After Bill Kaulitz’s participation in a children’s Star Search in 2003 at age thirteen (which he lost in the quarter-final), he was discovered by music producer Peter Hoffmann. Devilish changed their name to Tokio Hotel: “Tokio” is the German spelling of the Japanese city Tokyo, due to a love of the city, and “Hotel” due to their constant touring and living in hotels.
Soon after Sony BMG took them under contract, Hoffmann hired David Jost and Pat Benzner into the team of creators and authors, and had them give the teens instruction on songwriting and instrument playing; most of the songs of the first album were written by Hoffmann, Jost and Benzer (including the singles Scream and Rescue Me which were completely written by them), only the single Unendlichkeit was written completely by Tokio Hotel themselves. However, shortly before release of their first album, Sony terminated their contract. In 2005, Universal Music Group took Tokio Hotel under contract and developed a marketing plan. The band has now become one of the biggest acts originating from Germany, The bands success has reached The United States, Mexico, Puerto Rico, France and various other countries.
Tokio Hotel released the album "Humanoid" in Europe And the United States, With translations in German and English.

Tokio Hotel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It is finally true
All my scars are open
You met somebody new
Our mission is complete
I guess it is time
My heart is wide open
Any minute, any minute, any minute, any minute I go
All it takes is a shot and some love imagination in you
We will never be the same, but we are not coming home again
We don't know, where we go
Let's get high
The dream machine takes all of us
Come on board and leave the rest behind
Let's get high, high, high
Let's get high, high, high
There's no resistance
I hang at the beach
No comitments
No need to remember me
Any minute, any minute, any minute, any minute I go
All it takes is a shot and some love imagination in you
We will never be the same, but when I'm coming home again
We don't know, where we go
Let's get high
The dream machine takes all of us
Come on board and leave the rest behind
Let's get high, high, high
Let's get high, high, high
(High)
Let's get high
(High)
High, high, high
Your wild heart
The age of your soul
Is what makes you beautiful
Is what makes you beautiful
You can still be what you wanted to be
Don't believe what they say
Don't believe what they say
Let's get high, high
The angel in your soul
Is what makes you beautiful
What makes you beautiful
(I can feel the sky) you can still be what you wanted to be
Don't believe what they say
Don't believe what they say
(High)
Let's get high
(High)
High, high, high
The lyrics to Tokio Hotel's song "Dream Machine" depict a sense of liberation and personal growth after a break-up. The first verse expresses a state of emotional vulnerability and acceptance of the end of a relationship. The singer acknowledges that their scars are still visible, but their ex-partner has already moved on. This realization marks a turning point in their journey.
The chorus emphasizes the concept of leaving the past behind and embracing a new beginning with an uncertain destination. The repetition of "any minute" suggests that the singer is ready to take a chance at any moment. They believe that with a combination of determination and imagination, they can create their own happiness and transform their lives. The phrase "We will never be the same, but we are not coming home again" alludes to the idea that they will undergo significant changes during this journey, but they have no intention of returning to their previous state.
The second verse highlights the absence of resistance and obligations in the singer's life. They find solace in the simplicity of hanging out at the beach, free from commitments and obligations. This could symbolize a need for personal space and self-discovery. The longing for escape and the unknown is reiterated, indicating a desire to explore new possibilities and embrace uncertainty.
The repeated phrase "Let's get high" can be interpreted metaphorically. It represents a craving for a euphoric state of mind and a sense of freedom from the constraints of daily life. The dream machine mentioned in the chorus is a metaphor for an escape from reality and an invitation for others to join this liberating journey. "Let's get high" serves as an anthem for those seeking a release from their burdens and limitations. It encourages listeners to embrace their individuality and not conform to societal expectations.
The closing segment of the song emphasizes self-acceptance and the importance of staying true to oneself. The reference to a "wild heart" and the age of the soul implies that one's authenticity and unique qualities are what truly make them beautiful. The repeated refrain "Don't believe what they say" underscores the message of not allowing others' judgments or criticisms to define one's self-worth. The song concludes with a final call to embrace liberation and soar to new heights.
In summary, "Dream Machine" celebrates the journey of self-discovery and personal growth after a break-up. It encourages listeners to embrace change, let go of the past, and follow their dreams. With themes of liberation, escapism, self-acceptance, and embracing the unknown, the lyrics reflect a desire to break free from constraints and live a life filled with authenticity and fulfillment.

This album is gold
I VR
@Orinta Ker also I forgot to mention Dream machine is entirely created by them without other people, unlike the previous albums, so I guess this is the real Tokio Hotel creativelywise according to Bill and Toms taste, because I know gustav and georg are not involved directly in the creating process. They are also 30, they create independently and feel happy, we can only feel happy for them too
I VR
@Orinta Ker Yes, my favorite album of theirs is Humanoid I just love the sound and the entire concept, also Scream too, their golden years. But I really like Kings of Suburbia and Dream Machine because I have never heard better electronic music than these two albums. They are gold. You are right, some people just want to stick in 2007 forever. That would be awesome, it was a great time but life is not static and people grow up and change.
Orinta Ker
@I VR agree. i literally don't get it. their old music was gold, new music too. they have no skips, and every song has a soul and story in it which u can feel while listening. guess not everyone is growing up and changing, some are still stuck in 2007
I VR
Someone finally said it! I don't get why people hate them so much because they changed their music style.. You cannot expect them to sound the same 15 years after the start of their career
