[@ChoIzanami]

Native german speaker here. I'd like to say a few things about the lyrics. German is a very difficult language, so some subtile meanings can get lost in translation easily: So the song is a play on the phrases "Du hast mich", coming from the word "etwas haben", which means to own or posses something but also to just have something (in your hand/pocket/etc) Like all words in German, "Haben" changes when conjugated. "Ich habe, du hast, er/sie hat", instead of "I have, you have, he/she has". "Haben" in this form is also used to signal past tense "Ich habe den Ball geworfen." means "I threw the ball" (at some unspecific point in the past). It's used in the past tense of the word "jmd fragen", that means to ask someone. "Du hast mich gefragt" means "You asked me." So the phrase "Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nix gesagt" means "You asked me and I didn't say anything." The other word used is the word "etwas/jmd hassen", which translates to "to hate someone or something." Again conjugating, "Du hasst mich." means "You hate me." As you already translate correctly, the rest of the lyrics is the German equivalent to the "Till death do us part" wedding vows. "Willst du" translates to "Do you want to" but in older days "Willst du" was also used in place of an order, "You are going to do this!" So the chorus is the question: "Will you stay faithful to her till death parts you?" The high pitched (female) voice answers with "Ja." meaning "Yes." or in this context "I do." The deeper (male) voice answers "Nein." meaning "No." The wordplay in the beginning signals the shift in emotion. She loves you, wants to marry you, asks you to stay with her till death parts you.... and you don't answer, making her love for you turn to hatred and pain. "Du hasst mich." You hate me. I also want to mention the word "Treu." "Treu sein" translates to "being faithful", but it has more meanings that just to not cheat on someone. "Mir selbst treu sein." means "being true to myself". "Deinen Worten treu sein", to be true to your word, means to not lie, to keep a promise and also to not break from your beliefs and your stance. "Jemandem treu sein" means "to be loyal to someone", both in the way of being there for someone and in protecting the person. So there are a few more layers to this "betrayal" in the song. Rammstein actually has a kind of complicated stance in the german metal world. Sadly, there is a lot of strong popular right-winged bands in Germany, so that hard German Rock or metal music often gets automatically associated with promoting those kinds of political views. Rammstein was often painted in the media as a "Nazi-band", mainly because of the way Till pronounces the R sometimes, and they answered to that with a song called "Links, zwo, drei, vier" that you might want to check out in this context. The title translates to "Left, two, three, four", which was a way for soldiers to count their steps so the would march in sync, with "links", left, refering to the left leg. "Links" or "Links sein" (being left) is a very casual way to state that someone supports left-winged politics, not in the way of "communist", but in contrast to "being right". I would recommend you to maybe wait a bit with exploring Rammstein right now, though, as they are caught up in a massive scandal here in Germany relating to groupies, elicit activity backstage and drugging people. It has been pretty huge in the media. But if you want to explore some german lyrics, I'd always love to help.

[@lobo3928]

I know this isn’t new but hands down yours is the best breakdown of literally everything that I’ve seen in any reviews of this song/video. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@willmolina7395]

Man !!! Awesome breakdown !! Thank you .. saludos from los Angeles CA..

[@strangeling325]

Hands down the best live show on the planet. Til is a certified pyrotechnician, and the rest of the band are trained as well. Every movement they do on stage is EXTREMELY precise, due to safety. Seeing this with your own eyes? Unreal. I waited 2 years, and drove 14 hours to see them...would gladly do so again. Til's father was a well known author, and he himself is a poet. There is a LOT of wordplay in their lyrics, which can sometimes get lost in translation. They are the reason that I studied German for a good while. They also delve into stories that would give most pause, real life stories. Give a look to 'Mein Teil', 'Weiner Blut', or 'Halloman'...they are all based on real life cases. Their lyrics can be totally camp, outlandish, dirty af, scary as hell, and heart breaking in depth...they are not a one tricky pony. My absolute favorite song of all time from them? 'Spieluhr'...it hits hard due to the past. It was one of the first songs to ever make me genuinely ugly cry. I still plan on getting a tat inspired by it, it's THAT relevant to me. If you ever get a chance, 10000% GO SEE THEM. It is worth every bit of time, effort, and money to do so.

