WIGWAM – The Norwegian Eurovision Song Contest Winner 2005 – will be remembered as the glamrock band who redefined Euro song under the motto "Rock is the new släger!". Setting Norway on fire with their spectacular performance in the Norwegian final, is on everyone’s lips in the land of ice and snow. WIGWAM’s Eurovision RockSong In My Dreams has nailed its way through the hearts and souls of both youngsters and rock’n rollers as well as the common Norwegian people.

Norway’s hardest working live band has struggled their way to the top of the charts, constantly touring in every corner of the land. The four band members Teeny (guitar), Glam (vocals), Sporty (drums) and Flash (bass) persued individual musical careers with bands such as Dream Police, Artch, Sha-Boom, Ole Evenrude, Alien and solo projects during the 80’s and the 90’s. But in February 2001 the four glamrockers agreed on doing weekly jam sessions in rock city Haldens sleaziest clubs, which lead the way to a powerful comeback February 24 at Haldens most popular rock joint, Hannestad Gaarden. From there the wheels of rock’n roll were on fire, and the growing belief within the band and their fast growing fan squad made WIGWAM record their first demo of brand new Rock Anthems, just to be turned down by a disbelieving Norwegian rock industry. Despite their growing popularity no record deals were secured ‘til 2004, when the band made it to the Norwegian Eurovision final with Crazy Things. WIGWAM signed a license deal with new label Global Music, and made plans for the release of what was to become 667 …The Neighbour Of The Beast.

WIGWAM shocked the Norwegian people with an outrageous live presentation of the song, and made a surprising # 3. Two days later the album 667... was released, and a successful tour, 667 Tour, were lined up during the spring and the summer of 2004. Despite the lack of promotional backup from Global Music, the album managed to sell a decent amount of copies, and even sold outside Norway through AOR Heaven in Germany.

WIGWAM later parted ways with Global Music and signed with Norways biggest independent label VME/Voices Music after recording a brand new version of the Kiss classic I Was Made For Loving You for their forthcoming Kiss tribute album. WIGWAM recorded the song with Bruce Kulick (former Kiss guitar player) in collaboration with Kiss Army Norway. VME later re-released the 667... album with new title Hard To Be A Rock’n Roller, taken from the track Hard To Be A Rock’n Roller which also was released as a single and music video. The music video was later banned from Norwegian broadcasting due to light nudity scenes.

Suprisingly Norwegian broadcasting was soon to invite the band to participate in the Norwegian Eurovision final 2005, which WIGWAM gladly accepted. Knowing this is the biggest Music Festival in the country, and the only festival to be broadcasted live on Norwegian television. Being in the middle of recordings for their forthcoming album through VME, WIGWAM was given the opportunity to pick any song, and chose In My Dreams. Blasting out the high adrenaline rock anthem in the final, wearing their signature WIGWAM outfits, WIGWAM rocked the nation once and for all.In My Dreams went straight to the top of the charts, and the European version of WIGWAM's album is now to be released with In My Dreams included as opening track. The album is titled Hard To Be A Rock’n Roller.. In Kiev!, and marks a new era for the glam rockers. WIGWAM is already breaking out on their Rock Schläger Tour which will take the band all the way to Ukraine.

KEEP ROCKING IN THE FREE WORLD ! ROCK IS BACK !

:clap: :clap: :clap:

They keep the KISS spirit alive!

Gefallen mir echt sehr gut, bin schwer am überlegen ob ich mir nicht auch ein CD seit Jahren kaufen soll... Verdient hätten sie es sich auf alle Fälle. Mal schauen, vielleicht gibt's bei Amazon irgendein günstiges DVD Angebot wo ich dann eine CD mitbestellen kann. :D

Bisher gefallen mir diese Tracks am besten:

Turn To You

In My Dreams

Bless The Night

No More Living On Lies

The Best Song In The World

The Drop

Bei Tell Me Where To Go und A long way haben sie wohl etwas zu tief ins Milch-Glaserl geschaut. :wos?: Aber gut, jede Band braucht solche Aussetzer. :D

In My Dreams

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

Over me

I don't know if this is what it seems

Is it real or just a fantasy

Aim to please is all you ever do

Making all my fairytales come true

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

Scared of waking up and you'll be gone

Face the truth and now be all alone

Baby, let's get into the groove

Show me all your dirty moves

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

In my dreams

If this ain't real don't wake me up

I don't ever wanna stop

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

Come on, come on, come on

Love is all over me (whoa)

You are the only one

Living in a fantasy

In my dreams

Hard To Be A Rock 'n' Roller

Chicks, fix, superhits, jewelery for breakfast

At a milliondollar suite at the Hilton Hotel

I've got tweny playmates knocking

At the door in hot stockings each day, oh yeah

Cuz I'm the King of metal, God of pop, the rock 'n' roll Messiah

Wasting twenty four hours a day, every night

I'm a sell out sensation

with a nasty reputation

Oh yeah, oh yeah..!

