Till's expressive baritone and theatrical instincts always evoke for me the fiercely giddy excesses of 1920s Berlin. Chilling!
Till is the bass. How many baritones can hit the low notes that have been demonstrated, well take for example Stein um Stein Live Volkerball 2005
@@scar2539hehe, Hans Hotter...
The location for this video was the Beelitz sanatorium near Berlin (built 1905-1907). This was a neurological clinic for tuberculosis patients in Eastern Germany, which was later used by the Russians as a military base. Today the large site and its buildings are empty and are often used as a filming location for TV and music productions! There were many sanitary facilities in the buildings, including clinical bathrooms that were used by patients. This explains the depression in the ground that can be seen in the video. Greetings from Hamburg!
‼️ wow, that’s interesting, thanks for that info! 👍
@@YourOnlineSingingCoachseconded
Ohne dich isn't scary.
Its sad and beautiful.
Ye, it hits home.... the saddness😢
The smile is very creepy, but the slow fade back to sadness is what really makes it unsettling for me
The smile is from a tortured soul / demon (Who Till is portraying) trying to imitate a smile without understanding what a smile really is
Ohne Dich is actually a legit Rammstein ballad. I do recommend that song
His playful smile kills me ... ‼️
soooo GREAT‼️
He has a great awareness of his own appearance and body language. That micro movement when he first starts singing is absolutely intentional and a great example of that.
"Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought you something
Have ripped it out of my chest
With this heart, I have the power
Blackmail the eyelids
I sing until the new day comes
A bright light in the heaven's sky"
I helieve that scary smile is how the sandman feels good to help the children go to sleep but he has to fend off all the demons and darkness. I feel a sadness when insee that smile like someone who will never be appreciated but still does his job. Makes me cry every time
Actually he is the evil version of the sandman (a german tale about a fairy bringing good dreams to children).
He is bringing nightmares. But the real sad part is, that he is feeling all the pain the kids feel in their dreams.
It hurts a lot, so his "heart burns"
Thx for great reaction and analyze. "Ohne dich" is on of their softer ballads so if you want to hear that I recommend that one. "Ich tu der weh" (live) is heavy and dark but there you will hear Till belting in a higher range in the chorus.
Yes... the cuts on Till Lindemann are real ❣️
I believe its supposed to be a play on childhood nightmares & the idea of a sandman coming & taking sleeping children, that very old kind of folklore, scary story time we've all grown up with, and this is his theatrical & musical take on that, is he the villain or the hero. The smile without it spreading through the eyes is amazingly expressionist...my fave part. Very heartfelt, touching song.
This song shows his voice, but there are other "ballads." Frühling in Paris, Ohne Dich, Diamant & Zeit are all really good choices! As for this song, it's about nightmares & children's stories in Germany, some say a specific children's program that caused nightmares. Brothers Grimm were German. Just look at their children's stories!!
"The Sandman" is also a short story of German writer Enst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann, which is one of the first examples to feature a robot in modern literature. Hoffmann's version of the story of the sandman is chilling and very effective, it has a lot of elements which the atmosphere of this music video and the song's lyrics evoke. At least in my mind there are a lot of connections between these materials, a lot of shared elements and allusions. Which are really scary on one hand. The figure of the sandman is definitely haunting, in this actual version also sad and tragic. Till Lindemann's smiles are soo creepy and well acted. Just a treasure.
If they gave Oscars for music video performances, Till would win with this one!
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach That's absolutely possible, I agree. 😃☺
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach it's the very same E.T.A. Hoffmann whose stories Jacques Offenbach refered to in his opera "Les Contes d'Hoffmann". Practically "Mein Herz brennt" could be seen the dark origin story of "Olympia".
The way you started screaming when Till smiled made me laugh out loud :D Great reaction, thank you
Lovely. Love from Germany
"Frühling in Paris" is a little bit of a love song ❤
If you want a really good ballad from them check out Ohne Diche
A modern day Classic!
Ooh, Ohne Dich is so beautiful. Sad and melancholy with a hint of frustration. It has a subtler distortion (overdrive, maybe? not an expert) in Till's voice than this one or Du Hast. It has my vote for your next Rammstein reaction.
If you want a true rammstein ballad (talks about love) you can hear "amour". There is no videoclip though only the studio version. It is not a so well known ballad but nevertherless a beautiful song.
Yes, awesome song. Vocally very interesting as well.
It's my favorite song. How he purrs.
