- Hearing Rammstein Amerika was super fun. I mean, fun, fun....can you tell that Reggae guy was singing along with the song. He said at the end that it was like an earworm that he cannot get out of his ear. He would basically keep singing it all day. That is what this song did to us. You cannot get it out of your mind. I love it! It was cool!
The original video was blocked twice and I had brightened the video and made it look bad....so sorry....they may not care now that I am reacting to their awesome video.

They literally sing: "This is not a love song" so yeah it's more a negative critique of Americas influence of other cultures.. perfect pronounciation btw ;)
They sing about how all things stand from america
I'm not sure it's a criticism
@@mikiangel1810 the song is a criticism of american imperialism in culture, diplomatie,...
The song was realise in 2004 and it's also a criticism of american wars especially in Irak: "We're all living in America coca cola sometimes War"
@@mikiangel1810 it also critics that amerika tends to be the world police and putting their values on everyone.
Roughly translated he sings something like: who doesnt want to dance, doesnt know that he needs to dance. → forcing ideals on others etc.
@@mikiangel1810 it definitely is
It is a harsh critique of America, they literally sing "this is not a love song". This is also the most important part in the video, imo, where the white guys dress as natives and just see it as a joke while the real natives just watch them sad. America is destroying other cultures. The fake moon landing is a reference to the superficial nature of the American culture.
The lyrics are mainly about how America is leading us in a dance and who doesn't want to dance will be forced.
But don't worry Rammstein is known for being very direct and not holding back. Their song "Deutschland" about my and their home country is extremely critical, direct and brutal (and also a masterpiece, you should react to it).
@Jakob Bräuer I believe I mentioned that in the video to the guest. It is not a love song. It is sarcasm in protest of the US and its influence over the world. The interesting thing is that the US is full of all races and cultures from all the countries of the world. The freedom the US has promotes entrepreneurship and innovation which influences the world as this video shows. The only way to stop it is to stop allowing people to have their freedom and the influence across the world will stop very quickly.
I am afraid that the time will come at some point. Unfortunately, the people of the US are spoiled in that freedom and get too cocky and are not humble about it. That will be their downfall. The collapse will happen first from within, then their freedom will be taken. It sounds negative, but it is a reality that has happened in all countries at one time in history. The US has not experienced that fall yet. But they will....It will not be pretty and it will affect the entire world.
Great song though....It was fun and hopefully awakens some Americans as to how the world sees them.
I reacted to Deutschland and have been disputing the copyright block. Hopefully, I will get that one up.
@@oldguyreactions That comment of yours about decay from within, giving up freedom etc. reminded me of a famous quote that goes something like "When Fascism comes to America, it won't be in the form of outside actors forcing it upon the people with swastikas and speaking German. No, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross".
Hello, I'm an American and wanted to ask a German person about so much stuff that is lost in translation in the song and music video "Deutschland" - Is there a significance of the red lasers through the song, like in the beginning where it's the battle in the forest against the romans? I thought I had read that it was like a German thing about red thread, or red hair, or something... and that Nietzsche word "ubermench"... there was just so much that was way over my head... such a cool video though
@@arminvoneckerberg8978 What is wrong?
@@20Gero09 Interesting. I don't agree with the quote in the "carrying a cross" but I do agree with the decay from within.
People who love the cross will be persecuted greatly.
The collapse will be due to the lack of belief in the cross.
That scene where a Muslim man bow down doing his prayer towards the Oil plant says it all. Muslims bow down to the direction of their holy city of Meccah, but that was switched into that oil plant. I guess that scene was referring to the US invasion of Iraq and overthrowing Saddam Hussein. We all know how that worked out for the Iraqi people, afterwards. All in the name of democrasy, where in reality it was all about the oil.
In truth, it represents the general state of the Rich Arab countries. Indifferent to the world around them, living behind a sense of security provided by their seemingly endless oil reserves.
Very astute of you.
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
We're all living in America
America, America
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
We're all living in America
America, America
When we dance I want to lead
When you turn yourself around alone
Let us control you a bit
I'll show you how to walk right
We create a lovely round dance
The freedom plays from all violins
Music comes from the White House
And in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
We're all living in America
America, America
I know the very useful steps
And I will protect you from missteps
And who does not want to dance at the end
Does not know that he must dance
We create a lovely round dance
I will show you the direction
To Africa comes Santa Claus
And in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
We're all living in America
America, America
We're all living in America
Coca Cola, Wonderbra
We're all living in America
America, America
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
No, this is not a love song
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
We're all living in America
America, America
We're all living in America
Coca Cola, sometimes war
We're all living in America
America, America
I suggest you read the translated lyrics before reacting to Rammstein, always pushing the envelope with powerful messages and double meanings.
