THIS WAS SO CREEPY BUT SO PERFECTLY DONE! First Time Hearing Rammstein - Mein Herz Brennt Reaction!

[@boqndimitrov8693]

Till's smile can make even the Joker run away screaming!!

[@jeroenwubbels7824]

yeah right!? Even Batman takes flight seeing him in a dark alley

[@michaellynch9550]

That’s smile he does in the middle is everything. He could be a character in the nightmare before Christmas.

[@donkfail1]

It's his ability to smile only with his mouth. Not a hint of joy in the rest of the face. Scary!

[@smward87]

@@donkfail1 Yup was just about to comment this. The smile is meant to alleviate the fears of the children he is singing too, but it's a fake smile that can't hide the pain in his eyes.

[@matthewrandom4523]

"Now dear children pay good attention" is the first line from the German TV show "Little sandman" which is broadcasted every day on German TV at around 6 pm. The show is less than 5 minutes long and there's a short story for toddlers pleasures before they go to bed. Of course, Rammstein offer a completely different perception to this topic ...

[@MetalphysicalMel]

Till's father was a poet. Werner Lindemann

[@arnonyhm4055]

There are references to the German children's TV show "Sandmännchen" (little sandman) that told the children that it is now time to go to sleep but before he tells a nice animated story. It started with the first and third line of the Rammstein lyrics "Nun liebe Kinder gebt fein acht, ich hab euch etwas mitgebracht." (Now dear children pay good attention, I have brought you something ...) Of course those stories were not scary. In German the "burning heart" can have two meanings, first enthusiasm or love for something or someone and second being very sad, depressive, or traumatized. In this case it is surely the second meaning. As far as I remember it from the making of, the location was a former orphanage. For this song - I assume - there are as many interpretations as listeners. So here is just my personal interpretation. The song is clearly about nightmares. But it has also references to child abuse. E.g. in West-Germany in the 60th and 70th there were so called "Kindererholungsheim" (children's convalescent home). Parents - in a large scale - were told that their children seemed to be sickly and some weeks in those institutes would be good for them. The health insurance paid for it. In fact, it was just a big business where children were "stored" at minimal costs. There was also plenty of physical and psychological violence and many children came back traumatized. (A lot of them are still suffering from this "experience".) As the members of Rammstein came from East-Germany, I'm not sure whether there were similar kind of cases in their environment which was even more restrictive than that in the west. From this perspective Till's role in the song/video seems to be a mixture of demon and victim in the same character. Like those children coming back from those "Kindererholungsheim", still carrying the demon (trauma) with them. Or maybe Till is the personification of pure pain.

[@andersgranstrom7128]

A masterpiece! 😍😍😍 Thanks guys!

[@froschfreak1699]

When Chuck Norris peed in his bed he was dreaming about Till.

[@fezzman9898]

It's about sandmännchen - Little sandman. A german childrens show.

[@kvas101]

This video were filmed at Beelitz Heilstätten near Berlin. A huge old Hospital complex abanded for a long time.

[@amykryptonite]

I think it's also been used in the Valkyrie movie with Tom cruise

[@mikeschmidt2531]

Eines der besten Lieder von Rammstein !

[@ThomasKnip]

Tha subtitles are very nicely done and translated correctly, capturing the mood with the font.

[@teckyify]

The original is the (Eastern) German children show Der Sandmann", where a song is played and the Sandmann puts children asleep when it's time to sleep. This is a creepy version of the Sandmann. It could be interpreted either way, either he's shielding the children from harm, or he causes harm.

[@Rednosei]

Great Piano interpretation and great Reaction to the Song! 👍

[@Pilutta100]

I'm so inlove with this video. I see it that he really have good intentions, but are scary af. Sacrificing himself for the children. My interpretation. I don't know the lore of this story. So so hauntingly beautiful. Hugs from Sweden.

[@-Knife-]

This is such a beautiful song.

[@TomTomson81]

Till's cuts are real and self-inflicted for this video. The man does everything for his art. In principle, the song is an alternative to the good night song for children. I think even adults would flee there. 😂 "Blackmail" is mistranslated here. It should be called pressing. Apply pressure to the eyelids. Of this song there is of course still the original Rammstein sound variant ala "Du Hast"

[@234i9]

So edgy

[@voiceover2191]

True "erpressen" literally means blackmailing but not in this context. He has the power to press the children's eyelids down, i.e. make them fall asleep

[@rayandruner7077]

You certainly should check out their official video to this song, it is even more haunting if you see them there.

[@donkfail1]

- We're going out tonight, so we have a babysitter coming over soon. - Who? - It's uncle Till. You like him, right? - Well... - Maybe he'll sing you a lullaby. - NOOOOOO!

[@annegretkasten6277]

I think he must have sung his children a lullaby 😂

[@ROBOTRIX_eu]

I like both versions, this piano version, but the band version as well..maybe more..

[@vanevanhaagen4011]

This is only my take on it. But the Fairy-tales we know today were originally very, very dark and sort of cautionary stories for children to avoid dangers, for instance Hansel and Gretel: do not trust strangers and not run away in the woods. Or Red Riding Hood (Rotkäppchen), do not enter the woods alone. The originals certainly did not have happy endings either. Little Red Riding Hood for example: "The better to eat you with!", he responds, at which point the wolf jumps out of the bed and eats her as well. Then he falls asleep. In Charles Perrault's version of the story, the first to be published, the tale ends here.

[@johankaewberg8162]

He speaks until the sun rules. And his heart burns. I always interpreted it such that nightmares are the actual reality.

