There will be probably German people better suited giving some deeper meaning behind the song to me it addresses the long history of Germany and the duality Germans have towards their country and history whether to feel proud or ashamed (Germans are still very aware of their role in recent European history). Anyway, all of their stuff is lyrically very layered and poetic in nature. (well most of it ahahaha)

As a fan of Nightwish, i have been listening Rammstein for equal amount of time, and that started in early 2000's. Real fans know what good music is.

@@xxJOKeR75xx German history is a great story. From all kinds of small states to a large, powerful state. There's a whole story behind that. With all the growing pains that come with it. Many Dutch people have German roots. The Dutch and Germans also share a lot of history. If you look at the language you only notice a greater difference when the borders of the country became clearer. The old Dutch and the old German were much more alike. Even near the border between the Netherlands and Germany, people still speak almost the same language (or dialect) to this day. Germany has raped our country under the leadership of that damned fake German from Austria. Germany is forgiven, but it is not forgotten. What happened then was a kind of incest. A brother nation was terrorized. Anyway, everything is fine now between the Netherlands and Germany. We leave behind us the black page that historically lasted only 5 years. The younger generations get along just fine. Both countries work well together in many areas. And from an economic point of view, the Netherlands is already a province of Germany :-)

Hi, I'm from Germany. A big part of the German history in one video. The black woman as Germania. Germania is the personification of the German nation. It isn't and wasn't a goddess or Joan of Arc. The glass coffin: It is Little Snow White from the Grimm-fairytales....and from their own video "Sonne". Only with black skin and in space. The piano song at the end is the song "Sonne", too. The words "Germania Magna" at the beginning are a Roman name for the area of Germany, that wasn't conquered by the Roman Empire at that time. Germania Superior and Germania Inferior were the Roman conquered areas (Roman provinces) of Germany. The line in this song "So jung und doch so alt" (So young and yet so old) means: Germany as a unified state is very young. A unified German nation is only existing from 1871 onwards. Before that year of unification Germany was made of countless, little mini-states and the people identified first and foremost as Prussians, Hessians, Saxons etc, etc, etc. and only in a second line of thought they had a lose sense of being somehow Germans, too, as a kind of unifying second identity. So the area & the landscape where the Germans are living and the Germans themselves as a people...are thousands of years old. But only recently, in 1871, there was a unified Germany as one single state. So Germany as a unified state is very young...and at the same time it is thousands of years old. The battle of the Teutoburg forest against the Romans (and Rammstein as Roman soldiers and Germans alike). That battle is of ABSOLUTE importance for the German history. The hanged bodies in the trees were the beaten Roman soldiers, who were gruesome sacrificed to the Germanic gods...and were partly nailed to the trees. The Varus-(Teutoburg)-Battle was already in 9 AD. In 16 AD were the vengeance campaigns of commanding field general Germanicus under Emperor Tiberius Augustus. Therefore we see here the arrival of the Roman troops of Germanicus and they are watching their dead comrades hanging in the trees or getting their heads chopped off (for nailing them to the trees). In reality the Romans under Germanicus found only the bones of the Varus army in the various ways they were slaughtered, sacrificed and displayed at the trees. Slaves were liberated even decades after the battle. After the scenes with the Romans we saw the Hindenburg Zeppelin disaster (the burning Zeppelin in the background). The moustaches and clothing from the fight scene are from WWI and post WWI years. From the working class people in WWI and the roaring 20's. In the WWII years later on this kind of big bushy moustache was already out of fashion. The falling banknotes in the prison are not about corruption. That scene is about the hyper-inflation of the 1920's, that took away the savings of the Germans and left them in deep poverty and desperation. One had to pay a loaf of bread with a handcart full of nearly worthless banknotes back then and it hit the German people deep down inside and in their souls. Especially the poor ones and the simple workers. The V2 rocket (first manmade object in space) as technical triumph of the German spirit...and at the same time the killing of the concentration camp prisoners in the bunker factories below the mountains during the production of that rocket. This scene in the video could be a representation of a very specific concentration camp. It was "Mittelbau-Dora" below the Kohnstein mountain. A mixture between a big, huge bunker factory for V1 and V2 rockets and a concentration camp. The concentration camp inmates had several different markings for different kinds of convicts and their "crimes" sown to their chests, like it was in reality, too. A pink triangle for homosexuals, the star of David for Jews and two of them were marked with the