Rappers React To Rammstein "Mein Herz Brennt"!!!

[@jaegermeister1968]

As a German-speaking 53-year-old Austrian, I saw Rammstein in her early days in 1995 or 1996. Back then we were all sure that they would become superstars in German-speaking countries, but I would never have believed that they would become international superstars. no matter whether in Russia, Japan or the USA, everyone sings along with the German text even if it is not understood. The band clearly owes its success to Till Lindemann who is incredibly charismatic.

[@CQUILPATRON40]

Even in France !! ;)

[@user-wh6sp6st8s]

They inspired me to learn to speak German and also gives the music another layer when you start to understand.

[@DakodaOK]

Rammstein's one of the few bands in the world who can take a creepy ass German fairy tale/children's show about the Sandman and make it both more ominous and beautiful.

[@kardy12]

The song is about the terrors of childhood nightmares. It also makes makes references to an old German children’s TV show called Der Sandmann, and the opening line of the chorus (Nun, liebe kinder, gebt fein Acht. Ich habe euch etwas mitgebracht. Or: Now, dear children, pay attention. I have brought something for you) is taken from the show. The show used to have a bedtime story for kids, and this song is essentially about a nightmarish variant of the sandman. But Rammstein lyrics always have different ways to interpret them. Some interpret the lyrics to be a reference to abuse linked to mind control or brainwashing, some that Till’s character suffered from these nightmares and that it’s about adults being unable to protect children from their nightmares, and I’m sure there are many more.

[@godlessfornicater]

Very interesting! I interpreted it as childhood abuse BY adults and the video being these grown children being unable to free themselves of these traumas. Which is why he killed the elderly woman and them burning the place down.

[@jeanpaulmichell7243]

It's one of the aspects I find most interesting, as I speak only a little bit of German but read the translated lyrics; yes they have double meanings and word-play and that makes the songs worth listening to repeatedly, with fresh perspectives. What a great band Rammstein is.

[@perleperle5441]

I love Rammstein, I love the energy in their songs and most of all I love Til's voice.....thanks for your great response....

[@thatgirlanne]

You have incredible insight! Till was a championship swimmer and grew up at a boarding school. He spent most of his day in a pool (long distance swimming). He was going to the 1980 Olympics when he had an injury that ended his swimming career. He was smaller at the time and had rosacea and acne and was horribly bullied.

[@rissaarei5336]

It is also good to remember, that he lived in Eastern Germany. As someone, who lived under the same regime for a time of my childhood, you can't even immagine how it was like. Even me - a six year old, who did not get what was politically going on - felt the fear and paranoia. How we kids would be told not to menton this or that to our peers, how praying was done in secret and anything western was literally contraband, coppied to spread to like minded people. And putting on a mask of happy families in public, never knowing who might been push to betray you or else their family would suffer.

[@marlenemartins6830]

Part of the lyrics is from an old children's television show in Germany. For me the lyrics talk about childhood nightmares. Also the song was often confused with a Final Fantasy X composition, due to a dark orchestra and rock influence.

[@The_Fat_Turtle]

Excellent choice for Rammstein, been something I've wanted to see for a while. Anything from "Reise, Reise" is worth reacting to.

[@lenarobinson]

Rammstein is always haunting and beautiful, grotesque and epic all at the same time, lyrically, vocally, musically and visually. I loved this reaction, thank you.

Great way to finish up 13 Days Of Halloween. Till Lindemann went to boarding school and this song was from a scary story they used to tell the students there.

[@mushinbujin]

The instrumentation always reminded me of Schindler's List (thought they're not really that similar.) Great reaction, and such a creepy song is great for Halloween. Btw--easy to pronounce "Herz" in German. Say "Hertz" like the car rental place but instead of the "her" part, say "hair" instead.

[@vegasviking86]

I have never seen this version of the video. Good shit! Edit: never seen the English lyrics either, and ngl... "voice from the pillow" is creepy af and is gonna stick with me 😂

[@mattn9805]

So glad you lads got to experience this masterpiece!

[@nordlicht5522]

The song was inspired by the German fairy tale "Der Sandmann", which is about a young man who goes insane. Children's fears, which are brought into adult life, and fire play a central role in this story.

[@amandaleeborchert3745]

Happy Halloween!🎃 I absolutely get cracked up listening to this band! They are so fricking awesome!🕷🕸

I once asked my German mother in law what Rammstein was singing about. She said quite simply, "Somethings are better not to repeat."

[@Azaghal1988]

Their topics are often taken from the darker places in the human soul. This one is (as i interpret it) about child abuse and it's effects for the victims. Mein Teil is about an infamous case of cannibalism.

