Changmin and Yunho talking about new tracks from TONE album (fragments of TV Guide September issue interview, posting only Homin's quotes on the songs)

Introduction ~magenta~
"I thought it sounds like a nursery rhyme. We tried this genre for the first time, and I was worried the song might turn into a real nursery rhyme when things go wrong (laugh). I thought this song could accentuate the charm of other songs, so sang it with a pure and simple mind." (Changmin)
"Introduction is the representative track of the whole album. That's why I think this song represents Changmin and me making frantic efforts to make this album." (Yunho)

Duet
"The lyrics convey a message <<I want to protect the person I love at any cost>>. I think it's a manly way of expressing love." (Changmin)
"The title <<Duet>> relates to us in a way. This song is a mixture of conventional style and a new charm of Tohoshinki. The lyrics are... I wonder if Changmin has such an experience, but I have (laugh). I did the recording, thinking back of my past." (Yunho)

幸せ色の花 (Shiawase Iro no Hana, Happiness-colored Flower)
"When we heard the demo tape, we thought it would become a ballad representing more evolved Tohoshinki and so we poured our honest feelings into it. Especially Yunho worked on it with enthusiasm. After we completed the recording, he said <<I want to record this song again from the beginning>> and we did the recording again and then again. This is the most repeated song in the album and we put the largest effort into it." (Changmin)
"The director said okay. But I asked myself <<Where is the limit of Tohoshinki? How far can we go?>> and thought <<We should put far more efforts! We can go further!>> This song is a long ballad of 6 minutes and 40 seconds. Tohoshinki has conveyed many magnificent ballads such as Bolero, but this time we have to express a song of 6 minutes and 40 seconds in this genre only with two voices. That's why we wanted to push us to the limit." (Yunho)
("Which is your favorite song?") "My favorite song is 幸せ色の花 we recorded again and again. It's a long song, and ballads are the genre where Tohoshinki has sung a lot of songs. Both of us worked on it really hard, so please check it out." (Yunho)

Easy Mind
"It's a happy song. The lyrics say <<Forget stress and enjoy yourself!>>. I enjoyed singing this song, and I'm sure we can enjoy it together with the audience." (Changmin)
"(...) At the end of Easy Mind, you will hear strange and bad whistle (laugh). It’s me. I fell in Changmin's trap (laugh). He told the director <<Yunho is a good whistler>>, but I'm bad at it... Fortunately, my whistle was considered to be artistic and now it is a funny story." (Yunho)

Weep
"We put our gratitude into the song. It's just my personal opinion, but it's a suitable song for closing our solo concert. I hope people memorize the song and sing along with us at the concert." (Yunho)
"(...) About Weep, we put our gratitude into the last part <<La La La ~>>." (Yunho)
