Nodame Cantabile is a popular manga that was serialised into,first, a Dorama feat. Ueno Juri and Tamaki Hiroshi then later an anime series. The interesting thing about Nodame Cantabile is that it revolves around classical music. The dorama OST is filled with classical orchestra pieces as well as Piano solos etc. However, there is a quirky side to Nodame Cantabile which involves songs of dubious nature that have been included in this single.

2. 恋のGカップ
3. プリごろ太のテーマ (プリごろ太マーチ)

Ten’s Thoughts:
Track 1 is the song that Nodame composes and forces the fan-wielding sensei to dance to:

Track 2 is the song that the twins from S-oke sings during one of the Karaoke sessions:
I actually like the melody but the lyrics are beyond ridiculous as it is titled–> G-cup of Love. And amusing piece to listen to while getting drunk.
Track 3 is the Puri Gouta(?) anime within Nodame Cantabile theme:
*speechless*
Also, I found this website that has the latest J-pop single/album releases. It’s all very exciting for me but the links don’t seem to be cooperating with me. *RAWR* It’s in Japanese but easy to navigate as all the labels are in English. Check it out here.
