Bill : That sounds really really great. so we wanna say “Thank You”. We’re really excited about that and we have to see our fans very soon..

VJ Chino: Who came up with the concept of the video of automatic where you guys have like a
big robot?
Bill : We shot the video in South Africa. We had the idea that we wanna have robots because we’re not really good actors.

VJ Chino: Alright. So let’s backtrack a bit. So, what was the story behind the name “Tokio Hotel”?
Bill : We travel the world and sleep in hotels. We play concerts everywhere so that’s
why we chose “Hotel”.
tom : And “Tokio” just because of the town. We wanted a town that
we don’t know.

VJ Chino : Did you guys expect to be this big internationally, not just in Germany?
Bill : we never expected that we’ll have the chance to get successful in Germany. And then we became successful in some other countries. It was really unexpected.

VJ Chino : Alright, so which bands or artist do you guys look up to? Like your favorite band?
Bill : I think there’s not one band because we are all really different when it comes to our music taste. My favorite bands at the moment are the Stereophonics and Kings of Leon.

VJ Chino : And for bill, how does it feel like a lot of people are copying your style?
Bill : It’s also kind of a compliment when other people try to copy your style. It has to be good so thank you for that.

VJ Chino : And lastly what’s your message for your Filipino fans especially the members of the Tokio Hotel Official Philippine Fan Club?
Bill: We wanna say “Thank You” for your support so far. It’s really unexpected that we have fans over there. It’s really cool to hear that and we’re so grateful. We wanna come out there definitely. Maybe in the beginning of the next year. We’ll come out there and have the chance to meet our fans.
