Down on You

I'd love for them to break here xD We might actually get some tour dates then <3

Here's the bit of the interview I was talking about: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbHS6wDY7WY (@ 6.53)

Thank you for the link
I love that Bill says German is difficult to learn. I'm learning it for A Level and sometimes i wonder why i ever chose that! It's SO difficult!
Aww Bill is saying all those sweet things about being twins and then Tom finishes with that comment ahha!

[melloni88]

I only got a B at GCSE it was so hard...damn weird grammar :/

Tom always has to go and ruin the cuteness with peen jokes xD So mature....

[xAngelPromisex]

I know, the grammar is impossible! Stupid ein, eine, einem, einen, einer etc! Drives me crazy! My best friend is German and when i was staying with her family, even they say a different form of 'ein' for some words! If GERMANS can't agree on which it is, then how am i supposed to learn it?! I'm doing A level and i still haven't got that right! I mean, i got an A at GCSE and i'm still finding it difficult! B at GCSE isn't bad though - that's what i got in my mock

I know! But, that's just the Tom we all know

[melloni88]

I was pretty pleased with my B, but I got an A in French and actually preferred German lol But I think that's because I am a fluent Spanish speaker and French is veeeery similar ^_^ And yes, what is up with the three genders as well!? Two is enough for most languages :/

Haha yes. We should be used to it by now, right? In one of the Japanese interviews Bill actually rolled his eyes at him xD

[xAngelPromisex]

I never did French for GCSE but i did it before and i was SO bad at it. I always prefered German and thought i was good at it until i started A Level. Btw, for my German this week we're doing German Music and, of course, i'm doing a powerpoint on Tokio Hotel and i'm allowed to play a clip from a song of theirs, as long as it's a German one. I want to pick one that will appeal to the people in my class (who are 17 so, although Durch Den Monsun would have been my first choice, i don't think a 14 year old Bill and his voice will appeal to the people in my class.) I'm thinking Ubers Ende Der Welt but i'm not sure. I need a song that they will like after only hearing a clip of it and, hopefully, get them interested in the band. Do you have any suggestions for me? If not, don't worry about it.

You speak Spanish fluently? Oh lucky I'd love to be able to speak another language fluently. I know! It's crazy!!

Yep of course His comments just never cease to amaze us! Then again, Bill can be pretty dirty himself when he wants to be Like in the interview for the Humanoid City tour when he made a reference to kissing a girls lips - downstairs

[melloni88]

Hmmm I'd play something off of the new album personally...Hunde is a good one. It sounds modern and different and, I think, destroys the image of TH as this 'teenage' band.

Haha yes, I am half Peruvian - so I have all three main language GCSEs lol My teachers forced me.

Oh God I forgot about that! I was so shocked xD Seriously, they're only a year younger than me...their maturity levels are pathetic haha.

[xAngelPromisex]

Ahh it's so difficult! I was thinking something off the new album originally and then i thought that something from Zimmer 483 would appeal more because not everyone in my class is into the more electronic music from Humanoid and Ubers Ende Der Welt is rockish enough to interest those who are more into rockish - pop/rock music but it's soft enough to interest those who aren't. But now i'm really not so sure. Humanoid is their newer stuff so it would make more sense to play something from there. Hunde is good, and maybe Sonnensystem or Traumer would have the same effect? It's so hard to choose because they have so many different styles and i love all their songs so it's hard to pick a 'stand out' song to play.

Wow that must have been difficult! But it's a good thing to have.

Yes i know, i was totally shocked as well! I didn't know Bill had it in him to say things like that! That interview never fails to make me laugh. The twins are so funny, and though Gustav and Georg don't say so much, when they do, they make me laugh

Tom: 'and we have to say, Bill has not the biggest brain. It happened just once, and that's awesome. I think for that brain, that's great.
Bill: Thank you.
...
Tom: And i think you had an accident with the microphone right?
Bill: Uh uh, can't remember
Tom: No?
Bill: No, can't remember
Tom: I can remember! With the microphone! and you - eh eh - with your teeth..
Georg: Hit yourself..
Tom: Yeah..
Bill: My teeth are perfect!
Tom: Yes, that's - well, now they are fake!
Bill: Oh you think so!
Then they all collapse about laughing
Georg: After the surgery they are perfect!
Tom: After the surgery!
Bill: Thank you!

Ahh those guys make me laugh Sorry about copying out that - it's just the best interview ever

[melloni88]

What about playing Humanoid (the German version)? That's sort of equal parts rocky and electronic and a really different song from them?

