I've just been told that I might have said something that pissed some people off, some comment about the USA that I made in an interview. I don’t get it at all: I never said that I hate the USA, it’s a great country and I have a lot of friends in the USA and I feel it is disrespectful to them to say that I hate the whole fucking country and the great people I’ve met there. Don’t misuse my statements!!! Like in every country I think a lot of things go wrong there, I just said that I don’t wanna live over there. So, what’s the point??? I just wanna live at home, in good old Germany. I don’t know why people are so aggressive when it comes to honest statements, I was asked questions in an interview and I replied honestly.

This was not meant to be a political statement. If some asshole wants to misuse my statements for some racist purpose, I get fucking mad. I've been told that people started to discuss about the second world war, about immigrants, about black people... People: This is Rock N Roll!!!! There is no place for racism in my life! We are one fucking world!!! America, Russia, Australia, Europe... I love aspects of Amercia and I love aspects of Brazil, Germany, any country... We are one fucking world. If you misuse my statement for a racists issue: FUCK YOU!!! Now go hug each other! This music is meant to make people come together, not the opposite!!! -Tobias
