New Tokio Hotel Music Video – Automatic

September 5th, 2009 by Kelly



I’ve heard the name Tokio Hotel mentioned a few times, so when I heard they had a new music video, I thought I’d check it out. Three and a half minutes (and a lot of androgynous eyeliner later) I’m  feeling a little sick to my stomach thinking about the budget required to make this piece of trash.

Is this awful? Cuz this looks awful to me. Like, This is Spinal Tap awful– with robots making out  in a giant, post-apocalyptic slinky dump instead of dwarfs dancing around tiny Stonehenge.

But then, I’m not exactly in the loop, as the kids say.

    Tokyo Hotel has been around for years, it was shit, it’s shit and it will be shit until the (happy) day they decide to disband. Oh, why Germany, oh why. The whole of Europe hates you even a bit more now.

    I love Tokio Hotel! This video wasn’t that great but the song is really good. I’m sooo excited for their new album in October.

    I liked ‘monsoon’ and thats really the only other song I have ever heard from TH. This is why I dont watch music videos, they are usually incredibly stupid.

    i spent the whole video trying to figure out why the shim was dancing like it had to pee and why they kept using the same close up shot of it driving…maybe to save money for the shots of horny robots?

    Very lame.

    i’m from austria and lots of us hate them here…not more different than what “barf” said..^^ Luckily the TH-hype is pretty much gone, so i don’t have to listen to them or see them anymore 24/7
    they’re such weirdos and it’s completely incomprehensible to me that they actually hit it big in the U.S. – or did they ?

    Didn’t make it past the chorus. Sucked. It’s like Fall Out Boy but different boys.

    The video stinks, the song is alright, but not what you’d expect.
    They dress and look kind of different but their songs (listened to several on You Tube) are rather bland. Not impressed.

    I thought people in Europe liked them.

    Blah! Whatever. I still like them. :)

    Let’s face it. Name three good bands that Germany has given the world in the past 30 years? They make fucking good schnitzel, but when it comes to music, they blew their music wad on Classical. After that; no thanks, fraulein.

    ENOUGH, PEOPLE! Are your lives soooo miserable and difficult that you have to slam a band who is actually pretty different (in a GOOD way) and loves and appreciate their fans? I’m sorry, but you must be as smart as Kanye Shit for Brains West if you think that they are bad. And that isn’t saying much, if you didn’t get that little itty bitty jab. They sing against suicide, children disappearing, lovers becoming enemies, etc. Name TEN other bands who do all that, geniuses. So go pout in your corners and continue listening to screamo and/or hip-hop. Because rapping about the bitches and da money is SO unique and original.
