BIGBANG 『pressure! Open up about mindset and the thought for the album!』
A turning point album for BIGBANG
Before this interview, you’ve been a guest for Telephone Shocking corner on ‘Waratte Iitomo’ (Fuji TV), aren’t you nervous?
【V.I】 We’ve been on the show ‘Waratte Iitomo!’ before, so we were not that nervous.
Unfortunately, you guys didn’t get the strap.。
【V.I】 Yeah. Since we are gyudon (beef bowl) maniac, so we expect the audiences also want to eat gyudon. A little bit disappointing.
Gyudon is everyone’s source of power?
【D-LITE】 I think if there’s no gyudon, I can’t do anything.
【SOL】 If there’s no gyudon, activities in Japan….
【D-LITE】 It will be meaningless. We come to Japan just to eat gyudon.）
【SOL】 Just joking! (laugh)
Let’s end the gyudon story here (laugh), this time BIGBANG is releasing an album after 1 year, please send message to the fans who had been waiting.
【G-DRAGON】 Over the last year, so many thing had happened. After that, finally we were able to complete the album, and there was also pressure. Each member, committed their own time while preparing this, so I had a deep feeling after it’s compleated. For the fans who had been waiting for us, from now on we will concentrate on our stage and we want to show all of you our cool appearance.
【D-LITE】 Like G-Dragon said, we went through so many things last year. But all member get through it, we’ve back as one and completed the album. YG family staffs also said that up until now the album is the best one. We made the album with confidence while having fun, so we hope that the fans will also enjoy it.
【SOL】 Realeasing the album after so many things that happened, it’s really means a lot for me personally and also for BIGBANG. I think it’s an album that become our turning point. From now on, our color will become more stronger. For fans in Japan, thank you for always waiting for us, we’re really appreciate it.
【V.I】 A new album after 1 year, in every meaning, I think that we had upgraded, as a human also we’ve grown up. For this album, I think that each member feels so much confident. So, I think that this is really the best present to all fans. In future, we hope to come to Japan more often to do promotions.
【T.O.P】 Same like others, I think the album『ALIVE』shows a new shape of BIGBANG as one. Also , so far we only recorded 1 or 2 Japanese songs per album but this time we challenged ourselves and recorded many songs. And also we tried hard to make the Japanese lyrics. I hope everyone will have so much fun listening to the album.
【SOL】 This time, m-flo’s VERBAL is incharge of FANTASTIC BABY’s Japanese lyrics. As for the rhythm and contents, I think it’s harmonize the Korean lyrics more than before.
“ALIVE” represents BIGBANG’s situation.
The title ‘ALIVE’ contains so many thoughts, but for this time what’s the theme or concept that BIGBANG wants to convey?
【D-LITE】 The meaning of ‘ALIVE’ is ‘to live’ ,and up until now the frozen things slowly melted down. With that I hope we’re be able to convey our passion to the musics and to the stage.
【SOL】 The first song, INTRO is a short track but it’s represent BIGBANG’s situation. In the lyrics, there’s a part shows that someone is falling down, but it’s simply not like that. It shows a sense of freedom and express the meaning of ‘still alive＝ALIVE’.