double-triangles for Jehovas Whitnesses. The book burnings of the Nazis and the burning of the witches of the church. In the same scene with the book burning there is EVEN MORE going on. The cooperation of the church with the Nazis, when the priest with the cross embraces the Nazi SA-man. The scene with the sign with the Hammer and a pair of compasses in a circle of wheat is the sign of the GDR (DDR). The socialst German state in the east that existed before the German reunification. Therefore it was Karl Marx in the background in the scene with the tank (not the scene at the concentration camp). The scene with Rammstein wielding guns (the pumpgun) and taking Germania hostage was about leftwing terrorism of the 1970's. The terrorists were called the RAF (Rote Armee Fraktion). My interpretation of the red scanner-like beams: There are two different kinds of beams. The massive straight red light beam that goes up into the heavens AND there were those smaller, thinner "scanner" beams. Aliens (or humans from the future) are scanning the whole German history. Like some real scientists are scanning and excarvating ancient Mexican or Egyptian statues, for example. The massive red light beam is the red ribbon of time that ties together all the historical events. PS: As for the dogs: Germans are fanatical dog lovers. We are a dog-owner nation. The dog is a firm part of Germany. PPS: They didn't eat the body of the woman and her inner organs, even if it really looked that way. They were eating the national dish of Germany, that was put on the body of the black woman: Sauerkraut, Kassler & sausages. In my opinion it symbolizes the church eating itself fat on the goods and values and food of Germany during the simple people (farmers, simple workers etc) lived a long time in a kind of hell of poverty and serfdom (the red fetish area below the table with Germania on it). But that eating scene could indeed have a double meaning. It could represent the 30 years war, that was fought for religious reasons and depopulated large areas of Germany. It forced the people to commit canibalism because nobody was there anymore to produce food. Except the fat, wealthy people of the church, of course. They were still able to eat enough. Only the simple people at the bottom (farmers etc) died from hunger and had to fight and die in that war. The 30 years war was the biggest catastrophe in Germany until WWI happened. PPPS: The short scene with the dogs and their gas masks = WWI, where in reality animals (messenger dogs & horses) AND soldiers were wearing gas masks, too. PPPPS: The puppies at the end are Leonberger dogs. The Leonbergers nearly went extinct during WWI and WWII. PPPPPS: The black woman in the prison was dressed in a Prussian uniform with a Prussian helmet. Till sings the famous, often misinterpreted, line of the "Deutschlandlied" (Song of the Germans), that is not forbidden in Germany but simply isn't sung anymore in our modern national anthem. Till sings in his version the line "Deutschland über allen" (Germany above everybody) What is a BIG change to the real line in the orginal Deutschlandlied-song. In the original Deutschlandlied song it is written as "Deutschland über alles" (Germany above everything). The real, whole line of that old Deutschlandlied goes "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles. Über alles in der Welt" (Germany, Germany above everything. Above everything in the world). This line is often misinterpreted by many people as chauvinism and as a looking down upon all other countries on this planet. But that is wrong and not many people know about that in Germany and elsewhere. The writer of that famous line didn't meant it in a chauvinistic way. When that song was written, Germany was divided into umphteenth mini-states, what made Germany relative powerless and defenseless. Therefore the task of German unification was the goal above any other goal for all Germans (at least the writer of the song meant it that way). So the main goal for all Germans had to be the united Germany. The goal of "(united) Germany above everything else". That was, how that line was meant by the writer of the song. The line isn't forbidden, like many people wrongly think. It's simply not sung anymore and not part of the official anthem of modern Germany anymore. This has NOT its reason in the seemingly chauvinist meaning of "Deutschland über alles", like many people wrongly think. This whole stanza of the Deutschlandlied isn't sung anymore, because in other parts of the stanza are borders and landscapes mentioned, that aren't German borders and landscapes anymore. We want to live in peace with the people and countries, who are now living in those former German lands and therefore we don't sing about those old borders and landscapes anymore. It has nothing to do with the "Deutschland über alles" line in that stanza, like many people wrongly are thinking. Finally: The scenes I'm now talking about are pretty dark and low light. The WWII submarine in the submarine bunker during the astronauts are walking by with the glass coffin. I think, the choice of the black woman as main actress was made, because: a) it makes any accusations of racism and fascism against Rammstein useless b) she represents one colour of the German flag and she is wearing the rest of the colours of our German flag as makeup and jewellery and clothes on her body: Black, Red and Gold c) it provokes many people EVEN MORE 😄

