[RADIO] Sunday Sessions 1/1

Translated quotes from twitter, was not listening to the actual broadcast so I have no idea about the context.

Full broadcast

TAKA「アメリカでレコーディングして得たものは大きかったんですが、それと同時に、これ自分で出来るな、と思ったんですね」 

TAKA “What I got by recording in America was great, but at the same time, I thought that I could not do it myself. ”

TAKA「1日に5万5千人という数字は、僕らがコントロールできる規模じゃないんですよね。あれで僕らが好きになった人、嫌いになった人。それの大集合の会だったと思うんですよ。」

TAKA “The number of 55,000 people a day is not a scale that we can control. In that, people who like us and people that dislike us. I think it was a meeting of that large gathering.”

藤田たくみ「伝えたいメッセージが、どれだけ、本来の熱量を持って伝わってるかって、大事じゃないですか。」 

TAKUMI FUJITA “Is it not important how much the message you want to convey is transmitted with the original energy?” [technically he uses the word for “calories” but energy is better.. isn’t it? HAHA]

TAKA「ファンにとって）僕らの音楽しかないっていうのはダメだと思うし、次にいかないといけない。そう信じてるんです」

TAKA “(for fans) I think it is useless that we only have music, and we have to go on next. I believe so.”

藤田たくみ「1つのロックバンドが11万人ものオーディエンスを集めてしまう事実。」

TAKUMI FUJITA “The fact that one rock band attracts an audience of 110,000 people.”

TAKA「ホントはやりたくないっすよ。シンドいし。ただ、ここがオレらが命を削る場所だと思うので。」

TAKA “I do not really want to do it. I am tired as well. Simply, because I think that this is the place where we cut [down] our lives.” [???? really not sure about this translation ???]
