OK, German here, (deep sigh)... My wife was diagnosed with stage IV cancer in 2021 and as huge Rammstein fans, we were very eager to see what their 2nd single of their upcoming album would be. Biiiig video countdown on March 10, 2022 - we did not want to be a second late with all of Germany watching, maybe the servers would shut down?? Then, grabbing the tablet and I joined my wife on the sofa - "Zeit"... Interesting title, always good for a surprise, these guys... And surprised we were... Like by a 10 pound sledge to the forehead on a sunny day at the beach... I cannot remember being more profoundly shaken by whatever happened to me at any other point in my life. A few days before this video came out, my wife was notified that her fairytale would not have a happy end. So, this video reflected the situation she as the morituri and we as a family were directly affected by the impact of her illness. If we would have had the powers to turn back time, we would have given anything... 😢❤❤❤ My wife succumbed to her illness on July 31, 2022, only a few weeks later... This band and their songs will always have a special place in my heart, for a multitude of reasons...
Meine Frau starb im Juni 2021, nach 26 Jahren Ehe(Lymphom IV) , ich fühle mit dir. Eine absolute Katastrophe und dieses Lied bringt einen zurück, zu den perfekten Momenten. Die man aber vielleicht in dem Moment nicht erkannt hat. Ja, wenn man nur die Zeit anhalten könnte oder etwas zurückdrehen. Dieses Video ist einfach nur Kunst.
Angst is really nice. But you also can have a look to his own separate Band called “Lindemann” some the first Album is completely in English. Crazy text. But not many videos. “Praise abort” “fish on” are English examples. New ist “Sport Frei” its a call against “Arbeit macht frei” what Hitler said but the Song is an artwork. It’s about the normal day at work. Even with lyrics hard to understand. Feel free to ask about this song
Adieu would be the perfect way to close off the Rammstein rabbit hole. Which means they should leave it for last. There are still some amazing songs to go through.
You missed the last breath at the end! Never stop a Rammstein Video until the end! And a birth is the most normal ting in life, I saw that live 2 times and was the best moments of my life
3 figures (Zeithüter) are directly inspired by "The Norms" in Norse mythology. It's so close to the mythology I'm sure it's not coincidental. Quite beautiful meaning and lots of connections with the video (3 figures, past present future, time, fate, the "sand tree" in the middle with women given birth can be a representation of Yggdrasil (world tree), they are present at birth, etc.). I am glad you reacted this one, big Rammstein fan here🙂 My next reaction suggestions is Mein Herz brennt piano version🙂 I swear nothing controversial there🙂
2 weeks before my friend lost her battle with cancer I got to see her, I had managed to house sit a place right near where she was staying. This had just come out & we were just standing there hugging in a sunbeam rocking as I was singing this softly to her. It was the perfect moment & I'm so thankful for it. Our last words were "I love you". Her partner called me one night saying that she had a steep decline & the dr had just been & she was on morphine. Kept the line open. I heard her parents & brothers. 3 years later she slipped away with a smile on her face. This will always remind me of her, it's been a long 18 months
I lost my darling best friend Meredith in 1997, aged just 34 leaving 2 little girls, from non Hodgkins Lymphoma. I went with her for chemo, I went to her oncologist appointments, she and the girls stayed with my then 5 yr old son and I after a failed bone marrow transplant and she was so weak. I got her a wheelchair so that we could go down the street and look at lovely clothes. She was so vibrant, sassy, funny, beautiful and loyal and I will never have anyone else like her in my life. I miss that girl in my soul every day of my life. She is a grandma now and one of her little granddaughters is just like her. I still cry for her, like a hole in my life that will never be healed. My condolences to you, I know how it feels, we always made sure to say I love you after every phone call and every visit. I am surrounded in my bedroom by beautiful artwork that she drew for me that I received after she died so she is always with me. Just the most gorgeous soul. ♥️
The 3 hooded figures exist in several (Greek, Roman, Norse...) mythologies, and they're deities responsible for shaping the course of human lives. In Norse, they're the Norns, Urd, Verdandi and Skuld, in ancient Greek, it's the Fates, Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos. Clotho spins the "thread" of human life, Lachesis dispenses it and Atropos cuts it (thus symbolizing the moment of death). Please check out "Angst", "Adieu", and all the other great videos they've made. All official videos have subtitles (automatically generated) that are quite good, better than the one you just read (ok, you get the general meaning, but there are poetic gems and should have been translated differently). Like "Ohne Dich", great song and video, too. Some great songs don't have any video, unfortunately, like "Dalai-Lama" (incredible song). But they're obviously very educated, erudite guys who draw inspiration from very deep phylosophical subjects, classical literature, history, true crime, and sometimes they poke fun at some human flaws... I think the comments are deactivated because of people who are easily offended and who would flood the comment sections with hateful rants... Who needs that, right?
