Song Production Information

This song's selling point is that I fully used and programmed with the currently out-of-print "MSX turboR (A1-GT)"'s MIDI functions. It's a good thing that it didn't take much production time.
As for the song, it's embedded with phrases that have a great potential to capture the hearts of the Japanese people, and a grandiose arrangement & light rhythms that feature an obvious progression. That was my aim. I'll be happy if many people play this song.
