Stunning, terrifying, emotionally charged, brutal, beautiful - Rammstein. The brutal history of their old yet young country, wanting to love their own culture but being shackled by the terrible events of the past - all in the name and glory of Deutschland, Deutschland. I always get chills when. I watch this and listen to it. All the way from the barbarian tribes of proto Germany - Germania. Of course the thing we can’t help but expect but are still shocked to see, the haunting images of the Holocaust. It couldn’t go ignored. Incredible.

[@Skyl3t0n]

When spoken normally it can sound very gentle and beautiful. And I'm not saying this to defend my language XD It's actually true. If you have a minute try listening to "Grüne Augen lügen nicht" - Jeremias, AnnenMayKantereit - "Barfuß Am Klavier" (exceptional in my opinion) or Namika - "Lieblingsmensch" They really are awesome songs even without knowing the lyrics (They do be making it better though) For some real Fantasy/Medieval vibes FAUN - "Federkleid" But i agree with you 100%. I also love german metal. The language is just versatile i guess. (If you actually checked them out can you give a short feedback if you liked it? I'm quite curious :P)

[@maikganz9266]

I'm from Germany so let me give you some thoughts from someone who's born here. First of all, first time I watched the video I was shocked and deeply moved. The song/ video takes a very deep look into our german souls and how most of us feel about our country. It's a love- hate- relationship. The video is loaded with tons of symbols, that as a German you catch onto. Let's start: in the intro you see Germania ( Personification of Germany) during roman/ germanian tribes time. The red Lazer represents the "red thread" of the story/ history. Astronauts from the future bringing Germania in a glass coffin (snow-white) so she can lead through the/her german history. Next you observe the twenties(Weimar Republic).The prison scene representing the rough, violent times especially for the majority of the population struggling to survive. Money raining down/ the great depression. And Germany's first try as a democratic state. In between Germania is dressed in knight's armor awaking her knights/band with the Lazarus spear. Next Germania is pushed in a wheelchair by the band through the Berlin Holocaust Memorial with burning bodies. Next vignette the office scene showing east Germany and west Germany reunited (1989). Then you're being taken back to mideveal times, monks/ church are feasting off of Germania. In most scenes you'll see some church man involved. No coincidence. The concentration camp scene in the background you see V2 rockets ignition. The inmates are wearing different types of stars on their chests and a sign on the gallows reads: no photos. Germania wears an eye-patch first on her left, than on her right eye. Than a quick shot of Germania dressed modern with lots of gold leading german shepherds., representing Germany's wealth. The 70's scene shows the RAF- extremists holding Germania/ Germany hostage. Next vignette is the witch burnings shifting to the book burning. If you have a close look, at minute @ you see a church man holding up a cross hugging a Nazi, symbolising the churches over all position to the horrific events happening during 1933-1945. The birth scene. Germania is giving birth to dogs respectively "Leonberger" a breed preferred by Kings and Queens. The Breed almost went extinct during WW1 and WW2. A cardinal helping (dressed in red) a new Germany being born. At minute @ you see the riots against refugees homes in the 90's in Hoyerswerda. Molotovs are being thrown and a car is being pushed over with the help of a man dressed in Nazi uniform. Than the scenes/ time vignettes start shifting faster and faster, showing how many times, when circumstances becoming to extreme everything is falling apart and Germania ( dressed in knight's) armor is crying. The outro is the piano version of the song "Sonne" which completed how we feel thinking of our past: a sense of sadness. To sum it up. Germany has a long, wild, violent, unique history, because we as a state of today exist only since 1989. Yet the roots go back a very long time. "Young and yet so old" I hope that helped a little to understand the video and with that us Germans. We don't have a strong feeling of patriotism, but a strong sense of unity. It's complicated. With love from Germany 🤘 😎

[@ReligionOfSacrifice]

