Interview with Bernhard Lloyd

I had a small interview with Bernhard Lloyd, and a thought it would be interesting for you to read it...Probably you already know everything.

-Why did you start Atlantic Popes?

Because Max is my best friend, I met him 11 years ago....and really like the
songs we have been doing over all these years and it seemed to be time to
release them.

-Is this something you want to continiue with in the future?

Yes, I will continue working with Max. And we will release more CDīs.

-More albums with AP?

Yes.

-Your favourite song from the AP cd? Why?

Thatīs a hard Question. I really love them all, for different reasons. May
be "ICE" is the best one for me. But ....

-What do you think about the project Dreamscapes 9?

Thatīs great. I love it. "Moonboy" is a fantastic song!!

-Do you think itīs a good idea to release one song every month?

Itīs for sure a new idea. I think itīs interesting. Why not?

-Why arenīt you involved in this?

Well Marian and me, we have our times when we work together, and we have our
times when we need a break. It was like that in the past as well. Remember
the 5 years between BTB and Prostitute?

-Talking abot Alphaville, do you miss the old good days in the 80īs?

Not really. I mean, they are as a very important experience captured in my
memory. But I wouldnīt want to go back.

-What would you have done today if AV havenīt been so big back then?

No Idea!

-If Mertens and/or Echolette would join AV again, do you think that AV could
climp the hitlists again? Can AV do this without them? How?

-Climbing the hitlist has a lot to do with luck. Being in the right moment
with the right song at the right place. Itīs something that you canīt force.
Or do you think that "Flame" is so much worse than
"Forever Young"?

-You favourite song with AV? Why?

Many: Ainīt it strange, Next Generation, SLAM, Elevator, Soul Messiah, Lassie
come home....
Itīs not possible to reduce it to one song...depends on the mood Iīm in.


Hope you enjoyed it...*lol*


-Iīm your best friend-the dream-

Well Bernhard!
I donīt think that FY or Flame is worser than the other, they are both very good songs. Flame is my absolute favourite AV-song of all time, and it will forever be in my heart.

Well, I didnīt remember the 5 years between TBB and P but I know about them..*lol*
Iīve heard much about that time...
AV almost split in that time, am I right?

And Bernie, youīre so welcome...
I love doing interviews!

-Iīm your best friend-the dream-
