SoulExperience is an asset to this community
Default If you could ask Ringo + The band questions...

What would you ask? What are you dying to know? (About anything)
I'd ask her what her what her favorite costume is/was as well as what her favorite Tony! Toni! Toné! album is. + Will we ever hear Mayakashi Yasaotoko live?

I'd want to know if she'll do any concerts in 2013. Dying to finally see her live on stage... but odds seem to be against me, so far =/.

I'd ask her honestly what involvement Ukigumo and Izawa had on Adult if any.

I just want to know about any ideas she has. Abandoned projects. Directions she considered taking with the music. Influences. I want to know everything behind the scenes in making the albums. All this stuff is in magazine interviews I’m sure, and I’d devour it. I want to ask a Japanese friend to help me with this but I’m too shy to ask.

I could tell you that one, myself. I'm 99% sure it's "Sons of Soul".

What happened after Adult came out? Call me a moaner if you will, but honest to god I've never known an artist change into a whole different person like that before. The reason must be common knowledge in Japan...? Did she visit some unscrupulous stage hypnotist or something? It's basically the only question I'd ask.

Oh and also why didn't she release Juwaki no Naka. My favourite tune by Shiina Ringo is a leaked demo...

She said Sons of Soul was either her most influential or favourite album, I can't remember which. Not just by Tony! Toni! Toné! but by anyone. I remember Lay Your Head On My Pillow was on one of her Kyoiku-era playlists.

This. I would also ask if she had to do Jihen all over again, what she would have done differently. And the typical fare, of course. I'd ask what her favorite solo tune she wrote was, favorite Jihen song she wrote was, and her favorite song from each of the band members.

I'd also want to know what she thinks of GGXX's I-No. Because why the hell not?

quite the obvious question: what are her plans for the future (upcoming album? tour? more kids (with me)?)

Ringo, if you had a choice between a) keeping everything you've created so far in existence but you'd be unable to make any new work, and b) destroying from private and public memory everything you've ever done but you'd be allowed to make new music....what choice would you make?
