Bill's voice disturbs me big time >.<;

I came from Germany and I like them very much ^^
Love the Songs ^^

With Tokiohotel is it the thing the one side loves them and the other side hates them...
but I hope that after the Mtv Europe Awards more people like them and not only in Europe ^^

Jesus! Please don't EVER again compare JaeJoong with Bill! *is getting sick* (no offense but I TOTALLY don't like that comparison! =____= I mean...NO! *pulls hair and runs off* ~(>_>))

--------

I personally don't like (unsympathetic to me) those two brothers...maybe it's their attitude or whatever. I mean, I can bear with the drummer or the bassist but those two...no! *shakes head*
(I guess their music isn't bad but I don't listen to it...especially not to their english stuff. I once heard some parts of "Through the monsun" and...I don't want to hear them singing english again. It's not that it's bad (some accent is normal) but...I don't like it.
Also, I totally don't buy their story about "No, we never ever had ANY influence from japanese styling..." I mean, why the hell did they name themselves after a japanese City? But I guess I should stop here since I dunno that much about them...)

On the other hand I also don't understand those Anti-fans....(and ppl who where like a 'die-hard' fan and suddenly turn into a 'die-hard' hater (probably just because her friends don't like TH)....

@collectyea: Where do you live? Living in germany one can't not recognize them. ^^° But yeah, a LOT teenage girls...^^°

Ahh so its a TB band mellow.gif ph34r.gif

They tell that they choose the name because their living often in Hotels and they want a name of a big city like tokyo.They wish to make a concert there one time...but the showcase in japan on the 26th is cancelled don´t know why...

Do you hear the German version too? I think its much better ^^ but it´s Ok that you don´t like them ^^
Gullwings
I don't like TH =0=; too many fans dry.gif it's annoying... and bill looks like a girl hahas nja but I like some songs...
Rhapsodyy
Haha I actually like Tokio Hotel. I think their music is good *shrugs*, and I enjoy their english songs too. I prefer the German versions, but the english is okay too. I can understand why a lot of people might not like them, but everyone has their own opinions. Personally I cannot really see WHY they're a teeny-bopper type band.. because none of them really have the "look" of people who would be in a band like that [except Bill haha], but whatever. I just like the music, and that's it. Don't really follow the band other than listening to them.

@Maru_chan-

I'd never heard that before. They said they had no influence by japanese styled music? Wasn't Bill a fan of Miyavi though o__o I'd read that somewhere.. and.. Miyavi... jrock singer.. sooo? haha
Addy
*Random part* I think this thread was for fans of TH. So big time haters are not needed her. Opinion are fine though. Keep it contained though.

*TH part* FINALLY!! Someone makes a thread! I reallly, really, like Tokio Hotel. I love how they're all really close especially the twins. Just adorable. Their music is really good too.

I gotta give them props for branching out. Usually German bands stay in Germany and don't really get to branch out in other countries but they have broken that wall!!

Now if they came to N. America I would be exstatic!!

I think Bill said that he was influenced my Miyavi. And they called themselves "Tokio Hotel" 'cause they wanna go to Tokyo or like the diversity or something and hotel because of they've been to many hotels.
ilikepho
i like a few of their songs hahaha smile.gif
mauni
Bill never said that he like Miyavi he never said he was a fan...
this rumour come up because of his first Hairstyle...(the hater and lot of j-rock fans said he wanted to be like him and he hold the micophone like Kyo from Dir eg Grey etc.) but nobody really know...some Hairdresser in Germany said that bill wanted his hairstyle as he see him but I don´t really think it´s true...nobody know ^^
ladykaoz
Mmmh they're quite indifferent to me but seriously,
I'm loving Bill's french -ç-

It's the same there (Italy) there are plots of young girl screaming and screaming for them °-° dk
Btw, Jaejoong is the only girl ever <3 he's a waaaay much pretty than Bill
shubr0om

evilsakura
I don't like this band, but I like some songs...sounds cool ^___^
LastRain
about everywhere I go, there's always someone saying Bill ripped off his style from Miyavi. I did some research on TH, and even on their biography, there's a comment about "Bill copied his style from Miyavi."
I'm not saying anything, just wondering.
nickynisa

Neus
I remember the first I saw info of them on a magazine the name made me laught, I thought, oh another japanese crazy fans' band lol. And I think I never made the mistake of thinking bout any japanese male was a female, but I really thought Tom was a girl XD
I only watched one pv long time ago on youtube but i really didnt care much so I forgot bout them, must search again maybe :3
Lindoodoo
I keep seeing their name everywhere! I swear I thought Tokio Hotel was a song.
But yeah, I like two songs of theirs; Through the Monsoon and Reden (Unplugged).
The guitarist has a freakin adorable face. ^^ (Even though he's the singer's twin ;x)
_ambrosia

sugar_wings
I think they're a good band, and I enjoy their music. I prefer the German songs, but some of the English songs are pretty good too.

