Tegomass has recently released its 1st album! One of the tracks included in the album ‘テゴマスのうた♪ / Tegomass no Uta♪’ is called ‘Miso Soup’ and is an all-English song! That was enough to surprise the multilingual website musicJAPANplus! The duo talked about the things they had to overcome when singing an all-English song for their debut in Sweden!
“I had sung songs by foreign artists when I had gone to karaoke, so I didn’t think there would be any problems. I actually thought that English lyrics would be cool. But when a linguist checked our pronunciations I found it was difficult to get used to properly pronouncing the ‘L’ and ‘R’s, and also the ‘th’ and ‘ed’ at the end of words. But I thought it would be a shame if people who listened to the song misunderstood the meaning of it just because of our bad pronunciation. The recording was very hard, but once finished I felt a great sense of accomplishment!”
