hono: i've been looking forward to this! like... mio-chan and karin-chan's convo are super funny
mio: no, no, karin-san is the funny one
Karin: hey, you got it reversed. you're the funny one!
hono: the three of us been talking a lot these days, right?
mio - karin: yeah
Q the part of the lyrics that goes "life is wonderful, you made me realize" is especially memorable to me. please tell us your thoughts when you first heard the song!
mio: i get it. that lyric is really good, isn't it?
hono: yeah!
mio: when i first read the lyrics, this part was the one that immediately catch my eyes
hono: when we filmed this part, we didn't know how it will look up being. first karin-chan stood alone at the front, and then we faced each other, and the members felt as if it was a word said to us. it made me love this lyric even more
mio: when we first heard it... we heard it separately, no?
hono: right, it's rare for us to listen to a new song together. we each got the file and so we listened it on our own
mio: even when we are together, we would each listen with earphones lol
hono: right, right. so how was it?
Karin: it... feels new, so to say. it was something that we didn't expect. i thought it was interesting. like, sakurazaka sure likes to surprise! and that is fun
mio: it is the kind of song that we never have before, so i thought it's nice that we are able to take on something new at this timing
hono: i feel like we earned a new color, it's a song that you can really imagine getting performed live. i wondered if this song could take a lead at the national stadium, and i thought it'll be perfect for an outdoor concert
mio: right! with a vibe like this. the lyrics also has a lot of overlaps with sakurazaka46, and when the buddies sees the performance, i'm sure that it will something good
hono: its brightness gives an emotional feeling insteads
mio: the lyrics are emotional too!
Karin: when making the mv, i felt like on the verge of crying. the second verse... i looked at everyone, right? and it's so painful
mio: from karin-san's pov. after this, there are scenes that shows karin-san's pov, and it made me cry
Q i was so happy that karin-chan became the center that i bragged to many people that my oshi is the center this time...
all 3: cute!
Q karin-chan mentioned that she worked hard to create the mv together with members and staff, but i'd be happy if you could tell me certain scenes that you give more attention or other backstories!
Karin: (the mv) this time was really difficult, no? like... it's a bit hard to decide what expression we should show
hono: the song is cheerful, but the mv is not really one filled with it
mio: when i think about it, this song allows us to make many different expressions, right?
hono: yeah, in a way we are free to do what we want
mio: right, that made it difficult. karin-san got nto a lot of , like asking what expression she should show
Karin: and it's not like the director has a solid idea either. usually, everything would already be set already, but this one felt like we are doing it as we go, and i really enjoyed that
hono: right, it really felt like we are creating it together
mio: through trial and error. i'd be happy if it could be like so too from now on
Karin: it might evolve into something different!
mio: i'm sure it will change again
hono: i think that is the same with every songs. from doing it for the mv to performing it at concerts and such, and then us growing more fond of it the more we perform it, so i'm sure that this song will change as well
Karin: i can't wait!
Q please do make commentary of the mv!
Karin: the mic stand sure was new
mio: it was heavy! during the rehearsal, we did it with something resembling a mic stand, but it was so heavy that the choreo ended up change in the spot. it was the first time i realized how heavy mic stands are
hono: there is still no performance of the song yet, so it's something to look forward to, whether there will be changes about it. and this mv was also... the first time we spoke so much with the director, even though we have worked together several times already
Karin: it made me so happy
mio: we have so many lipsync part in this mv, and each of us got called for individual filming, which happened first thing in the morning for me. i was the first one to film it! and that time, we were able to speak at length
hono: and we ourselves are not exactly the sociable type, so we weren't so active about it, but when we learned that it's okay to interact with him we just go for it lol. it was the same with everyone
mio: we were all so happy to be able to communicate with him... i wonder what does those numbers (in the mv) means
hono: right, we didn't ask him about it
mio: when i saw the overhead shot with our names and numbers displayed i thought, "oh! you can film it like this too?"
hono: it was like, "what is yours like? yours is written in that kind of font!", "oh, that's so like you!"
mio: "all the fonts are different! her and hers looks so cool!". and to have the band members playing in front of us...
hono: they were so cool
Karin: apparently they got sheets of the music score, which they then used to practice
mio: even though there was no voice, they were actually playing this song!? that's so cool!
hono: and it was the first cut with dance scene. the first and suddenly it changes to a live band session, it really raised my excitement
Q i would love to see the last scene with white penlights actually made to happen at the national stadium
hono: when this mv was finished, i wondered how it will be conveyed,
mio: i'm sure that the director must have made this with the national stadium in mind as well
hono: when it comes to sakurazaka, there is this... joy with live performances, and we hope to be able to express that through this
mio: i'd be happy if we could see this sight at the national stadium. it would be really emotional
hono: please look forward to it
Karin: please do
Karin message at the end
"as we have the national stadium coming soon, i hope that this single could help to lead towards it. and i would be happy if this song could be something that we create with fans. in the intro there is a part that i sing, right? the "uuu~ uuu~" part. i hope that the fans can sing that together with me. wouldn't it be great? to sing it together while remembering all the memories that we've been through until now... it would perfect this song. please do sing it!"
