Between "Take 1" to the recording of his second part "Take 2", Hfive found time for an open conversation with Rosh 1. All the truth about Michael's split, the fans, the future plans, how many times in a week they're using deodorant and EXLUSIVE about the blue eyes...

Hfive is maybe the most successfull boys group in Israel, but also a successfull financial business. Besides the four boys who are also assoiciate in the prograss of the writing, the producing, the dance, the music and marketing. Everybody are thinking everyday how to make Hfive more popular.

Tired from the exhausting publicity tour and from hard work on Take 1, which came out early July, and on Take 2, which the work on it just recently finished.. Amir F Gutman, Idan Yaskin, Eyal Dasaao and Eyal Shahar went to a short vacation over board, each one seperately and promised to be back soon. "We're trying to get a vacation from each other once in a while so we can miss each other and come back", Eyal says. "But still we arrange mettings between us in places around the world", Amir add.

It almost a year since Michael left, he prefer going back home to the states. Today it's easier to talk about it.

Maybe you can tell us now why Michael really left?

Eyal: "We said a million of times and no one believed us. Michael was a stranger in the country he had enough leaving here. He left cause he wanted to and that's that".

Amir: "From the begining he didn't know if he wasnted to stay for years. He didn't wanted to leave us in the middle. We convinced him to stay and be apart of the band and that's how you got to know him".

The fourth says they're now much stronger and tighter and calmer when they turned four. Instead of Shai Lahav, the producer of the previous albums, replace Oved Efrat, an old proffessional man who work in the Israeli's pop and rock business. 10 years ago he produced another famoous boys band "Noar Shulaim".

Eyal: "Oved changed the vocals and the parts between us. He gave us opertunities to try new things".

Shahar: "He was like our boss. Because he's much older than us and was a fighter in the army, so every time he came into the room we stood. We need the authority, someone who'll tell us what to do".

The second part of the album will call "Take 2", and we'll get exactly to the place saved to him in the first part "Take 1" and sell in a cheap price of 35 shekels. There'll be 5 new songs, two remixes and a few surprises who saved as a secret until it'll come out. "Because the prices of the CDs are really high, people buy fake CDs", Idan says, "That's why it's much easier to buy two parts seperate, cause there's time to save money to buy it in between.."

Talking about saving money, be a hfive fan is expensive. Two CDs (which are really one) will cost 70 shekels, the fanclub is 60 shekels for 3 months, for a concert tickets you'll pay 80 shekels (55 shekels after a discount you'll fine in the original CD of "Take 1"). An avarage fan won't be satisfied with only see them one time and won't miss magazines they're in, tv shows, and other appearanes...

It's really expensie be a hfive fan...

Idan: "Everything expensive this day. If you'll be a fan of a basketball or anything else, it'll be expensive. If you'll go to a shop it'll be expensive, there's nothing you can do about it..."

Eyal: "That's how the fans knows everything before everyone else does".

If someone wants to know before everbody else, even without be a member on the fanclub, can go to the official website(GIVE ME THE URL AND I'LL GO... N/B). "What's special about it", Idan says, "You can see verything in it but you can't download from it".

One of the bonus that added to Take 1 was the videoclip for the song "keep on moving"' that was shoot in a studio, in the middle was a ping pong table with the guys playing in between breaks.

Shahar: "I'm the best playing ping pong. One time Amir won. I'm very modest".

Amir: "It took us two years to get Idan into the football thing. Now ping pong is the next project".

After they'll get back from the vacation, a new tour is coming which will include a new dances. The playbacks will change and the clothes and even "band members" Shahar's laughs. "A new band who sings our songs".

Amir: "Sometimes we send them to places and nobody notice".

Don't you want to grow up, go to an older audience?

Shahar: "No. We're going to everyone".

Eyal: "We understand that people in our age has a problem loving hfive because it's not cool."

Shahar: "I wouldn't go to a concert with 4,000 screaming girls cause i know i wouldn't hear anything and enjoy and came home really disappointed."

Eyal: "There are a lot of older people who listened in the radio of "Standing on a cliff" and liked it. We are hoping they'll ignore the stigma and buy the CD".

Amir: "Suppose someone 25 go and buy the CD. If his friends will see it they'll think he's crazy".

Eyal: "The Beatles started as a band of teenage and move to older audience".

So what do you do?

Eyal: "Nothing. We have patient and we give the time to do his."

Amir: "We're not taking chances, we're doing the music that we love, that's what important".

On the CD cover the boys are in a sky background, where their blue eyes showed. One look into their eyes and what do you know, they're brown!

Amir, Shahar, can it be?

Shahar: "I was just looking at the see and it reflected me".

Amir: "I saw "blue movies" (*DIRTY MOVIES* N/B) all night before we went to the shoots".

Shahar: "Just kidding. They told us to put contact lenses so we did".

Besaides singing and dancing, the guys also in commercials.

Eyal: "We advertise a new medical thing.. it's actually tabloid that you use once a week instead of deodorant and it melt when it touches the body".

How often do you use deodorant?(male perfume)

Idan: "Depends"...

Shahar: "Everyday, every hour!"

Eyal: "It's hot here. We use it all the time".

Between a show to commercial, they're continue to move apartments twice a year because of the fans. They're saying that the only place they're not aloud to get into is the mall and couning the days until the kids will go back to school. The can sleep until late though.

What haven't you done in a long time?

Amir: "I haven't been to a movie in ages.."

Eyal: "I haven' been to a mall for years.."

Idan: "Maybe we can open Hfive mall. That way we can go there every time we want".

Amir: "A mall maybe not. But a cafe, now that all of us might open".

Eyal: "What we all share is the love for food".

Eyal Dasao is the only married member from the fourth guys. To Shahar has a longtime girlfriend. Idan and Amir are still butterflies.... The idea of a marriage are only in their minds as fun to think about thing..

Idan: "Could be tha tin the sylvester all three of us will get married. The one who won't find a bride until the end of the decade, will have to mary Syvan, our male producer!"

(Any volunteers to marry Amir or Idan? N/B).
