On the bright side, it's unintentionally funny because Diddy takes himself seriously in the first half, and acts like he's having fits of epilepsy in the second half. This would have actually made my day if, at the end, Godzilla actually went ahead and ate Diddy instead of just staring at him like a deer caught in headlights. Uh huh, this is basically just Kashmir playing in the background of some mediocre rapping. Also, I think Jimmy sings in this but I'm not sure. It sounds really emo and angsty though. I think I'm crying right now. [EDIT] - Actually, the Kashmir part itself isn't half bad. In fact, the reworking of the instrumentals are fucking badass sounding. If Page wanted to go ahead and release a new version of Kashmir with an awesome guy on vocals (my personal pick would be the guy from Wolfmother), then you go right the fuck ahead because it would probably still rock your face off from here to Nepal.

P.Diddy used Rapid Spin!
Godzilla flinched!
Yah. Not the greatest song ever, and about the worst song involving Godzilla off the top of my head. I remember even now that when we went to see that movie, (like ten years ago, maybe eleven.) my father was livid about the ending credits. He was all like "They couldn't have played Blue Oyster Cult? Whose second biggest song's Godzilla? Cheap bastards."
Though actually, considering BOC's financial situation from time to time, it probably would have been cheaper to get them than to commission Diddy Kong to go on his tiltawhirl rampage.
(The best songs involving Godzilla, in order, not counting instrumentals from the movies, Godzilla, by Blue Oyster Cult, then Go Godzilla Go by whoever the people are that do the music for initial D (They go by like eighty different names), then the Smashing Pumpkins cover (They just didn't get the whole "Slow and Ominous" memo, did they?)
There's some other great ones, but I can't think of them off the top of my head. I'll do a search and report back with Godzilla-y music and such.
Semi Irrelevant, but:

It makes me the saddest, because...it's just as much Jimmy Page's fault as it is Diddy's. I mean, someone had to agree to the collab in the first place.
Though I'm not knocking his role in the thing. I'm just saying that the faux-angry rapping wasn't necessary.

Okay, now it's inexcusable. Jimmy Page, please die now.

Someone fill me in on something. Who the hell is this "P. Diddy"?

It's best you don't know. Really.

Sean Combs, a man trying to set the world record for disambiguations leading to him on Wikipedia.
