You can't know beforehand. The first concert I went to in Holland (was their second concert in Holland) they sang mostly English songs, but the next time they sang mostly German songs (there had been some fanactions).

I think at most it will be a mix of German and English. They know the French fans like the German songs very much as well, because TH are responsible for getting a lot of French girls to choose German in school. So my bet is on that.

Perhaps you could get the German CD as well and find English translations, that way you know what the songs mean anyway and you could try to learn the German lyrics. I'd be happy to translate any song for anyone on here.

Hello,
it's difficult to predict what they're going to do but if I remember well there were only 3 songs in English in October 2007 which were sung along in German by the audience (there are funny videos of Bill raising up his eyebrows when hearing the choruses!) and none in March and June 2008 (they learnt the lesson ;p).
But since then their commercial strategy has changed so they may try a few tracks in English... Anyway, frankly this should not prevent you to come to Bercy, they are so good on stage that you will enjoy the show whatever the language, trust me!
KOMM!!!!!

I think they will sing in german because they know that we prefer their songs in their native language.

sorry if its a bit late but i think they will mostly be singing/speaking in english but because they are aware that a lot of their french fans know german and have actually started taking german in school, they may also be singing/speaking in german in some parts of the show
also, due to their popularity in france, tokio hotels fans have actually risen the number of students choosing to take german as a specialist subject in france
