WWD JAPAN - 2011 FALL ISSUE ! ♥

SCANS & TRANSLATION - INROCK #333 ! ♥

Now, this is the first time that I have my life, not being Tokio Hotel. (Bill)



























Scans & Translation: THCNIt's an award for fans, right? It means that your fans are the best?
Bill & Tom: Yes!
Bill: It's an award for fans! Our fans are from foreign countries (Outside America), still we won the award, it's cool!!And, there's one more important thing. A few months ago, you guys had beaten of a lot of big artists and win the MTV O Music Award? It's great, can you talk about this?
Tom: Yes. Now, we're about to compose our mind and stay in the studio, we were not interviewed often, we are surprised! Even in such period, fans vote for us.
Bill: We didn't expect to it!
Tom: We even didn't know that we were nominated, after knowing that, we just thought that "it's great, but this is O Award, we won't win it".
Bill: It's really unexpected. In the past, when we won Headliner (6: EMA in 2008), and many other awards, we didn't feel the sense of reality... These all are achieved by our fans, for us. We are really proud of our fans, they support us greatly. Now, we don't have tour, just have our production in the studio, but still we won the award, we are really happy! It's really cool!It's great that you guys are safe!!
Bill & Tom: Yeah..*laugh* There's such story.You guys has shot another video?
Bill: Yeah, shot in Cape Town that one. Don't watch the German version, I really don't like it!Really?
Bill: Yes, though it's part of our history, I don't think we had made a good video, so I'm not that like it. But it's our starting point.You were so cute in that video! I have watched it for a few times.
Tom: *laugh* You have watched the whole?
Bill: Yap, we had his video, then a few years later, we shot the English version in Cape Town. It's a love song!
Tom: We were on an helicopter in the English version, after the shoot of the video, the helicopter was broken down.
Bill: It seems that it can no longer be manned.
Tom: We didn't know this, and we got on it. The shot goes well, but it's broken down a few days later.
Bill: It's too old, that there's even no license saying that it can be manned.*grin* By the way, your next single for radio is the great hit song "Monsoon". It's a new song here, in Japan. Can you tell us some stories about this song?
Bill: Yes. This is one of our first recording song by Tokio Hotel. It's in our first album, our first single in Germany, and the start of everything, so it's an important song, full of our memories. It fulfill our dreams, fans love this song. And "Monsoon" is also the most viewed video... We have brought this song to many countries. We have lots of memories in this song. We have also made a really beautiful video! Of course, it's an old song now...But, isn't it inconvenient to carry such big ring?
Bill: No, I love accessories. I have lots of accessories, a crazy number of accessories. There are chains, rings and other accessories. I have lots of accessories in my closet, a few thousands of them.'Cause we had asked from Tom that you bought lots of things there. *grin* (6: From InRock #326)
Bill: Yap, that's my favourite place in Los Angeles.From Melrose Avenue, right? (editor: Los Angeles' most fashionable street, with lots of secondhand clotheses store and characteristic fashion stores.)
Bill: Yes, from Melrose Avenue! You know it.I see. By the way, your ring is really marvelous! Can you introduce to us? (there are a few rings, they nearly hide Bill's finger. It seems that the rings have gimmicks)
Bill: This one? I brought this from Los Angeles' secondhand clotheses store, it seems that it was originally an old watch.You guys are all perfectionists. *grin*
Bill: Yap, as we are perfectionists, we want to write music with high quality. In the recent music industry, there are many people treat quality as minor, we want some bands creating music of high quality.Could you guys upload the first 20 seconds of one of the song on Internet?
Tom: *grin* There are too many songs for free nowadays.Okay...*grin*
Bill: But if we are 100% satisfied with our work, we will share with our fans.
Tom: Yap, conversely, if we are not 100% satisfied with our work, we will absolutely not make it public.Where do you guys get inspiration from for your songs recently?
Bill: Tom and I get all the inspiration from our life. Now, this is the first time that I have my life, not being Tokio Hotel. We are always touring, and grew up in the eye of public, it might be the first time that we can live and keep our privacy. So we try to challenge everything that we couldn't do in the past, this way of life is new to us, not touring. So, now, we get our inspiration from whom we met and our life. And movie. We like watching movie.
Tom: Also, time is important. Having enough time inspires us a lot. We live with our own lifestyle, have few weeks doing nothing. I think is really great. Songs that we bring to our fans is certainly great.
Bill: The most important thing is that we don't have pressure. The date of release of our next album is not decided, to us, this is important. We are not a band that will release an album annually. We are kind of free. As we think that ideas come to our mind spontaneously, we may have to spend 2, 3 or 4 years for an album, so we don't know when will our new album be finished. We will spend as much time as we like on it, this is important.

