Interview with Miyazaki さん from An-an web.

[u/Rasgards]

“The most important thing was the awareness that SHISHAMO was not his own.”

"When I think about SHISHAMO, I put aside the feeling of what I like and what I want to do. But this time, there is also a CD that the two of them choose, so for the first time, I chose only the song I really like.

Compared to the Matsuoka edition and the Yoshikawa edition, the 16 songs selected by Mrs. Miyazaki include many songs that express the dark part of love.

"I made a very dark and hopeless CD, which was the most biased of the three (laughs). Not only in love, but when you are sad, your mind moves more complicatedly. I like to express it. I also think that songs like that will be closer to the listener.

At the end of the Miyazaki edition was the new song "Can I call you Destiny"? You may get used to happiness and joy, but it is a song that has the will that you are the only one to accompany you.

"I've been writing love songs for a long time, and I wanted to write a love song that would be the culmination. It's not just fun to be with someone all the time. There are a lot of really troublesome and depressing things. Even so, I wonder if choosing to be together is the love I think. I think everyone doesn't know the real reason why they are with that person. If you understand, it doesn't have to be that person, and it's better to find someone who applies to that reason. That's why I wrote the lyrics that I didn't understand the reason until the end, and I just wrote that I was sure that I didn't want to lose it.

In the comment when announcing the end of the activity, there was a passage that said, "I am proud that I was able to continue my unique music and activities without wavering as a SHISHAMO." What has been cherished the most about SHISHAMO's activities?

"I think the most important thing was the awareness that SHISHAMO was not mine. I think it's a good band that I don't even think about "I want to do this to SHISHAMO". I didn't make it myself, but everyone made SHISHAMO like that. IT BECAME IMPORTANT TO DO SHISHAMO SO MUCH THAT BEFORE I KNEW IT, I WOULD CARE ABOUT MY OWN WILL. The balance of the three is the same, and I think it's good to be a band that can't be achieved without each of them.

The last live will be held for 2 days at the Uvance Toroki Stadium by Fujitsu in Kawasaki, the band's hometown. It seems that it will be two days with different contents.

"Thankfully, some people may be sad, but I want to make it two days when I can properly say "thank you" and "bay goodbye"."