But there is a video, but it's from a fan. 😂
Next one should be Zeit for sure.
I have to say, even as a fan of horror myself, Till’s smile is especially unsettling. But I am sure that is the effect he intended as an artist.
What a fantastic analysis and reaction.
Thank you! 🙏😊
Masterpiece!!😍
Till Lindemann is awesome artist. Till feat Zaz Le Jardin Des Larmes (feat. Till Lindemann)
Well, she asked for a lovesong. 😉 this would be my suggestion as well
Love your react! Thank you!
At this point, Rammstein already has quite a few ballads, each of which is a marvel. However, I would like to point out that Till's poetry is one of the main instruments in a symphony called Rammstein. Therefore, I wish that people making reactions would at least read the translation of the text... Unfortunately, the video on the official channel is only posted with German subtitles. However, there are two excellent channels which put Rammstein songs with English subtitles: educatedmarine and Bucksttabu.
I highly recommend an absolute masterpiece -
Zeit (with English subtitles at educatedmarine - ruclips.net/video/VFSEi_oLlsg/видео.html )
Also with English subtitles from the same channel:
Amour (unofficial fan clip ruclips.net/video/6XqSfGiSlNk/видео.html)
Feuer und Wasser (unofficial fan clip ruclips.net/video/78aSJUb8nrA/видео.html)
Donaukinder (unofficial fan clip ruclips.net/video/qF8WFUE9mps/видео.html)
Ohne Dich (official music video ruclips.net/video/Evu9Lk9nfZw/видео.html)
Seemann (official music video, one of the first videos of the band and one of the very first ballads ruclips.net/video/3Sk_kmbmFnI/видео.html )
English subtitled video from Bucksttabu channel:
Diamant (live version: ruclips.net/video/zBjMNh935gk/видео.html)
Mutter (the live version, in my opinion, is much more dramatic than the official clip, and here it is: ruclips.net/video/I26nDTqj_IU/видео.html )
Greetings from Germany 😊
Wow, great, great reaction and explanation. Totally appropriate to the song.
Try Rammstein - Ohne Dich (Official Video)(English Lyrics). educatedmarine have it on his channel.
Die Geschichte die Till hier erzählt ist eine freie aber im Kern wahre Geschichte. Bei diesem Song spielt auch der Drehort der genau an dem Platz wo er diese Geschichte erzählt geschehen ist.
Sowohl der Ort als auch die Geschehnisse sind hier authentisch und für den song extrem relevant
The darkness reminds me of Brahms "Liebestreu" (O versenk' dein Leid, mein Kind, in die tiefe See) ...
Hello! When he looks into your eyes, you get the feeling that he robs your soul! Greetings Nephilim
He has the stage presence of a dark opera singer.
Hello there. If you would like to enjoy a real Love song (with just a tiny Rammstein style edge 😊) and Till's beautiful voice performance, I recommend "Frühling in Paris- spring in Paris". Lyrically absolutely beautiful. There is custom made video by educatedmarine (studio version) or you might wanna check out the live performance in Paris.
With love from Germany
Great Reaction. If you want to know how Tills amazing voice sounds ich tu dir weh live is a perfect song. Diamant live also, Rammlied live.
Lots of choices, looking forward to checking out many more!
If you want to dive a little more into Till's voice try the newer number ZEIT from their newer record it's utterly beautiful and not so dark especially the official video is also a beautiful piece
The piano version is art and nightmare at the same time - brilliant piano play by Flake, unmatched! I also recommend the original video!
Did you notice it? At the very end as the lights are fading the white smoke? I believe the white smoke/mist you see in the very end as the lights slowly go off was his spirit/Soul.
I think that he was finally able to ascend...after making sure all the children were safe and at the same time atoning for his past sins he was finally set free.
The original was released in 2001 then the piano version in 2012 so it follows the story from Till in the orphanage to protecting the kids and the emotions he shows is mainly anger followed by sadness then in the piano version his emotions are kinda bitter sweet? He realizes he had to do things he didn't want to do to save the children. So now that he's done, he is finally set free. thats of course my own interpretation of the video/song❤️🔥🤗
Welcome to the Rammstein rabbit hole!
A few to check out...

Didnt know, you understand german. Fun reaction.
