僕ね、あの～、自分のイビキでね、起きますね、良く。後ね、自分の歯ぎしりも聞いたことありますね。不思議ですよね～。自然に力がこもってるんでしょうかね。

でもね～、イビキよりも寝言がねぇ、うちの嵐のメンバー多い人がいるんですよ。すごい人が。それはですね、櫻井翔君。おめでとう。櫻井翔君、すごいんですよ。去年の夏のツアーですかねぇ、１回ね、ツアー中地方回ってる時に、ホテル一緒になってですね、あの～、２人部屋でね。寝てたんですよ。

そんで僕がですね、朝勝手に６時頃目が覚めたんですね。そしたらまだね、起きる時間じゃなかったんでね、ああじゃあもっかい寝ようと思って寝ようとしたら、隣から櫻井翔が寝ながらなんて言ったと思いますか？「（エコー）あ、相葉を寝かせて・・相葉を寝かせてよ」うちのメンバー相葉雅紀ってのがいるんですけど、なんで相葉ちゃんを寝かせなきゃいけないんだって言うね、意味がわからない。

まあね、うちの櫻井翔そういう事があったんでね、今度のコンサートツアーとかではですね、テープレコーダーを持って行こうかな～と思います。誰かが寝言を言ってる時に録音できたらね、コンサートのＭＣ中にね流せたらね、これまた盛りあがるんじゃないかなってことでね、え～、企んでる大野智でございます。以上！大野智でした。

Ohno: You know, I actually, well, wake up from my own snoring. And then, I also hear my own teeth-grinding. It's mysterious, right~? Do I naturally put in that much strength?

But actually, in Arashi there are more members that have sleep talk problems than snoring. The person who's great at that is, well for that, is Sakurai Sho-kun. Congratulations, Sakurai Sho-kun! He's pretty amazing. Last summer's tour, I think, while we were visiting many places for the tour, there's this one time where we were together in the hotel. Well~ it was a room for the two of us.

We went to sleep, and actually I purposely woke up at 6 in the morning. I went, "Ah, it's still not time to wake up yet. Aah, I'll snooze some more." Just when I thought this, I heard Sakurai Sho who was right next to me, saying something like "Ah, please make Aiba sleep...make him sleep." He's talking about our fellow member Aiba Masaki, but why was he saying make Aiba-chan sleep? I didn't get it.

Ah well, that's an incident with our Sakurai Sho~ So for the concert tour, I thought maybe I should bring a tape recorder along~ If anyone's sleep-talking, I can record it, and then play it during the concert's MC~ I got too excited about the topic again. Ohno Satoshi in planning mode here. That's all from me, Ohno Satoshi!