Germania is the black woman and she represents the strength of Germany. Hence she is strong in the first encounter with Rome and then joins Rome and wears a crown of strength, but under the Holy Roman Empire she is beginning to be consummed as strength is in Rome and the religious who represent Rome. She is happy between WWI and WWII as Woodrow Wilson's "determinism" allowed Germany to attack other political views, but even stronger during WWII Nazi Germany's third Reich, and is captured by the Bader Meinhof RAF by accident in their terrorism in Western Germany, but is also gleeful at seeing strength also in the West, for she merely bids her time in Eastern communism as a soldier, but yells out her pride in being German. She has riches and dogs in this present age, but can also be in a wheelchair as she is weak in rejecting nationalism (I cannot give you my love), and she gives birth to dogs through interbreeding of the races and the white man is on his hands and knees as a dog before the lesser breed of race because of it. GERMANY OVER ALL. Now what was it all about? Finally, in the future with laser like in "Freejack" they are zeroing in on Germania to take her strength for the future and begin the cut while the crown is on her head inside the concentration camp, but she is dead and in a casket without the spaceship for the future at the very end. This is because only the spirit of THE ACT OF THE WILL is loved as the human is unnecessary in the future. Some Nazi who is rich, must have wanted to give forth this imagry knowing the demons are all that exist in hell as man is working towards no flesh as man is merely a beast (Psalms 49:20) as for humans the second body and soul are destroyed in hell fire (Matthew 10:28).

I want to add: In my opinion, the lasers are scanning (see the "Asutronauts" scan the monuments and objects they find) these scenes from Germany's history. Similar to how we are looking back now to learn about historical events. When the laser's angles get extreme - like trying to look at certain historical events from a specific non-neutral perspective - the scenes they are scanning get destroyed, because they don't allow to be looked at with a biased view.

Remembering when Du Hast first dropped in the U.S., I think a lot of people thought the band was just roaring guitars playing basic riffs. Anyone looking closer can see some real musical depth in what they do. Having grown up hearing older generations of my family speaking German, this music and the message is in my blood.

Many are sick of it, but this is part of our culture.

[@dmwalker24]

@@radschele1815 Yes, I feel the sadness, perhaps almost like regret. Knowing that my great-grandfather was arrested for speaking German in public during WWI. There was all that undeserved hate directed against Germans in that war, and then a lot of deserved hate in the 2nd World War. And of course as an American, I am well acquainted with being a citizen of a nation guilty of a long list of crimes against humanity.

[@DarkMatterBurrito]

"Du Hast" has the aural duality of "you hate" and "you have", depending on the context. Written as "Du Hast", though, it's "you have"; "you hate" would be "du hasst".

[@ExarchGaming]

when du hast dropped in the US It made absolutely zero sense, as Rammstein changed the lyrics entirely from the german version (even translated) Du Hast does not mean you hate, it means you have. the german version is a play on wedding vows, the english version is... lol i have no idea.

[@megatwingo]

Hi, I'm from Germany. Rammstein is playing a classic "Industrial Metal" style. A 50-50 mix of synthesizers and hard metal guitars. 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. Here unfortunately cut off / cut short at the end. 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 Emperor Germanicus. 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 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. 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 😄 I've got here a recommendation from Rammstein for you. It is one of their best songs. And yet this song is seldom reacted to and never played in their live shows. This song only makes really sense in combination with the best fan video ever made for Rammstein. It is animated and the version, I give to you here in a link, has additional English subtitles, because this song has a very hard, deep and profound message.

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, 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 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 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 Second World Wars and is symbolic of the German people, whose existence was also strongly threatened in those wars - both now have a second existential chance.

She's seen as the oppulent meal for the church officials to devour in the medieval times, while worldly/military powers sit next to the church, with a less oppulent meal, but not doing anything to help, instead they even look away while the church is devouring Germany in such a careless way that it feeds rats and parasites with Germany's body aswell.

I, as an American, can relate...though America isn't nearly as old nor have we ever been divided by a wall. (We were divided by a civil war, but that is a different thing. I digress.).

[@perlarsen9032]

