A huge interview in spanish http://www.rafabasa.com/noticia9339.html
For people who doesn't know any word of Spanish, nothing new, 90% of interview is about why is in Unisonic and he explained his bad words of 2004-2005 years after Supared...
Interview is fine but it's like the statement of a few weeks ago, about music very few.
He also used the metaphor about country (19th time)... and journalist said... you already said that in the last one...
The main points are:
1. He is terrible happy to have management... he makes music and doesn't have to worry for nothing more.
2. He doesn't know how UNISONIC will sound at the end.
3. Terrible happy to return at stage.
4. We already knew that but Kosta and Dennis were the persons who wanted to create a band.
5. His songs are quite different of other members, are more like power ballads or midtemps. He even compare (just to do, not same song) with Silent Lucidity of QUEENSRYCHE.
6. They also discarted a lot of stuff, they won't use that stuff in the first album, perhaps in solo albums.
7. They didn't say but it's possible there will be not more dates until the album will be release.
8. He thinks Keeper 3 of HELLOWEEN was a bad idea because are a different band of other Keepers but he likes the idea of Unarmed album. |

Thanks, nice interview, from what I could translate...
Could someone please translate this part?
Quote: "Cómo imaginas la acogida del respetable a partir de ahora? Ya has podido ver algunas reacciones en estos primeros concierto, una respuesta inicial de la gente y no sé, ¿es lo que te esperabas?
Michael.- Hasta ahora todo ha sido agradable, no ha habido nada negativo que reseñar, la verdad. Me ha sorprendido para bien que sólo me he encontrado gente amigable y con mucha excitación con respecto a volver a verme encima de un escenario. Lo que sí ha cambiado en estos 17 años son cosas como que ahora está todo lleno de móviles y cámaras que filman todo lo que haces y al momento está colgado en Internet. Con esto quiero decir que no te puedes permitir a tí mismo tener un sólo día malo... Recuerdo en los días de HELLOWEEN que cuando salíamos de gira casi siempre estábamos bastante bien y personalmente no me acuerdo de un día que fuera realmente horrible cantando, pero incluso si lo tuvieras, en el pasado no hubiera importado demasiado aparte de ese día y ya está. Ahora, todo lo que haces está registrado en Internet y es que además la gente antes de ir a un concierto chequea los shows previos, incluso las fechas de calentamiento, para sacar cualquier fallo o las conclusiones que sean y luego tú vete a explicarle a la gente que eran sólo unas fechas de calentamiento, de prueba o lo que sea (risas). Ahora soy consciente de esto, pero aún así intento ignorar estas cosas, de hecho intento mantenerme al margen de ambas partes, tanto de los que buscan el mejor material de Michael Kiske, como de los que buscan cualquier fallo porque creo que no es realista en ningún caso. No sé, es que siempre he pensado que la música al final es totalmente subjetiva y por esto nunca he creído en cosas tipo "el mejor cantante" o cosas así. Otra cosa es que me guste oír cosas buenas sobre mí o mi voz, pero por otro lado sólo soy un cantante, ya sabes, y no tengo ninguna intención en ser mejor o peor que Bruce Dickinson o Robert Halford, o incluso Bono, Ronnie James Dio o el que sea. Cada uno tiene su propia identidad, su propia personalidad y sus registros particulares y ya está, y yo sólo puedo intentar ser el mejor Kiske, pero nada más.
Entonces, el comparar cantantes a este respecto te aseguro que no tiene ningún sentido para mí, aunque claro que estoy encantado de que alguien como Rob Halford siga cantando por aquí a su edad y demás, y que siga habiendo vocalistas así. O Bruce Dickinson, que está en una forma increíble y probablemente cante mejor que en los 90, ¡es realmente bueno a día de hoy! Pero al final cuando alguien dice que Kiske apesta o que tal cantante es mejor o peor que Michael Kiske, yo no puedo decir nada, porque seguramente tenga razón, que ya te digo que la música es algo totalmente subjetivo. No puedes luchar contra esto pero porque es estúpido ya que cada uno tiene su propia opinión y ya está, y por eso me resulta divertido cuando la gente se mete en peleas en Internet por este tipo de cosas, ¡pero si sólo son opiniones!
- Sí, además yo creo que el problema es que hay mucha gente con mucho tiempo libre...
Michael.- Sí, eso también (risas), pero el tema es que para mí no es discutible, no es algo que dé motivo para discutir. Es que si alguien te dice que apestas porque no le gusta lo que haces, pues muy bien, pero es que me parece tan infantil discutir por estas cosas... Ya te digo que me encanta cuando a alguien le gusta lo que haces, pero intento que no me afecten ni los comentarios negativos ni los positivos, porque no quiero esa presión de tener que ser mejor o peor para la opinión de alguien. La expectación y excitación está bien, pero, ¡hey, que sólo soy un jodido cantante! Me siento muy afortunado de ser bien considerado y de haber podido hacer esto por mucho tiempo pero hay que ser realista y creo que a veces se me ha sobrevalorado. "
Many thanks |

Until now everything was nice, nothing negative to talk about it. I was surprise how I only found with friendly people with excitement to watch me again back on the stage. What changed in that 17 years are things like now it's all full of mobiles and cameras shooting all that you do and in one moment everything is in internet. I mean you can't afford to have a bad only a bad day... In HELLOWEEN days when we went out on tour, we were fine I don't remember a day really awful singing, but even that you got it, in the past it wouldn't mind very much, just that day and done. Now all that you do it's uploaded in internet and also people before to go to the show, they check the previous shows, even in the warming up dates, to see some mistakes or conclusions, then you can't explain to them that these dates are just warming up shows (laughs)
Now I know that, but I try to ignore that things, both people he is searching the best stuff of Michael Kiske, as people who is searching mistakes because it's not realistic. Music is subjetive I never thought in things like "best singer" or things like that. Another thing is that I like to hear good things about me or my voice, but for other side I'm singer, I don't want any intention to be better or worse of Bruce Dickinson or Robert Halford, or even Bono, Dio... Each singer has his own idendity, his own personality and his particulars tones and that's all, I only can try to be the best Kiske but nothing more.
So, to compare singers in that way it hasn't any sense for me. I'm delighted that somebody like Rob Halford continues singing here with his age and vocalist like him. Or Bruce Dickinson, who is in an amazing shape perhaps he sings better than in 90ties ¡he is really good today! But at the end when somebody says that Kiske sucks or that singer is better or worse than Michael Kiske, I can't say anything, because perhaps he would be right, the music is something subjetive. You can't fight against that but it's a stupid thing, each person has his own opinion and that's all, It's funny when people join in fights by Internet for that kind of things, ¡there are just opinions!
- The problem is there are a lot of people with many free time...
Michael.- Yest, that too (laughs), but my point is, that is not a discussion, you can't arguee with that. If somebody tell you, you sucks because he doesn't like you, ok, but it's childist to arguee with that things... I love when somebody likes what you'r doing, but I try not affect me good comments or bad comments, I don't want that pression to have to be better or worse to the opinion of somebody. The expectation and excitement are fine, but ¡hey I'm just a fucking singer! I'm glad to be well considerate and to be able to do that for a long time but there is to be realistic and I think sometimes I was overestimate. |

This interview has become one of my favorites although most things in it aren't really new to me...

Nice interview. But nothing new I think And the word "Beardekutz" doesn't exist in German. I have to think about what was meant...! |

| Whoa, very interesting! I see I'm not the only one who's always curious about his past career. Even now he gets questions about the projects and the Helloween era =) Thanks again for the link, it's always nice to read what he says =) ^^ |
