Kiske’s English has always sounded better than the one of many native speakers
Right? His English is flawless, I'd say.
I had a German lecturer at the university... teaching English. He was a linguist and native speakers, professors at the uni, would often need a dictionary to look up the word the German guy used. And that guy was also a metal fan - growing up in Germany in the 1980s. He said that when he first heard Helloween he thought they were an American band, a notion cemented by hearing Kiske talking the first time. So he was rather shocked when he learned Helloween were from Hamburg and Kiske was German :)
@@kitko33 Wow … this is amazing !
What about the English speakers from the Midwest?
Michael Weikath remembers "How Many Tears" 🙏🙏🙏🙏
He already did it, check it out on Instagram
@@carloschong2795 Thanks! I don't have Instagram. I hope they'll put it on RUclips 😅🙌
@@carloschong2795 which account uploaded it?
Kiske the great is now fully open his heart, honest to himself (he had been honest to him self all the time though) without making any wall against people. I agree with him, it was necessary.
He always wore his heart on his sleeve - one of the reasons I supported him throught his solo career. Bought albums (including Supared), bought Kiske twice (iTunes and CD), contributed to his crowdsourcing efforts. He deserved it.
Kiske buddy, you’re the most precious human being for me for decades. Your voice is the soundtrack of my life. God bless you!...

Why am I crying goddamit... I'm so happy to see him and Kai back in the band I just can't hold my tears
Same here..
@@samuelhernandez1081 same here friends
I felt the same way when I saw them this past may at the Dallas TX show.
Pink bubbles go ape, for me is one of the best Helloween albums, such great vocal melodies and guitar solos! unfortunetly underrated album.. up the pumpkins!! 🎃
Kids of the century
Mankind
The Chance
Someone’s Crying
Goin Home
Number One
Those are massive songs maybe for hardcore fans Heavy Metal Hamster killed the album haha
Really? o_O
I didn't like PBGA or Chameleon..as Helloween albums(if that makes sense). However, they are great albums and I love them just the same!
Mankind is one of their greatest songs to date!!
I hated it big time when I first listened to it back in 1996. I was 18 years old at that time and the only two songs that I did like was Kids Of The Century and The Chance. I hated it at the time because I wanted another Keeper Of The Seven Keys album. I gave the album another chance around 2006 ten years later , and I loved the majority of it. Songs like Mankind, Someone's Crying, Back On The Streets, Number One, Kids Of The Century, The Chance, and Goin Home are some of my favorite songs on Pink Bubbles Go Ape album. I also really hated Roland Grapow back then, because at that time I did not think he was a worthy replacement for Kai Hansen at all. It did not take me long to realize that Roland was indeed a good replacement for Kai Hansen. He has written some amazing songs for Helloween. Some great songs like Mankind, The Chance, Someone's Crying, The Time Of The Oath, The Dark Ride, and Still We Go . I also love his band Masterplan alot. Masterplan's self titled debut album is a MASTERPIECE in my opinion.
Kiske Perfect vocal ....its Helloween...
Michael Kiske has always been a great songwriter!! I love all his songs on Keeper Of The Seven Keys Part 1 and Part 2, Pink Bubbles Go Ape, and Chameleon alot. Even B side songs like Savage is a great song. Now that he is back with Helloween, I really hope that he is involved in the songwriting process because he has proven that he can write great songs. Helloween has many great songwriters now and I am really looking forward to the new album big time!!!! I am still so happy that both Michael Kiske and Kai Hansen are back in Helloween!!!!
Greetings from the USSR (Minsk, Belarus), from such a "distant" 1985, when they first heard the incomparable "Helloween" with his cool "heavy metal". The 1987 album raised the whole union to the ears !!! on the street when we gathered in companies and at home, of course. Thank you guys for everything !! 👍 🤗 🇩🇪 USSR
Michael Kiske is my favorite singer Helloween is my favorite band
Bestial helloween, lo llevo escuchando desde que tenía 10 años, a día de hoy tengo 42 y no me canso...ojalá hicieran un concierto en Sevilla 🎸🤙
Thank you for not being at war with your past anymore. We just saw you in Chicago and I have never seen a better performance. You guys have something magical. Please keep going \m/
One of their best songs! Why don't they play it in all the concerts?
