FANS ARE THE TIMES OF FOLIES TO MEET THEIR IDOLES. WHAT IS THE MOST SURPRENANTE THING YOU VIEW?
BILL: In Los Angeles, a daughter is entering through the window of our hotel room. It was the second floor. It remains unclear how she managed to climb so far! And a fan has given us a star as a gift. There is now a star somewhere in the sky called Tokio Hotel.
TOM: Our fans often come from very far and they sleep anywhere to be able to see us. It's really cool.
WHAT IS THE SONG THAT YOU PREFER INTERPRETING ON STAGE?
Raise Your Hands. We wrote this song is specially for the shows, for our fans.
B.: For my part, I love Scream, because it is one of our first pieces. It's really cool to be able to play on stage and hear the crowd sing with us.
WHAT ARE THE HIGH AND THE BOTTOM OF THE TOUR?
What is difficult is we did not really privacy. It is always on the road, it was not our own bed and you can not be with our family and friends. Sometimes it's very hard to live.
T.: However, it allows us to excel on the scene and it's worth it. The promotion, interviews, photos… it's okay, but what we prefer, it shows.
B.: It likes to travel everywhere and sleep in different cities every night.
TRANSPORTEZ YOU A LITTLE SOMETHING FOR YOU WITH YOU IN YOUR MIND-SOI?
Each group member contributes seven or eight bags, which makes a lot of baggage! In fact, as I have no fixed abode, everything that I have, I carried in my bag.
T.: It carries everything we had with us.
WHAT KIND OF MUSIC ÉCOUTIEZ YOU WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER?
B.: We are all different, even in terms of musical tastes. I really like Coldplay and Keane.
T.: When I started playing the guitar, I listened to Aerosmith. I was also a big fan of Joe Perry. Now, in my spare time, I listen to a lot of German pop music.
Y A THERE A CÉLÉBRITÉ WHICH YOU DONE CRAQUER?
B.: Tom and I love the Olsen twins!
T.: I think that is largely because they are twins, and that we are twins. I also like Jessica Alba, Heidi Klum ... I can not name them all!
YOUR NEW ALBUM REGROUPE SONGS OF YOUR FIRST TWO DISCS. HOW DO YOU CHOSEN?
It has simply chosen our favorite songs.
B.: We wanted to make songs diversified, and thus show what is really Tokio Hotel. On the album, there are ballads and coins more rhythmic.
IS IT THERE IS A SONG THAT WOULD YOU TO PUT ON THE ALBUM, BUT WHICH HAS NOT BEEN SELECTED?
T.: No, they are all.
IF YOU POUVIEZ TO TOUR WITH ANY GROUP WITH WHICH PARTIRIEZ YOU?
I go on tour with a group of girls, like The Pussycat Dolls! (laughs)
B.: All rock bands dream of making a tour with the Rolling Stones! It would be sick!
WHAT THE COUNTRY FANS ARE THE MOST INTENSE?
It's hard to say. I think we have the best fans in the world, no matter where you go, whether in Europe, the USA or Canada. This is crazy!
T.: It is very well received in all countries they visit.
B.: The fans are always there for us. Moreover, they camped in front of theaters where you play. It's really incredible!
YOU REMPORTÉ LOT OF SUCCESS, AND THAT, ACROSS THE WORLD. IS IT AGAIN IN BIZARRE TO ZERO IN AMERICA?
T.: Yes, but for a German group is a chance to be known to the USA.
B.: It's really tripant: three years ago, we would have never believed so successful in Germany and Europe. We did not think we would come to the USA and we also give performances in Canada one day. It is really happy.
ARE YOU SATISFIED IN THE REACTION THAT YOU SUSCITEZ IN AMERICA?
T.: It has only just begun ... But this kind of success is more than what we expected.
AMERICAN CITY WHAT DO YOU PREFERRED TO THIS?
You can not really answer this question, because we have only visited New York and Los Angeles.
B.: I loved New York, but I have a weakness for Los Angeles. You can go to the beach all day, and it's always beautiful!
T.: The girls were beautiful in both cities. That's important
WHERE HAS THE NAME TOKIO HOTEL?
B.: It was originally called Devilish. But we wanted to find a different name, which was fine. It is all guys from the city and we love big cities. We therefore chose Tokyo (Tokyo Tokio written in German). Since dreamed of traveling around the world and sleep in hotels, said Hotel.
WHERE DO YOU SEE TOKIO HOTEL AT THE END OF 2008?
Several performances are planned for the coming months. Moreover, we will work in the studio. We want to write new songs and record a new album. I hope we can do all that before the end of the year!