I was very impressed by your conversation about the meaning of the lyrics. Art only becomes interesting when we are faced with something that we cannot fully explain straight away.
I never really watch reaction videos, but I really enjoy yours about Rammstein! I feel that you understand and respect the incredible work and art of this unique band. So thank you.
I'm really looking forward to it. If you liked ZEIT, you will definitely also like the ballads OHNE DICH (Without you) and STIRB NICHT VOR MIR (Don't die before i do) feat. Sharleen Spiteri from the band TEXAS fell.The new song/videos are very profound: ZEIT (concerns us all), ADIEU (it's about farewell, some say they sing about the death of a good friend of the band, some say the band is processing the difficult time during the recording in 2001 for the 3. Album MUTTER, which almost led to the band breaking up) ANGST (influence of the media), ZICKZACK (very funny video about plastic surgery and not to forget RADIO (this is a personal topic of the band, which connects them with most East Germans. It is about banning western music in the former GDR before the Berlin Wall fell. The band members lived in the former GDR). The old songs are all great, but the newer ones are somehow more adult. I'm looking forward to further Rammstein reactions. The channel " Educated Marine" has English subtitles. Greetings from Germany and Merry Christmas 🎅🎄💝🎁
(German) Stimme dir zu, würde aber gerne vorher die Pianoversion von "Mein Herz brennt" hören ^^ Auch "Links, 2, 3, 4" ist genial. Hach ja, Rammstein ;)
Please do Adieu next, it's their latest & probably their most cinematic music video so far, and you should watch through the credits, the beauty of the location is wonderful & the credits read like a big budget movie.
If you interpret the sand as time in this video, then you can see in this scene how everyone deals with time differently. 13:31 Fight against the Time 13:38 Go with the Flow of Time 13:42 Play with the Time you have 13:44 Go against the Flow of Time Oh and please watch always to the last second. At the End of this Video you can hear a "last breath" or "first breath" (there are different interpretations)
No artist like Rammstein. Layers upon layers, and artistic integrity. Nothing is half-assed. Whenever i see an anouncement for a new video i get instant goosebumps and feel like a child before christmas again. And it's always something different. This video and song came completely unexpected. As a full packacke (concept, appeareance, music, lyrics, live show and videos) no one tops Rammstein.
My best moment was when I went outside of town (1 mile away) into a forest. I live in Czech Republic near a border, so forests are everywhere. And the all encompassing nature with trees, fluffy looking grass, birds signing, it was incredible. It honestly didn't feel real, sunlight scattering in the trees, it was very magical.
The most underrated scene in this movie is the harvest scenery, I think. Pretty sure someone stated that already somewhere, I just don‘t have the ZEIt to read them all… ;) The harvest scene is cramped in between the wild crescendo and the heartbreaking death of Olivers daughter, the moment, when everybody is oberwhelmed by this „flip“ of the timeline. It‘s just the reverse order when the child dies before the parent and it is the most devastating thing imaginable if you have to bury your own child. That‘s when everyone cracks and shed some tears. We are released in the harvest scene right after the wild, struggling crescendo, the music stops, the late summer scenery is warm and peaceful, Tills voice gets soft and calm. A scenery of timeless(!) beauty (zeitlose Schönheit). Because that is the way, mankind did bring in the harvest for ages, for its entire settled history. And yet they are using the scythe, the tool of the grim reaper (in german: „Sensenmann“, literally „scythe man“). And I guess it is again on purpose, that the visuals remind you of the amish people, whose way of life seems to be a „time capsule“, because they refuse to „go with time“. And they do have some german ancestry, don‘t they? I‘m sure someone else pointed this out way better than I did, I apologize for iterations (and bad english). But these details don‘t get clear on first vision. You can‘t just do a „first reaction“ to a masterpiece of this dimension and realise every detail in it. I watched it several dozen times and still discover new gems. To be honest, some would have never come to my mind without these comment sections. But as we know this 40 year old guy, he will show this movie to all his friends one by one to see them flabbergasted, right? Cool T-Shirt, btw.
Love your Rammstein reactions! This song makes me cry everytime I listen to it. Till's poetry is wonderful. There are so many songs to react: Mein Herz brennt (piano version Video) Mein Herz brennt ( Video or live) Fantastic live: Mutter (Paris) Sonne (2019), Feuer frei (Moskau). Schwarz( song and lyrics) ....and so many more
That song was so emotional. It drew me in and invoked such feeling. Its about life, death, rebirth, time and how moments in life pass so quickly. It was so beautiful. Till sang that with so much emotion and beauty. His voice was so amazing. I've never heard him sing quite like that. So pure. ❤
Austrian (german country) here. Such a great & thoughtful song & reaction of yours. I always go down this path too when i have these moments. I know that one day my mom, my dad, my friends will be gone & theres no way stopping it. Time is merciless. I survived a drug od Jan 2024 with extreme luck. I should be dead tbh. I see it at a second chance. Existence is weird man
Rammstein videos are always a total work of art with texts that can have a wide variety of meanings and visualization. You could also understand it like Rorschach board pictures. Everyone finds themselves in their own reality.
