Back in April, each member of NEWS appeared on Recomen on different days, and talked a bit about the new album. I was never able to get/listen to all of them, but there were a few interesting comments, so..posting about them now. Each member came up with a topic, and the next member had to answer it and then ask the next member a question. (This is why even though I don't have all of them, I can fill in some of the blanks) Then they gave a keyword (you were supposed to collect them all, send them in, and you could win a prize), and played a song from the album.

(1) 2005.04.11 - Masuda Takahisa
Question: Tell about a big event that's happened on NEWS' tour.

(2) 2005.04.12 - Kusano Hironori
When they were in Osaka, Massu wore toe socks where all the toes were different colors. Kusano said it was "gross," but he thinks of it as Masuda's "individuality." Also, Masuda cried backstage. (...Yeah, Kusano's "big events" were all embarrassing things about Massu LOL)
Question: When you hear "spring" what do you think of?
Keyword: Masuda Takahisa
Song: Cherish (Ryoji Remix)

(3) 2005.04.13 - Koyama Keiichirou
Since Koyama's a college student, when he thinks of spring, he thinks of school. He bragged a bit about becoming a third-year student.
Question: What do you like about (Kanjani8's) Yokoyama and Murakami?
Keyword: koko de NEWS desu
Song: Say Hello

(4) 2005.04.14 - Uchi Hiroki
Uchi said that Murakami was a good older brother type, who looks after the other members. Yokoyama takes him out to eat a lot. I don't really get WHY exactly, but he kept peppering his sentences with "PEZ"..they had been talking about PEZ (the group? who wrote? Say Hello) earlier.
Question: Out of NEWS, who do you NOT like?
Keyword: PEZ (*g*)
Song: kirameki no kanata e

(5) 2005.04.18 - Tegoshi Yuuya
Tegoshi said that "of course" there isn't anyone he hates in NEWS, but if he HAD to say someone..Shige when he asks for favors. Apparently he doesn't ever say "thank you."
Question: Out of NEWS, who do you love the most?
Keyword: Tegoshi desu!
Song: kibou ~Yell~

(6) 2005.04.19 - Nishikido Ryo
"I don't know if Tegoshi came up with the question himself or not, but I'm always telling him that I love him.. but really, the person I like the most, is..myself. I also like Uchi, but...yeah, I like Uchi."
Question: Send a 'yell' to the new students this spring. (That's..not a question..)
Keyword: Sakakibara ?? (couldn't understand him)
Song: Shissou Friday Night

(7) 2005.04.20 - Katou Shigeaki
He talked about himself (he mentioned college! I'm glad he's at least thinking about it).. and didn't really talk much.. (I swear I heard Koyama laughing in the background LOL)
Question: Who do you want to listen to "touch," and when?
Keyword: shinro (course/route)
Song: akaku moyuru taiyou

(8) 2005.04.21 - Yamashita Tomohisa
He said that he didn't want to say WHO should listen to "touch" but that he wanted people to listen to "yawaraka na mama de" at the beach during a sunset. Very Pi-like
Keyword: ah! yattsu subete no keyword! (ah! all 8 keywords!)
Song: Cherish
