Billboard Japan spoke with the duo about the story behind the creation of “Idol.”
EP that sprang from a collaboration with Naoki prize-winning novelists, their thoughts on performing live, and their experience with their ongoing live tourEP, which you released on May 10, was a collaboration with the four Naoki Prize-winning novelists Rio Shimamoto, Mizuki Tsujimura, Miyuki Miyabe, and Eto Mori. Each of them wrote a short story, which you wrote songs for.
ikura: It’s the first time I’ve ever worked on a project for this long. Right after we formed YOASOBI, we had been talking talked about wanting to do a project like this, and I think that now, in our fourth year of breakneck activity, the new EP has encapsulated our true value. The short stories that were written for the project are truly wonderful, and I think the project itself is a great treasure.
one day, and I devoured it, reading up to the latest issue. I had this tremendous creative desire to create something, so, inspired, I started wroting music for it. This all happened about a year and a half ago, and it’s what ultimately led to “Idol.” It was such a miraculous turn of fate.Ayase: It was almost identical, actually. The lyrics are totally different, of course. I wasn’t planning to release it as a YOASOBI song. Instead, I was thinking about maybe releasing it as a Vocaloid song.
Reading the lyrics to “Idol,” as you say, the first half describes Ai as seen through the eyes of a third party. ikura: In the melodic parts, I sang like a cute idol, while in the rap parts I took a dark, hard approach. This duality of light and dark was something that I hadn’t really used in our previous songs, and I’m looking forward to really expressing that contrast when performing live.Ayase: I want people to hear the song performed live in-person. We’ve made special sound effects, and I’ve asked the audio crew to crank up the volume. The first day of our tour, I thought we’d blow the roof off .
