Try Tokio Hotel. They don't have one genre, it's all over. Old stuff was mostly punk-rock, some say emo, but all music is emo being lyrics are emotional. And the band members ain't emo girl, not one bit. They are quite the happy campers but beign Bills style is out there and has the looks of perfection, an angel, some call it emo. Yeah, and they are a German band but they have music in both German and English. YAY! They are JoHoes + plus Miley skank Cyrus famous times 10. That's how famous and popular they are all around the world especially France and Germany:D
Personally i prefer German versions more cuz Bill's voice is more natural and like a lullaby. So check out their songs. They have a shitt load of love ballads that will have ur head spinning. Best ones in German. Youtube has hundreds of translations so no worries. But songs are written by a guy about girls sooo, maybe that wont work. But still an awesome band none the less.
List of their love ballads:
Attention
Automatic/Automatisch
By Your Side/Ich Bin Da
Down On You
Phantomrider/Geisterfahrer (german version tons better)
Sacred/Heilig
Hilf Mir Fliegen (Help Me Fly) - one of my favs!!!!!
In Die Nacht (in the night) - so pretty
In Your Shadow I Can Shine
World Behind My Wall/Lass Uns Laufen
Monsoon/Durch den Monsun (like english one more)
1000 Oceans/1000 Meere
Geh
Ich Bin Nich' Ich
Jung Und Nicht Mehr Jugendfrei
Nach Dir Kommt Nichts
Rette Mich
Love Is Dead/Totgeliebt
Reden
And a ton more, mostly in German