Man, I subscribed just because oh these Rammstein reactions. And since I'm always searching for reactions related to my favourite band, i bumped into your channel. I had fun watching your reaction, guys. I even watched it for 4-5 times. But you are only at the beggining with your Rammstein jouney, there is hell of a lot more to discover!! Can't wait to see your reactions to Adieu, Zick Zack or Angst, or maybe some older stuff like Keine Lust, Mann Gegen Mann, or the original video for Mein Teil (I saw your reaction to the live version). Not to mention that there is a tone of hidden gems like Halt, Vergiss Uns Nicht or Gib Mir Deine Augen - all powered by the huge poetic talent of Till. By the way, greetings from Romania!
I’m so glad that you ‘get it’ now, as to why we love them so much. ❤ . As others have said, Angst is another masterpiece. 😊😊. Adieu made me cry…….. it had a plethora of Easter eggs it that pull you in further.
Great Song, Great Video! An Info about the Song: Norne (goddess of fate in Norse Mythology) In Norse Mythology, the Norns are female beings who determine fate. Three Women of destiny are mentioned by Name: They are called Urd (Fate), Verdandi (the becoming) and Skuld (Guilt; that which is to be).
I agree B.P.......I got into them just before covid...heavy stuff is great....but they're other stuff is beautiful....love the reaction, love rammstein.
The Song MUTTER (live in Paris) is a rammstein special . They do not play it live anymore because it is a Song that they have a to deep conection to when they almost broke up . Till said in an interview. That Song is Gold. Instruments can cry . Lyrics with the Song is a must . Peace from germany.
It is a legit masterpiece. It really is. I was so floored the first time I saw this. After repeated viewings, I still find myself engaged & digesting it in new ways.
You guys must take a look at this Rammstein Cover from Apocalyptica feat. Nina Hagen called SEEMANN (the German word for sailor). Very impressive song!!!
Rammstein has many songs like that this "deeper" type of song for example: Seemann, Ohne Dich, Frühling in Paris those are all musically different slower and more emotion. Greetings from Germany! ^^
I would LOVE to see y’all’s take on both “Angst” and the piano version of “Mien Herz Brennt”!!!! Both videos are insanely profound and show 2 potentially new to you sides of Rammstein. Cheers
Please do the piano version of Mein Herz brennt!!! As always good you guys react on Rammstein, but this piano version is so freakin good! Cheers from Germany
Time.... That elusive quantified thing we don't see but we wish we had more. Time is what we wish we have had with our loved ones. This song has been on my list on replay quite a lot since last March when I lost my mother. I wish I had more time with her I wish i could have done more for her but It wasn't meant to be. That song talks about time and the time we have or wish we had with friends and loved ones.
The sand stands also for the thing. A thing was a place where the oldest and experienced man of a village come together to discuss topics. Sometimes they drank alcohol and slept there. And when they got up the next morning and the ideas where still there, they knew it was good
@BlackPegasusRaps. As a parent to a single daughter, I totally connect with that joy and fear in those “perfect moments”. The idea of me not being there to protect her is one of my only genuine fears. All I do is what you implied. Enjoy the moments with her and save those feelings for when it won’t impact her. Sounds like you’re doing the same man. I’m proud that I can do that for her.
Please, next time turn on "automatic English subtitles", this would help you so much more understanding the song rather than reading them before or after the song. Steps First: Turn on captions, which will be in German. Second: click on settings icon next to CC and click on "Subtitles/CC" Third: Click on "English (auto-generated)" Fourth: enjoy the video with English subtitles
Yeah, but auto generated subtitles are often very hit and miss (more miss) when it comes to lyrical content. A real bilingual person will translate the meaning way better.
@@SmeagolTheGreatThis doesn't matter if the viewer isn't bilingual (as most Americans are) and knowing what the content you're currently watching is about is far more important than an accurate translation. If accuracy is important, anyone is free to read the lyrics, which (in the case of Ramstein) are not always translatable literally
@@cleancoder3838 But it does matter, even more so if the viewer is not bilingual. At least this way he or she knows the words should be mostly correct and not some rubbish the yt translator misinterpreted, as so often happens. If the words on screen don't make sense, it's even more distracting than pausing and reading the correct ones from a website imo.
