Sakurai Sho was born to a family of scholars where everyone is raised with high expectations. His father graduated from Tokyo University and currently holds a respectable position in the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, his mother is a college professor and a company heiress, inherited the company from her father.

Born as his grandfather’s first grandson, Sho was pampered like a spoiled child. He thought of his mom as his ‘very first enemy’, always yelled to and argued with her even because of small things. And his dad often brought him to the parks on weekends but they didn’t really talk to each other, even now.

“I went to a hotpot restaurant with my dad once, just the two of us. We didn’t know what to talk about so we ended up talking about the hotpot ingredients.” (from Shiyagare 2011/03/26)

“Rolling Days” trivia so far

About “Rolling Days”

Sho: I’ve had a lot of solos where they’re clearly the types of songs I like to sing, but this time I thought, how about choosing a solo that would sound like something not chosen by me. That is, there’s something I’d like to do in the concert with it.

How do you think you’ll perform it?

Sho: I can’t really say right now (laughs), but you’ll understand if you come to the concert. What that means is, this is a song that will only be completed after everyone hears and watches it at the concert.

Ohno: I thought Sho-kun’s solo was quite unexpected. Just from the demo, I thought it’s a sound he’s never done before, and it’s exactly the type of song I’d be crazy over after completion. It’s my favorite [in the album].

Sho: I’m really glad, because even now I wouldn’t have imagine myself with this type of song (laughs), or rather, seeing myself performing it. But since sensei you said that the song turned out really good, I’m super grateful.

A/N: Rolling Days is so perfect FIGHT ME
