Q.) How did you feel before the live concert?A.) I was very nervous and worried about some things.
Q.) What were you worried about?A.) Because I have to sing many songs, one after the other, I was trying very hard to remember all the lyrics.
Q.) Were the lyrics memorized?A.) It was a challenge singing and hearing the words, while trying to memorize the lyrics.
Q.) Did you sleep well last evening?A.) Although I did sleep, it did not happen till morning came. My eyes opened every hour and I did not sleep well.
Q.) What was the point of today's clothing?A.) It was my first time wearing red out in public with a big bow in front of my chest. My skirt also had rabbit prints which are my favorite things.
Q.) What did you think of the live concert?A.) Today, to everyone who came, I can say that, "It was pleasant." Yuko wanted to make it a concert that could be enjoyed by everyone together.
Q.) In the year 2005, does the special feeling, "I really want this person to see the live, " exist?A.) Now in the 21st Century, a person being so busy at work and with singing, I don't really think about that.
Q.) Lately, what has been the "boom"?A.) Waking up early! It has been happening every morning since New Year's at 7 A.M. I've stopped eating so much sweetened vegatables with rice and instead, just eat regular steamed rice. I've also like pasta and tomato sauce lately.
Q.) Can you say something about your hopes for the live concert?A.) Although I was nervous about the live, it has already been one year since I debuted my first song. From last year till now, singing has become my favorite thing. I will try my hardest so that everyone can enjoy my music. Thank you for your support!