[@rachystew4]

I have been to that building and have walked around it. So R+ didn't burn it down. It is spooky. Till represents the nightmare and dreams of children. He steals their tears whilst they sleep. The lady is defending the children from Till. You see her from a young nurse maid to old lady, still trying to protect them. That is why she ages in the video. The children in the cage/bath are the band and you see thar they also age and finally escape their prison/nightmare and burn the building to the ground.

[@bryandeschenes6153]

This is my favourite song by them......why you say? Oliver Riedel on bass shines in this one. This might be even better live,as you hear how he pounds that bass. Oliver usually is very anonymous on most of theyr other hits. The other guys tends to steal all the attention. And i have always been weak for a heavy present bassline throughout songs. So i tend to favor this song above the rest,because it shows Olivers talent more clearly.

This song is a masterpiece in my opinion , utterly SICK from Rammstein , amazing , creative band , but can i just say regarding you guys , i truly love reaction videos and have watched hundreds over the years , but for some reason have never stumbled across you both , absolutely LOVE you Trash Talkers , your enthusiasm comes pouring out from the screen and reminds you of why people love reaction videos let's be honest , sometimes it's hard to put in to words how much you love a particular track , but regarding this track , i would just say " Watch The Trash Talkers reaction video and you will see exactly how i feel about this track ! " Iove when you start the serious head bobbing and fist pumping and the intense reactions on your faces , you can tell you are really listening intensely to the track . I'm a Metal Head traditionally , but like rap too , have always said there are alot of similarities between them , both are very beat - driven for a start . Anyway , love you guys and am off to start watching a bunch more , nice one guys ! 👍

[@atefrustn7332]

The song and video is a metaphor about nightmares and fears. The text deals with the essence of fear, personified as a creature that injects the tears of children into its veins. Actually it is a dead body, but the fear of the people makes his "heart burn" so it brings it to life. The video goes in a similar direction. The orphanage with the imprisoned children is a metaphor for the people's fears. Everbody is in some way trapped by his own fears. The children grow up, but these are the same fears that haunt them as adults. Only in the end when the prisoners face their fears, do they succeed in escaping their prison. In the end, they can defeat Till and rob him of his power, who embodies the essence of fear in the video.

[@bakkermaarten007]

The official video is a shortened version of the song. Listen to the studio version which features a chilling guitar solo in the bridge. Cannot believe they felt the need to cut that from the video!

[@somberlight]

the school seems like a metaphor, an insinuation for not having a choice. us regular people dont really get to choose your school, its just a thing you do. a bit like you dont get to choose your family either, its just a thing in your life you have to cope with. i see this as a metaphor for domestic violence and how the memories of it can fuck you up if you dont let go. 1) the kids that wore "the mask" kind of thing. many in abusive situation tend to wear a facade, you know the kind of "everything is peachy" kind of thing 2) till vs the woman in different ages and his actions towards her = she knew, she always knew but could not stop the madness. didnt dare to. 3) the dreams of the children portray a sense of being trapped. the faceless captor stands for not understanding what is happening 4) the kid who did the throat slit gesture, he was corrupted by Till. if you´ve grown up in circumstances like these, your morality might be a bit wonky. 5) the broken one (the one in the surgical table) understood everything (she could never wear a "i´m happy" -face ) and gave the children a glimpse of the real world and how things are for real. 6) now seeing how things are, many children got help (the woman in white) and got out of the circumstances. those who didnt, broke free after removing the "i´m fine" face. what was under the "mask" was a complete mess, but they got out. 7) the kids got out, but the "freed" adults burned the entire house down. 8) in the end, tills own demons ate him alive way before the house was all in flames.

The song's lyrics involve a narrator describing the terrors of nightmares. The opening line of the song's intro and chorus (Nun, liebe Kinder, gebt fein Acht. Ich habe euch etwas mitgebracht, meaning "Now, dear children, pay attention. I have brought something for you") is taken from the German children's TV show Sandmännchen ("Mr Sandman"), which provided children with a bedtime story. The song's narrator appears as a darker version of the character.

[@metalrulezU]

The premise of the song is that its being song from a night terror or sandman if you will, basically his heart burns because he doesn't want to scare these children but is compelled for some reason. the video you can see the children getting older showing how our nightmares sometimes stay with us until the end, very cool idea for a song and different to most writers train of thought :) not to mention the music is banging xD

Definitely watch the piano version. Now this is very technical, but: the science of esthetics deals with four fundamental categories: the beautiful, the ugly, the sublime and the grotesque. In no real art will you ever get any of them in pure form, it's always a mix of two or more. But essentially if you overdo the sublime, you slip into grotesque (think of Galadriel's transformations in the Lord of The Rings as an example of that), therefore grotesque is somewhere between sublime and ugly. You get what I mean.
