In questo momento sono davvero inca! Solo 10 min fà avevo terminato la mia recensione su "Scream" l'ultimo album dei Tokio Hotel, ho cliccato su -avanti- e cosa mi vedo apparire davanti???? "Errore di sistema: Windows Internet Explorer sarà chiuso". Ed ecco che il lavoro di circa 45 min è andato totalmente perduto. Quindi, visto che la mia voglia di scrivere recensione è andata a farsi fottere, vorrei rapidamente elencare le caratteristiche di questo ultimo album della band rivelazione tedesca.
"Scream" è il primo album totalmente in Inglese, realizzato dal giovanissimo (classe '89 - '87) gruppo tedesco dei Tokio Hotel. Posso comprendere che a primo avviso, una band tedesca composta per lo più da ragazzini, lasci più di qualche incertezza. Però vi posso assicurare che questo gruppo non è proprio niente male. Uno stile forte, deciso ma al contempo anche delicato ed in alcuni tratti emozionante. Qualcuno (in qualche commento letto non ricordo bene dove) li ha paragonati ai Finley, a causa del loro Pop-Rock un pò troppo "dolce". Vi posso dire una cosa: de gustibus permettendo, tra i Tokio Hotel ed i Finley c'è un abisso che molti amano definire rock. Questo gruppo è davvero incredibile: trasmettono emozioni ma anche adrenalina pura con canzoni come "Scream", "Monsoon", "Ready Set Go" e "Love Is Dead". A tratti possono anche emozionare con canzoni calme ma al contempo meravigliose come "Forgotten Children" e "By Your Side" che a mio parere è anche la canzone più bella dell'album.
Per concludere tra le note negative, posso solo far notare una leggera mancanza di originalità che però spero potrà essere colmata dall'esperienza e dal tempo. A questo gruppo ho dato tre stelline, sperando che l'attuale rivelazione possa trasformarsi in qualcosa di più....
ps: il cantante però dovrebbe cambiare look, fino a che non ho scoperto che il suo nome era Bill, ero convinto che fosse una ragazza.....

01 Scream (03:18)
You get up and somebody tells you where to go to
When you get there everybody's telling you what to do
Thank you, it's been another bloody Monday
And no one is asking what you want in any way
Nein, nein, nein, nananana nein
Nein, nein, nein, nananana nein
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Scream...scream it out loud
Watch out, stay away, there're lurking
Obsess you, they're always working
Promising everything you never ask for
And one day it'll be too late
And we're back for more
Nein, nein, nein, nananana nein
Nein, nein, nein, nananana nein
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Scream...
Back to zero, the time is about to come
Let you know, you're not just anyone
Scream, scream, scream it out loud
Scream Scream, scream, scream, scream it out loud
The time's about to come
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Scream! – Till you feel it
Scream! – Till you believe it
Scream! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud!
Shut up!
No! – Can't to feel it
No! – Can't to believe it
No! – And when it hurts you
Scream it out loud
No, no, no, no, no, no...
Scream it out loud!
Scream...
02 Ready, Set, Go! (03:34)
We were running though the town
Our senses had been drowned
No place we haven't been before
We learned to live and then
Our freedom came to an end
We have to break down this wall
Too young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
Ready, set, go
It's time to run
The sky is changing, we are one
Together we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around
We are looking back again
Our loneliness and pain
Never been so wide awake
Breathe slowly in and out
Somewhere beyond the clouds
I can see the morning break
Too young to live a lie
Look into my eyes
Ready, set, go
It's time to run
The sky is changing, we are one
Together we can make it while the world is crashing down
Don't you turn around
Leave it all behind you now
The final wall is breaking down
We are what it's all about
Nothing can stop us now
I'll promise you right know
I'll never let you down
Ready, set, go
It's time to run
The sky is changing, we are one
Together we can make it
While the world is crashing down
Don't turn around
Ready, set, go
It's time to run
The sky is changing, we are one
Together we can make it
While the world is crashing down
Don't turn around
Don't you turn around
Don't you turn around
03 Monsoon (04:01)
I'm staring at a broken door
There's nothing left here anymore.
