Rammstein - Ich Will REACTION!

[@Rank.Roundup]

I’m a German teacher, and I use Rammstein often in my lessons. Their lyrics are usually simple and repetitive - great for learning - and if the kids like the music as well, it encourages them to learn.

[@The_Toxic_Mandalorian]

Kind regards from Germany !

[@Asta453]

Ich wünschte, auch nur einer meiner Deutschlehrer oder eine meiner Deutschlehrerinnen hätte das getan. Bin ich doch schon seit meiner Schulzeit Fan, hätte mich das sehr gefreut.

[@hardcore54anarchists95]

Wish I had a teacher like that in England.

[@bennynordgren]

In an interview, Rammstein described the music video of "Ich will" as being a demonstration of the media's obsession with a good story, as well as an illustration of the immortality that can be achieved by those who commit wrongs.

[@annegretkasten6277]

Till Lindemann and Rammstein noticed that enough last year. The disappointment when there was nothing to it.

[@MrDroofus]

This is really good live, Ich Will turns into a back and forth conversation between the audience and the band.

[@PAINNN666]

Because IT IS song for live concerts. Probably special made. They can say anithing but it's true goal I think.

[@AngelAllenson]

Yaaas you guys finally reached it. My favorite fucking Rammstein music video since I was 15 years old and still now. It’s the love letter from the band to the fans. It’s the one that fans are a part of the song and we are the echo back. The band asks if we can see them, if we can hear them, if we can feel them and we shout back YES WE DO with a volume and fervor that Till is thrown back at how much we stand behind them and love them. The music video is obviously an exaggerated circumstance but it’s to say that Rammstein could rob a fucking bank and the fans would surround them and protect them to the point that they can’t breathe. In the end, they’re still winning awards incarcerated in infamy and Flake is honored like a messiah. It’s a dangerous love but that’s Rammstein, baby.

[@BenjaminBK]

One little fun fact to that track: it was the first song they designed to actually involve the audience. before the songs worked for themselves, although e.g. "du hast" works great on concerts with the audience, but this song actually needs the audiences response and they weren't sure this really works out. I guess you can say it worked out :D

[@rubberduck3421]

in the making of they said that these question and answer songs don't suit them. but since they say afterwards, i don't hear you, it fits again.

[@TimmyJEuchida]

The singer Till Lindemann was in the East German swimming team and shortlisted for the 1980 Moscow Olympics, but left the sport due to an injury. That's why he's ripped

[@ivarsdrikis6983]

Not exactly injury

[@dennstein]

And remember this was 2001. There are not that many bands that not only evolve but also keep the same quality, drive and in return receive the same attention and respect from the audience over a period of 25-30 years

[@WilliamBuckler-s3i]

Rammstein is just talent, talent, talent, talent, talent, and talent. They are even great actors too. Like many others I would love to see them make a full length movie. It would be Epic.

[@Litsntei_]

Till played a stupid, clumsy petty criminal in the children's film "Amundsen der Pinguin" (Amundsen the Penguin), very convincing and talented 🐧🤣

[@horrorhistory7342]

And he was so good in obviously all the music videos and live concerts but especially in the short film ich hasse kinder!!

[@Litsntei_]

Till speaks several languages. His bandmate Richard (lead guitarist) has a multinational side project EMIGRATE. Richard plays guitar and sings. Till is sometimes a guest singer. for example the cover ALWAYS ON MY MIND. He sang a beautiful song with the French chanson singer ZAZ LE JARDIN DES LARMES: His new single is sung in Spanish, a cover of the Spanish song ENTRE DOS TIERRAS

[@S-yr9il]

Not to forget Russian... the short movie Ich hasse Kinder and Любимый город

Hey that was The Symbionese Liberation Army that kidnapped Patty Hearst. I don't know who that gang is Dom was talking about.

