:)a big H E L L O for the first time. I am the (a) new one!
So what would I say when I suddenly meet her?
I think it is a very difficult question because it´s a very strange situation, too. to talk to somebody fort he very first time. particular if it is a well known person that I like.
I imagine I see her coming my way or something and I´m sure my brain starts to open the wells of knowledge about her (or better what I believe to know) in a second and she look at me (if ever) and she don`t know nothing about me. that would restrain me so much.
Now more than twenty years ago in May 1989 she gave a concert in Germany (Düsseldorf).
It was spring and it was the spring of her career, too. After the show me and a few other people tried to get an autograph of her. Before it was my turn I tried to stay relaxed and I thought about some questions to ask. But I couldn`t calm down and I couldn`t took my eyes of her. I was so nervous that I wasn`t able to speak.
As an just eighteen year old boy, shy and a little bit in love with her, to see this extraordinary beauty that she was - and still is…..
So when it was my turn, I just gave her my copy of ANCIENT HEART and she wrote: ALL THE BEST! TANITA on it, smiled shy and gave it back to me. I wished the moment would last forever but I had my record back smiled shy to her and knew I had to go.
That´s long ago and it was after a concert where you have the `rights` to talk or ask a little bit.
In private I think it would be harder to me even now I´m old.
So that was my first post. A little bit long I think, but this thread brought back these old memories (as if I ever would forget this spezial moment of my life).
Greetings from germany
