I guess the inspiration is from Tills time as an athelete when he went to a sports school and the girls there were not interested in the young men just in their training and career.
If you liked this there might be some other fan made videos, especially "Dalai Lama" which was inspired by the german poem "Der Schimmelreiter" or the excellently animated video "Spring" (Jump).
I love the structure of this song. The first half has that slow eerie chill vibe as Till describes the stalker just watching. Then bang! The song changes and gets harder as the story gets more physical and stays that way. The two parts, fire and water.
Hi D. Great reaction. That was a pleasant surprise, me mentioning the song the other day and there you are reacting to it. Regarding your analysis imo perfect interpretation. My exact same take. It's about daydreaming of somebody you are attracted to, just taken by. And at the same time you instantly know, anything beyond that dream is never going to happen. The song is in my top five of their catalogue. So powerful. It starts so quiet and soothing (for me as a German 😅). Love the moment, when the guitars hit. And than the solo. Superb. The lyrics, the picture they paints in your mind are fantastic. Boy, did you feel uncomfortable in the beginning reading the lyrics😂. Being a little goofy. Love you Btw, the video is by educatedmarine. With love from Germany 🤘🏻 ❤
OW what a POEM.... TILL ALWAY'S MAKE'S A SHORT STORY OUT OF HIS WORD'S.... AND RICHARD AND HIS RIFF'S... THIS IS SUCH A GOOD SONG I MUST USE THIS AS MY RINGTONE... 🤜🤛❤🤘💯
It's definitely a story about stalking. It's about the guy, who knows that you will never get the girl he wants, maybe because she's beautiful, and he isn't, maybe because she's rich, and he isn't, maybe she has a higher social standing or role and he hasn't. The fire and water are definitely a metaphor for that as well as a metaphor for his hot desire/lust and her beauty and and emotionlessness towards him. "Glatt wie ein Fisch" (slippery as an eel {adj} [idiom] - glatt wie ein Aal [Redewendung]) means superficial perfection with a shady core (blaming / hate-loving her) and could also mean he can never hold her, or she is unreachable. But it could also mean that he grabbed her and did something to her, while "kalt wie Eis" (clod as ice) could describe her feelings for him as well as hinting towards murder. Although definitely sxu al it is very poetic and well thought through.
Hi D, thank you for choosing this one. A typical wonderful Till lyric. Please listen to Dalai Lama, I'm sure you'll be excited about that song especially the lyrics.
Every man who had swam breaststroke after a women who also swam breaststroke know exactly what Till sings about here. Under water with swimming googles on everything get magnified and zoomed in....
Nice one D...its funny to me as my taste in music is rock/ metal.... Rammstein is one of the rare bands for me who just never let me down musically or lyrically..we dont need to talk live as they are the best live band on the planet.Thanks D,looking forward to the next one!!
I am going to start adding a particular Patreon die hard Rammstein FAN Comments when I am lucky enough that he sends me the info .....so here is one for this Video :) Backgroundinfo about Rammstein's Feuer und Wasser "Feuer und Wasser" is a song that explores the dichotomy between fire and water, drawing a parallel to the complexities within relationships and human desire. The lyrics depict Till's fascination with a woman while using vivid imagery and metaphors related to fire and water to illustrate the intensity and conflicting emotions experienced. The song begins with Till's expressing his appreciation for the woman's beauty as he mentions her breasts and how they hold his attention. However, he clarifies that it is not just the physicality of her chest that captivates him; rather, it is her essence that draws him in. The mention of "Funkenstaub" (sparks) flowing from her center and a "Feuerwerk" (firework) emerging from her crotch further emphasizes the metaphorical connection between the woman and fire, symbolizing her irresistible allure and passionate nature. The chorus, "Feuer und Wasser kommt nicht zusammen, Kann man nicht binden, sind nicht verwandt" (Fire and water don't come together, Can't be bound, are not related), acts as a refrain, repeating throughout the song as a reminder of the inherent incompatibility of these two opposing elements. The use of the elements fire and water in this context symbolizes the opposing nature of the two individuals involved in the relationship - Till and the woman he desires. They are unable to coexist harmoniously, much like fire and water. The second verse depicts Till's desire to see the woman from a different perspective, behind her, revealing a desire for intimacy and a deeper connection. The mention of her breasts and the imagery of her legs opening like scissors further allude to the sexual tension and desire present in the narrative. The lyrics then describe how desire illuminates and inflames Till, portraying him as being consumed by the passion he feels for her. The bridge of the song portrays a sense of resignation and powerlessness from Lindemann. He acknowledges that the woman does not notice him as she swims by, and he feels like only a shadow, unseen and insignificant in her presence. The lyrics emphasize that there is no hope or confidence in realizing a relationship with her. In the final verse, the lyrics become more explicit in their depiction of desire and physicality. Till describes how his blood boils in his loins, while his wet hands firmly hold onto the woman. The metaphors "Glatt wie ein Fisch" (smooth as a fish) and "kalt wie Eis" (cold as ice) depict her unattainability and emotional distance. The line "Sie wird sich nicht an mich verschwenden, Ich weiß" translates to "She will not waste herself on me, I know." This final statement reveals Till's acknowledgment that his desires are futile and unreciprocated. Overall, "Feuer und Wasser" delves into the complexities of desire, the unattainable nature of certain relationships, and the contradictory emotions that arise from such situations. Through the powerful imagery of fire and water, Rammstein explores themes of passion, unrequited love, and the inherent contradictions that exist in human relationships.
In my opinion, Till is describing a fan who describes his relationship with his idol. He knows her most intimate secrets. He is in the shadows, she is in the light. And when he finally gets very close to her and shakes her hand, her hands are as cold as ice and she shows no interest in her fan.
.. and Ive been that fan so many times, unrequited lust/love /infatuation whatever they call it nowa days, probably call you a stalker ..waiting for her to even look your direction and when she does just looks right through you, uugh, to many sad memorys this song brings up..
wonder if Nina and Till ever met up, they must had as their both from East Germany, and talk about the perfect couple, Till and Nina...ok, I know, wishful thinking ..never mind
I've never really taken to this one. I like the first quiet half, then when it hits it seems to go nowhere new, it just wanders on to the end. Ah well, I see it's a favorite for others so maybe it's just me. As I've said before, it would be very boring if we all liked the same things - what would we argue about eh? LOL.
![Rammstein - Frühling in Paris (Live from Paris) [Subtitled in English] - REACTION](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Z6zfmSglqGk/mqdefault.jpg)
one of the most underrated Songs ever😍
It’s about a person who admires and looks up to someone, but is not getting recognised and is always overlooked.
We all know that feeling.. sadly
One of the best Lyrics from Rammstein
Another one awesome song ❤ Till voice is fire🔥
I guess the inspiration is from Tills time as an athelete when he went to a sports school and the girls there were not interested in the young men just in their training and career.
Yet another underrated gem from the boys! After I first discovered them last May I realised I’d come across a music phenomenon. No one comes close! 🤘
One of my all time favs of this band. So deep. Love it. "Weit weg" goes in the same direction.
If you liked this there might be some other fan made videos, especially "Dalai Lama" which was inspired by the german poem "Der Schimmelreiter" or the excellently animated video "Spring" (Jump).
By far my most loved Rammstein song, you are right, is just amazing! greetings from Guadalajara, MX
one of my favourite songs from them. brutal but beautiful
I love this song ❤
please react to “Helloman”. It's a song about a man who lures a little girl into his car and kidnaps her.
Greetings from germany 👋

