notes: '"Tanaka Hirokazu no Uta" is a bizarre new single from video game music composer
  Hirokazu Tanaka responsible for Pac Man, Donkey Kong, Mario, Mother, Metroid, and
  many other classic video game sound tracks as well as the anime series Pokemon.
  This song is performed by ten other people in addition to the composer, all named
  Hirokazu Tanaka. The music is reminiscent of Hirokazu’s work on the Mother series,
  providing an upbeat, chiptune-esque backdrop for the surreal sound of an 11-Tanaka
  chorus singing about being named Hirokazu Tanaka. The song talks about how the name
  was picked for them and that they didn''t pick the name themselves. For all of you
  hardcore Hirokazu Tanaka fans out there, you can also download the A Capella version
  and savior every last note. This single was released one week early on HearJapan.'
