YUKI KAJIURA -- I think it was To Nowhere, featuring Emily Bindiger on vocals.
3. What's your favorite lyric by 33?
FictionJunction YUUKA -- I don't really understand the lyrics since they're in Japanese.
4. How did you get into 49?
Stefanie Sun -- I was looking for an entry for the 16th edition of the WSC, and I discovered My Story, Your Song, a duet with Kuraki Mai. Actually, I don't like Mai's other works but Sun has some wonderful songs.
5. How many albums by 13 do you own?
Christine Guldbrandsen -- I own, as in I actually bought, two out of three. I'm missing Moments. By gum these are good albums.

9. What is your favorite song by 5?

jolin tsai -- I haven't listened to her much but she definitely does have some stinkers.
12. What is your favourite song by 10?
BONNIE PINK -- Again, another artist with numerous stellar songs. I guess my number one would bethe answer ~hitotsu ni naru toki~.
13. What is a good memory you have involving 30?
Shigeru Umebayashi -- If this counts, that would be watching some particular scenes of the film “2046”, for which he has composed a couple of tracks. I was absolutely astounded by how good the acting was. Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi wrenched my heart (and my tear ducts).
14. What is your favourite song by 38?
Christina Aguilera -- Probably
Walk Away.
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Crystal Kay -- Sure! She makes so many happy songs. My first song was Kirakuni. A real feel-good song.

Chihiro Onitsuka – She could make anyone feel sad with some of those songs. infection probably has the biggest effect.
17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23?
Nobuchika Eri – Lights. I had heard of her long before I finally heard the song. I kicked myself for waiting so long to listen to this amazing songstress.
18. What's your favourite lyric by 11?
Koda Kumi – I don't really understand the lyrics since they're in Japanese. Her English lyrics are never good.
19. Who is a favourite member of 1?
There are no members of number 1. Utada Hikaru is a solo artist.
20. Is there a song by 14 that makes you happy?
Faye Wong – Yes. Zheng Tuo (cover of Dreams by The Cranberries), from the film “Chunking Express”, makes me feel happier. Just thinking of the film makes me happier.
21. What is a good memory involving 27?
JYONGRI – Watching the music video to Possession for the first times (I played it on a loop.)
22. What is your favourite song by 16?
Brandy – She has quite a few great songs but I think my favourite is Sweet Nothings.
23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47?
Scandinavian Music Group – Mustana, maidolla, kylmänä, kuumana. It was sent as an entry for the WSC by the Finnish player. I was such a fool for not giving it any points.
24. What is your favourite album by 18?
YUI – I don't actually have any YUI albums, just some of the singles.
25. What is your favorite song by 21?
Amy Winehouse – Toughie. I love the flow of her albums but I don't much listen to individual songs. I actually adore her cover of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow, originally by The Shirelles..
