You’re a human being, you KNOW that “good music” is an opinion based thing, You can’t even begin to compare the Jonas Brothers or anything like that to Tokio Hotel. Why? Because they’re COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

No, Spring Nicht would probably not be played at a pool party (unless it was like a TH party or something) Because it’s not a hyped up song. It’s obvious that deeper music isn’t your thing. Also, did you even bother to find out what the lyrics of the song mean? The point of that song was to be expressive- EXPRESS EMOTIONS.

And, I personally dislike their English Music only because Bill’s accent ruins it for me, and because the lyrics aren’t as meaningful, or completely different in some cases. So yeah, i wouldn’t even go there.

Now, addressing their looks.

1. They were both born feminine guys. they’re skinny twigs. No one’s fault. They eat a crap ton. Still skinny. And they happen to have really pretty, feminine faces.

2. That picture was old, They’re much older now. Yes, Bill is very much into fashion, makeup, shoes. But this isn’t something he did for the Band’s image. You can find pictures of Him as a very young kid, dressing different, wearing makeup, with piercings, making his own clothes. He’s always been that day. Oh but Tom isn’t girly at all now, nor was he then minus the fact that he was skinny, so i don’t even know where you were getting that from.

3. The fans arent drawn to them just for their look, their image. I am friends with a lot of fellow fans and the truth is, they all have their individual favorite songs, which are usually varied in feel and style, and their own favorite time period for TH because no, they aren’t perfect. No, we don’t worship the ground they walk on, in fact, i know every single fan has cringed and been totally freaked out by them before. WHy? Because they’re people- they change. they go through phases.

4. I applaud Tokio Hotel for their daring nature. There is no way that their image or style is for promotion of the band. Back in the beginning of their career, they got turned down a few times because “They were too weird, their name was too weird, no one would go for their style” and they wouldn’t make money. BUT there was Jost, who saw potential. No matter how many times they would’ve gotten turned down, they have talent, they would easily find another record producer.

That’s my rant y’all.

I’m surprised about the fact that he(the blogger) is actually bothering to criticize Tokio Hotel when he can clearly pick on things called Justin Bieber and The Jonas Brothers. Tokio Hotel won’t seem too girly to you after you actually hear those girls out. Plus, it is really tiring about the way everyone’s going about the way they’re so annoying and girly and dreary and blah blah blah.
These ppl are 21 to around 23 years old, from what I hear. One should give them thumbs up for the fact that their music isn’t exactly boring nor are their lyrics super dumb. They make sense, they’re slightly more matured than many musicians of their age. True their music isn’t remarkable(to me at least) but then again how many singers nowadays are that great? They just happen to be making music a few degrees higher in standard compared to other musicians(which is a great accomplishment for artists so young). Add to that the looks, (no matter what you say ) which are unique. Then you have the good stage performance. So there’s nothing surprising about many ppl liking them. What is surprising to me is that how ppl like Jonas Brothers, Justin Bieber, Miley Cyrus and other such trashy artists are actually famous.
Many good bands should get the spotlight. But sadly, not that many ppl know about them or other equally talented bands.

Tokio Hotel isn't really my music, because of my age I'm more into Oasis, Coldplay and stuff like that, but you know what… i wonder why you spend so much time writing about a Band you barely know, you spend about fifteen minutes waiting and how much time you spend on this article? +google, etc?

You went to the Museo del Prado to learn something about art, have you learned (and saw) there, that art and taste can be different? Same with music I would say :)

And at least this Band wasn't casted on a TV Show, that's for me a *thumps up

My question to you Kate, are all Americans really so intolerant or you just had a bad day? (which can easily happen to me as well)

Krys from Germany

ps. sorry for my sarcasm, i'm trying to stop that :))

Cheers.