[@lisasalcedo8508]

This is AMAZING live! This is a call and react during their concert! It’s a little bit of a stretch for some peeps in the USA (I’m American, so chill 😅), but I screamed it out in LA 2022!!! ❤

[@MrSqueasil]

So glad you did this song. This is my favorite song for Rammstien

[@abeldecuba]

I love rammstein almost all songs, but this one definitely my no1 too 🤝

[@arnonyhm4055]

The Baader-Meinhof gang (terrorists) was a different story and mostly happened when the later Rammstein members were living in the Soviet-controlled East-Germany. The terrorists didn't give interviews and the media was not interested in their point of view. I assume the inspiration for the song and the video was another (and later) true crime. In 1988 there was a bank heist in Germany (Gladbeck), after which the perpetrators fled and took hostages. During the escape, journalists conducted several interviews with the perpetrators and obstructed police work. After 54 hours of flight through almost half of Germany, the perpetrators were caught. Two hostages and a policeman were killed. The behavior of the journalists, who hindered the work of the police due to their close proximity to the events, later sparked an intensive public debate. In the video Rammstein seems to provoke media attention by the heist, not primarely to steal money. The line "Wir wollen in Beifall untergehen." (We want to drown in applause.) indicates it. The live version of this song (e.g. Ich will - live from Hurricane Festival 2016) shows a great involvement of the audiance. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIS7i4GVrrF9n5Y

[@johnthompson3522]

Til is a big dude. Before Rammstein he was on the East German national swim team until he was kicked off for missing curfew

[@rst7332]

All the ”making of”-videos of the music videos are masterpieces. And they give so much in regards to why the videos are as they are 😉

[@b8dm00d]

Apart from the notorious Rammstein double layer meanings, which in this case is media critique, this is a great song to communicate with the audience. Incredible crowd control mechanisms going on. Imagine a dark arena with 70.000 people, a blinding light show, the sawing guitars and roaring basses, and then the singer screams in the chorus "Can you hear me?" and a crowd of 70.000 people is answering with one voice "We hear you!" and so on. I had that at their concert in Munich last year. Still makes me goosebumps just thinking on it.

[@maureenwagg5305]

I love everything about this band from the look to the sound to the perfectly rolled Rrrr's. It's so ..... German.

[@chriscb8353]

you better wtach this song live from 2023! So much better atmosphere there

I love Rammstein! Their songs usually have a great meaning and their live performances (went to 2) are simply something else!

This song is an absolute banger live. We went to see Rammstein in May twice in Dresden Germany and omg you get goosebumps when they play that song. They play with audience like a military opera and the audience are their soldiers and we all comply. It's absolutely insane but freaking amazing

[@gregw74]

The beginning of this song would make for a good ring tone.

[@JeremyLittle8020]

The have a legitimately beautiful song named ohne dich (Without You) No crazy stuff in the video to worry about, and musically different than most of thier songs.

Great Great reaction ❤❤ thank you! Loveypt rammstein reaction very much !

[@tobiasfedder1390]

Awesome reaction as always! You two should definetely react to Angst (again). Speaking of Rammstein videos with multiple layers of messages I'd recommend you check out Ausländer (Foreigner). The visuals are adding so much to the lyrics.

[@dawatcherz]

there's a lot of boobies in that video

[@SmeagolTheGreat]

Ausländer is a great one, yes. Very fun, sarcastic video.

[@saadesigner07]

The crowd yelling back to them when they play this live is awesome. Gave me goosebumps when I went to their show.

[@mustardtopdog9064]

This is really one for live performances it's really call and response oriented

[@paulalloyd8860]

You hsve to do Weiner Blut live at Wackenfest. Till sings like a beast. Its based on another true story. About Fritz. A man who built an apartment soundproof and kidnapped his daughter and kept her there for over 20 years fathering 7 children, some who died. The reason I bring this up is because he is up for PAROLE!!! The monster of Vienna they call him. The title Weiner Blut is Vienna Blood. Tills performance of this monster will blow you away. His voice is mind blowing.

[@MrTorbz]

Do the version from "educatedmarine" with english lyrics and backstory!

[@SmeagolTheGreat]

I've never heard anyone call Fritzl the Monster from Vienna, since he is not from vienna. He lived in Amstetten, lower austria. But yes, great, haunting song. I love the whole LIFAD album, for me it's their best after the older classics.

[@PWRobinson1976]

Hi! Army Brat here who, after living from 76 to 1982 in Germany returned Germany in 1984 and then stayed here. Born in 1976 I do remember a little bit the last wave of the RAF. I also remember the Killing of Silke Bischoff (Gladbeck). I love Rammstein. Love your reactions. 👍👍👍

[@_user-mp6jj]

Nice reaction! You have to take a look at the official video of "Radio". The song has a deep meaning and a nice video

[@S-yr9il]

I think it is even better live. Try kzbin.info/www/bejne/bIS7i4GVrrF9n5Y I believe in the first verse Till is speaking for the band, second verse for the press (almost the same lyrics but obviously faked sincerity and slight changes like "I want You to believe me" to "We want You to believe us EVERYthing") For me it is about the communication between band and fans inspite of the press that gets in between. And what You said about double meanings - f.i. "we wanna see Your hands" - from the band it means just "raise Your hands clap for us" from the press it is "we wanna see what You are doing so show us Your hands" Live it is great because of the crowd singing to the band and Tills acting on stage for the second verse. Just beautiful.

