Random Ass Post Vol. 7: Brought to you by the end of Perfume's "Time Warp"

Random ass post Vol. 7 featuring the end of Perfume's "Time Warp" | Random J Pop

The way Perfume's "Time Warp" just came and fucking went. A video, a few performances AAAAAAAND that's it. It's a far cry from songs like "Flash", which Perfume promoted the shit out of and ran into the ground. Sure, you could say it's because it had a tie-in with a film - but so did "Mugen Mirai" and "Saisei", and they didn't get the level of promo that "Flash" got.

On one hand it's a shame, but on the other, it's probably for the best. "Time Warp" is a cute song, but it doesn't have the sticking or staying power that some of Perfume's other singles do, so I'm fine for it to not outstay its welcome. I was over it pretty quickly, because it doesn't really offer much. The same goes for the music video. It's a cute thing to watch once or twice, but you're not going back to it again, and it seems fans aren't neither - because only recently did the video pass 1 million views after a whole month of being released. Meanwhile many other established acts are dropping videos and racking that up in a day.

Oh, well. Let's see what we get for the follow-up single.
