The song was "Welcoming Morning" by Chappie. I picked it for a lot of reasons: one, as was pointed out, the song is a J-pop song, a genre I doubt most ILM'ers are too knowledged about. Two, the song is very cutesy but the lyrics are in Japanese, which meant that perhaps people who normal dislike cutesy songs might latch onto it. Three, it's got a little bit of glitch, house, and pop, and multi-genre songs always pique people's curiousity. But I guess the real reason I picked it is because I think's awesome. For me, it transcends the disposable j-pop genre and it transcends the language barrier, and I just wanted to share it with everyone. Hoped you liked it.
