Fans (Are So Cool)

Overview

Fans (Are So Cool) --- 2014-05-26

“Fans (Are So Cool)” is an officially unreleased Kero Kero Bonito song written in 2014. The band ran a special campaign in 2014 wherein any fan that sent a special message to the band’s e-mail address would be included in a future, special song. After entries were closed, the fans' names were inserted onto the track, and it was e-mailed out to the recipients in May 2014. The first reference to the campaign was in April 2014, in a now-deleted track that the band posted to SoundCloud, “Bonito Shopping”, in which the band instructed anyone listening to send them an e-mail for a “special prize”, though it was unknown at the time what exactly it was. Following this, a couple of tweets were posted by the band referencing the “special prize”. The band posted the final tweet on the 26th of May 2014, informing their fans that the special prize had been sent out. Participants of the campaign received a link to the song’s private SoundCloud page, where they could stream and download the song. While still private, the song’s SoundCloud page is still available to anyone who has the link. The song was largely available online until late 2017, when the MP3 file was posted publicly on a Kero Kero Bonito fan forum.
