mu-mo.net has an interview with SATOMI' promoting "Diamondlily"!

http://sp.mu-mo.net/aoyamarecord/int.../29satomi.html

Also there is footage of her live concert back in November!! :w00t: As well as a shout out to the fans : If anybody knows how to rip streaming video from WMP please PM me^^

EDIT - According to the interview, Satomi says that she named the album "Diamondlily" because a diamondlily is a flower with diamonds in the petals, which make it shine. So, she wanted her first album to be as beautiful and shiny as that flower. She also goes on to say that there are love songs even though she has yet to find true love, however she does sing about true things.
"Crystal Drops" is her favorite song because of the way she was feeling when they recorded it and the strong lyrics. The lyrics are dedicated to a friend of hers who died She also talks about "Dear Mama" being a thank you to her mother because she gave birth to her and happiness. Satomi goes on to say that "Umbrella" expresses her negative feelings while "No.1" gives positive feelings and inspiration to others. But she believes negative feelings can be turned into positive feelings.
The interviewer ask what music SATOMI' delivers and she replies that it is not Japanese R&B nor American R&B/Hip-Hop but it is the core phases R&B has passed threw(?) Lastly she says for 2007 she wants to do more live performances because back in November when she did her first live she was insecure but now finds the pleasures in performing live^^
THE END

BTW, the song playing in the background of the November Live clip is "No.1" :w00t:
