Summary: Great new band
Comment: I was a bit hesitant to get this, as the group members are all so young, but realized that was silly.
I love this cd! the first song is Scream, and it's a great way to start off the cd. After that, it's Ready Set Go, which is one of the two videos i've seen of theirs.
Monsoon, is actually a re recording of an older song of theirs, which is also included on this cd(in german). Mosoon was the first song i ever heard by them, and it's a great introduction!
There are plenty of songs to love on this. Live every second, is pretty straight forward! live! Sacred and Rescue me are both beautiful songs, and i'm in awe that a young guy like Bill had a hand in writing them.
Don't Jump: listen to it, that's all i have to say, it's so sad but a very good song you'll want to listen to over and over again.
It helps that the guys play their own instruments. And are good looking to boot, but Bll's voice is great, and the music is well worth a listen!

Summary: Rockin'!!!
Comment: Totio Hotel ROCKS!!! This is the first CD I've listened to and actually like ALL the songs. You know how there's normally one you really don't like... This one isn't like that at all (my opinion). Their music is full of enery... don't know anyother way to say it. They're a very talented band for being so young. And they sound great in both German and English! :)

Summary: Tokio Hotel's debut English album
Comment: Tokio Hotel has sold more albums in Germany alone than The Beatles during their time. They are extremely popular in Europe, definitely THE most popular international band, and are now making their debut in America. This CD is a mixture of their first and second German albums, translated into English. Their sound is compatible with American rock music, and the translations keep the essence of each song well. If you are into clean rock music, I would strongly suggest Tokio Hotel.
1. Scream - 9/10. A rebellious rock-punk song about your opinions being heard. A great song (especially live), but is one of their earlier songs, and thus not as musically complicated as their later ones.
2. Ready Set Go - 10/10. Another rebellious rock anthem. The music is more intricate than Scream, and very catchy and motivating.
3. Monsoon - 20/10. The song that put them on the map. A beautiful power-ballad that anyone can enjoy, and lyrics that will make you melt.
4. Love Is Dead - 10/10. Everyone I know loves this song. Very Romeo and Juliet-esque.
5. Don't Jump - 8.5/10 - I give this an 8.5, but most people I know are very touched by this song, and consider it their favorite Tokio Hotel song. It is about suicide, and finding enough hope not to do it.
6. Live Every Second - 10/10. An extra track. Very catchy and fun to listen to, and sounds even better in English than in German.
7. On The Edge - 10/10. Great song about the negative effects of drugs.
8. Sacred - 9/10. A softer song about ending a love relationship, but still feeling as though that person is special to you. Very pretty.
9. Break Away - 7.5 or 8/10. In English, it is lyrically their weakest song in my opinion. The guitar riff is catchy, but the words sound awkward in English, because, for some reason, the singer's accent is detectable in this song. Still enjoyable, though.
10. Rescue Me - 8/10. A song about being left and betrayed by someone you loved. Some of the emotion seems lost in the translation to English. The German version, however, is one of their strongest snd most powerful songs.
11. Final Day - 8.5/10. Good song.
12. Forgotten Children - 9/10. An emotional song about children who have been abandoned and without homes.
13. By Your Side - 9/10. Beautiful.
14. 1000 Oceans - 20/10. ADDICTIVE. Great, great song. A bonus track.
15. Durch Den Monsun - 10/10. Bonus track. This is the original, German version of the song 'Monsoon'. It is the version the band did when they first became famous, which means that they were younger, which means that the lead singer's voice hadn't fully developed by this time. The singing is good, but he has a high voice than the rest of the album. This is no drawback, and gives a taste of what their German songs sound like.
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND this album. This is rock music anyone can enjoy, with very personal, emotional songs that you can easily get addicted to. Tokio Hotel has completely taken over Europe in a matter of years, and is on their way to taking over America. If you are looking for something a little new and fresh, pick up this album NOW.

Editorial Reviews:
|
Tokio Hotel are a teenage phenomenon in Germany and across Europe. The band are lead singer/ songwriter Bill (who is all of 17) has been singing and writing lyrics since he was nine. His twin brother Tom (also only 17) has played the guitar for 6 years. In 2001, Bill & Tom met bassist Georg (18) & drummer Gustav (17) at a gig. They decided to form Tokio Hotel and immediately began working on songs. This debut album went to No. 1 in Germany and at this writing has sold 10 x Platinum (worldwide) and now comes to you in English! Each their first 5 singles hit Number 1 in Germany and their debut tour was a 43 date sellout, playing to over 400,000 people. The Echo Awards (Germany's equivalent of The Brits) named them "Best Newcomer 2005", MTV France pronounced them "Best Newcomer 2006", The World Music awards proclaimed them "Best Selling German Act 2006" and The European Border Breaker Awards declared them the "Best Selling German Act 2006".
