Friday Live – DDM NRJ Radio

It’s still Friday, right? Almost. In parts of the country. Hey, I got distracted today.

Anyway. We’re just about at the deadline for the Durch den Monsun zu Humanoid Challenge, so, here’s a live version of “Durch den Monsun” to wish all of the entrants good luck! This is an acoustic version that was done for on NRJ Radio France.

Creativity – Monsoon on Mario Paint

This may be more Fan Request Creativity than straight-up Fan Creativity, but it’s cool enough to share. Youtuber Friedfischer is a Mario Paint (yes, based on the ’90s Super NES video game) composer who takes popular songs and recreates them in the game by ear. “Monsoon”/”Monsun” was a big request, so here it is!

Durch Den Monsun Zu Humanoid

DDM was the first single that Tokio Hotel released and it is the song that brought them into the spotlight and therefore to all of us! Four years from that historic release we are now waiting for a new single and video from their upcoming album HUMANOID. We thought that while we are waiting for all the new and wonderful HUMANOID stuff we’d go back to the very beginning and take a trip down DDM “Memory Lane.”

So, are you in for a Challenge?

Prize – Original DDM Single, released August 2005 (four winners)

Tokio Hotel – Durch Den Monsun – 2005

Hi,

I found this live performance and thought you would enjoy it.

It’s fun to sort of compare it to the Monsoon EMA performance in 2007, no?

Two Years Tokio Hotel!

On August 15, 2005… that was the day Durch Den Monsun hit.

What a wild ride.

I hope that it continues for many years to come!

*love*
