A town in Japan called Obama is home to a band named Anyone Brothers
Band. Cashing in on their American namesake, they have released the
song, "Obama is Beautiful World." It's a tribute both to their
own city and the presidential candidate. In Japanese, Obama means, "little
beach." For you the listener, it means fun! Video Below!