If we are not 100% satisfied with our work, we will absolutely not make it public. (Tom)You're right. So far, how many songs have you guys written?
Tom: If you are talking about the number of songs, the number is enough for us to go to the studio. But we don't want this. We will keep on writing songs and write down our ideas, production keeps on...
Bill: We can't tell you exactly how many songs we have written. In our laptop, there are a lot of songs we wrote since 2000. We have taken some songs from there and made some modifications. It's difficult to say exactly how many songs we have written. Anyway, we have written many songs, a mountain of songs.
Tom: One day, inside this mountain, we will think that "Ok, we are ready!". At that time, there're songs that can be combined into an album.
Bill: There are some songs that I don't like after recording.I see. So, you guys are working on your new album?
Bill & Tom: Yes!You guys are stars, there are many people admire your music and existence, right? Do you guys think that it's destiny.
Bill: Yeah, it can only be destiny. We have talked about this in many interview, that we are saved by music, in many ways. We, not only immerse ourselves in our music, but also in many other music. When we are sad, we will go to party, we listen to different music according to the atmosphere. Also, we create our own music, we are inspired by a lot of stories, and write our songs, this is the way which can solve our problem best. Everything around us is our inspiration. For us, music is a therapy, it works in different way. We will be happy if we can play such role. Though we are amazed that fans value us, we are really happy that they need our band.After the earthquake disaster, many Japanese start thinking about their lives and destinies. Do you have anything that you think that you must do in your life? What's in your mind when disaster comes?
Tom: Yes, I think that when something like that happens, a great impact will be made on everyone, all over the world. It happens so quickly, just in an instant, you can actually feel the terror of Nature.
Bill: Life is really fragile... I'm really scared.
Tom: The earthquake has changed the life of people all over the world. We all reflect on our life. There're so many people being killed, people all feel heartbreaking, so people is affected, for no reason.What will you guys do?
Bill: If there's any chance, we will grasp it with joy. For this time's MTV, there're really a lot of artists gathered together to show their support. I think that's really great. The scene of many people holding together for the same purpose is nice.Also, you guys will have a collaboration with Germany's football team player Kagawa (Borussia Dortmund's midfielder Shinji Kagawa), right?
Bill: Yes, we met him a lot recently. Although he says "I'm not that familiar with football...", he's really a nice guy.Your fans have also done something, right?
Bill: Yes, in order to raise money for Japanese Red Cross Society, we have designed some buttons, and many fans bought these buttons. I'm really happy to see fans helping us.It's graceful that you guys could go back safely.
Bill: Yes, of course, but we really love this country, we like Tokyo the best, so we treat Tokyo's matter as our matter. As the earthquake is really shocking, we think that, we will do anything if they need us, we want to show our support to Japan! So we are really happy that we can raise money for Japanese Red Cross Society with MTV.*laugh* Let's back to our subject. First, I would like to thank you guys for supporting victims in Tohoku and Fukushima. You guys have done a lot of work in helping them?
Bill: Yes. When we heard of the earthquake, we were really shocked, since we just came back from Japan a few weeks before the earthquake.Okay, but I just can't imagine that Bill has such side.
Bill: *laugh* No, no, I am the same as everyone, I grow beard.
Tom: Even I am the twin brother, I am shocked! In the morning, when I saw this guy's face, I was just like "What's happening to this face!? This is not Bill!". I'm really openmouthed. *laugh*
Bill: *laugh* But the worst thing is that I'm bored by myself, so I always change my look.
Tom: Just go out with your natural beauty. *grin* Hey, do I look old?
Bill: You are just 21, so it's okay, isn't it?
Tom: Yes, it's okay. If I wear a beard, I look like 21, right? I'm no longer 16, 17 years old.Don't say something like that, don't you care about your look and styling all the time?
Bill: You're right, but I'm also human being, the same as everyone! *grin*...well, what can I say... *grin*
Bill & Tom: *laugh*
Tom: I'm as beautiful as usual, right *grin*? Well...I think that beard can hide my rough skin. Should I continue to expose my rough skin, as Bill does so, or should I grow a beard to cover it? I chose the later one.
Gustav: Even you do so, you are as beautiful as usual! *grin*
Tom: Right? *grins*
Bill: But, for Tom and I, it's not a big deal. I'm a bit lazy in the morning, I also grow beard, the same as everyone. If it is okay for me not to shave off my beard, of course, this way is always easier.
Tom: Gustav got chest hair! *laugh*
Bill: Yeah, chest hair! *laugh*

In the morning, when I saw Bill's face with beard, I was shocked, even I am the twin brother... (Tom)*laugh* Right. But the look of you guys is part of the image of Tokio Hotel, to fans, it's a great deal.
Bill: You're right. For us, it's completely normal, but for fans, it's big problem, it's strange.By the way, Tom, what's happening to your beard? Fans are talking about it!
Tom: You don't like it? *laugh*Having mini live at Audi Forum Tokyo. From left to right: Georg Listing, Tom Kaulitz, Bill Kaulitz, Gustav Schäfer.

