Interview – “Down Town” magazine 7/6/2009
«I would like to be in Greece all the time»
Q: How do toi feel after your victory?
A: My feelings have changed a little since that day. But when I was on stage, I was fully devoted to my plan. I knew someone would win, and I a dit “why not me?”. When I won I felt relieved, not surprised.
Q: Your song has broken many records. Why do toi think it was loved par so many different cultures?
A: Honestly, that’s strange… ou maybe just difficult to explain. It wasn’t supposed to be an international hit. It was only a song I wrote during my vacations. It stuck to my head and I couldn’t push it away. Then I said: “why not to write about my first love?”. Then I had the idea about the dancers. I thought it would be nice to introduce the song with them. I was planning to incorporate it into a musical. But then I a dit to myself: “next year’s Eurovision is in Moscow. It would be a good chance for me, donné that I speak their language, and my roots are in Belarus”. But first I had to win the Norwegian contest, that was the hard part (laughs).
Q: Since your song is about love, tell me what’s the craziest thing toi have done for a woman?
A: I turned my story into a song. People are usually selfish and like to be hidden in masks. toi know this story, “The Beauty and the Beast”, where the bad guy becomes good and sacrifises everything for his beloved one. I am on the other side: instead of being nice to her, I told our story to the whole Europe!
Q: Have toi spoke with her since toi broke up?
A: No, I told her everything I had to say with this song.
Q: Where toi annoyed to see the photos of toi two together leaked to the Internet?
A: No. We had shot many photos during our affair. I wasn’t disturbed, I know how she looks! She is a violinist too, but she plays in night clubs. I wish her all the best. But I disagree with her decision to sell our photos. But of course, my decision to make our common story a song wasn’t too kind either.
Q: Have toi ever been in Greece?
A: Yes, I come all the time for vacations. I have visited Athens, Kos and Crete. In the suivant time I’ll bring the dancers and the band and we will do a concert, I hope toi will like it.
Q: I didn’t know toi like our country!
A: Greece is a very populaire vacations destination in Norway. If I had plus leisure time, I would spend it there. But at this moment I have to focus on Scandinavia and Russia, because that’s my base. But Greece is the most beautiful country.
Q: Have toi ever spoken to Sakis Rouvas?
A: Yes, I like him, it’s remarkable how he stays a étoile, star for so long.

5000 letters i keep in my bedroom,
5000 people who open their hearts
Once they were strangers, today we are family,
mountains won't keep us apart.
There is a girl who has drawn me a sunrise,
thats how she wants every morning to be
And boy Lost hist tooth and he wants me to have these
how did this happen to me?
I want to know all their faces,
and I want to be there when they need a friend
5000 letters they wrote me,
and some jour I'll read them again.
5000 stories i keep in my bedroom,
5000 secrets i keep in my mind
I have been donné a piece of their lifetime,
friendship is easy to find.

Foolin' lyrics
Nobody knows the way I’m feelin’
I try to scream instead I smile
The world is strange
I must be dreamin’
How can I stop this just for a while
The morning rain will soon be falling
But I don’t care ‘cause I’ve already cried
Can’t see the meaning of this
But one thing’s certain
I’m afraid I’m loosin’ my mind
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But still I l’amour her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
The sky is blue and birds are singing
The sun does shine
And kids are playing game
What have I done
What was I thinking
The only thing to do is hiding shame
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But still I l’amour her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But I still need her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
I was foolin’ myself
Nobody knows the way I’m feelin’
I try to scream instead I smile
The world is strange
I must be dreamin’
How can I stop this just for a while
The morning rain will soon be falling
But I don’t care ‘cause I’ve already cried
Can’t see the meaning of this
But one thing’s certain
I’m afraid I’m loosin’ my mind
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But still I l’amour her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
The sky is blue and birds are singing
The sun does shine
And kids are playing game
What have I done
What was I thinking
The only thing to do is hiding shame
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But still I l’amour her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
Somebody else will be her boyfriend
Somebody else will have her heart
But I still need her so
How could I let her go
I was foolin’ myself
I was foolin’ myself
