All members cross-talking
-Tell us your thoughts about the concerts that just ended.
P: It was funny. We had the opportunity to confirm how important is for us enjoy the lives, spending time and sharing the same place with the fans is a big happiness.
R: Knowing that many people came only to watch us makes me happy and makes me wanna do my best once again.
T: It was really funny, I'm very grateful to all our fans who came to see us.
-After the live you are about to release your 13th single "Fighting Man".
T: The first time I heard it I thought it has an uncomparable feeling.
S: It's an exciting song for sure.
P: It doesn't lose over its title.
R: It's a song suited for a group, I'd be happy to see the audience follow us with this song.
K: I think it's perfect for lives. I'd like to see boys singing this song.
-You performed it during MS, at the beginning you formed a ring, what did you say?
T: Like "Let's do our best!"
K: That time I said of course "Let's have fun!"
-And Yamashita in the end hugged Nishikido...
P: We were over-excited (lol)
R: Since in the rehearsal he never did it I was really startled. It was nice though.
- (lol) What is the point of the performance?
M: When it goes DODODODODODO!
S: Where!? Isn't it the chorus part!
-When you do the boxing pose?
M: Exactly! Just like the title, the song has a rythm and a positive feeling that make you want to do a fighting pose. The lyrics are great too.
-Which is its message?
P: The will to feel good and to look ahead.
T: The scary things are still scary but you have to go ahead step after step. I'd be happy if this song reaches people who are trying to challenge something.
R: I think that everybody has a weak side. It's not something that we must hide. The message is that nobody is alone, there's always some way to rescue one's self. It's really important.
-Do you have a favourite line?
S: The chorus' beginning "Don't think, feel!". It's a phrase from Bruce Lee, I think that being able to live just like you feel is important. I love the part when it says that when you are lost you can overcome it with enthusiasm.
M: I like the part "If you don't do something anything will begin. You can't lose to youself". I want to start something facing ahead. I think it's a feeling that must be supported.
-It's a meaning similar also to the songs "Gamushara Cha cha cha" and "Wake Up".
K: "Wake Up" is a song that continues "Fly Again" so I'd like you all to listen to it comparing it to Fly Again.
S: I'd like you to listen to "Wake Up" when you wake up.
P: Pointless! (lol)
T: Don't say that.
K: That wasn't really interesting.
S: Oi, what the heck! Today was a big hit (lol).
- (lol) So as NEWS you want to transmit the message of being fair with one's self and do one's best facing ahead.
P: Exactly. This is idol's job. More than job it's an aim.
R: More than aim it's an agreement.
K: "Agreement" (lol). Let's say an enquiry.
- (lol) What do you think it's essential to go ahead without giving up the dreams?
M: Of course NEWS' song, right? With our songs I want to support everybody's lifes.
T: I think it's efforts and a little of luck. Of course you have to do your best but you also need some fortune. But to gain luck you have a lot of efforts. And then courage. The courage to face challenges without fear.
K: Well said! It's courage. A challenger spirit. Fighting is important. I want to win over myself of yesterday every single day!
-Everybody said you got a little taller, did you?
K: What is this so suddenly? (lol) I didn't stop growing. It's scary!
-Yamashita, what about you?
P: I think I'm fine
K: (lol) About what? Are we still talking about heigh?
-No, we're not (lol).
P: I think it's important to never give up. No matter how many walls you have to put down, you have to take one more challenge and overcome them.
-Please, leave a message to Only Star readers!
R: If you will take even a single step ahead thanks to this song it'll be the most great thing for us. We will always be behind you all to push your backs.
T: It's a song about "fights" so I'd want you to take challenges. To do this there will be moments when you'll need some help. I'd be happy if this song will be that help.
P: Listen to this song when you're feeling down, when you have to go to school and do your best. I want to give you energy.
S: It's a song that makes you wanna go ahead, I'd like you to listen to it when you need to walk a little faster.
R: To walk faster?
S: In my mind it sounded a little different...I can't believe it.... (bitter smile)
R: Like, to go ahead step after step?
S: Yes, I wanted to say that!
K: Since it also has a party tune, please sing it at karaoke! So the last, go Massu!
M: When you need a little push, when you're not feeling fine, well, it's a rythm suited also to when you feel fine, so please listen to it always!
They're really dorky XD Or should I say...Shige is dork XD
I really really really loved Ryo, Tegoshi & Pi's message at the end T_T It moved me!
And I can't wait to listen to "Wake Up" now that we know it's the sequel of "Fly Again"! And I'll put it as alarm clock ring as Shige said LOL
