    There is an ancient German legend that there is a single line that can be traced through all of history, and it is marked on all sides by violence, so it is often called "the red line of fate" or "the red line of destiny" that is what Rammstein was aiming for with the constant red lasers through this video

    You actually did quite well. The track is about our hate-love relationship with our country (yes, I'm German). Germany is a young country, and at the same time very old. You have A LOT of references to German history here - the Romans, medieval knights, burning witches, the November revolution at the end of WW1, the hyperinflation, the Roaring Twenties (which are in Germany called the Golden Twenties), burning of books, the burning "Hindenburg" Zeppelin, WW2, the Holocaust, communist East Germany, the German terrorists of the RAF (Rote Armee Fraktion, red army fraction) and up to the fairly modern "traditional" May 1st riots we have here in Berlin. As can be seen, much of that history is very bloody - violent towards non-Germans, but as well among Germans themselves. The main chorus goes:
    "Germany!
    Your love
    Is a curse and a blessing
    Germany!
    My love
    I cannot give you"
    Germania, the "national symbol" of Germany, is represented by a black woman - which is very obviously the opposite of the "white Aryan race" supremacism. But you can see in this video, that sometimes Germania is the perpretator and sometimes the victim.
    All in all (I think) it is a kind of an appeal to engage with our history. (Personally, I'm a history nerd, so nothing new for me - but, well, there are enough people).
    Rammstein is known for being very provocative; while I do not think (like some people do) that they really are right wingers, they very much use this provocation to ... well, earn money ^^.

    The statement "Germany, Germany above all else" actually has nothing to do with Nazis. It comes from a time when Germany existed as many independent states with their own interests. It was a call to see the nation of Germany as more important than its own needs. It was only the Nazis who turned this line into a claim to rule over others.

    • @DSP16569
      @DSP16569 8 месяцев назад +1

      The lyrics of the german national anthem is from the "Song of the Germans" (It's a poem but at the time it was written poems often called song) written in 1841 from "von Fallersleben" ho was in exile on Helgoland (British at this time) at a time shortly after the Napoleanic Wars where "Germany" was a collection of hundreds of tiny Countries surrounded by the British, Russian, Austrian and French Empires. This "small Country" situation made it easy for France to invade and occupy one of this tiny Countries after another.
      The Idea of a (strong) unified german nation that isn't a easy target for other nations anymore (and will stop the fighting and wars between the tiny countries) formed and in the poem the Line "Germany above all" was meant as "A unified German Nation should be our highest priority that is above all other goals".
      With the music of the austrian tune it got the german national anthem in the Weimar Republic (before the Nazis) and because the Nazis misused the meaning of the first line of the poem (and because of the Afterwar divide of Germany and the fact that the geographical references are partly now in poland, russia, ,...) the third stanza starting with "unity, Justice and freedom ..." is the only stanza of the current national anthem.
      The whole poem has following Lyrics
      Germany, Germany above all
      Above all in the world
      When it always, for protection and defence
      Brotherly stands together.
      From the Meuse to the Neman
      From the Adige to the Little Belt,
      𝄆 Germany, Germany above all
      Above all in the world. 𝄇
      German women, German loyalty,
      German wine and German song,
      Shall retain, throughout the world,
      Their old respected fame,
      To inspire us to noble deeds
      For the length of our lives.
      𝄆 German women, German fidelity,
      German wine and German song. 𝄇
      Unity and Justice and Freedom
      For the German Fatherland!
      After these let us all strive
      Brotherly with heart and hand!
      Unity and Justice and Freedom
      Are the security of happiness -
      𝄆 Bloom in the splendour of this happiness,
      Bloom, German Fatherland! 𝄇

      the actual phrase in the old anthem is 'deutschland uber alles' (above everything) and in the song the line is 'uber allen' (over everyone).

    The song is about the ambivalent relationship of Rammstein and many Germans to their country, because of the violent and cruel history with extensive human crimes ("red line of violence through german history"), especially in recent history. Therefore the video features various events from German history, including Roman times, the Middle Ages, witch hunting and burning, Protestant Reformation, the November Revolution, the "Golden Twenties" and hyperinflation, Nazi book burnings, the Hindenburg disaster, the First and Second World Wars, the Holocaust, the Weimar Republic, the Red Army Fraction (violent anti-capitalist terror alliance of young people and students against Nazis in high state and economy positions in post-war Germany), and the division of the country into West and East Germany including the Uprising June 17 in East Germany. The black woman represents Germany and one of the Colors of the German flags, sometimes as a victim, but mostly as a perpetrator. With her black skin she is also a provocation to all stupid racists
    A lot of people do not understand the scenes with the dogs. This breed of dogs are not German Shepards, but Leonberger. This breed of dog narrowly escaped extinction during the First and also Second World Wars and is symbolic of the German people, whose existence was also strongly threatened in those wars (Morgenthau-Plan) - both now have a second existential chance, just like the new German democratic constitution, which in future must be protected as strongly as if it were under quarantine (Judges in red robes, Rammstein members in protective suits with the dogs)
    The Holocaust was for this reason the greatest human crime because it was the first industrially organized mass murder in human history, by a country that was culturally at its highest point at this time and called itself the country of poets and thinkers. But it is precisely the high cultural and scientific level of Germany that unfortunately caused others to be viewed as subhuman who can be killed without pity, just like animals. Seeing other people as inferior has always brought a lot of suffering to people

