[edit] Vietnam

• Ok, let's get this issue straight and correct right now. There is no hidden track. Just because something is distributed on a P2P network as a secret song doesn't mean the song is actually a secret song or even related to the artist at all. The "hidden bonus" on Interstella 5555 is NOT a secret song. It's a 30 second display of early concepts and drawings of the characters in Interstella 5555. In other words, Vietnam is not even a song from Daft Punk but a lot of P2P networks are assuming that's it's from Daft Punk (which is wrong). Just wanted to get this point across.

Vietnam isn't from Interstella 5555, but it is a hidden track from Discovery, how it's accessed is beyond me, but i'm certain that the DVD has nothing to do with the song, just the CD

[edit] Alien race from prior Matsumoto work?

I've read somewhere that the blue-skinned alien race of which the "Crescendolls" are members was used in some prior Matsumoto work, but I don't see anything about it in the writeup. Anyone able to fill that in? --Robotech_Master 20:57, 3 June 2006 (UTC)

It was filled in. They're supposed to be reminiscent of Space Cruiser Yamato's Gamilion's.

[edit] Cleanup

I have been noticing for a while that two different plot outlines are being constructed in this article. We have a description of the entire plot and we have the decription of each music video segment. I'm kind of iffy of keeping both at how they are now. Do we need to explain the entire plot in full detail? The song segment section seems to be a condensed version of the plot and works fine. I reverted back the big description of the entire plot that just recently got deleted just so I can see what the userbase thinks of the plot.

I'm sure some things from the entire description of the plot can be merged into the song segment portion. Does this sound like a good idea? Douglasr007 01:39, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

No, there's no reason to go into anywhere near that much detail about the plot, so I'll go ahead and take it out. The part broken down into the different songs is OK as far as length/detail goes, except it probably shouldn't have the lyrics in there and it leans too much towards interpretation instead of summary.

I've never seen the film, and would like to know the basic plot. The current method of plot outline gives me only the most vague and nebulous idea of the plot.Pygmypony 14:17, 9 September 2006 (UTC)

Yep, it's lousy. I plan to add an trimmed version of the long plot section shown in older edits. Just64helpin 17:17, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