I mean "THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG, I DON'T SPEAK MY MOTHER TONGUE" explains the meaning geez
Yeah and especially, watch what is shown in the video during this! All endogenous ethnic groups that have a lot of reason not to call America their friend! Africans, Native Americans, Eskimos and other... And none of these look very happy!
"This is not a love song!!!"
More Rammstein please. you will not regret it..
9:53, bro, they literally sang: "This is not a love song!" towards the end of the song.
"Und wer nicht tanzt zum Schluß, weiß noch nicht daß er tanzen muß."
(And who don't dance at the end, don't know that he have to dance.)
Hi you guys. That was pretty good. Pretty spot on. I highly recommend the official making of of the song/ video. With english subtitles. Little heads up. This song was written under the events respectively impression of the Iraq war after 9/11. And how America become strange to the rest of the world. Or maybe how the Western countries got a more realistic view on the US. With love from Germany 🤘 😎
"This is not a love song ......"
"Rammstein" might sound familiar to Americans, as there is an US air base in Germany named the same, "Ramstein Air Base." This air base became famous for the 1988 air disaster where dozens died and hundreds were injured.
Please more Rammstein ❤️🤟
i cant believe how wholesome you guys are. greetings from germany. keep it up
Hey guys: "This is not a love song...this is not a love song..."
Great reaction from you too!
Great reaction guys. It’s definitely not a love song as they say. And coming from Scandinavian, and Europan country, I can say for sure that we don’t look up to America, like many seems to think.
Not talking about you guys here 😊
I really enjoy your reactions, and Rammsteins message here too.
Much love!
Where in Scandinavia?
@Sztuczna Inteligencja
Tatooine
Edit: maybe Kamino is more accurate to the weather.
One line sums it all up... "coca cola sometimes war"
There's no doubt that it's a commentary about the influence of the US across the world, the food, Nike trainers, cigarettes, cheerleading, the almost bombastic way of singing as well. It's a critique of the idealised version of the US that's put out. Compare and combine Amerika with RAtM's Sleep Now In the Fire with their emphasis on the problems experienced in the US and you get something closer to reality. This is not a love song, I don't sing my mother tongue is a reference to the fact that Americans don't speak the mother tongue of America. Many languages are spoken but not the original language. Coca Cola sometimes war is obviously the US bringing nice and nasty things to the world, but there's also a slight dig there as the US has been fighting against others for over 250 years now. Finally, there's the nod to the conspiracy theories about the Moon landings. Nice reaction guys and nice to see that you weren't offended by the song.
I mean it’s not a very subtle song. don’t know why some reactors don’t get the message lol
Great commentary, you guys caught on straight away. I can see how it would resonate well with a reggae guy, you could 100% write a reggae song with the same message.
They really didn't tho.
You also should react to their live stuff! It's one of the most special live performances you‘ll experience! (They also don’t get blocked that often 😁)
Credits to Reggae Guy, he saw the adaption of an american style, I didn't realize. Thanks for that.
Great reaction! Greetings from saxony, germany!
Coca Cola, sometimes war...
Awesome how fast you got the sarcasm.
They just released their newest masterpiece Zeit.
Zeitgeist is coming...they keep blocking it. I am trying so hard to get it disputed.
"América" is a continent. USA is not "América", it's just United States of America, a federal state. There are a lot of independent States and cultures in América, not only USA's. Even the title of the Rammstein's song is sarcastic because is imperialist
awesome reaction!
First of all, lovely greets from Germany 👋
But it has nothing to do, with making fun of America, it's about their influence, it's about that it's always "America is so good, and we can be proud to be American" but America also got a dark history, they want to show, what the most people are forgetting about. Sorry if that was bad English :P
For me are the most important lines in that song are *that the white house plays the music and the world dance to it and who don't want to dance, they don't know yet, that they have to dance at the end*
Pronunciation of the black guy - perfect! Beste Grüße!
Edit: And then he got everything so incredibly intuitional right1
You should have a look at the translated lyrics, then you will get a better insight into the meaning of the song.
I can't wait for rammsteins new album coming in April. I'm so damn happy to have a new album by them. It's one of the few good things that the pandemic caused.
turns out it's worth the wait
MORE RAMMSTEIN!!!
Impressive, how fast you got it!
Great react 🫶🫶
Hamburgers originally come from Germany and Pizza from Italy!
reggae guy, excellent pronunciation Rammstein👏👏👏
Nice reaktion.
Greetings from Germany
Last chorus: The US sends everyone "Coca-Cola and sometimes War" Yeah. It is not "celebrating" the US
American culture is so dominating world wide that they even had to write a song about it. Jealous, much?
