TokioHotel WW57 (Bill: On Bill)

Bill talking about our favorite subject: BILL!


I never had a problem with being alone, on the contrary. In Kindergarten there was this little house or a cosy corner (area with pillows and cuddly toys), where you could go to with your friends. I didn’t really like that in those days. I would rather stay home all day. School was also totally gross. But without all that, you can’t really get ahead in life. Thats why I decided to go anyway. I am so happy to have my mother in my life. She is very important to me
She has always supported Tom and me. Also with our music

She even used to drive the entire band to gigs. That was cool, but there were also rules and restrictions at home. But that wasn’t a bad thing. Things got rough when our parents divorced. We were 6 years old. It was simply a stange feeling to think that from now on dad wouldn't be living with us anymore. It was a terrible thing back then. But nowadays I dont have any problems with that anymore, because I understand it better now. Its worse when parents are just staying together because of the kids.
Between our mother and us things were always great.

One time though she was really angry with us and disappointed, That was at a teacher-parents conference at school. All parents had complained about Tom and me (haha). They wanted to take their children out of our Group (class) because of us (OMG, lol). My mother was not happy about that. But the parents from the other kids from our village were just narrowminded people. They didn't get us. We were allowed to stay out much later at night. That was so cool. I did however never take advantage of that, I never came home totally drunk nor did I throw up at my mother's feet.

People who have also always liked us are our grandparents. And still Grandma and Grandad are our biggest fans. They tape everything which is shown on TV about us on video and buy all the Bravo magazines. We can always depend on them.
At school it was a totally different situation. Tom and me only had one best friend: Andreas. I never wanted to spend any time with any of the other people. They were all smart asses and bootlickers. Apart from that they often called me that (stuck up) guy with his head in the clouds. (aw! poor cutie! omg...)

Part 2

But I didn't care. -and today I couldn’t even care less. I’ve always had just one hobby: Music. And that has remained the same untill today. When I have some time off, I lie on the couch and watch some TV. Or I party. I have once tried horsebackriding (Aw...I wish I could have seen that) even though I am terribly afraid of horses. Luckily nothing happended to me. I haven't had any bad injuries ever. Just the one time Í had to go to the hospital. Nothing spectacular: A mosquito had bit me in my ear. I am allergic to mosquitos.

I thought it was really cool that Tom came to visit me every day, he is really very sweet in his own way. The only thing I don’t really like about him is his macho behaviour. Okay, and his style is also not my thing. But the main thing is he likes it. We have always done as we pleased. I am really amazed when I think about how are life has changed. But we are having fun! However there is a lot more stress than I would have ever imagined. Everyone thinks that when you are a Star, everything automatically comes your way. That is so not true. We have to work very hard for our success.

But its worth it. I wouldn’t want to do anything else but to make music. A lot of people ask us if being successfull has changed us. I don’t think it has. If so our family would have put a stop to that already long time ago. I will always be me. Ambitious and lazy, cheerful and a bit selfish. No matter what other peole say about me. And the most important thing in my life will always be my mother, my brother Tom and our band Tokio Hotel!



It's not recent; but it's interesting and it's from Bravo (april 2006)
