The story behind the story. (info from wikipedia)
Momotarō (桃太郎?, "Peach Boy") is a popular hero of Japanese folklore. According to the present form of the tale (dating to the Edo period), Momotarō came to Earth inside a giant peach, which was found floating down a river by an old, childless woman who was washing clothes there. The woman and her husband discovered the child when they tried to open the peach to eat it. The child explained that he had been sent by Heaven to be their son. The couple named him Momotarō, from momo (peach) and tarō (eldest son in the family).

^ Interesting side note: Momotarō was also employed as the protagonist of a couple of Japanese propaganda cartoons for kids during World War II. In Momotarō's Sea Eagles, he commands a surprise attack on Demon Island, where Zeros piloted by cute animals sink battleships manned by demon sailors who resemble Popeye's nemesis Bluto, to the tune of "Aloha ʻOe"....

I have been IMMERSED. For a good solid two months now. I have the nostalgic feelings like when I got into Hello Project for the first time all over again. #obsessed
I'm not a fan of any of them, but there are two voices I like in BiSH (the girl with glasses and one of the main vocalists? At least, it's seemed like she's one of two main singers). I don't know any names or songs, I just catch things here and there mixed into chart videos or when I'm checking in on various youtube channels.

Would never have expected to see this collaboration. Not a big fan of the song, but it was interesting to hear once.

I think I'd like it a lot more without the visuals. ^^; This makes me wonder, why did he leave BabyLady? If he's just going to continue performing with idol groups...
Maybe he just prefers HK/China.