Oh God the fake teeth thing xD Tom is such a meanie, first he reveals Bill's virginity and then his veneers haha <3 I have to say I love the Tom/Georg bromance though - it's hilarious.

[xAngelPromisex]

That's a good idea, Humanoid is different and cool, and you're right, it's equal parts electronic and rocky. Ahh it's so hard to decide!...i'll think about that. But thank you so much for your opinion

I know I love their relationship, it's just the sweetest! Aww i know, its so funny when they gang up on Bill And Gusti's just falling aleep in the background, bless him

I am butting in here but I guess the German fans feel like that cause they're not exactly used to German artists getting big elsewhere - whereas UK artists go and start working in the US all the time.

It is a rather selfish attitude to have but then again I think this is TH's problem in general, they want to progress and change but are kind of being held back by their fans who think they should still be the same band that they were in their teens.

And as for the twins - I don't think anyone can understand that kind of connection unless they are a twin themselves. My best friends are twins and it's the same thing with the psychic connection, knowing when the other is ill/upset/in trouble etc...though they did want to do different things and therefore lead more separate lives than Bill and Tom do. Oh, and I remember knowing there were identical twins in Tokio Hotel before I became a fan but not knowing which ones they were when I saw their posters on the underground.

No your not butting in, this discussion is for anyone who wants to discuss it. Its nice to hear many of us have a similar opinion.

That whole thing about his virginity, even though we know what a joker Tom is, I still really dont think that was very nice of him to say. Thats Bills private business, as it is anyones. None has a right to know that about someone. That is between the person and the one they have sex with, noone elses.

Its ok to tease but not about that, especially publically.

Here's the bit of the interview I was talking about: www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbHS6wDY7WY (@ 6.53)

I watched the 3rd part of that interview as well. I find what Tom said about calling Bill just before he had that accident, saying he had a bad feeling and to be careful so strange. Its really something only other twins could understand. I know its like telepathy or whatever but I still dont understand it.

[xAngelPromisex]

Yes, i watched that too.
I find that so interesting. I've heard of that happening with people who aren't twins as well, but people who are very close. For example, my friend's dad sadly passed away at the beginning of 2010, and i spent New Years Eve in 2010 with her and her family. Her and her mum were both telling me about her husband/father seperately and they both told me about how they were together with the rest of the family the night that he died (it was very unexpected and sudden) and she told me how both her and my friend started crying at the same time randomly at the party - not proper crying but they both had tears rolling down their cheeks. Later, they found out that the time this happened would have been around the time he died.
Also, i've had something kind of similar with my best friend sometimes in the past. I woke up one day for school and i was getting ready and then i just felt really weird and i didn't know why. For some reason, i opened my diary and i wrote a small entry about how i felt so weird and i didn't know why i felt weird and i wrote the time i wrote it at the beginning as i always do. Two days later i was talking to my best friend (she lives in Germany so that's why it was two days later) and she told me how she had just got into school two days before and these people were laughing at her and she was so stressed over work and tired and everything and she ran into the toilets and just cried (and my friend hardly ever cries) This was the exact same time, we found out, as when i had written my entry in my diary that i felt bad - for me it was 7:15 and her around 8:10-8:20; due to time difference it's the exact same time.
Also once i had a really bad day where everything just seemed to go wrong and i cried several times. When i got home, my best friend was waiting for me on msn. She told she didn't know why but she just felt like i needed her because she had almost felt her heart hurting throughout the day (not like proper pain but like - ah i hope you know what i mean) and she thought that it meant i wasn't ok. So she came on to find out if i was.
I know that's not as strong as Bill and Tom, or as specific. I think anyone can almost feel if someone they really care about is upset or hurt - not all the times but sometimes - but that it is stronger if you are an identical twin just because of how strong that connection is. Look at it this way. Tom knows that something bad is going to happen to Bill before it happens and tells him to be careful and they are identical twins. Wife and daughter cry when husband/father dies but they don't realise that something bad has happened or what or to who. My best friend and i felt weird or sad for no reason when the other felt bad but had no idea it was because the other was sad or something. The lesser the connection is, the less detailed it is and the less the reaction is. I just really find things like that interesting

I'm sure he got slapped the minute that interview was over xD

But tbh, I've come to expect it from Tom. I mean, just recently, he made some really tasteless joke about Bill being bulimic and I was appalled...I know he's only joking, but still...he does take it to its limits sometimes.
