Aurelia
I try and tell you something about Yusuf's interviews on the radio.
Basically Yusuf spoke about the religion of Islam.
Nikki was asking him questions about religion.
She asked Yusuf what made him come back and make records and tour again?
He said that, looking at things he has done and things he has not done and wanted to do before he passed away.
Also he wanted to reconnect with the spirit of people that he wrote, and sang for again as when he walked away it left a big question mark.
He spoke about his musical and about his next few tour days.
He mentioned briefly Dublin and said that a few people had one to many (means drunk) and people were not informed very well and that is all going to change for the next concerts.
He did also say that people do not read the small print.
He was asked how much of the Greek boy was still in him?
He then mentioned that his father was Greek Cypriot and use to take him to weddings were there was always alot of music.
Hope this helps

Helen thanks for the interview rundown.   I also noticed your new avatar pic. Am I seeing things,  or is that one of those new 'Wanted Bags' hanging inside your home. I can just see you shopping around London with that Bag on your arm. This will really be a show stopper, and help promote Yusuf |

Thanks, Sue! Great interview - I just love how at-ease he sounded and once again, how gracious he was about Dublin. I am with Regii - whether the Moonshadow preview is in the middle or the beginning, I am excited to see it all.

The big bit of news to come out this interview is that Yusuf is going to write an auto-biography!!!! I can't wait to read it!

ooh, THAT's good news, Paulo. A long time coming. I have a theory -- that the quicker people are to put out their memoirs, the less interesting and worthy they are. It's incredible how many ego-bloated idiots put out autobiographies. And before they've even passed middle age! This one should be worth the wait. |
