unfortunately, one of the screens kept falling, looks like it had something to do with the wheels. At the end I loved how they thank their team <3 so everybody is keeping their job! haha.

For those who didn't watch the stream here it is Coachella performance - weekend 2 Mikiko (Perfume's coreographer) uploaded a story of perfume saying goodbye to the audience, it was a big crowd and there was people even outside the tent! Check it out!!

wow 50 songs!! :O i wonder if it starts where Global Compilation left off. Can you imagine songs from the best complete getting and upgrade T_T

[pedronekoi]

Hoping for OMAJINAI perori lol

[prussian blue]

I'm excited by the best album, but I found the title is a bit cheesy (?) I'm not sure I need to buy 50 songs of them while I had already bought most of their discography. And also what does it mean for remastering all the song? different mix?

I hope by releasing a best album doesn't mean they are going hiatus for awhile

[pedronekoi]

^ I don't see any possibility of them going hiatus right now. They are in the peak of their career not only in Japan but also overseas. What I think is that, maybe, this best album marks a change in their career from now on. I can see them releasing english version from now on...

I know, IF they really gone hiatus, I would hope they are busy participating with the olympics. I really wish they could perform there.

[thinkingoutloud89]

^namie also went while peaking. ;P

Remastered means the sound quality is enhanced and there will be a few tweaks here and there, kina like A COMPLETE by Ayumi.

[EndOfTheWorld]

I have a mixed feeling about this release. 50 songs? So it is an all time best? I don't really understand the remastering either. All of Perfume's songs were recorded on modern 21st century equipment, so what improvements could be made?
Nakata always likes his songs mastered LOUD. It's highly doubtful but hopefully there will be an improvement in dynamic range in the remastered tracks.

[Corvina]

It's a bit strange, cause they call it their first best album with a total of 52 songs in the news on their site. The wording is a bit strange. It does read like some form of complete best.

[Ryusei]

It's definitely a complete best of the first 15 years starting with Linear Motor Girl. So I guess they'll include all singles and some fan favorites + the 2 new songs(there was a post asking people to hashtag what songs they want on there and why) Don't quite know what there is to remaster but ok lol
They never really had a proper best album before. The first one is more of a regular album and the global compilation was just released because they were going global as like a compilation of: look here are some cool Perfume songs.
So this feels more proper in that sense and it's cool that they're releasing a solid Best album for their 15th major debut anniversary.
