Natakki Tengoku Transcription  

Dada and Kalm's words are exact, but not the translator's.

T: So you have a new CD.
Dada: On the cover, these aren't us, these are life sized dolls I made of us. Not like we tried really hard and rolled our eyes back into our heads or anything...
T: So do you discuss the songs when you make them?
Dada: We don't really discuss them. What do you do? Dada: When the songs are done, the lyrics come to me on their own. Actually, it's really only one word. After, if I believe in that word and flesh it out I figure I can't go wrong...
T: And how did you two meet?
Dada: Well, at performances, no wait, and various band events, much like today, we went and did nothing of any importance. And while we were doing that we ended up chosing songs and thinking of things we could do along to them, and then we ran out of ideas. After that, we decided it might be easier to make our own songs. That's how it started.
T: We've got some questions from the fans. Do you have a food you hate?
Dada: Bean paste. Someone has but to call that name and I wanna run far away.
T: Better not say it then.
Dada: Once there was a sandwich called "Siberia" in the convenience store. There was no indication what was inside. So I picked it up, and was like "what is this?" and the minute I figured out it was bean paste I went into paralysis.
Kalm: cherry tomatoes.
T: How about the big ones?
Kalm: Those are okay.
T: Why?
Kalm: They taste different.

T: Anything else?
Dada: We had a live yesterday, and today we had one in Ikebukuro, and we've been stretched out and there are all these vibes remaining, and I think tomorrow's gonna be uber-great. So please come.
Kalm: If we close our eyes, I am sorry.
Audience: *laughs*
Dada: We'll take you to a place of no return.

Apparently Dada doesn't like this interview, I have heard from a friend. I have never met or talked to Dada.
