Especially considering she's not a native English speaker herself. I think guys is the best translation for "minasan"?

I'm not sure about the music part, I'm unfortunately unable to rewatch the video, and I don't remember it word-by-word. I would love for CREA to make a comeback as well... I think she just doesn't feel confident about her composing skills.

But I see you live in UK, at least... last time I've been there must've been like... 2011 summer? It's one of the places I love the most, I hope I'll have a chance to move there someday <3 Anyway I think "guys" could be the best translation for "minasan" too, but so far I've only seen it referred to groups containing at least a male. Maybe she wanted to avoid "girls" seeing it referred to only younger women and couldn't find a better term, though.

As I said, she went something like "Write music or lyrics", so maybe she still has some fun writing something to play with the keyboard or the piano, but even if as I said CREA is my favourite composer, I understand her if she's not sure about her skills. Also, composing at a professional level must be so hard. I mean, even if I'm not really into music as an art to make (in other words I just listen to it), I sometimes try to think about a new melody but I always end up realizing it's actually a song I already know. Writing poems is just so much easier to me (then, of course, we must see how much Ayu and I differ on this point of view)

EDIT: mizuki seemingly confirmed me while I was writing
