Dima Bilan: "Michael Jackson for me - like an alien"

Despite the lack of time, Dima Bilan took the time to interview the agreement to satisfy the curiosity of the reader and not about feelings of "stroking" Michael Jackson and the creative promise plans, a new sensation. - Dima, Michael Jackson - a living legend (thankfully, still alive) - Listen to your songs, the squat already. Not priplyuschilo of such surreal images? - What I can feel, see a man whose music and listen for more than 20 years, the entire planet Earth, when he sits on his haunches in front of you and listen - listen carefully! - Your own singing ... I do not know how to describe this feeling, - says Dmitry "MK". - But what is this feeling was completely different from anything I had to deal with before, obviously. Maybe this is really the area of surrealism. I remember as a child in some hairy 90 wanted to get to Moscow to watch a concert by Michael when he came here on tour. To at least see the corner of his eye. This is in addition to my dream of millions of people around the world. I grew up in, including his music ... In the last two years I have seen much, was at various events, both there and here, and in Europe and in America, and the "Euro Vision" and the World Music Awards, met with well-known and famous people, musicians, so I now with the to compare what can bypass analyze, and do not fall for any reason in a state of joy. But now, Michael Jackson for me - like an alien. If it easily change views. On one side you can see that he is unhappy. On the other hand, you know how big it is, and this size every day lives, it divides into with this personal drama, seems hidden, but at the same time, and obvious. He smiles, he is gentle, polite in all communications to react as if surprised child. Even the little things some. But it is - not a game, but a very natural state. At the same time - this is a universal sadness on his face, even when he smiles. Despite all these try to understand what he has in mind, and here at the very beginning a piece in mind. I remember as a child wanted to go to Moscow to get to see a concert by Michael when he came here on tour - Generally blown away? - Well, I was born with the demolition of the roof. Hee-hee. But the feeling of unreality was simple. Especially when it all happened in a very, as they say, informally, on sverhzakrytom reception, where there were about 150 guests from across the world's finest. Michael did not sing, but only as a guest. Moved a little funny - a little sideways, crouching slightly. Something that looked like a ghost from the movie "Casper and Friends" ... It really is an event - to meet with Michael. After all, he is a very private person. Remember in November at the World Music Awards in London, he was the only one who was allowed to drive close to the stage on a personal limo, even though it was riding arena? Ring protection. The organizers could not at this time agree to be photographed with him. And then there was all the ceremony, almost in my own way. - And what are you talking about two? - Well, you can say "speak." He said he liked my song, and I said, as he is still loved in our country, to his great tour in Moscow ... - Are you sure that, when he reached it! "So nice", she knocked on the cheek, then praise, and not beauty, so to speak, supernatural? You might just loved it - fresh, young ... almost a child. - I do not know, he just said hello - no hands and held her hand to her cheek. And I, that "so nice" believe he said, based on all together. Finally, it can be translated with different nuances - not just "what a beauty", as in a free translation, but insist "good", "great" ... - Is it true that he has the bill nose? - In fact, it looks a lot better than we think. He - a real human being is real and not a mummy. To really communicate. A little shorter than me. Only the color of his face is very different from all the other people - it's very white. A removable panel on the nose, I did not notice. - I think so Jackson was touched because your "Number One Fan" does not like the style, but the mood with something close to his own songs ... - Yes, it's amazing, but also in New York, people to whom we give this thing after hearing information, the same thing. Joked that, well, the young Jackson appeared ... from Russia. - And how was the "young Jackson's" guests of the holiday? - Well accepted. All lights. In fact, I wish I had taken dance with him. You could have a very nice room. Well, I went to the stage, congratulated Prince Azim Brunei, wished him priyatnenko oil is they have finished a long time, and pulled his long song "Number One Fan". Then he sang an Italian aria. I began to approach people to ask: Where, then who? I am proud to say that Russia, and all called here. He said that we are here is divine. Well, of course, many professional contacts with people from show business, with a genuine interest, who have asked me to work with Timbaland. So had important acquaintances, and this - the bottom line party that I am very satisfied. - Well, you all last year was very practical and bold success. Starting with "Euro Vision", continue to receive the results in graphs and a number of national music awards. ZD Awards went straight on in four nominations, had it happen to anyone on MTV - four nominations, and at today's award "Moose TV" - again four nominations. Some kind of magic number 4 ... - "Euro Vision", of course, a good push for everything. But there is another side to the coin. You can die quickly and then, or move on. Level of expectations of the audience after the success of an artist in this international competition is too high. And for an artist it is sometimes difficult. One can not always be at the top, you have to be silent for a while, save up emotions. I met this difficulty life well-being after the "Euro Vision". But do not regret it. Since the "Euro Vision" given above all a great sense of confidence, and it helps now that creativity and my work, for example, Jim Binns and Timbaland have already entered a completely different turn. - You once plunged into the black music ... - She has always liked me - black music. It breathes, it is alive. But have to love and to do with it here, far from his roots - the process a bit sterile and artificial. And work with the people that style for which it created - great life itself, simple. Totally different understanding and dive! While I am certainly a man with a Russian soul and I can not ignore the fact that what I've done. Therefore, working with Timbaland, I was a co-author of some things because.'s Still perceive music in a certain way Whatever the black, its great, or vice versa, may be stylish, it's still music to my soul, my feelings, and I hope they find an audience here. Well, actually, they always have.
