As previously reported, HELLOWEEN's video for its new single, "Light the Universe", has been posted online at this location (Real Media). The cut is said to be the first-ever duet in the band's history, which also features an appearance by BLACKMORE'S NIGHT singer Candice Night. The clip was directed by Alexander Diezinger (NEGATIVE, L'AME IMMORTELLE, EXILIA) at Veldenstein Castle in southern Germany.

Due on November 13 via SPV Records (November 10 in Germany),this four-track single offers bonus material in the form of the "Light the Universe" video, the track "Revolution" (penned by bassist Markus Großkopf, recorded for Japan and previously unreleased in Europe),as well as an appetizer for the band's upcoming live album — a stage version of "If I Could Fly", recorded in Sao Paulo in March 2006.

Scheduled for release in February 2007, HELLOWEEN's new double live DVD and CD will be available in two versions (standard and limited edition),with tracks recorded in Sofia, Tokyo and Sao Paulo, among others. The group's world tour will reach its finale in Russia and Ukraine in October 2006, with the band concentrating next year on preparations for the follow-up to the "Keeper of the Seven Keys – The Legacy" album.

HELLOWEEN in August cancelled its previously scheduled North American tour due to "unforeseen logistical and organizational problems. . . Despite good advance ticket sales (where pre-sales already where available),North American organizers of the tour could not guarantee an economical and adequate routing of the tour," the group said in a statement. "Therefore a consequent cancellation two months before tour start seemed [to] the band management to be the fairest for fans and promoters at this point."

"Light the Universe" track listing:

01. Light the Universe (featuring Candice Night)
02. If I Could Fly (live from Sao Paulo)
03. Revolution (previously unreleased in Europe)
04. Light the Universe (video clip)
