Heino with 86: This is how the hit legend remains fit and lonely!

Kitzbühel, Österreich - One of the best-known personalities of the German music landscape celebrates his 86th birthday: Heino, who has been active as a hit legend in the industry for over 60 years, has inspired generations with its unique style and striking baritone voice. The artist has sold more than 50 million records and is therefore one of the most successful musicians in German -speaking countries. [Merkur] reports that Heino feels fit and vital despite his advanced age - doctors appreciate him physically at about 60 years.

But what is the secret of his durability? Heino himself reveals on Instagram that he carefully owned with his strength. "Long sleeping, little alcohol and regular health checks" are on his list of success factors. He consciously avoided alcohol and lavish parties to maintain his health. Of course, this leads to the fact that he not only acts physically, but also in his spirit younger as his age.

The loner of the music industry

Despite his success, Heino often prefers the loneliness of conviviality. Already ten years ago he said that he experienced a certain retreat as a "loner" in the music scene. He was never found at many parties and rushing festivals, which are part of everyday life for other artists. This led to the fact that he could hardly make any friendships in the industry. He perceived this retreat as a burden, since he was often not taken seriously and perceived as a "bitch bitch".

his musical career began in 1961 with a appearance at the OK Singers. From then on, Heino developed into an icon of the hit, with a discographic career, which includes hits like "Blue blooms the Enzian" and "Karamba, Karacho, a whiskey". [Wikipedia] mentions that he regularly appeared in television programs such as the ZDF hit parade and the "Musikantenstadl", which further increased his fame.

Schlager: A story full of passion

But what story is actually behind this music direction, which is so central to Heino? The hit has developed over more than a century and has its roots in the 19th century. Originally it was folk songs and operettas that laid the foundation for this catchy music. The heyday of the modern hit began in the 1920s, supported by the spread of radio and records. [hit fever] gives a detailed overview of this story and the important artists that shaped them.

The 1960s brought international fame for pop stars like Udo Jürgens, while the 1980s heralded a new flowering time again with 'modernized sounds'. In the current music world, hit artists like Helene Fischer also play a central role and use modern media to spread their music. This shows that the hit is not only a passion, but also a lively part of German -speaking culture.

In the middle of all these developments, Heino remains a unique figure that goes its own way. His life as a loner may be incomprehensible to many, but for him it is the price of the success he was allowed to enjoy in the music scene. He has still made up a lot for the coming years, and the fans can be excited to see which musical surprises of the hit star still have.
