I found a better quality version of the song:

After a few listens I feel like it belongs in a '90s video game.
I don't mean that as a knock, though; I think it sounds good and is slowly growing on me. It kinda reminds me of "Songs" with the heavy synth sound and switching drum rhythm patterns.
I think the real instance of these women standing out, though, is the B-side, "Nakidasu Kamo Shirenai yo" (I don't really like the title of this one either):

Hip-hop Musume??? Or a hint of such with the beat at least...I was almost expecting a "J-J-J-J-J R!!!" in the intro.
I'm definitely looking forward to a high quality version of this one, especially with an instrumental version coming with it.
After the weirdness of the last single didn't sell it seems like the group's going for a more mainstream sound this time around.
