Tokio Hotel(translated from English - "Hotel in Tokyo") - a synth-pop-rock band from Germany. It was created in 2001 in Magdeburg by a pair of twins - Bill and Tom Kaulitz. Seeing how they perform, bassist Georg Listing and drummer Gustav Schäfer joined the group. When the team was formed, the guys were 12-14 years old. The band's original name was Devilish. On weekends, the team played small gigs at a local entertainment venue. In 2003, the band released their first album without collaboration with labels and sold copies of it in small quantities at their performances.

In the same year, at one of their concerts, the guys were noticed by producer Peter Hoffman, who became famous for his collaboration with famous musicians. When he first heard them, he immediately realized that the team would easily win tremendous success. The guys were invited to Hoffman's studio, where they met with his team, with whom they worked for the next years. Peter changed the band's name to Tokio Hotel. And in the summer of 2005, the premiere composition of the Tokio Hotel team called "Durch den Monsun" was released. Among other things, the musicians recorded and released the Japanese version of this single "Monsun o koete".

Soon the guys signed an agreement with a famous label, and their debut song appeared on German television channels. After the release of the video for the premiere song Tokio Hotel, the band immediately gained a lot of fans. She very quickly became the leader of the German and Austrian charts. The second clip of the guys for their song "Schrei" was waiting for a similar and even greater success. The band's first album, Tokio Hotel, was released in 2005. It proved to be largely commercially successful. The following year, the next album of the group is released - the main reason for its creation was the change in Bill's voice.

One of the compositions of this disc was also in the lead in the charts, reflecting the growing success of the band. In the fall of 2006, the guys gave a performance in the Russian capital - it was one of the first concerts outside the homeland of the performers, which showed that they are in demand all over the world. And at the beginning of 2007, the big European tour of Tokio Hotel began, which turned out to be extremely successful. In the summer of the same year, the band's record was released on English language, thanks to which the group's popularity extends to the United States of America, Spain, England and a number of other countries. After 2009, a certain decline in the success of the team began. The band's next album was released in 2014.

Days are passing by Without being there
Everything was so fine
Everything me and you
Go, go We did nothing wrong
Thought all the time
That's how we could go on Everything else we will see
Go, go Go, leave us behind you and me Don't try to understand
Why can't we go on anymore
Go try to loose us both
We'll only be able to go on

Go, go Go, do it for you and me I couldn't do it
I wouldn't be brave enough
Everything you and me Go, go Days are passing by Without being there
Your trace leads to me So far away from you
Go, go I break the light
Shadows fall onto me I don't see us All shadows fall onto me, onto me Shadows fall onto me Days are passing by Without being there
That's everything that's left for us If you go, if you go now
Don't try to understand
Why can't we go on anymore
Go try to loose us both
We'll only be able to go on
If we don't see each other anymore
Go, go Days are passing by Without being there
stay

Translation of the song

Days pass. Not being there
Everything was so perfect
All me and you
Go, go We haven't done anything wrong
Mentally all the time
That's how we can go on All we'll see
Go, go Go, leave us behind you and me. Don't try to understand


We can continue
If we don't see each other again
Go go do it for me and me I couldn't do it
I wouldn't be brave enough
Everything you and me. Go, go. Days pass. Not being there.
Your trail leads to me So far away from you
Go go I'll break the light
Shadows fall on me, I can't see us. All the shadows fall on me, on me Shadows fall on me Days pass. Don't be there
This is all that's left for us. If you go, if you go now
Don't try to understand
Why can't we go on anymore
Go try to set us both free
We can continue
If we don't see each other again
Go, go The days are passing by. Not being there
Stay