[@hunter-te1tp]

Face Check😊.....hard Time🖤 but....For a lyrical shock from Rammstein, I recommend the song “Stein um Stein”

[@kenwilmarth68]

I saw them in 2022 and it was the most amazing concert ever

[@TheHitmanSF]

A lot of people like the piano version but me personally the other version is my favorite.

[@Ludwig123179]

yes, I pick chellos every time :D

[@ievakiltinaviciene7574]

I love original as well

[@dirkschoppler2081]

Both are great and different. The piano Version is for me more creepy. The original version give more goosebumps.

[@TiborgSGE]

Let's just agree that both versions are masterpieces.

[@AKayfabe]

yes me also. I like the non piano version better

[@dushyantpande4348]

[@txmale1977]

I didn't know they did this live. Omg I need to see that

[@christopherfoldie]

You need to check out "Ich tu der veh" live at madison square garden. You will get to sample the range of his voice. Then check out Freuer Frei.

[@koabua1973styria]

That was FINSTER ! 😱😱😱

[@WilliamPatience-ic8st]

Feuer frei is my favorite.

[@thefluxcapacitor1]

This is the video that convinced me that Till should play a Bond villain in a future movie.

[@furkanok8253]

You should also try the original version. This is just kinda a piano cover.

[@Ole-vu9yj]

As far as I know, he doesn't play a specific person or character there. He embodies the fear itself, which haunts children at night for various reasons and steals their sleep. He IS the fear. He feeds on the children's fear and tears. They are his elixir of life. But when it gets light in the morning, his power is broken and he has to go. Dark stories told to children have a certain tradition in Germany (fairy tales by the Brothers Grimm, Max and Moritz, Struwwelpeter,...). I think that was the way to prepare children for life - to tell them that there are not only butterflies and flowers out there, but also evil animals and people.

[@voiceover2191]

The song has a fairytale quality, where Till is a supernatural being, demon, that survives by having children's hot tears injected into his veins. The tears come from all sorts of supernatural beings giving the children nightmares, after Till made them fall asleep. But he, Till, suffers from his existence, he doesn't enjoy causing the children to be tormented, but it is his way of surviving, his existence.

[@janosfernandez945]

Then again this is an acoustic rendition of the original song, maybe even creepier :) !

Prefer the other version. And you reckon this is creepy. You have to do the official video to Mein Teil. It’s CREEPY!! 🤘🤘 kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnPZqJZ-ab2LbLcsi=LNLbOOxgLNQoN4JJ

[@CarlosPT-hb6zb]

Here in this video, we don't have Rammstein. It's only Till and piano. Galactic voice. Till has at the same time, all these "voices": operatic, soft, hard, metallic, rough, fine, bass, sweet, bitter, etc etc, we could put hundreds of adjectives to classify his voice.

He is supposed to be the 'sandman' of German culture, if i remember right

[@WarZ1984]

react to the live rock version!

[@HanMoP]

You got microphones but why recording the sound in the whole room?

[@heidibrown342]

Their best / creepiest song / video is for Mein Teil. Before seeing this one you need to do the research, it is about a real person / situation that happened in Germany. Til said that if anyone was going to do a song about it , it should be them

[@TheSkorrrp]

А wienner blut если я правильно название написал? Для меня она самая дикая у Рамштайн и на реальной истории.

[@sinisterkate5308]

yes right on the money, before christianity. a lot of the old disney cartoon movies are old folklores that were sanitize by disney to make them into lovable childrens movies. it cool to see people react when they are portrayed in the original text. german migration into us was large and after ww2 german culture and heritage was almost taboo. so if you watch a childrens movie and it's scary and dark its the way it should be, not remade into a scary movie.

[@rudolfbart]

Hi from germany well am not a till expert but he grow up in a childem home neve saw the mom and was probly a east german place dont know how he was treated there you hear it from the somg mutter mother not all moms are realy moms,some moms have no heart and sadly they give the kids to the heartless woman and not to the dads who would have cared deep hearted ok I am swifting of sadly I seen it a few times am 65 and recording to my grandmom she had a bad step mom not the ones you see in dysney gosh I have to carm down right now my heart burns

[@u.z.9383]

Nice video! You asked for Fairy Tales: This song refers to the Sandmann, a well-known German TV Show, but its not creepy. The next fairy tale is the "pied piper", in German "der Rattenfänger von Hameln". There is a poem by Goethe: "Der Erlkönig" (the elf's king,) that is very popular. Schubert has written a music score. If you're interested: There's a very nice animation with English subs under kzbin.info/www/bejne/gIScYqNjq9KGnJIsi=TRTcjeW1T6-KQvaf "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" is another creepy ballad by Goethe, animated by Walt Disney, ft. M.Mouse. kzbin.info/www/bejne/eGWwXmhqmKqXq9Esi=OKViD7GywYcyHD-O

I don't like these SUBTITLE videos they are blocking the view on many details and are distracting. Please also react to the making of videos. And i suggest reading the real Grimm versions of Snow White and other fairy tales. They are not so pastel toned like the diznee covers

I hate the lame ass effects on the subtitles. Wrecks the feel of the video

They are good musicians, but I stood an understand why people here in North America gets so into bands, which are speaking something other than English… I don’t wanna have to take German lessons or read along to know what the lyrics are just like with that ridiculous band baby metal. The scorpions are a pretty good band, they’re from Germany and their songs are in English.

[@robertdysonn]

@@briantingley7316 well I’m sure it would be if you’re not smart enough to care about lyrics and I didn’t say anything about the best band ever. I just said they learned how to speak English since the biggest sales opportunities are here in an English-speaking country. It was an example is what that’s called not a declaration. if you want instrumentals with babble through them that you can understand then enjoy. What I do know is that there are so much better heavy bands from the United States when it comes to musicianship and oddly enough, you can actually understand the words they put in there too.
