I'm not sure what the name of the program actually is but Go Go Go Music Champ is supposed to be a show where Jpop artists perform. The one I happened to see had one performance with about 10 guys who sang "Kokoro Hana." I don't think it was their song since there was so many of them, but I searched online for it and can't find it. While this is pretty random I thought, since the show hosts Jpop artists, it might have something to do with anime.

I'm not absolutely sure about the title of the song, but it had the katakana for "kokoro" and the kanji for "hana." It might not even be the title.

The show is actually called Hey! Hey! Hey! Music Champ and airs on the weekends on around 7 PM, PST on Fujisankei Television (I think...I haven't paid much attention since I'm not a huge fan of the show). The thing is, they do have Jpop/rock artist guests but it's essentially a talk/comedy show. There are a few performances but that isn't the focus. Anime is not discussed at all in the show.

Well I did a google search for the Hana song you referred to and the only thing I could come up with is Kokoro no Hana by motoko from the Fullmetal Alchemist and the Broken Angel video game.
Another slight possibility is Hana by Orange Range. However, it doesn't have "Kokoro" (heart) in the title so I could very well be wrong. In any case, Hana was an extremely popular hit and was ranked #1 for the year in Japan at one point. Another one of their popular songs is ~*Asterisk, which you may be familiar with as the first OP song in Bleach.

...Found it! "Kokoro Bana" by Warakin Allstars. The tune is penned by "Tortoise" from the Ulfuls. Doesn't appear to be related to any anime though...

Wow! Thanks!

Yes, that's right, it is "Hey! Hey! Hey!"

I am pretty sure that the kanji was "flower" - are there alternative pronunciations?

(Is this forum only for anime-related music or Japanese music in general?)
