The above isn't a video but it is a chance to hear Kiyoshiro Iwamano's version of "Kimigayo" which got him thrown off his record label. He's not a stranger to controversy, here he is below performing a song criticizing radio station FM Tokyo which wasn't cleared with the show's producers.

I am not surprised. Here is a similar story about Jose Feliciano, the controversy over his version of the American National Anthem inspired Jimi Hendrix to perform it at Woodstock.

Fantastic! You don't see or hear much direct criticism like that.
His [Brendan Behan's] last words were to several nuns standing over his bed, "God bless you, may your sons all be bishops."
