Background

"Remote Control" is an original song by Wonderful☆Opportunity. It was uploaded to YouTube on December 1, 2013. The song may literally mean the use of a remote controller; the user can just sit down while using the device to manipulate certain commands. This song appears to be Len and Rin using their remote controllers against each other, but in a playful manner.

After its upload, it didn't take long for the song to reach the Hall of Fame. It reached the Hall of Legend on September 21, 2012. Hence, this is Wonderful☆Opportunity's most notable song, and one of the Kagamines' most notable duet songs.

Trivia

• A running gag on Nico Nico Douga is that whenever Rin's part comes, commenters will say しー (shi) either in the original song, or derivatives; many しー comments are posted as a pun.
• In Rin's Transmitter module and the Reciever module for Len, their pupils exhibit the positive sign (+) and the negative sign (-). This may imply that remote controllers "transmit" the command to the device to "recieve" and do the command.