I must interject between you two : the English auto translations are sketchy, but help people who do not know any German. Best example of sketchiness is from Mein herz brennt - the verse .. die Augenlieder zu erpressen.. - erpressen CAN mean, in corporate jargon, "to blackmail", but it's moronic to say .. blackmail the eyelids.. (how can you even), when the very word is so similar in English : er-pressen : to press (down), so : I have the power to press down the eyelids, which is self explanatory. Well, maybe, for me it's easier, being fluent in 3 languages from 3 language groups (Slavic, Germanic, Romanic), and I hear similarities in roots and sounds and connect the dots...
Great reaction! It's like this: at first you only think the music is great. Then you discover how the lyrics are. When you talk to other people about their meaning, you realize how many layers there can be. Even your own mood or life situation can change the meaning. Yes, that's exactly why the fans love them.
Man, these videos are so cool! I love the little banter but I also love how deep you go for the meaning! Schopenhauer wrote and detailed a bit in his book "World, as will and representation" what is talked about at 10:05.
When you understand the full lyrics it is so awesome. I mean many songs are complex and have a destinct message. Sometimes you have to listen to it hundreds of times and extremly think about it, together with the video, its crazy. Zeit and some other song make me almost cry, because they are so deep, so full of emotions. especially when you have something to relate with, like my mothers and my fathers death and struggle. My mother had cancer 3 times and the last one, she knew that she will die and almost exactly when, my father was in coma for several weeks and we know that he could hear us, but he couldnt react, the only reaction we saw was, puls, breathing, uncontroled eyemovement when we discussed a topic nearby where he normaly wants to say something!
You've got to watch Adieu too, its about the same concept: passing on/saying goodbye. The music video of Adieu is also a mini movie in the theme of matrix/the dark knight/joker of the band members stuck in the purgatory. The song is also colossal, they played as a closing song in the 22/23 european stadium tour
Never cut off Rammstein's outros. It's all part of the artistic qualities you were so eloquently conveying about that masterpiece. You may want to go back and watch it offline just for your own gratification. That being said...another awesome Rammstein reaction. Keep up the good work bro. 😊👍 If you haven't done "Adieu" yet, I think you'll really enjoy it.
I think had two perfect moments and quite a few great ones I fondly remember. But the great ones don't even come close to the perfect ones. One when I was at school, like 15-16 maybe. It was the last day before christmas break. I got the results from a physics exam back that went way better than I had tought. I had made plans with my friends to watch Lord of the Rings part 1 in the cinema that night and I was mega hyped for that movie. We got loge balcony seats reserved for it (yes our local cinema had those, it's like 100 yrs old now). I took a detour going home to pick up a novel for school that I had ordered at the local book store. I browsed for a while, especially their video game section and when I left with the book, it had gone dark (it's pitch black at like 5 pm here in winter) with christmas lights coming on and it had started snowing. I do not quite now why. But in that moment, bliss was all I could feel and I am so very glad my brain made a hard copy of that day... The other moment I was slightly older and involved my first girl friend. But I feel that's quite enough sharing for one comment 😀
One of my favorite things about Black Pegasus reacting to all these videos is that you can tell how much all these new influences are making him even more mature in his artistic taste (not only music) and you can feel his mind is going full speed at 200%. He not only wants to understand what he experiences, he wants to digest everything and pour his new sensibilities into his own art and I cannot wait for the fruits of his efforts...
if you want more of this type of Rammstein you should check out "Adieu", its a a song with beautiful lyrics and an amazing music video. Other ones that you'd propably like are "Ohne Dich" (has a music video) and "Mutter" (an amazing live from Paris video)
I feel like the moments where you are content and happy with life are what you see when life runs before your eyes in the last moments. Thus you have to be the best you can, for yourself and others. Then there will be no regret, no sadness.
TL (Till Lindemann) sings High German, by the way, so the normal translation should work halfway. I am German and of course I would be very happy if you could experience Rammstein in full. I agree though, subtitles distract from everything else. But Rammstein always has a chorus and you could read the verses individually. They are profound and even as a native speaker, I have to listen to the songs more often. Maybe I'm just too cerebral sometimes. I recommend "Mein Herz brennt" (Piano Version) ("my heart is burning") to you. A really different direction of their art, just TL and the piano as background music to Till's acting. Best regards from Germany
@@CavHDeu ansonsten sehenswerte Reaktion. Aber er sprang durch den Abspann. Ich verstehe es nicht! Haben Leute keine Zeit mehr? Okay es sind Amerikaner. Der Linke hat alles begriffen. Servus 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Oh ..one last thing...I watched Zeit when it premiered...COVID raging...Putin started his shit in Ukraine...I cried like a baby afterwards...your right Pegasus...this is a MASTERPIECE...Yet I can't get any of my friends to watch them let alone listen to them...I barely know a lick of German but take the time to research the lyrics...no one comes close to them live or in videos
OK, German here, (deep sigh)...
