Are you kidding? Steve Conte sang songs for Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain, and Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex.

Try this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Conte... exerpt with respect...

"Conte often works with composer Yoko Kanno and lyricist Tim Jensen creating soundtracks to anime series, such as "Stray", the opening theme to the Wolf's Rain as well as the tracks "Heaven's Not Enough" and "Could You Bite the Hand?" All three appear on the OST albums.

Conte's vocals can also be heard in some episodes of Cowboy Bebop, as well as the 2001 film most notably for the song "Call Me Call Me", as well as "Words That We Couldn't Say", "No Reply" and "Diggin'". He also sang the OST CD version of "Rain", which is sung by Mai Yamane in the series. He would later sing alongside Shanti Snyder on "Living Inside the Shell", the ending theme to 2004's Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd GIG.

He also performed on the duet "The Garden of Everything" with Japanese singer Maaya Sakamoto on her RahXephon-related single "Tune the Rainbow".

He provided the vocals for the 2007 video game Sonic and the Secret Rings closing credits song titled "Worth a Chance", as well as the game's main theme "Seven Rings in Hand"."


how's that grab you?

Steve Conte has sung some of my all-time favorite anime songs; "Call Me Call Me" gets to me every single time I hear it. I hope this new project is successful for him.

Hmmm... Steve Conte without Yoko Kanno is like pizza without cheese...

Not sure if going naught but bread and sauce will turn out successfully... =_=

That's right on the money. Besides, Steve Conte is awesome and I love his work, especially on Bebop and The Garden of Everything.

You know your music.
