Presented as an intimate duet by vocalists Andi Deris and Michael Kiske, 'Forever And One (Neverland)' not only marks the release of "Live At Budokan", but also serves as a fitting conclusion to the era of HELLOWEEN's self-titled No. 1 album. The song tells a poignant tale of unfulfilled love and has become an essential part of the band's setlist, creating a unique bond between musicians and fans like no other track in their repertoire. Its emotional intensity reaches new heights in live performances, where HELLOWEEN's rendition of 'Forever And One (Neverland)' promises to give everyone an unparalleled case of goosebumps.
"A beautiful ballad from the pen of Andi. When we sit at the front of the catwalk and I see the emotions on the faces of the audience, I get goosebumps every time. That alone makes it very emotional to sing this song over and over again," revels Michael.

There couldn’t be a more fitting theme for the current happenings in the pumpkin world than "Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery," taken from HELLOWEEN’s iconic recent hit single “Best Time”. The final curtain in support of "Helloween" may have fallen in Tokyo in 2023, but glimpses of the future are already emerging as 2025 approaches. While the band’s yet-untitled new album is taking shape day by day, fans can already look forward to autumn of next year. HELLOWEEN will return triumphantly to the stages of 19 cities to celebrate their 40th anniversary with European audiences, followed by additional tour legs in Asia, North & South America in 2026.