Die Lyrics - Stoff für Alpträume😁
Ich verstehe besser als ich spreche! 😊
Rammstein is great, but when Till is doing solo project like here with that incredible piano player Sven he is going on another level. Another great cooperation is with the relatively unknown singer Kovacs : ruclips.net/video/Oh-snpJvmKY/видео.html
I love your channel ❤
Pennywise meets the joker and has a nightmare. Love this masterpiece
Thanks for the reaction and analysis of Till's singing. If you want more ballads from Rammstein, you could check out the following:
Frühling in Paris (could actually considered a love song - in a way), Roter Sand, Seemann, Nebel, Stirb nicht vor mir, Diamant, Ohne dich, Wo bist du, Wilder Wein, Klavier, Donaukinder.
He recently sang a duet with Kovacs, a singer from the Netherlands. The song is called, Child of sin. It's really remarkable how Till comes out of nowhere. 🤗🎶
I think the last scene is reminiscent of the end of Don Giovanni where the ghost of the man he killed pulls him down to the pit of Hell....Just an idea of course! I think it is a stunning piece of music and it is worth finding the back story on it too, it is a strong allegory IMHO.
A real ballad about love and loss would be "ohne dich". Just to let you know he has those as well. :D Edit: it's still intense though, but really beautiful.
Real ballad? I was under the impression that ballad just means a slow piece or a narrative poem which was transfered into music ... and in the 19th century a ballade was explicit a genre of piano pieces without other instruments written in a narrative (balletic style). This for me is really an outstanding example of a ballad... "Ohne Dich" is a ballad in the way it is slow and kind of narrative, hard and energetic as well in some parts. By the way "Ohne Dich" for me is not about love and loss like a common lovesong. Topic is the way how yourself or the inner part of you can be alone/ lonely in a relationship - yeah need its own space.
@@BalleehuuuI am a bit confused by your comment, because I think it came across to me in a way you probably didn't mean it. It kind of just seems like you are taking any minute detail of my phrasing and criticising it, but I don't think that's what you meant to do. Anyway, the phrase "ballad of love and loss" was a reference to what people associate with ballads, i.e. a tender ballad about love. I agree with what you said about the content of "ohne dich", it deals with a different aspect of love, and with the loneliness described in the song, loss. Which is what I love about Rammstein; that even when they sing about common topics, they find a way to approach it in a way that is not stereotypical. All the best to you!
@@ared-ainu I really was a little outraged by your implication, that "mein Herz brennt" is not a real ballad. But yeah it may come across a little pedantic ... but for me this is THE real ballad - like the ones I studied for my college degree in German literature.
This is a perfect example of the german tradition of Spreachgesang. As a vocal coach you should know this. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprechgesang
He is playing a very dark version of The Sandman, and the lyrics are inspired by an old german lullaby.
😧Gothic! That was Edgar Allen Poe/Mary Shelley/Brothers Grimm meet Phantom of the Opera ! Never mind the kids, if I heard his voice coming out of my pillow at night, I wouldn't get any sleep either 😬 Great little piece of theatre though 😁
I'ave read somewhere that the band weren't to happy when they noticed the cuts on Till which are real I believe, they felt he took advantage of Till wiliness to suffer for his art and haven't worked with him since but think Till has on his solo projects, but it's just haunting beautiful and shows how much artist he is.
This is great art. Check mein herz brennt from the Mutter Tour in 2001. Then you'll see the greatness of this version.
He is the demon that scares the nightmares away but only in the night
I’ve heard his diction is from his father being a writer and teaching him proper German.
Check out the lyrics to this. You think Tills smile is creepy!
There'll never be another like Till Lindeman.
You are right, they don't do the typical lovesongs. Ich tu Dir weh has a lot of variation and shows of Tills voice but the text.... well, not the classic lovesong.
Ohne Dich is probalbly closest to what you are looking for.
Maybe also Rosenrot.
Hervorragend. Liebe Grüsse aus München.
I love watching reactions of this song. If you want a love song from Rammstein, listen to Ohne Dich.
