Hey! Say! JUMP LIVE TOUR 2016 DEAR Pamphlet
- Special Yamada Ryosuke & Arioka Daiki - My Girl Cross Talk -
Yamada: The time when it is decided to form a unit with Daichan, it felt kind of strange.
Arioka : It was strange for me too. It's the first time for me and Yamada to sing together properly.
Yamada: That's right. Then the time the unit was formed, “What are we both going to do?”, we discussed that “We can go with cute or cool way.” As the result, we both liked dancing, so we decided “Let's go with the cool way.”
Arioka : As we’re at this point, you said you wanted to dance to a different type of song than Hey! Say! JUMP's.
Yamada: Yes, then let's compete in captivating/fascinating way this time. “We want to dance to this song”, from several candidate songs, we agreed on “My Girl”.
Arioka : It's a mature and relatively slow tempo song. Then, we shared the nuance of the lyrics to the writer.
Yamada: We had the lyrics written on the theme of the difference in the approach between the two men to one woman.
Arioka : As for the song, we were a bit worried because it was a rambling/real R&B song that we had never sung before with JUMP.
Yamada: I know right, at first, we’re really worried.
Arioka : I have more rap and Yamada has more singing parts, so the parts are separated properly for the two of us. However, I was asked to rap the part that was originally a melody, so it was more difficult than usual and recording was a bit struggling. It feels like I was exploring this and that while singing.
Yamada: I was singing while listening to Daichan’s part. I am not good with rhythm, and I couldn't rap at all, so I honestly jealous, “How nice that Daichan can rap~”.
Arioka : Hahaha! But I'm happy to hear that.
Yamada: Also, Daichan's voice kinda cute, so I was looking forward to seeing how people would fall in love with this song! Looking at it, it's finished in a cool way...It was a bit surprising, and I think Daichan's fans would like it.
Arioka : I wonder what they will think. By the way, Yamada was as cool as I had imagined. This kind of song is perfect!
Yamada: It was our first time to form a unit together in our 9th year (after debut), but when we tried it, it didn't feel like it was our first time right.
Arioka : I've known Yamada since you was a 5th grader, and we've known each other for 12 years now.
Arioka : Compared to the past, we have fewer opportunities to meet in private, but our relationship has not changed.
Yamada: Certainly, it doesn’t change.
Arioka : I think Yamada understands me a lot, right?
Yamada: Yes, I know the small changes that other people don't notice without words. For example, I think Daichan is a little stuffy right now (lol).
Arioka : Ahahaha! I didn't show it at all!
Yamada: Well, basically, Daichan rarely gets angry. And now you look like want me to leave it alone.
Arioka : Sometimes you ask, "Is anything happened?". Yamada, on the other hand, is easy to understand because your emotions can be seen.
Yamada: I am easy to understand! (lol)
Arioka : Also, I talk to Yamada about things like consultation and private matters.
Yamada: Me too, I’m reporting my current situation, “Now I am doing this” to Daichan, right? That's what I always do since long time ago.
Arioka : Yamada is tight-lipped mouth so it will make me feel at ease.
Yamada: It's just that I don't have any friends to tell about it..Oi! (lol) I wonder if there's anything I haven't told Daichan.
Arioka : I'm also introducing my friends to you!
Yamada: You did. Somehow, Daichan and I are like childhood friends.
Arioka : Yeah, close to that. Always easy going.
Yamada: That's why the work on the unit this time was so smooth, even though our music preferences are completely different, the image that we want to do click into it together!
Arioka : "This is nice, isn't it?" "How about this?" "It's good. What about this?" "Ah, it’s good." It was done before we knew it.
Yamada: There was never a conflict of opinion.
Arioka : Also without any compromise.
Yamada: When deciding on the song, I thought “It's hard to attract people with this song” and Daichan thought the same thing. In addition, the choreographer whose name came out, "If it's this kind of song, I'd like to ask him to do it," our thinking are the same. So, even after the choreography was done, we felt like we wanted to challenge ourselves a little more.
Arioka : The dances that we imagined were the same.
Yamada: And then, we decided to ask for a little change, although the choreography is not that difficult.
Arioka : At this point, it's going well so far, so I guess all we have to do is deciding on the outfits.
Yamada: That's right. The black-and-white outfits that Daichan suggested seems interesting.
Arioka : The two of us were also thinking about the direction that will create a lively mood.
Yamada: At the concert, it will be fascinating!!
Arioka : The two of us sing and dance together without a backdancer! Also, how much we can make this song our own and give a cool performance is also the point/highlight of this song.
Yamada: Yup. Anyway, I hope everyone will look forward to it.
Arioka : We were together in “Kindaichi Shounen no Jikenbo”, so I'm sure many fans are familiar with this combi, but I hope we can show a different side of ourselves. Please look forward to see the gap of ourselves!
Yamada: Well, the fans might be able to imagine me singing and dancing this kind of song, but they wouldn't be able to imagine Daichan performing like this as a unit. It's a good opportunity to show Daichan's new side that's different of the variety show - the “Feigned Ignorant Daichan” (lol), and I want to fully feature it! I know about this side, but it's a surprising aspect for everyone.
Arioka : From start to the end, there’s no smile or fooling around!
Yamada: Ah, but I think I should let you wear shorts. That's exactly what Daichan’s image is.
Arioka : Eh!? I already said there's no fooling around! (lol)