    Hi, I'm from Germany.
    Rammstein is playing a classic "Industrial Metal" style. A 50-50 mix of synthesizers and hard metal guitars.
    A big part of the German history in one video. The black woman as Germania. Germania is the personification of the German nation. It isn't and wasn't a goddess or Joan of Arc.
    The glass coffin: It is Little Snow White from the Grimm-fairytales....and from their own video "Sonne". Only with black skin and in space.
    The piano song at the end is the song "Sonne", too.
    The words "Germania Magna" at the beginning are a Roman name for the area of Germany, that wasn't conquered by the Roman Empire at that time.
    Germania Superior and Germania Inferior were the Roman conquered areas (Roman provinces) of Germany.
    The line in this song "So jung und doch so alt" (So young and yet so old) means:
    Germany as a unified state is very young. A unified German nation is only existing from 1871 onwards. Before that year of unification Germany was made of countless, little mini-states and the people identified first and foremost as Prussians, Hessians, Saxons etc, etc, etc. and only in a second line of thought they had a lose sense of being somehow Germans, too, as a kind of unifying second identity.
    So the area & the landscape where the Germans are living and the Germans themselves as a people...are thousands of years old. But only recently, in 1871, there was a unified Germany as one single state.
    So Germany as a unified state is very young...and at the same time it is thousands of years old.
    The battle of the Teutoburg forest against the Romans (and Rammstein as Roman soldiers and Germans alike).
    That battle is of ABSOLUTE importance for the German history.
    The hanged bodies in the trees were the beaten Roman soldiers, who were gruesome sacrificed to the Germanic gods...and were partly nailed to the trees.
    The Varus-(Teutoburg)-Battle was already in 9 AD. In 16 AD were the vengeance campaigns of commanding field general Germanicus under Emperor Tiberius Augustus. Therefore we see here the arrival of the Roman troops of Germanicus and they are watching their dead comrades hanging in the trees or getting their heads chopped off (for nailing them to the trees).
    In reality the Romans under Germanicus found only the bones of the Varus army in the various ways they were slaughtered, sacrificed and displayed at the trees. Slaves were liberated even decades after the battle.
    After the scenes with the Romans we saw the Hindenburg Zeppelin disaster (the burning Zeppelin in the background).
    The moustaches and clothing from the fight scene are from WWI and post WWI years. From the working class people in WWI and the roaring 20's. In the WWII years later on this kind of big bushy moustache was already out of fashion.
    The falling banknotes in the prison are not about corruption. That scene is about the hyper-inflation of the 1920's, that took away the savings of the Germans and left them in deep poverty and desperation.
    One had to pay a loaf of bread with a handcart full of nearly worthless banknotes back then and it hit the German people deep down inside and in their souls. Especially the poor ones and the simple workers.
    The V2 rocket (first manmade object in space) as technical triumph of the German spirit...and at the same time the killing of the concentration camp prisoners in the bunker factories below the mountains during the production of that rocket.
    This scene in the video could be a representation of a very specific concentration camp. It was "Mittelbau-Dora" below the Kohnstein mountain.
    A mixture between a big, huge bunker factory for V1 and V2 rockets and a concentration camp.
    The concentration camp inmates had several different markings for different kinds of convicts and their "crimes" sown to their chests, like it was in reality, too. A pink triangle for homosexuals, the star of David for Jews and two of them were marked with the double-triangles for Jehovas Whitnesses.
    The book burnings of the Nazis and the burning of the witches of the church. In the same scene with the book burning there is EVEN MORE going on. The cooperation of the church with the Nazis, when the priest with the cross embraces the Nazi SA-man.
    The scene with the sign with the Hammer and a pair of compasses in a circle of wheat is the sign of the GDR (DDR). The socialist German state in the east that existed before the German reunification.
    Therefore it was Karl Marx in the background in the scene with the tank (not the scene at the concentration camp).
    The scene with Rammstein wielding guns (the pumpgun) and taking Germania hostage was about leftwing terrorism of the 1970's. The terrorists were called the RAF (Rote Armee Fraktion).
