Heino: Happy birthday greetings from his music colleagues
Heino, one of the greats in the hit business, is celebrating his 80th birthday. The round birthday is framed by an album ("... and Bye") and a tour in 2019. However, Heino will take the hat afterwards, say goodbye to the stage and go into well-deserved retirement. And while the singer with the unmistakable baritone, as he told the news agency spot on news in an interview, with his Hannelore (76) in "the sun" and is on his birthday "the soul dangle" send him befriended musicians and Travel companion from wet and cold Germany congratulations.
"A big name in German show business"
Heino and Roland Kaiser (66) have known each other since the early eighties and shared many stages. Ever since the beginning of Kaiser's career, they have "met again and again and he has always been a constant in German show business," the 66-year-old told spot on news. Kaiser is particularly impressed: "It is a great achievement to be able to reinvent yourself as an artist over the decades and to be successful." For his birthday, he wishes Heino above all "health, happiness and a long life".
Singer Thomas Anders (55) also pays tribute to Heino's decades-long career: "You've had a great career and really sensational success," said the former Modern Talking frontman. He is looking forward to seeing Heino and his wife Hannelore again and wishes them: "Stay healthy and have a great life, from me only the best and the warmest congratulations."
"The beauty of today is that you will never really be completely gone"
Also Wolfgang Petry (67) is a long time in the music business and had "many points of contact" with Heino. Recently, they even recorded the song "Ich bme" for Heino's farewell album "... and goodbye" together. The two had "always very well understood," Petry continued. Of course, he wishes the birthday child "all the best and a lot of health". But also that Heino after "the end of his career will have many great experiences with his wife Hannelore".
Whether Petry could imagine a hit landscape without a Heino? "The beauty of today is that you will never really be completely gone, all the old gigs and the highlights of a career are always and everywhere available and thus Heino and his music will continue to make for a good atmosphere," said Petry for sure.
"Enjoy your birthday with Caramba and Caracho"
The Austrian pop singer Andy Borg (58) finds: "The 80 is good for you!" That Heino but so slowly says goodbye to the stage, the 58-year-old would not quite believe, because his hits were "for many years our companion". Borg wishes him a happy birthday: "Enjoy your birthday with Caramba and Caracho." That the two run into each other again, Borg is quite sure: "You called your last album '... and goodbye, I'd rather say goodbye!"
Companion Bata Illic (79) recalls: "At the beginning of my career, we sat in the dressing room together before a TV appearance, you already knew each other and I was a little-known singer." You came up to me and were very nice to me You asked me about my songs and shortly after invited me to Dusseldorf and introduced me to various agencies, I will never forget your helpfulness, "says Illic. She was a role model for him. Heino has always been "a true philanthropist". For his birthday, he wishes him "health, satisfaction, lots of nice people and just love and good".
