Interview

|---|
| The girls said in an interview:
Chelsea: I think ‘Halation Summer’ was a really cute song. But our real nature isn’t comical and cute. Mika: It's like ‘Halation Summer’ was a song for me, and the coupling song ‘Summer Night Town (English Version)’ was a song for the sexy Chelsea, Danielle, and April. (lol) So maybe ‘Dance & Chance’ will be a blend of everybody? |
