iri – Wonderland (Music Video)
Wonderlandiri

This is a song that collaborated with Sony’s WALKMAN.

It shows scenes of the artist sitting and singing softly inside a certain shop, intercut with different people in different places.

There aren’t any flashy, high-energy moments, but it’s a stylish music video you can quietly take in—more like something you gaze at than something that pumps you up.

A track included on SIRUP’s first album, released in 2019.

It’s also a collaboration with BIM, a young rapper who’s a friend of his.

The softly retro vibe and heavy use of slow-motion blend perfectly with the two young artists living in the now, making it incredibly stylish!

This is a highly entertaining PV from Perfume that delights viewers.

It not only showcases Perfume’s signature dance performance, but also incorporates footage from past PVs, packing their journey into this one video.

It’s a record-setting PV that traces their path as they have walked the road to stardom since their activities began in 2000.

Produced by Spikey John.

In keeping with the Road Trip theme, it’s a slightly bad-boy–flavored music video of friends riding in a car and having fun.

You can even see people riding on the outside of the car—something you’d never encounter in everyday life—because it creates a purely virtual, MV-only world.

It’s a video packed with yankii (Japanese delinquent) culture.

The music video, created based on ART’s concept of “realizing personal desires,” became a hot topic for its strong storytelling.

A man brandishing a chainsaw appears, as does a baby doll, expressing a surreal worldview.

The video insists that asserting individuality and being true to oneself isn’t just neat and tidy.