Unfortunately, I am like the only person who likes them (that I have found in my town) but I have gotten several of my friends into it...
DAJUNG.
OMG! I'm watching them on Much On Demand right now ;P! Hahaha Leah and Matte are teaching them bad phrases in English xD Well...they're teaching Bill and Tom, since the other members are no where to be seen. O_O;;
Oh wait they suddenly appeared for the performance!! Omg that's a pretty awesome performance! ;D
_ambrosia

I went down there when they were on MOD. I was one of the many screaming girl fans outside waiting in the cold for an autograph.. ph34r.gif And I got it too. XD I'm just upset that I didn't get to see them perform on Sunday. Sold out show. Can't believe it.
DAJUNG.
^ OMG NO WAY!! D: You're sooo unbelievably lucky! I can't believe you stood out in the cold so long, I remember that day being like cold as hell! ;O YOU GOT THE AUTOGRAPH?!! OMG!! *jealous*
ciarain
Can't believe that Bill is only 19 . He's younger than me OMG but I swear I look younger than him ! Lol too much make-up . Anyway , I like his voice and Monsoon .

I waited out there for an hour and 45 minutes. Yes, it was freezing outside. I couldn't feel my feet and hands after it all. After the show was done, their security guard came out and said they would come out and sign autographs if we were calm. All the girls went crazy when they came out. ph34r.gif It was insane. I got everyone's autograph but Gustav's [the drummer] ._____. Didn't come down to my side, when I tried looking for him [with screaming, insane fan girls running every which way], they went back inside. It was getting a bit out of control and it was cold. mellow.gif


Since it's Valentine's Day, I thought people would enjoy this:

QUOTE
Tokio Hotel's plans for Valentine's Day

Buzznet: Any specific plans for Valentine's Day this year? If so who are you spending it with and where?

Gustav: I wish I had plans! Unfortunately, our vacation ended in mid January so that’s it for our spare time. On Valentine's day we’ll be in the middle of our North American club tour, which we are really looking forward to.

Buzznet: If you were to stay at home this Valentine's Day and watch a movie with a loved one, what movie would you watch and why?

Bill: First, I would get some Iced Tea ready, make Popcorn and get lots of candy. Then I would grab a big blanket and get in close with my girl. Unlike Tom I would probably rent a stack of love stories...whatever she likes. Luckily I am a person who enjoys movies that most girls usually favour. Don’t get me wrong, I also like to watch horror movies on occasion but that’s reserved for the time when I am on tour with the other guys.

Buzznet: Have you ever received a love letter from someone or have you ever written a love letter to someone? If so who was it from or to and what did you or that person say?

Tom: I receive tons of love letters and Valentine's Cards – which unfortunately never happens to the other three guys. (He laughs) Bill, Georg & Gustav have to send cards like that to themselves. Seriously, on occasions like Valentine's Day, we all receive very special mail. Beautiful pieces of fan made art, stuffed animals and a lot of other great presents where fans clearly put a lot of effort in. It looks like our fans really take the time to think about what to send us…come to think of it: many days of the year feel like Valentine's Day to me :-)

Buzznet: Are you going to tell someone in particular you love them this Valentines Day? If so who is it and what makes this person deserve your love?

Tom: Well, the long list of phone numbers in my cell phone consists of 90% females – so you shouldn’t ask me “if” but rather “how many” girls I will tell that I love (laughs). I also know who Georg will tell that he loves – his reflection in the mirror. To be honest, all of us are single at the moment so there are no girlfriends that we will be sending a love message to (but if I want to, I have the option to use the enormous contact list in my cell ;-)

Buzznet: What do you do when trying to set the mood for a romantic date? What does the date consist of, where does it take place, what do you wear, cook, listen too, go?

Georg: I would just try to be who I am and not put on any fancy cloths to impress the girl. I mean obviously I am very happy if a girl dresses up for me but I also don’t want her to pretend to be someone she’s not.
To create a romantic mood, I would take her out to a beautiful restaurant. Well, now that I think about it, I would probably prepare a meal myself – that’s more intimate. It might taste better in a restaurant but my pasta is definitely also worth a try!
