Melon (band)
Melon was a group formed by former The Plastics members Toshio Nakanishi and Chica Sato. When The Plastics broke up in 1982, Toshio went to New York City and formed Melon with friends Percy Jones of Brand X, Dougie Bowne of The Lounge Lizards, and Bernie Worrell of Funkadelic and Chica Sato, former vocalist of The Plastics, trying to merge funk with Japanese and became known as a quirky, exotic, pop band. Chica’s appearances in Toshi’s projects since Melon have dwindled, but Toshio continues collaborating music acts, changing sounds and names: Tycoon Tosh, Group of Gods, Love T.K.O., Major Force and Skylab being some of the most often used.

gollark: I don't really Java but```javapublic class Grass extends Item { public Grass() { super() namePlural = "Grass" name = "Grass" }}```might be closer.
gollark: Apparently.
gollark: Instead, rewrite your project in Haskell and something something zygohistomorphic prepromorphisms.
gollark: You could try not using Java.
gollark: That would make sense.
