The words sound grand, but they are fitting: Karel Gott is one of the few global stars that Europe has to offer, and this has been the case for almost 50 years. As early as the late 1960s, he was the first Eastern European artist to perform sold-out shows in Las Vegas and was considered a legitimate successor to Frank Sinatra. Since then, he has been one of the superstars of the music scene in Germany, his native Czech Republic, and the countries of the former Eastern Bloc. In this autobiography, he now shares for the first time about his childhood, his first steps in show business, his great successes, life before and behind the Iron Curtain, and the transformative period after the end of communism. And of course, he talks about his years as a megastar, from "Maya the Bee" to "Babicka" and "Forever Young," the duet with Bushido. Karel Gott is one of the greats of the music industry, and with this autobiography, he presents an impressive work.