Because they give preference to Keeper songs.
They played this song on Pumpkins United tour.
@@kzagarin Not in all concerts
PBGA is and will always be my favourite Helloween album. This album had lyrics with a conscience. PERFECTION 💖
Love you Kiske!!! 😍😍😍
Michael Kiske great singer,,all the Best from Ireland🎸🎸🎸
I'm glad Michael is in good terms with his past and the rest of the band now! I think their success with the Keeper albums came with bad timing. Shortly after Part 2, Kai Hansen left, they got into a nasty legal fight with Noise Records and then Grunge music exploded, which greatly reduced interest in metal music. When all that stuff happens at the same time, even little musical/personality differences between members can turn ugly real quick. I remember I went to one of Avantasia's 2010 shows, when Michael just went out of retirement, the joy and chemistry they projected to the audience was unbelievable (specially between Kiske and Hansen), you could clearly see (and then the same with Unisonic) he was truly enjoying heavy music and being on a stage again.
Now about his songs: he should get the band to play You Always Walk Alone and We Got The Right live!!!
Still want to listen Deris singing this song... I don't know why, but I think it would fit very well in his voice!
It does sounds like something that could fit into Pink cream 69
It would sound horrible, they would have to change the key of ths song and that sucks
@@ankihansen2489 I can definitely imagine Deris singing this in the same key. It’s not much high or impossible
@@ankihansen2489 nah he could sing it in the original key
Kiske still sings it great! Haha live version from the PumpkinS United live audio!
From the glory days,with Ingo behind the drums.
Michael... you are my hero!🤘🎃🇨🇦
My all time fav vocalist and the most handsome guy in the history of metal ^.^ Each his face expression is priceless :)
I love Helloween in kiske era and Andi era. I like the chameleon album and the master of ring make me more love Helloween
One of the best songs of helloween
Yeah, love it!
A memory for about 30 years ago...❤️
Michael Kiske the best!!
Thank you Michael ❤🙏 We love U
Grande michi!!!!!
This is an awesome song. I loved it when it came out. And I still do.
(The accoustic version is great as well.)
I had all their albums 😄
Wow...I have always loved that song. Didn't know Michael wrote it.
Love kiske and that he forgave and decide to come back and work together with the whole...they are better together and have healed into a happy pumpkin family...united 🎃🤘🔥❤👏
I loved this video, I hope you do more like these.
This was one of the standouts of this album. such an underrated song.
So damn underrated
最高❗beautiful！
Great Michael Kiske 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Желаю долгих лет творчества, и чтобы радовали нас своей музыкой ещё долго-долго!!!
Yeah 🤟🏽🖤
One the best songs of the wonderful álbum Pink Bubbles go Ape 🖤
Greetings from México City
Get back fast to Brazil! because I miss you ❤️
I love kids of the century....very underrated track
is one of my favorite songs from the album Pink Bubbles go ape! 🤟🎃🤟
Wow..Michael Kiske's English is very good. It sounds very good. Amazing. I had "that" album. It was a great thing to have it in 1991 when I was Sr High School. Keep healthy always. Greeting from Indonesia.
A lot of people say PBGA sucks and I wonder how they can say that when this song, along with Back on the Streets, Heavy Metal Hamsters and quite a few others are in there, I honestly like it a bit more than the Keeper Duology thinking about it
@Fangalatic I can understand why everyone can’t get into Chameleon, but PBGA? Nah this is a classic and should be looked back much better then the reputation it gets.
PBGA has some good songs but it was a shock hearing it after Keeper.
PLEASE MORE VIDEOS like these .. glimpses into the songwriting processes, events external to “the band” that may or may not have influenced their craft, insights into lyrics etc.. these things are VERY Interesting to the Helloween fan !! THANKS FOR ALL THE YEARS OF AMAZING MUSIC !!
I love that vibrato 80s!
Thank you for sharing
I like listening the story behind. Give me more, i'll watch it all. :)
A GOLD VOICE🥰
he looks like Anakin when Luke removes the Vader helmet
😁😁😁
Every since I heard this song, it is one of those I have thought about even in these days.
we all should say thank you to tobias sammet......
