I love to see your progress in german And im so happy you got the message behind "deutschland" I hope you will stay happy with your content because i for my part love it

[@WilliamLeoKlein]

"Deutschland" was like a history lesson with a very critical view on the many dark and horrifying part from Germany's history. If you read the text and read between the lines you can see this. Also in the Video there was a lot of historical background. After all: it was really criticizing and it should be understood as such.

[@fewelg3743]

One line in "Deutschland" says "will dich lieben und verdammen" which means "want to love and doom you". At almost the end of the Song, he sings about the fact that he can't love Germany even though he's a part of it. Which shows how much work went in to these lines

[@NochSoEinKaddiFan]

Meine Soldaten cuts really deep, when you understand the message and know the actor who plays in the music video. Both the musician and the actor give this song such a melancholic and desperate energy that it absolutely fits the topic. Its about the state you are in when you have been broken up with, everything reminds you of your ex and you have to shut down every little emotion like people are shut down in a totalitarian regeime. Especially fitting because the actor played one of the most tragic and emotional characters in the movie "Die Welle", a disturbing movie showing how easy totalitarian and exclusive society structures form. This song is a masterpiece and Maxim is someone who really gives you lingering emotions long after the song is over, a lot of melancholy wrapped in happy tunes. Good stuff if you are in the mood for some weltschmerz

Damn, that nostalgia hits hard with this one

[@Sky_..Cloud05]

Unheilig is one of the best artists. Unheilig is a band and der graf is the singer you have seen. He sings about the death from his grandmother and more. My mom was going to his last concert. It was such a good time.

[@schrablax6614]

Bye bye by Cro is a song i'm actually performing with my Band at the Gymnasiums Springconcert👌👌🇩🇪

[@hoehere_Gewalt]

I love how James didnt get the numbering of the songs and thought the numbers are part of their title in the beginning

[@doha1303]

I forgot so many beautiful songs from the past, 2010 to 2015 was just my youth in addition to heavy metal♥️

[@doha1303]

Skipped 2016-2019 only heard the old stuff from gzuz and bonez

[@Kratogo]

2016 was the last year with good german music playing in the radio. After that it was only rap and autotune songs. We still have really good german music and artists/bands, but they're not as "mainstream" and popular anymore :/

[@Sayu277]

Mhmm well it's still popular enough to regularly take no1 in the Album Charts, those Bands+Artist just don't chase the Singles anymore i guess

[@kev1n.chrycz]

Geboren um zu leben gibt mir immer noch Gänsehaut

[@j-u-s-t-i-c-e3730]

bushido mades 2022 a really hard song in year 2022 against his enemys it called hmp2- bushido and king sonnyblack listen to it its really good.

[@bestgamting]

that's crazy to hear the old songs. Sido is a lively legend. And mark forster for me too

[@sophiakubbutat6493]

Krass wie der Rap irgendwann die Charts übernommen hat

[@pdabblu]

Vor zwei Tagen wurden deine Video in meine Timeline gespült und ich bin jetzt schon Fan 😂 sehr geile Reaktion

[@thewayofwarrior9113]

if you dont know capital bra, fler and much more are snitchers as well, the do the same thing, the people are just against bushido because he stays loyal to his music style and hits every time place number 1. They are jealous. bushido just snitched because to protect his family. The others talk and snitch to get attention.

[@Peter_Cetera]

Great entertainment, bro! You should repeat it with the 80th and 90th!

[@8enedikt]

Cro is one of the best German singers

[@dominicradosta4781]

I still remember when you was at 50k subs. Great time back then

[@paddycore8985]

Crazy how different music taste can be. I found most of the song rather cr*ppy.😅 Plus songs like „Bros“, „Was du liebe nennst“, etc. I only know because of the metalcore covers by Callejon.🤔😅

[@KrisThroughGlass]

Same here!

[@dif4797]

Same! As a german metalhead I hate most of those songs here

[@mmth2310]

This video was great. What a nostalgic journey 😂

[@thekrone1513]

I love how you go crazy when Deutschrap starts at 2017 hahaha

[@peditatus1]

Halt dich an mir fest Stop me at the Party 😂😂😂 Nice Bro! Made my day.

[@PropperNaughtyGeezer]

Ohne Autotune kann gar keiner heute mehr singen.

[@dif4797]

Kommt ganz drauf an, was man so hört.

[@theonlymaster4887]

Dude these are some major classics

[@CavHDeu]

2015->2022 geht garnicht bis auf Rammstein

[@travelgurljojo3442]

I knew from 2010: • number 6 (Pflaster - Ich & Ich) • number 4 (Disco pogo) • number 3 (halt dich an mir fest - revolverheld) • number 2 (monsta - culcha candela) • number 1 (geboren um zu leben - unheilig)
