More excited to have Laser Beam full and unaltered than for the PV.

i can't wait

AyusakiFan 8th May 2011 06:33 PM

The PV looks like it's going to be one of their best! The dance, looks, and concept all look great! This makes me even more upset that the full version of the PV will not be on the single though. Hopefully the full version will be on their album but it's hard to predict what the content of the album DVD will be.

What that's so cheap!! Why wouldn't they put the full version on, that's dumb.

Tokuma wastes no time huh? Seriously, they're like CIA secret service people. They'll shut you down faster than you can put up a video. They must have a special department dedicated to removing the music and taking down videos because they work in record time. I wonder why they just took the sound out the first time and then decided to remove it all together instead of just taking it down once and for all? Weird. Anyways, the video is also available at Dailymotion, with the sound: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xilmgk_perfume-laser-beam_music

I agree with you. I honestly don't know what the point is of putting a short version of a PV on the DVD. I can't think of any reasonable explanation as to why they would do that. The only thing I can think of, which is still not an excuse, is that the DVD also contains a making clip of the single's jackets. They normally don't put much more than the lead track's PV on the single's DVD so it's kind of like they gave us something more than they usually do so therefore they decided to not give a full PV in exchange. While I'm happy about the making clip, I still think that they should have included a full version of the PV rather than a short version.

hsienko 8th May 2011 07:05 PM

I'm kinda disappointed by the PV preview. I thought there would be a lot more lasers.

Before you jump to conclusions, they explain it here:

http://d.hatena.ne.jp/aerodynamik/20110501/p1

The earthquake hit during filming, their studio in yokohama experienced a blackout, and they haven't been able to complete the PV since then. A-chan and nocchi also clarify that they along with their staff want to eventually be able to provide us the full version but this is all they can give us for now.

adantatu2 9th May 2011 04:24 AM

^thanks for the info, now we can understand!
the pv looks very promising, i hope they can do the full pv soon

AyuGAME 9th May 2011 04:33 AM

oh wow...i don't know that they filming this when the earthquake occured...
so the PV will be just 1.30 long?

dreamland2.0 9th May 2011 05:26 AM

Well that makes sense!! Thanks for the info!!

Bigtop 9th May 2011 11:45 PM

SURPRISE AGAIN! This time it's on a GLOBAL scale!!!

Spoiler:
Perfume to make world debut in Disney Pixar’s “Cars 2″

Today it was revealed that popular techno-pop trio Perfume will make an audible appearance in Disney Pixar’s “Cars 2” as well as on its official soundtrack.

It was decided to use the trio’s hit song “Polyrhythm” as one of the film’s background songs, and it won’t be just limited to its Japanese release. The song will also be included on the official soundtrack CD that will be released worldwide in June, thus making it their world debut in some sort.

In “Cars 2″, star racecar Lightning McQueen and the incomparable tow truck Mater take their friendship to exciting new places when they head overseas to compete in the first-ever World Grand Prix to determine the world’s fastest car. “Polyrhythm” will sooth your ears when the friends decide to party in town the night before their race in Japan.

A while ago it was announced on the official Japanese website of the film that they were searching for a nice Japanese song for that scene and apparently many people recommended Perfume’s song to the production team. The producers and directors liked it as well and were delighted to find such a great fitting song.

It is common for Japanese artists to provide songs for the Japanese releases of films, but only a few Japanese artists have been included in international versions of non-Japanese films. A great honor for Perfume and a great opportunity to become known outside of Japan and the realm of J-Pop fans.

By the way, regarding on the Laser Beam PV, I do agree and understand why it's short - and it's all because the earthquake disrupted production. (I'm really wondering what release date would it have had it not been affected by the earthquake - maybe April 27?)

Beauty4123 10th May 2011 12:28 AM

oh cool! but who really buys movie soundtracks? especially from a disney movie? lol. i don't think little kids will appreciate perfume's style of music. :laugh

gallowsCalibrator 10th May 2011 01:23 AM

I wanted to see Cars 2 anyway (just because it's Pixar :heart), but now I really want to see it! I'll be listening for it in the background :luv2

zellyx 10th May 2011 01:26 AM

:heart didn't want to see this movie. Now I do.

AyuGAME 10th May 2011 03:58 AM

that's cool!

Ranma Matsuri 10th May 2011 05:58 AM

This is good but this would be amazing promotion if it were the actual theme song. Disney movie theme songs tend to get a lot of attention since they pimp them like nobody's business on their own channel. I'll be looking forward to hearing it though.