    My interpretation of the red scanner-like beams: There are two different kinds of beams. The massive straight red light beam that goes up into the heavens AND there were those smaller, thinner "scanner" beams.
    Aliens (or humans from the future) are scanning the whole German history. Like some real scientists are scanning and excarvating ancient Mexican or Egyptian statues, for example.
    The massive red light beam is the red ribbon of time that ties together all the historical events.
    PS: As for the dogs: Germans are fanatical dog lovers. We are a dog-owner nation. The dog is a firm part of Germany.
    PPS: They didn't eat the body of the woman and her inner organs, even if it really looked that way. They were eating the national dish of Germany, that was put on the body of the black woman: Sauerkraut, Kassler & sausages.
    In my opinion it symbolizes the church eating itself fat on the goods and values and food of Germany during the simple people (farmers, simple workers etc) lived a long time in a kind of hell of poverty and serfdom (the red fetish area below the table with Germania on it).
    But that eating scene could indeed have a double meaning. It could represent the 30 years war, that was fought for religious reasons and depopulated large areas of Germany. It forced the people to commit canibalism because nobody was there anymore to produce food. Except the fat, wealthy people of the church, of course. They were still able to eat enough. Only the simple people at the bottom (farmers etc) died from hunger and had to fight and die in that war.
    The 30 years war was the biggest catastrophe in Germany until WWI happened.
    PPPS: The short scene with the dogs and their gas masks = WWI, where in reality animals (messenger dogs & horses) AND soldiers were wearing gas masks, too.
    PPPPS: The puppies at the end are Leonberger dogs. The Leonbergers nearly went extinct during WWI and WWII.
    PPPPPS: The black woman in the prison was dressed in a Prussian uniform with a Prussian helmet.
    Till sings the famous, often misinterpreted, line of the "Deutschlandlied" (Song of the Germans), that is not forbidden in Germany but simply isn't sung anymore in our modern national anthem.
    Till sings in his version the line "Deutschland über allen" (Germany above everybody) What is a BIG change to the real line in the orginal Deutschlandlied-song. In the original Deutschlandlied song it is written as "Deutschland über alles" (Germany above everything).
    The real, whole line of that old Deutschlandlied goes "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles. Über alles in der Welt" (Germany, Germany above everything. Above everything in the world).
    This line is often misinterpreted by many people as chauvinism and as a looking down upon all other countries on this planet. But that is wrong and not many people know about that in Germany and elsewhere.
    The writer of that famous line didn't meant it in a chauvinistic way.
    When that song was written, Germany was divided into umphteenth mini-states, what made Germany relative powerless and defenseless. Therefore the task of German unification was the goal above any other goal for all Germans (at least the writer of the song meant it that way).
    So the main goal for all Germans had to be the united Germany. The goal of "(united) Germany above everything else".
    That was, how that line was meant by the writer of the song.
    The line isn't forbidden, like many people wrongly think. It's simply not sung anymore and not part of the official anthem of modern Germany anymore.
    This has NOT its reason in the seemingly chauvinist meaning of "Deutschland über alles", like many people wrongly think. This whole stanza of the Deutschlandlied isn't sung anymore, because in other parts of the stanza are borders and landscapes mentioned, that aren't German borders and landscapes anymore.
    We want to live in peace with the people and countries, who are now living in those former German lands and therefore we don't sing about those old borders and landscapes anymore.
    It has nothing to do with the "Deutschland über alles" line in that stanza, like many people wrongly are thinking.
    Finally:
    The scenes I'm now talking about are pretty dark and low light. The WWII submarine in the submarine bunker during the astronauts are walking by with the glass coffin.
    I think, the choice of the black woman as main actress was made, because:
    a) it makes any accusations of racism and fascism against Rammstein useless
    b) she represents one colour of the German flag and she is wearing the rest of the colours of our German flag as makeup and jewellery and clothes on her body: Black, Red and Gold
    c) it provokes many people EVEN MORE 😄