[Intro]
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought you something
Have ripped it out of my chest
With this heart, I have the power
Blackmail the eyelids
I sing until the new day comes
A bright light in the heaven's sky
[Chorus]
My heart burns
[Verse 1]
They come to you at night
Demons, ghosts and black elves
They crawl up from the cellar rows
And will take a look under your blanket
[Pre-Chorus]
Little children listen now
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought something to you
A bright light in the heaven's sky
[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
Verse 2]
They come to you at night
And steal your small hot tears
They wait till the moon awakes
And push them in my cold veins
[Pre-Chorus]
Little children listen now
I am the voice from the pillow
I sing 'til the day awakes
A bright light in the heaven's sky
[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns
[Verse 3]
With this heart I have the power
To blackmail the eyelids
I sing 'til the day wakes up
A bright light in the heaven's sky
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Chorus]
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns (My heart)
My heart burns
(My heart burns)
(My heart burns)
Have a look at "Frühling in Paris" or "Stirb nicht vor mir", wonderful ballads
If you want a happy love song check out Fruhlung in Paris. But the upside here is now if someone threatens your life, you will say "Shut up, idiot. I listen to Rammstein." We scare normal people. Glad to have you. Anyway I know I spelled it wrong, spring in paris, a lovely song about...looking forward to you being shocked.
I think you will like "ohne dich" the official video.
Many of the things they do are rather rough, always give you something to think about and are never boring. Among their later videos "Zeit" is no doubt an audiovisual masterpiece and certainly less creepy, but therefore also less typical, because taking a closer look at the darker sides of humanity is a very typical Rammstein feature.
I would recommend "Angst" because it is (i think) easy to understand and doesn't offer quite such a huge amount of possibilities for interpretation as most of their songs, also the way the colors (espacially red) are used in the video are relativaly clear.
The performance (live or video) always is important, you should get versions with good captions or a good translation ready, if you intend to do more videos about Rammstein.
Yes, their videos are just art. I have the feeling that they also like acting. 🎭
Rammlied also has some interesting things going on vocally
Funny is, he actually had real tears and also real cuts on his body. And the song is up to a night story for kids 😅
Till would play an amazing Joker with that smile
1000%!!!!
RAMMSTEIN _ DEUTSCHLAND
May I ask you, how your german becomes so good? Did you life in germany or are you even german, because it's perfect. Couldn't hear an accent.... and your english sounds for me perfect as well.
Vielen dank! 🙏 I lived in Germany as a child for a few years 😊
Actually the song Diamond 💎 is a nice kinda love song.
"Ohne Dich" is beautiful and not scary. :)
You're very brave! 🤣
the word is THEATRICAL.....that's it
a little guide:
"Mein Herz Brennt (My Heart Burns)
This is song about how men are bound to hide their feelings since late childhood, by picturing it like a child’s nightmare that hardens one’s heart."
❤️MY HEART BURNS 🔥
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought you something
Have ripped it out of my chest
I have the power with this heart
to blackmail the eyelids
I sing until the new day comes
a bright glow in the sky
My heart burns
They come to you in the night
Demons ghosts black fairies
they crawl out of the cellar shaft
and will look under your blankets
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I brought you something
a bright glow in the sky
My heart burns
My heart burns
They come to you in the night
and steal your little hot tears
they wait until the moon awakes, yes
and squeeze my cold veins
Now, dear children, pay attention
I am the voice from the pillow
I sing until the new day comes
a bright glow in the sky
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns
My heart burns, yes!
My heart burns
It's kinda like Japanese Kabuki made love with Dr. Caligari in his cabinet.
If you want a break from the harshness of Rammstein, you could try Babymetal - Monochrome piano version.
Oh yeah, if you want to cry definitely check out Ohne Dich. You will get in touch with your emotions. Then do Zeit and Seeman to put nails in your heart. Art should disturb you.
Or if your are just interested in Till singing a ballad, there's always his duet with Zaz, Le jardin de larmes. It is in French.
React to Rammlied live ❤❤
if you something more "soft" check out "Roter Sand" :)
The beauty of this song, and the artisic ingenuity: It hits me every time the same way. No matter how often I am hearing it. The chills, the haunting, the unsettlment.
Next one could be this "lovesong" duet with french singer TAZ, written by Till:
Le jardin des larmes ruclips.net/video/iR2IuOasSYU/видео.html
BTW: loved your reaction.
Yes, this one really struck me with - as you put it - the artistic ingenuity (love that! I may have to use that sometime 😹) 👍
very special song! like your reaction, your german pronunciation is remarkable. Please check out "The dark side of the moon - New horizons", came out a week ago! Incredible heartwarming ballad with two nice female singers!
Cool, thanks for the suggestion and the kind words!
Till portrays the 'Sandman', the voice from the pillow ( ich bin die stimmer aus dem kissen ) who may (a) protect the children ( liebe kinder ) from the monsters in their nightmares or (b) allow their terrors to continue until the morning, when there is light from heaven ( ein heller schein am firmament )....while this portrayal is terrifying, the 'Sandman' cares for children, which may be why his heart burns ( mein herz brennt ) .........
