1. it WAS Nirvana which influenced the guitar smashing

I think you mean Pete Townshend.

But they mention Nirvana in the interview. On the other hand, they do mention British rock so it wouldn't be that surprising if they know The Who.

Recent interview: http://musicshelf.jp/?mode=static&html=series_c24/index

(Only translating stuff I'm sure about and things I'm not too lazy to read

)

Favorite items:
HARUNA: iPod (birthday present from her mother last year)

MAMI: Nintendo DS (lately, she's been playing Pokemon HeartGold/SoulSilver)

TOMOMI: Perfume (a fan gave her some Jill Stuart)

RINA: Digital camera (no description, because they messed it up and she has the same one as TOMOMI)

Q1: Tell us your everyday rules for living!
HARUNA: Use a face steamer before putting on makeup.
MAMI: Stretch.
TOMOMI: Don't forget to say "thank you", "good morning, and "sorry".
RINA: Wash.

Q3: What was your most memorable recent dream?
HARUNA: Yesterday, I dreamt that I got in a bathtub.
MAMI: I saw another member walking while holding hands with a man.
TOMOMI: A dirty dream♡
RINA: I washed my head with body soap.

Q5: What are some nice things you like to hear from guys?
HARUNA: "This is nice."
MAMI: Simple things like "cute"?
TOMO: "I enjoy being with you." ahaha
RINA: "Cute♡"

Q7: HARUNA, what animal would you compare the other members to?
HARUNA: MAMI = cat, TOMOMI = squirrel, RINA = rabbit

Q8: Who comes to mind first when you think of a female rock artist?
HARUNA: Avril Lavinge-san
MAMI: YUKI-san (from JUDY AND MARY)
TOMOMI: Mariko-san from Midori
RINA: Nawo-sama from MAXIMUM THE HORMONE

Additional questions based on the answers:
Q: TOMOMI-chan's "dirty dream"? (laugh)
TOMOMI: I can't say (laugh).
MAMI: She's pretty dirty (laugh).
TOMOMI: Is this something that I can answer? Everyone will hear this, then, Manager will call an NG (laugh). (NG = no good, i.e. outtake)

Q: HARUNA, why did you choose those animals?
HARUNA: TOMOMI has the relentless actions of a squirrel. MAMI is free like a cat, and she also likes them herself. RINA's personality is rabbit-like.

Q: So, what animal would you compare HARUNA-chan to?
TOMOMI: Hamster! (unsure what the rest says)
RINA: She eats a lot (laugh). She mumbles when she eats.
TOMOMI: Yes, that's a great way to describe it. It should be filmed as a CM (laugh).

Q: Now then, what is each member's role?
RINA: HARUNA is the coordinator. (something about being able to calm the three of them down if they fight)
HARUNA: RINA is the chatterbox. She has an energetic role, and sets the mood most of the time. (unsure about the rest)

Q: MAMI-chan?
HARUNA: MAMI is a strange character.
TOMOMI: First of all, MAMI has a habit of calling herself "oira". At this point, she is not changing that. She has a unique view of the world. ("Oira" is a variation of "ore". "Ore" is used by males, meaning "I" or "me".)
MAMI: I've been saying "oira" since elementary school. I don't like how "watashi" or "Mami" sounds.

Q: And what about TOMOMI-chan?
HARUNA: Baka (laugh). (stupid, idiot, silly, etc.)
MAMI: Erotic (laugh).
RINA: Erotic, erotic (laugh).

Thank you so much lamb!

I've read only a few questions so far, but I have to say this: Tomomi is sooo bad. She had a dirty dream!

Sorry, I just...I really laughed hard after reading that. Their answers are all so varied, as if they were interviewed all separately. It goes from "Don't forget to say thank you, please, and sorry!" to "wash up".

jr. · « **Reply #24 on:** October 22, 2009, 10:39:43 AM »

Tomomi's statement about the dirty dream really surprised me.

is she really serious about these answers?

mcspiral · « **Reply #25 on:** October 22, 2009, 12:43:47 PM »

Nice one lamb. I'm surprised also about Tomomi.

You're welcome guys and yuup like lambchopsuey said it's on their myspace as well

It's subbed in french though o.o

Thanks again, Sushi, for the translation and posting! =3 Does anyone know a way I can download the video in that link though? I'd like to have a copy of it, just randomly.

I'm not sure how I'd be able to, since it's not YouTube, obviously, and I only know how to use YouTube downloaders.

>_<

^ Oh, thanks, but I had it downloaded already.

Didn't get to me soon enough~ I'm too impatient, I end up trying on my own.

I remember that with my old installation of Firefox (before I reinstalled my OS), I had a CacheViewer addon, and it helped me get the mp3s of music playing in the background of sites. So I installed it, and sure enough, found an .flv file of the video, and voila.

I know, I really do have no life.

But thanks! =3

suicune141 · « **Reply #29 on:** October 24, 2009, 08:23:49 PM »

Aha! Finally! I knew I had found another interview online before, and here it is! (Had to dig through lots of Japanese site names in My Favorites to find this)

http://music.blog.so-net.ne.jp/brandnew08_042

It seems like it was from last year, around the time they released DOLL. I'mma try to translate this, but I know it will be extremely difficult and probably suck. If anyone wants to try with me, that's cool. ^.^