A song saying “Deutschland über allen” that was a mega hit in Poland played on not only rock by also general radio stations. That about sums up how brilliant Rammstein is. Music wise, lyric wise, political wise. I mean Poland and Germany have probably the biggest beef there ever was due to WWII. And also now have a totally open border due to the European Union. It’s hard for bands to keep up in this weird world, Rammstein manages to do it, a take on German history that offends neither Germans or neighbors. Art…

Rammstein are really a thing to see live, BUT they also have very well produced official music videos (especially this video). Some are really funny, some creepy, some full of melancholy, some artsy, some art and some are filled with pure energy. Some are later referenced in other videos. The following 4 are their most recent ones, the others below those 4 are listed in a somewhat chronological order. You can start with the most recent ones if you like, but for the others below it can be beneficial to not skip around too much because some reference earlier videos. The 4 most recent ones: - Zeit (another masterpiece, may or may not hit harder for not-so-young folks) - Angst (how fear can corrupt a society) - ZickZack (very funny, about beauty standards etc) - Dicke Titten (also very funny) And below this are the older ones: - Du riechst so gut (98) - Engel - Du hast - Stripped (pure Art, Depeche Mode cover with Leni Riefenstahl material) - Sonne (funny) - Ich will (about sensationalism/the media, references a bunch of videos) - Amerika (funny, but also a reaction to the USA after 9/11) - Feuer frei (parts from the movie triple X, which featured Rammstein) - Mein Teil (artsy, creepy-ish) - Ohne dich (heartbreaking story) - Keine Lust (very funny) - Rosenrot - Haifisch (funny, references Sonne, Amerika, Ohne dich, Keine Lust, Du hast, etc) - Mann gegen Mann (naked dudes) - Pussy (very funny, but basically porn in the uncensored version) - Mein Herz brennt - Mein Herz brennt Piano version - Mein Land (very funny) - Ausländer (very funny) - Radio (funny)

There is no band like Rammstein on the planet, trust me. And what next? Well, it's a hard question. You will get many recommendations in the comments, so choose any.

PS: KZbin didn't allow me to integrate this information into the bigger text (above) for unknown reasons, therefore I'm posting it here: The troops, who smashed the Jewish shops during the Kristallnacht (not shown in the video) were SA (Sturmabteilung) in brown uniform and not the later SS (Schutzstaffel) in the black uniform. The SA did all the dirty work at the beginning of the Nazi rise to power...until the "Night of the long knives", an inner-Nazi power struggle, happened. The head of the SA (Ernst Röhm) was killed and from then on the SA was turned more and more into the SS under Himmler. The book burnings were part of the early Nazi years, too, and were done by the SA, too. One can see the SA burning the books and Till is watching it in a brown SA uniform. Both, Kristallnacht and book burnings were different things and happened at different times. The book burnings happened over a longer timespan at different locations at different times during the Kristallnacht was one big "event" that happened at one single day. Kristallnacht means "Crystal Night" and was called that way, because the smashed shop windows of the Jewish shops looked like thousands of crystals on the ground. But in the Rammstein video I've only seen the book burnings. PPS: The two beer drinking soldiers to the left side of the table, where Germania is lying on and where the priests are eating Sauerkraut & Sausages from her body, are not French soldiers and they aren't representing the French revolution. Those two beer drinking soldiers are Prussian soldiers and they are emphasizing the importance of Prussia for the German history. As far as I could see: They were from the era of Friedrich der Große (The Old Fritz), who was of extraordinary importance for German history. Amongst many other achievements he was the one, who brought the potato to Prussia and Germany. That saved many Germans from hunger and the potato became one of the most beloved foods in Germany on that way.

My favorite is Sonne. That said, most any of their official videos will be fantastic as they tend to all have very high production values and their live videos (especially Paris) really show their outstanding stage presence and amazing technical artistry. Rammstein is one of those "must see/bucket list" bands. If you have not gone to a show, you can't comprehend what you are missing.

