Fellows! I translate the interview of the Versailles band, and I can't understand some phrases. So, Kamijo says: "僕は、海外だとウインク率が上がります" What does he mean? What is the "ウインク率", which rises? So then the interviewer asks: "では、そんな皆さんが最近ハマっていることは?" Kamijo answers: "引っ越したばかりなのでカーテンを変えたいです。でもきっと、今日明日で解決すると思います(笑)". Please, explain me the reason he is laughing. And Masashi says: "僕は猫を飼っているので猫の生態観察ですね。変な動きをするんですよ、お腹出して寝てたり。ずっと動きを見ています。" I can't comprehend what are those strange movements, that his cats do? They throw out their bellies and thus fall asleep? It is unclear to me... And at last the interviewer asks for a couple of words for the readers. Yuki speaks: "毎回最高傑作は作っているんですけど、格段に楽曲のクオリティーは上がっています。1つ1つ意味の持った音で演奏出来た作品だと思うんです。魂を突っ込んだというか。" I understand the separate words, but the whole idea of the statement is dim for me. Kamijo says: "韓流アーティストが好きとは言えても、ヴィジュアル系が好きとはなかなか言いづらい場合ってあるじゃないですか。そういうのを、僕たちはぶっ壊していきたいので力を貸して下さい。" Does he mean, that he asks for fans' help to break some stereotype about visual key fanciers and korean wave fanciers?.. Please, help me to sort it out. I am from Russia, and so may be some english words are incorrect in my message, so I beg your pardon :) Thank you very much in forward! Michael.

Sorry,my english is poor OTL I hope this helps. 海外だとウインク率が上がります →The time that Kamijo casts sheep‘s eyes at fans,is more when they in foreign country About the laughing reason,i'm not sure...maybe just a laugh? Masashi means the cat likes sleeping on its back. To a cat,it's a little weird...so they like watching it. About Yuki’s speaking,it means that their works' quality is great.Every musical note in their works has its sense and they want to shake listeners' soul by the music. Last, Kamijo means,there is still some sterotype about visual music.For example,people would say that they like korean artists but wouldn't like to say they like visual music.So they wanna change the situation.