My wife was diagnosed with stage IV cancer in 2021 and as huge Rammstein fans, we were very eager to see what their 2nd single of their upcoming album would be.

As a Fellow German, Mein Beileid
Mein Beileid. Lost my hubby to cancer in July 2019. And then this song came to me…
Meine Frau starb im Juni 2021, nach 26 Jahren Ehe(Lymphom IV) , ich fühle mit dir. Eine absolute Katastrophe und dieses Lied bringt einen zurück, zu den perfekten Momenten. Die man aber vielleicht in dem Moment nicht erkannt hat. Ja, wenn man nur die Zeit anhalten könnte oder etwas zurückdrehen. Dieses Video ist einfach nur Kunst.

"Angst" from the same album is another masterpiece.
Angst is my favorite and need play to the end
I agree, Angst definitely needs to be reacted to! 💯

Yes, Angst is a masteerpiece. The meaning behind it with thr video is amazing
You did this comment and you knew of the Storm that would be comin😂😂😂 as german myself it is a indeed a little funny if it's badly translated
Zeit is a wonderful Masterpiece!
Next *Adieu Rammstein* pls 🙂
Adieu would be the perfect way to close off the Rammstein rabbit hole. Which means they should leave it for last. There are still some amazing songs to go through.
yes great one@@melissa.w.e
I agree , meaning of this song is unbelievably , this is a truly masterpiece.. br from Finland...
You missed the last breath at the end! Never stop a Rammstein Video until the end! And a birth is the most normal ting in life, I saw that live 2 times and was the best moments of my life
Not the last, the FIRST breath, isn't it obvious?
Your first birth was the very best moment of your life (this one you witnessed with closed eyes).
Hi, watching into your face while you see this video, I have the same feeling…. Pensive and thinking of my live and what will come next
You schould never stop credits of Rammstein. This is a No-Go. You missed beautiful pictures and the last breath of a human being at the end.
Till Lindermann is a poet. I have a book of his poetry, “ In stillen Nächten Gedichte.” They have it English, if you’re interested in his work.
3 figures (Zeithüter) are directly inspired by "The Norms" in Norse mythology. It's so close to the mythology I'm sure it's not coincidental. Quite beautiful meaning and lots of connections with the video (3 figures, past present future, time, fate, the "sand tree" in the middle with women given birth can be a representation of Yggdrasil (world tree), they are present at birth, etc.).
I am glad you reacted this one, big Rammstein fan here🙂
My next reaction suggestions is Mein Herz brennt piano version🙂 I swear nothing controversial there🙂
😮
i 2nd Mein Herz brennt piano version!!!!
I third the Mein Herz Brennt piano version.
I think of that video, almost daily.
@@deathmetalchili6902 beautiful Till vocals in this one❤️🙂
@LenaJulita absolutely.
They're quite haunting.
NEVER ever skip a Rammstein outro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And the INTRO wars destroyet to !
so true

Always, always, always watch Rammstein clips till the end! This is important part of the whole story!
The most underrated scene in this movie is the harvest scenery, I think. Pretty sure someone stated that already somewhere, I just don‘t have the ZEIt to read them all… ;)
The harvest scene is cramped in between the wild crescendo and the heartbreaking death of Olivers daughter, the moment, when everybody is oberwhelmed by this „flip“ of the timeline. It‘s just the reverse order when the child dies before the parent and it is the most devastating thing imaginable if you have to bury your own child. That‘s when everyone cracks and shed some tears.
We are released in the harvest scene right after the wild, struggling crescendo, the music stops, the late summer scenery is warm and peaceful, Tills voice gets soft and calm. A scenery of timeless(!) beauty (zeitlose Schönheit). Because that is the way, mankind did bring in the harvest for ages, for its entire settled history. And yet they are using the scythe, the tool of the grim reaper (in german: „Sensenmann“, literally „scythe man“).
And I guess it is again on purpose, that the visuals remind you of the amish people, whose way of life seems to be a „time capsule“, because they refuse to „go with time“. And they do have some german ancestry, don‘t they?
I‘m sure someone else pointed this out way better than I did, I apologize for iterations (and bad english). But these details don‘t get clear on first vision. You can‘t just do a „first reaction“ to a masterpiece of this dimension and realise every detail in it. I watched it several dozen times and still discover new gems. To be honest, some would have never come to my mind without these comment sections.
But as we know this 40 year old guy, he will show this movie to all his friends one by one to see them flabbergasted, right?
Cool T-Shirt, btw.
Love your Rammstein reactions!
This song makes me cry everytime I listen to it.
Till's poetry is wonderful.
