Their songs are mostly open to interpretation, they rarely really explain anything. Which is why everyone can find something they relate to in their lyrics. As the other commenter said, there is a notion about immigration here, but just that would be too simple for Rammstein. In general, it is primarily about the fear installed by the media and politicians, and how we went from a communal life to what we have today, with hate, fear, paranoia, distrust towards each other, and media fuelling it all up because it sells.
For everyone who don't know, here in germany exists a child game calld "wer hat angst vorm schwarzen mann" in English "whos afraid of the boogeyman (black man)"
damn I just realized that.. that's crazy. Like a metaphor saying if you only watch whats in the tv you'll only see the world black and white, good/bad and nothing in between.

lol, yeah lets have some fun, after the last two super intense videos but I did notice Rick wearing a crucifix, maybe save that for later and ''Puzzy' as well, ''Keine Lust'' probably a safer bet
The black man is a boogie man. But it has a dual purpose here because it also refers to racist hate of immigration being used to manipulate people. You can see the refugee camp at the beginning and the things they are eating at the end used to have a racist name. Did you notice the band members also play the cheerleaders when they are in the triangular formation approaching the camera. Great costume and makeup!
Your interpretation was on point. There is so much room for interpretation in this video. At the beginning they had a good Life and good relations with their neighbour. Enjoying Barbecue, mowing the lawn...nothing to worry about. But then they fell into the trap of the Media, that is planting fear into their mind. They build up walls, watching the neighbour (who were once friends) closely. Only consume one "news" source and living in a bubble, that don´t except other Opinions. It still happens everyday on this World with different politcal Parties. If you think a about time back then, you could discuss with other People and now many people just don´t want that anymore. If you have another Opionion, they shut you down. In the End they are isolated, so in fear of strangers, foreign People, People who are different from the Opinions and even their neighbours. The Trigger-Finger is rdy to defend themselves from a self created fear, that they shoot up there own Place. Then everthings breaks and falls apart. Really love the deeper meanings of their Songs. Sorry it good a bit out of hand with the comment :D And hope my english wasn´t to bad on this one.
Jus think on Trump, Fox News and co, then you have it. Look at that ending again, the more Till damages the TV, the more colour comes back into their lives
There comes a time when lovers of good lawns start buying bricks. Guns, like everything else, don't get to them for free either, I think. Fear is literally being sold to them for their money. And this leads them to a diet, to an old TV that broadcasts what they are so afraid of. Something that is very strange to be afraid of. And there are cheerleaders who are happy with what is happening from start to finish. I think cheerleaders are really scary by nature. The only people scarier than them are those who stand behind them. And who got their piece of bloody meat because of it.
The translation is poorly chosen for English speakers at an important point. The black man should actually be translated as boogeyman for better understanding, since this is about fear.
..very adpt for this age, with the rise of the right and spreading fear, its almost as if Rammstein predicted it and your right about the black man, its the boogyman they mean also the black and red thyme, its the colours of the far right, not bad Rick, good job
Although schwarzmanm literally translates as black man it does mean Boogie man

Hey chat 👍if u think he is ready for "Bück dich"
lol, yeah lets have some fun, after the last two super intense videos but I did notice Rick wearing a crucifix, maybe save that for later and ''Puzzy' as well, ''Keine Lust'' probably a safer bet
Nobody ever is really ready for "Bück dich"... 😂
@@juergenstange6844 lol
😂 that’s the biggest test. Don’t really know if he’s the type that would be easily offended 😉
@@jezza117 Yeah, that crucifix...
Better stay away from "Zeig dich" or "Hallelujah". 😜

In Germany the Schwarze Man is the Bogeyman. The immigrants are the woman and child, the rest is self explanatory
Oh man the old TV Time is running so fast😢

Your English is perfect. Thanks for watching and commenting. 🤘
Good Reaction! 👍
A great Video und Song!
And yes, we are talking about the Boogyman!
Thanks for reacting! Highly appreciate it 🙏
Any time. Thanks for watching.
Outro: when he broke the T.V the colors réappears...
You get the topic right👍
The story of the "Black Man" has its roots in the Black Plague.
Jus think on Trump, Fox News and co, then you have it. Look at that ending again, the more Till damages the TV, the more colour comes back into their lives
more honestly, it could be either party as both try to use fear of the 'other' side to get votes
Great interpretation, on point! ❤
Thanks for watching

Wow! Thanks for watching.
Populism and fear-mongering
Till's hairstyle is no coincidence Trump and Boris Johnson etc.
In my opinion.
Not to forget the cheerleaders selling bricks and guns … they represent the people who make money from that created fear
Thanks for the great reaction video!)
I would like to recommend watching "Adieu" from Rammstein.
Thanks for watching.
'Schwarzer Man' really translates to 'the boogey man', not 'black man'.
The translation is poorly chosen for English speakers at an important point. The black man should actually be translated as boogeyman for better understanding, since this is about fear.
..very adpt for this age, with the rise of the right and spreading fear, its almost as if Rammstein predicted it and your right about the black man, its the boogyman they mean also the black and red thyme, its the colours of the far right, not bad Rick, good job
You fear the rise of the right and you would like to put up walls with barbed wire, arm yourself and stop the evil right-wingers. Good job!
Cheerleader = MAGA 🤡🤡?
I think message is: near blacks, never relax
No, it`s not
