Actually, I've been interested in the previous special myself. I'm assuming you're talking about the one that aired in 2000, ne? If so, you can find it here:

Would you be interested in collaborating with Deli and I, since we did the 2004 one?
Yeah, I was thinking that I could try writing a subtitle-worthy translation; probably something that is in more conversational English so that it is easy for people follow. I tried to do one some years ago, but I think my Japanese has improved since then. In any case, I'll take a look at the link you posted. I haven't seen this special in several years, so I can't remember much of the content. I do remember that it has a great deal to do with her first album and her evolution as her own producer. Since it was shot before she became such a phenomenon (although she was already considered a living "charisma" [charismatic figure]), it has some really candid things in it, especially her reaction to being misunderstood and parodied in the media at that time.
