----------------------------
hello to you all
ten million people
of the greater tokyo area.

my name is hosokawa toshiyuki
i am in charge of
pizzicato five's
publicity department.

you are now
listening to
pizzicato five's latest album
playboy playgirl
which is still
under production.

this is a street like any other
in tokyo.
the building you see
four floors plus
two underground floors
is pizzicato five's
headquarters.

to the offices on
the third floor
come invitations
from all over
the world
for guest appearances
at parties
and concerts.

just today
offers have
come from
toronto
cologne
and singapore.

on the first floor underground
t-shirts and
posters for
the next p5 tour
are being
designed.

on the second floor
auditions for
readymade records
are being held since morning.
since early morning
many young girls are
queueing up
waiting for
their turn.

on the fourth floor
the always charming
nomiya-maki san
is having her
make-up
session
as she gives
an interview
on the phone.

on the second floor
underground
where the studio is
the always funny
konishi yasuharu-san
is sitting
at the piano
trying hard
to compose
a new song.

but
the recording seems
to be going through
a difficult stage.

it seems like
konishi cannot
come up with
a new song.

the album has already a title and
the date of release
has already been publicised
however...

you are now
listening to
the new
pizzicato five
album
still under
production
playboy playgirl
