Rammstein Lyrics

    ------ About the song Spieluhr performed by Rammstein

This song is a nice little thinker. Behind the clear story, there's a bit of an idea. You could see the child in the coffin as the last bit of honesty, so easily discarded by the masses. Perhaps the last thing that makes us human, the ability to be an individual, we put away because we prefer a big voice on the screens, screaming propaganda at us all day long. You could pretty much keep mesmerizing forever with lyrics like these.

Or well, untill you see some shitstain uttering his love for a band and music he doesn't understand in horrific English, raping both the band and the English language with some kind of a "poem" as if he were an 8 year old kid with down syndrome.

Makes one wonder if it's still possible to enjoy some good music without some idiot blocking your view. Oh well...

    ------ About the song Moskau performed by Rammstein

Pioneers refer to The Young Pioneer Organization of the Soviet Union, also Vladimir Lenin All-Union Pioneer Organization, which was in existence from 1922 to 1991 in the USSR. It was a massive youth group for children aged 10-15 which was very similar to the Boy Scouts of America, but with more politically charged programs designed to make lil' Commies out of all of its children.

    ------ About the song Amerika performed by Rammstein

"we export 1.5x more goods than we import" yeah but how much of it isn't disgusting candy or terrible cars? either way I have nothing against America and I should despite being on our side in the wars in the middle east they still killed a bunch of our soldiers down to their idiocy. But it doesn't matter, my point is, patriotism is good but it can be taken too far. Oh and this song is f*****g hilarious and totally badass. Peace out.

    ------ About the song Du Hast (English Lyrics) performed by Rammstein

The German word for have is "Hast" while hate is "Hasst." Yes this song is about a wedding proposal tnd the lyrics are "Du hast mich" but it is a play on words since Hast. and Hasst are so close in spelling. What is being implied is she hates him because he said "Nein" meaning "no" at their wedding. It is, however only a WRITTEN play on words since "hast" and "hasst" are pronounced quite differently.

    ------ About the song Engel performed by Rammstein

I like Rammstein pretty much and knowing a band like this makes me proud to be German. I know sometimes the lyrics are scary or confusing but Engel is one of their most beautiful songs. Even if my fav one is Roter Sand :D

    ------ About the song Du Hast (English Lyrics) performed by Rammstein

most have never known of figure this out. first parts of his speech he's holding the S pronunciation. he holds it for short bit. when he goes to say full sentence harder to tell but his S pronunciation is shorter. every has been saying that Hasst is pronounced completely different. but point is Rammstein was using American speech to give hint. yes song is Du Hast, you can correctly read it as. his intention is to listen by ears not translations. alot his songs have double meaning words. and for this song correctly it should read ether way tho his action of speech makes it read "you hate me" before he states about her asking him. mostly he is stating she hates him for him ignoring her!!!

du
du hasst
du hasst mich
du hast mich gefragt
du hast mich gefragt, und ich hab nichts gesagt

    ------ About the song Du Hast (English Lyrics) performed by Rammstein

if you take the german language or know it, they teach you the past or you would have already known. In the past it is haben for nonmoving verbs and sein for moving. So fragen, which is to ask and sagen (to say) are both nonmoving verbs, where as gehen (to go) is a moving verb. In the past, usually you would add a ge to the beginning of the verb. In the lyrics, you can see that it is now in past due to the verb at the end gesagt and gefragt. The verb haben has to be used after the pronoun, ich, du, etc. If the verb is moving such as gehen, it would be ich bin gegangen. Based on this, the lyrics cannot possibly mean i hate or the end verb would be sagen/ fragen, not gesagt/gefragt, which is what he actually sings. Du hasst mich fragen is obviously not what he sings.

    ------ About the song Du Hast (English Lyrics) performed by Rammstein

The 'hast'/ 'hasst' is a play on words. Rammstein made it so either translation fits the song. Along with the rest of the song, it sounds like a marriage proposal unanswered, hidden hostility between both counterparts..

Du hast- you have
Du hasst- you hate

They sound alike, either translation the listener chooses to interpret fits really.

    ------ About the song Moskau performed by Rammstein

A prostitute "gives" you all for money ..
Moscow, such a huuuge and expensive city (and big -fat-, but also with very beautiful areas -still pretty-), gives you all ... but again, only if you have a lot of money ...

I don't think you have to invent complicated stories ...
(by the way, a really great song! After having visited Moscow, it is clear to me that Rammstein members know the city very well. They know the "soul" of the city. IMHO, of course )
