It’s a song called “Anpanman’s March”, the opening theme song from a very popular kids’ show in Japan: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anpanman

Damn, beat me to it. Oh well.

Sell ourselves in every mall :musical_note:

Thank you

Here is a video of the song. I don’t know if this is a correct translation of the words, but if it is they are interesting.

I don’t know why, but my daughter loves Anpanman since she was a 4 year old. Found it on youtube…

I think that’s supposed to be the sun. I’ll give them a pass on this as it’s not often seen in Scotland. :slight_smile:

I just assumed that the designer visited some Glasgow drug dealers and tried a little bit of everything.

The great thing about Anpanman is that his head is essentially a jelly doughnut.
