Yep, I've heard of this. It's "Nami Nori Pirates" by Pink Lady. Pink Lady was a duo which was very popular in Japan in 1970's(here's a Wikipedia article about them), and this was released in 1979. Surprisingly, it's on Spotify too, though I doubt if it's available overseas: In case Spotify doesn't work, try this one: |

I've been told, but can't confirm, that the B side was the same recording minus the BB. Released July 1979 on Victor SV 6590, oddly before the short Japan tour in that year. I'm told the English title is something like "Surfin' Pirates".

A side is completely different recording of the same song, recorded in Japan without the BB's. B side is the version recorded in US with BBs, arranged by Paul Fouerso. The single itself is on Spotify:

In the early days of ebay, I got that 45 for less than $5. Have no idea what it goes for now.