There are so many songs to react:
Mein Herz brennt (piano version Video)
Mein Herz brennt ( Video or live)
Fantastic live: Mutter (Paris)
Sonne (2019), Feuer frei (Moskau).
Schwarz( song and lyrics)
....and so many more
I'm happy that you finally touched on the meaning of the Rammstein lyrics
That song was so emotional. It drew me in and invoked such feeling. Its about life, death, rebirth, time and how moments in life pass so quickly. It was so beautiful. Till sang that with so much emotion and beauty. His voice was so amazing. I've never heard him sing quite like that. So pure. ❤
I just lost my beloved sister , this song smashed me down. RAMMSTEIN is an ART. they are beyond imagination
Austrian (german country) here. Such a great & thoughtful song & reaction of yours. I always go down this path too when i have these moments. I know that one day my mom, my dad, my friends will be gone & theres no way stopping it. Time is merciless. I survived a drug od Jan 2024 with extreme luck. I should be dead tbh. I see it at a second chance. Existence is weird man
This is a master piece, Rammstein are like no other rock group. Im a big tough guy but this song and the lyrichs brings tears to my eyes.
This is one of my favorite songs by them. I saw them live last year and they did this song and it was amazing! I even bought a Zeit tshirt. ❤
Ich Will live from Hurricane festival is my recommendation. Awesome crowd interaction and awesome lyrics.
That’s what Rammstein wants to do, think about her songs. Always a deep meaning. Telling you how life works and the human race.
Rammstein videos are always a total work of art with texts that can have a wide variety of meanings and visualization. You could also understand it like Rorschach board pictures. Everyone finds themselves in their own reality.
Man, I subscribed just because oh these Rammstein reactions. And since I'm always searching for reactions related to my favourite band, i bumped into your channel. I had fun watching your reaction, guys. I even watched it for 4-5 times. But you are only at the beggining with your Rammstein jouney, there is hell of a lot more to discover!! Can't wait to see your reactions to Adieu, Zick Zack or Angst, or maybe some older stuff like Keine Lust, Mann Gegen Mann, or the original video for Mein Teil (I saw your reaction to the live version). Not to mention that there is a tone of hidden gems like Halt, Vergiss Uns Nicht or Gib Mir Deine Augen - all powered by the huge poetic talent of Till. By the way, greetings from Romania!
I’m so glad that you ‘get it’ now, as to why we love them so much. ❤ . As others have said, Angst is another masterpiece. 😊😊. Adieu made me cry…….. it had a plethora of Easter eggs it that pull you in further.
Great Song, Great Video!
An Info about the Song:
Norne (goddess of fate in Norse Mythology)
In Norse Mythology, the Norns are female beings who determine fate.
Three Women of destiny are mentioned by Name:
They are called Urd (Fate), Verdandi (the becoming) and Skuld (Guilt; that which is to be).
Questa canzone e il video sono stratosferici..un' opera d'arte...il mio preferito..quando lo vedo..e' impossibile non piangere..profondo..❤
I love Rammstein! And your reactions!
Come to europe next summer, I'll take you to a Rammstein concert!
I agree B.P.......I got into them just before covid...heavy stuff is great....but they're other stuff is beautiful....love the reaction, love rammstein.
Damn....I've seen the video dozens of times and it still gives me goosebumps
The Song MUTTER (live in Paris) is a rammstein special . They do not play it live anymore because it is a Song that they have a to deep conection to when they almost broke up . Till said in an interview. That Song is Gold. Instruments can cry . Lyrics with the Song is a must . Peace from germany.
I was looking forward for that
A great video and one of my personal favorites from their new album after Adieu ❤
It is a legit masterpiece. It really is.
I was so floored the first time I saw this. After repeated viewings, I still find myself engaged & digesting it in new ways.
Thank you for returning Rammstien to me. Their music helped me through the death of my best friend.
You guys must take a look at this Rammstein Cover from Apocalyptica feat. Nina Hagen called SEEMANN (the German word for sailor). Very impressive song!!!
Man they are amazing ❤
Rammstein has many songs like that this "deeper" type of song for example: Seemann, Ohne Dich, Frühling in Paris those are all musically different slower and more emotion. Greetings from Germany! ^^
I love that analysist from germany and it's great- keep up👌🏻
I'm just happy Rammstein can still be thoughtful and provoking still after 30 years. Again, the concept as a whole is a masterpiece yes.
I would LOVE to see y’all’s take on both “Angst” and the piano version of “Mien Herz Brennt”!!!!
Both videos are insanely profound and show 2 potentially new to you sides of Rammstein.