Dr Alexandra Lloyd, lecturer in German at the University of Oxford, explain what the fuck is going on during the video's nine minutes…. The video opens in AD 16, on the ‘barbarian’ side of the limes, the border of the Roman Empire. Roman soldiers creep through the woods in the aftermath of the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest. The Romans were ambushed by an alliance of Germanic Tribes, led by a chieftain called Arminius (the original Hermann the German). Three legionary standards were captured, a loss symbolic and moral, as well as physical, and decades were spent trying to recover them. Rome never again attempted to take the lands east of the River Rhine, known as Germania…. ‘Germania’ refers not just to a place, somewhere partly defined by where it isn’t (Rome) as well as where it is, but also to a national figurehead, traditionally representing the German people. Germania is a strong woman, usually armour-clad and battle-ready. Various symbols appear with her, among them a breastplate with an eagle, a black, red, and gold flag, and a crown. Look out for these in the video - they come up again and again - and the colours of the contemporary flag are there in every scene…. We get our first glimpse of Germania here (played by Ruby Commey), who stands holding Till Lindemann’s severed head. Next, astronauts appear carrying a metal and glass box shaped like a coffin. In the background we see a U-boat - a German submarine, used in World Wars I and II. Then we move to a scene set at a boxing match which takes us to Weimar Germany (1918-1933), a period known for its political instability but also greater cultural liberalism. Here, Germania appears in the cabaret costume of a flapper girl, and the boxers fight with knuckle-dusters as a crowd cheers them on…. We see the former East Germany, complete with busts of Marx and Lenin, the national emblem of East Germany, and a lookalike of the long-serving, insular, and repressive GDR leader Erich Honecker. There’s another astronaut, or rather a cosmonaut: Sigmund Jähn, the first German in space, who flew with the USSR’s space program (and who’s also a character in the 2003 film, Good Bye Lenin!). Medieval monks feast grotesquely on the supine Germania, tearing sauerkraut and sausage from Ruby Commey’s body, prison inmates are beaten by guards dressed in police and military uniforms from different historical periods…. The most obviously shocking scene references the Holocaust and the Nazi period. Four members of the band, in the striped uniforms of camp inmates, wait at the gallows, about to be hanged. They wear the cloth emblems used to identify their ‘crimes’: a pink triangle for homosexual prisoners, a yellow star for Jewish prisoners, a red and yellow star for Jewish political prisoners…. This sequence, teased in an earlier promo video, has already caused controversy. Have Rammstein the right to do this? Do they trivialise the suffering of Holocaust victims? How can they justify using Holocaust imagery to promote their new video? These are important questions that are part of a much bigger debate about the ethics of using the Holocaust in art and media…. Other scenes include the band walking away from a flaming airship, referring to the 1937 Hindenburg Disaster, in which 36 people died. Rats scuttle across the floor when the monks first appear, suggesting the Pied Piper of Hamelin, a legend with origins in the 13th century…. Germania walks towards the camera in a leather jacket, gold jewellery and a string of bullets across her chest, resembling the chariot drawn by four horses (the ‘Quadriga’) on top of the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin. The band members’ heads are shown as white marble busts, taking us to the 19th century Walhalla memorial in Bavaria, built as German Hall of Fame, its sculpted heads of German worthies on display to this day…. In the prison, hundreds of banknotes fall from above, suggesting the devastating hyperinflation Germany suffered in the 1920s. Nazis burn books, intercut with religious fanatics burning witches. We recognise members of the Red Army Faction (also known as the Baader-Meinhof group), a militant organisation active in the 1970s in West Germany. And in a blink-or-you-miss-it exchange, we are reminded of the much-criticised relationship between the churches and the state during the Third Reich… Each scene captures in a moment the icons of an era, and the video cuts between them more and more frenetically as it goes on. Events bleed into each other, linked by the presence of the band members and the red laser beam that appears throughout the video, a ‘roter Faden’ (red thread or central theme), connecting each event…. Germany engages with its history in a very particular way. Try to imagine the video about Britain, with Britannia played by Ruby Commey. What would the equivalent events be? Quite a few of the tableaux might be similar - Romans, Crusaders, monks, 18th-century soldiers, collarless shirts and bareknuckle boxing - but would it have the same impact?.... There’s no affection, and perhaps not much hope: its pessimistic tone seems to be quite an off-brand message for post-1989 Germany, which wants to acknowledge its past critically, while also looking to its future as a state at the heart of Europe. And actually, while we get a lot of medieval and twentieth-century history, the video’s tour through the past seems to stop in the late 1980s, before the fall of the Berlin Wall and Reunification of East and West Germany. Instead, we jump into the future, where the space-suited band take Germania into the unknown, travelling in that coffin-shaped glass box…. There’s an echo of the video for Sonne, where Snow White is trapped in a glass coffin. In fact, a piano version of Sonne plays over the end credits of Deutschland. This is a useful link for understanding something of what Rammstein is doing here. In Sonne, where the band’s characters free themselves of Snow White (naturally, they’ve been her sex-slaves), only to realise that they have made a mistake and long for her return, the overwhelming feeling of Deutschland seems to be that when it comes to Germania (or Germany): you can’t love her, and you can’t live without her…. www.loudersound.com/features/we-got-an-oxford-university-professor-to-explain-what-the-fcks-going-on-in-that-rammstein-video

