Durch den Monsun covered by French Group

Tagged With: , ,

Vox Angeli, a grop of six young French men and women put together by Simon Cowell have covered Durch Den Monsun and it is on their new album release. The first half is in German, the second half is in French. Thoughts?

    That was so charming, god those kids are cute. I think they did a really good job, and why is so many fans upset about covers being made? It just shows how loved Tokio Hotel really are. How many covers haven’t been made of other artists. I saw an interview with Dolly Parton once and she said that no matter how horrible any of the covers were, she still felt proud of hearing them, because it was a new interpretation of her songs created by other artists. It’s a compliment, not an insult. And now back to this cover, really well made and so adorable with accent in the german part, and I have to admit that Durch Den Monsun sounds really beautiful in french. :)

    No one can sing Durch Den Monsun like the TOKIO HOTEL.
    It’s very boring the Vox Angeli’s song in german.

    I don’t understand what everyone’s problem is. This song is NOT creepy, nor was the version bad. people just have issues with another band trying to play TH. I think they did an excellent job, and I like the idea of more covers. You should be happy, at least, that a band feels Tokio Hotel is cool enough to cover. I’d love to Cover them, if I had a band. I’d cover all the old German stuff from the original Schrei album, since I’m a girl amnd can hit those notes.
    Loved it Vox Angeli. Keep up with the spectacular work!

    wow that was very interesting (in a good way lol)
    the german beginning was very french in the way that it had a lot of french pronouncing german (if that makes any sense)
    the french ending was very interesting as well all in all ser gut und danke

    @88 I totally agree. I pretty much hated that and stopped listening after like 20 seconds.

    Why mess with perfection? Haha I’m just kidding!

    yeah, i think they were taught to sing the german correctly. cause th speaks a type of slang german with their pronounciation. so i dont think they pronounced the words wrong at all. its just they were using the correct way to speak german not the slang way like th

    They have beautiful voices, and I loved the French part. The German part however, not so much.

    They have beautiful voices!
    I wonder what it would sound like if they had better German pronunciation however? But I have a terrible accent to so I understand how difficult it can be. Not everyone is as great as Bill is as singing different languages perfectly. haha
    I’m so glad that this song is getting more and more recognized. <3

    I think they should have tried the German part with a real German accent- I’m american and spent a lot of time trying to pronounce each word exactly how bill does- it’s possible for anyone!

    At the begining, pronounced alot of the German words wrong. The German part sounded really weird. The French part was better but it was also a little creapy.

    Their German– came off sounding really robotic, but I seriously like the french and their voices with this softer accompaniment. It’s adorably… touching. x3

    These kids gave amazing voices, And I was really surprised by how good the French translation was, they didn’t change it too much, which must have been quiet hard!
    (I think the french accent during the German part was cute!)
    Congrats Vox Angeli ! And of course, rock on Tokio Hotel !

    Really love it. I like the German half better. Wish they did the whole thing in German.

    French part was still really very pretty.

    I’m sorry, but i laughed as soon as I heard the chorus in German. It just doesn’t sound right! I probably couldn’t do any better, but still.

    Overall though…Creeeeepy! But I kinda like it. The French part anyway. And the kids look sweet.

    Oh! Speaking of Monsoon in different languages, there’s a video on YouTube and this girl sings the song in Spanish and it sounds great!