      @megatwingo 8 месяцев назад +1

      PS: RUclips didn't allow me to integrate this information into the bigger text (above) for unknown reasons, therefore I'm posting it here:
      The troops, who smashed the Jewish shops during the Kristallnacht (not shown in the video) were SA (Sturmabteilung) in brown uniform and not the later SS (Schutzstaffel) in the black uniform. The SA did all the dirty work at the beginning of the Nazi rise to power...until the "Night of the long knives", an inner-Nazi power struggle, happened. The head of the SA (Ernst Röhm) was killed and from then on the SA was turned more and more into the SS under Himmler.
      The book burnings were part of the early Nazi years, too, and were done by the SA, too. One can see the SA burning the books and Till is watching it in a brown SA uniform.
      Both, Kristallnacht and book burnings were different things and happened at different times. The book burnings happened over a longer timespan at different locations at different times during the Kristallnacht was one big "event" that happened at one single day.
      Kristallnacht means "Crystal Night" and was called that way, because the smashed shop windows of the Jewish shops looked like thousands of crystals on the ground. But in the Rammstein video I've only seen the book burnings.
      PPS:
      The two beer drinking soldiers to the left side of the table, where Germania is lying on and where the priests are eating Sauerkraut & Sausages from her body, are not French soldiers and they aren't representing the French revolution. Those two beer drinking soldiers are Prussian soldiers and they are emphasizing the importance of Prussia for the German history.
      As far as I could see: They were from the era of Friedrich der Große (The Old Fritz), who was of extraordinary importance for German history. Amongst many other achievements he was the one, who brought the potato to Prussia and Germany. That saved many Germans from hunger and the potato became one of the most beloved foods in Germany on that way.
      PPPS: The name Rammstein comes from the German town Ramstein (with one "m"). There is an US-airbase and there happened a big, tragic airshow disaster, when two jets collided and fell into the audience.
      Therefore all the flames and the burning coat during the song Rammstein and all the fire in their shows in general. But that rather tasteless name and the negative press echo were too much even for Rammstein. So they changed their name later in Rammstein, what indeed means "battering stone".
      They delivered a half assed explanation for it decades ago. I've forgotten, what they said. A fact is, that they called themselves after that town and that airshow disaster. Probably for provocation purposes.
      Their old song "Rammstein" even tells in other words the story of that disaster and it tells about a fine day with a warm shining sun...and burning people.
      Neue Deutsche Härte was always a pretty unsatisfying new name for the music they made mainly: Industrial or Industrial Metal/Rock.

    I liked your reaction and it would be even better if you had subtitles. Hope you will continue reacting to Rammstein but with subtitles. I see people tell you to turn on auto generated subtitles, but it is much better if you search for whichever video you want from "educatedmarine" and "bucksttabu" channels, because they have all their videos, live performances and the rest of the songs with subtitles which are very good. It is important because Rammstein plays a lot with words, double meanings, metaphores and their lyrics are almost always essential for songs, but google translator or auto generated subtitles don't always do a good job.
    Anyway, looking forward to another reaction and if you want recommendation, I would pick "Zeit" (official video) for a different, more gentle side of the band, or some live performance, because Rammstein is the best live band in the world and you have to see it. Usually people start Rammstein journey with their live performance of "Du Hast" from Paris, which might be interesting to you since you already know the song, or you might try "Ich Tu Dir Weh" or "Engel", both live from MSG. Actually there are too many great songs, videos and performances that it is really hard for me to choose only one or two songs.

    Deutschland Rammstein
    I'll try to summarize the scenes. I don't have to be right about everything either.
    In the so-called Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, also known as the Battle of Varus or Battle of Hermann, Germanic tribes led by the Cheruscan Prince destroyed three Roman legions
    After the First World War there was an eventful afterlife with fist fights; the pugilists earned some money to live on for themselves and their families
    The Hindenburg Drama. Germany had the largest airships (zepelins named after the builder). There was a great disaster in New York. To this day it is not clear whether it was an accident or an attack.
    Hammer and sickle symbolizes the German Democratic Republic (division after World War II)
    The monks symbolize the time of the 30 Years' War
    The Thirty Years' War from 1618 to 1648 was a conflict for hegemony in the Holy Roman Empire and Europe that began as a religious war and ended as a territorial war.
    Start: Second Prague Defenestration
    Outcome: Peace of Westphalia; Peace of Münster
    According to estimates, the population of Germany fell from 16.5 million in 1618 to 10.5 million in 1648
    The hyperinflation of 1923
    Driven by the reparations payment by the victorious powers in the Peace of Versailles, which made Hitler's seizure of power possible
    Examples of price decline
    On June 9, 1923 in Berlin:
    1 egg - 800 marks
    1 liter of milk - 1440 marks
    1 kilo of potatoes - 5000 marks
    1 tram ride - 600 marks
    1 dollar was equal to 100,000 marks.
    On December 2, 1923 in Berlin:
    1 egg - 320 billion marks
    1 liter of milk - 360 billion marks
    1 kilo of potatoes - 90 billion marks
    1 tram ride - 50 billion marks
    1 dollar corresponded to 4.21 trillion marks.
    World War 2 and the extermination camps
    The stars on the men at the gallows represent the different prisoners
    Political prisoners, Jews, Sexually Different and Criminals.
    Germany developed rocket technology, jet aircraft and many other weapons of war.
    After the war they were happily taken over by the victors and the engineers also worked for the victorious powers
    Til in women's clothes
    RAF Red Army Faction was a terrorist group
    Bader (a man) and Meinhof (a woman were the masterminds. Kidnapping and killing of politicians and business leaders
    The fires
    Book burning in the Third Reich and witch burning in the Middle Ages
    Both evil factions embrace
    The little dogs with gas masks
    Symbolizes German soldiers in the First World War with weapons of gas destruction used by both sides
    The dogs represent the children of Germania. It is meant to symbolize that Germans follow orders like a good dog. Very drastic but Germans think very much in black and white. either good or evil. Other cultures think more in shades of gray
    I must have forgotten something or not interpreted it correctly.
    The song in the credits is Sonne by Rammstein