[@zoegartham312]

I haven't heard many of their songs, but the few I have heard I really like. I feel like KH is semi correct in his evaluation of this as a love/marriage type of song though, based on what I know of Rammstein. It is a love/wedding/marriage type of song... but I think (or feel, perhaps) that the primary "bride" or "groom" (depending on who is singing it) is, in fact, Germany. Knox brings it up and talks about it some, but it seems to me like he still thinks of it as a song between a couple rather than a person and their country.

[@strangeling325]

@zoegartham312 he is right in his breakdown . They do also leave the lyrics up to personal interpretation. For one that is between them and their country, 'Deutschland'. The video is breathtaking, loaded with historical reference, and cinematic af!

[@teresas8173]

I saw them in Sept., they just wrapped up a North American tour. The concert was the absolute greatest!

[@Zinetha]

Saw them 13 years ago, when I was 18. They had those crazy flames as we see here as well, and they set a guy in flames on stage. I had never and have never after that seen anything like it.

[@zoegartham312]

@@strangeling325 Oh I know. Deutschland is the other song I know by Rammstein, and you're right, the video is out of this world. Knox Hill is also great at breaking songs down, and as far as I know nothing he said was incorrect. I just... listening to this song, watching his reaction, and knowing how good Rammstein is at approaching nationalism in a non-negative manner, being able to express both the love for Germany and the hate/acceptance of the tarnished history of the nation harmoniously, such as they do... I see that strongly expressed in Du Hast as well. Is it a love letter between a man and a woman? Yes, of course. But that seems a little too simplistic for a band that has so much depth to them, if that makes sense. However, that's my opinion.

[@klbearsfan1254]

Possibly the only band that, when you ask how long the concert was, answers "About 17 miles."

[@freddieallen2088]

I was coming to suggest this one. My favorite Rammstein song with an amazing performance and production.

[@cranjismcbasketball613]

There’s something to be said about the beauty of music. You have a German band, singing in Paris, getting the French people, to sing in German.

[@seralynda]

"Are they subverting the wedding vows?" Yes. And thank you for being one of the few English speaking reactors to get this, lol! A lot of people lose the meaning because of how German verbs are constructed. 😊

[@UltimaTiger]

I've seen a few people get the wedding vows subversion, but I still agree. His "yeah... I feel like we're getting ready to get married to the devil" is one of the best summation of the song from a first time reaction anyway.

[@holdtightadele8017]

I mean most English speakers with half a brain can work that out wether they speak German or use a translation.

[@paulocarvalho6480]

Nothing like a Rammstein song to brighten even the most grey day and make me smile like a 5 year old kid in a candy shop. Well done, mate. It is difficult to not like Rammstein after a few songs. Not even one bad song in their portfolio, and pretty much all of them have double meaning.

[@charlesvincent4127]

Fun Fact Till Lindeman is a licensed pyrotechnician, he also has some serious stage fright which makes their live performances that much more powerful and amazing.

[@kiradattei]

Watching people react to this performance is becoming a guilty pleasure of mine for 2 reasons: 1. The treadmill 2. The firework to stage explosion 😍 I love that Knox worked it into his Metal Mondays. Awesome reaction as always Knox.❤❤ I would also recommend from Rammstein the live performance of Engel in Madison Square Garden.

[@madcracker84]

I pretty much skip to those parts lol

[@vaylenrayne]

Fun Fact: The Keyboard player is always on a treadmill for every show and usually averages around 27 miles of walking per concert! Also all the liquid they're covered with is actually fire retardant because of the pyrotechnics. Also related: The Lead singer didn't like the pyro when they first started going live so he went and became a licensed pyrotechnician so that he could do all of these pyrotechnics himself.

[@alanjohn6355]

You cant beat a band where they are all pyrotechnicions, and amazingly, Till suffers from stage fright but can control a huge crowd like he does.

[@savemepunk3191]

Saw them live back in September... one of the greatest live performances I have ever seen! I was about 10 rows from the stage and it was one of the greatest concert experiences I've ever had... INCREDIBLE!

