Remember when I ran a semi-successful Perfume blog but University, working full time and the rest of my life destroyed it

From CDTV (2016.04.09):

この曲は唯一私たちが「どうしても入れてください」とお願いして入れてもらった楽曲です。

Perfume begged Nakata to put Hold Your Hand on the album, implying it wasn’t supposed to be there in the first place.

It’s worth noting that they then go on to explain that it was the only song they asked Nakata specifically to include whatever happens because it gave birth to the Hold Your Hand MV where it’s not just the 3 of them and instead them connected to all of their fans, even the overseas ones, and that it feels like Perfume and their fans made the MV together. Therefore it’s an important song to them and I guess they felt it was important to include in an album that represents this era.

A documentary of Perfume taken during our American dates that came to pass at long last has been made into a movie exactly as we filmed it. We toured together with our staff who we trust, so it’s really full of our natural selves. Trivial conversations where only the three of us were laughing, wearing too bulky rehearsal clothes for protection against the cold, our no-makeup faces before we got on stage… lol All of these are parts that would normally be cut, but as each represents one scene of this American tour, we’ve kindly!! had the privilege of including them. lol Still, more than anything, despite my dislike of even going overseas, the moment we departed that dream stage we’d finally been granted after three years, I was shocked by myself already putting my next dream into words. That’s how strong I can be when it comes to Perfume. We absolutely hope for many people to see us and Team Perfume on the American stage we battled through. (A~chan)

This time, we’ve made our first movie! The film will make you feel once again that the three of us could never make it on our own and that we’re able to perform and keep striving thanks to the many people who are here supporting us and giving us strength. It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to say that it’s full of everything that makes up Perfume! …I think! (lol) We’d be honored if you enjoyed it even a little bit! (Kashiyuka)

For Perfume’s 15th anniversary since formation, we received the very, very wonderful present of a documentary film. Um, in this movie, you’ll be able to see the whole story behind the magnificent, splendid mistake which occurred at the important stage that was our London concert on the big screen with personal commentary from the individual(s) involved. Aaah, I’d intended to erase it from my memory… But the director wouldn’t let me escape from it (lol) It’s full of Team Perfume’s past, present and future. One more treasure to add to my collection!!! (Nocchi)