Tokio Hotel visit Japan for MTV's VIDEO AID JAPAN (hereafter referred to VMAJ). In our last issue, we published our close coverage and photos of Tokio Hotel, this time, we will publish their interview. We haven't met Kaulitz brothers for three months, they are still handsome, but Tom has wear a thin beard. Though they are twins, you can distinguish them from their image. Bill has shown up with beard in an award, it seems that fans are shocked. And, this time, apart from VMAJ, Tokio Hotel has also done mini live in Audi's Showroom. There're a lot of fans saying that they can't wait to enjoy a normal concert. "It doesn't matter how much money you can spend, only those, who have won the tickets, can attend this live. It's hard." said the fans. According to Germany's staff, Japan's promoter has contacted them for a few times, the band's also full of drive. It may not be a long way to fulfill fans' wish...?Japan's summer is humid, right?
Bill: Yap, it's really hard that you have to work under such weather. I don't care if we are in vacation, and relax for the whole day.
Tom: But it's better than cold!
Bill: Surely, it's better than winter.

Tokio Hotel in Moscow

Finally it happened! Tokio Hotel arrived in Moscow on Muz-TV Award! BRAVO met with a group and learned many interesting details of their lives.

BRAVO editor Lisa talked to the guys in the Olympic Stadium just minutes before the award ceremony Muz-TV.

Bravo: you are such a huge crowd of fans greeted at the hotel! But suddenly the security guard came out and said that you asked the girls to be quiet.
All four loud laugh.
George and Tom: What-oh!
Bill: Wow! We have a never told anyone! On the contrary! We are madly in love ¬ camping, when fans are glad to welcome us ¬ mi cheers! Next time, if you hear this, please: we do a security guard in the neck chase!

Bravo: Well, thank God! My dogs are you today, too, was brought to Moscow?
Bill: Unfortunately, no ... They stayed at home. Last year we took our two large dogs (German Shorthair and Labrador) on tour. But in Mo ¬ skve us for long, so do not like to once again Nervi ¬ rovat dogs. For them, the re ¬ years - it's always stressful. If I could change the rules, the gap-sewed all the animals would travel in the passenger compartment of the aircraft. And during the tour we went on the bus and the dog slept with me in bed!

Bravo: Bill, much ado has done a video on the Net, where you show up with a beard. It was a real beard?
Tom: No, it's post-production! He painted it afterwards on the computer. (All laugh).
Bill: You might be surprised, but I'm also growing a beard! Do not expect that my stubble look cause such a stir. The camera was not very good, and I thought that no one who can not make out. I generally go home always unshaven. And if you need to dress up, then shave.

Bravo: Now you, too, dressed up ... On your hood with fur. But now in Moscow on 25!
Bill: Yes, I honestly did not think there will be so warm!
Tom: By the way, please note that it is fake fur! And in general we are vegetarians.

Bravo: Cool! Bill, you and your brother have done a tattoo twins, who have long been planning?
Bill: Tom did not dare! He is afraid to do yourself tatuhu.
Tom: I'm so-so is a painful piercing ponadelal, but also tatuhu - as something scary. Why do I need my such a beautiful body with tattoos to cover? (Bill is filled with laughter). I think Bill is going, if it's the body itself tatuhami score. Face as well. My then-handsome face sorry to score!

Bravo: And if you do decide to make a tattoo, what would it be?
Bill: A little secret message, of course only two of us, and where nobody can see!

Bravo: Bill, Adam Lambert said about you in every interview. And if he would call and invite you to a restaurant, then you agree?
Bill: I know him, and he does not know my number! So we do not destiny to eat together! (Slyly looking).

Bravo: I'm here on the Internet is found! It turns out that there is such a topic as tvintsest! It's twins, who love each other, etc.
Persons musicians express bewilderment.
Tom: Uh-uh? .. There are twins who love each other?
Bill: Twin cesta?
Bravo: Yes, some draw the two of you in different poses ...
Bill: Me and Tom!
Tom: What kind of garbage is that? This is generally a legal issue? (Laughter)
Bill: These people are probably sick.
Tom: Sorry, but I have nothing to do with them I do not want to have. (All laugh).

Bravo: Yes, people with a sick imagination of many. And what was the last event of the meeting with inappropriate people?
Bill: The last horrible incident was when they robbed my apartment in Germany. Because of this ¬ first case we are left in the U.S. and now live in Los Angeles. Because in Europe it is very difficult - some people are crazy, they just mania. They are ready for anything. Among them there are surely those crazy, to ¬ torye tvintsestom do. (Laughs). At some point we realized that 24 hours we have to be under the supervision of security, and such a life has become unbearable ...

Bravo: What to do in Los Angeles?
Bill: We are working on a new album. And I have the whole day off swimming in the pool or lighting it in an amusement park. Tom and I on this crazy. In an amusement park, by the way, we celebrated our 20 birthday with - is, however, was in Germany.
Tom: I love to ride a jet-ski, a quad. I like everything with an engine!
Tom: In Los Angeles, we enjoy the fact that we can calm ¬ but go to the supermarket and buy a yogurt, rent a car.
George: Make the intimate haircut in the salon ... (All laugh).
Bill: Especially cool that in the U.S. are su ¬ permarkety open 24 hours a day!
Tom: But even there, we're pretty detached live. Still, 100%, we can not be free ¬ mi. Most of the time we spend at home.

"After we were robbed, we can no longer live in Europe"