[@FNP81145]

As far as I know, they said in an interview that all songs are about love. And there are right, but there are many types of love. e.g. the love-hate relationship for a country with a so dark past like germany in „Deutschland“ Also Rammstein has the best Liveshow I know. So I would recommend more of Rammstein live. And yes, Flake is on an treadmill, because he likes to move and cant move freely on Stage without burning himself Greetings from Germany

[@drkilded]

Knox, you should definitely check out either, Ich Tu Dir Weh live or Mein Hertz Brennt piano version. Both are absolutely amazing performances by Rammstein. Till Lindemann ( front man) is a trained pyro technician. He got into using pyros on stage to help with stage fright. His father was a famous German poet in the 30s or 40s and is where he learned a lot about wordplay. Just a little back ground for you.

[@freddieallen2088]

Brilliant choices Tyler

[@donmongoose]

Yup, Madison Square video for Ich Tu Dir is epic, Knox should have fun breaking down the lyrics as well lol

[@mannistef]

I was lucky enough to attend a Rammstein show in Iceland in 2017 and I can confirm that everyone went crazy when this banger started :) And plenty of fireworks included

[@JohnSmith-ud9ex]

From experience... If you ever ever ever get the chance Knox, go to a Rammstein concert. Its almost a primal atmosphere, utterly electric and something that I promise you will remember for the rest of your life.

The first three rows of their shows are called hot seats. Du hast is you have, so he's saying You Have Me(Du hast mich), and Du hasst mich means You Hate Me. He's saying both. =) I definitely recommend seeing the live video of Feuer Frei to see them blowing fire.

Welcome to the world of Rammstein. Been their fan since I lived in Russia in late 90s. I been a die hard fan of theirs pretty much my whole life since. I’m 33 now and still blast this every time it comes in the mix

[@TheRatsCast]

I saw them years ago; before they were well known is the states. They opened for KMFDM; in this really small converted movie theater. I knew then; I was watching the birth of greatness, as this man came out on stage, and was lit on fire. He was wearing this protective metal jacket, but still. To see him sing; while his arms were aflame, was amazing. A true artist in the making. Every video I've see; still amazing me, just how creative this band it. And the music is killer; there's no band like Rammstein!

They have one of the best live shows you'll ever see. The guitar sound is amazing live. They have many pyrotechnic people because there's fire everywhere. The front the back the sides. They have flame throwers attached to their guitars. I saw 18 wheelers on the side of a stadium one time unloading all they have to carry. Ticket price is worth it. They've been at this for a very long time.

it's more than 18 wheeler :) like 50 to built the stage and sound system during a whole week (you can find a timelapse on the official YT page) :)

[@talesofsleepy]

[@humanoid251]

This song is iconic! One of the first metal songs I ever heard as a kid “These dudes just have blood and gore all over their arms?” If I’m remembering correctly that’s a thermal gel to protect them from getting burned by the insane pyro they have in their show. But it does look like blood and honestly fits their vibe I NEED to see Rammstein live someday. As a pyromaniac the visuals of their show are something I need to experience in person It could be a metaphor for patriotism cuz they do have songs about Germany and their politics (Deutschland/Links 234) but the explicit meaning is about infidelity. As you saw the bulk of the chorus is wedding vows but notice how the response to the questions is “nein” (no). I highly recommend checking out the music video because it reinforces this by showing a story that depicts the the drummer with a woman, he then goes into this barn and finds the band there and they proceed to beat and immolate someone (presumably the woman’s lover) before showing them walking out much to her surprise and then a shot of the drummer checking his watch right before the car explodes killing the woman

[@robbyjayz]

[@Telthar]

The blood on Till is from Mein Teil earlier in the set.

[@Qwertky]

Didn't they used to use a coffee/water wash to darken the skin, and they ended up jittery from absorbing the caffeine through their skin, because it was so strong? I think I remember reading that.

[@alexanderberlin6089]

You have to know that "Du hast" ("You have") and "Du hast mich" ("You have me") sounds exactly like "Du hasst" (which means "you hate"...and afterwards "you hate me")! So it is a play of words that only works in german with this words. I love this song!

[@mayden1910]

I travelled from Costa Rica to Mexico and saw them Live. It was the best experience of my life.

