Over at the guilty pleasures thread, our Matthew Richardson mentioned he loves European pop sung in English by performers who don't have a firm grasp on the language. That's the principal reason I like laughing at Tokio Hotel singles, because these ladie-dudes aren't even writing their own lyrics, and half of them don't make any sense; "I'm automatic for you" sings the lead singer during their new single "Automatic," which judging by the video, is literally about being someone's car. Plus there's some totally rad robot makeout scenes that my dishwasher found ribald and disgusting.
Tokio Hotel's Automatic is due out on Oct. 2.
Tokio Hotel isn't included in my love of poorly worded lyrics.
