バラライカ~!
Title: バラライカ, Balalaika
Artist: Kusumi Koharu
Genre: J Pop
Single: バラライカ
Album: ☆☆☆ (Mitsuboshi, Three Stars)
Vintage: 26/10/06 (D/M/Y)
Kenn's Comment: Kusumi Koharu is the voice actor for Tsukishima Kirari, the main character of the anime Kirari Revolution. She was also a member of Morning Musume. The song's pretty addicting and cute. Balalaika is a Russian string instrument family. Not sure how the song ties into the instrument, but the song does have some Russian-esque melody or sound to it. I guess they couldn't use the sickle and hammer in the MV and had to settle for the moon and star.