There's a bit of a double entendre/homophone going on there too, Du Hast = You Have, but Du Hasst = You Hate

[@granadosvm]

Yes, their show is that insane. I saw them live in 1999 in Mexico City, back then they didn't have the electric effects on the keyboard, and instead of launching the flairs from a gun they used a bow, which was cool because the arch of the bow had its own fireworks and they started rotating it to make it look like they were making shapes with light. The flairs coming back the the stage and then explosions and fire, and the entire band kept performing like "yeah, this is normal for me, just my day job"...

Please, please react to both versions of Mein Herz Brennt. The official piano version and then the official video. You will see so many sides to this singer and band in those two videos. You could do them both in one reaction maybe? I know that you might not want to do the same set of lyrics twice but the piano one gives you a really good insight into the character the singer is portraying and the 'normal' video then would give you a lot to discuss about what the story means.

[@unclefoot]

Hell yeah! Metal Mondays with Knox are the best. This is the song that put them on the map stateside. Now that you’ve got an idea of what their live show is about, you HAVE to peep their live version of ‘Engel’ at Madison Square Garden. The lyrics of that song are beautifully poetic and I think you’ll really appreciate them for what they are. Not to mention the performance itself is awe inspiring. Other Rammstein recommendations: Mein Herz Brennt (piano version) Zeit Sonne Ich Tu Dir Weh (Live, Madison Square Garden) The album this song is on, Sehnsucht was a barn burner when it came out and deeply effected so many people my age. I have the absolute best memory of the first time I heard Du Hast: I was 10 years old, playing NFL Blitz on the 64 in my friends basement when he randomly put on a cd that one of his cousin’s lent him…our little rural Nebraska minds were blown and we rocked out for a solid day and a half. Nothing but NFL Blitz, Goldeneye, Turok, Surge, Doritos, and Rammstein on repeat. It was as close to heaven as a kid could get in 1998 lol. Been a die hard fan ever since. Cheers!

rammstein concerts are just so … so special. the fire, fireworks, everybody singing the songs pretty much COMPLETELY with the band the entire song. i’ve been a bunch of times and will be again next year and i just recommend it.. so so much. till (the lead singer) theoretically wouldn’t have to sing a single thing cause the crowd can and will easily sing the entire concert 🤣 sometimes he’ll motion for silence and silence he shall have. others probably said it but they’re known for their shows. the fire, fireworks and props (if curious, watch the live version of ‘mein teil’ or ‘puppe’ .. first ones that come to mind). there’s so much more etc. they fill the biggest venue in my city and you hear and see the show FAR so everybody around the venue gets to enjoy them, too 🤭

Important to know: the first sentence is cvery deliberately structured "Du (You)" "Du has(s)t - either meaning "you have" if writen with one s or "you hate" if written with two s "Du has(s)t mich" again, either "You have me" which would be an incomplete sentence waiting for a resolution or "You hate me" The way the song continues "Du hast mich gefragt" (You have asked of me" makes it clear in the end which one is meant, but it is deliberatly kept vague in the beginning

There is a lot more wordplay in it. He swithed between singing: Willst du bis der Tod euch scheidet, treu ihr sein für alle Tage - Do you want until death does part you, be faithfull to her, for every day Willst du bis zum Tod der Scheide, sie lieben auch in schlechten tagen - Do you want until the death of the (for lack of a better translation) vagina, love her on bad days also

[@zuip]

He sings 'bis der tot ihr scheided' (till death do us part' and changes it to 'bis zum tot der scheide' in the last verse, which means something like 'till death of the sheath', so when there is no more 'action' in the bedroom, will you still be faithfull? Awnsered by a loud 'nein!' so, no 😅😋

There's nothing like watching Rammstein live. The pyrotechnics aren't a one-time thing, they have something planned for each part of their set.

Hey knox, I was born and raised in Germany and grew up on Rammstein. There’s not a soul in Europe that doesn’t know this song. And metalheads in the US know this song too. He is referring to staying loyal to god. He’s asking God but he doesn’t say anything back. Until our death, we part , we should stay loyal regardless, if we hear from god or not. You are a very intelligent guy and were extremely close to their metaphor. I love watching your channel because you don’t miss a thing.. thank you for all your hard work

Considering the lead singer and the author of these and most other lyrics has stated that he is an atheist, that's just you projecting your personal feelings on these lyrics without any basis in reality.

