(Malaysia) MetroVision, 9.30pm, 18th Dec '98 It's has some Aqua videos, bits from the Aqua Diary, exclusive interviews with the group members and the production team, and yes, even the Good Morning Sunshine live video! Interesting bytes include : Good Morning Sunshine live vdo - Lene dressed up as a sexy, Arabian lady, Rene in something metallic (is that an apron?!), Soren looking like cool blue Elvis, and Claus - what is that ?! Looks like Spiderman with horns everywhere (or is that Claus' claws? : ) It's a HOT vdo, believe me. Fire, sparkles, lights and action! The interviews with the group members reveal not many new facts. They were talking about their history, music concepts, how they met, songwriting, describing each other, the tours, how they feel etc. Interview with Lene : She wore a black tee with the blazing words "you're sick and you're beautiful". Her mom used to sing to her at night to get her to sleep, but Lene told her to shut up, bcoz it didn't sound nice. That hurt her mom.Interview with Lene : Bcoz her dad was involved in the army, Lene has tried using the bazooka once when she was young, but didn't shoot too well with it ("I was so tiny!!"). Anyway, she ended up as the 2nd best in her grade. Interview with Lene : When Rene first introduced Lene to the group (it was more like an audition), she was NERVOUS, eventhough everyone was friendly and it was cosy at that time. Interview with Rene : He did talk about his relationship with Lene. hmm :) There was something else about renting a 7000 DKr mike b4 he was allowed to perform, and he did anyway, eventhough he didn't have 7000 Dkr with him. Interview with Claus and Soren : Nothing much. They talked about how they met (the gas station story), and the rest, as you can say, is history :) They are all very close to each other. Once, they spent some time in a cottage to rest up. After coming back from the studio, they didn't just "watch tv like they did in Copenhagen". Instead, they just talked for hours until late into the night. Nice :) There was one very FUNNY radio interview in Japan. The deejay (or the translator?) was so ecstatic and crazy when he interviewed with Aqua, that he keep on clapping, cheering and laughing. Soren said that although it was a 25-minute interview, only 4 questions were asked. The rest are all laughs :) Interview with the production team : It's mostly on why, how and when the Aqua Diary was made, plus some odd tidbits. Aqua was a little skeptical at first, and were a little shy (they had a camera following them during those 18 months!). But soon after, they got used to it, loosed up and became more open. There's some info on the cover of the Aqua Diary, and how the idea came up. They had 400 hours of material, and they had to pick the best, cut it up, and compiled it into 2 hours. One guy showed a box of Aqua stuff ("collectibles"), which he used in the Diary (featured in the Aqua Diary vdo). Postcards, pix, and other memorable trinkets fill that Colotech box. It took 2 weeks to plan out the Diary, its contents and its layout, from the day the briefing took place. Copyright by Serena Lee. All rights reserved.
