★ Favorite

'Perfect Daydream' (1984). Most people skip it. Most people are wrong.

★ Lyric Discrepancy & Translation Anomalies

• At 4:52: US lyric says 'dream', regional master vocal take clearly says 'machine'.
• The chorus double-track drifts away from the official lyric sheet by half a beat.

★ Secret Note // Decrypted Transmission

[INTERCEPT / RECOVERED DATA]: The cassette from the Shibuya bin had a label strip under the label. Printed on it: 'BIO-ID 0909-'. The rest is torn off.
