FIVE GOLDEN SINGS
NOTEBOOK'S FAVORITE NEWBIES '08
TOKIO HOTELYoung girls have always loved a good boy band. But the days of matching
outfits and coordinated dance moves are over, judging by the German
pop-rock quartet's success this year.
Fronted by 19-year-old twin brothers, the chart-topping,
multiplatinum "teenie" band - as they're known in their native land -
invaded our shores in May with their US debut, "Scream." Which is
pretty much exactly what Goth-lite teen girls (and their younger
sisters) did nonstop at all four of their New York shows.
Whether due to the appeal of androgynous frontman Bill Kaulitz's
porcupine-like hairdo or the band's politely rockin' tunes, they
managed to snag the viewer-awarded best new artist title at this year's
MTV Video Music Awards - beating out heavyweights like Katy Perry,
Jordin Sparks, Taylor Swift and tween queen Miley Cyrus. Seriously.
