Lena Katina Performs New Single 'Red Strings' on Sukkiri!!, Shares Insights on Music and Japanese Culture

Tokyo, Japan – Lena Katina, the iconic singer formerly of t.A.T.u., recently performed her latest single, "Red Strings," on Japan's popular morning show, Sukkiri!!. The performance, characterized by Katina's signature emotive vocal delivery and a captivating stage presence, was followed by an insightful interview where she discussed her musical evolution, her journey away from t.A.T.u., and her deep appreciation for Japanese culture and innovations.

Performance: Red Strings Captivates Audiences

The studio buzzed with excitement as Lena Katina took the stage to perform "Red Strings." The song, inspired by the East Asian legend of the red thread of fate, resonated deeply with the Japanese audience. Katina's soulful performance, complemented by a visually stunning backdrop, highlighted the song's themes of destiny and connection. The audience's applause echoed the song's emotional impact, marking a successful debut of her new single in Japan.

Interview Segment: Lena Katina Opens Up

Following her performance, Katina joined the hosts of Sukkiri!! for a candid interview.

Interviewer: "Lena, your performance was absolutely beautiful. Can you tell us more about 'Red Strings' and what inspired you to write it?"

Lena Katina: "Thank you so much! 'Red Strings' is very special to me. It's inspired by the legend of the red thread of fate, which speaks about invisible connections that bind us to our destined ones. I wanted to create a song that celebrates these connections and the idea that we're all intertwined by destiny."

Interviewer: "You've come a long way since your days with t.A.T.u. How did you navigate your transition from the group to a solo artist?"

Lena Katina: "It was definitely a journey. t.A.T.u. was an incredible experience, but as I grew older, I wanted to explore my own artistic vision and voice. Distancing myself from the band allowed me to mature as an artist and as a person. It was important for me to find my own path and to create music that reflects who I am today."

Interviewer: "Speaking of finding your own path, you seem to have a genuine appreciation for Japanese culture. Can you tell us more about that?"

Lena Katina: "Absolutely! I've always been fascinated by Japan. The culture, the traditions, the cuisine—everything is so rich and unique. And I must admit, I have a bit of an obsession with Japanese home appliances. They're incredibly innovative and practical. I think I've bought every gadget you can imagine during my visits here!"

Interviewer: "That's wonderful to hear! Do you have any favorite places or experiences in Japan?"

Lena Katina: "There are so many! I love visiting Kyoto for its temples and traditional tea houses. Tokyo is amazing for its vibrant energy and incredible food. And I always make time to explore local markets and shops. The people here are so welcoming and kind; it really feels like a second home to me."

Interviewer: "It's great to see how much you appreciate Japan. Before we wrap up, what's next for you after 'Red Strings'?"

Lena Katina: "I'm excited about the future! I'm working on more music and planning a tour. I'm also exploring some collaborations with Japanese artists, which I'm really looking forward to. There are so many possibilities, and I can't wait to share more with my fans."

Interviewer: "We can't wait either! Thank you, Lena, for joining us today and for your fantastic performance. We wish you all the best with 'Red Strings' and your future projects."

Lena Katina: "Thank you so much! It's been a pleasure being here."

As Lena Katina continues to evolve as an artist, her latest single "Red Strings" symbolizes a beautiful blend of personal growth and cultural appreciation. Her heartfelt performance on Sukkiri!! and her genuine connection with Japanese culture have endeared her even more to her fans in Japan and beyond. Keep an eye out for more from this talented artist as she forges new paths in her musical journey.

Known for her powerful voice and dynamic stage presence, Katina shared insights about her new music and indulged in a lively discussion about her favorite American pop culture phenomena. The interview showcased her love for RuPaul's Drag Race, Real Housewives, and American BBQ.

Lena Katina: "Oh, I love RuPaul's Drag Race! It's so hard to pick favorites, but I'd have to say Bianca Del Rio for her wit and comedy, Raja Gemini for her ingenuity in fashion, and for serving face, Jorgeous, Plastique (Tiara) and Nymphia (Wind)."

Andy Cohen: "Great choices! How about Snatch Game characters? Any standout performances for you?"

Fiona Apple visits Jimmy Kimmel Live!

 

On Wednesday, Fiona Apple featured as a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which serves as the first major stop on her promotional tour for her new single, ‘Roaring Blue Flame’. In addition to her television debut of the song, her appearance also featured an interview.

 

Sitting down for the interview, Kimmel first enquired about the new single and the process of making it. Apple explained that the song came about at what she now views as halfway through the album’s production, although she admits that she was never working on an album, but rather just working on different songs, and then an album somewhat presented itself to her. She went on to state that ‘Roaring Blue Flame’ felt like an appropriate lead single for the record as it, in some sense, serves as a thesis statement for the whole record. Moreover, Apple referred to the track as ‘anthemic’, and explained that it is oftentimes difficult to pick which songs from a record of hers will receive single treatment, as it is very rare that the songs are ‘radio-ready’, as she puts it.

 

Throughout the interview, Apple carefully skirted around questions that required her to divulge new information about her forthcoming record, however she did confirm that a record is on the horizon. She also talked a little about signing with Archive Records, and compared the experience of releasing independently versus with a label. Apple teased that with the improved budget that comes with signing to a label, the production value of her music, visuals, tours, and merch will all proportionately improve in due course. Her excitement for this new era of her career was palpable.

 

Kimmel talked to the audience prior to Apple’s performance, explaining how this is her first televised performance in over a decade, and it is the world premiere of ‘Roaring Blue Flame’ live. After rounds of thunderous applause, Fiona Apple took to the stage to close the show.

 

The performance opened with Apple stood alone, centre-stage, with a bright spotlight illuminating her. As the instrumentation begins to swell in the first verse, the spotlight grows harsher and begins to flicker, until Apple is essentially lit by strobes. The percussion of the chorus sees more light illuminate the stage, and her band is now visible, ordered out in rows on small riser platforms behind her. For the most part, the focal point of the performance was Apple’s vocals and the band, although the lighting added a sense of tension to the performance and was very effective considering the minimal stage setup. Apple’s vocals were as undeniably hers as ever, and her crisp voice glided through the notes like the seasoned pro that, by now, she is.

 

Following the performance, Apple was met with a standing ovation, and the audience both in the studio and at home were reminded that ‘Roaring Blue Flame’ is available to stream or download now.
