The success becomes passion!

Madness! Tokio Hotel made a hit int he MTV Video Music Awards! Now they reveal their career’s drug…

Everything, that they touch, turns into gold, patinum or an award! Tokio Hotel started in the music world in three years before. The fans can think just them since then. And now the absolute unsurpasseble (thing) is: Tokio Hotel harvested an award which for nobody expected: int he MTV Video Music Awards, int he ’Best New Artist’ category! The high point of their carreer! Their biggest success! Moreover Bill (19), Tom (19), Gustav (20) and Georg (20) too all, they bet, that didn’t succeed. Because in Hollywood, ont he VMA, they had a enormous concurrency. Megastars, like Miley Cyrus and Katy Perry were nominated with them. But after all they managed to – in fact, as the first German band! „We didn’t really expected that. This is simply just incredible cool”, shouts Bill in his delight. „We will have the really first party in here now.” Since they have already been officially stars, because in Hollywood they pertain there. Under the show, our Magdeburgians even played with Miley Cyrus with the computer game, called ’Guitar Hero’, and gave interview with The Pussycat Dolls. And on the after-show-party, they had fun together with Kid Rock, Paris Hilton and her Co.
An evening, that Bill, Tom, Gustav and Georg have never forgotten in their whole life. A dream, which came true.

An evening, that Bill, Tom, Gustav and Georg do not stain in his whole life to forget long. A dream, which changes to truth,. Tokio Hotel does not finish it for a long time yet after all. Everything is wanted. To prepare more music. Tokio Hotel haven’t finished it yet so far. They want everything. Prepare more music. Fill even more halls. Record more CDs: „The success really becomes passion. This is our drug. We want always more,”, explains Bill. „We feel ourselves simply well because of it. Especially Tom and I, we are totally workaholics. We write songs and record them steadily or we want to go to tour again immediately. Finally, we want to live our dream.” And Tokio Hotel enjoy every second in their life. „Every new tribute is a new level for us. We often think of: What will comes so far? And after that will come the next event, our world is shattered. ”
Whether what Tokio Hotel responded first, that they are stars? „It was on the Comet Awards in 2005. It was the first time, that we were in a huge event like this. As we arrived into the hall, suddenly everybody ran into our direction.”, remembers Bill. „We just thought: What happened here? Who were here, that everybody screams? We thought, that the fans intended it for somebody else. We were totally stunned, from the fact that everything was pivoted us suddenly.”, laughs Tom. „And top of it all, even we won a prize, it whirled us totally.”

But after all yet, it haven’t came that the boys cry in their joy into their handkerchief (I’ m not sure it is correct, but it is the substance.): „As to me, the tears burnt my eyes several times.” admits Bill. „Because I have never wanted to cry publicly.” On the Europe Music Awards 2007, Bill was really near to it: „Once, our name was announced. In all over from Europe, fans voted for us. Na ya, I was really goose bumps then. Everybody from our team jumped up. I couldn’t looked them until a moment, because I couldn’t able to hold up myself.”

What is Tokio Hotel’s succes recipt? Why they win almost every prizes? Why they have so many fans? „Only just we haven’t know it”, laughs Georg. „From the beginning, we hold to important that, we want to do everything ourselves. All e-mail, all photos – everyhing have gone through our tabla. I have never want to be a puppet, who observes a schedule speechlessly.”, adds Bill. „Although this is the problem of a lot of people. But they can’t be do nothing against us.” Since the hard fight was rewarded – as we can see.
