Here's a summary of the interview:
MC: a question from satomi-san. we have a lot of other questions, too. she says, "the new single purple line is out now, and a new album will be released on 1/23." the fans are really waiting for this. the title "t", how did you decide on this title?
JS: we discussed... with the staff... and decided on it. [lol! he said it so dryly!] "t" was the best title.
YH: this is our 3rd album, so we wanted to have a title with a number of meanings behind it.
JJ: we thought a while about what would work, and we came up with "t". "t" in "tohoshinki". "top," "third."
JS: "title." "trick." / YH: "try."
YC: and since the 2nd album was "five in the black," we wanted something simpler and with an impact. so we decided on this title.
MC: so when "t" came up, everyone was "yeah, that's it!"
ALL: yeah, "that's it!!" / "this is it!" [lol!]
---
MC: when did you take the jacket photo? there are a lot of different photos in the cd jacket.
JS: r....rather recently. [so cute~]
CM: about 1 month ago...
---
MC: satomi-san asked this, too: "in the album 't,' what's your favorite song?"
JS: from leader YH. / YH: why from me...
YC: ok, next! / YH: ok, next, CM! [^^]
CM: for me, "clap." [the other members do the clap part of the song. so cool!] because i think when you listen to the song, you'll get excited, so when we perform it on the arena tour, i think it'll be a hot stage.
MC: oh, it's a song that would be exciting to perform live. next, who?
---
YH: "trick." [YC and JJ sing the song. love it!^^] it's a song that feels like a lot of songs mixed together, and even if you listen a little bit, it'll be appealing.
MC: and it's the 1st track. for this album, did you have some input on the order of songs? [the order to be performed live and promoted]
YC: for this album, the song order was... decided by... the staff.
YH: but this 1st track, even when i listen to it, i think it would be the 1st song to be performed live.
JJ: oh, that's next wk!
MC: oh, yeah. it's just my guess.
YH: it's next wk, but you have a sense about it.
MC: i think if everyone listens to it, they'll get the same feeling, too. that it might be the 1st song.
JJ: ok, hint. "trick" is...
ALL: ah!! next wk! next wk! [lol! i think it'll be "trick," too.^^]
---
JS: for me, the song that YC and JJ wrote together, "kiss shita mama, sayonara." [composed by YC & JJ, lyrics by YC]
YC: ah, it's spoken. [lol! his acting is hilarious!!]
MC: ah, this song, it's in the 2cd/2dvd version. this song is amazing!
YH: this song is amazing!
MC: even from the title.
YC: "kutsushita mama." ah, no, "kiss shita mama"... [rofl! "kutsushita" means "socks"! the title is "kiss shita mama, sayonara" meaning "just as we kissed, goodbye"]
it's because recently, JJ's been joking "kutsushita" so much... [aw, so cute!! and jj's laughing so hard!]
MC: this is a really sad song, right? please tell us more.
YC: JJ, please explain.
JJ: it's about a girl who was really loved, but the girl has passed away, and the guy is left alone. and as he thinks about the girl, he reminisces and longs for her. at the end of the song, it goes, "sayonara" and...
YH: by the way, that's JJ's part.
JJ: it's my part, but the point it, even though it says, "sayonara," the meaning is that he wants to see her again.
MC: ah, even though he can't see her again, he wants to see her. ah, "kutsushita mama"... [lol!]
did other members also say it's a good song?
JS: i produced it. [lol!!] when i heard it, i thought it's a good song, so i recommended to the staff... [lol!]
CM: JS, nonsense. [lol!]
MC: this song, really, please listen to it.
---
JJ: for me, "forever love."
MC: why? / JJ: eh? [so cute!]
JJ: one time, one of the staff was playing the song on his pc, and i heard it faintly from really far, and as soon as i heard it, i got goosebumps. so i thought, "ah! this must be because the song is a good song!"^^ rather than my thinking it's a good song or a bad song, my body felt the music.
MC / YC: ah, the heart felt it...
JS: the body reacted first... [lol! JS with the dry humor. lol!]
JJ: ah, goosebumps reacted to the music? lol.
---
YC: there are so many, but "love in the ice." it's a sad ballad song, and we performed this live for the 1st time at soul power last year. and for the 1st time, i saw people in the audience crying. as we were singing the song.
MC: when you saw that, you get affected by it. and you still remember the face of the person who was crying.
YC: sure, i remember.
JJ: soul power is for avid music lovers, and since it was our 1st time there, we felt the pressure to sing really well. so when we saw the audience crying as we sang the song...
JS: we were also touched by it.
JJ: i felt, we did it!
MC: ah, that the song reached the audience.
[cam on YC. lol, YC!]
JS: acting...
