The Reviews about Du Hast (English Lyrics) (page 2/ 12)
------ performed by Rammstein

I think that they did the "du hast" line because they know they have a big english-speaking fan base and they want use that to the best of their ability by using double meanings. Ive always felt like YOU have to interpret the song yourself, do you hate or do you have?
Du Hast (English Lyrics) | Reviewer: RikkGB | 3/25/09
hmmmm reading what one finds here it amazes me that no seems to see the real point with german into english or even any language, the meaning always gets lost....
just think of how the world missundertands the peace sign with your hands (winston churchil) depending on you turn your hand from front to back, means different things in different cultures, even for us Brits its peace to f**k you.
as i live and work in germany, yes its hard at time to explain to germans english lyrics as is a Brit german lyrics... and then american english is even worse to explain,
an example color or is it color :)
hast is not hate and yes it makes sense when thety say you have me, in german, in english one would say you have me :)
people just think it helps

its all about promises and loyalty | Reviewer: shiva | 2/24/09
du hast = you have - this meaning suits...
i am an indian, dont know german, and even never seen Germany in a MAP (lol), but im crazy abt Rammstein. ( 2 other German band r fav. of mine too..)
The whole song is a play on German wedding vows (Wollen Sie einander lieben und achten und die Treue halten bis dass der Tod euch scheidet? - Do you want to love and respect each other and to remain faithful, until death seperates you?),
its all about loyalty to a parter for whole lifetime. during marriage they answer yes, but here rammstein answers no cuz how many ppl keeps loyalty for lifetime ???
"Du Hast Mich" | Reviewer: Allison | 2/2/09
To the German "Brittany" I do belive you are right. No I'm not full german, but I love the music! No I'm also not just some wanta be. The words, " you have me" don't really make much sense, but "you hate me" does. So I agree with you 100%!
German Roxs!!! | Reviewer: Girl form America Who Truly Loves Rammstein!!! | 2/2/09
My Great, Great grand-dad is full german. So yeah, I can't understand anything he says! I noticed that some times he would look at me and say, " Du Hast Mich." I would really like to know what that really means!! Please someone actually clear this up.
P.s This music seriously is awesome and addicting!!
- Love German, The American. Don't hate me, because I ain't GERMAN!!!
Du Hast | Reviewer: Anonymous | 12/13/08
Du hast may be the title written for the song, but as said earlier, You hate asked me, makes no sense at all. The lyrics as with the Hasst, or the weird B that is in the german alphabet. It may be somewhere in the range of using both Hast and Hasst at different points of the song, but I really doubt it.
The Truth! | Reviewer: Will | 10/28/08
Alright, so some of these posts are people who think they know what they are talking about and a few are people who know what they are talking about. I speak german, so I'll set it straight. The song name is "Du Hast". That means, "You Have" in English. Were it "Du Hasst" it would be "You hate". Not to mention the fact that "You hate asked me" makes no sense gramatically. The band may have intended the pun of have/hate, but it wouldn't make much sense given the other lyrics of the song.
Just setting straight for some | Reviewer: Jeff | 10/25/08
The word hast in german is have, hate is hasst. Believe me I know this for a fact. My girlfriend has been speaking German her whole life as she is German. The english version of the song sung by Rammstein they say " You hate me" the problem is that is not what he is singing in German. The possibility on the hate translation is that it simply sounds better. The direct translation of Du Hast Mich Gefragt, und ich hab nichts gesaget is You have me asked and I have nothing said or when made grammatically correct you have asked me and I said nothing. So that shows that hate just isn't correct. The reason some think he might be using the hate version of hasst is that Rammstein over emphasises what they sing like the way the roll the letter r, they overly roll them which Germans do roll their r's when they do annunciate them, there fore if you only listen to it you will hear them saying one thing but may think they are saying something else that is similar.
just fucking ask them | Reviewer: dacid | 10/13/08
ask the fucking people who made the song damn
german has very few words compared to english, the word sie has many different meanings in the language, damn Hassen is the verb to hate, conjugated to du it is hast, to have is haben, conjugated to du it is hast, it's a double meaning song retards, but judging on the context of you 'hast'mich gefragt, technically it should be have