Instant subscribe from me 💚 I'm looking forward to more Rammstein from you, and seeing what else your channel might bring me! My recommendation for a next Rammstein song would be the piano version of Mein Herz Brennt, which is (along with Deutschland) one of the most emotionally powerful pieces of music I know. But any other song from them would be great too. Thanks for your reaction, I enjoyed my time with you two! 💚

Rhomm-Shtyne, Wolfman. One of the biggest bands in the world...still packing stadiums w a set that takes upwards of 60hrs to build b4 the band plays! Best know for their exciting live shows, full of pyrotechnics, they also have many stunning original videos, like the mini movie you just watched. Did you see the big angel wings near the end of the video? See Engel, live at Madison Square Garden, to see those wings in their original conception. Also must see Is Du Hast live in Paris. Get through a few, and I'll keep feeding you suggestions. I worked on their 1st 3 American tours, and have seen them 17xs...18 in Sept! This is an amazing band! The band uses techno keyboards in just the right dose, and has 2 guitarists, who play in sync, creating a fat wall of sound. Christophe on drums, is relentless and reliable. Till Lindeman's lyrics are often meant with duality. He is a published Poet. Rammstein has more than 2 decades of outstanding work for you to discover...but warning...they write songs about some controvetsial subjects, so its not always a great idea to translate the lyrics.

Some history and context to the video: The first is the battle in Teutoburg where the Romans were massacred, hung and chased through the forest. Hence those hanging from the trees. The Romans went back and found skulls tied to trees. Then you have the Holy Roman Empire with the knights fighting. After WWII you have the terrorists who were initially paid by the CIA to disrupt Communist Russia. That can be found under the Operation Gladio in Italy where it was far right nationals being paid by the USA. It went pair shaped and those terrorists went on to hijack planes in the 1970's. So enjoy researching if you wish to.

The whole Video will understand only Historians and Germans and these people also have to watch the video several times. The song is about the ambivalent relationship of Rammstein and many Germans to their country, because of the violent and cruel history with extensive human crimes ("red line of violence through german history"), especially in recent history. Therefore the video features various events from German history, including Roman times, the Middle Ages, witch hunting and burning, Protestant Reformation, the November Revolution, the "Golden Twenties" and hyperinflation, Nazi book burnings, the Hindenburg disaster, the First and Second World Wars, the Holocaust, the Weimar Republic, the Red Army Fraction (violent anti-capitalist terror alliance of young people and students against Nazis in high state and economy positions in post-war Germany), and the division of the country into West and East Germany including the Uprising June 17 in East Germany. The black woman represents Germany and one of the Colors of the German flags, sometimes as a victim, but mostly as a perpetrator. With her black skin she is also a provocation to all stupid racists A lot of people do not understand the scenes with the dogs. This breed of dogs are not German Shepards, but Leonberger. This breed of dog narrowly escaped extinction during the First and also Second World Wars and is symbolic of the German people, whose existence was also strongly threatened in those wars (Morgenthau-Plan) - both now have a second existential chance, just like the new German democratic constitution, which in future must be protected as strongly as if it were under quarantine (Judges in red robes, Rammstein members in protective suits with the dogs) The Holocaust was for this reason the greatest human crime because it was the first industrially organized mass murder in human history, by a country that was culturally at its highest point at this time and called itself the country of poets and thinkers. But it is precisely the high cultural and scientific level of Germany that unfortunately caused others to be viewed as subhuman who can be killed without pity, just like animals. Seeing other people as inferior has always brought a lot of suffering to people Rammstein is one of the most famous metal bands and are living legends with the same line-up for nearly 30 years. They are a german band and are considered the best live band in the world, especially when it comes to showmenship, pyro and fire. Above all, Rammstein uses pyro quite differently than all other bands. Rammstein's music is a mixture of techno (electronic music) and metal (= industrial metal), although Rammsteins origins are in punk music. Rammstein concerts are a life time experience that you will never forget. Their videos are art but also often controversial. Rammstein also refers to classical German literature, e.g. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's. Several of their songs are related to controversial and taboo subjects such as sadomasochism, homosexuality, intersexuality, incest, pedophilia, necrophilia, cannibalism, pyromania, religion and sexual violence. Also several of their songs are allegedly inspired by real-life events or politics. Rammstein lyrics are very deep and are also often used in school and universities around the world to learn German. There are people who learn German only because of Rammstein. Rammstein fans are considered to be the craziest and most fanatical fans in the world. In concerts from the hardcore fans all over the world it is expected that you can sing along with the German lyrics even if you don't speak German.

suesue and wolfman, if you are interested what the story is behind, me, being myself german, then look at some wonderful comments which describes the history behind. beyond the music watch the colors, they are mostly black, red and golden. this is the color of the german flag, so, in any second, there is a meaning.