My room is cold
It's making me insane
I've been waiting here so long
But now the moment seems to've come
I see the dark clouds coming up again
Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world
To the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm
Into the blue
And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
Through the monsoon
Just me and you
A half moon's fading from my sight
I see your vision in its light
But now it's gone and left me so alone
I know I have to find you now
Can hear your name, I don't know how
Why can't we make this darkness feel like home
Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world
To the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm
Into the blue
And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon
Hey
Hey
I'm fighting all this power
coming in my way
Let it take me straight to you
I'll be running night and day
I'll be with you soon
Just me and you
We'll be there soon
So soon
Running through the monsoon
Beyond the world
To the end of time
Where the rain won't hurt
Fighting the storm
Into the blue
And when I lose myself I think of you
Together we'll be running somewhere new
And nothing can hold me back from you
Through the monsoon
Through the monsoon
Just me and you
Through the monsoon
Just me and you
05 Don't Jump (04:08)
On top of the roof
The air is so cold and so calm
I say your name in silence
You don't want to hear it right now
The eyes of the city
Are counting the tears falling down
Each one a promise of everything
You never found
I scream in to the night for you
Don't make it true
Don't jump
The lights will not guide you through
They're deceiving you
Don't jump
Don't let memories go
Of me and you
The world is down there
Out of view
Please don't jump
You open your eyes
But you can't remember what for
The snow falls quietly
You just can't feel it no more
Somewhere up there
You lost yourself in your pain
You dream of the end
To start all over again
I scream in to the night for you
Don't make it true
Don't jump
The lights will not guide you through
They're deceiving you
Don't jump
Don't let memories go
Of me and you
The world is down there
Out of view
Please don't jump
Don't jump
I don't know how long
I can hold you so strong
I don't know how long
Just take my hand
Give it a chance
Don't jump
I scream in to the night for you
Don't make it true
Don't jump
The lights will not guide you through
They're deceiving you
Don't jump
Don't let memories go
Of me and you
The world is down there
Out of view
Please don't jump
Don't jump
And if all that can't hold you back
I'll jump for you
06 On the Edge (04:07)
It's getting light outside
She is still there
But no one cares
They said no happy birthday yesterday
Without her
Do you want to see if
You're flying through
The night
This gift is what you'll need
You're gonna be alright
Eyes closed and fall
The first time on the edge
The scars will stay forever
Side to side with death
The moment that feels better
Darkness and light
Are blinding her sight
She's not coming back
It's getting light outside
She cannot sleep
'Cause time stood still
Someone's hand is touching her
She has no will
Each time when it hurts
She just feels so alone
She doesn't care at all
Her memories have
Long gone
Eyes closed and fall
And closer to the edge
The scars will stay forever
Side to side with death
The moment that feels better
Darkness and light
Are blinding her sight
She's not coming back
She shuts the door
She longs for more
And more
And more
She shuts the door
She longs for more
And more
And more
Just once more
Everyone is watching her
Her arms are so sore
But she doesn't care
Anymore
And falling from the edge
The scars will stay forever
Side to side with death
The moment that feels better
Darkness and light
Are blinding her sight
She's not coming back
Not coming back
The sky is casting over
Her last wish
Stays unsaid
08 Break Away (03:24)
I've got other plans today
Don't need permission anyway
Cause here I'm standin' here after all
With my back against the wall
Against the wall
I put all blame on you
Bout me and all that I went trough
You don't give me any choice
Now I'm gonna make some noise
Make some noise
I feel so claustrofobic here,
Watch out now you better disappear.
you can't Make me stay!
I'll break away!
Break away
I'm warning you don't follow me
I won't miss you can you see
What you wanted, I didn't work
Go on diggin in the dirt
In the dirt
Cold sweat on your brow
Now you can hear me shout
Your world is about to distruct
Cause now I'm gonna pull the plug
Pull the plug
I feel so claustrofobic here,
Watch out now you better disappear.
you can't Make me stay!
I'll break away!
Break away
No more counting all your lies
No more waiting for your goodbye
It's too late
Much too late
You are like a bitter pill
That I had to take against my will
I feel so claustrofobic here,
Watch out now you better disappear.
you can't Make me stay!