Cheers
Please do the piano version of Mein Herz brennt!!! As always good you guys react on Rammstein, but this piano version is so freakin good! Cheers from Germany
since you spoke about sitting on the mountains watching down, it's time for 'Ohne Dich' (Rammstein Music Video) :)
Time.... That elusive quantified thing we don't see but we wish we had more. Time is what we wish we have had with our loved ones. This song has been on my list on replay quite a lot since last March when I lost my mother. I wish I had more time with her I wish i could have done more for her but It wasn't meant to be. That song talks about time and the time we have or wish we had with friends and loved ones.
Yes they e amazing ❤I love
You will definitely enjoy Adieu by Rammstein especially the lyrics
The sand stands also for the thing. A thing was a place where the oldest and experienced man of a village come together to discuss topics. Sometimes they drank alcohol and slept there. And when they got up the next morning and the ideas where still there, they knew it was good
You guys would LOVE "Mein Herz Brennt" piano version!
@BlackPegasusRaps. As a parent to a single daughter, I totally connect with that joy and fear in those “perfect moments”. The idea of me not being there to protect her is one of my only genuine fears. All I do is what you implied. Enjoy the moments with her and save those feelings for when it won’t impact her. Sounds like you’re doing the same man. I’m proud that I can do that for her.
Please, next time turn on "automatic English subtitles", this would help you so much more understanding the song rather than reading them before or after the song.
Steps
First: Turn on captions, which will be in German.
Second: click on settings icon next to CC and click on "Subtitles/CC"
Third: Click on "English (auto-generated)"
Fourth: enjoy the video with English subtitles
Yeah, but auto generated subtitles are often very hit and miss (more miss) when it comes to lyrical content. A real bilingual person will translate the meaning way better.
@@SmeagolTheGreatThis doesn't matter if the viewer isn't bilingual (as most Americans are) and knowing what the content you're currently watching is about is far more important than an accurate translation. If accuracy is important, anyone is free to read the lyrics, which (in the case of Ramstein) are not always translatable literally
@@cleancoder3838 But it does matter, even more so if the viewer is not bilingual. At least this way he or she knows the words should be mostly correct and not some rubbish the yt translator misinterpreted, as so often happens. If the words on screen don't make sense, it's even more distracting than pausing and reading the correct ones from a website imo.
@@SmeagolTheGreat I almost always turn on English subtitles and I am German ;-) So Most subtitles are ok. I did not see much, that didn't made sense.
I must interject between you two : the English auto translations are sketchy, but help people who do not know any German. Best example of sketchiness is from Mein herz brennt - the verse .. die Augenlieder zu erpressen.. - erpressen CAN mean, in corporate jargon, "to blackmail", but it's moronic to say .. blackmail the eyelids.. (how can you even), when the very word is so similar in English : er-pressen : to press (down), so : I have the power to press down the eyelids, which is self explanatory.
Well, maybe, for me it's easier, being fluent in 3 languages from 3 language groups (Slavic, Germanic, Romanic), and I hear similarities in roots and sounds and connect the dots...
Next one gotta be Wollt Ihr Das Bett in Flamen Sehen (live in Paris)... Just incredible!
Sonne. Is is another great song by them with a lot meaning
Great reaction! It's like this: at first you only think the music is great. Then you discover how the lyrics are. When you talk to other people about their meaning, you realize how many layers there can be. Even your own mood or life situation can change the meaning. Yes, that's exactly why the fans love them.
Another masterpiece of Rammstein: Mein Herz brennt - piano Version by Sven Helbig
Great reaction guys so glad you enjoyed it. :)
This was super dope! I've never seen the video! That thanks for the previous comment breaking down!
Bro, you must go on a concert from Rammstein. The atmosphere ist amazing. The fireshow is so hot you can feel it over 150 Yards. Regards from Germany.
Man, these videos are so cool! I love the little banter but I also love how deep you go for the meaning!
Schopenhauer wrote and detailed a bit in his book "World, as will and representation" what is talked about at 10:05.
When you like this side of Rammstein I recommend „ohne dich“ (without you) also. ❤
Next on your List should be "Angst" - another great Video and Song to discuss ;-)
Official Rammstien videos usually have translated subtitles. Click the settings (gear icon) in the corner of the video.
Love your rammstein reactions so much ❤ thank you 4 that! Greetings from germany
When you understand the full lyrics it is so awesome.
I mean many songs are complex and have a destinct message.
Sometimes you have to listen to it hundreds of times and extremly think about it, together with the video, its crazy.
Zeit and some other song make me almost cry, because they are so deep, so full of emotions.
especially when you have something to relate with, like my mothers and my fathers death and struggle.
My mother had cancer 3 times and the last one, she knew that she will die and almost exactly when, my father was in coma for several weeks and we know that he could hear us, but he couldnt react, the only reaction we saw was, puls, breathing, uncontroled eyemovement when we discussed a topic nearby where he normaly wants to say something!