Beauty4123 10th May 2011 08:00 PM

the full Laser Beam PV is airing on SPACE SHOWER TV tomorrow! :yatta

Ranma Matsuri 10th May 2011 10:46 PM

^Awesome! I haven't looked at the preview, so it's gonna be totally new to me. :D

Polyrhythm 11th May 2011 01:38 AM

You can download it from Perfume city. The "full" version is the short version =/ So much potential...I hope they finish it for the album.

Beauty4123 11th May 2011 02:15 AM



i dunno if this is the actual "short" version, but regardless...sucks that an amazing PV had to be incomplete. :( i really hope we'll get the full PV on the new album!

hsienko 11th May 2011 02:48 AM

Maybe they couldnt finish it because of the earthquake.

ストロボ・EdGE 11th May 2011 06:00 AM

Aw well at least they delivered some of it. The dancing is less technical at parts than typical Perfume.

Ranma Matsuri 11th May 2011 07:15 AM

That's the Preview I believe. This is the "full" short version, it's about a minute longer:

Perfume Reveals Full Version Of "Laser Beam" PV Does Not Exist

Due to the earthquake that occurred in Japan, shooting for the PV of "Laser Beam" was never complete. No full version of the PV exists.

With Perfume's newest single "Laser Beam / Kasuka na Kaori" being released May 18th, it has been revealed that a full PV for the single will not be released. This is because no full version exists!

The video began shooting in March, but filming stopped after the devastating earthquake that hit Japan. Filming never resumed. As a result, there will only be a short version of the PV available on the single's DVD.

I can't wait to have the physical release in my hands and with the single coming out in 5 days, it won't be too long!

Loved the performance. I think Nocchi really likes this single. Even in the PV, she just seems so much more fierce than usual and really into the song and dance. XD

NINKI: 2. 94.30

As expected, they'll more than likely come in at #2 behind KATTUN. I just wanna see them finally pass the 100K mark in 1st week. They're getting closer and closer to doing so.

and good ninki, sadly there is that boyband, but is ok, i hope they can sell 100k the first week.

and i can't wait for hear the new song !!!

Bigtop 15th May 2011 06:27 AM

Don't expect them #1 in this edition of weekly sales competition (#2 again, most likely). But I think Perfume's going to be #1 in quality of song over KAT-TUN - and their popularity keeps increasing! I'm going to say that Perfume is just another artist where quality matters over overall quantity...

See, this is exactly why I need to stay out of this thread until I receive my single, lol. When this single was first announced, I told myself that I wasn't going to watch the PV at all or listen to Laser Beam past the first couple of seconds until I received my copy. At this point, I've watched the PV, listened to Laser Beam in full and now I'm tempted to listen to Kasuka na Kaori. Apparently I don't have the self restraint to be able to stay in this thread and stick to my word, lol. But it's so hard to resist, I need help. :freak

Polyrhythm 15th May 2011 09:53 PM

As much I like it....it's sort of like a guilty pleasure song....like....maybe this is the kind of song Perfume would make all the time if Perfume was an AKB48 subunit or something.

dreamland2.0 16th May 2011 12:14 AM

It's a very happy song. Kind of something like their indie days, except with vocoder/autotune. It's a cute song!

ストロボ・EdGE 16th May 2011 01:10 AM

Omg I am so in love with this single :luv2...Well I love Laser Beam at least, but Kasuka na Kaori is sweet. It had a cute little melody but it's gonna need to grow on me a little more.

Perfume City has some, though not much of recent releases or Triangle.
http://perfume.ekuseru.net/lyrics/
I bet in the actual forums there are some translations or more translated lyrics in progress!

Thanks for reminding me, I wanted to find some of perfume's lyrics as well! :)


EDIT: yes there's some finished translations of lyrics and lyrics in progress here, when you scan through the pages. I'm sure many haven't been added to the perfume city lyrics page because they were debating laser beam's lyrics!

AyusakiFan 17th May 2011 05:22 AM

Although I haven't listened to it, I'm happy to hear that Kasuka na Kaori is a cute and fun song. For some reason, I thought it was going to be more of a slower song than an upbeat one. My order for the single shipped yesterday so I'm hoping it won't be too long until I can listen to it on the CD. :)

Kasuka na Kaori is very relaxing and the short PV is very natural and beautiful!

Anyway, so happy that Perfume is crushing DiVA. I mean, if it were a good song with good covers with good remixed tracks (it has none of these), maybe I would be more okay with Perfume losing to them....but c'mon....it would be such a disgrace if something like that charted higher than Perfume.
