First off, we hope you all enjoyed our April Fool’s joke. It was just a last-minute idea and bad photoshop I slapped together last night. Yes, that isn’t even A~chan in the photo, but Tiffany from Girls’ Generation/SNSD (amazing how similar they look from the nose down, yes?).  I did plan on releasing a “Kashiyuka version” as well, matching with the SNSD trend on using Yoona’s photo, but that got scrapped. I’m glad most of you guys didn’t take it seriously, but it’s definitely an idea I’d like to entertain you all with, if Perfume plans on releasing a commercial-grade fragrance to be purchased at department stores. To those who looked forward to it being true, I apologize as it won’t (for now).

Other Perfume-related April Fool’s jokes that have surfaced include a Perfume Music Festival that “took place” today and the return of Aprils, a parody troupe that once parodied Perfume.

However, today did not only bring jokes, but real news. Their newly announced track Fushizen na Girl will have its first full airing on Perfume LOCKS! radio today at 11:05 PM and their PV will air on M-ON! by midnight. Stay tuned, as we will update this post with the results as they arrive!

[Edit2] Tokuma Japan only uploaded the partial PV as I’m pretty sure the full will be included in the LE edition, but here it is. M-ON! did air the full PV which you can download here.

Watch the PV on YouTube.

• Promotion Video preview (HD available)

• Full audio preview (radio rip)

Full PV will be aired online on March 11th at Yahoo! Movies (Japan area only).

Juicy Fragance (ジューシーフレグランス) is Perfume’s phantom song.

Nakata Yasutaka deleted by accident the data from the computer.
In the radio program Magical City on September 6th 2006 Kashiyuka said:

Kashiyuka: “At that time that was Perfume members favorite song”.

Nocchi: “Perhaps the company have the CD. A~chan is humming the tune.”

Even though it was played live it wasn’t yet registered at JASRAC.

In addition, I’ve cut that part of the program Magical City (20060906) so you can listen to the whole part about the song with A-chan humming it while Kashiyuka and Nocchi talk about their favorite and missing song.

TOKYO FM just aired Perfume’s Dream Fighter full song!

A new song by Perfume after the high success of Love the world! Dream Fighter is in my opinion more of a Pop song than an Electro one. Less use of the vocoder than previous releases and extended vocals.

This is a good electropop / technopop song, but not one of Perfume’s hardest songs.

The coupling song with Love the world upcoming single is a very Nakata Yasutaka / capsule style. The complementary side of Love the world, edge is a techno/electro long song (6:29, not sure if this is the extended version) with a lot of Kashiyuka, robotized voices and electro loops. Enjoy!
