It was actually the BPI Awards that we went to collect an award and Geldof was at a few tables away and came over and said, how about doing this this thing.

BPIアワードに賞をもらいに行ったとき、ゲルドフがいくつか離れたテーブルにいて、こう言ったんだ。

未来形

And he said, we're going to have this and this and this and this and we said, oh yeah, I'm sure, you know, thinking that it was an almost impossible thing to get together, but we said, yeah, we'd be interested.

彼は、これとこれとこれをやるんだ、と言ったので、私たちは、ああ、そうだね、と答えた。

過去形

Then a bit later on he rang up and said, look, Brian, I have to have a commitment, you know.

その後、彼は電話をかけてきて、ブライアン、約束があるんだ、と言った。

So we sort of talked about it a bit more and it seemed like we were all very keen to do it, you know.

それでもう少し話し合ったんだけど、みんなとてもやりたがっていたよ。

Is not because you support the cause and want to do your bit, or because it's such a unique rock event that you can't afford to miss out in a way?

それは、あなたがこの活動に賛同し、少しでも役に立ちたいからではないのか、それとも、ある意味見逃すことができないようなユニークなロックイベントだからではないのか？

To answer that honestly, it's a bit of both actually.

正直に答えると、実際はその両方なんだ。

Because I think um it is a very good cause and uh initially I think we we would have liked to have taken part in Band Aid um single, but I I think we were in separate parts of the globe.

バンドエイドはとてもいい活動だと思うし、当初はバンドエイドのシングルに参加したかったと思う。

And uh so the second um bash at it was was this thing and also the fact that some of the biggest and best known groups around the world taking part, why not us?

そして......2つ目の......この......バッシュは......世界的に有名で大きなグループも参加している......。

So I think it makes me personally proud to sort of be part of it actually.

だから、その一部になれたことを個人的に誇りに思う。

Is it difficult to choose numbers for a 20 minute set?

20分のセットで数字を選ぶのは難しいですか？

Do you find that you have to stick to your best known numbers?

最もよく知られている数字にこだわらなければならないとお考えですか？

Yes, we do, we don't know quite quite what to do, you know, whether to play the hits or or to try and do something new.

ヒット曲を演奏するのか、それとも何か新しいことに挑戦するのか。

But I think in 20 minutes really, we've got to play things that people know and we'll recognize, you know, in in Turkey or wherever they're watching from maybe.

でも、20分という短い時間の中で、トルコやどこからでも見ている人たちが知っているようなプレーをしなければいけないと思う。

So we're still squabbling over that fact, that's what he's trying to say, yeah.

だから、その事実をめぐってまだ言い争っている、それが彼の言いたいことなんだ。

You're known for the spectacle of your live performances, for the backdrops and the expansive lighting rigs, is it going to be difficult to cope with the the sort of sparsity of Wembley?

あなたはライブ・パフォーマンスのスペクタクルで知られ、背景や大掛かりな照明設備で知られていますが、ウェンブリーのようなスペクタクルに対応するのは難しそうですか？

Uh, well, it all comes down to if you can play or not really, which is nice really.

まあ、結局はプレーができるかできないかだ。

In a way, because I think probably there's probably an element of people who think that groups like us can't do it without the extravagant backdrop, but we'll see, you know.

ある意味、僕らのようなグループは豪華な背景がないとやっていけないと思っている人たちもいるだろうから。

After 13 years, do you still get excited about this sort of live performance?

13年経った今でも、このようなライブパフォーマンスに興奮しますか？

私たちはまだ遊びたいし、ふざけたいんだ。

What about the number that you two are going to be performing towards the end, towards the finale?

終盤、フィナーレに向けてお二人が披露するナンバーについてはどうですか？

Well, I actually it seems that um it it looks as if we actually wrote it for this occasion, but we didn't actually it was it was done a long time before that.

まあ、実際には......まるでこの日のために書いたかのように見えるけど、実際にはそのずっと前にできていたんだ。

It seems to fit the bill actually, so I think um they opted out and said, well, why don't the two of us?

実際、その条件にぴったりだと思う。

Because I mean, during a Queen show, it's just the two of us that actually play and Roger and John actually go and have a drink or something.

だって、クイーンのショーでは、実際に演奏するのは僕ら2人だけで、ロジャーとジョンは飲みに行ったりするんだ。

But uh so so we weren't really going to do that one, but it seems to be um very sort of a part of the show, it's very meaningful and um so we're going to do it.

でも......だから......本当はやらないつもりだったんだけど......ショーの一部みたいだし、とても意味のあることだから、やることにしたんだ。

それについて少し教えてください。

Oh, um it came about when we'd almost finished recording the album The Works actually.

アルバム『ザ・ワークス』のレコーディングがほぼ終わった頃だったね。

And we'd been throwing stuff off because there wasn't room for it and in the end we threw off so much that um we said there's a little hole here, it just needs something and actually Mack who was producing us um said, why don't you do something really simple, you know, just just write a song.

結局、あまりにたくさんのものを捨ててしまったから、ここに小さな穴がある、何か必要だと言って、プロデュースしてくれていたマックが、本当にシンプルなことをやったらどうかと言ってくれたんだ。

And Freddy and I were there late one night and we we just came up with this thing, it was very quick and we just had this particular thing in mind, you know, the the whole business of Africa was in our minds.

フレディと私はある夜遅くまでそこにいて、私たちはただこのことを思いついたんだ。

そして......そういう結果になった。

Saturday is meant to be all for a good cause and there aren't meant to be any egos involved, but are so many.

土曜日はすべて大義のために行われるもので、エゴは関係ない。

But are so many superstars going to find it difficult in each other's sort of personal spaces?

しかし、これほど多くのスーパースターが、互いのパーソナルスペースで困難を感じることになるのだろうか？

I think it's going to be chaotic, yes, yes.

Has to be, I mean, we're not we're not all wonderfully um well behaved kids are we, I mean it's just but that that's that's going to sort of actually be the nice part of it actually.

そうでなければならない、つまり、僕たちはみんな素晴らしく......お行儀のいい子供たちというわけではないんだ。

There's be lots of friction and and um we're all going to try and outdo each other, I guess and uh we're just going to go out and play.

たくさんの摩擦があるだろうし、みんなお互いを出し抜こうとしているんだと思う。

That's right, you want to give something special really because that's what it's about.

その通り、何か特別なものを贈りたい。

Not the regular thing, so everybody's going to be out there giving their best and that's what it's about.

レギュラーではないので、全員がベストを尽くす。

Make some money for those people, that's as Geldof says, that's what it comes down to, you know, we can all have a great time and I think we will, but it comes down to the fact that it's going to make tons of money and for a change the money's going to go to the right place.

ゲルドフが言っているように、その人たちのためにお金を稼ごうということなんだ。
