Perfume #1 (Weekly)!!! -updated
(Just a short quick note. I may update if when I could find more details.)
According to Sanspo, it was confirmed that Perfume's latest album 'GAME' will be at #1 on Weekly charts. It is after 24 years and 11 month that the album from techno becomes #1 in Oricon history.
The techno artist who got #1 before Perfume was Yellow Magic Orchestra( YMO) lead by Sakamoto Ryuichi, needless to say, one of the founders of the genre techno itself. In other words It was not Denki Groove, Ken Ishii, nor even capsule, but Perfume who could became as popular as YMO in Japan.
I'm now very interested in what our Nakata Yasutaka is thinking about this achievement. Does he envy Perfume as a member of capsule? It seems it is apparent he gonna be the richest musician anyway though. I remember he owns two Nintendo Wii machines, but now he can buy 2,000 PS3. (4.22)
[Updated, 4.23]
Oricon News has a detailed article.

According to it, the number of the sales was 154,000 copies.
It has already been enough to be awareded a gold disc in Japan(100,000). Needless to say, it's almost tripple of ℃-ute or Morning Musume's recent albums. It'll be a matter of time that they'll get a platinum disk.(250,000).
And the miracle occurred to perfume was not only this amazing number of sales. Yesterday, they were invited to a famous radio show from a rock musician and model, Kimura Kaera. However, due to a train accident (Kaera was not injured, though), Kaera couldn't come to the studio, and then members of Perfume hosted the radio show instead of her.
The train accident was true one which happened in reality , so it's not gimmic to sell Perfume. So, now I feel the God of music, or muse, is blessing Perfume.

The more I think about this, the harder it is to deal with. I'm just so overflowing with emotions about this. I watched the Electro World PV just then, and remembered back to the first time I saw them, it makes me want to cry with joy. I'm so proud. I really am living "Happy Ending #1" of WotaM@ster.
I went back through the late Snts' blog for his first mention of Perfume.
http://santoslove.exblog.jp/3194789
I wish he was alive for me to thank him again for introducing me to them. lol
(I wrote about Perfume on my blog, but it's not interesting. But it's my url anyway.)

I didn't remember that he knew about Perfume such long ago... I'm also happy about this news, but I didn't select perfume when I started Wota-M@S... so I'm in the kind of bad ending now lol.
*And I didn't know about your blog. I'll add to the link.

I don't know, but I'm sure nobody can go better than Perfume and Yasutaka.

Buono!'s "Internet Cupid" from their album "Cafe Buono!" is an obvious Perfume ripoff. It's funny that it sound more like Perfume than some of the songs on GAME, since they sound more like Capsule lol

I haven't listened the song so I can't say nothing about the song itself, but the title sounds to me the copy of Our Yasutaka. 'Computer Driving', 'Computer City', 'Eletro World', and 'Internet Cupid' lol.
