==== [[Kiyoshi Murai|Seiya Murai]] ====
It's a beautiful song that matches the accordion melody and light rhythms. I asked for the production to have the image of a quite stylish route, but when the leader said "it sounds like a daytime drama theme song", my mind went blank... why? (laughs). It's absolutely not a daytime drama song!
 
=== pop'n music ===
==== Q-Mex ====
It's nostalgic, "City of the Sun" from KEYMANI 3rd. Has it already been four years ago?<br>
This is an Astor Piazzolla-styled song called "Soul of the Tango".
 
Yes, I did a lot of research on real tango.<br>
(Back then, Yo-Yo Ma's performance was often played more than the original)
 
"I'm not going to plagiarize~. I'm going to research it!"
 
(Huh, to explain in a bit more detail, instead of copying superficial phrases, I'm imitating his methods, way of thinking, and spirit.<br>
Is this a musician's fundamentals?)
 
There's a long version included in Q-Mex's album.<br>
If you've first listened to it in pop'n and liked it, by all means, please check it out.<br>
(Note: [[Nataradin]]'s long version is also currently trending a bit on the internet, and it's a big deal.)
 
Note: Try and look for Nataradin on flash!

Mature and stylish... I tried filling this video with flowers, but [[Yuji Takahashi|YU○]] said "don't do something like this"....<br>
I wonder if I also consciously had the image of a "daytime drama"...??

Father, mother, I was finally able to perform on this stage....
 
=== amamon. ===
When I was trying to think of a character to include, [[Tomoko Shiono|shio]] told me "here, use CECIL", and gave him to me.
 
His basic animations are similar to his previous ones, but I somehow changed his clothes to make him feel just a bit more mature.<br>
But, only his LOSE animation is new ^^;
 
When this kind of song is included next time, I think it'd be great if CECIL appears a bit more grown up.
 
== Staff Comments ==
=== [[Masaru Nakamura|masaru]] ===
A bandoneon and violin harmony~<br>
I hope an original song like this will come someday!
 
=== [[Chihiro Inoue|Chihi]] ===
The accordion is a really admirable instrument, right~?<br>
But Chihi, who can't make different movements with both hands, was always in charge of playing the bass drum & cymbals (I don't really play much, so I'll play both) I'd like to play them smoothly like this~
 
=== [[Jun Wakita|wac]] ===
I've wanted to have a Children's Day event, and I also wanted to cross over both this song and the [[CS pnm 9|home version]]'s [[redraw lots|TOYBOX]], so I crossed them over. I didn't care at this point that the songs felt seasonal, so I called it the tango festival. I'm quite smart when I come up with an idea! I thought about it, but now that I think about it, it's OK in various ways. I didn't think about the consequences, so there ended up having just two songs for Children's Day. This store competition project is such a project. As usual.
