Stefanie Heinzmann: "Women are fed up with feeling bad all the time!"

There are people who are so warm and friendly that you immediately feel better after talking to them. The singer Stefanie Heinzmann is just as human. It has been more than ten years since Stefanie Heinzmann became known for her victory in a casting competition by Stefan Raab.

In January 2008, the Swiss singer sang at "Stefan is looking for the superstar, who should sing what he wants, and like to perform on RTL!" ? short: SSDSDSSWEMUGABRTLAD ? with songs by Joss Stone or Alicia Keys to the finale, which she won at the end with the song "My Man Is a Mean Man".

We are often so mean to ourselves

Now Stefanie Heinzmann brings out her fifth album: on March 22, 2019 appears "All We Need Is Love"the most honest album yet" by Stefanie, as the young singer, who has just celebrated her 30th birthday, herself says: After a very difficult time in her life, she celebrates life and love with a lot of new energy, the arrival and release of things that burden us - for example with the hit single "Build a house"Stefanie along with"All colors"recorded, and the emotional ballad"Mother's Heart"In the very touching song Stefanie tells how she already tormented herself with ideals of beauty, which is supposed to relieve us of the pressure to constantly compare, to apologize, to perfect.

"I have phases, because I just think I'm totally stupid, Am I female enough? Are the breasts too small? Is the butt too thick? We are often so mean to ourselves. That's when my parents came to mind, who are just proud of me no matter what I do. For me, I'm the prettiest and greatest girl in the world, "says Stefanie, which inspired her to write" Mother's Heart ".

Why Stefanie loves butterflies so much

Why is so important to her that especially women stop being so hard with themselves, why they like butterflies so much and what their tattoos mean, Stefanie Heinzmann has revealed to us in this conversation in Hamburg:

ChroniquesDuVasteMonde.com: Dear Stefanie, Your new album will be released on March 22, 2019 and is called "All We Need Is Love". Why did you choose this title?

Stefanie Heinzmann: We started writing three years ago and three years ago I was really tired and did not even get access to the new album. I just thought, 'Oh God, where, I just want to sleep and rest and help ' and then have? In the last two years, I have spent a lot of time with myself and with my life and much questioning, much reflection? and it's all about love. Especially for self-love. I am incredibly sensitive and have noticed that I am always very insecure in phases. After all, you completely lose touch with reality, you are only mean to yourself, and if you then look around at what's happening in the world right now, how much fear, misunderstandings and hatred are fueled? I just came to the conclusion that all we need is love? for ourselves, for our fellow human beings, for our planet, for the things we do. Love is the key.

Which songs on the album are you particularly interested in?

That's very difficult to say because I think that's the most honest album I've ever written. This whole process from the last three years is in this album. Each song tells a different story. But just a song like "All We Need Is Love"is a key song for me, I remember, that was one of the first songwriting sessions, and I was actually at this stage, where I was very tired and just did not get such a good rap, to those songwriters And then I opened up to it again and again, and then I met the singer-songwriter Jack Isaac, he's such a wonderful person, he's so full of love, he's become a wonderful friend by now, and I'm fine with that Love is really all we need, love is such a strong feeling that makes us people, that can make us desperate and spur us on and go in every direction, and then we had this song and that that was the start of the album for me, and from then on I knew: that's where the album has to go, that's what I want to say.

It is such a pity that although one knows how important love is, it is often so difficult to keep loving action in one's life.

Yes, it is amazing how bad that is! But that's often the case. I think that man just has to learn, that's why he's on this planet.I mean, everything that is healthy tastes less good than anything unhealthy. That's right, for some reason. And in love it is very similar. It's such a wonderful feeling, but for some reason it's negative things that trigger us a lot more. They do not want to let us go. If I have 15 good comments on Instagram? and a bad one, that triggers me instead of the 15 good ones. That's crazy! The brain is so blatant. And that's a decision you make. And that's definitely a responsibility you have. It's not always easy, but it's worth it. Because what comes around feels so incredibly beautiful.

As a person in public you have to take a lot of criticism. What gives you self-assurance?

Of course the people around me. I think that's the key. Man should not be alone, he is not made for that. I have wonderful friends, I have great management, I have a wonderful family that always catches me and where I get a lot of love. But also the work on myself, indeed. I have learned to be fine with myself. I have learned to value myself and to love myself. That helps a lot. Now when people come and are negative, I mean, I'm insanely sensitive, there are also bad days, you can distance yourself less, but basically that helps. That's funny, I have such a tip: What I always do, when I come to people I do not know so well, or to people who may be a bit negative, then I pack myself into a golden egg, that's big and all around me and then just keep the attitude, that everything I hear and see is just very interesting. I will not let anything through this golden egg shell and just look at everything very relaxed. That helps me alot.

And if you have faith, will you come out of it?

Yes, the good thing is, the egg does not prevent anything that is beautiful. I am totally open and I love good people and I love the love and if something beautiful happens, then you are free anyway. But I realize when I get into situations where I have to protect myself somehow, then I mentally get into this egg and that helps a lot.

Oh come on what ...? # 10yearchallenge because the last 10 years have been so incredible and I am so thankful
