A new mini album to be released in Japan?

[Murkskis]

This video was actually recorded during early May after they came back from Canada and after the Royal Wedding finished...

Oh, I'm sorry. Probably you are right. I watched it once again and James said at one point, that SAT exams were planned for the following week. I don't know exactly when SAT exams take place in UK, but probably in May.
Thanks for the update.

Cool video. I'm sad that James didn't get to talk more.

I think the question about their mothers was a real question because they were talking about Modonna Verde which is about a mother and daughter, and the trust/love between them. So that's how the interview question was tied in.

I think Cassius looks a lot older than the last couple of video's. Crazy how fast they grow up.

Also, who can forget Ralph's epic moments in the video, such as "The streets are SOOOOOOOOO clean" or "WELL DONE WILL!!!!". Kid simply cracks me up, and he does seem like one of those "perfect sibling"...

Great interview..

They talk about going back to Japan?
I thought the Usa was most lightly this year?
Or could they be going to Japan for there spring tour next year?

[lacrymosa2]

Loved the interview! James does look and sound quite a bit older, to me. Ralph is so funny, chiming in about how clean the streets are and congratulating Will on the wedding...

What are SATs? We have SATs, but we say it differently (S-A-T) and you take it in either 11th or 12th grade.

I think the "SAT" that they are referring to is somewhat like our SAT9s.

EMI Japan's Libera site mentioned that they will be heading to Japan in 2012. I am still surprised at the early commitment date though.

Oh I know why she asked it - that didn't escape me. But it was pointless. What are they going to reply "Well thanks for asking me, actually my mother is a right old bag and I hate her". There was only one predictable reply they could give so it was a pointless question.

I laughed when I heard Cassius cutting off the discussion !

"well, that's all we've got to say. We just love them."

Well done Cassius ! Too bad Miss Journalist

Does this have the impact on their futures that the "O levels" have? They mentioned "revising" (studying) for them, so I would guess they have some sort of impact on their future?

I was told by Yuki from Japan that the interviewer is Takako Imai, the same woman who directed Venus in Eros. She acts as their Japanese interpreter, so she must have been asked by EMI Japan to do this interview in London. She may have asked the "mother" question, because it was around the time of Mother's Day in Japan (and in the US, too). Mothers like to hear kids gush about how wonderful mums are.

Another anonymous poster to the blog wrote to give this link to explain SAT's - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_C ... assessment" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

They said it's kind of like the SAT9s, but are taken during years 3, 6, 9.

After transcibing the interview for the blog, I noticed another cute part. Upon being asked what they like about Japan, Kavana says he loves Japanese food. Ralph interjects, "And the streets are so clean!" Kavana doesn't miss a beat. He says, "They're tidy" and continues talking. That kid has such a quick mind! Great poise.
