greek: “all 3 of their alb-ms were in the top 10 in my country!”
american: “most fans are learning german because of them!”
german: “they are so hot! tokio hotel für immer!”
all: “ja!!”
are hot and absolutely nothing like my chemical romance. bill does not look like a girl. and the whole band do not wear make-up, only one of them does as every one with eyes can clearly see.
even if you don’t think they are absolutely irrisistably gorgeous, you can’t possibly say their songs aren’t good, they are.
and they aren’t emo, they don’t claim to be emo and no one else claims they are either.
if you hate them so much, why bother coming on here and defining them.
tokio hotel are the shizz. tom kaulitz is the s-x.
interational rock with insanely awesome hair and unique styles. the band includes, bill kaulitz lead singer and his twin brother tom kaulitz, the lead guitarist, gustav shafer as drummer and georg listing as basiest. the band founded in 2001 as the kaulitz twins were only 11 years old after a live show in their hometown, magdeburg germany when georg and gustav watched the kaulitzs perform on stage, although they knew each other from a music school that the kaulitzs parents owned. together they formed a band called, devilish and performed in small concerts. in 2003, bill kaulitz partic-p-ted in german star search, performing it’s raining men, as a 13 year old and lost in quarter final, but was discovered by a music producer by the name of peter hoffman. soon, the band changed their name from devilish, to tokio hotel. “tokio” because they loved toyko, j-pan. and “hotel”, because they seemed to always be in one. sony bmg took over the contract and hoffman hired david jost and pat jenzer as creators and authors and gave the band instruction on music playing and song writing. shortly before their first alb-m, song terminated their contract and universal music group took them under contract and now the band is the most well knowned act in 20 years.

tokio hotel also won an ema for best live act on november 1st 2007 and were also nominated best band. they performed monsoon at the event.

their first u.s single was t-tled “tokio hotel” was released and included “ready set go” and “scream” and avaible at hot topic stores. thier second u.s single was released on december 11th, 2007 (on my birthday!! i love you tokio hotel!!) and had the tracks “ready set go”, “scream” and a remix of “ready set go” by afi’s jade pudget. febuary 2008, the band toured north america for five dates starting in cananda and finishing in new york city. after appearing and performing on muchmusic and touring in cananda, “ready set go” got in the much on demand daily 10, a countdown of videos chosen by veiwers. it stood there for a week then returned to the top mod daily 10 on april 8, 2007. march 25th, 2008, scream was released in canada. now after bill’s healed throat, has begun touring north america again with new tour dates.

they also had the “1000 hotels tour”. a european tour which begun on march 3rd, 2008 in brussels and was scheduled to locations like the netherlands , luxemburg,france, germany, scandinnavia, portugal, italy and with an unexpected finish on april 8th, 2008. on march 14th, bil started having vocal problems during a concert in m-rs-ille, france. he let the audience sing more and instead of playing 21 songs they played 16 songs. bill apologized in german for his bad singing and explained that he was sick.

the band canceled a concert in lisbon, portugal minutes before the show started due to his sickness. the audience was dissappointed for some were camping outside the arena for two weeks, although to them bill’s voice is more important. the rest of the 1000 hotel tour was canceled and the north american tour right after an anoucement by the band’s manager in bild, that bill needed surgerey to remove a cyst in his vocal cords, which would risk his voice, his career and most importantly, dissappoint the fans of tokio hotel.

bill was putting a strain on his voice after playing 43 shows in the 1000 hotels tour without a break. he went through larnx surgerey on march 30th, 2008 to remove the cyst. after the surgerey, bill wasn’t able to speak for 10 days, and took 3 weeks to heal completely. if bill would of continued to sing without a break during the schueleled tour, his voice would of have been permenitly damaged. once a whole two weeks of silence for bill and two months of vocal rehabitlitation, tokio hotel started performing again in may , 2008.

now the band is famous throughout the world and has their own web show on youtube called “tokio hotel tv” which has gained them lots of popularity. they have also have new concerts planned for north america and have been on u.s television, like “late night with conan o brian, and on their release of their us alb-m “scream, on trl. they have also planned to be on trl for a total week starting august 4th, 2008 (cant wait!) and has gained popularity everywhere. still, they are barely legal and were able to take over the world with their music.

their u.s “scream” alb-m is avaible everywhere, but in best buy, hot topic, and itunes, have their special version. best buy has a dvd that comes with it. hot topic has the “raise your hands” track on it. and itunes has their single “black” on it.

my opinion

they are the best band to ever live!! for they are so young and barely legal, and mainly, “scandal-free” and they took over the world!

my opinion

this is the best band ever!!

some of this information came off of wikipedia and myself =]
“hey ricky! i just bought the tokio hotel c.d at hot topic! ”

“me too! the lead singer is a hot!”

“um ricky…since when were you gay?”

“huh?”

“lead singer is a dude”

“darn it”
a band formed in germany. they are the biggest thing out of germany in the last 20 years! they are exceptionally talented. the band members are bill kaulitz (lead singer), tom kaulitz (guitarist), georg listing (b-ss guitarist) and gustav (drums).

they have just released their first english alb-m in may. they sound the excat same in concert as they do on their cds, which is amazing! they all care for their fans, and write meaningful lyrics. tokio hotel was even able to play a concert in france to 500,000 people infront of the eiffel tower!
and most girls who see any of the band members want to die, faint, scream, cry, glow with happiness, or want to marry them.
