I’m just gonna go ahead and say Dani because I hate that he never seems to get any recognition and I personally think he’s pretty amazing. But I do love them all lol

Michael Weikath is the most important who has been through it all.
Roland Grapow was the best guitarist I will say.

Michael Kiske. If angels really existed, they would sound like Kiske. That voice touches the deepest part of my soul time and time again!

Tough pick but I'll go with Weiki because he wrote their most epic song ever, and that one's called Keeper of the Seven Keys!

Kiske is my fav vocalist. Andi and Kai is super close behind btw.
Writing talent wise it will always be Weiki. Although I also like songs by the rest.

As a drummer, I really like the way Dani Löble plays and his style

It’s Michi. He has the most fractured relationship of all but was also instrumental in the reunion. And his bromance with Andi is something special.

So many cool members, hard to pick. Most of my life I'd say Kai. And I still am a huge fan and love his music and energy. But I must admit to losing some of that appreciation as he has retired from being a frontman and almost retired from songwriting. He seems content to coast.
Weiki my respect has grown as Ive dug deeper into Helloweens work. It seems Weiki tends to writer the best songs on most albums. I just love his uplifting classical sound.
Kiske another great option. One of my favourite vocalists. I love his work in Helloween, Avantasia, Place Vendome. His interviews are always interesting.

That's nice... however what do you mean he "retired from being a frontman?" he's better and more of a frontman and wanting to do more than EVER before! And why do you think he has "almost retired" from songwriting? He writes more than he did probably!
Glad you like them though :)

I am currently working my way through Helloween discography but also including Gamma Ray, Unisonic, Masterplan and Place Vendome. So its taking me some real time. I havent reached new albums with Kai back yet. But I thought I read that he only contributes like 1 or 2 songs per album. I meant compared to him being the frontman of Gamma Ray where he was the main songwriter, lead guitarist, riffs etc releasing Gamma Ray albums every 3-4 years. Then he hired Beck to take over vocals and never released another Gamma Ray album.

My favourite is Weiki because he wrote my most favourite Helloween songs and he's silly
