CD Single (2004)

"Ai o Torimodose!!" (愛をとりもどせ!!, "Ai o Torimodose!!"^?), also known as "YOU wa SHOCK" (YOU は SHOCK, yū wa shokku^?) from its refrain, is the famous opening theme of the popular Japanese TV series Fist of the North Star (北斗の拳, Hokuto no Ken^?). The song's title means "Take back the love!!" in English and is performed by the rock band Crystal King. The verses are sung by Mush Yoshisaki (ムッシュ吉崎, Musshu Yoshisaki^?) and the chorus by Masayuki Tanaka. Ai o Torimodose!! is featured as an extra "special BGM" in the PlayStation 2 version of the multiplatform Jissen PachiSlot Hisshohou! Hokuto no Ken video game and is also used as the opening for the 2005 Sega-Sammy arcade arcade game. Mixed Martial Artist Josh Barnett uses the song as an entrance theme in PRIDE Fighting Championships.
