People's "shikidym," as they like to call the Ukrainian singer Viktor Pavlik, the other day, traveled around Kiev on a bike in a leather jacket and helmet. To learn in this image of the artist of romantic ballads not immediately could even close. No, Pavlik did not change his image and did not sign up for rockers!.
The artist went on this experiment for the sake of his favorite artist, the legend of Italian music, the Grammy nominee, the World Music Awards winner - Zucchero, who will perform in the capital of the world tour with a solo concert.
On the eve of the arrival of the best musician of the planet, Ukrainian stars sang his songs. One of the first in this flash mob was Viktor Pavlik. The singer chose the hottest Italian hit - "Baila morena". In order to flawlessly perform the Spanish business card Zucchero in Spanish, the singer seriously engaged with native speakers.
"My acquaintance with Zucchero began with the song" Senza una donna ", - says Victor Pavlik. - I do not remember exactly where she heard it. Maybe at the disco; Music was then played on bobbins, there were no FM radio stations. But "Senza una donna" and "Baila morena" sounded everywhere. As a child, I loved the Nazareth group and the song "Dream on". Thirty years have passed - and I personally met with vocalist Dan McCafferty, we made friends, I flew to him for his birthday. He has already retired, no longer singing, but could I ever think that I will sing the song of my childhood with Dan! So with Zucchero: who knows - maybe in the future we'll meet and sing "Baila morena" a duet ... ".
The singer, he said, puts Zucchero on the same level as Joe Cocker, but considers him an artist for a selected layer of listeners.
"Sting is not for everyone either. Knowing his songs well, I understand that Sting has five compositions that can be hummed, but listening to them for a long time is very difficult. Zucchero, on the contrary drive. He has a very good energy, he's a cool guy, firmach!
For me, Zucchero always went in parallel with Eros Ramazotti. But in the style of music and a hoarse voice I put it next to Joe Cocker - they have a fateful pitch. An interesting artist, and I believe that his visit is very important for Kiev. I want Zucchero concert to be held at our highest level and left vivid memories of Ukraine. I think that with God's help everything will be great, "Pavlik concluded..
Recall, the only performance Zucchero will take place in Kiev on September 14 in the Palace "Ukraine".
