It's so cool that her actual intellect is reflected in her songwriting. A lot of her songs have a pop structure but the lyrics are intricate and political. She deserves even more acclaim and success.
Her time at Cambridge and achievement did not go to waste at all, it all went into her music and her brilliant lyrical output 🥺 so so proud of you Rina and so glad to be an alumna of yours 🥺
What a great interview. She is so genuine and super smart. Hold the girl made me cry thinking of her as well as her mom, who was surviving in the UK with a little girl
I just discovered Rina a few weeks ago when I was watching the Graham Norton Show here in the U.S. on BBC America. She performed “Hold The Girl” and I was mesmerized by the song and especially her performance. I literally became a fan instantly and have been discovering her music and learning about her as an artist since then. This interview was soooo good and I’ve fallen even deeper in love with Rina after seeing this interview and learning so much about her through this interview. By the way, great content and I really thought the interviewer did a great job presenting the questions with a balance of curiosity, respect and sincere interest in Rina and her story. 👏 👏
OMFG I AM SO IN LOVE! Started listening to Rina one week ago and today started to watch interviews. The part she explains about This Hell Is Better With You hit me right in the heart, she's so precious!
What an amazing interview!! I’m seeing so much of myself in her and I didn’t even know! I’m a 29 year old, queer man, psychologist, wanting to have a career in music but with no connections. I see you Rina and you inspire me to continue this journey
Great interview!! And great questions! Made me teary hearing Rina speak about all this given I'm an immigrant in London and I also built my career to be a writer!
Yo after watching John Wick 4, she should definitely be cast as Psylocke in the new X-men movies. Rina is an amazing artist and actress. British and Japanese just like Psylocke, come on Marvel! Who agrees?🙂💚
Thank goodness we have another talented Asian singer. There’s so many talented and vocally well and way better than a lot of American singers. So glad time has change and hopefully Asians are more accepted in the music industry. BTS made it but this queen needs to dominate!
I love the questions in this interview a lot and also guys, here is more proof that it's never too late to start your dreams, Rina was already an adult when she became more professionally into music.
Come on, asking another question about XS when she’s talked about it so much? She has so many other songs on equally interesting political and personal topics that we still haven’t fully explored! Otherwise loved this interview.
All these comments saying what a good interviewer this guy is and here I am thinking that he just has a list of questions and its more a Q&A rather than an interview cause he isnt following up any of his questions and so it feels very stop start
I know British acts sometimes sing with something of an American accent, but what’s going on in This Hell where it sounds like some LA type is singing?

Yes ... I believe she does
It’s a shame the fans don’t get yo decide who’s famous or their level of fame
Shout out to the interviewer who did an amazing job with actually engaging questions
100% agree. Great listener too.
Yes! Mr. Pongo did his research and asked relevant questions. I wish other interviews with talented, smart women were this interesting.
@@MegaKumquatyes! He even knew the first singles she released!
Was going to write that.
Finaly!
The interviewer is asking the RIGHT questions! Such an insightful interview.
Her time at Cambridge and achievement did not go to waste at all, it all went into her music and her brilliant lyrical output 🥺 so so proud of you Rina and so glad to be an alumna of yours 🥺
Good to see her rich privilege worked out great for her!
@@jimjam5012 did you miss the part where she had to work multiple jobs to even get started on her career
Absolutely loved this interview, Rina is so original and authentic, she is really the new main pop girl but in her own way.
you will play in a stadium and i will be there!! so proud of your growth, rina 💜
2:55
She worked so hard.
Strong woman.
What a good interview!!!! This gentleman did a great job asking fascinating background questions and connecting with her on a musical level
Intelligent, social, political, philosophical, personal, funny and genuine!
Rina, you are super talented. You will play sold out stadiums one day.
What a great interview. She is so genuine and super smart. Hold the girl made me cry thinking of her as well as her mom, who was surviving in the UK with a little girl

I first saw her on the Graham Norton Show.I love the way she transitioned from Japanese to fluid English.impressive ❤

OMFG I AM SO IN LOVE! Started listening to Rina one week ago and today started to watch interviews. The part she explains about This Hell Is Better With You hit me right in the heart, she's so precious!
I met Rina 4 days ago and I cannot stop thinking about it. She is the best performer I've ever seen
She is such an inspiration. Can't wait for the new album and hopefully to one day see her on stage myself
She’s beautiful
One of the best interviews of Rina! Great!
Even in a small venue she rocked the small stage. Everything she did was iconic especially her entrance.
What an amazing interview!! I’m seeing so much of myself in her and I didn’t even know! I’m a 29 year old, queer man, psychologist, wanting to have a career in music but with no connections. I see you Rina and you inspire me to continue this journey
She deserves a stadium tour
This is a great interviewer, he did an awesome job. I loved learning all this about her
6:50 she called him out 💀 love her
Noooo I just caught that too 😭
But then he said her name correctly later! Wonder if he was embarrassed lol!

She is our intergalactic ambassador when the federation ships show up... Have no doubt
Rina💫💓日本人のDNAを感じる素敵な魂。自分らしく生きることを世界中に🌏🪐
She’s a Utada fan , First love such a great album
Great interview!! And great questions! Made me teary hearing Rina speak about all this given I'm an immigrant in London and I also built my career to be a writer!

The interviewer needs a raise!

Yo after watching John Wick 4, she should definitely be cast as Psylocke in the new X-men movies. Rina is an amazing artist and actress.

I love the questions in this interview a lot and also guys, here is more proof that it's never too late to start your dreams, Rina was already an adult when she became more professionally into music.
awesome interview with great questions!
Good answer Rina - it’s not about statistics but having fun and throwing in a bit of metal into a song. Great answer
Great interview with a great artist and great questions!
I really really loved this interview
The interviewer did a great job. He asked great questions.
great interview
He asked all the questions I had on my mind so thank youuuu !
this was a great interview
Rina covers Utada Hikaru when???
Goddess, Queen and everything in between.
so thats why her songs have a psychology thing to it
Im Korean. Im your big fan ㅠ
She mentioned Utada Ikaru, she is good too.
Es de otro mundo. La amo
Really love her way of thinking
I absolut loved this interview✨✨
But I have to say, the background music was a little destracting , maybe too loud?
Saw her in John Wick 3 , so gorgeous
Rina x Utada PLEAASEEE
日本語で聞きたい！
Utada Hikaru! Her inspirations helped make her great.
💙
Did no one else pick up on the interviewer fucking up her last name at 6:35, and then her response to it was so 💀
Automatic GOAT!
Come on, asking another question about XS when she’s talked about it so much? She has so many other songs on equally interesting political and personal topics that we still haven’t fully explored! Otherwise loved this interview.
Queen go for Eurovision 2023 🇬🇧
Wow I really like her a lot.
Finally she explained the album cover 😂
💫🙌🏼💛💫💛🙌🏼
Rina's Mercury rejection story is essentially how foreigners living in Japan for more than 10 yrs feel on a regular basis.

All these comments saying what a good interviewer this guy is and here I am thinking that he just has a list of questions and its more a Q&A rather than an interview cause he isnt following up any of his questions and so it feels very stop start
Interviewer has no idea about the title of the first song on the EP
Her mum looks like Yoko Ono.
Does any one know from where I can get her blouse for my gal?
Dammnnn, Mtv actually focus on music and artists?!? 🤯😂
wait are they not actually in the same room
mother
The rack tho
I know British acts sometimes sing with something of an American accent, but what’s going on in This Hell where it sounds like some LA type is singing?
You mean the song that references Britney Spears, Whitney Houston and Paris Hilton?