Till would be the best "Joker" actor of all time. (Sorry Heath. You've been brilliant)
Next reaction Deden Gonzales she's gone thank you ❤
I’ve done that one, search it on my channel, that was a very impressive performance! 👍
You noticed the German "Lied" influence !
You should look up the lyrics (I guess You understood some of it) then You see that the story is about the sandman that admits to the children he visits that he is the voice coming out of the pillow at night. The performance is much creepier when You understand the text at the same time.
"The Sandman" by ETA Hoffmann (not a children story... ) was one of the most important stories of German Romanticism. As You know Your stuff (You mentioned the German Kunstlied from the Romantic era by Schubert and Schumann) You might notice that You surely met Hoffmann in Your music education several times. Probably not his compositions (though he was indeed also a composer) but as inspiring author for the opera Offenbach's "Tales of Hoffmann" and the ballet Tchaikovsky's "Nutcracker and the Mouse King".
But back to Schumann: He and Hoffmann were the first important music critics!
react to: ZAZ - Le jardin des larmes feat. Till Lindemann (Clip officiel) - for a love song from Till 🙂
"Seemann" is their very first ballad, so beautiful... The official video is good.
Or this iconic live version from 1996 ruclips.net/video/W-TcLmW72CM/видео.html
I recommend Ohne Dich, much less creepy ;)
Thank you, it’s officially on the list!
Where do u come from?
US but I lived in Germany for a few years as a kid 😊
hahahh Till sing an old German song for Kids they have to go to Bed . Evry German knowns this Song .
Hey, look lindemann-"wer weiss das schon"
Que manera de sufrir 😬
Hi, the problem is when you start with Sven Helbig's version, you can't understand the story that is told in the other video with the band....and the place where the action takes place hasn't no particular meaning. (Apart from the creepy aspect)
In fact you have lost at least 50% of the artistic value of "Mein herz brennt"... That said, even losing 50%, the artistic value of the piano voice version remains a small masterpiece... and this proves that "Rammstein" is truly an immense artistic phenomenon!!
nota bene: the understanding of the lyrics also brings enormously... and this is valid for all the songs of "Rammstein" because they are born storytellers...and their stories very often have a deep meaning
In my opinion both tell diffetent stories, so even tho in this one you dont see the background story you can focuss more on the lyrics and see it more like a tale of the sandmann (the german childrens programm to send them to bed with stories) but its about the part of the sandman that sends nightmares and not sweet dreams, thats why his heart is burning cause he causes suffering and is addicted to the tears of the kids (at least thats my interpretation)
@@MrHeiner96 Yes, I understand you... that said, this "T"-shaped pool is still a crucial element in this story !!!
@@MrHeiner96 wo ist denn die Sandmannverbindung ? Ich höre es nicht und ich habe auch Sandmann als Kind geschaut
@@huba3885 According to the countries and the legends, the sandman is either a positive character (he puts the children to sleep calmly) or a negative character (he comes to disturb the children in their sleep) this last interpretation is more valid for Germany...You know "rammstein" has the art of deceiving his little world ... so negative or not this sandman ... I would rather incline for the positive version, but that's just my interpretation!
No, educated people can handle it. 🤣
Ironic you said you'll be listening for a voice coming through your pillow. look at the english translation of these lyrics and you'll see why hahahaha
Exit Sandman
If you feel there's no justification for commenting on Rammstain currently, I get it. I think there is still a lot of merit to "Ohne Dich
If you would like to react to an artist you might not have heard of before, I recommend Aesthetic Perfection with the song Mourning Doves
Thanks for the suggestion, I’m always on the hunt for “fresh blood” ha ha! 👍
the original version is so much better, but still good
Welcome to traditional European fairytales.
Oh, you will be scared. This is not a ballad.
Frühling in Paris, Diamant, and Stirbt Nicht vor Mir are ballads.
Yes you were. That was entertaining. If Till was The Joker Batman would poop himself.
Oh BTW, the wounds are real. He made them himself, you can see the scars in later concerts.
“If Till was The Joker, Batman would poop himself…” 😹😹😹👍 omg about the wounds though 😖
@@YourOnlineSingingCoach yes. He is very much the classical "hurting poet" of German tradition. Which is a bit sad, for he seems like a good man who loves children and animals.
