Music
In 1995 and 1996, Hamada was also part of a musical duo with Tetsuya Komuro called "H jungle with t" (where the "H" stands for Hamada and the "t" stands for Tetsuya) and produced several songs, including their most popular song "Wow War Tonight" which was extremely popular at the time, and was played on the radio often. "H jungle with t" also performed some songs at live concerts during the mid 90's and videos of these can be found all over the internet on websites such as YouTube. In the song "Wow War Tonight" Hitoshi Matsumoto has a line that is repeated several times throughout the course of the song, "B-U-S-A-I-K-U H-A-M-A-D-A", this translates to "Ugly Hamada", one of several of Matsumoto's famous and common insults at Hamada. Other common insults are "Gorilla", "Lip Monster" and "Chimp" (See 'Running Jokes' for more about this).

Famous quotes containing the word music:
“Great music is that which penetrates the ear with facility and leaves the memory with difficulty. Magical music never leaves the memory.”
—Thomas Beecham (1879–1961)
“During the cattle drives, Texas cowboy music came into national significance. Its practical purpose is well known—it was used primarily to keep the herds quiet at night, for often a ballad sung loudly and continuously enough might prevent a stampede. However, the cowboy also sang because he liked to sing.... In this music of the range and trail is “the grayness of the prairies, the mournful minor note of a Texas norther, and a rhythm that fits the gait of the cowboy’s pony.””
—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
“Music is either sacred or secular. The sacred agrees with its dignity, and here has its greatest effect on life, an effect that remains the same through all ages and epochs. Secular music should be cheerful throughout.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
