[@AverageDrafter]

"My Grandma is a computer born in the Meiji era" - Finally, relatable lyrics!

This song is for kids but honestly (this and every other version I found of it) it's soo good Like I wish I had serves like this when I was a child

[@prfm_setya95]

Its great for child education ♥

[@SmokeyGlucose]

Everything Ryuichi Sakamoto touches is gold.

[@debonidaniel]

This is in a television show for kids.

Modern art.

[@L1ght_7]

Minus the speaking part in the middle, this sounds like this could have been a b-side to Sweet Donuts or Monochrome Effect. Its that cutesy futuristic sound they did a lot back then.

[@ramamurthysidda6206]

Original Computer obachan is an old song released in 1981

[@prfm_setya95]

I wish their newest song like this timeless song ♥

[@nodezsh]

@@prfm_setya95 They might make Pop, but when you write for children the hooks have to be extra simple and extra catchy. And Nakata doesn't like simple hooks, and though they're still catchy, the composition often is very refined so you can't focus only on the main melody. Do listen to the lyrics though. Nakata likes to make grown women cry, and he's very good at it.

1:55 kashiyuka sounds like an angel💖💕

[@nodezsh]

She always does. She has a thin voice but she is plucky on unexpected notes and has perfect timbre so it still stands out, she knows how to pull it off

[@herzen9857]

"The wise one with legs and hips in great shape" something about that line just speaks to me

[@retroman8424]

The song which I didn't know that I needed in my life. Thanks again, Perfume! :)

[@CALAdminWaffle]

The true missing hit from their P3 compilation.

Perfume verのアップ、ありがとうございます。振り付けも可愛かったですよね。 因み「NHKみんなのうた」で、この曲のイラスト・アニメを担当した堀口忠彦(とこいった)さんは、他に「忍者ネギ蔵」・「せんせい ほんまにほんま」・「シャッキシャキの転校生」・「なぜ」・「自動車になったカメの歌」・「ゆかいなめざまし時計」・「へのへのもへじ」・「進め!しんじ君」・「転校生は宇宙人」・「動物園へ行こう」・「虫歯のこどもの誕生日」・「ひげなしゴゲジャバル」・「こだぬき ポンポ」・「雪祭り」などにも同じくアニメを担当しておりました。 残念ながら「動物園へ行こう」のみ映像は現存しておりません。 その当時(1961~1979)の「みんなのうた」の映像や音声を視聴者提供などで探す「NHKみんなのうた」の「発掘プロジェクト」が、2021年12月31日をもって、終了するらしいです。その曲以外にも、たくさん発掘対象曲が、まだ後356曲もあります。もったいない…。素晴らしい企画だったのに…。何せ、「自動車になったカメの歌」・「ゆかいなめざまし時計」・「へのへのもへじ」・「進め!しんじ君」・「シャッキシャキの転校生」の5曲は、このプロジェクトによって映像と音声が見つかり、テレビでまた放映することができたものですから…。

This is fabulous ❤.

How have I not heard this before 😱

[@AJMontgomery]

Yess i love this

[@ririm68]

Yasutaka Nakata made a cover song of Ryuichi Sakamoto and had it performed by Perfume. I'm in tears now. I love this.

[@undifini]

[@akaihys]

fun fact- this song is originally by YMO!

[@AlonsoMontero]

That's how I knew of it, and the Polysics cover is great as well!

[@MametchiWarrior]

The original is actually from the NHK program Minna no Uta

[@killingheros3554]

Tempura Kidz are my favorite version and The Polysics are awesome.

[@Isandauou]

最初モノクロームエフェクトの最初の振り付けと似てる

[@gonpapel7623]

is it a frenesi cover or the frenesi song is already a cover?

[@brightestblue19971]

Neither. It's a cover of a song Ryuichi Sakamoto wrote in 1981 with Shuko Sakai.

[@RyuichiSakuma13]

If only this was subtitled in English....

[@DancerZone]

I like Alt version more

[@MoritakaYTP]

No granny is cooler than the computer granny!!!!!!

[@jeffbeck6501]

Why can't girls be like this in real life? Yuka is so beautiful. All 3 of them are. The dancing is amazing. I love this song, especially when Noochie types on the imaginary computer keyboard. I love Perfume. The best band since Van Halen. I have waited for so long, and did not discover them until 2020, although I had seen their music videos on television but was only moderately impressed. Then I saw their live performances and they were too produced and they already had so many fans they did not need another. And then I was looking for a DIY Linear Motor project on youtube, and saw Linear Motor Girl, and that is the first time I got to see a humorous side to them, and I just went crazy for the song, and especially the chords on the chorus of the song, And then I noticed how amazing the dancing was, and yes, I discovered Yuka, and ... I just mainly liked that one song, and did not go looking around at their other videos until finally I did go searching for other videos, and it was Perfect Star Perfect Style, ...in the red and white outfits around 2007 or 2008 maybe, and that is where I saw Noochie for the first time sing with such passion and abandon. She closes her eyes and opens that big wide mouth, and just cries out the song instead of singing. I was moved by that, and it was that moment that I went searching hard. Then I found One Room Disco, the video outdoors, with the windmill above them, and I saw their pretty clothes, and I saw Yuka doing these amazing moves with her legs, and dancing to what many feel is their best song. The verse of One Room Disco is the prettiest thing ever. Minor 7th chords with a beautiful melody dancing on top of them.

Dear diary....

[@TheSeeking2know]

That was quite an outpouring! Perfume is really a one-of-a-kind musical experience. I also went hard on listening to everything I could find from them after seeing them in a recommendation from Babymetal (and promptly forgot about Babymetal 😅). Polyrhythm is where I noticed A-chan and just loved her expressiveness and looks, and have gotten to love her comic sensibilities and constant engagement with fans (she's my favourite). Secret Secret and Natural ni Koishite became my MVs. I love stories about the early times just starting and their dreams and see them living it, as one of the biggest acts in Japan!

[@jeffbeck6501]

@@TheSeeking2know Thanks for understanding. After 7 months of hard core Perfume listening and watching and studying, I discovered Qulle and Danceroid, and other bands. I love Manako, and Yakko like I do Yuka. Japanese girls are amazing. They are clearly smarter than I am. And they know it. And i know it.

[@TheSeeking2know]

@@jeffbeck6501 I don't know about being smarter than you (you obviously communicate well, and know things about music, vis-a-vis your comment about "7th chords" and Metallica), but the music and artist culture is well developed, compellingly presented and interesting to watch from afar. Dannceroid has disbanded I noticed. They were more of a kawaii maid-like idoal group in the few videos I watched, and they used processed vocals like Perfume. Quelle is more of a vocal/dance group (stronger voices) with a pop-rock feel. "Mic check one two" had a mix of pop, some synth, even rap! And some synchronized dances too. Very interesting. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIKpmZRomd9jhMk Manako and Yako were your favourites. Any specific reasons why? Just curious. To be honest though, in my opinion, Perfume were on another level in terms of dance-focus, precision and the high-level choreographer they worked with (MIKIKO) as well as the music (Nakata) and Rhizomatiks, though they were more techno/electronic focused (with lots pop of course) and used processed vocals to varying degrees. They were also more of an artist than an idol group (though they started out with an idol persona), and the group they "idolized" (no pun intended) were SPEED who were definitely NOT an idol group. Perfume are veterans and big sisters (senpais) to a massive group like Babymetal now.