[@shannonegendoerfer9335]

Please do Radio and Adieu! I think you'd really love both!

[@Litsntei_]

LiveJuly 1, 2023 in Italy/Europe Stadium Tour 2023: kzbin.info/www/bejne/h2iXk3SlpN51ZqM The song/music video is actually 23 years old. The song is an interaction live between Till/band and the crowd: Till: We want to see your hands (the entire crowd raises their hands), Till: we want to be drowned in applause (crowd: claps) Till: Can you hear me? Crowd: we hear you Till: Can you see me? Crowd: we see you Till: Can you feel me? Crowd: we feel you Till: we don't understand you The video is about getting attention by manipulating the media and becoming famous. The media gains attention through a big story. Richard accidentally triggers the alarm with his prosthetic hand. The band gets their media attention, gets an award, the media gets attention from the bad guys and Flake makes himself immortal because he blows up. At the end are short excerpts from her videos "SONNE", "SEEMAN", SEHNSUCHT", "DU RIECHST SO GUT", "DU HAST", "STRIPPED (cover version of Depeche Mode's Stripped)

[@TheRealityleak]

Their song Feuer Frei was used in the vin diesel movie Xxx. Also Sonne is a great song!

[@atalante982]

"Du riechst so gut" 1998 version is also a nice track & video clip. The song is taken from their first album.

[@michaelhandler6156]

You should take a look at "Mein hertz brennt", "Seemann" and "Spring" from Rammstein. Three very different but deep songs

[@andrewkohtz]

You guys should really do Mein Herz Brennt, the piano version. Its a song about children's nightmares and the piano version is hauntingly beautiful.

Hi there from Germany. There is one song from Rammstein that you have to react to when you like awesome music and lyrics that allow a ton of interpretations. And the song is almost unknown!

[@victorstefanovsky6902]

Rammstein videos are not always following the lyrics.This one is about connection with the fans. Great live song

[@WeightLV]

The song is about how the press and journalists at the time (and even today) portrayed the band in their favor. Namely, in a bad mood, because it is profitable for media representatives to make money on Rammstein at the expense of hype. In the scene of the video, the bank robbery represents Rammstein's "another" bad deed, so journalists arrive at the scene with the aim of "killing" the band, with a live broadcast from the scene. But behind the press are ordinary people who are fans of Rammstein and respond to the lyrics that they believe and trust the band, despite the media version. At the end of the video, Flake blows up a bank, but no one is killed in the explosion, but snippets of the video are shown, which have served as a propaganda tool among the media, who at the time were using Rammstein to smear them. "Flake" dies, sacrificing himself on behalf of the group.

[@communications23]

Baader-Meinhoff group / RAF is referenced in the Deutschland video. Baader-Meinhoff Komplex is a great book on the subject.

[@dextermorgan6282]

[@scharsigo]

"Angst" is a good reference, bro. It's showing how we glorify evil, through media, through fandom, through stockholm syndrom. If you want another strong video about that topic check out "Make Me Famous" by Kim Dracula. By the way, Rammstein's last video "Adieu" summarizes many old videos and "the robbery" from Ich Will is a huge part there. Cheers!

At this time, some of the words became a total differnet meaning because of the allegations of abuse that have arisen against Till Lindemann. Espcially the words "wir wollen dass ihr uns vertraut" which means "we want you to trust us" became a fully different meaning. And you can see, hear and feel it by the reaction of the crowd and Till's facial expressions and a bit lost of his voice at 2:55

I first saw them at the Roxy a club in NYC 25 years ago..lol.. people are so late to the party.. Its so funny to me because I loved them the first time I heard them around 1997ish and some people in the metal and industrial crowd thought they would never get any traction outside Germany and hated on it. I've been going to German industrial festivals for decades now.. its a deep rabbit hole and much better than the Anglo or American scene these days