@@musashi-san____1409 The video relates to US citizens´ attitude as well, i would say that the part that goes "This is not a love song" goes for all those who absorb every foregner´s criticism of the US as a praise and never otherwise. Its even comical that they included that clarification. The world is jealous of the US, thats for sure, yet thats one of the reasons that kept many of you believing that you are the best at everything and superior (like the germans felt in WW2) compared to everyone else.
love how popular rammstein is
The lyrics are an integral part of the 'Gesamtkunstwerk' Rammstein (Rumshtine).
They can't be ignored.
9:55 (Only Americans)
Rammstein: "This is NOT a love song!!!"
Americans: "Mmmm... Maybe they love America..."
XD
Yeah, that was a bit funny. Somehow exactly one point the song wants to tell ... the ignorance of US Americans towards the rest of the World.
"The US is the greatest country of the World everybody must love and envy us"
@@capricorn1970i And the best part is that there's little to no evidence to support the claim that the US is the greatest country on earth or the freeest for that matter...
and whoever doesn't want to dance at the end, doesn't know yet that he has to dance
In Germany we got Wanderlieder (wandersongs) ... and the chorus is in that style. And the song is about the influence of the US all over the world (and that is not always a good thing):
Definitely check out rammstein-du hast , live in Paris. It's amazing live performance
More rammstein :D
You should at least the lyrics of the song bevor or after you react. This song have an really deep meaning.
You talked about the influence of America at 05:09-06:17, but you don't notice the believer getting out of his "NIKES" to pray on the carpet. There are a lot of hidden clues in the video.
But thanks, I really enjoyed the video.
It is not only about the NIKE shoes, he is also praying in direction of the oil.
You two fucking rule!!!
Rammstein ❤🔝🔥
7:36 Solo on the synthesizer
"Coca-Cola, sometimes war" .
i have a Déjà-vu ?
me too?
@@tosa2522 reupload?
@@arnodobler1096 maybe?
Actually, they blocked my first one after 10k views...so I replaced it with this one.
I have 2 others I am trying to dispute. They just keep blocking. I am working my Rammstein reactions like crazy trying to get them public and keep them public.
Did you not get the" this is not a Love Song"?
1:30 oh look its you 😂😂😂
They said “this is not a love song”. So it’s pretty easy to understand that they don’t see the Americanisation of the world as a good thing.
And those who do not voluntarily live in America and dance to their tune will be forced to do so.
The song is a reaction of the changing America after 9/11. Rammstein noticed that America changed its spirit. So they remembered that America conquered the world with the economic power and culture influence that everyone lives in America. But this was achieved not always in a fair way. „Coca Cola, sometimes war“. So yes, it is a sarcastic song. But that is Rammstein. Watch the next time Deutschland from Rammstein. Perhaps a version with Englisch subtitles, because this is much more harsh about Germany. Rammstein pushes the boundaries.
They have 3 songs about 3 different countries. Amerika, moskau, and duetschland. All three of these songs are both pointing out the major flaws and negative histories/influences/impacts in the history of the world. They also in these songs (more in moskau and duetschland) show some respect and positive acknowledgement of how far they've come but still maintaining that they all have a lot to still do to reverse their courses of the negative aspects they've had throughout their histories. Respect plus pointing out the clear negatives. Basically not being so nationalistic about these countries that you can acknowledge their major flaws and failures and horrors that they've caused in the past. First step In becoming better is to acknowledge your failures and try to actively do what you can to make sure those mistakes aren't made again. Like how an addict needs to admit their an addict before they can start to recover.
the left guy gets it a bit, the guy on the right has no clue at all, hillarious!! I like that stuff. The dude on the left was so stunned at all, he did't get die harley in China and much more. The most impressive thing to me is, that you miss the most important part: "Coca-Cola, WONDERBRA", (brest holer/nicer Tit**s). Ceep going on with that stuff. I have to watch the other rammstein reactions too, because America was for sure the most easy to understand message of all songs (reaction of a old german guy to a old american guy)
5:22 These are, of course, Tibetan monks. So that's kind of the basis of general knowledge. the Dalai Lama wears almost exactly the same clothes
But Yeah India....
@Old Guy Reactions - Your buddy is correct about the Conspiracy Theory regarding the famous Moon Landing. There were quite a few people who thought The Moon Landing was a fake and that Stanley Kubrick was involved in filming the footage of the fake Moon Landing. Also, I think that you're right about Rammstein was making fun of the Conspiracy Theory of the US faking the Moon Landing.
My fav version of this is that Kubrick faked the moon landing, but he was such a perfectionist that he made them shoot the film on location
please react to Rammstein "Ich tu dir weh" live in Madison Square Garden
Yessss, coming soon!
@@oldguyreactions 👍😀
Best. Apocalypse. Ever.
