This is the song that became the theme for Perfume’s documentary film.

It’s a track that looks back on their journey from debut to the present, and the title is said to mean that we are always standing at the starting line.

True to those words, it makes us realize that we, too, can start at any time.

It’s an up-tempo cheer song that starts with the lyrics “Hooray, hooray.” The track has a great sense of speed, so it feels really good to listen to.

Just like the title suggests, there are lots of lyrics related to Japan, so I think it’s a song you won’t get bored of hearing.

The moment the song starts, you’re instantly drawn in by the guitar and drum melodies.

It’s relentlessly fast-paced from beginning to end, so I used to listen to it whenever I had work that required speed.

I feel like it even makes me work faster.