I'll break away!
Break away
I feel so claustrofobic here,
Watch out now you better disappear.
you can't Make me stay!
I'll break away!
Break away
Break away
09 Rescue Me (03:49)
This used to be our secret
Now i'm hiding here alone
Can't help but read our names on the wall
And wash them off the stone
I trusted you in every way
But not enough to make you stay
Turn around
I've lost my ground
Come and rescue me
I'm burning, can't you see
Come and rescue me
Only you can set me free
Come and rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me
You lied when we were dreaming
Our crying was just fake
I wish you could deny it
Hearing today
My s.o.s. on radio
The only chance to let you know
What i feel
Can you hear
Come and rescue me
I'm burning, can't you see
Come and rescue me
Only you can set me free
Come and rescue me
Rescue me
You and me
You and me
You and me
The walls are coming closer
My senses fade away
I'm haunted by your shadow
I reach to feel your faith
You're not here
Are you here
Come and rescue me
Rescue me
Come and rescue me
I'm burning, can't you see
Come and rescue me
Only you can set me free
Come and rescue me
Rescue me
Rescue me
10 Final Day (03:13)
And now we're here again
Up on your roof so high
The whole world can just go to hell
For all I care tonight
I can feel the end is near
It all has come, as we had feared
And if our final day has come
Let's pretend to carry on
And if the end has now begun
Live on (Live on)
Live on (Live on)
I just can't believe the day has come
When our clocks stand still
The horizon seems to disappear
And all our dreams are unfulfilled
I can feel the end is near
It all has come, as we had feared
And if our final day has come
Let's pretend to carry on
And if the end has now begun
Live on (Live on)
Live on (Live on)
This is our final day
This is our final day
This is the final thunder
Up on your roof so high
Let's stay and wait for the morning
Even if it's not in sight
Has our ending just begun?
Don't care, pretend to carry on
And if our final day has come
Let's pretend to carry on
And if the end has now begun
Live on (Live on)
Live on (Live on)
And if our final day has come
Let's pretend to carry on
And if you'll stay we'll always
Live on (Live on)
Live on (Live on)
This is the final thunder
Up on your roof so high
Let's stay and wait for the morning
Live on (Live on)
Live on
This is our final day
12 By Your Side (04:22)
No one knows how you feel
No one there you'd like to see
The day was dark & full of pain
You write "help" with your own blood
'Cause hope is all you've got
You open up your eyes but nothing's changed
I don't want to 'cause you trouble
Don't want stay too long
I just came here to say to you
Turn around i am here
If you want it's me you'll see
Doesn't count, far or near
I can hold you when you reach for me
Your life is meaningless
Your diary full of trash
It's so hard to get along with empty hands
You're looking for the rainbow
But it died not long ago
It tried to shine just for you until the end
I don't want to 'cause you trouble
Don't want stay too long
I just came here to say to you
I am by your side
Just for a little while
Turn around, i am here
If you want it's me you'll see
Doesn't count, far or near
I can hold you when you reach for me
If the world makes you confused
And your senses you seem to lose
If the storm doesn't wanna diffuse
And you just don't know what you to do
Look around I am here
Doesn't count far or near
I am by your side
Just for a little while
Turn around!, Turn around
I am here
Turn around!
Doesn't count far or near
Turn around!
If you want it's me you'll see
Turn around!
I can hold you when you reach for me
Turn around
I am here
Doesn't count far or near
I am by your side
Just for a little while
We'll make it if we try...

La loro esibizione live mi ha permesso di apprezzare il loro nuovo lavoro, intitolato "Scream" (forse perchè è la reazione della gente davanti alla copertina...).
quando la nota della canzone è troppo alta, evidentemente ben consapevole dei suoi limiti, decide di lasciar cantare il pubblico!
Di Dany94
Questi adolescenti hanno anche ricevuto premi per la loro "bravura", ma purtroppo oggi si sono raggiunti livelli assurdi.
"Scream" è un insieme di pop song molto poco valide, ... priva di sentimento, ... scritta per favorire il business musicale.
