@@leonarnubis Weiki didn't write Someone's Crying or Crazy Cat. Roland Grapow wrote both of those.
@@markobighead3173 ohhhh its the true , i wrong , well i change this 2 for first time and heavy metal hamster , thanks for tell me
@@leonarnubis heavy metal hamsters sucks and is no masterpiece, it wasn't even supposed to be on the album
@@Punttipate62 its tour opinión Is a good song from weiki , Is happy happy jajajaja
One of my favorite songs from this album! Nice to hear the background from Weiki himself!
Weiki has always been my guitar hero. And he always will be.
I love these signature Weiki melodies, which are instantly recognizable on the first listen.
Great song, Weiki!
I've been waiting for Weiki's Interview video💓
Thank you very much for this very nice interview❣️
Serious interview exactly lol
awesome song guys! keep up the good work, this is actually great
Robot King is one of my favourite songs from Helloween 2021 album. Great, interesting and mysterious song. Thank you, Michael.
I can’t understand why does he speak so humbly about one of the best songs in the post 94 Helloween era, alongside with “Kings will be kings”, “Pant a new world” and “Burning sun”
Epic start with even more epic build up in the bridge, afterwards- even more epic build up in the pre-chorus, and you are already anxious because of this massacre of a song , and then - the genial simplicity of the mighty punchy payoff in the actual chorus: “Robot king !! Perfect make !!…”
This entire new album, as I have always said, is an all killer-no filler deal, but to me, at least, the highlights are definitely Weikath’s songs. To the point of which I find myself unable to appreciate “Skyfall” for what it is because I am already beaten down by “Robot King” and “Down in the dumps”. Exactly the way how I feel with the Keeper pt2 - I have to take a break before the grand finale of the title track, because “March of time” had already drained me and I need a rest.
Cheers to Helloween for having recorded the album of their career! Can’t wait to see you again in Bulgaria 🇧🇬
In my opinion weiki writes the best songs for Helloween.
Mí 3 favorite outt for the glory , skyfall AND robot king
Всем фанам Helloween привет из России !👍👍👍🤘
In the beginning, Weiki was told, his cheesy tune weren't real metal.
Now, a whole metal genre tries to copy his tunes.
Wie sich die Zeiten ändern .🤘🎸
He's a great songwriter. He should do what he does and ignore all the critics trying to normalize him. There's plenty of conventional metal, but there's only one Weiki.
Awesome story!
Me encanta su acento 🇩🇪😏😍
Woohhhoooo...asooyyy euyy ❤
Selalu keren karya-karya mr Weiki 🤟🤟
This video is lacking an ashtray :D
Love the track and solos there. Great stuff, like The Saints.
I love Robot King.
Seit 1985 verfolge , ich euch (dich) .
Weiter SO🤘🎃🎸🥁
Ihr habt mir viel gegeben .
Stay METAL 🤘👌👍
I wonder when Weiki would be in a video!
Vocês são incríveis ❤️🇧🇷
I really would like to see Andy sings this one live!!💪😡♥️
Melodies he wrote opened new metal door
Hola helloween con mi papa vemos mucho tus videos saludos desde chile
I want to hear the original version where he talked about living forever. Raw, unpolished songs can be good too! Of course I also love "Robot King" the way it is and all of his contributions to this album. It's one of their best!
This song got super overlooked by reviewers. Probably because the album is pretty long and Skyfall sort of steals the spotlight for epic story songs. I think this one really shines on its own though if people would just listen to it isolated from everything else. Definitely a highlight of the new album for me.
That and because out of the three songs Weiki wrote for the album, it's probably the weakest. It's not bad, or even weak at all, but I think the other two are simply stronger songs and have more elements of classic Helloween that people were expecting for this album. Robot King is very much modern Helloween in sound, which makes sense given that it is a leftover track from My God-given Right. It's actually the origin of that album's cover.
@@markobighead3173 Well, opinions. :P
Personally, it's my favorite track on the album, beyond any of his other tracks. I'm actually glad it got the treatment it did sonically thanks to the addition of classic members and the recording/mixing/mastering process for this album. Not that MGGR sounded bad because it didn't, but it REALLY gets to shine thanks to being on this album. The performances of everyone here are awesome and probably elevate it beyond just what the songwriting itself would have made it
Of course that doesn't mean it'll be everyone's favorite. It's just mine.
Мы с тобой!!
Weiki is a Mastermind in Songwriting !🎃✨️
Все будет гуд !
zehr gut!
Please sing in LIVE tour.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Carry on...
If I was to call Mr. Weikath anything, it'd be "Happy darkling". Funny. Like Beetlejuice or the Addams Family kind of funny, you know? That's the way I hear it. Kind of like a smooth, calm Gomez Addams. (Yes, huge Addams Family fan here)
