Olga, thank you so much for sharing your link! We do catch bits and pieces and the interview sounds different than the usual questions we get. Would yu be able to translate at least some of it for those of us who don't speak Russian? :D Olga, anytime you have MB related items like articles we can translate or radio or TV interviews, feel free to post them on here. This is very much appreciated sweetie, thanks again so much! Take care Olga and have a great day! Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie from Canada
Sylvie, In this interview (November 2011) with Michael asked: about his Russian ancestors,about his knowledge of Russian words (Michael knows in Russian the word "thank you"-spasibo-спасибо:))),about his impressions of Moscow (Michael impressed with our Russian progress in the last 20 years.Michael was in Russia in 1986 and saw a huge contrast between the Russia of 2011 and 1986),about his plans for future concerts in Russia (Michael promises to visit the next time, along with a symphony orchestra).Michael said that only the Russian people have a hidden fire, this is no more, no one(oh yeah .. so to mock his country and his people can only Russian people:(((survive all .. we are strong! ).Michael really like the Russian public: ".. for me the Russian public is almost like family....it's weird .. like a relationship with a very distant relatives....is a relationship built into the DNA.".
Good interview!Michael flattered Russian public ..:)))))
Here is a link to an article in the newspaper "Труд",November 21, 2011.Readers ask questions through the newspaper.

My English is unlikely to translate this text is well :)))))
Well spasibo for that Olga! lol I appreciate the translation of the interview. :D Don't worry about the article though: someone did bring it over and had translated it a while back: it was a very interesting exchange too, very different than the questions we North-Americans are used to. Spasibo again Olga, take care. Hugs, sincerely, Sylvie from Canada :D
P.S.: Funny how this is the second time this year we hear of Michael doing symphonic concerts, I wonder if he has more plans to that effect...
Sylvie

Yes Olga Michael's Mother's maiden name is Gubin and I believe it was his maternal Grandmother who came from Leeds in the UK with his maternal Grandfather having his roots in Russia along with his paternal Grandparents having their roots in Russia too !! :) If I am wrong please, anyone, correct !! :)

I think more importantly, that grandparents, mom and dad Michael met and fell in love and gave the world a wonderful person and a great voice-Michael Bolton :-))))
Apropos, my son, also named Michael (Михаил).:))
Indeed Olga for as Michael has said himself, the wonderful DNA his mother gave him and that he shares it with us !! :)

Come on baby girl: no shopping, one size fits all and memories of a lifetime! lol Now what day of the week does this concert take place? Won't you guys be due for a vacation by then so you can take a couple of days off and get there slowly? Grasping at straws much? lol Think about it girl: you have 6 months to plan!