Another great reaction D, this is another hidden gem from the album Rosenrot. A very underrated album , but I love it!

I think you were talking about "Ach So Gern"? In the snowy prison?
An exceptional song. Danke!
I will always love Rammstein ! Your reaction to, you are my fav american of all times ! Greatings and love from germany Eva ♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️
Every man who had swam breaststroke after a women who also swam breaststroke know exactly what Till sings about here. Under water with swimming googles on everything get magnified and zoomed in....
Another Rammstein gem that is often overlooked.
Unrequited desire. This is a poem, Till is the master of metaphors and allegories.💥💦
Saludos excelente reacción una pena no comprender algunas palabras en inglés se lo aprecia amigo.
Donau Kinder!!
My interpretation is that these are the thoughts of a stalker
Yup, mine, too...
Exactly. And this stalker even grabs her ("Ich halt sie fest mit nassen Händen")!
Correct
Yes just an interpretation.... it's not mine
thats a good point!!! I agree, makes more sense
Oh yeah! One of the best songs. Thank you!!!! And you recognize the meaning in seconds ;-)
Nice one D...its funny to me as my taste in music is rock/ metal.... Rammstein is one of the rare bands for me who just never let me down musically or lyrically..we dont need to talk live as they are the best live band on the planet.Thanks D,looking forward to the next one!!
Creepy but oh, so beautiful.
Such a great great song ❤

Beautiful Song 🤩🤩🤩
Love your Rammstein reactions 🥰
If you love Nina Hagen so much definitely check out her cover of Rammstein's song Seemann. So good!!
we did!
One of my faves
6:35 Indeed, the musically BABOOWWM turns up surprisingly late in this song.
never let your wife see the end of this video😂
LOL
*Banger Song*
Rammstein ❤❤❤❤❤❤
..at 3:17, that woke me up lol
in the end of the song he touches her,but that is also the last thing that happens.
In my opinion, Till is describing a fan who describes his relationship with his idol. He knows her most intimate secrets. He is in the shadows, she is in the light. And when he finally gets very close to her and shakes her hand, her hands are as cold as ice and she shows no interest in her fan.
.. and Ive been that fan so many times, unrequited lust/love /infatuation whatever they call it nowa days, probably call you a stalker ..waiting for her to even look your direction and when she does just looks right through you, uugh, to many sad memorys this song brings up..
Please check out Dalai Lama, great lyrics.
He did, 2 months ago
The reaction to "Dalai Lama" already exists from him.
Хорошо
i used to skip this song because i wouldn't hear the second half, but for some time now, it's my favorite song along with Morgenstern
👍❤
wonder if Nina and Till ever met up, they must had as their both from East Germany, and talk about the perfect couple, Till and Nina...ok, I know, wishful thinking ..never mind
Nina is far too old for Till. Her daughter Cosma probably wouldn't be young enough either.
@@fixzeichner5592 It's only an age difference of 8 years. I've heard of much greater.
I've never really taken to this one. I like the first quiet half, then when it hits it seems to go nowhere new, it just wanders on to the end. Ah well, I see it's a favorite for others so maybe it's just me. As I've said before, it would be very boring if we all liked the same things - what would we argue about eh? LOL.
Nina would talk to you no doubt. Have you seen her cover version of "Seemann"?
He has, he reacted to it....think was around last november. 😊
yes and thats her best one so far (for me)
you need to check out Stirbt Nicht Vor Mir
Лучше не смотреть это ,а просто слушать !!!
