Der Junge mit der Gitarre
Born in 1976 in Germany, Der Junge mit der Gitarre ("The boy with the guitar") only had a short-lived career which started at the Bizarre Festival's "Speakers Corner" in 1998.
For a couple of years he played at the Bizarre Festival during the breaks, while the stage was being prepared for the next band. In 2002 he had a summer hit with Meer Sehen and released the album Dagegen. He had a chance to go to the "Grand Prix Eurovision de la Chanson" in 2003, but didn't make it through the pre-rounds.
This experience, as well as the hatred from people who had problems with his extremely honest, occasionally sexually explicit lyrics ("Ficken fuers Volk") resulted in a deep disillusionment with the music industry. He released a second album, Im Affekt, but by the end of 2004 he had decided to give up being "the boy with the guitar" - who "isn't Jesus, nor schizophrenic, but just Tobias. And I am not the messiah." (Bin ich Jesus II) Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
