IshambardDue to numerous factors, I had dropped the ball on #VGMWednesday last week.
My attention has been divided all over the place admittedly.
So, whilst I was casually listening to stuff at work, something came up, and it was like a gorgeous gut punch. A, charming, full bodied impact into my soul.
Is everything I said above a lie, and just an opportunity to reference something lyrics? Yes. But, it is true that 『I am Impact』from Mystical Ninja starring Goemon for the N64 just snuck into my recommendations and I was smacked with some funky nostalgia.

When this song plays in-game, you are transported into a giant mecha to engage in mecha on mecha boss fights. It is awesome and absurd in equal measure. Ichirō Mizuki's performance here is fantastic, and unashamedly silly in the best possible way.
Do I need to play Goemon again? Yes. It is on the list. I'm getting to it, I promise.
