I got someone to make it an mp3. You can find it here http://www.geocities.com/aubreypaul.rm/astroboy.mp3

What's the mp3 of?
...it doesn't seem to work/open

It was the German theme in .mp3 format. I guess you can't put mp3s on your site =\

Eh well.

I don't think this is off-topic but... yea.

Does anyone know the english translation of the intro in the 2003 cartoon? I've been looking for it (maybe I'm typing the wrong name in).

This is from the TV Nihon fansub.

------------
What is the reason of my birth?
Reason of life, question of man
What he is
What he wants

Right now you...
Are being troubled by an unseen power.
You hang your head...
And hide your tears.
What should be done?
That's unknown!
Blooming in the asphalt...
Is a flower of courage.

We'll always be by your side...
So you're not alone anymore.
When you lose your way...
I'll walk ahead and lead you.
Crossing to the far away sky...
We're flying!
It'll definitely be there... Your dream...

Here are two links for both the opening and closing credits of the french version.
With wmp you should be able to watch it.
Nevertheless though it's in poor quality , it sure brings great sentiments back.

Good stuff! I didn't look hard at the file extensions and thought they were just MP3s at first. I always find it interesting seeing how Astro is done in different languages.

Have you seen the English version, Louis'74? It doesn't start with a recap of Astro being built, the title says "Astroboy" rather than just "Astro", and there are extra scenes of Astro throwing Frankenstein on his head and lasering a giant octopus.
The French music seems to have a few more trumpet bits added in. And of course, it's all in French. After listening to it I started to think that Astro seems kind of French!
