PAR RECI UMESTO PESME

visnja i eicca na EXIT-u 2006.:ok:




Apocalyptica... jedan od najboljih metal bendova, ili je mozda rec o klasici...prosudite sami. Ne bih sada zamarala njihovim biografskim podacima, verujem da vecinu i sami znate. Fantasticni koncerti, koji vas ne mogu ostaviti ravnodusnim, sjajne pesme... sve je to doprinelo njihovoj sve vecoj popularnosti. Neki su ih proglasili cak i mainstream bendom. Prosle godine su svirali na Exitu. Nazalost, shvatila sam da mnogi nasi ljudi daleko od toga da su sazreli za takve koncerte,i publika,a i mediji, koji su potpuno neinformisani (mnogi novinari nisu znali ni imena ljudima iz benda sa kojima su radili intervju). Intervju koji sledi je malo kraci, ali, ipak, momci zamalo da zakasne na koncert. Osim toga, to je i, cini mi se, jedini ok intervju koji je Eicca tom prilikom dao (dok su ostali novinari pricali sa njim on je na svaka dva-tri minuta izlazio ). Ok, a sada procitajte sledece redove; ako vec ne slusate, obavezno pocnite da slusate ovaj bend, i ne propustite njihov koncert.

Da li si nervozan na koncertu?

Eicca: Ne.

Nikada?

Eicca: Nikada.

A na početku, kada ste tek počeli da svirate?

Eicca: Daaa! I ranije, da. Narocito kada smo imali prvi veci nastup pred publikom, bili smo zaista nervozni jer zaista nismo znali kako će publika reagovati, hoce li nas ljudi gadjati flašama i sličnim stvarima. Ha ha ha. Naravno, postoji nešto specijalno, i imaš ograničeno vreme da se pripremiš, i, znaš, sve se uklopi...Ne znam, imali smo puno koncerata i stekli smo rutinu za to, i...

Slusala sam vas pre dve godine u Budimpešti...

Eicca: Na Metal maniji sa Rammstein-om?

Ne, na Szigetu... i bilo je fenomenalno...

Eicca: Hvala.

Reci mi kako se osećaš tokom koncerta?

Eicca: Vrlo različita osećanja. Ponekad mi je čak i dosadno. Ha ha ha! Ne, ne, to nije tačno.Ali...ne znam, sve zavisi od pesme koju sviraš...od trenutka... Sviramo vrlo razlišite pesme... neke su jako tužne, ili su emocionalne, neke su veoma mračne... ulazim u raspoloženje pesme. Ne obracam pažnju na samo izvodjenje, pokušavam da osetim pesmu, udjem u nju i tu nadjem motivaciju... zato i osećanja tokom koncerta jako variraju...ponekad su sasvim fina ponekad prepuna agresije. Emocije su poput voza u zabavnom parku koji ide gore - dole. Koncert je poput putovanja kroz mnoštvo različitih osećanja.

Shvatam. Koja je tvoja omiljena pesma...i muzičar?

Eicca: Hmm...Teško pitanje. Postoji mnogo različite muzike u svetu...

U poslednje vreme...?

Eicca: Rekao bih da moja omiljena muzika i dalje dolazi sa klasične strane. Dimitrij Šostaković je oduvek bio moj najdraži kompozitor. Njegova 11. simfonija. To mi se oduvek svidjalo. Najmračnije što je on napisao. Sto se toče rok scene...ne znam...volim Bjork, "Joga" sa albuma Homogenic. Naravno, ima ima mnogo dobrih metal stvari. Danas sam slušao u glavi, nažalost samo u glavi, 'Disciple', Slayer-ovu 'Disciple'...

Oni sviraju za dva dana na Exitu.

Eicca: Stvarno? O, shit! Prropustili smo ih! Ha ha ha.
Čime bi se bavio da nisi muzičar?

Eicca: Hmmm.

Da nikada nisi svirao violončelo...

