"The film" The Caucasian Captive "I know by heart"
- Sasha, you're going a long time in Kiev with a tour?

- Yes. I am very glad that this is not only a meeting with the fans, but the real holiday for me. Imagine, since the day I won the Eurovision, I was only two days without concerts. A couple of months ago I was in Kiev, but then did not have time to look. We can say, is familiar with your city only from the car window. Hopefully, this time I will show all the fun.

- Do you work hard, earn good money for sure. At that spending money? (By some estimates, only on some tunes for mobile phones fisherman got about a million dollars. - Authors.)

- Do not have time to spend it (laughs). I really began to make good money, but that's not important, but what I absolutely did not change. Hopefully stellar disease does not threaten me. I've always dreamed about his own boat and now I can fulfill this dream. The present crisis has its positive aspects: many things are cheaper, yachts including. But until you got no boat, no car. Saving up money for a separate apartment. Now I live with their parents in a suburb of Oslo - a place Nessoden.

- How do you baluesh himself beloved?

- Once I made a really expensive gift. Pribolel, and had to go to another town for a concert. It is eight hours by train, but I'm absolutely shattered state. And then rented a helicopter, which quickly reached the desired location.

- It is time, then buy a helicopter! Say, parents do not travel with you on tour?

- Sometimes my father accompanied me on trips, but this time was unable to come to Ukraine. He's a violinist. At one time, a lot of touring, toured the entire Soviet Union. He spoke about the Carpathians, Odessa - in general, his favorite city. On the eve of my departure, my father said that he envied me, because I am going to Ukraine. It turns out that his current visit will be visiting with three concerts in the Ukrainian capital (smiling): Kharkov (first capital), Odessa (South) and Kiev (official).

- They say that in your repertoire of songs have appeared in Russian?

- Yes, but it is a surprise. I can only say that in addition to tracks from my debut album, released this summer, the songs will be in English, but I still quail "Song about bears" from the legendary Soviet film "The Caucasian Captive", which simply love and know by heart. I taught a few Ukrainian words that could from the scene to communicate with their devotees. For example, learned the phrase "I'll kohav!". In my opinion, pretty well. When I looked at the map of Ukraine, pointed out that some of the names of your cities really are very similar to the Norwegian abusive phrases (laughs).

- Is it true that you have secured the support of the Philip Kirkorov?

- During the Eurovision in Moscow Philip invited to visit. We drank tea, he treated fritters. And we talked about artists. I called the artists that I like, and Philip promised: "Well, we can arrange for you a duet with them."

- The press wrote that you and "Tattoo", and Dima Bilan are planning to write songs.

- Philip, I hope to see again when I am in Moscow. With regard to cooperation, it would be happy to sing a duet with "Tattoo." While not familiar with the girls, Katya and Julia, but I hope we still seem interesting. From Ukrainian singers I like Ani Lorak.

"Change phone number, and now fans can not call me"
- You have a huge army of fans, the letters come with bags?

- In the digital age often write letters by e-mail. I try not to offend anyone - responsible as possible. By the way, the Internet now and then there is information about my girlfriend. In fact, it is not true, now my heart is free. Unfortunately, most do not have time to get acquainted with the girls.

- The fans, perhaps, you do not give the passage, has encrypted?

- No, no, no caps, dark glasses and black cloaks. I do not like. Besides, I think, if I do get dressed, it is only going to pay more attention to others.

- A number of mobile changed often?

- After the competition so far only once has changed. And it has itself to blame: first handed out your number to the left and right, not knowing what I was doing and what the scope can achieve this element. Benefit current phone number known to few, so fans dials to me very rarely.

- Do you remember that you were surprised when the six years he moved from his native Minsk in Norway?

- Literally everything. I believe that Norway - the most beautiful country in the world. I am a child of the Soviet Union, arrived there in 1992. On many things we never dreamed of something that not even unaware of. There's a lot of freedom, all very positive. In Belarus in those days life was hard, people are angry, and in Norway, all smiling, in a good mood. This could not fail to impress. However, the discipline was not very. My classmates could not understand why I need to be addressed for two hours a day with music.

- After the "Eurovision" you have a lot of travel around the world, is to compare ...

- I was very surprised by Finland. They have a mix of Norwegian and prosperous Russia's freedom of creativity. This is very unusual. I feel it like a fish in water.

- In Kiev you came from that very happy violin, which has brought you luck in the contest?

- Violin, of course, became legendary. Now take a lease for concerts violin better, but do something in my profession do not need an expensive tool, because the violin is very expensive (think) ... "volume" - loudly. They have a strong sound, but I do not need it, because the floor with a microphone.
