ロックのことを何も聞かないでほしい。
大学にいってたとき、音楽業界のクラスでビデオを見て、突然始まったのがブラックサバスのパラノイドだった。荒い映像に、鉛のように重く確かなサウンドで、ロックを辞書でひくとまさにのっていそうな曲だった。ぼーっとして、言葉も出なくて、未知との遭遇にドキドキして教室を出た。数日後に今は亡きユニオンスクエアのヴァージンでアルバムを買った。私にとって、ロックといえば、これから先はわからないけど、今のところこのアルバムでしかない。だから、ロックのことは何も聞かないでほしい。

I am not a good person to ask about ROCK at all. I did not go through that culture when I was a teenager. Not that I am not interested, actually it's opposite. Unfortunately even though I would love to know about it all the time, I am just clueless where to start at this point.
4 - 5 years ago, when was in college, I took music industry class. We watched the documentary film of rock music business. I was just thinking something else, hoping three hour class will be over. Then, Black Sabbath's Paranoid video was played all a sudden. I don't remember rest of the video at all, it's slipped out from my memory like most of the college reminiscences. When it started, I was shocked and speechless. It was something that I've never known it exists, which brought me the completely new encounter as alien, and it hit me so hard. Couple of days later, I bought the album at Virgin Record in Union Square. It was a heavy rotation for many months. That's the first and last relationship with Rock music with me. Don't ask me about the Rock music.