I've been listening to Rammstein since their beginnings. For the first time I was at a Clawfingers concert that made Rammstein a lead band and I did not believe what I heard and saw. After a few years, history turned around and the Clawfingers formed the lead band Rammstein. I have been and will also be at all their concerts here in the Czech Republic. In my opinion, this band has the best stage show in the world. Pyro effects are invented by the band's singer, who is also very interested in their production. Till has a very special and unique voice without vibration at the end. The lyrics and themes of the songs are very thoughtful, deep and make you think. The band founded a new music genre NDH (Neue Deutsche Härte). If you are a fan of them and you are at their concert, you are incredibly excited, happy, tanned by fire, completely wet and deaf for other days. You get the best music experience in the world. :-) Thanks for the video, check it out!

[@Djeagle64]

Just watched your video and it's very easy to see how the song/video affects you by the expression in your face. I'm born and raised in northern Germany as a part of the danish minority. My main national feelings have been for Denmark. But then Rammstein made this song and video and it became clear to me, that there also were som deep feelings for Germany. The video tells this in a very direct and honest way. You want to love her, but also you are ashamed because of her history. Through the video it became clear to me, that I can't deny my german ancestry despite of being raised as a child of Denmark. Don't know if it makes any sense, but for me it felt like an awakening.

If you want to hear Till Lindemann (the lead singer of Rammstein) sing in English, I recommend: "Lindemann" live in Moscow with the song "Home Sweet Home", a song about cancer that his father had. Greetings from Germany.

[@stormchaser419]

The production value of this video is off the charts. I wonder how much it cost to make it. I don't remember seeing a music video with as much as this one going on. It's like a mini movie. Rammstein has some of the best music videos ever put to film.

[@friedemannkemm63]

The harshness of German is no intrinsic property of our language (I am German myself), but a possible choice. It was especially popular in the first half of the twentieth century. It was in part due to the lack of microphones that people and especially politicians with an aggressive agenda opted for harsh shouting. There are a few recordings of them in more private settings where they sound much quieter and mellower. Some artists are considered right wing just because of their use of that harsh sound even if, like Rammstein, they are far from that. Maybe that is also part of their reasoning behind the choice of the actress for Germania. (Another reason might be that this way, the actress could not be mistaken for a German woman of our history.)

[@theexchipmunk]

This. Modern German is pretty soft if you really listen to it. It still has its hard sounds but overall its pretty melodic if you really listen to it. The modern believe that German is so hard stems from other countries mostly having contact with historic sources and non Germans speaking it in movies. But if you are not native, one will often not grasp the finer points that make the language sound a lot less hard. Like for example the different ways we pronounce the ch sound. There is pretty much three of them. An -uch, an -kch and an more pure -chhhh. If one does not use that in their pronunciation it will make German sound hard and somewhat awkward. And thats just one example.

[@lnlnd]

This piece of art (not just music) gives me chills every time I hear it. It’s so perfectly made, and the video adds a lot to it, making it really a cultural overview of the darkest moments of Germany many want to forget, but they need to be remembered not just as some historical facts but things people would likely to avoid in future in order to break the cycle of violence shown.

I watched the music video multiple times, but I just realized that the beginning is in 16 a.d., so basically 7 years after the Varus battle which means after the first joining of three local German tribes to form a bigger coalition. It is interesting how they articulate this feeling of not loving Germany and wanting to hate it, but not being able to do so. There is an interesting saying: Germans are not proud to be german, Germans are happy to be german.

The mix of rock and techno is called "industrial." Nine Inch Nails, Ministry, Skinny Puppy, Bile, Revolting Cocks, Gravity Kills, Nitzer Ebb are some examples of other industrial artists. NIN and Rammstein are probably the two most popular though. The music at the end during the credits is taken from their song "Sonne".

[@nevermore_nevermore]

Rammstein is not part of Industrial. Here in Germany they are a part of the "Neue Deutsche Härte" - new german hardness. It is a subgenre of Rock.

