Hello friends! We forgot to invite you to the Community Discord! discord.gg/kczbkrNk5a The idea is not only that they recommend us videos to react, but also to create a space for interaction where we can share different things about rock/metal. There are great bands, projects and sounds going around the world and they deserve to be shared. Thank you very much for the support!😊
This song is Rammsteins take on american cultural imperialism. Its not about them denying the moon landing happened, its about them saying that cultural imperialism is a huge scam.
Its all about "Americanization" and American influence, forced or otherwise on the world. The lyrics and video are perfect combination. Love the dance metaphor, the whole "don't worry if you don't know what to do WE will show you how it's supposed to be done" , that's great. You've got the African tribe eating American style pizza, the monks eating burgers, the holy man with the designer sneakers , the Asian guy dressed like some James Dean style greaser on a motorbike,Santa Claus in Africa and several other things. That strong American influence being common place in the world
"the holy man with the designer sneakers" You mean the Arabian guy praying on the carpet? The Nike sneakers are only a little detail. The main message is in which direction he is praying. You are ware of the oil rigs in the background? You can see the flame on the op of the towers that is there to burn the gas that is also coming out.
That's the first, the apparantly , layer. Other meaning ist more hidden. "Die Freiheit spielt auf allen Geigen" - Freedom ist the big american Story, an ist been told with all kinds of propaganda. "Musik kommt aus dem weißen Haus" music comes from the White House - in German it means Who let the music play, has the power. "Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse" In front of Paris ist Mickey Mouse OK, the french people give the statuette of Freedom to News York. And back Mickey Mouse? There is much more, you have to dig deep!
the band are wareing Astronauts suits to celebrate America greatest achievement of landing on the moon but there still a large % of Americans who think its was all fake, all classic Rammstein irony
Rammstein are from East-Germany. If you don't understand what East-Germany was, look it up. You should have learned this in history classes. In essence they experienced both worlds, the socialist/communist world and the "democracy" that has been bestowed upon them. They are not really mocking, they are observing what is happening in the world at the time and putting that information right in your face. This song in now 19 years old, and it is still relevant to this day.
Hi, friend! Thank you very much for sharing this information with us. We have done a more detailed analysis of this song. The title is a simple hook, we don't think they are making fun of it at all. It is an excellent song that, as you say, continues and will continue to be valid. Greetings from Argentina!
As an American who loves Rammstein, I gotta tell ya... I love this song. Musically, fantastic, as always. Thematically, true. True. Non-jingoistic Americans understand our faults, and we do try to elect better politicians and protest and all that stuff. But it's tough. Only an imbecile would see the band's message and get offended.
Thank you American government for this multi cultural hell hole. Bombed over 1000 German cities . Murdered 300,000 in Dresden . Amongst many other war crimes . Can you honestly blame the few Germans who are still pissed? Sadly many Germans are cucked. Brainwashed and don't know their own history . Taught to feel shame for their own greatness. Seriously wtf.
It's interesting to see how many TH-camrs reacting to Rammstein are unable or too lazy to find out the correct pronunciation of the name of this band, even in a technically advanced age that offers a lot of voice language translators here on the Internet.
Hello Marty. Thanks for your comment. Here in Argentina the band is known by that pronunciation. That is probably why you often hear it mispronounced. The same goes for "Disney". In Argentina it is pronounced as "Dis-nei" not "Dis-ni". In any case, we understand your concern and we are sorry that it has ruined the reaction. Greetings!
@@OhMyMole Just be aware that this band is German and not Spanish, so its name as you pronounce it means nothing at all and no one in Germany including Till Lindemann would probably understand you. Another thing is that if I have a favorite band and I can't even pronounce it correctly their name, so it's not only a bit embarrassing, but it's actually disrespectful towards them (if it's public like this on the internet). I think it's not that difficult for an common Latin American to learn just one disyllabic German word, is it? If you listen to the Rammstein song of the same name, or the Rammlied song, you can hear them singing their name several times, so you can easily learn it from there. Good luck with your next job and greetings from Europe.
@@OhMyMole Hay una palabra alemana que describe mis sentimientos al leer el comentario de @Marty: Fremdschämen (el sentimiento de vergüenza por lo que hace o dice otra persona). No se preocupen por la pronunciación del nombre de la banda, es casi seguro que los miembros de Rammstein serían los primeros en reírse de ese comentario. Creo poder decirlo después de haber leído los dos libros de Flake y escuchar asiduamente su podcast de música en la rbb Radio 1. Si lo pueden decir a la alemana, ¡regio! Si no, qué más da.
@@PEC33 Hola! Gracias por el comentario y el mensaje con buenas energías. De igual forma estudiaremos como se dice para pronunciarlo mejor la próxima vez 😅 Saludos desde Argentina!
While I don't necessarily blame anyone for another pronounciation (I shudder to think what names I might butcher with german as my mother tongue and english as my second language), what is more of a pet peeve for me is reactions in general never looking up the lyrics when reacting to a song in a language they don't speak. Rammstein's videos usually tell a story on their own without them, but they ALWAYS add so, so much more. And other artists may not have that advantage at all. If I want to analyse something, why ignore half of what it's made out of? Either way, kudos to the two of you for reacting to it and not getting so distracted by him singing Mickey Mouse that the entire critisism aspect of the song gets lost. Sadly, a lot of reactions to this song I have come across are so amused by some visuals and that part they they somehow even miss the "this is not a love song" bit entirely.

Amerika ist wunderbar, we're all living in America. This is not a love song. Art should also provoke.😅🤘👍👌
This song is Rammsteins take on american cultural imperialism. Its not about them denying the moon landing happened, its about them saying that cultural imperialism is a huge scam.
How do you know that they deny or not the "Moon Landing"?!?😂😂😂
Maybe Moon Landing is just another US scam. 😂

"Und vor Paris steht Mickey Mouse" In front of Paris ist Mickey Mouse

Not to mention Wernher von Braun and hundreds of other German NASA scientists

It is funny that american reaction on this song is like: Oh, Mickey Mouse!... Oh, Coca Cola! Xdd😆😂🤣

Can’t be mocking if it’s true
😅

not mocking, criticizing!
Thank you American government for this multi cultural hell hole.
MATECITO
Siii! Vamos River Plate 😊
You can't even insult us, in America. We don't mind be criticized a little here and there, from the lesser nations. We think it's adorable.
Do you mean the Nordic European Aryan countries or the „Shithole“ African countries?
🤔
But time is changing everything.
@@franzmann666franz5 Time may change me, but I can't change time. /shrug
@@Tijuanabill What is a lesser nation ??????
This is not a love song. The US is only 4% of the world. Amerika, sometimes we dont´t like you.
Not mocking, showing the reach of American culture... And learn how to pronounce the name of the bsnd, please. Otherwise great reaction