[@madsunday329]

Been waitin for this reaction, made my day🫡

[@ileana8360]

Well, the whole time the female voice is answering "Ja/yes" whilst Till is resolutely saying "Nein/no" to the wedding vow. And there is the connection to the play on words "Du hast vs Du hasst"/"you have vs you hate"

[@d.l.3807]

To get into the lyrics back again: Nicely researched with the homophony. First they sing "Du. Du hasst. Du hasst mich." -> "You. You hate. You hate me." When it goes further: "Du hast mich gefragt. Du hast mich gefragt. Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt." -> "You have asked me. You have asked me. You have asked me and I didn't answer." So, "hasst" (hate) becomes the present perfect "hast gefragt" (have asked). I just realized that many websites for lyrics get the following part differently: I always hear "Willst du bis zum Tod der Scheide sie lieben auch in schlechten Tagen?" -> "Do you want until the vaginas death love her even on bad days?" Some are writing this. Others write something like "Willst du bis zum Tod, der scheidet, sie lieben auch in schlechten Tagen?" -> "Do you want until death, that separates, love her even on bad days?" So, I am not absolutely sure what he is singing on that line. I would not be shocked if it was the first one since we are talking about Rammstein. ^^

I swear, someone should do a reaction compilation of all the dozens of reactors saying 'is he on a treadmill?!' in nearly every single reaction to this video! 🤣

[@tamasszucs1928]

Du hast mich - you have me, du haast mich - you hate me. A Rammstein concert is very spectacular. Especially when you see them up close. (let's say this is at least 20 meters due to the pyrotechnic devices)

I'm a Russian Rammstein fan. This one performance is everything Rammstein is in one vid.

[@AngriiLO]

I saw Rammstein live and the lead singer came out on fire and did the first 2 songs while in flames

I love that one of my fav reactors has found Rammstein who are my absolute number 1 band! Given your talent for lyrical interpretation, I'd love to see your thoughts on tracks such as Zeit, Adieu, Deutschland (the official videos are masterpieces), Mein Herz Brennt (I'd recommend the piano version), Mein Teil (live). To answer a couple of things you remarked on - Flake (the keyboard player) is on a treadmill because it powers the tesla coils that produces the electricity effects and because he gets bored standing still for a couple of hours. It's not 'blood and gore' all over them, its fire retardant gel :) and the band are all certified pyrotechnicians which is how they are allowed to do all the effects. Enjoy the journey!

I think the best example of their showman ship is „Engel“ (Angel) live in Madison Square Garden. About Du Hast I think it’s the most compact story: a egocentric woman (Du) who is also hateful (Du hasst) and even hates her boyfriend (Du hasst mich) has the audacity to ask him the big question (Du hast mich gefragt) … all the rest but these 4 words are thus details to color the story more (and just in case you are wondering - but you should not, she wants a Yes but gets a harsh and unmisunderstandable NO)

Knox I love the fact you can figure out and play out meanings even in languages you don't know, just from reading between the lines within translations

[@mattiashedman8845]

He sings: Du hast (You have) German for hate is: Du hass (You hate). This play with meaning and words is something that can be found in many of their songs. And why he is bloody and gory, and why he is on a treadmill is from an earlier stage in the show...

DUDE, if you go down the Rammstein rabbit hole.... there is soooo much to talk about! You mention love and hate, loyalty etc.. you need to watch their Deutschland video! It is EXACTLY about that! Germany has a complicated history and Rammstein is from former east Germany as well so that song is about the fact you like to love your country but with Germany's history it's hard... I'm telling you these guys are deep! Their videos are like friggin movies! Adieu is a movie, Deutschland is like a movie.. they are so brilliant!

The lightning fingers are added in post production but everything else is real

[@baloonangel]

Been to their show last year!! Amazing!! So much pyrotechnics

[@ajruther67]

You just witnessed why Rock and Heavy Metal will always be better than Rap any day. There is one that is similar to the call and response from the crowd and that is Queen at the Live Aid fund rasier concert in 1985. That was on 2 continents. London and Philadelphia. As Freddie was doing the call and response in London, it was also broadcast via satellite (which was new at the time) in Philadelphia and that crowd was responding as well. An approximate total of 200,000 people. That whole concert was 12 hours and broadcast all over the world to 1 billion people.