For returning Michael back on metal stage?
@@CyrilViXP yes
Love the sense of Helloween humour with the statement and devices in the background
Хорошо, что все вернулись
Не все, но всё равно хорошо
@@kzagarin Да
HELLOWEEN FOREVER
Wow😍
It ’s a very interesting interview
Thank you for share it🙏💕
I'm a big fan of Helloween....yes why they didn't play it anymore in the concert
They did play KOTC during Pumpkins United tour, just not on every date.
This is a good idea. More stories.
Kiske you are awesome. God bless you!
can't way to see pumpkins once again on tour! let's hope for a better days!
Mr Kiske I just love you Sir ❤️
So good to see him back to helloween
Classic!
The king...
Michael Kiske remember We Got the Right, please 🙏
Yes! One of my favorites.
Meaning,,, totally give new meaning. Presence, acceleration, existence in springs...
Always feel hung like a choir on your romance of voice 🙏 Kriske
Rob
Super to be able to listen to michel kiske memories. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
welcome back
say what you want but that album was great :)
I love you, Michi. ❤
Do more like theseeee
Can't wait for the new album 🙂.
for me Kiske has always been the best singer in Helloween followed closely by Kai. never really liked Deris but i will say i really like seeing them on stage altogether. just wish Roland & Uli were part of this
One and only🤘
Michael, please get a social media account!!! You are amazing!
He does, he’s on Instagram as @sortofbedman
@@wtglb thank you very much! I had no clue :)
@@anyareynolds7832 it’s a strange account name, no idea what it means 😆 Kai Hansen is also on Instagram as @greyforcex1
@@wtglb Once, he was a using a Batman filter, and said: "Hi, I'm Batman, at least, sort of", then he mentioned that he had just woken up (That means he was still in bed)
So... you've got: "Sort of", "Batman" and "Bed". Drop the "Bat" and add "Bed".
Get it? Hahaha, it was his first IG post, just scroll down until you find it :)
@@carloschong2795 Thank you for the insight, I had no clue what the name meant 😆
I loved it! And now I wanna see Kai Hansen talking as well!
Finally something New
Grande voz!!!
киске лучший вокалист на этой земле!)
Pink Bubbles go ape is a good album
Yeah it’s sad how bad of a reputation it gets, as it still feels very much like Helloween (unlike Chameleon).
@@MegaMicah12 there is nothing wrong with Chameleon
Upload videos with Deris and Weikath please 🙏🙏🙏
I love you so much 🔥🔥🔥
He's so handsome
He was very handsome between the ages of 18 & 26
After 30 ,his looks started to go down hill...especially after he had his head shaved..
( description ,RUclips )
V
He looks like a cue ball now
@@KateryReminiec9399 whatever
He's hot af now. I'd drink his bathwater 😍😍😍😍😍
O Helloween só ganhou com a volta dessa lenda na boa,o Helloween esta muito melhor agora,mais poderoso,e calaram a boca dos críticos trazendo dr volta o kiske ... Helloween foi Perfect nisso parabéns por trazer meu ídolo sem deixar o Andi...
I still love Pink and Chameleon albums, not the Best ones, but with many great songs!
this is one of the better songs from pink bubbles go ape actually the album itself was underated I will admit still do not understand the title maybe because they germans have no sense of humour they thought lets give it a really odd title but not a bad record not as good as the keeper albums but glad to see Michael back in the band looking forward to the new album
Батя, и этим все сказано
❤❤❤
The Best Band!
We are waiting for new songs
Cheers...
Why does the computer on the desk have no monitor...
Salve kiske
chameleon y weikath 🤔😁
you could always tell kiske had a thing for this song
What about the new album?
someone knows something about the NEW ALBUM ?? ??
Kiske 👍
Please Michael grow your hair back. I love you bro more than any other singer but there's only one Rob halford. Helloween has always been my favorite band along with savatage. Bring back uli and roland. Then truly all the pumpkins will be United
Pretty sure he can't lol, he went full bald since the late 90s or early 2000s.
Poderia ter a legenda pelo menos em inglês, seria mais fácil para quem não conhece muito bem o idioma inglês entender o que ele disse. 🎃🎸😏👍