You say, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll God

In a world of pleasure

Jackass, I'll get you soon

Yeah yeah, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll star

When the world gets crazy

Baby, so do you, whoo

I have a private plane taking me from L.A. to Bahamas

Making records on the beach that sound like shit, but still sell

And Shakira's the producer

Her hips makes me ... wanna play

I'm doing lip-sync TV shows, Playing live's outdated

Man, I hate it, did a tour way back in 82.

Since I got blessed with success

My fans just have to pay-per-view

And they do and who's the fool

You say, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll God

In a world of pleasure

Jackass, I'll get you soon

Yeah yeah, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll star

When the world gets crazy

Baby, so do you, whoo

Try being a rock 'n' roll God

Cash, cash up my ass

Want you be my pay-pal trash

Got everything you need

to make me filthy rich indeed

I got a world of inspiration

For fun and penetration

Don't let them know my music sucks

You say, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll God

In a world of pleasure

Jackass, I'll get you soon

Yeah yeah, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll star

When the world gets crazy

Baby, so do you, whoo

You say, hey, it's hard to be a rock 'n' roller

Try being a rock 'n' roll God

In a world of pleasure

Jackass, I'll get you soon

Hey!

Crazy Things

You jump out from the rooftop

Just to make her look your way

Tattoo her name on your chin

To make her remember your face

And you put her house on fire

So you can save her from the flames

There is nothing on earth that can keep you from her

No matter what it takes

The harder the crush

The higher the cost

Oh my

Those crazy things we do for love

You run out on the highway

To get hit by her red jeep

Making sure you'll get

A better change to meet

Oh, and you don't care if it kills you

When the last thing you'll see is her face

Might be the closest you'll get but don't you forget

Love don't come with brakes

The harder the crush

The higher the cost

Oh my

Those crazy things we do for love

The harder the crush

The higher the cost

Oh my

Those crazy things we do for love

The harder the crush

The higher the cost

Oh my

Those crazy things we do for love

The harder the crush

The higher the cost

Oh my

Those crazy things we do for love

Those crazy things we do for love

Crazy

The Best Song In The World

Going down to the studio to make a record that would beat them all

Then it turned out that we were one hit short

Ah, we went jamming 'till the break of dawn, oh

Ah, when we were done the producer called to listen

You've made the one, the number one

The best I've ever heard

You made the one, the golden one

(She called it the) best song in the world

And so we did and baby here we are

Sure feels great to hear you sing along

Thinking back I recognize your face

From the very night we wrote this song

Ah, dancing in a rehearsal room, oh

Ah, your body told me that you loved the tune

You said; "Listen!"

You've made the one, the number one

The best I've ever heard

You made the one, the golden one

(She called it the) best song in the world

Here we go

[spoken]

Are you ready to be Wig Wammed?

You've made the one, the number one

The best I've ever heard

You made the one, the golden one

(She called it the) best song in the world

You've made the one, the number one

The best I've ever heard

You made the one, the golden one

(She called it the) best song in the world

Out Of Time

They say a man is dead

I've shot him in the head

And now my life is in their hands

I say 'I'm innocent'

But they don't understand

And now they sentence me to death

It's all over when the hangmen roll the dice

All over in a minute of my life

I'll remember you

When my days are through.

I am running out of time

Now the day has come

And I'm on my own

There is nowhere I can hide

I'm out of time

Your touch and sweet embrace

Always bring me grace

I'll never see your face again

I wish that you were here

To make it disappear

Can't hide my hands in the sand

It's all over when the hangmen roll the dice

All over in a minute of my life

I'll remember you

When my days are through.

I am running out of time

Now the day has come

And I'm on my own

There is nowhere I can hide

I'm out of time

It's all over when the hangmen roll the dice

All over in a minute of my life

I'll remember you

When my days are through

I am running out of time

Now the day has come

And I'm on my own

There is nowhere I can hide

I'm out of time

Running out of time

Nowhere I can hide

I'm out of time

I Turn To You

When the world is darker than I can understand

When nothing turns out the way I've planned

When the sky turns grey and there's no end inside

When I can't sleep through the lonely night

I turn to you, like a flower leaning towards the sun

I turn to you, 'cause you're the only one

Who can turn me around

When I'm upside down

I turn to you

When my insides are racked with anxiety

You have the touch that will quiet me

You lift my spirit, you melt the ice

When I need inspiration, when I need advice

I turn to you, like a flower leaning towards the sun

I turn to you 'cause you're the only one

Who can turn me around

When I'm upside down

I turn to you

Where would I be, what would I do

If you never helped me through

I hope someday, if you lost your way

You can turn to me, like I turn to you

I turn to you, like a flower leaning towards the sun

I turn to you, 'cause you're the only one

Who can turn me around

When I'm upside down

I turn to you

I turn to you, when fear tells me to turn around

I turn to you, 'cause you're the only one

Who can turn me around

When I'm upside down

I turn to you

I turn to you