    Germany above all is Nazi slang. but before that it is the call for unification of Germany: Unite all tribes and micro states into one nation. No Saxons, no Bavarians, monarchy has endet, so rethink that area as one uniited nation of Germany. Later the NS regime used and misused that phrase to show their imaginary superiorityover other races aka inferiority complex.

    Time of the RAF terror in Germany (1970-1998)
    After the founding members of the first generation of German terrorists were secured in Stuttgart prison, and the state was transformed into an all-encompassing police and manhunt apparatus with the help of BKA chief Herold, the limit of terror was reached in 1977. The Second Generation had kidnapped the president of the employers' association, Hans-Martin Schleyer, and murdered his motor pool in Cologne. The government in Bonn, led by Helmut Schmidt, now addressed the terrorists personally in a televised speech: "You may feel a triumphant sense of power at this moment. -But you should not deceive yourselves. Terrorism has no chance in the long run!" After Schleyer's kidnapping, a dragnet search is immediately launched within a 30-kilometer radius of Cologne and a special "Doctor Schleyer" commission is set up. The German government now deploys all police forces in the Cologne area to find Schleyer and free him from the hands of the terrorists. After the Schleyer kidnapping, news reaches Bonn that a German Lufthansa plane carrying 86 passengers has changed course, been hijacked by foreign terrorists and is circling over the African continent. The terrorists demand the release of the RAF's founding members from prison and their departure to a country of their choice. When the plane lands in Mogadishu, the terrorist leader issues an ultimatum to the government in Bonn. Either the founding members are released or the Lufthansa plane is bombed. With Schleyer's life and the lives of 86 passengers hanging by a thread, the RAF and its allies had now gone too far. Here they had reached the innermost vulnerability of the German state. The democratic constitutional state with its liberal order, which had been established after 1949, was now put to the test. Should the state allow itself to be blackmailed by terrorists in order to save human lives? For Helmut Schmidt, the matter was clear, especially after the Lorenz kidnapping: "A state cannot be blackmailed! The Bonn crisis staff sends the message to Mogadishu that the founding members of the RAF seem to be released and flown out to Mogadishu. In reality, to buy time, Bonn dispatches the German anti-terrorist unit "GSG9" (which was formed after the 1972 terrorist attack in Germany and of whose existence the population knows nothing) to Mogadishu to storm the plane. After the terrorists receive the news that the German allies will be released, the GSG9 lands in Mogadishu by day. At night, the task force approaches the plane from behind, gains access to the plane, and murders three of the four terrorists. Among them is the leader. All 86 hostages are freed. Meanwhile, in Bonn: Chancellor Schmidt receives the news that the operation was successful, and all passengers are alive. A sigh of relief in Bonn. Meanwhile, at Stammheim Prison: The founding members receive the news of the successful operation over the radio. -They all commit collective suicide the same night. Wiesbaden the day after: BKA chief Herold is beside himself. With the suicide in Stammheim, the Federal Republic has created martyrs. (Even if not intentionally). Hans-Martin-Schleyer could not be found after an extensive search. He is murdered on the Belgian-French border after the failed Mogadishu operation. French police officers find a car with German license plates in which Hans-Martin-Schleyer's body is found. -Germany is informed. The funeral service becomes an act of state. After the murder in Stammheim, many members and sympathizers of the RAF break away. Until 1998, the Third Generation continued to carry out attacks, including against high government officials. It disbanded in 1998. Unlike the First, the Second German Republic survived. And it set the limits to terror. According to the motto: "Bonn shall never become like Weimar!". Even if it cost Schleyer his life.
