Ok, here's the meaning of the video. All this stuff is happening during war. Listen carefully when he leaves the building and comes back in colour -- you can hear multiple gunshots and bomb blasts. More of that, all these girls are in military uniform. The people are not actually hanged, they all died in this war. And Till's left alone. He drinks and takes drugs, then plays for his dead friends and family members. And every time he dreams about his own death as this is the only way to see his relatives again - on heaven. Lyrics say: don't cry even when I'll be dead. So he never actually commits suicide. He keeps playing, taking drugs and dreaming, from day to day. Just waiting for his turn to die.
Some background: The song is a german traditional from East Prussians (Ost Preusen) that are mainly parts of Poland today. It is 1st mentioned in a songbook from 1924. The lyrics are slightly different to later known interpretations done e.g. Marlene Dietrich ( ruclips.net/video/M5Ql6voNjJ0/видео.html ), Heino, Karel Gott etc. I think it's a song about death but TIll has turned it with this video more into a suicide topic(?) It became a popular song in the Post WW2 post years in Germany. It gave melancholy but also some hope to the people I tried to translate - but please be aware: non-professional Every day is not a Sunday / Every day there is no wine / But you shall all the days /quite kind to me / And when I am dead / You shall think of me / Even in the evening before you fall asleep / But you shall not cry. And when it is dark / Grey hair and grey mind / Let it glow, let it glow / How glad I am then / And when I am dead / I want you to think of me / Even in the evening before you fall asleep / But you shall not cry.
The song was from the time shortly after WWI and the spanish flu, which killed over 50 Million people. It was popular all over Germany and stayed popular until the 50th. It is not by accident that a picture of the corona virus is on the cover of the single. The song is about loss and death. you can google the translation. Till did only use the first and the third verse of the lyrics.
So I looked at the cover art for the single and it looks exactly like a covid cell. I think this video has lots of meaning but I think it mostly shows the depression a lot of us are facing with covid and not being able to see people. I think like one of the other comments said that when he dreams its of people being together again. As I said there are many means I think.

I´m a philosopher ..... and I haven´t got a clue. :) But I guess you have to put it somehow into context to the actual Corona/Covid-19 crisis.
To say the actual truth that got through my mind but after I saw the military uniform I changed my mind 😃
sorry - current crisis
@@thelifeoftinos this Party sequence is like a silo scene during WW2 and IMHO the uniforms are German soldier’s uniforms.
Rammstein sonne 2010 please next
Check out Lindemann Knebel
its like a golem
Let's wait for the philosophers who will tell us what the meaning of the video is.
Haha exactly brother 😅😂
Let me fix this for you: „Lets wait for the guys who like to learn about songs unlike me. I‘m just here to diss people.“
