Long time no see
Hey,
benutzt man heute noch MySpace? Sollte ich nen eigenen Blog machen oder aus nostalgischen Gründen hier bleiben?
Gleich zu Anfang. Mir werden häufig Videolinks zugeschickt, aber das hier ist eines der Besten. Es ist wohl das erstes Interview, was ich jemals gegeben habe. Ich weiß nicht, wie alt ich da bin und auch nicht, was ich bloß an dieser Frisur gut fand. Was ich noch weiß ist, dass es wohl im Hamburger Stadtpark aufgezeichnet wurde, in dem mein Stiefvater Fred mit seiner Band ein Konzert spielten. Mitte der Neunziger war Illegal 2001 deutschlandweit sehr bekannt und ich denke damals wurde ich von dieser ganzen Musikgeschichte ziemlich angefixt. Das waren ziemlich intensive Jahre und ich habe zum ersten Mal Backstageräume, Caterings, Fernsehkameras und was sonst noch alles dazu gehört, gesehen und halbwegs verarbeitet. So richtig gerafft habe ich das Ganze als kleines Kind natürlich nicht.
Ich habe das Video gerade eben, seit über 10 Jahren, das erste Mal wieder gesehen und es ist ein komisches Gefühl. Einerseits betrachte ich den kleinen Burschen als einen Fremden, anderseits kommt so ein vetrautes, aber altes Gefühl in mir auf. Ein Gefühl, dass ich schon Jahrzehnte nicht mehr gefühlt habe. Kennt ihr das?
An jedem neuen Tag entscheidet man, wer man ist. Bin ich die Person, die ich noch vor 5 Jahren war? Nein, aber es war notwendig diese Person zu sein, um zu werden wer ich bin. Und es hört nicht auf. Es geht immer weiter. Man lernt jeden Tag dazu, man verändert sich jeden Tag ein kleines Stück. Entweder man wird weiser oder man wird härter, man öffnet oder isoliert sich, weil man weiß, wie es ist verletzt zu werden. Im Grunde machen wir doch Alle das Gleiche durch. Wir lernen immer wieder neue Leute kennen, kommen näher in Kontakt und verändern uns dadurch. Weil wir durch genau diese Leute lernen, wer WIR selber sind und wer WIR sein wollen.
Also überleg mal, warum dich gewisse Dinge an einer anderen Person so aufregen? Es hat immer was mit dir zu tun. Immer.
Andere Leute nehmen nämlich die gleiche Person völlig anders war.
Naja, um ab zu schließen: Ich bin dankbar für die Zeit, auch wenn ich so vieles vergessen hab, bin ich dankbar. Es war eine schöne Zeit und selbst wenn ich mich nicht mehr an jedes Detail (wie das Interview) erinnern kann und sich Leute verändert, sich Wege getrennt haben, bleibt diese Zeit für immer in mir. Ein Teil von mir ist in diesem kleinen Burschen und dieser kleine Bursche ist ein kleiner Teil von mir.

Hey,
do people still use Myspace? Should I make a new blog or for nostalgic reasons stay here?
Right from the start. I frequently sent Videolinks, but here is one of the best. It is probably the first video that i ever gave. I don't know how old I was there, and also what I thought was good about that hairstyle. What I do know, is that it was probably filmed at the Hamburger Stadtpark, in which my stepdad, Fred, and his band played a concert at.
In the mid-ninety's, Illegal 2001, was well-known throughout Germany, and I think at this time I was pretty fixed from the whole the music-history. These were relativley intense years for the first time I had seen the backstage rooms, catering, TV cameras, and everything else that belongs with it, and how it all worked. As a kid, I of course, didn't grasp it all.
I have just seen the video for the first time in over 10 years, and it's a wierd feeling. On one side i consider the little boy as a stranger, and other side, it's a familar, but old feeling. A feeling, that I haven't felt in a decade. Do you know this?
In every new day, you learn who you are. Am I the person I was 5 years ago? No, but it was neccesary to be that person, to be who I am. And it doesn't stop. It always continues. You learn everyday, everyday you change yourself a little bit. Either you become wiser become harder, you open yourself,or you isolate yourself, because you know how it is to be hurt. We all do it through the same thing. We are always meeting new people, become closer in contact, and change ourselves for it. Because we learn through these people, who WE ourselves are and WHO we want to be.
So think about it, why do you find some people so hurtful? It always has to do with yourself. Always. Other people take the same person differently.
Well, to finish off: I am thankful for the time, also when I have forgotten so much, i am thankful. It was a nice time and even though I can't remember every detail (like the interview) and people change, paths seperate, these times always stay in me. A piece of me is in this boy, and this boy is a small piece of me.