Eicca: Mislim da bih radio nešto u vezi sa konjima, zato što sam ih oduvek voleo. Kada sam imao petnaestak godina voleo sam da idem na hipodrom. Mislio sam da će to biti moja buduća profesija, da podučavam jahanje ili...ne znam, nešto u vezi sa konjima. Mozda da vodim farmu sa svojim sinovima. Znam da zvuči čudno, ali... Ha ha ha!!!

Ok. Šta je sa bendovima iz Finske? Da li se družiš sa nekima od njih?

Eicca: Da, naravno.

Sa kojima?

Eicca: Mnogima od njih. Na primer HIM, The Rasmus, The 69 Eyes, Nightwish...Uglavnom poznajemo sve bendove, na neki način smo prijatelji. Sa nekim bendovima bliži, sa nekima ne nako bliski, ali znamo te ljude.

Gde bi živeo kada ne bi živeo u Finskoj?

Eicca: Voleo bih da živim u.... Norveškoj...

Hladno je...

Eicca:...Norveškoj ili Švedskoj. Ne znam zašto. Moji lični koreni su tako duboko u Finskoj prirodi, i možda mi se zato svidjaju zemlje sa sličnim pejzažima. Zato mi se te zemlje i čine najprijatnijima.

Imaš li neku poruku za fanove iz Jugoslavije? Znam da ih ima puno.

Eicca: Najpre... jako nam je žao zbog otkazanih koncerata u prošlosti...sramota nas je zbog toga...ali nažalost nije sve u našim rukama. Bend nešto ugovori, ali onda dodje neko i kaže: 'moraćemo da otkažemo ovo i ovo i uraditi ovo i ovo...'. Tako da, pre svega, jako nam je žao zbog svega toga i srećni smo što smo najzad ovde. Zato što je trebalo da dodjemo nekoliko puta... I radujemo se što ćemo najzad svirati ljudima u Srbiji ili Jugoslaviji? Kako je sada zovete - Srbija ili Jugoslavija?

Ne znam tačno... Mislim da je Srbija... ali nisam sigurna...

Eicca: Da... ha ha ha!

Očekujemo dobar koncert. Ovde su ljudi toplog srca i veoma fini tako da bi trebalo da i njima i nama bude super.

Misliš li da će koncert biti bolji od onog u Budimpešti, na Szigetu? Ili isti? Bice super i ako bude isti.

Eicca: Teško je reći koji koncert je bolji, ali, ako ništa drugo, bend je bolji nego tada, tako da ipak mislim da će večeras biti bolje.

Hoćete li večeras svirati 'Path'?

Eicca: Da, počećemo tom pesmom.

Super!
Eicca: Ha ha ha.

Ok. To je to. Hvala ti.

Eicca: Hvala tebi. Vidimo se.

Fade To Black


Life it seems, will fade away
Drifting further every day
Getting lost within myself
Nothing matters no one else
I have lost the will to live
Simply nothing more to give
There is nothing more for me
Need the end to set me free
Things are not what they used to be
Missing one inside of me
Deathly lost, this can't be real
Cannot stand this hell I feel
Emptiness is filing me
To the point of agony
Growing darkness taking dawn
I was me, but now He's gone
No one but me can save myself, but it to late
Now I can't think, think why I should even try
Yesterday seems as though it never existed
Death Greets me warm, now I will just say good-bye

[DrinChe]

Bittersweet


I'm giving up the ghost of love
In the shadows cast on devotion

She is the one that I adore
Creed of my silent suffocation

Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

Bittersweet
I won't give up
I'm possessed by her

I'm wearing a cross
She's turning to my god

Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

Bittersweet
I want you
[I'm only wanting you]
And I need you
[I'm only needing you]

Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny
Break this bittersweet spell on me
Lost in the arms of destiny

Bittersweet

HOPE


Hope is beauty, personified
At her feet the world, hypnotized

A million flashes, A million smiles
And on the catwalk she flies in style


* But in this heart of darkness
* All hope lies lost and torn
* All fame, like love is fleeting
* When there's no hope anymore


Pain and glory, hand in hand
A Sacrifice, the highest price

Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper she was gone
Like when angels fall...


