Dear fellow Perfumaniacs:

Here's another recent offering from Perfume, called "Fusion." It's more of a performance than a song, as you'll soon see.

Why "Fusion," you ask? It's because it was filmed at precisely the same time, but at different locations around the globe--A-chan in Tokyo at 21:01:39 local time, Kashiyuka in London at 12:01:39 local time, and Nocchi in New York at 07:01:39 local time. The footage was then spliced together in rotating and interlocking patterns to create a single video.

Cool concept, eh? Have a look at the final result:

Now, if only there was some actual musical talent to go along with their behind the scenes high tech crew.

HOW DARE YOU?? What on earth more talent do you want than what they display on a regular basis, in spades? Show me someone who sounds better!

Well, dozen's come to mind. Let's start with two sisters that have more musical talent in their little finger than your tween stars:

Check out some real female vocal talent. A great female guitar player, an excellent drummer and watch/listen for the exceptional lead guitar player. All in honor of some of the all time best.

No lasers/fancy lights, synthesized music, the real thing.

Shades, NO!! My friend! My adversary! My Founder! My Visionary! Please, I beg you do NOT invite further contamination of this thread! Perfume is my only refuge! My very oasis!

Please, for the love of all that matters, please split off these horrifying posts to their own thread until all that remains is Perfume Perfection!