They got arrested on the first tour in USA. Because of the performance on the Stage.
It’s just a overall criticism on the US imperialism all over the world. And it starts with the term „Amerika“ because it’s used so commonly but incorrect bcs. America is a continent with several more countries.
Привет. Сарказм в том, что теряются национальные традиции, одежда, песни, еда. Всё становится усреднённым как пицца и гамбургер.
Как бы то ни было 👏🏻 за разбор сюжета. 🎯👌🏻😁
Insidious infiltration of American culture into world cultures...truth. Love Rammstein; they are never afraid to tackle the issues that make many people run for cover.
It was 2004 when the song was released and we all knew what Bush did.. the whole song/video has to be seen as critic towards America. You literally see someone from Irak who's praying and a oil station is in the background. Till sings 'I know the very useful steps, AND I WILL PROTECT YOU FROM MISSTEPS. And who don't want's to DANCE at the end, DOES NOT KNOW THAT HE MUST DANCE (if you don't act like america want's you to act, they will force you to act the way they want)'. 'Coca-Cola, sometimes war' should give you the last hint that this song is definitely not a LOVE SONG 😅. Rammstein actually did cut the 'this is not a love song' part 😅.
as american i would be ashamed seeing this video,thx god im german👍
Lol...I'm not. I get it. America has such an impact on the world that it is natural that others would hate them. My ancestors are from Germany and I am proud of both...German and American influences.
"I never heard about them before".. "Hey remember when they did something like y m c a".. Actors
wir bilden einen lieben Reigen >.< ich werde euch die Richtung zeigen >.< nach Afrika kommt Santa Klaus :O und vor Paris steht Micky Maus >.
"PIZZA"
Cokacola, some times war!
Showing what the cultural influence of America on other cultures is: showeffect, consumerism and - within the lyrics - enforcement of their way ("Wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss, weiss noch nicht, dass er tanzen muss. Ich werde euch die Richtung zeigen." ="he who does not want to dance at the end, does not know yet, that he has to. I will direct you to.") Go figure... ;)
React to “Omar Apollo - invincible” please
Rammstein is a city where a flight catastatrophie on a us airbase happend .And the only critic is that in America you can have a Hot Dog , and a Burger But you cant have Currywurst Pommes hihihi and it´s Time that you can have that in the Us so all the Best to you and buy a Les Paul! not a custom shop Modell no the Standard Gibson from Nashville critic hahah it´s all ok have fun
It is sarcastic.. , believe me , as a German
Black dude you said it 100% correct :D Its Ramstein not Remstein.
It is mainly a long, satirical comment on Americas cultural influence, being so overbearing one might argue it is erasing everything else. It is also a satirical finger, pointing at how everything is fake. It is sarcastic and satire.
I don't speak my Mothertongue >.
RAMM >.< STEIN >.
una sátira
Coca Cola >.< sometimes War >.
Coca Cola ,sometimes war .TRUE😞
please, dont forget, rammstein is from berlin, and they are from east germany, thats the point, ist not west, but its berlin, its a part of east berlin, with his history, we are a spezial city, greetz from west berlin
Please, next time make the lyrics on. Because "America" is a very critical song about the USA and the mentally of the USA.
EXPORT CULTURE USA
they are OLD yes.. but thats OK i guess .. 8)
^^
That is loughing about you the World police and their neg. Influence on the World. BTW its industriel Metal. Rammstein is the Name of a big City in Germany with an big US Base with a tragical Flight accident. A lot of poor people died there....
You need to think about when this song came out - during the bush administration - when their president told the world you are either with us or you not part of us, America! this is not a positive reflection of America at all.
This was done way back in 2004, I think Rammstein should update this song to today’s economic environment it should be we all live in fascist China now!
It's about the "fatness" of America
Simple.. this is not a love song
.I don't speak my mother(native) language.. you get it...or you need more explanation..
What Rammstein is telling the world in this song is that America is all false. So yeah...
EXPORT CULTURE AMERICA
Coca cola sometimes war
CocaCola sometimes war... 🤫
yes they are making fun about america and critise the bad american influence of other cultures.
How can you misunderstand the song like that? Next time maybe check out the lyrics ...
This is everthing else than a love song for America.
Every rammsten song got back story. "Coca cola sametimes war, stral oil and kill innocents" american imperialism killing local nations and cultures.
This is not a lovesong 😉😁
well I would never want to go to usa realy because I would not want to see tents all over the city and there not cared for, my 30days payed vacation nearly free medical care and so on and am totaly free. but naturaly we are influenced by your product and social life as much you are where you think the christmas tree and tradions come altho we have no idea where the pickle in tree comes from easter bunny and eggs and many other thing europe influenced usa