* In this heart of darkness
* All hope lies on the floor
* Love like fame, is fleeting
* When there's no hope anymore


Like the poison in her arm
Like a whisper she was gone

Like an angel
Angels fall...

Faraway

There\'s something in the way, you\'re always somewhere else,
Feelings have deserted me to a point of no return,
I don\'t believe in God, but I\'ll pray for you.

Don\'t you slip away from me, it\'s you I live for, don\'t you leave,
No, don\'t you slip away from me, I\'m vulnerable to your love.

There is something in the ?-way you\'re always somewhere else,
Feelings have deserted me to a point of no return,
So the light fades out and youre so close to losing.

Don\'t you slip away from me, it\'s you I live for, dont you leave,
No, don\'t you slip away from me , I\'m vulnerable to your love,
Don\'t you slip away from me, it\'s you I live my life for. No don\'t leave.

Don\'t you slip away from me, I\'m vulnerable to your love,
Don\'t you slip away.

For Whom The Bell Tolls

Make his fight on the hill in the early day
Constant chill deep inside
Shouting gun, on they run through the endless grey
On the fight, for they are right, yes, by who's to say?
For a hill men would kill, why? They do not know
Suffered wounds test there their pride
Men of five, still alive through the raging glow
Gone insane from the pain that they surely know
chorus:
For whom the bell tolls
Time marches on
For whom the bell tolls
Take a look to the sky just before you die
It is the last time you will
Blackened roar massive roar fills the crumbling sky
Shattered goal fills his soul with a ruthless cry
Stranger now, are his eyes, to this mystery
He hears the silence so loud
Crack of dawn, all is gone except the will to be
Now the will see what will be, blinded eyes to see

[DrinChe]

From Out Of Nowhere


Tossed into my mind, stirring the calm

You splash me with beauty and pull me down

`Cause you come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

Obsession rules me - I'm yours from the start

I know you see me - Our eyes interlock

`Cause you come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there

Don't know if I'll laugh or cry

One minute here and one minute there

And then you wave good-bye...

Sifting to the bottom, every day for two

All energy funnels, all becomes you

`Cause you come from out of nowhere

My glance turns to a stare

One minute here and one minute there

Don't know if I'll laugh or cry

One minute here and one minute there

And thats all inside

One minute here and one minute there

And then you wave good-bye...

My Friend of Misery


You just stood there screaming
fearing no one was listening to you
they say the empty can rattles the most
the sound of your voice must soothe you
hearing only what you want to hear
and knowing only what you've heard
you you're smothered in tragedy
you're out to save the world

misery
you insist that the weight of the world
should be on your shoulders
misery
there's much more to life than what you see
my friend of misery

you still stood there screaming
no one caring about these words you tell
my friend before your voice is gone
one man's fun is another's hell
these times are sent to try men's souls
but something's wrong with all you see
you you'll take it on all yourself
remember, misery loves company

misery
you insist that the weight of the world
should be on your shoulders
misery
there's much more to life than what you see
my friend of misery

you just stood there creaming
my friend of misery

Apocalyptica - Path :ok::fijuk:8)


I want to live in fire
with all the taste I desire
it’s all good if you let me dive
with sharks on the ground

you loose your routine
you loose your routine
you loose your routine
cause I found my path

what the hell are you trying
now I know there is something more
what happened to you
still staying on my path
are you still denying
now I know there is something more
that this is the truth
it’s all in you

what do you came for
what did you expect to find
what do you came for
what did you expect to find
what do you came for
what did you expect to find
what do you came for
what did you expect to find

so boundless I feel
and boundless all my fears
stop running back to old times

you loose your routine
cause I found my path

what the hell are you trying
now I know there is something more
what happened to you
still staying on my path
are you still denying
now I know there is something more
that this is the truth
it’s all in you

what the hell are you trying
now I know there is something more
what happened to you
still staying on my path
are you still denying
now I know there is something more
that this is the truth
it’s all in you