[@andreasth3r3b3ll3]

It´s so nice to look in a face that says, let´s see what happens, and then the reactions while watching. It´s worth gold :)

[@Nazdreg1]

This song (and video) is tough to understand. ;) The chorus basically sums up the meaning: "Germany! My heart in flames. (I) want to love and condemn you. Your breath (is) cold. So young and yet so old! Germany, your love is curse and blessing. My love, I can't give you." This is a feeling, many Germans have about their "heritage" and the video shows why. In Germany, patriotism doesn't mean cherrypicking any positive aspects of the past and glorify it for some reason, it means realizing how bad it used to be and move on forward with that in mind working towards a future that is better. This is why we are often irritated by conventional acts of patriotism especially when the military is involved.

[@SeverityOne]

The crucial thing is that Germany had the misfortune of losing two world wars. The other countries involved haven't acknowledged their own troubled pasts. For example, Italy swapped sides near the end, and only seems to remember that part. Japan, let's not even go there. But when it comes to the indiscriminate bombing of cities, or imperialism, or slavery... there's a suspicious absence of debate and acknowledgement from the winning side. Combined with the fact that the USA dropped the ball on human rights, and with the careful stewardship of Angela Merkel (whether you agree with her politically or not), it has now fallen to Germany to be the leading country to defend human rights. Considering where it came from, that's a remarkable transition. Obviously, this will not last. Populism and revisionism are rife everywhere, and Germany is no exception. Some politicians on the right are already denying the role of the Wehrmacht in the genocide, for example. Perhaps it will come as a small consolation that, in my opinion, the British and particularly the English are doing their damn best to become the most reviled nation in Europe. Jingoism is back with a vengeance.

[@Nazdreg1]

@@SeverityOne Well, in terms of failed acknowledgement for other countries it is up to them really. More important for me (which is why I don't get patriotism based on the past) is present and future. And yeah, the UK is committing political suicide at the moment, which is a shame for all the people that didn't support the Brexit and should be a telling warning sign for everyone else that direct democracy has serious flaws because people tend to vote with emotion rather than rationality. I am not sure if Germany should lead in terms of human rights. More important is that we need to adhere to them and set our own standards high. There is still a lot left to be desired in that respect. I hope, we will have more courage for our future to take a step forward towards more progressive political decisions based on rationality and scientific evidence and successfully make the revisionist nationalist powers you mentioned obsolete.

[@johndododoe1411]

@@Nazdreg1 We should not forget that the EU imperial leadership has spent the entire Brexit transition with being counterproductive and actively vilifying the UK to create a maximum impact example for anyone else daring to question their union project.

[@Nazdreg1]

@@johndododoe1411 Which is only natural. You can't really expect the EU to congratulate the UK on their decision and then actively supporting it, can you? In terms of "imperial" leadership, I wonder what the English government would do to support Scottish independence... That being said, it is not only the EU actively making it hard for the UK, it is the UK realizing what it means to be on your own and that it is not the Empire anymore. It lost the power struggle and should come to terms with it. It is not the EU who wanted the UK out. Now the EU needs to protect their integrity especially with regards to Ireland, therefore a hard stance in negotiations was to be expected. The UK politicians just miscalculated and failed to plan accordingly. Which was also to be expected given their quite chaotic and arrogant demeanor. And now the people will pay the price, not the politicians.

[@johndododoe1411]

@@Nazdreg1 The thing is that the EU negotiators were being intentionally difficult and stirring up issues. For example they insisted that until the membership ended, UK was not allowed to negotiate future trade relationships for after, forcing the UK into an isolated position. As another example, they refused to negotiate issues in parallel so easy negotiations would be blocked until the difficult issues were settled. Around the Brexit vote, there were other countries with movements to leave using the same legal mechanism. But the brutal treatment of the UK silenced those movements.

