Downloads of the song alone outnumbered the sum of sales across all media of the nearest competitor (who was, ironically enough, Morrissey), making history in the process. The video, unfortunately, is not as history-worthy. The concept makes enough sense, expounding on the theme of “crazy” with a continuously changing Rorschach test.

Although Japanese voters have heard this type of pablum from politicians countless times in the past, it is vitally important for Ozawa to keep his word. For without the DPJ to keep the LDP on its toes, Japan suffers...
