Songs that have never been performed live?

Excluding Fumetsu no Anata and Cold Sleep ofc. I just got curious all of a sudden if there has been any song they've never performed live, or only performed once ever?

For example, with Babymetal, they've never played BBAB live (not yet at least lol). And they have another song called Tales of the Destinies, which has only been performed once due to how complex the choreo is.

Anyone have a high quality version of this photo?

Or where’s the origin of this poster because I want it

Looking for a high-quality copy of Cosmic Explorer (Standing Edition / Live Experience Edit)?

Hey PTA! I’ve been trying to find a good version of the 6th Tour 2016 'Cosmic Explorer' Standing Edition 'Live Experience Edit' to watch.

I managed to find it streaming on Bilibili here:https://www.bilibili.tv/en/video/4785955117075968

The problem is that the video quality on this link is pretty low and heavily compressed. The file size is tiny, so whenever the fast choreography starts or the heavy concert lasers kick in, the video becomes super blocky and pixelated.

I'm trying to watch this on a large screen setup where compression artifacts are really noticeable. Does anyone happen to have a high-bitrate Blu-ray rip/encode of this specific disc, or could point me toward where it lives in the community Google Drive / adthrawn archives?

Thank you so much! 😊

it almost sounds like yasutaka produced this

I don't know about some of you, but I can definitely hear circa Flash Back/More! More! More! '07-'08 capsule sound in this song. specifically those toshiko-like vocals. what do y'all think?

Sayonara Plastic World, get behind me!!

Today in 'songs y'all hate but I do like', I'll speak of Sayonara Plastic World.

Okay, to be honest, it took a long while until I decided to give this track a chance; and it's mainly because it fits under (what I have named) the 'lowkey all sound the same' category out of Perfume's discography... and I'm pretty much sure that's the same reason most people don't really feel it. But the truth is that it's a very good song.

On instrumental terms, I think it's a perfect closing track to 'Plasma'. For me, it is the album that better portrays the classic essence of Perfume, but showing us how much they have evolved as singers and in concept. So, back to the POINT (another bop), SPW feels like a song from 'Complete Best' or even 'Game', but adding up the sophisticated retro vibe that defines Perfume's development, which would later peak at Nebula Romance.

The lyrics seem a little silly but at the same time, the point is kind of right lol.

I'd like to add, I kind of understand this track came at a very bad timing considering there's better tracks in this album for them to be promoted, and people back then surely was also tired of this type of sound, but now, I think it even feels nostalgic.

Feel free to share your thoughts. Shall I speak of Tiny Baby next??? lol

How do we feel about Cosmic Explorer?

My cold sleep deep dive continues and I was really looking forward to this - mainly because of nostalgia, amazing cover art (the one with the big faces) and a cool title.

But it’s not really the one 🤨 it feels like a conscious effort to change the sound, which is not bad in itself but it feels like quite generic mid-2010s EDM. And the album versions of the singles feel worse than the single mixes, especially Flash.

If only they’d included Display and Toumei Ningen…

I have faith it’s going to get better with FP (or at least Plasma) though

f5ve - Electro World (PERFUME COVER)

Sayaka, Kaede, and Miyuu of LDH group f5ve just released a cover of Electro world!

The members have said in multiple interviews that they're fans of Perfume and that they are an inspiration to them as artists.

(Secretly praying Nakata will write them a song one of these days~)