I'm a huge Nightwish and Floor fan and always watch your videos on their reactions. I'm also a big Rammstein fan. I'm going to do a BIG DUMP here of info: DO NOT FEEL BAD IF YOU DON'T HAVE TIME TO READ ALL THIS STUFF !! I feel better just knowing I communicated it to you -- tuck it away for reference later if you decide to look at more recent Rammstein live concerts. The problem is while Nightwish fans almost always make good recommendations on live performances to watch, Rammstein fans often recommend just the worst stuff, e.g. the Paris videos and some of the older concerts (unless you're doing the past history for that purpose). So here is Part I on the relevance of their recent tour, and Part II discusses which videos to watch. The band always tries to outdo their prior setup and this was especially true with their 2019 Stadium Tour. As the drummer said: "“All the time we develop a new show, we have a discussion: How we can we top the recent one?”, see “Bigger stage, Bigger crowds, Bigger Flames: A Christoph Schneider Interview”, Nov. 12, 2019, at kzbin.info/www/bejne/hqqkkHlsrbmZmq8. For their “2019 Stadium Tour” Rammstein constructed one of the largest stages ever used for a musical show, indoors or outdoors (stages that large can only be accommodated outdoors anyway). It is just larger than Taylor Swift’s “Reputation” Stadium Tour (I'm actually a bit of a "Swiftie" myself): the width of a football field and six stories high, and a bit larger than either U2’s stage used for their 2009-2011 world tour, the Rolling Stones “No Filter” 2019 tour, or the 2015 AC/DC tour. (Taylor’s shows are run by "Silent House Productions" out of Burbank, California. Rammstein’s shows are run by "Solotech" out of Montreal, "Stageco" out of Belgium, and "WIcreations" out of Germany. Stageco and WIcreations also worked the recent Rolling Stones "No Filter" tour, as well as the U2- 2009 “360 Claw” tour). The Rammstein 2019 tour was the second highest grossing tour in the world of non-English language acts, behind only Korean “K-pop” band “BTS”. In Europe they were just behind Metallica and Ed Sheeran in total receipts: Sheeran; $147.63 million; Metallica $135.56 million; Rammstein; $131.26 million. Despite only playing 31 shows in Europe, for the 2019 world-wide all-languages category of “Rock Groups”, they were #3 behind only the Rolling Stones and Metallica, and in front of: Fleetwood Mac, KISS, Bon Jovi, U2, and the Eagles (in that order), and of all musical genres in all languages world wide, 4th in the world after only the above three “Rock” groups plus BTS, and world wide were ahead of: -- all country performers (#1 Garth Brooks $78.29 million; #2 Eric Church $70.67 million; #3 Florida Georgia Line $52.43 million, and #4 Carrie Underwood $51.86 million); -- all “Pop” groups (#2 Arashi $115.35 million; #3 Jonas Brothers $109.87 million; #4 Backstreet Boys $101.36 million) and -- all “Hip Hop” groups: (#1; Eminem $42.82 million; #2 Drake $33.88 million, etc.). As a result of its success, the Rammstein Stadium Tour was shortlisted for the *Total Productions International* trade association group’s prestigious *“Live Production of the Year 2020 Award”* . Presented in London, England, February 24, 2020 (1,700 in attendance; Black Tie only), the annual awards event recognized excellence in all facets of concert production, including stage design, stage lighting, sound quality, electrical power, crowd security, transportation technology, as well as the individial managers and management companies of each of the tours. The other nominees for Production of the Year were the Chemical Brothers, Marco Borsato, Muse, Stormzy, and Take That. The award ultimately was won by Stormzy, headlining “The Glastonbury Show”, June 28, 2019 (audience of approx. 135,000). Facts about Rammstein’s tour and stage are from Touringdata.Wordpress.com; // Total Productions International: TPiMagazine, at “tpimagazine.com”, November 2019 “Production Profile: Rammstein” (12 pages); // and WIcreations MotionMag, Oct. 2019: “The Rammstein Case”, p. 25-29. Finally, the whole erection of the stage was considered such an elaborate achievement that the band released a time-lapse video just of the stage construction. It takes six days to fully complete the work. It was the set up they did for one of their first shows, at the Rudolf-Harbig-Stadion, Dresden, Germany, June 12, 2019. This is at kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJiqpoWBnNuKh5Y. It has 10,601,937 views just on its own, as of today. The run time is 2 min 38 seconds.

Rats off to ya 🐀 The song, if you know German (if not, who cares? It's still powerful.) you can really hear the pain of both loving and hating your country. Wanting to love it, wanting to receive its love, but can't defend its atrocities. You can hear anger, disappointment, and sadness all the time. Even the first verse sounds like a breakup lol.
