Back. And only because I am being kept awake by Miss "S" the Pug over here who now has dementia and sundowners syndrome wherein she barks and fusses at night. I so swear I'm going to start taking her Tramadol so at least one of us gets some sleep.

I used the translate to English. It wouldn't take my vote. So...……...I counted down the location of Perfume on the English list then flipped it back to Japanese...…..they are #32 on the list and even in the Japanese version it's still in English.

Here you go!

In my Chrome browser, I just used the Google Translate button and it was a breeze.

I've never participated in a J-pop review. So now that I voted, am I contacted by the Perfume underground? Is this like a Yakuza deal, where I lose a pinkie?

This is Russian propaganda, trying to influence my vote.

Is there any question? Japan should put forward the best they have to offer. Draw the Olympic circles and let Perfume sing and dance inside them!

Another pro-Perfume idea: A remake of the 1957 Japanese classic, The Mysterians. This time the bad dudes from Outerspace will begin wreaking havoc on Tokyo but will be stopped when the Perfume trio focus the power of their electro-voices at the Mysterian's mothership. This idea is only in the screen treatment phase.

Japan's Sexy Zone boy band is currently in the lead, but will that hold once the voting power of the international Perfumiac battalion is unleashed?

You see this, Perfume on my Mind? This is the proper attitude for you to have.

Now please get to voting for Perfume.

Vote rigging is the proper attitude to have?

You have a home in the GOP.

Now please get to voting for Perfume.

Not without being sold on the idea that I should. You've provided no reasons from the perspective that they deserve the vote. Your lawn sign is noted, but legitimate campaigning is in order.

Thanks for calling this to our attention. I attempted to log in my vote for Perfume but slipped and cast a vote for BABYMETAL. Unfortunately this only helped them with their tenth place position while our beloved Perfume is being falsely restrained back in the twenties by the immoral apathy of the non-believers.

In true Yakuza manner, I offer a finger for taking as penance. Yet again, I bear news most unfortunate. My pointer, pinky, thumb and ring finger are of the true faith so the only infidel finger among them suited for taking remains the third one from the left. Or the right. Whichever or both. But I extend it willingly to our beloved and mandatory affection for Perfume.
