

Bump, still trying to find the name of this song...

[OctoFranco]

Damn it!  I spent 20 minutes last night trying to find this thread to link to in the more recent one about this subject, but alas, I foolishly persisted in including the word "music" in my search terms.  I finally convinced myself that I must have just imagined/dreamt it.

So nicely done Gantry.  Do you think you're better than me?

[Gantry]

A winner is whoever can come up with the name of the song...

[ultimate7]

I'm officially done searching since my search has led me to possibly the worst thread in the history of the internets, I cannot go on.