Believe me, with the lyrics, the song touches you deep in your heart.
You've got to watch Adieu too, its about the same concept: passing on/saying goodbye.
The music video of Adieu is also a mini movie in the theme of matrix/the dark knight/joker of the band members stuck in the purgatory.
The song is also colossal, they played as a closing song in the 22/23 european stadium tour
This and Angust they ❤ amazing
Never cut off Rammstein's outros. It's all part of the artistic qualities you were so eloquently conveying about that masterpiece. You may want to go back and watch it offline just for your own gratification. That being said...another awesome Rammstein reaction. Keep up the good work bro. 😊👍
If you haven't done "Adieu" yet, I think you'll really enjoy it.
Your reaction was great but please always (always) watch all Rammstein videos until the actual end. Greetings from Germany - Andy 👏
I think had two perfect moments and quite a few great ones I fondly remember. But the great ones don't even come close to the perfect ones. One when I was at school, like 15-16 maybe. It was the last day before christmas break. I got the results from a physics exam back that went way better than I had tought. I had made plans with my friends to watch Lord of the Rings part 1 in the cinema that night and I was mega hyped for that movie. We got loge balcony seats reserved for it (yes our local cinema had those, it's like 100 yrs old now). I took a detour going home to pick up a novel for school that I had ordered at the local book store. I browsed for a while, especially their video game section and when I left with the book, it had gone dark (it's pitch black at like 5 pm here in winter) with christmas lights coming on and it had started snowing. I do not quite now why. But in that moment, bliss was all I could feel and I am so very glad my brain made a hard copy of that day... The other moment I was slightly older and involved my first girl friend. But I feel that's quite enough sharing for one comment 😀
Great reaction! Fun fact: All the sand in the video is shot practical - no CGI!
Love your reactions! You seem to be such good-hearted people..! 🫶🙏🔥 Love from München!
From the moment we're born, death is our constant companion.
One of my favorite things about Black Pegasus reacting to all these videos is that you can tell how much all these new influences are making him even more mature in his artistic taste (not only music) and you can feel his mind is going full speed at 200%. He not only wants to understand what he experiences, he wants to digest everything and pour his new sensibilities into his own art and I cannot wait for the fruits of his efforts...
great reaction guys, gotta do angst amazing music video, zick zak, basically every video from this album..
Uns they are amazing ❤
Never ever stop a Rammstein video before it ends. NEVER
if you want more of this type of Rammstein you should check out "Adieu", its a a song with beautiful lyrics and an amazing music video. Other ones that you'd propably like are "Ohne Dich" (has a music video) and "Mutter" (an amazing live from Paris video)
I feel like the moments where you are content and happy with life are what you see when life runs before your eyes in the last moments. Thus you have to be the best you can, for yourself and others. Then there will be no regret, no sadness.
It´s worth looking in videos "MAKING OF ...". You learn a lot of Rammstein ... Greetings from Berlin, Germany
TL (Till Lindemann) sings High German, by the way, so the normal translation should work halfway. I am German and of course I would be very happy if you could experience Rammstein in full.
I agree though, subtitles distract from everything else. But Rammstein always has a chorus and you could read the verses individually. They are profound and even as a native speaker, I have to listen to the songs more often.
Maybe I'm just too cerebral sometimes.
I recommend "Mein Herz brennt" (Piano Version) ("my heart is burning") to you. A really different direction of their art, just TL and the piano as background music to Till's acting.
Best regards from Germany
Not only it makes you think, it also makes you 'FEEL'
You should turn on captions to play along with the video. This song's will deeply touch you.
Superb reaction ❤❤❤
Always until the end, Guys! I hate it when songs are faded out too! Otherwise great reaction. Rammstein is unique.
Till is poet❤
Yes, it is disappointing. Such a good reaction and then they skip the credits.😔
Danke für die Warnung.
@@CavHDeu ansonsten sehenswerte Reaktion. Aber er sprang durch den Abspann. Ich verstehe es nicht! Haben Leute keine Zeit mehr? Okay es sind Amerikaner. Der Linke hat alles begriffen. Servus 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
@@arnodobler1096 keine Zeit mehr, der war gut 😂
@@CavHDeu 🤣 in dem Zusammenhang sowieso. Fiel mir gar nicht auf. Doppelt schlimm!
'Adieu' is a MUST reaction.
This one always hits hard
A really must seen
Till Lindemann Zunge
And of course bhs of the clip❤❤❤
Oh ..one last thing...I watched Zeit when it premiered...COVID raging...Putin started his shit in Ukraine...I cried like a baby afterwards...your right Pegasus...this is a MASTERPIECE...Yet I can't get any of my friends to watch them let alone listen to them...I barely know a lick of German but take the time to research the lyrics...no one comes close to them live or in videos
