Here it comes, the interview number 20
from my flying reporter Robert who I wish to thank here publicly
and I hope we can do this again! :-) But to the business. German hope
Roman Lob had a chat with him, too and they talked his music taste,
holiday plans and how does it feel to be a sex symbol? Read it here:
Who is Roman Lob besides the singer we
know? Hobbies, interests..?
Who is Roman Lob? Me and myself and I!
My greatest hobby is singing but I like also extreme sports,
snowboarding, biking and... that's all I guess.
Did you concidered stydying after high
school or was it clear that you would go for the music business right
away?
No, I have done studies, industrial
mechanic. But I have been singing since I was 13 and it's cool, I
like it a lot.
What kind of music do you listen to
yourself?
I like heavy metal music, hardcore,
deathcore... but I like also pop, rock'n roll, electro.... bands like
Kiss, AC/DC, Metallica....
So we can maybe expect different kind
of music from you in the future?
Yes, of course! My debut album is
called Changes and there are different elements in the songs;
up tempo, ballads, acoustic songs...
How do you deal with your instant fame
in Germany? You're very popular at the moment.
Yeah, it's great! I like it, people in
Germany are very chilled, relaxed.... I like it.
Was it your dream to become a star?
Of course! It's great, I like it! It's
awesome :-) And it's great here, the stage is huge, the sound is
good, it's great!
How was your album received in Germany?
It was #1 in iTunes as well as the
single Standing still. And the critics was good... and not so good,
but it's ok!
Are you planning an international
career or will you focus on the German speaking market?
International would be great, it
certainly is an option and Eurovision can surely help in that.
Will work more with Jamie Cullum who
co-write your song?
Why not? I will ask and if Jamie is up
for it we're gonna do it.
How do you like to be a sort of sex
symbol? Many girls and a lot of guys, too, like you a lot!
Sex symbol??!! :-o Oh yeah, hmm... I
like it! It's cool! Yeah!
Is there someone special in your life
right now?
…. (long silence)... No.
And what are your plans for summer?
I will play some festivals, make music,
write new songs, release another single.... and some holidays, too,
by the sea of course!
Now that you have become a part of this
Eurovision tradition, do you have any favourite among the previous
German entries?
The first one I saw was 1998, Guildo
Horn. I was 8. I liked it. He's so crazy. And Stefan Raab as well.
Thank you Roman for this interview and
best of luck on Saturday!
