To write history is necessary to macerate the present time to be able to have a clear picture of what happened. Speaking of the Germans Tokio Hotel is talking about a very young band whose short life begins to offer hints of greatness in comparison with their peers.
The path to the current positions of privilege in the music scene, has not been easy and although it seems contradictory, it was easier to reach. In that sense, the undeniable talent of its members was the main architect and the reason why, in just a few months, the band was known in half of Europe. Posts
looking back and trying to make a crucial moment in the career of Tokio Hotel, we are left with no doubt, was the performance that made a fresh start at European level and laid the groundwork for international expansion group. We talk about the action that took place in the MTV European Music Awards in 2007.
The 14th edition of the tournament went to the city of Munich, the third time Germany hosted the ceremony following the appointments of Berlin (1994) and Frankfurt (2001). The election was not without controversy, as the federal state of Bavaria is Catholic and MTV celebrated his feast on November 1, the feast of All Saints. The Archdiocese of Munich criticized the decision to allow the ceremony and even the interior ministry of the State of Bavaria had to mediate in the matter.
The gala was presented by the American rapper Snoop Dogg and had first-rate performances with artists such of Mika, Foo Fighters , My Chemical Romance, Avril Lavigne and Amy Winehouse, among others.
Tokio Hotel, who were nominated in a couple of categories, chose to singing "Monsoon " that brought them much luck in the German version and had been published a few months before the album "Scream ". The fact that "play" at home, made the Management had some facilities when you can prepare a bombing with which to try to astonish the world. The MTV is not even a shadow of its former self, but today, the delivery of the Music Awards are the last major musical soiree to which millions of people around the globe match one night watching television.
Although not externalize in excess, the band was very nervous about all the responsibility that rested on his shoulders. Playing at home, to be televised around the world and your Management has had the bright idea that performance falls in the middle of a torrential rain on stage, are reason enough to feel like mounted on the first pass and taxi lost.
When the action started, they heard some boos at the Olympiahalle in Munich, which a priori might seem unthinkable in the case who it is, but that it was. These cries came from the public sector not so young, that sought to distance himself from the image of exclusive group for adolescents who did and does as much damage to the band.
began playing Tokio Hotel "Monsoon " with a lot of sobriety. The stage was relatively small and could see clearly the whole group. Behind them, a great big screen sky images reproduced villages of moving clouds. Bill Kaulitz was quite restrained and transmitting, as the rest of the components, a great seriousness in their performance. The passage of the song was gaining in intensity and the climax came in the final minute of the subject, when suddenly it began to rain on stage. From that moment, for 50 seconds, were felt most impressive scenes that have been seen recently in a performance of an awards show with a band led by a Bill Kaulitz that transmitted more force and passion than ever. You can hardly put into words the great amount of information received by simply viewing the scene. View pictures and suffer a chill is synonymous with being alive.
After the performance, the Olympiahalle in Munich collapsed and even other displaced Fans nominated groups, surrender to what they had seen.
Interestingly, the best shots were given by Gustav and Georg , the two members who tend to be somewhat in the shadow of the role of the brothers Kaulitz . Both were limited to comply with orders not to stop moving when it starts to drop water and bassist both headers such as the battery, caused a sensation. The idea was the Management could not be more effective and it is clear that besides mastering the economic field like a charm, in the musical press to know right where to touch the fiber.
From that day, nothing will ever be the same. Europe was small as the world opened its doors. Over time, we can say that this action would fundamentally change the direction of the band. It is little more than curious, it is precisely in the All Saints Day, when the group reached its particular glory ...
